The crew of the program were instantly dumbfounded.
This wasn't the first season of their show. Never before had any guest done something like this. All the previous guests had been the victims of their pranks; no one had ever turned the tables. Moreover, what she said made so much sense. It seemed that was exactly how the program's rules were.
However, since this was the first time such a thing had happened, no matter how they thought about it, they felt something was off.
Yuan Meng didn't care what was going on in their minds. She said to herself, "Since I haven't violated the rules, it's settled then. Ah, I'm so sleepy. I'm going back to sleep."
Then, they saw a slender woman leading a string of Huskies walking towards her tent.
The crew members looked at each other, but no one stepped forward to stop her. They just watched as Yuan Meng happily led a bunch of Huskies into the tent to rest.
The tents weren't very big. Yuan Meng and her Huskies occupied one of them. Yang Liu pitifully stared at the other tent.
Yuan Xingcheng was utterly speechless, but he still gentlemanly said to Yang Liu, "You can go and rest in the remaining tent."
Yang Liu had been trying to win Yuan Xingcheng's favor, so she naturally declined, saying, "No, that's your tent. If I go in, what will you do?"
"Oh, I'll just take a sleeping bag and sleep outside," Yuan Xingcheng replied absent - mindedly. He was puzzled. If he remembered correctly, his aunt was also a furry - animal lover, extremely fond of pets like cats and dogs.
Yang Liu wanted to decline further, but seeing that Yuan Xingcheng clearly didn't want to talk to her, she stopped. They had walked all day and found very little supplies. Coupled with the scare of thinking there were real wolves just now, she was already exhausted. Under the circumstances, she turned around and went into the tent to rest.
"Guys, it's showtime!" As soon as dawn broke the next day, Yuan Meng got up with a group of Huskies. Seeing the Huskies sticking out their tongues at her to curry favor, she couldn't help but smile.
Then, the group of Huskies started their journey of looking for supplies.
Seeing her with a bunch of Huskies, Yuan Xingcheng didn't say much and just followed her.
"I'll go with you," Yang Liu naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity. She said very tactfully.
That Yuan Meng was such a fool. She didn't even care about such a great partner as Yuan Xingcheng. Well, then don't blame her for not playing fair.
It was unclear whether it was because of the help of the Huskies or her natural good luck, but in just half a day, they found a large amount of supplies.
Carrying this pile of supplies, Yuan Meng pretended to be exhausted. The Huskies followed lazily beside her.
"Hey, I thought an uninhabited island would be really scary, but now it seems just so - so," Yuan Meng muttered. "This is so boring. They didn't even hide the stuff well. We found so much so easily. It's supposed to be an adventure variety show, but it's not fun at all. I might as well go home and sleep. Alas, I want to go home."
"Boring? You're just lucky. Look at us; we haven't found much," Yuan Xingcheng said angrily. Even though he had walked in front, he still missed out on so many things.
Yang Liu chimed in, "Right. It's almost become your solo show."
She was also angry. Along the way, she had been trying every means to talk to Yuan Xingcheng and even wanted to hold his arm sometimes.
But unfortunately, he had no affection for her and didn't even react. He put all his attention on Yuan Meng.
She didn't know what was so great about her.
Rustle.
A sound of rustling leaves came from the nearby forest, attracting everyone's attention.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the direction of the forest, their hearts in their throats.
Could it be that a wild animal was about to appear?
It seemed that God had heard their thoughts. The next second, a huge black bear emerged from the forest.
As soon as the black bear came out of the forest, its eyes locked onto the people in the area.
"Roar!"
With a roar, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
"Ah, a bear! There's a bear!" Yang Liu felt her legs go weak and quickly grabbed onto Yuan Xingcheng beside her. "Woo, there's a bear. Let's, let's run quickly. A bear of this size could swat us to death with one paw."
Yuan Xingcheng was also startled. Hearing this, he was about to nod when he noticed that Yuan Meng, who was leading the Huskies, was standing still.
"Sigh." Maybe she should just sacrifice herself and go home to sleep. It was getting boring here anyway.
Huh? At a time like this, she still had the time to sigh?
"Yuan Meng, don't just stand there stupidly. This is a bear. Let's run quickly," Yang Liu said when she saw that Yuan Xingcheng wasn't saying anything and was still looking at Yuan Meng.
"What are you afraid of?" Yuan Meng replied indifferently.
What are you afraid of? Lady, that's a bear! A bear! Do you understand? A bear that could lick off a large piece of flesh with one lick of its tongue.
Remembering what happened the day before, the two immediately realized that Yuan Meng probably thought this bear was also an arrangement by the program crew.
"Yuan Meng, I know what you're thinking. But yesterday it was at night, and Huskies look similar to wolves. It was understandable for the program crew to trick us. But it's daytime now. The program crew isn't that stupid to use the same trick twice," Yang Liu continued. "What if, what if it's really a bear? We can't afford to take that risk. If it charges at us, we'll all die here."
There was a hint of disdain in Yuan Meng's eyes. She thought Yang Liu was being really slow - witted. Didn't she even look at the program crew beside them? If there really was a bear, would the crew be so calm while filming?
Although the crew members looked terrified on their faces, as if things had gone beyond their expectations, the filming continued. That was enough to prove that this bear couldn't be real.
Otherwise, even if they weren't worried about the guests' safety, they would be worried about their own lives.
To be honest, the program crew was really boring. They probably thought others would assume they wouldn't use the same trick twice.
According to the program's rules, if she caught this bear, it would be hers.
"Should I catch it?" The bear was approaching them step by step. Just as it was about to intimidate them further, it heard this question.
Huh? The person who said this looked fair - skinned, cute, and innocent. But don't be deceived by this face. In fact, this person was nothing like how she looked.
The staff member inside the black - bear costume reacted faster than his brain. After hearing this, he turned around and ran away without a second thought.
