Chapter 8

“What did you say?” Evangeline looked at Meghan with amusement.

With a condescending expression, Meghan said in a gentle voice again, I said I would like to share my tent with you. You can sleep with me tonight.

Evangeline said with a half–smile, “Say it again. Whose tent is it?”

The smile on Meghan’s face froze, and her face turned red.

Samson said unhappily, “Meghan has extended her generosity toward you. Don’t be so petty!”

Evangeline said, “You robbed me of my things and then displayed your generosity by sharing half of them with me? Are you out of your mind?”

“Does it matter whose tent this is! Whether it belongs to Meghan or not, she’s willing to share it with you. This shows she has a good heart. Why are you so petty? Can’t you be as generous as Meghan? Samson yelled with anger.

Evangeline rolled her eyes.

She didn’t want to waste her time with an imbecile like Samson

She looked at Meghais coldly and said in a frigid voice, “Il count to three. Pack up my things and return them to me immediately. Don’t make me do it myself. You can’t bear my anger.”

Then, she started counting “One!”

Meghan bit her lips and retorted, “Even if you brought these things here, they are with me and are mine now. You can’t take them away from me!”

She wouldn’t last a night in that forest without those things.

I will never give them back to Evangeline! They are mine! Meghan exclaimed inwardly

“Twol Evangeline said again.

Meghan looked at the other three and said angrily, “What are you waiting for! Get ready to stop her!”

Travis, Kendrick, and Jolene immediately moved into action. They quickly got up and each picked up an arm–thick stick.

They picked up the sticks for self defense, and right then, they were proving useful.

Travis said. “Evangeline, we’re not enemies. Apologize to Meghan and join our team. Otherwise, it will be dangerous for you to stay in the forest alone at night.”

Kendrick said, “Although I dislike you, I’d hate to see you die in the forest. As long as you apologize. I will welcome you to our team.”

Jolene stated, “You defeated us before because we were caught off guard. But now, we’re prepared. You can’t defeat all of us alone. Please stop the fuss and bow your head”

* * * 22 * F 22

Even though Evangeline had defeated them all before, they didn’t believe that they were weaker than her.

y were convinced that they were caught off guard back then.

They

Evangeline’s ambush had caught them by surprise that was why she had managed to overpower them.

As long as they were careful, Evangeline would be no match for them

“Threel” Evangeline finished the counting.

After saying that, she moved forward

Travis and Kendrick stood in front of her with sticks

“Evangeline, stop your tantrum already. We don’t want to bully women. Don’t make us hurt your Kendrick said in a low voice.

Travis continued to persuade her, “It’s not shameful to admit your mistake. Apologize

Evangeline sneered, “Mistake? What did I do wrong? It’s you blind, shameless people who are at fault How dare you take my things and make me apologize? Is this the morals and ethics you possessed? What a bunch of idiots!”

Travis and Kendrick stuttered, “Y–You.”

Evangeline quickly kicked Travis and Kendrick away. They fell to the ground and let out to screams,

Jolene shuddered, and the stick in her hand fell to the ground.

Looking at Evangeline’s solemn expression, Jolene dared not come forward and hurriedly dodged in fear.

No one stopped Evangeline. She went straight to Meghan.

“Sam” Meghan screamed.

Samson immediately spread his arms and stood in front of Meghan

“Eva… Ah!” Samson was kicked away by Evangeline before he could finish has words.

Meghan trembled with fear and said. ‘I… I’ll give them back to you. Don’t hit me

Evangeline sneered. Too late!”

In the silent environment, nothing was heard but the loud slaps

Evangeline slapped Meghan in the face repeatedly.

Meghan was silenced by the hard slaps on her cheeks. Her head jerked from side to side from the impact.

She felt as if her brain was about to be slapped off.

By the time Evangeline stopped, Meghan’s face was swollen.

Evangeline’s hand was covered with power.

“Tsk.” Evangeline wiped the powder on Meghan’s clothes in disgust

Then, she threw Meghan aside as though she was throwing garbage.

Meghan was struck dumb. She stayed in a daze even after being thrown to the ground.

Evangeline ignored her and started packing up her things.

She packed everything on the ground into a hiking bag.

The tent and air bed were folded up.

