Chapter 35 - Twinkling Stars

Chapter 35 - 34: Twinkling StarsYe Qiu and Li Yan stood in front of a cliff on a high mountain, with rolling mountains in the distance, stacked and splendid under the glow of the setting sun, captivating!

"This place is really beautiful!" Li Yan, mesmerized by the scene ahead, couldn't help but exclaim.

Watching the beautiful scenery and beauty in front of the camera, the photographer behind was also dazed for a while, thinking that after this episode, this place would definitely become a flourishing tourist attraction.

The village used to be inhabited, although the villagers had moved down the mountain many years ago, the fruit trees and vegetable fields left behind still provided plenty of food, and due to the sparse population, wild rabbits and wild chickens could occasionally be seen nearby.

Compared to the previous two times, this time, both the food and accommodation were less worrisome than before.

Since it was close to nightfall and there was no time to make hunting tools like bows and arrows, Ye Qiu and Li Yan set up a few small traps on their way back. Passing by a hillside, they had also gathered lots of chestnuts and jujubes, and found sweet potatoes behind the house, which made up their dinner for the day.

Lin Feifei's emotional intelligence was obviously higher than Xiang Yu's, even though she harbored hostility towards Ye Qiu and Li Yan, she was the first to take the food when they brought it back, and with a tone of gratitude and excitement said: "Sister Teacher and Sister Yan are really incredible, roasted sweet potatoes and chestnuts must taste amazing!"

"Hmm... It's been a long time since I've had roasted sweet potatoes, I really miss them!" Lin Cheng is an honest person, not used to complex schemes in his daily life, seeing Lin Feifei eagerly working today, his favorability towards her was very high, in just an afternoon, under Lin Feifei's deliberate approach, their relationship had already grown quite strong.

"Then I'll do the roasting!" Lin Feifei, as usual, eagerly took on the task.

Hearing this, Ye Qiu generously gave her all the remaining ingredients from her pocket.

"You've got it tough." Li Yan smiled, not minding at all that her words might cause netizens to criticize her.

Xiao Hua looked at the three women, feeling some undercurrents among them, but decided to keep out of it and went with Yi An and Bo Rong to arrange the beds for the night.

On the other side, Xiang Yu frowned slightly, seeming reproachful as he glanced at Ye Qiu and Li Yan, then appeared cheerful as he smiled at Lin Feifei: "Then I'll help you."

Outside of the network, the netizens were indeed surprised by Ye Qiu and Li Yan's actions, because based on the first two episodes, neither of them seemed to be the type to bully newcomers.

Meanwhile, Lin Feifei's fans were upset, thinking Ye Qiu and Li Yan were ostracizing their Fairy Lin Feifei, who was so hardworking and kind – those two women must be worried about their own positions being threatened!

Suddenly, messages about Li Yan and Ye Qiu being divas and bullying newcomers spread all over the internet.

On the other hand, the fans of Li Yan and Ye Qiu were unhappy, asking how their idols could be labeled as divas and bullies – wasn't Lin Feifei the one eagerly volunteering? Plus, roasting a few sweet potatoes was simple, just put them in the fire, what was there to tire them?

Fans labeled Lin Feifei as a scheming woman in their hearts, hadn't they forgotten how Lin Feifei had stepped on their idols to climb up previously? They had seen Lin Feifei's performance today, seizing every opportunity to show her capability – was this showing off her versatility or acting as if she's the only one around?

A war of words quickly spread online, fans from both sides refused to back down, and bystanders were also confused, wondering who was right or wrong?

At night, everyone gathered around the campfire, each person holding a stick, stirring chestnuts in the fire, the bursting sounds continued.

Li Yan sniffed, drooling as she looked at the pile of chestnuts in front of Ye Qiu, so fragrant!

Funny how it's the same fire, yet Li Yan always thought the ones roasted by Ye Qiu smelled the best!

"Burned again!" Bo Rong exclaimed annoyed, throwing down his stick, his eyes eagerly fixed on his little junior sister, pitifully saying: "Little junior sister, share some with me!"

"This is mine." Li Yan, like a little wolf cub guarding her food, glared fiercely, no matter that he was an idol!

"This is my little junior sister." Bo Rong retorted coldly, unyielding.

Yi Anhe and Xiao Hua watched with interest from the side, without interjecting.

Lin Feifei looked left and right, and then timidly said: "Brother Bo, Sister Yan, I have plenty here, please stop arguing."

Hearing this, Bo Rong and Li Yan exchanged glances, and Bo Rong said with a smile, "Thank you for that, but I still want to eat what our junior sister prepared."

Seeing Lin Feifei looking a bit embarrassed, Lin Cheng laughed and intervened to smooth things over, "Feifei, don't mind them, these two always compete for whatever Ye Qiu makes."

"If they don't eat it, I will. It's perfect since mine got burnt too," Xiang Yu added immediately, feeling he was right about Ye Qiu, who is nothing but a selfish, cowardly scoundrel. Lin Feifei, despite being her school junior, spoke kindly for her but got totally ignored.

After hearing this, Lin Feifei felt silently furious.

She was actually trying to help Brother Bo, why didn't he appreciate it at all? And Yi An, isn't he always the good guy of the entertainment industry? Was her performance today not good enough? Why wouldn't he speak for her as well?

Is it really because she has no background, so they all look down on her?

What about Ye Qiu? What does she have? Just her face, or a financial backer behind her?

If it wasn't for that face...

Lin Feifei's thoughts wavered, scared yet thrilled by her own ideas.

"I'll go get some more water." Getting up, Lin Feifei lowered her head to look at Ye Qiu's radiant face under the dim firelight, her eyes sharp with determination, a voice inside her incessantly telling her that destroying Ye Qiu would make everything hers!

This is a good opportunity, in front of so many cameras, no one would believe it was intentional.

Afterward, as long as she apologizes sincerely, she believes the netizens will forgive her, and furthermore, more people will get to know her...

Lin Feifei walked out with complex thoughts, Ye Qiu turned her head and glanced, her eyelids drooping, what exactly was Lin Feifei planning to do?

Watching Lin Feifei approach with a full bucket of water, Ye Qiu tensed up.

"Let me help you with that," Lin Cheng stood up.

Lin Feifei thought to herself, just as she expected, he wouldn't just stand by and watch her struggle.

"No need, no need, it's not very heavy." Lin Feifei said, holding the bucket with both hands, she dodged Lin Cheng's outstretched hand, but because she was unsteady, she fell straight towards Ye Qiu.

Right in front of Ye Qiu was the blazing bonfire, just a push and her face...

Lin Feifei, with eyes closed and eyebrows furrowed, cried out loudly, "Be careful."

Seeing herself about to fall on top of Ye Qiu, she couldn't help but curl her lips upwards.

Then, to the horrified looks of everyone, Ye Qiu swiftly twisted her upper body at an incredible angle towards the direction of Li Yan to avoid her.

Her lower body was still heavily pinned down by Lin Feifei, a bucket of water pouring over, soaking both Lin Feifei's head and hers. Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
