The live stream chat is now flooded with mockery.

"I'm dying of laughter. He said he would share some with his little sister Charlene, but it turns out he was the one who suffered the most."

"There's no need to be so sarcastic, is there? Who would have thought that those seemingly ordinary medicinal herbs would be so valuable? Laymen naturally wouldn't understand, and Lee Ji-eun meant well."

"Don't forget, was she being kind? She clearly looked down on Xia Lin!"

"Isn't that right? You might not have noticed the micro-expressions, but I quickly took a screenshot. Her eyes and expression at the time didn't look like she was there to show goodwill at all; on the contrary, she had malicious intentions."

"That's not true at all. All I saw on her face was scheming and hypocrisy."

"I saw it too."

There are many different opinions and discussions about this matter online.

Meanwhile, in Xia Lin's private group chat, this matter was also being hotly discussed.

"This Lee Ji-eun is still as scheming as ever, she's really annoying."

"The expression on her face when she couldn't hold it in just now almost made me die laughing."

"You can't be too polite to this kind of person. It's more satisfying to slap her in the face."

Jessica asked, "Why has Summer been missing for so long? Even if she's busy, she should have some time to check the news, right? I'm venting to everyone, but there's no one to listen!"

Hearing him say that, Jenny also found it strange.

Midsummer has indeed lost contact.

I sent her several messages yesterday and again this morning, but they all disappeared without a trace, and I received no response.

I wonder what she's busy with?

Is something wrong at school? Is she so busy that she doesn't even have time to reply to messages?

However, a night has passed, so we should be able to see the message by now.

Jenny's mind was filled with questions, but she couldn't find the answers.

……

At this moment, Charlene was completely unaware that someone was still thinking of her.

She was enjoying a delicious breakfast with Shi Ye at that moment.

The two of them ate and chatted in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

After breakfast, a new task was immediately assigned!

In fact, from the very beginning, this show was not just about simply completing tasks and having fun.

The reason why it was able to become so popular in a short period of time and maintain its high popularity is that the ultimate goal of the program is to promote charity.

Through a series of carefully designed tasks and activities, the program not only brought joy to the audience, but more importantly, it subtly conveyed positive energy, calling on everyone to pay attention to and participate in charitable activities.

This profound social significance is the key to the program's widespread recognition and popularity.

The director addressed the group, saying, "This mission is an orienteering competition. The production team has set up checkpoints on the island. Each group will follow the map and route, and the fastest group to reach the checkpoints will win. The production team will award prizes based on the rankings."

All of this money will ultimately be used to support disabled children in need, and in the process, promising young athletes will be selected and trained to become disabled cross-country athletes!

After announcing the rules, the production team added, "The island route has some obstacles."

This is not only to increase the fun of the competition, but also to test everyone's teamwork ability.

This is also the first time that team members are required to work together to complete the task.

In this process, we hope that everyone can help and support each other and demonstrate team spirit.

Now, please come forward to collect your items and prepare for the challenge!

The so-called props were a compass and a map.

Each map was identical, but it marked seven different routes, each corresponding to one of the seven groups of participants.

Although the number of checkpoints on each route is exactly the same, the actual route length and terrain difficulty vary, and these differences cannot be visually represented on the map.

Therefore, before setting off, each group needs to discuss and jointly decide which route to choose.

Once a choice is made, it cannot be changed.

After receiving the map, Shino walked to Xia Lin's side.

Charlene curiously leaned closer to examine the route on the map.

She observed for a while, but couldn't see any obvious clues or determine which route was shorter or easier to complete.

So, she could only look at Shi Ye and ask, "This... how do I choose?"

Tokino quickly scanned the routes on the map, then turned to Charlene and gently asked her, "Do you have a particular route you'd like to take?"

Charlene looked confused, let out a soft "Ah," and asked, "Can I choose any one?"

Shi Ye raised his lips and said, "It's not impossible, we can choose one that looks good to us."

Charlene was even more confused and couldn't help but mutter to herself: Is it even possible to do it this way?

But then I thought about it again and felt that something didn't seem quite right.

Shino's casual demeanor, seemingly nonchalant, subtly gave the impression that he had everything under control.

Charlene couldn't help but feel suspicious and looked him up for a closer look.

On Shi Ye's handsome face, his expression was calm and casual, even a little lazy, but he did not show any panic.

She subconsciously reached out and tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to come closer.

Shino paused slightly, seemingly surprised, but still obediently bent down slightly.

The two suddenly closed the distance without Charlene noticing, and she asked in a low voice impatiently, "Did you notice something?"

Shi Ye raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised that she had noticed something amiss.

He replied gently, "You could say that."

Charlene nodded in agreement, saying, "In that case, you can choose. You don't need to ask me which path I want to take."

As soon as she finished speaking, she found it a little funny herself and couldn't help but smile.

Who would be so casual during a competition, letting her choose a route based on her feelings and what looks good to her?

Tokino said, "It's alright, no matter which path we take, I can lead you to victory."

His voice was low and deep, like a whisper in her ear, carrying an undeniable certainty.

It was then that Charlene suddenly realized how close the man's profile was to her.

His well-defined jawline and prominent nose made him stand out.

The deep contours of his eyebrows and eyes, with their striking beauty, caught her eye without warning.

The black diamond stud on her earlobe gleamed with a cold light in the sunlight.

It complements his cool yet untamed temperament.

As he approached, a pleasant, faint, cool fragrance enveloped him, like the scent of cedar and mint intertwined, refreshing yet gentle.

Charlene felt her heart skip a beat.

My breathing became erratic, as if the whole world had quietly stopped at that moment.
