?51: Chapter 50: Encounter with Danger (1) 51: Chapter 50: Encounter with Danger (1) Zhang Chen has always been at odds with Xiao Chi, and now he bursts into laughter with a few wealthy young men.

Reverse psychology, very effective, Xiao Chi calmed down and walked with a few friends further inside.

Tang Xi quickly grabbed his arm, “Xiao Chi.”

She passed the map from her bag, “Take this with you.”

The situation inside was unknown, giving this to him would be helpful.

Xiao Chi nodded, “You wait for me outside.

If you don’t want to play here anymore, just go back.”

Watching Xiao Chi’s figure gradually disappearing into the jungle, along with Zhang Chen and those few wealthy fellows, the group of more than a dozen people dwindled by more than half, leaving only a few girls.

Sheng Muxin had rested and with some support, she was leisurely touring the surroundings, the girls mostly took out their phones to take pictures.

Someone approached Tang Xi and awkwardly muttered, “Sorry.”

Tang Xi, who was kneeling and organizing the medical kit, slowly lifted her head and recognized the young lady.

It was the socialite who had mocked her for carrying an ugly and heavy medical box before entering.

Tang Xi nodded faintly.

The socialite’s face flushed, and she then said, “I’m An Lan, thank you for your insect repellent.” Seeing Tang Xi continuing to focus on packing the medicine, An Lan quickly squatted down too, “What is this?”

Tang Xi followed her gaze, “This is a painkiller.”

“And this?”

Tang Xi, “This is for disinfection.”

Seeing that An Lan had not left, Tang Xi looked at her again, “Ms.

An, is there something else?”

“I…

uh…” An Lan coughed twice, then hesitantly said, “That…

the other night…

I didn’t mean to follow Su Mengshu and target you…

I’m sorry.”

So it was about that incident, Tang Xi knew there was no malice from her, she smiled a little, “I didn’t take it to heart.”

An Lan patted her chest and then Tang Xi’s shoulder, “From now on, you’re a friend of An Lan.

If you need anything, just tell me, I will definitely help you!”

Tang Xi looked at her eager righteousness and couldn’t help but laugh, “There’s no need for that.”

“Then you haven’t forgiven me!

I really didn’t mean to follow Su Mengshu against you!

It’s all Su Mengshu and that Xu Manxue, always talking about you behind your back…” An Lan bit her lip because the words were vulgar, “Anyway, it won’t happen again.

If your sister bullies you, just come to me!”

Tang Xi looked at An Lan’s sincerity, taken aback, “Thank you.”

An Lan blinked, “Thank me for what?”

The woman grinned, “Thank you for coming over and saying thank you.”

An Lan was outgoing, she found Tang Xi to be good-natured and knowledgeable, followed her around asking about this and that, and they exchanged WeChat contacts.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon, and the jungle was damp and hot.

“So thirsty, do you guys have any water?”

“Mine’s gone.”

“Water is too heavy, I only brought one bottle and now it’s almost out…”

“Should we go back then?”

“No way, look at the sign ahead, we’re about to find the ‘Treasure’, I’ve posted on Weibo before coming, if we just go back now, how can I explain to my fans.”

Fu’s investment in a multi-billion tourism project was a huge marketing success, with over a million reservations online.

These people were the first to enter and naturally did not want to give up easily.

Along the way, the ‘Treasure’ boxes contained vouchers from Fu’s food, jewelry, medicine, real estate, and tourism industries, along with gold card discounts.

Not long ago, a socialite found a jewelry gold card that could be used to purchase the latest luxury jewelry from the Fu’s collection.

Although these socialites and heiresses were not short of money, the surprise of opening a blind box and receiving a unique gift was something they still looked forward to.

Tang Xi remembered, she had seen the map before, and with her memory, she recalled there was a water source nearby.

“I remember the water source is to the east, I’ll go check it out.

You all stay here and don’t get scattered.”

An Lan looked at Tang Xi, “I’ll go with you.”

Tang Xi glanced at the shoes An Lan was wearing, thinking how these socialites, despite coming here for an expedition, were still wearing leather boots, “You wait here, there are lots of bushes ahead, and those shoes are impractical.”

About half an hour had passed.

An Lan heard a series of footsteps approaching and thought it was Tang Xi.

As she lifted her head, she heard a girl’s voice filled with surprise.

“Fu Tingzhou, how did you come here?”

Fu Tingzhou walked over with a young man.

That young man glanced at Sheng Muxin, who was resting in front of a stump, and immediately walked over with a frown, “What happened, is it serious?”

Sheng Muxin shook her head but her eyes turned red with grievance, “Brother, I’m fine, I just twisted my ankle by accident, Tang Xi has already bandaged it for me.”

Sheng Huai’an picked her up and said to the man, “I’ll take my sister for treatment first.”

Fu Tingzhou’s gaze swept around, looking at the several socialites present, his voice was cold yet distinctive, “Where is Tang Xi?”

“She went to find a water source.” An Lan pointed in a direction, “Over there, to the east, she’s been gone for over half an hour…”

Fu Tingzhou’s brows furrowed, and he strode in that direction.

A socialite wanted to strike up a conversation with Fu Tingzhou, but she couldn’t even touch the hem of his clothes.

She said with a sour tone, “What’s the relationship between Tang Xi and Fu Tingzhou…

Fu Tingzhou seems to be quite concerned about Tang Xi’s matters…”

An Lan spoke up, “Zhao Siyu, what’s it to you?”

–

Even though it was already afternoon, it felt especially stuffy in this dense jungle where the sky was obscured by the tall trees, with only a few strands of light visible.

She scooped up some water and washed her face.

This was a treated and drinkable water source, and Tang Xi had finally found it.

She was about to head back the same way to inform An Lan and the others.

She had taken a few steps forward when suddenly she heard footsteps.

Could it be An Lan and the others?

She raised her eyes and saw a familiar tall figure.

Tang Xi was startled for a moment.

Fu Tingzhou, why was he here?

She took a step forward.

Suddenly, she heard the man’s voice lower, “Stop, don’t move!”

Tang Xi was startled, and her steps came to an abrupt halt.

She looked at him blankly, not understanding why?

Had she annoyed him again?

“I…”

Fu Tingzhou’s brow was furrowed, and he spoke sternly, “Shut up!”

Tang Xi pursed her lips, a bit at a loss.

The man stepped closer and closer to her, his thin lips slightly pursed, his handsome face grew serious, and he slowly reached out towards her shoulder.

And Tang Xi, suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from behind her, her face instantly turned pale, and her whole body was filled with a chill.

In the corner of her eye, she saw something green on her shoulder…

There was a snake!

Tang Xi suppressed the scream that was about to burst from her throat; at the moment the snake lunged at her, she abruptly closed her eyes.

One second, two seconds.

There was no pain as she had imagined.

She opened her eyes to see the man who had appeared before her; his hand had already caught the snake by the neck.

Caught off guard, his arm was bitten.

Noticing his complexion turning pale.

Tang Xi’s gaze fell on the man’s hand, and tremblingly spoke out, “Fu Tingzhou, your hand—”
