The audience in the live broadcast room was dying of laughter, never expecting to witness celebrities tearing each other apart on a variety show.
[Hahaha, are we even supposed to see this?]
[Jian Tiantian, I’m waving a big flag for you today! If you can talk the talk, then keep it coming!]
Actually, Jian Tiantian was really furious, which is why she blurted out that remark.
She discovered the incident the night before last when she was extremely hungry and couldn’t sleep because of it. But she was afraid of disturbing Huo Miao’s rest, so she dared not turn over or make any movements. Little did she know, Huo Miao wasn’t asleep either, and had quietly gotten up to eat something.
Jian Tiantian was both shocked and angered at the time, but she held back the urge to expose the incident. She was aware that Huo Miao had Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan backing her, while she was all alone. More importantly, Jian Tiantian wasn’t sure whether the food Huo Miao ate was provided by Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan. Making a fuss about it wouldn’t be to her advantage.
It wasn’t until she spoke up and saw the look of astonishment on the faces of Mu Mingxuan and Huo Ziheng that Jian Tiantian felt some satisfaction. So they knew nothing at all!
Indeed, Mu Mingxuan and Huo Ziheng knew nothing, and both turned their heads to look at Huo Miao.
Jian Tiantian’s words were like a bolt from the blue, not just to the other guests but to Huo Miao herself, who was stunned.
She never expected Jian Tiantian to have been awake!
Huo Miao’s demeanor turned frantic, and her voice became strained with an obviously guilty undertone, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Whether I’m talking nonsense, you know it yourself," Jian Tiantian pretended to move closer, "If you dare, take out everything from your backpack for us to see."
Huo Miao, thinking Jian Tiantian was serious about doing so, immediately grabbed her backpack and clutched it protectively.
By then, Huo Miao had also realized what was happening and sought refuge behind Mu Mingxuan, exclaiming, "Don’t even think about stealing my stuff!"
Mu Mingxuan, with one arm around Huo Miao, shielded her in his embrace and directly spat out a single word at Jian Tiantian: "Scram!"
No matter whether Huo Miao had sneaked food or not, in Mu Mingxuan’s heart, she was his fiancée, the one he had sworn to protect since childhood.
If it wasn’t for Mu Mingxuan and Huo Ziheng, Jian Tiantian would have definitely tried to snatch and grab half of the stuff from Huo Miao’s backpack.
But with Mu Mingxuan and Huo Ziheng protecting Huo Miao, advancing any further would make her seem quite foolish.
Jian Tiantian raised a hand to wipe away her tears and walked off furiously to one side.
[Suddenly, I feel those three are being too much]
[Indeed, Jian Tiantian is innocent. If Huo Miao hadn’t thrown stones at that monkey, none of this would have happened, and they wouldn’t be facing the monkeys’ revenge.]
[Not just Jian Tiantian, but Yuan Wei and the others are also innocent in this matter, having been beaten for no reason.]
[Just now, many of their belongings were stolen by the monkeys, how are they going to manage?]
[They should ask Huo Miao for compensation!]
[As if Huo Miao will pay a dime. When Jian Tiantian just asked for compensation, Huo Miao acted as if her life was being demanded.]
[In this situation, it’s not that the others don’t want to, but rather that they know Huo Miao won’t pay and can’t pay anything...]
The audience guessed right; Ling Bo, Yuan Wei, and the others had also thought about seeking compensation from Huo Miao and Mu Mingxuan. But given the circumstances, where everyone’s supplies and food were already scarce, and the recent attack by the monkeys only worsened the situation.
Even if they wanted Huo Miao to pay up, she likely had nothing to offer.
Disbanding the team was also a way for them to express their dissatisfaction.
After everyone dispersed into small groups, Huo Miao finally remembered Huo Ziheng, who had been protecting her all along.
Holding Huo Ziheng’s clothes, Huo Miao went behind him and was horrified, "Second brother, you’re so badly hurt!"
"Can you even wear clothes?" Huo Miao bit her lip hesitantly, looking unsure.
At that moment, Huo Ziheng was numb with pain and felt somewhat cold, possibly due to the mountain air’s chilliness. He nodded, "Better put them on."
Huo Miao bent down to help Huo Ziheng with his shirt, and as she watched his torn and bloody back slowly get covered up, reflecting on how he was injured protecting her, Huo Miao knelt down, feeling guilty, "I’m sorry, second brother."
Huo Ziheng lifted his hand to rub Huo Miao’s head, and just the effort of that small gesture made him wince in pain, "It’s okay, I know you didn’t mean it earlier, but next time, you can’t be so reckless."
