Chaochao: "...?"
Shouldn't this be my expression?
How dare you steal my spotlight?
That's incredibly unsportsmanlike!
Even though the little monkey was "frightened," it didn't let go of the human baby's little hand.
Chaochao swallowed hard, then pursed her lips and glared back defiantly.
She wouldn't say a word before her brother arrived!
Two tiny creatures, almost the same height, stood silently by the fence, their similar little hands clasped tightly together, a picture of serene beauty. May their friendship last forever.
System: Stop! You've switched to the wrong channel, sorry.
In this stalemate where neither side was willing to back down, Chaochao keenly sensed that the little monkey's gaze had shifted downwards and landed on the steamed bun in her hand.
“…”
Two seconds, four seconds, six seconds.
Finally, it was Chaochao who spoke first:
"...Do you want to eat steamed buns?"
The little monkey actually nodded.
That's true, you need to be well-fed to have the energy to make a living.
Chaochao successfully convinced herself, completely forgetting who had just made the resolution not to utter a single word.
"Then let go of my hand first."
The little monkey tilted its head, its golden fur smooth and soft, shimmering like golden threads in the sunlight. It hesitantly let go of the hand, then timidly clutched the hem of the human cub's clothes.
Chaochao completely let it be.
Through the plastic bag, she clumsily broke the remaining steamed bun in half, picked up a piece and handed it over, explaining, "This is all I can give you, my brother wants some too."
The golden monkey took the cotton-like object, carefully sniffed it under its nostrils, and then looked at Chaochao.
Even Chaochao seemed to become much more composed in front of the adorable little monkey. She nodded seriously and said, "It's delicious."
The golden monkey took a bite as instructed, while simultaneously holding Chaochao's free little hand.
"Hey... Dad... Ah... Did my dad get out... Insurance..."
From the nearby woods, Leo's heartfelt cries echoed faintly; Leo had come from afar to rescue his father.
But it was as if they had agreed beforehand.
From the rear of the camp, a gruff male voice boomed: "Ah!"
The little monkey, which had been stuffing its mouth with food, was terrified by the sudden commotion, and its fluffy long tail immediately straightened.
It looked at her and whispered, "Chirp."
Then, with the last bite of steamed bun in his mouth, he leaped away and quickly disappeared into the forest.
In the blink of an eye, Chaochao was left standing there all alone.
The system couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: This formula is so familiar...
Soon, it hesitated and said, "...Baby?"
The little dumpling, who hadn't uttered a sound for a while, lay face up and chuckled happily a few times:
"It said we'll play together again later!"
She's a beautiful little monkey who's polite and knows how to socialize!
Chaochao recalled with some regret that she shouldn't have been cold to it; she should have touched its little paws more often—they were so soft and cute.
Chaochao was still savoring the moment when the assistant director, upon returning to his seat and looking at the monitor, was utterly devastated!
"Ah! Ah? Ah!!"
What is that?! Where did this monkey come from?!
The area was clearly cleared out beforehand!
It must have been Leo who transformed, right?!
Sihou said goodbye for a while. As Chaochao turned around, she saw the assistant director running towards her, panting heavily. He must have run very fast, as his hands were trembling as he waved them.
The assistant director calmed down, cautiously looked around, and when he found that there was no sign of the monkey, he breathed a sigh of relief and almost burst into tears as he coaxed Chaochao back to the camp where there were more people.
The assistant director was overjoyed.
Thank goodness, God bless him, this little rascal wasn't hurt.
A wild protected animal and a domesticated ancestor—if either of them were to get hurt, he would be doomed.
A moment later, Teng Yi was also rescued from under the collapsed tent. Apart from his slightly disheveled hair and facial injuries, he was otherwise unharmed.
It was the last tent, and the adults, whose skills were gradually improving, quickly worked together to set it up.
When Chaochao came over and saw Jiang Chi, she held up the last small piece of steamed bun she had left.
The young man took off his gloves, bent down, and took the small bite.
They were completely unaware that something was wrong.
Seeing that the little boy seemed to be in a good mood, he smiled as well. "Did the deputy village chief come to see you just now?"
He noticed the assistant director rushing over and then returning looking completely exhausted.
What he really wanted to ask was, "Did you toy with someone?"
The little dumpling thought for a moment, then stared blankly at him:
"Did Uncle come to see me?"
She thought he was running laps for exercise and bumped into her.
"..." Jiang Chi looked at him with sympathy.
He decided to give the assistant director a nice look before dark.
The campsite fence is basically complete, the tent setup is successfully completed, and the fathers and children have finished their tasks.
Director Zou asked the adventure experts to score the performance of the five guests.
The expert pointed to Jiang Chi without hesitation, praising him for his outstanding performance, which was evident to all.
"He grasps the essentials and moves quickly; he's clearly experienced."
Chaochao patted his older brother with a look of satisfaction as he ate the treats that Director Zou had given to each of the children.
My brother's excellence needs no further explanation.
After pointing out Jiang Chi without hesitation, the expert looked at the other four people with hopeful eyes, his expression troubled.
The first place winner was undeniably impressive, while the others were roughly equal in strength. "..."
After a difficult decision, Hao Guoli came in second, Peng Peng third, Wu Shang fourth, and Teng Yi last.
No one disagreed with this ranking, as it was largely in line with the facts.
