After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows-Chapter 69: Didn’t Expect the Team Leader to be Jiang Lingxi

Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Didn’t Expect the Team Leader to be Jiang Lingxi

Having gone through such a thrilling event, not teaming up feels a bit unreasonable.

Xu Zhao, the oldest among them, looked at Jiang Xiyu and Yu Hui’s group in such a sorry state, plus the swamp ahead that almost fooled even him, sighed inwardly, and proactively offered an invitation to team up: "Why don’t we stick together from now on?"

Yu Hui was naturally a hundred percent willing. This incident really scared him. He thought the place the show found wouldn’t be too dangerous, yet barely halfway through, they encountered such a big crisis.

What’s more, ever since his goddess filter towards Jiang Xiyu shattered, he evaluated her only with a teammate’s gaze. He sincerely felt that teaming up with Jiang Xiyu was not only physically tiring but also mentally draining.

He even wanted to ask: Without any prior preparation, what mindset did you have to join this show? Did you just expect other guest teammates to take care of you?

He had kept this question in his mind for quite some time, holding back from asking it aloud.

But hearing Xu Zhao’s invitation to team up, he first looked at Jiang Xiyu, who was still trying hard to wipe off the mud from her face.

Jiang Xiyu wiped a bit of mud off her nose, lowered her eyes, and pressed her lips, feeling a bit hesitant.

Seeing Jiang Lingxi again this time, seeing the other person still hasn’t voluntarily given up and even seemed to be in better condition than herself, she was genuinely surprised and now felt somewhat embarrassed.

She especially couldn’t stand letting Jiang Lingxi see her in such a sorry state.

If it were just Xu Zhao, she would have agreed decisively.

But now there was also Jiang Lingxi and Jiang Kaiyuan, if they teamed up and traveled together, the audience would undoubtedly critique her and Jiang Lingxi.

The key is she’s so pathetic right now!

"We, we..."

Yu Hui saw her hesitant look, as if wanting to team up but hesitating, plus she glanced several times in Jiang Lingxi’s direction, and he understood what she was concerned about.

Looking at Jiang Lingxi sitting cross-legged not far away on the grass, teaching Jiang Kaiyuan how to weave vines into ropes, Yu Hui felt somewhat conflicted inside too.

Previously, he always couldn’t stand Jiang Lingxi, because what he often saw was her having a bad temper, acting arrogant and putting on airs in the show, delivering poor acting skills in dramas, and having scandals frequently exposed by paparazzi, causing public ridicule, especially when compared to the all-positive Jiang Xiyu, in his eyes, Jiang Lingxi seemed good for nothing but her looks.

But just now, he saw Jiang Lingxi run over here without hesitation, even ahead of Jiang Kaiyuan.

She would sternly advise the struggling Jiang Xiyu in the swamp to calm down.

She would toss the vines aside and strive to save people, those hands still red and raw as proof that she too went all out to rescue her opponent.

In contrast, Jiang Xiyu, who had just been rescued, previously pushed back when Jiang Lingxi advised her to calm down. Yu Hui convinced himself it was just due to Jiang Xiyu’s overly excited state that she said some tactless words, but now seeing her hesitating about teaming up out of concern for Jiang Lingxi, he really didn’t know how to excuse Jiang Xiyu anymore.

Was I really blind?!

Rubbing his eyes, Yu Hui interrupted Jiang Xiyu’s words, nodded towards Xu Zhao, and spoke, "Let’s go together. This incident was too dangerous, it’s safer to travel together."

Jiang Xiyu immediately clenched her fingers.

This was the first time Yu Hui interrupted her!

What did it mean? She didn’t want to think further.

When Xu Zhao looked over, she forced a smile, "I also think it’s better to go together."

"Then let’s set off now," Jiang Lingxi threw the half-woven vine rope to Jiang Kaiyuan, stood up, "Just now the photographer rushed to help rescue people and threw all the equipment on the way, let’s pick it up first, then find a way to bypass this swamp."

Jiang Xiyu instinctively looked at Xu Zhao and Jiang Kaiyuan, only to see them both deferring to Jiang Lingxi to arrange the schedule, she couldn’t help but be surprised again.

Is it because Jiang Lingxi is a girl that’s why she’s being spoiled, or...

The other possibility was something Jiang Xiyu was unwilling to think further about.

She woodenly stood up from the ground, glanced at her sticky and wet mud-covered body from the waist down, opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing, only bowed her head and followed silently from behind.

She originally wanted to suggest making a fire to dry the mud on her body so it could fall off sooner, but keeping it as it is might earn her some sympathy from the audience.

They might even criticize Jiang Lingxi for not being considerate of her.

But soon she didn’t have the time to think about these things anymore.

Because the pace of the people in front was really too fast!

Initially, Yu Hui slowed his pace deliberately to accommodate her, a female.

Now with pants and shoes several times heavier than before, even Yu Hui was slightly out of breath keeping up, let alone her.

After just a few minutes, she was already out of breath, her face flushed red.

She held back and held back, but still couldn’t help but shout to Jiang Lingxi walking at the front, "I can’t keep up, can you slow down a bit?"

At this point, they just reached where the photographer had put down his portable equipment. Taking the chance to pick it up and adjust it again, Jiang Lingxi paused, looked back, "We weren’t walking fast to begin with."

Jiang Xiyu: "..."

Damn, do you think I’ll believe that?

Xu Zhao looked around, "We still don’t know how big this swamp is and how long it’ll take to bypass it. To reach the destination within the set time, everyone should persist if possible."

With these two sentences, Jiang Xiyu’s suggestion to slow down was turned down.

Her just-cleaned face, with red-rimmed eyes, couldn’t help but tear up a bit.

Unfortunately, after Xu Zhao and Jiang Lingxi said these words, they started discussing how to survey the swamp, Jiang Kaiyuan continued weaving that rope, Yu Hui was also resting, her pitiful expression was only shown to the audience in the live broadcast room.

—"Isn’t this a bit too cold towards Jiang Xiyu? She just had a brush with death, can’t you accommodate her a bit?"

—"The kindness up front is commendable, but crucially, this is a ’Survival’ mission show, everyone is a guest here, not your caretakers. If you’re physically and mentally weak, why join such a tough endurance show instead of an easygoing one, isn’t there any self-awareness?"

—"Maybe sister just wants to prove herself."

—"But Jiang Lingxi proved herself, despite having poor acting skills and a bad reputation, she has nothing to be criticized for on this show, her performance can be called amazing. What did your sister prove? Her ability to drag others down?"

—"Why doesn’t Jiang Xiyu just give up voluntarily, before she was dragging down a duo, now I have a hunch, she’s about to drag down four more guest members."

—"Uh, before Yu Hui would accommodate her unconditionally, but now with Jiang Lingxi leading, even if she wants to drag behind, it seems hard to do."

—"Following closely... shall we place bets on how long Jiang Xiyu can last?"
