Cynthia gave a rather long distance; the van drove for a full six hours from the bustling CBD out of the city, from high-rise buildings to detached houses, then to plains, and finally to the wilderness.

As you drive further ahead, the road becomes increasingly narrow.

If Xiaoxi hadn't known beforehand that the filming was taking place in a wild forest, she would have thought that the other party had tricked her and Wenli into coming here to have their kidneys cut off.

The wide road turned into a muddy dirt road, and after a shaky ride, we finally arrived at the base camp designated by Cynthia.

Cynthia ran over enthusiastically. Just then, the door of the tall van opened, and Cynthia quickly opened her arms: "Wen! I've been waiting for you..."

Before she could react, a figure flashed past her like lightning.

Wen Li leaned against a tree, her face pale, and vomited...

The journey from the bustling city to the edge of the forest took six hours, two of which were spent on a bumpy ride.

After Wen Li finished vomiting, Cynthia apologized to her, saying, "Wen Li, I'm so sorry."

Wen Li quickly waved her hand: "It's okay, I just ate too much at noon."

After Wen Li rinsed her mouth, Cynthia noticed that her complexion had improved considerably, so she led Wen Li into the base camp.

The location where they filmed was a world-renowned tropical rainforest, attracting many hikers and adventurers every year. As a result, there was a ring of accommodations around the area, and Cynthia booked a top-tier suite for Wenli.

"Wen, you should have memorized the script by now, right? Get a good rest tonight, and I'll introduce you to the other actors tomorrow."

After saying that, Cynthia's expression became more serious: "Although we are friends, our theme this time is wildlife conservation, which requires us to be able to endure hardship. I am very strict when filming."

“I know. My agent told me that without your invitation, I might not have been able to open the door to the film industry in the future. I will definitely cherish this opportunity and will do whatever you ask me to do.”

Cynthia smiled.

She really liked Eastern girls, especially well-behaved girls like Wen Li.

Moreover, she inquired with directors in China and learned that although Wen Li had few roles, she was definitely capable of enduring hardship.

As long as you can endure hardship and don't cause trouble, Cynthia can tolerate everything about Wenlidi.

She told Wen Li to go back to her room to pack up first. When the sky turned blue, Wen Li and Xiao Xi went out for a meal.

The next day, the translator and part-time assistant that Cynthia had arranged for her knocked on Wenli's door.

Wen Li quickly got up, tidied herself up a bit, then went to the restaurant for breakfast before heading to the designated location.

The filming of "Law of the Jungle" required venturing deep into the rainforest. With more people involved, there was a greater chance of unexpected accidents. Therefore, Cynthia first gathered everyone together, with the actors walking in the middle and professional guides surrounding them from all sides.

To Wen Li's surprise, she ran into an old acquaintance here.

When an Asian girl walked to the center of the group, Cynthia excitedly introduced her to Wen Li: "Wen, let me introduce you, her name is Si Ran, and she used to be an actress in China."

Wen Li looked at the girl in front of her, who was wearing a red windbreaker and black pants. Her fair and slender neck was exposed, her skin was as delicate as snow and jade, her face was bright and beautiful, and she didn't look very old.

But none of these are the most important things.

Most importantly, Wen Li recognized Si Ran in front of her.

“I know her,” Wen Li suddenly said.

Cynthia paused in her introduction, but after thinking about it, she wasn't surprised: "That's right, she's filmed movies in China before."

Wen Li shook her head. After entering the entertainment industry, apart from the homework assigned by Zhou Xingyun, she rarely learned about other celebrities.

However, Si Ran was an exception.

Netizens discovered that Si Ran, like her, had been lost at a young age, but unlike her, Si Ran's parents were obsessed with the fake heiress and ignored their biological daughter.

Si Ran accidentally entered the entertainment industry to pay for her postgraduate tuition, but the response was not good. Then one day, she suddenly realized something.

After saying goodbye to the haters and dealing with her own parents and fake heiress, she turned around and became a national wildlife conservationist.

Later, when a fire broke out in a forest park in Country Y, she went to the front line to pray for rain and fight the fire. She happened to see Si Ran leading sixteen other Chinese animal protection experts in the fire to try to survive.

The wild beasts captured across the mountains and fields all seemed to be led by Si Ran, who was like a god in the green forest.

Wen Li looked at Si Ran's face, which was bright and dignified. In terms of fortune, Si Ran was destined to have a difficult life, with no parents. She would face a life-threatening crisis at the age of eighteen. If she could overcome it, she would soar to great heights.

Now that Si Ran is full of vitality, it seems that she has already overcome the tribulation at the age of twenty.

Si Ran was very easygoing. Because she was two years older than Wen Li and was very familiar with the forest environment, she took great care of Wen Li on the way to the base camp.

Wen Li's English proficiency has greatly improved, and Zhou Xingyun has deliberately arranged English speaking practice for her. As long as the people around her speak slowly, Wen Li can roughly understand what they are saying.

Si Ran seemed very interested in Wen Li, and said in Mandarin on the way: "I have watched your variety shows before, and I have also watched your 'Qianshan Ling', which was very outstanding."

Si Ran's voice is very pleasant to hear. Unlike Wen Li's usual soft and gentle tone, Si Ran's voice is like a babbling brook in the mountains. It is gentle yet powerful.

Wen Li looked at Si Ran with some apology.

Although she knew Si Ran, she had never seen Si Ran filming a scene.

Wen Lidi's gaze was too direct. Si Ran smiled and said, "I left the entertainment industry less than a year after I entered it. Now I am occasionally active on Weibo, mostly to promote the protection of wild animals."

Si Ran is a public official in China, serving as the director of a zoo, but she spends most of her time rescuing wild animals.

Wen Li understood immediately: "So, is filming this movie also to promote wildlife protection?"

I thought it would be a definite answer, but after thinking for a moment, Si Ran suddenly said, "Not entirely."

Wenli:? ? ?

Si Ran readily admitted: "Zoos are too poor. Some wild animals do not meet the conditions for wild breeding and can only be kept in zoos, but the required environment and breeding costs are extremely high."

After a pause, Si Ran's voice suddenly brightened: "Director Cynthia offered too much money, I really couldn't refuse."

Wen Li was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "What a coincidence, me too."

The two then looked at each other and smiled.

Amidst the laughter and conversation, the team leader asked everyone to sit down and rest for a while.

Wen Li is simply physically strong, while Si Ran often traverses the mountains and fields. Sometimes, in order to do research reports, it is common for them to walk for several hours at a stretch. Moreover, their assistants carry all their things, so they are not tired at all.

Xiao Xi found a spot with moss to sit down, but before she could even sit down, she put her hands down to support herself.

However, instead of a sharp, hard stone, my palm felt a cold, rough yet slightly soft sensation.

Xiao Xi's face stiffened, and a vague sense of unease crept into her heart.

She turned her head and slowly looked down, only to see a bamboo viper's tongue sticking out and staring at her.

However, a figure flashed in front of Konishi even faster.
