Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

250, looking at the familiar scene, fell into deep thought.

Why does this feel similar to the hosts it used to guide? Is rescuing cannon fodder actually the same as a strategy mission?

That makes things easier. As long as Akahoshi can win over the cannon fodder, everything will be fine.

Without hesitation, 250 immediately pulled out his notes from previous quest guides and said, "Your Highness, I suggest you sleep in the same bed with him tonight. It'll help strengthen your relationship."

Akahoshi: [Is that so?]

250 firmly replied: "Yes."

Akahoshi had no suspicions; since they were planning to live together anyway, sleeping in the same bed should be fine.

"You found tents? Perfect, the seven of us can split up."

Annoying sounds came from inside, and Ji Shi was somewhat annoyed.

"This is the one we found first."

As he spoke, he took one tent for himself and gave the other to Zhang Wei, the only girl in the group.

"But the production team only provided these three tents. Are you expecting us to sleep without a tent?"

Seeing that they were about to start arguing again, Huo Yan felt exhausted. He said, "Can you give up one of your tents and I'll exchange water with you?"

He still had a few bottles of water in his backpack. Clean water is hard to find in this kind of place, and since it's a variety show, Jin Han and the others had no choice but to switch.

Having obtained the tent, Chi Xing was preoccupied with how to gain He Yuling's trust and didn't notice what was happening over there.

He Yuling pulled Chi Xing away from them, not wanting to have anything to do with them at all.

They didn't want to cause trouble, but someone just had to walk right into it.

"Yu Ling, how about we share a tent? We're quite familiar with each other."

Chen Xiyu believed that Chi Xing definitely wouldn't want to share a tent with He Yuling. Moreover, he wanted to be a control group with He Yuling; how could he not share a tent with He Yuling?

He Yuling almost rolled her eyes: "I don't know you."

"But...won't it be inconvenient for you two to live together? You've only just met..."

Seeing that he was about to spout nonsense again, Chi Xing pulled He Yuling a little further away: "There's no inconvenience, we're doing fine."

[Doesn't Chen Xiyu have any sense? Can't she see that they're getting along harmoniously? Why does she always go and make a fool of herself?]

[Chen Xiyu is so strange. I feel like he's been causing trouble for He Yuling the whole time.]

[Finally, someone else shares my opinion. There were rumors online that He Yuling bullied him, right? But I didn't see any bullying on the show. It was Chen Xiyu who seemed to be the one talking to He Yuling.]

"Right, right? I just felt something was off. I don't know if what's online is true or false, but He Yuling doesn't seem like that kind of person."

Some people raised questions, even mentioning Chen Xiyu. Her fans immediately began to defend Chen Xiyu, and their method of defense was to continue to slander He Yuling.

[He Yuling is definitely putting on an act in front of the camera; who knows how he bullies people in private? Xiaoyu is just worried that he won't be comfortable with Chixing.]

[Kindness taken for granted; He Yuling is truly ungrateful.]

Huo Yan walked over to Chen Xiyu's side, and seeing He Yuling's ungrateful attitude, he said to Chen Xiyu, "Xiaoyu, why do you have to say so much to them? We can live on our own."

Chen Xiyu was pulled along by Huo Yan and didn't keep up with He Yuling and the others. She felt resentful, and her face was on the verge of tears.

"I was just thinking that they might have conflicts, and if I lived with him, I could put up with it."

After saying that, he suddenly looked at the camera, as if he had just realized that he had said the wrong thing, and tried to make amends: "Sorry, I didn't mean to say that Yu Ling has a bad temper..."

His appearance softened Huo Yan's heart.

"You're just too kind. They don't care about you, so don't try to get involved. Come on, let's stay together tonight."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiyu's fair face immediately flushed red: "Well, okay."

"Now that we're not sharing a tent with them, surely nothing will happen and the tent will burn down, right?" Akahoshi said to 250.

250: [I'm not sure, but I'll keep an eye on him.]

In the original storyline, it was at this point that He Yuling's tent was burned down because Huo Yan and Chi Xing both wanted to sleep in the same tent as Chen Xiyu.

Huo Yan doesn't seem to like Chen Xiyu as much as he did in the original story, probably because Chi Xing didn't try to win her over.

Humans have a strange competitive spirit. When someone is competing for something, they feel they must get it. But if something already belongs to you, you won't cherish it as much.

Another reason is probably that there were no jealousy or rivalry scenes, and Huo Yan himself didn't feel any affection for Chen Xiyu.

In addition, Huo Yan and his group had been searching for food and tents along the way, and the half-pheasant they had traded with Ji Shi and his group was something they hadn't been able to get enough to eat. The two grown men hadn't had enough to eat at all.

With even basic necessities like food and clothing a struggle, the two naturally had no time for romance.

Huo Yan had no intention of burning the tent, but Chen Xiyu did.

As darkness fell, Chen Xiyu finally came up with a solution that would kill two birds with one stone.

If He Yuling's tent breaks, Young Master Chixing will definitely not be able to stand it and will come over to squeeze in with them.

At that point, he could say that the tent could only accommodate three people, leaving He Yuling to make do in the tattered tent for the night.

This method was perfect; it would both bring Chi Xing over and make He Yuling uncomfortable.

Taking advantage of the fact that she was out and the drone hadn't followed her, Chen Xiyu quietly walked behind He Yuling's tent.

He Yuling, who was processing the pheasants, was unaware of all this, but Chi Xing, who had 250, was.

Seeing that Huo Yan had already set up the tent, Chi Xing walked up behind Chen Xiyu and shouted, "What are you doing!"

Chen Xiyu was holding a burning branch in her hand, which she had obviously just taken from the fire.

He was startled; the tent was already on fire, and the drone following Akahoshi happened to capture the scene on camera.

Chen Xiyu realized this too, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes: "Ah! I, I didn't mean to."

"what happened?"

Chi Xing's voice was loud, attracting everyone's attention. Huo Yan was the first to rush over, worried that something had happened to Chen Xiyu.

When the group saw that the tent was on fire, they rushed over and used sand to put out the fire, but a large hole had already been burned in the side of the tent.

"What did we do to offend you? Why did you burn our tents?" Akahoshi asked angrily.

"I...I didn't..." Chen Xiyu hadn't expected her secret to be exposed and didn't know what to do.

"Don't tell me you didn't. I and the cameraman saw it all. Your excuses are useless." Akahoshi had no intention of letting him off the hook.

Huo Yan frowned, looking at Chen Xiyu with the same puzzlement.

Chen Xiyu sobbed, "Brother Yan, I really didn't mean to."