She was furious when she saw that half a bottle of her mosquito repellent had been used.

She thought, “Does Meghan have no common sense! We only need to apply a little at a time, but she used half a bottle all at once. Is her head full of nonsense!”

She was furious.

After packing up, she couldn’t resist giving Meghan another kick before leaving

“Ugh. If killing people wasn’t illegal, I’d open your brain to check if it’s filled with nonsense! You’re so stupid and selfish, you loser!” Evangeline cursed.

Samson was furious. “Enought Evangelinel Meghan has been beaten to a pulp by you, but you still refuse to spare her. Why are you so vicious!”

*Shut up! You 100, rubbish!” Evangeline also kicked him angrily.

“Ahr Samson rolled on the ground and bumped his head against a stone. He was also stunned.

Evangeline snorted coldly and went back to her base with her things

She set up the tent and air bed again, and then lay down comfortably in the tent

[Evangeline is awesome! She won in a one–to–five battle!] an audience cheered.

[Haven’t Travis, Kendrick, and Jolene figured out the situation yet! Why are they getting involved in this mess someone commented

[Samson and Meghan are idiots. Their morals are questionable. How could they be so righteous after robbing others things I have never seen such

shameless people) another added

(Evangeline was too

was too lenient with them. She should send them straight to hell] one of the audience fumed.

[She’d better not. If she killed them, she would go to jail. It’s not worth going to prison for those people! another chimed in

[Evangeline is going to bed. I can’t see her anymore. I miss her beauty already!] someone cried.

[Go to sleep. Get up early tomorrow and indulge in Evangeline’s beauty again, a fan said.

[Damn it! They’re scheming something again. It seems they haven’t learned their lessons yet someone remarked.

[Meghan is so disgusting. She stole Evangeline’s identity as the daughter of the Gallagher family, and now she even targeted Evangeline. She’s as mean as her mother. What exactly does the Gallagher family see in her?] someone asked.

(Evangeline is right. The whole Gallagher family are brainless idiots. They don’t deserve to be her family. Evangeline can live a fantastic life, even by herself another audience said.

I’m looking forward to the end of the show when they know the truth someone gloated.

[Me, too. I can’t wait to see how Meghan reacts when she knows that her true color has been exposed. Hahaha!) another agreed.

On the other side, not long after Evangeline had left, Meghan finally gathered herself

“Boo–hoo! Sam She threw herself into Samson’s arms and cried herself out.

“Sam, it hurts… Why was Evangeline so mean? I was so kind to her, but she beat me so brutally. I was disfigured by hert Boo–hoot I’ve never been humiliated and wronged like this in my life. Sam, you have to avenge me… Meghan let out a heart–wrenching sob

Samson was distressed to hear that.

He hugged Meghan tightly and said seriously, “Meghan, don’t worry. I won’t let you suffer in vain.

Meglan cried and said, “Then, avenge met

Samson’s face stiffened. “I can’t seek revenge now, Evangeline’s like a madwoman. A few words will trigger her to lash our immediately!

Besides, Samson knew he was no match for Evangeline

If he went to confront Evangeline then, he would probably get beaten up.

Meghan cried even louder.

Samson said, “I promise you that I will avenge you when we get back! You are the apple of our eyes, Meghan. We won’t let you be wronged!”

Meghan was still crying

Samson hugged Meghan, patted her on the back, and comforted her gently, “Don’t cry. Your tears are breaking my heart”

Meghan’s cries gradually quieted down as Samon comforted her.

[Bah! What an act Why would a thief feel aggrieved!) The netizen expressed their disdain online.

[Meghan is a habitual thief. She stole Evangeline’s identity, tent, and luggage. We don’t know how many things she has taken from Evangeline behind the scenes! A round of beatings is too lenient as her punishment. She should be beaten to death!] someone commented.

[What a joke! Meghan used to be portrayed as kind and weak, but now, she’s urging Samson to take revenge on Evangeline for her. Is this a kind and weak girl? I’ve learned a lot!] someone said.

[She’s not innocent but a vile woman!] someone remarked.

These siblings are outrageous. I don’t want to see them on TV after this variety show!) another added.

[If they can still appear on the screen in the future, it means we haven’t expressed our opinions strongly enough!] someone typed.

