Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not far from their campsite on the island was a mountain that had caught the eye of Xia Xin and Jing Mo. They had decided to venture up its slopes to get a better understanding of their surroundings.bender

When they’d first disembarked from the ferry, they’d thought it was just another low-altitude mountain. However, up close, they found it imposing, its summit hidden from sight. Mist veiled the forest on its slopes, causing both of them to instinctively furrow their brows.

‘It’s dangerous,’ Xia Xin immediately thought.

“We shouldn’t go into the mountains. It’s not safe,” Jing MO warned, gripping Xia Xin’s arm and pulling her back.

“Where do you live?” Xia Xin asked the wolf pup.

The wolf pup let out a couple of mournful howls, a note of sadness reverberating in its voice.

“What’s the matter?” Jing MO inquired.

Shaking her head, Xia Xin sensed the wolf pup’s calls were an expression of longing for its family. It made her think of her own parents, leaving her with a sense of emotional heaviness.

“We should just walk around the perimeter. Let’s not go any deeper into the mountain,” Jing MO suggested.

The cameraman received directions from the director to push them further into the mountain, at least to the mid-levels. But Xia Xin was reluctant. Her gut told her that something perilous lurked within, an unsettling feeling that enveloped her entire being.

Exchanging a glance, both Xia Xin and Jing MO seemed to instantly comprehend each other’s reservations. They chose to ignore the cameraman’s instruction and continued walking around the outskirts.

Annoyed, the director grabbed his walkie-talkie to urge the cameraman to force them deeper into the mountain.

“I can see that it’s dangerous in there. I’m not risking my life for your TV ratings, ” Xia Xin retorted.

Her response left the livestream audience stunned. For a moment, the barrage of comments stopped as if the screen had been wiped clean. Then, a minute later, a flurry of questions aimed at the production team began to flood the chat.

[Oh my God, does the director even care about the artists’ safety?] [Even we can tell it’s unsafe in the mountains through the screen.]

[Look there, what a massive flower! It’s as tall as half a person. Could it be a man-eating plant?]

[Where, where? Does the man-eating plant have teeth?]

[Is the man-eating plant even the issue here? We should be discussing the danger in the mountain!]

[What is the production team doing?]

[Are they disregarding human lives for the sake of ratings?]

Frustrated, the director considered explaining that as long as they didn’t venture deep into the mountain, they would be safe. But before he could even pick up his walkie-talkie, a large hand pressed it down. Looking up, he met the eyes of Sun Hu.

With a wry smile, Sun Hu admonished, “You have to consider the artists’ safety.”

“My instructions were just to have them go up to the middle of the mountain, not deeper,” the director tried to justify himself.

Sun Hu didn’t want to hear any excuses. He had a bad feeling about all this. He had invited Xia Xin to join the show as its theme suited her public persona. Jing MO was merely an added bonus—he knew Jing MO had a soft spot for Xia Xin and thought this would offer them some quality time together.

An abrupt wolf howl interrupted Sun Hu’s thoughts. Turning his gaze to the live stream, he saw that Xia Xin and Jing MO were now confronted by a pack of wolves. Their eerie, green eyes filled him with dread.

“We need to rescue them,” Sun Hu urged.

“Don’t worry, Xia Xin will handle it. I trust her abilities,” the director assured.

Meanwhile, Jing MO and Xia Xin were facing down the pack of wolves. Jing MO had positioned himself protectively in front of Xia Xin and said solemnly, “If I tell you to run, you run.”

Shaking her head, Xia Xin intervened. “Big Brother, trust me, we will be fine.” Turning to the wolf pup nestled in her arms, she asked, “Is this your family?” The pup glanced at the pack and communicated, “Yes, the one leading them is my father.”

Xia Xin looked more closely at the wolves. They showed no signs of aggression; the alpha wolf even sat down, his front paws elegantly crossed in a signal of peaceful intentions.

“Is this your son?” she bravely stepped in front of Jing MO and spoke to the alpha wolf.

The alpha wolf responded with a couple of low howls. “Yes,” he seemed to say.

Though Jing MO noticed the wolves were not hostile, Xia Xin’s bold action still left him feeling incredibly anxious. “Are you sure it’s okay?” he whispered to her..
