The vicious female supporting role becomes the female lead

Under the cover of night, the light from the campfire danced within the cave, and the shadows of Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting swayed on the cave wall. Their voices were low and hopeful as they discussed their plans for the next day.

Chu Qiao said softly, "Zhengting, we have to make sure the message is eye-catching enough so that if anyone sees the sloth, they will immediately notice the mark we left."

Bo Zhengting nodded, his gaze remarkably firm in the firelight. "I'll write the message in bright colors so it's easier to spot. We also need to figure out how to secure the message to the sloth so it doesn't fall off easily."

Chu Qiao pulled a piece of string from her pocket and showed it to Bo Zhengting: "I found this. We can use it to tie the cloth strips together to ensure that the information is not lost."

Bo Zhengting took the string and examined it carefully. "This is good. It's strong enough and should be able to do the job. Tomorrow morning, we'll start."

The two men continued to discuss the details late into the night. They took turns keeping watch, ensuring the fire stayed lit while also alert for any unusual sounds. Though exhausted, their hearts were filled with hope and determination.

The next day, just after dawn, Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting were awakened by the singing of birds in the forest.

They quickly packed up their belongings, carrying the distress message and string they had prepared the night before, and quietly followed the sloth.

The sloth seemed to have no suspicion of the human pair. It moved slowly through the jungle, sometimes stopping to eat a few leaves before continuing on its way.

Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting followed carefully, trying not to disturb it.

After tracking the sloth for a while, they found it in an open area with some signs of human presence. Bo Zhengting signaled Chu Qiao to stop, and they began to tie a distress message to the sloth.

Chu Qiao approached the sloth cautiously, while Bo Zhengting stood guard nearby. She carefully tied a piece of cloth with "SOS" and their location written on it around the sloth's body, then secured it with a thin rope.

Bo Zhengting said softly: "Okay, Qiao Qiao, we're done. I hope this little guy can bring us good luck."

Chu Qiao stepped back a few steps, watching the sloth continue its journey, and silently prayed in her heart: "Go, little one, I hope you can take our message out."

The two returned to the cave, but they did not relax their vigilance and continued to look for other possible ways to seek help. They knew that one more plan meant one more hope.

Over the next few days, Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting continued to explore the island, looking for any possible resources and opportunities for rescue.

They built a larger signal fire with branches and leaves and arranged the word "SOS" on the beach with stones, hoping it would be spotted by passing planes or ships.

Despite the difficulties they faced, Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting never gave up hope. They believed that as long as they persevered, they would be able to find their way home.

The sloth that carried their call for help became their most special messenger on this deserted island.

As the sloth slowly disappeared into the depths of the jungle, Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting returned to their temporary camp and continued to discuss their next plan of action.

Chu Qiao looked in the direction the sloth had left, a hint of anticipation in her eyes. "Zhengting, we've done a great job. Now, we just have to wait patiently, hoping someone will see our signal."

Bo Zhengting nodded, his eyes revealing a hint of determination: "Yes, Qiao Qiao. But at the same time, we can't stop looking for other ways out. We must remain vigilant, there may be other opportunities."

Chu Qiao nodded in agreement. "I agree. We can set up more signal points on the island to increase our chances of being discovered. Perhaps we can find some high places and use mirrors or metal sheets to reflect sunlight as signals."

Bo Zhengting thought for a moment, then said, "That's a good idea. We also need to collect some food and clean water in case of emergency. Who knows when rescue will come? We must be prepared for a long wait."

Chu Qiao stood up and dusted herself off. "Then let's get started now. I'll check our traps to see if we've caught any small animals. You go gather some fruit and water. We also need to check the coconut trees to see if there are any ripe coconuts."

Bo Zhengting also stood up, his eyes full of determination. "Okay, Qiao Qiao. We will act separately, but we must stay in touch. If anything happens, use the whistle to notify the other party immediately."

The two of them quickly started to act. Chu Qiao checked the traps they had set earlier, while Bo Zhengting searched for edible plants and water sources in the jungle.

They all knew that survival was their most important task at the moment, but at the same time, they never gave up hope and were always looking for the possibility of returning home.

As time went by, Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting's life on the island gradually became orderly.

They search for new food sources every day, while also constantly updating and maintaining their distress signals.

They built a makeshift shelter out of branches and leaves and a simple stove surrounded by stones to cook food and keep warm.

As night fell, Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting sat by the fire, the flames illuminating their tired but determined faces. They discussed the day's achievements and pondered future plans.

Chu Qiao fiddled with the fire, making it burn brighter. "Zhengting, we found some new water sources today and also replenished a lot of food. I think our living conditions are slowly improving."

Bo Zhengting nodded, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. "Yes, Qiao Qiao. Our shelter is becoming increasingly stable. However, we cannot let our guard down and must continue to look for opportunities to seek help."

At this moment, an accident happened. Suddenly, a strange sound came from the jungle not far away, breaking the tranquility of the night.

Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting immediately became nervous. They quickly stood up, back to back, and looked around vigilantly.

Chu Qiao whispered, "Zhengting, did you hear that? What was that sound?"

Bo Zhengting gripped the stick tightly in his hand, ready for defense: "It sounds like some kind of animal, or..." Before he could finish his words, the figure of a large beast flashed from the darkness, its eyes flashing green in the firelight.

Chu Qiao said nervously, "It looks like we have a guest. Zhengting, we have to be careful. This could be a dangerous beast."

Bo Zhengting responded calmly: "Keep calm, Qiao Qiao. We have a fire, which is our advantage. Wild animals usually don't go near fire."

They quickly gathered some burning wood to use as a defense. The beast lingered at the edge of the firelight, seemingly assessing whether the two humans were easy prey.

Chu Qiao whispered, "We have to find a way to keep it from getting close to our camp."

Bo Zhengting nodded, his eyes fixed on the beast. "We can try to make some noise to make it feel threatened, and maybe it will leave."

They began to shout and bang the wood in their hands to make as much noise as possible.

The beast was startled by the sudden sound and took a few steps back, but still did not leave.

Chu Qiao looked at the beast nervously, her voice trembling slightly, "Zheng Ting, it doesn't seem afraid."

Bo Zhengting held Chu Qiao's hand tightly. His voice was firm and powerful. "Don't be afraid, Qiao Qiao. We will be fine. Remember, we are together. We can overcome anything."

At this moment, the beast suddenly let out a low growl, as if challenging the two humans.

Chu Qiao and Bo Zhengting knew they had to remain vigilant, as the night might be long, but they could not let fear take over. They would continue to fight, for survival, for hope.