[I’m leaving I want to puke when I see their faces. See you tomorrow! someone said.

[I’m leaving, too. I’ll come to see Evangeline tomorrow!] another said.

As Evangeline vanished from the camera, the number of viewers in the live room dropped significantly.

ل

Less than half an hour after Evangeline went to sleep in the ent, the number of online viewers, which had reached 120 million, dropped by nearly

And the number was still going down.

In the end, there were only a few hundred thousands of audience members left

That was not a small number.

But the figure was small compared to the number during peak time.

Dallas looked at the number of viewers in the live room and pondered quietly.

After thinking hard for half an hour, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said. “Arrange for someone to steal Evangeline’s tent tomorrow!”

To ensure the safety of the participants, special troops were stationed in the forest, lurking quietly to prevent wild animals from approaching and ensuring the participants‘ safety.

If participants encountered other dangers, special troops would also come to the rescue

So, if they wanted to steal Evangeline’s tent, they just needed to issue an order to the troop.

The stall was dumbfounded

Someone asked, “Why should we steal Evangeline’s tent?”

Dallas explained. “If Evangeline stays in the tent, we won’t capture her on camera. There’s a significant drop in the live room audience. Let her appear morc

The staff said, “Well.. Is it possible that the number drops because people are going to sleep! Even if Evangeline keeps appearing, the audience still has to sleep when it’s time,”

Dallas glanced at the staff and said, “Look what time it is. Are you going to bed now!”

The staff took a look at the phone and exclaimed, “Huh? How come it’s only half past eight? Evangeline went to bed so early?”

Dallas said, “She doesn’t have a mobile phone or any entertainment. It’s normal for her to sleep when the sky turns dark. It’s only half past eight, and this should be the time when netizens are most active. But the audience number in the live room dropped significantly. It must have something to do with Evangeline going offline, so we need to take countermeasures”

The staff said, “I see I’ll contact the people over there now and ask them to find a chance to take action tomorrow!”

The production crew decided to take a less ethical approach to boost the show’s ratings.

The next day, Evangeline woke up when the dawn just broke.

As she emerged from the tent, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath of the fresh air outside. Instantly, she felt rejuvenated

“The air is so fresh,” she commented.

She took the toiletry and went to the riverside to wash up.

Then, she practiced one round of Eight Brocades in front of the tent

An old man had taught her that exercise back when she was still on the streets.

It was said that practicing that exercise regularly could cure any disease

Evangeline didn’t know if it was true.

That was because for so many years, she had never been sick or even caught a cold.

She didn’t know if it was due to her good physical fitness or because she had been practicing that set of techniques, resulting in a strong body that resisted diseases.

[What a coincidence! The moment I entered the live room, Evangeline was online!] a fan commented excitedly.

(It’s only half past five, and Evangeline already woke up. She’s up so early!] someone exclaimed,

[Evangeline went to bed at half past eight last night, so it’s normal for her to get up at this time, someone explained

[That’s right. Without mobile phones and clocks, it’s challenging to tell the time, so she can only sleep when the sky turns dark and wake up when dawn breaks, someone chimed in.

[What exercise is Evangeline practicing? Look at her movements. How many years did she practice!] a netizen wondered.

[I know the answer. This is called Eight Brocades. My grandpa practiced it every day for more than ten years. Now, my grandpa is 99 years old, and he is still strong. This technique can strengthen the body. I didn’t expect Evangeline to practice this set of techniques at such a young age someone

sand

[Ahhh! Evangeline is so beautiful. Even her casual movements are graceful and pleasing to the eyes!) someone complimented.

Soon, a trending hashtag titled “Evangeline in Jungle Survival” appeared on Twitter.

With the rising popularity of that trending topic, the number of people in the live room also began to rise rapidly.

At six o’clock, the number of viewers in the live room had surged to over 30 million from just over 200 thousand!

The data analyst was stunned. “Damn it Is Evangeline the key to the audience numbers! It’s only six o’clock, and there are so many people coming to watch the livestream. This is shocking! If this weren’t our show, I would have suspected that someone was faking the audience numbers. Evangeline’s lent must be stolen! Anything that can hide her face must be taken away!”
