"You can't do this!"
Sister Zhou was anxious and wanted to step forward.
But someone was faster than her.
Just as Wang Jun's hand was about to touch the parachute, a hand grabbed him.
Zhou Niannian subconsciously looked over.
The man's face was pale, his forehead covered in sweat, and his lips were devoid of color.
Yet, he stood resolutely in front of her, blocking Wang Jun, who was trying to cause trouble.
This is—
Jiang Fan!
Zhou Niannian let out a soft gasp, covered her mouth, and stood behind Jiang Fan, feeling for the first time that his figure was tall and imposing.
The other viewers in the live stream were worried, thinking Zhou Niannian was really going to be robbed. Fortunately, someone appeared to help.
"You scared me to death. Watching a live stream is like watching a soap opera, my heart can't stop beating."
"This Wang Jun is really too much. Taking food and drinks is one thing, but he even wants to steal Sister Zhou's tent."
"No way, no way. There are clearly two, what's wrong with sharing one with our Brother Wang? So stingy."
"Exactly, they're stingy and don't even let us talk about it."
"Wait, isn't Jiang Fan still sick? What's the use of him coming out? He can't protect Sister Zhou either."
The bullet comments were lively. Compared to just watching one team struggle to survive, they preferred to watch these contestants clash.
Fight! Fight!
Whether it was Wang Jun's fans or Zhou Niannian's fans, they were all eagerly anticipating it.
Wang Jun, however, was stunned.
He had guessed that Zhou Niannian's teammate was in bad condition and couldn't appear.
Even if he did, with his strength honed by years of rural labor, the other party wouldn't be able to contend with him.
With such thoughts, he proceeded with his plan without any concern of it not going smoothly.
But who knew that Zhou Niannian's teammate would actually appear.
Looking like a weakling.
He inwardly sneered, but outwardly maintained a friendly demeanor, looking at Jiang Fan with a pitying gaze.
"Hey, little brother, Sister Zhou just agreed to let me have a parachute. What's your problem?"
"You already have two tents anyway, it's not too much to give me one, right?"
His gaze fell on Jiang Fan's hand.
His well-defined fingers were sweaty due to illness, making Wang Jun uncomfortable.
He tugged his hand back, but it wouldn't budge.
Hearing his shameless words, Zhou Niannian quickly peeked out from behind Jiang Fan and shouted indignantly.
"I didn't! You came to my camp and took everything! Now you want to take my tent, you're shameless!!!"
The more she spoke, the more wronged she felt.
The food she had painstakingly collected was being wasted just like this.
This person is despicable!!!
Zhou Niannian's words, however, provoked Wang Jun's anger.
He was clearly trying to shift the blame. With a furious expression, he glared at Zhou Niannian.
"Hey, why are you going back on your word?!"
"It was you who... Ouch!"
Before Wang Jun could finish his sentence, his hand was gripped tightly, and he felt a sharp pain.
The pain felt like it was spreading through his nerves to his brain, a gnawing, bone-chilling ache that made him stop speaking.
Jiang Fan glanced at Zhou Niannian, whose eyes were red like a rabbit's, and said in a cold tone.
"She said no."
"Can't you understand what people are saying?"
Suffering from a bad cold, Jiang Fan appeared extremely weak, but the discomfort also made his eyes sharper.
He looked like someone not to be trifled with.
And the force in his hand gradually increased, causing Wang Jun to let out cries of pain.
"It was... Ouch!"
"Yes, it was my fault. Let's just... leave it at that."
"I won't dare again."
Wang Jun had never experienced such pain.
He felt like his hand was about to be crushed!
He cried out repeatedly, begging for mercy.
Jiang Fan had no intention of actually hurting him. He let go of Wang Jun's hand as if he were throwing away trash.
Wang Jun, as if granted a great pardon, quickly clutched his wrist. He didn't even dare to pick up the bamboo tubes and fruits that had fallen on the ground, and stumbled into the forest.
Yao, who had been silent all along, merely watched all this, then glanced at Jiang Fan.
As their eyes met, Yao felt a chill run down his spine. He instinctively bared his sharp teeth, crouched down, and assumed an attacking posture.
Like a wild beast, he looked fierce and unapproachable.
Confirming that Jiang Fan wouldn't pursue him, he cautiously backed away and finally disappeared into the forest.
The departure of the two would not change anything for Jiang Fan.
Under the influence of his severe cold, his thoughts felt sluggish.
He turned his head to look at Zhou Niannian, his indifferent gaze making even Zhou Niannian tremble.
Then Jiang Fan's voice, slightly hoarse, said.
"I'm thirsty."
"Oh, oh, there's... there's still water."
Zhou Niannian quickly reacted, handed him the water that was still well-preserved, and carefully offered it to Jiang Fan.
She knew that she had passed her cold on to Jiang Fan last night, and felt a little guilty.
And he had stepped up for her even when he was sick.
This made Zhou Niannian feel embarrassed and also want to treat Jiang Fan even better.
"Do you want me to feed you?"
"...No need."
Jiang Fan took the bamboo tube, said thank you, and then drank it all in one go.
The refreshing water flowed down his throat, bringing new life to his dry throat.
The annoyance from being woken up was finally relieved, but his head still ached.
Watching Zhou Niannian and Jiang Fan in the camp successfully overcome this conflict.
The viewers finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wang Jun is really too much. If Brother Jiang hadn't intervened in the end, who knows what Sister Zhou would have suffered."
"You in the front, are you talking about that kind of bullying? Don't worry, if Sister Zhou had said a few more words, my Brother Wang would have let her off [winking face]."
"To make such vulgar jokes at a time like this is disgusting! What kind of streamer, with no manners at all."
"Just a disgusting man who bullies the weak and fears the strong. He was stopped by Jiang Fan and ran away like a defeated dog."
"What 'ran away like a defeated dog'? He's clearly not going to bicker with a sick person. Besides, he's sick, and about to be eliminated anyway. Why is he still hogging so many supplies?"
"Yeah, and what about Yao too? His teammate was being bullied, and he just stood by and watched. What was he doing at the end? It was so awkward to watch."
The audience was a mixed bag, with all sorts of people.
Before, it was just a small-scale spread. Once there were independent live streams, and fans of each streamer were funneled in, it naturally led to many disputes.
This was especially true for the pair of Wang Jun and Yao.
Many of Yao's fans came to support their new favorite streamer, but encountered Wang Jun's fans, who were constantly mocking them.
After all, he was an unknown person, usually silent, and his every action was like that of a beast, making people frown.
From this alone, he was enough to be criticized.
Luo Li was fiercely arguing with people online, but due to the sheer number of opponents, she found it difficult to contend.
"Wang Jun's fans... are truly detestable!"
