Love And

Chapter 34

Rebecca glanced at the barrage of comments and couldn’t help but laugh, caught up in the audience’s excitement.

However, when she thought about what lay ahead, she felt a bit resigned. Were they really going to scour the

whole mountain to catch chickens?

“Will there be any new surprises?” Rebecca wondered, looking into the live stream camera.

After she spoke, she turned to Charlie and said, “Since the show stirred things up at noon, they must have other plans, right? Could there be something new this afternoon?”

Charlie pondered momentarily and then nodded. “It’s possible.”

“Let’s go find it out,” Rebecca said with a smile.

Charlie smiled too and nodded. “Yeah.”

So, they set off together, heading in another direction. As they searched for chickens, they kept an eye on the forest, hoping to discover other “surprises.”

Meanwhile, Lesley was fuming. Before the afternoon’s live broadcast, Janet had explicitly told her to cause trouble for Charlie and Rebecca. No matter what, she had to prevent those two from stealing the spotlight from Janet.

Although Lesley was frustrated, she didn’t dare resist. Everyone in their circle had signed contracts before joining the company. If they disobeyed the company’s arrangements, they risk being sidelined and might have to pay exorbitant penalties for breach of contract.

Lesley thought and then sneaked towards where Charlie and Rebecca had placed their chickens.

Meanwhile, Charlie and Rebecca were still searching in the forest. Without tools, catching chickens proved to be quite tricky. After more than an hour, they had only managed to catch two chickens and found no sign of the big surprise they had anticipated from the production team. They were left puzzled, wondering what the afternoon

surprise could be.

At around three in the afternoon, the livestream viewers noticed that Lesley and her sister, who had been diligently catching chickens in the morning, were now sneaking around. They eventually reached the base camp where Charlie and Rebecca had tied up their chickens.

Initially, no one sensed anything amiss. Everyone didn’t think much about it. After all, it was just a variety show,

not real life.

The tens of thousands of viewers in the livestream were simply curious, unsure of what Lesley and Angie were up

1. to.

It wasn’t until they suddenly rushed over and began frantically untying the ropes that bound Charlie and Rebecca’s chickens that people started to catch on.

They released one chicken, then another.

One chicken after another, they kept going.

Just as they freed three chickens, Ben, standing behind the cameraman, had a sudden flash of inspiration.

He quickly grabbed a megaphone and announced a new game update. “Congratulations to Group Three for successfully stealing Group Five’s base camp. Now, let’s update the chicken count for each group.

“Group One has caught five chickens. Group Two has caught four chickens.

“Group Three has caught thirty–eight chickens. Group Four has caught ten chickens.

“Group Five has caught two chickens.”

As soon as the production team’s megaphone blared, everyone was stunned, including the game participants, the livestream audience, and even Lesley and Angie, who were in the middle of stealing the chickens.

Stealing the base? Who stole the base?

How did you steal a base? Was this even allowed?

Soon, Charlie and Rebecca realized that it was their base being raided!

Without a moment’s hesitation, they sprinted back towards their camp as they cursed inside.

The production team was so tricky. Why hadn’t they mentioned this rule earlier? It was so sudden!

In the livestream, the audience also caught on, and all five stream rooms exploded with frantic comments. Everyone was typing furiously, flooding the screens.

Lesley and Angie were equally shocked at the theft scene. Could they steal a base? Were they really in the midst of stealing a base?

Once they processed this, both sisters‘ hands began to shake. Their hands, which had been releasing chickens, quickly shifted to grabbing and attempting to run off with them.

Why bother releasing more chickens?

If they could steal them, they should take as many as they could!

However, Rebecca and Charlie had caught dozens of chickens in the morning. All were tethered there, and even

with both hands, the sisters couldn’t carry so many chickens. Even when they grabbed the ropes to lift the

chickens, they found..

They were too heavy!

They simply couldn’t lift them!

“Lesley, chop chop, they’ll be back soon!” Both excited and scared, Angie stammered in a trembling voice, revealing her frantic state.

Lesley was even more anxious than Angie, and her excitement surged. Initially, she only intended to cause some trouble, but with the unexpected turn of events from the production team’s announcement, she realized they

weren’t doing anything wrong. They were executing a brilliantly successful base theft!

If they managed to pull this off, they would be the ultimate winners of the show.

Victory clouded Lesley’s judgment. She frantically scooped up a heap of chickens, covering herself from head to

toe.

There were still more chickens on the ground, but they couldn’t carry any more! What to do?

“Hide them! Quick, hide what we’ve got!” Lesley’s rational side finally kicked in a bit, and she urged.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Angie nodded frantically in agreement. “Yeah, yeah. But where do we hide them?”

The sisters fled with their load of chickens, running a distance away, but they had no idea where to stash the chickens they had acquired.

On the other side, Charlie and Rebecca raced back at top speed. Their base was in disarray, but fortunately, many chickens remained. They hadn’t lost them all.

Almost simultaneously, Charlie and Rebecca glanced at the staff filming them.

At that moment, they both wanted to curse. This was outrageous!

Meanwhile, Ben, watching the situation unfold through the livestream, couldn’t help but smile. Holding the megaphone, he delivered the update with a touch of glee.

“Congratulations to Group Five for returning in time and safeguarding some of their chickens. Now, let’s update the chicken count for each group. Group One has caught five chickens.

“Group Two has caught four chickens. Group Three has caught eighteen chickens.

“Group Four has caught ten chickens. Group Five has caught twenty–two chickens.”

This announcement was dripping with emotion, its gleefulness nearly bursting off the screen.

Charlie and Rebecca were speechless on the mountain, then were amused. This production team was beyond

bellef.

In the livestream, different rooms experienced a significant fluctuation in online viewership due to this unexpected

turn of events. Everyone rushed to Room Five and Room Three to catch the excitement.

In just a few minutes, the viewer count in Room One, Room Two, and Room Four almost plummeted to zero.

The participants in Room One and Room Two were relatively unfazed. They had joined the show prepared for anything, with no grand expectations, so they weren’t too disappointed by the unexpected turn of events.

They were even taken aback by the production team’s “base theft” maneuver. If circumstances allowed, they would have joined the audience in checking out what was happening in Room Three and Room Five.
