Her ears felt slightly hot, and she quickly looked away, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "Okay, then... this one will do!"

Shino nodded and chose one as Charlene suggested.

This interaction between the two was observed by Lee Ji-eun and Nika. The former's gaze was cold and her expression revealed a hint of displeasure and deep thought.

Nika seemed to realize something and gently pursed her lips.

It seems that what Lee Ji-eun said wasn't entirely false; there really is something off between Xia Lin and Shi Ye.

However, at this moment, in front of the camera, there was no way to say anything in detail, and all I could do was suppress my doubts and speculations for the time being.

Soon, the rest of the participants also chose their own routes and put on the safety equipment provided by the production team.

The competition then officially began.

Shino and Xia Lin set off quickly.

After all, it's an island, so the journey will inevitably involve traversing jungles, encountering streams and thorns along the way.

Therefore, the whole process not only tests an individual's physical strength and perseverance, but also requires mutual help and support among teammates.

On Tokino's side, he took the initiative to scout the way as soon as he entered the forest.

He moved nimbly through the trees, clearing obstacles in front of Charlene.

Charlene followed closely behind him, proceeding cautiously along the way.

The journey went smoothly for the first part. The two followed the markings left by the production team and soon found the first checkpoint, completing the task.

However, as they ventured deeper into the jungle, the route gradually became more complex.

Soon, they came to a river that lay across their path.

The river wasn't very wide, but the current was quite deep and rapid, with a loud rushing sound that added to its ruggedness.

On the river, there was only the trunk of a fallen tree, which happened to span between the two banks, becoming their only option.

Shi Ye grew up in a tribe and was always with nature. Climbing trees, wading through water, and traversing complex terrain were all very natural for him.

But Charlene was a little nervous and scared.

The tree trunk wasn't very thick; when you stepped on it, you could even feel it swaying slightly.

If you don't maintain your balance, you might lose your center of gravity and fall straight into the water.

As soon as Charlene stepped on it, her legs started to tremble uncontrollably.

She looked down at her feet and saw the rushing water flowing quickly past her, splashing water everywhere, creating a dazzling display of light and shadow that made her a little dizzy.

Tokino noticed her nervousness, turned his head and asked softly, "Is it okay?"

Charlene looked up, her expression showing some difficulty, her lips slightly pursed.

Upon seeing this, Shi Ye's lips curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile.

He held out his hand and said, "Give me your hand, and I'll take you there."

As Xia Lin looked at the boy's well-defined hands, her heart began to race, pounding with an indescribable joy and anticipation.

She slowly extended her hand.

Soon, she was grasped by a large, warm hand. The warmth from the palm was just right, comforting but not scorching.

She could still feel the slight calluses on his palms, rough yet real, as if silently telling the story of his daily life.

This is his hand when he holds the steering wheel.

Shi Ye gently took her hand, his fingers slightly tightening. That steady strength instantly spread throughout her body, filling her with a sense of security.

So this is what it feels like to hold hands with Shino-san.

Charlene felt a ripple of emotion welling up inside her, as if countless butterflies were fluttering in her chest.

She felt she was losing her composure; her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her breathing was a little unsteady.

But in front of the camera, she dared not show these emotions, and could only try her best to suppress them and pretend to be calm.

Only their clasped hands betrayed the fluttering and sweetness in her heart.

At this moment, the viewers in the live chat were also finding the two of them quite endearing.

So everyone started commenting, "These two... seem strangely sweet together, what's going on?"

"Ah! I thought I was the only one who felt this way and didn't dare to say it, but I didn't expect that everyone else felt the same way?"

"Aren't these two siblings? They'll eat anything and only get you hurt!"

"Isn't orthopedics more exciting and thrilling?"

"A sweet female doctor and a cool race car driver, don't you think this combination is amazing?"

"Stop talking, stop talking! If you keep going, I'll lose control of my hands and start editing all their sweetest moments together."

Actually, it's no wonder there's so much discussion online; the scene before us is just too beautiful.

The sun was shining brightly, and the surrounding scenery was picturesque, with green mountains and clear waters seemingly serving as their own backdrop.

The girl in the picture is youthful, sweet, and beautiful.

The boy, though seemingly indifferent, was actually very attentive and caring, holding her hand and helping her cross the "single-plank bridge".

The gentle sunlight enveloped the two of them, as if gilding them with a warm golden halo. The babbling brook at their feet created a breathtaking scene, exuding an indescribable sense of romance!

Even the production team and cameramen couldn't help but notice that they were a good match.

Behind the camera, the director watched this scene intently, his eyes gradually brightening.

He knew about the mid-term replacement of the player by Tokino.

The woman in front of me is supposedly not my biological sister.

The director secretly thought to himself: "Then, the promotional video, which sets the tone, should be fine, right?"

After all, the taboo incestuous sibling relationship is a perfect gimmick that can definitely attract a lot of viewers.

The viewership ratings would likely be many times higher than they are now, and it might even spark heated online discussions.

Moreover, there's absolutely no need to worry about going too far.

After all, the two of them don't seem to have any powerful connections or backgrounds, so even if they are questioned or attacked by netizens, they can only accept it.

The director's eyes gleamed with excitement as he thought of this, and he immediately instructed the cameraman over the walkie-talkie, "Capture as many heartwarming moments of the two interacting affectionately as possible; we can use them as footage later."

The cameraman didn't think much of it, assuming the production team wanted to market the sibling relationship.

He replied softly, "Understood."

He then began adjusting the camera angle, focusing more intently on capturing every subtle interaction between the two.

The director smiled and began to conceive the editing rhythm of the trailer in his mind.

He then said to the photographer, "Great, shoot it from this angle."

By now, with Shi Ye's help, Xia Lin had already walked more than halfway.

However, the further along the tree went, the thinner it became, making it even more difficult to survive.

With each step Charlene took, it felt as if she were walking on a knife's edge; she trembled and could barely move.

The force of both hands was almost entirely focused on Shi Ye, gripping him tighter and tighter, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead, and his breathing becoming rapid.

She had never experienced anything like this before, and she was genuinely terrified.
