After waiting for a while, Yan Yaoyao didn't see any emotion on her face.
Yan Qiao shook her head. "No need, thank you."
Yan Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she hadn't taken it, otherwise she would have gone hungry that night.
Her obvious relief made the live stream chat erupt in laughter.
[She wants to create a persona but doesn't want to put in the effort. Doesn't Yan Yaoyao feel ashamed?]
Yan Yaoyao, of course, didn't know her face hurt, because she didn't have an omniscient perspective.
She thought Yan Qiao was just putting on a brave face and hadn't eaten lunch. Seeing her instant noodles, she must be really craving them.
"Yan Qiao, you don't actually think your bamboo cage can catch shrimp, do you? Teacher Jin said shrimp aren't that easy to catch. You should eat my instant noodles instead. I ate half a pack at noon, it should last until tomorrow."
Yan Yaoyao looked like she was sacrificing herself to please her.
The fans in the live stream fell silent, wishing they could jump out of the camera and cover her mouth.
Yan Qiao replied with the same words: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary."
Yan Yaoyao frowned, feigning sympathy: "Alright then, looks like you're going to go hungry today."
Yan Qiao curled her lips slightly, walked past her, and headed towards the direction where she had put her cage.
The people in her live stream were equally nervous, eagerly anticipating Yan Qiao's bamboo cage.
Ruan Cha, harboring a mischievous intent, walked up to Yan Yaoyao.
"Yaoyao, do you know what Yan Qiao ate for lunch?"
Yan Yaoyao was taken aback. "Did she eat something for lunch?"
"She ate a lot. She was lucky; she found a lot of seafood outside, including octopus. She ate her fill."
Yan Yaoyao: "!!!"
What was she doing just now? So embarrassing!
Seeing Yan Yaoyao's constipated expression, as if she wanted to disappear into the ground, Ruan Cha asked in confusion, "Yaoyao, what's wrong?"
Yan Yaoyao almost questioned her existence, shaking her head in a daze.
"nothing."
The live stream was filled with laughter.
[Cha Cha, you should spoil her. You even went to tell her the truth.]
On the other side, Yan Qiao had already picked up the bamboo cage.
She rolled up the long vines, and gradually, the bamboo cage floated up, revealing its true form.
[They're up! They're up!]
Why are you all so excited? If you could catch shrimp with just a simple trap, everyone would be doing it.
6. If you're so capable, why don't you just make a cage like that and show it to me!
Although Yan Qiao's bamboo cage was crudely made and not made with much care, it still required a certain skill, and not everyone can make it.
Yan Qiao picked up the cage, but instead of checking it immediately, she kept it a secret and slowly carried the cage back home.
【Ugh, why isn't she watching?!】
[Damn it, what's the difference between this and bringing home a bunch of packages and not opening them!]
Yan Qiao curled her lips into a smile, clearly in a good mood, which whetted their appetites.
Let them hurl insults in the live stream, just wait and see.
No matter how much the people in the live stream shouted, Yan Qiao couldn't see it.
Ruan Cha was the first to see Yan Qiao return, and she quickly ran up to her.
Her reaction was the same as those netizens'; she asked the question they most wanted to know.
"Yan Qiao, did you catch any shrimp?"
Yan Qiao smiled and said, "I don't know either, I haven't seen it yet."
Ruan Cha: "...How did you manage to resist watching?"
Yan Qiao patted the cage. "I want to go back and look at it again."
In other words, even if Ruan Cha asked, she didn't intend to open it to take a look.
The viewers in the live stream were furious, wanting to see if any shrimp had been caught while secretly threatening to leave the live stream.
Yan Yaoyao interjected, "If you ask me, Yan Qiao, you didn't actually catch any shrimp, did you? You're just keeping us in suspense."
Yan Qiao raised an eyebrow. "It's okay. Even if we don't catch them, we won't ask you for half a pack of instant noodles."
The awkwardness from before was brought up again by Yan Qiao, which made Yan Yaoyao dig her toes into the ground again.
Yan Qiao stopped arguing with her and carried the cage back to the camp.
Ruan Cha couldn't help but follow, her expression mirroring that of the viewers in the live stream.
Yan Qiao found a rock to use as a low stool, sat down, and slowly untied the funnel-shaped lid on top. Looking inside, she saw the still-wriggling shrimp.
"Ruan Cha, bring me the bamboo basket."
Ruan Cha made two "oh" sounds and walked over with her basket.
Yan Qiao turned the cage upside down, patted the bottom, and emptied the contents out.
Ruan Cha was practically the mouthpiece for netizens, screaming, "Wow! There really are shrimp, so many! Teacher Jin, are shrimp really that stupid?!"
Her words immediately reminded everyone of Jin Wenxian's previous mockery of Yan Qiao.
Jin Wenxian originally wanted to remain silent, refrain from expressing his opinions, and try to make everyone ignore what he had just said.
Unfortunately, I got mentioned by Ruan Cha, and my face really hurts.
Now he couldn't pretend he hadn't seen it.
Jin Wenxian walked over and took a look, then exclaimed in surprise, "Yan Qiao is really amazing! She actually has shrimp, and quite a lot of them."
He was actually a little envious; these shrimp were quite large, some as long as his palm.
Fresh shrimp, even without oil or salt, can provide protein when eaten as is.
Yan Qiao raised an eyebrow. "Not bad. Looks like my brain is still a bit smarter than these shrimps."
When the topic was brought up again, Jin Wenxian could no longer laugh.
My face hurts.
"You guys are busy, I have other things to do."
They slipped away and made a quick getaway.
Yan Yaoyao bit her lip, her jealousy and hatred almost overflowing.
She suddenly laughed and winked mischievously, "Yan Qiao, this bamboo cage is so useful, why don't you make one for us too?"
Ruan Cha frowned. What a big face.
This is a reality show, and even more so a competition. Why should anyone help you?
Yan Qiao smiled and agreed, "Okay."
Yan Yaoyao's eyes lit up. "Really?"
“Really?” Yan Qiao’s eyes crinkled into a smile. “Five hundred yuan a cage, first come, first served.”
Yan Yaoyao: "..." It's only the first day, and everyone's money has been used up to buy supplies. Where would they get the money to buy cages?
She said unhappily, "If you don't want to give it, fine, but why are you joking with me?"
"Didn't you start the joke?" Yan Qiao retorted.
Let her work so hard to weave a bamboo cage for everyone; we treat her like a philanthropist.
Yan Yaoyao looked embarrassed and quickly turned to leave.
[Yan Qiao is so stingy.]
It's just a bamboo cage, what's the big deal?
[Aren't you all supposed to lack moral values? Although I don't like Yan Qiao either, I'm on her side this time.]
[The bamboo cage is nothing special, why did Yan Yaoyao just ask for it? Isn't that moral blackmail?]
[She's so stingy! She's just so stingy, she has absolutely no spirit of helping others!]
Then, Yan Qiao counted the shrimp; there were about twenty of them.
She took half of it, rolled it up in a banana leaf, and handed it to Ruan Cha.
"Here, have some."
Ruan Cha curled her fingers up and asked in surprise, "Am I supposed to eat this?"
"Here you go, eat it yourself, don't give it to anyone else."
The "others" here, of course, refers to Zang Mingqi.
