Lin Sen's eyes widened as he stared at the scene before him in disbelief.
Of course, he wasn't the only one. Bai Ziyu and Long Aozhi had seen it too, and immediately said sourly, "Brother Qin is really good to Jiang Fang. He even brought breakfast right to him first thing in the morning."
When he saw Fang Yi walking over, Bai Ziyu deliberately raised his voice without making it obvious.
Unfortunately, Fang Yi was rather oblivious and didn't notice Bai Ziyu trying to poison the well.
Seeing that Fang Yi had no reaction, Bai Ziyu didn't bother getting himself worked up. He went off to one side alone and started eating the leftover rations.
Everyone else went about their own business as well, though their gazes still drifted toward Jiang Fang's tent from time to time.
Inside the one-person tent, the thin blanket hung messily off to one side. Morning sunlight spilled down through the not-so-opaque tent, hazy and strangely suggestive.
The misty light fell over Jiang Fang's tousled hair, making it seem as though it were glowing. The warm light shone on his exposed skin, making it exceptionally fair, almost translucent.
He was sleeping soundly. The voices outside and Qin Yan's footsteps disturbed his peaceful slumber, and his brows furrowed in aggrieved annoyance.
The drone cameras operated twenty-four hours a day:
[Ahhh, holy crap! Is this really something I'm allowed to see?! Sob sob, give the drone cameraman an extra drumstick! So beautiful, so beautiful!] [My tears are flowing out of the corners of my mouth!] [Wifey, wifey, wifey!] [Wifey is so delicate! I love him so much! Sob, kitty! Is this a kitty with morning grumpiness?!] [Director, you deserve for this show to blow up! Am I really allowed to see this?! A beauty overload!!!] [My mom asked why I was licking the screen. I told her the screen was dirty and blocking my view of my wifey!]
For a moment, Qin Yan didn't know what to do. He had clearly heard Jiang Fang tell him to come in while he was outside the tent, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang Fang had fallen asleep again.
"Jiang Fang?" he asked quietly.
The person beneath the blankets answered with a soft nasal "Mm," shifted slightly, then fell silent again.
There was no movement again.
Qin Yan smiled helplessly and bent down to wake him, only for his foot to slip. He fell straight toward where Jiang Fang was lying.
Almost instinctively, he braced himself with one hand. His movements were light and nimble, and he even carefully controlled his breathing, not wanting to wake him.
Who could bear to wake a spoiled kitty with morning grumpiness?
Unfortunately, the sudden motion stirred up a chilly breeze that brushed across Jiang Fang's neck.
"What are you doing?"
Before him was Qin Yan's flustered yet handsome face.
Jiang Fang grabbed the blanket beside him and opened his sleep-fogged eyes. His voice was hoarse with lingering drowsiness and irritation, like a pampered cat voicing its displeasure in a coquettish way.
Qin Yan felt his heartbeat stop for an instant.
Then, he seemed to hear his heart pounding fiercely in his chest—
Thump, thump!
"Mm?" The sticky nasal sound seemed to ask, why aren't you answering me?
Qin Yan unconsciously moved his throat, which felt dry and itchy.
"Sorry..." For the first time, he scrambled to his feet, the tips of his ears quietly turning red. "I... it's, it's time for breakfast."
[Ahhh, holy crap, what was that just now?! That was straight out of an idol drama!! Oh my god, he's too seductive!] [Damn! Who could resist a kitty's charm?] [Holy crap, holy crap, this cat servant has fallen! Fangfang, ahhh! My beautiful, tsundere kitty!!] [Help, I've been bewitched! My mom asked why I was screaming, blushing, and bouncing around the house!] [Damn, has Best Actor Qin fallen for him?! His Adam's apple moved! Ahhh, he even stuttered! His ears are red too! Help! Best Actor, don't be like this. As Kitty Fang's new wife, I can't beat your fans! We're still in a livestream—could you rein in your expression a little?] [As Qin fans, we can say this: we can't withstand kitty's charm either!! He's too bewitching! Qin Yan, get out of the way and let me do it!] [Who could resist this?! Even a best actor can't help it!] [I'm dying, a live record of fans switching sides. But if it's kitty, it suddenly makes sense!] [Who could possibly not love kitty?! The sacred flame shines bright, the holy light gleams; all my disciples, meow meow meow meow!]
Jiang Fang still had no idea that the livestream had turned him into a cat.
He looked at the sweet potato before him, his mind still a little slow to process things.
Jiang Fang had a wide range of interests and an exceptionally strong sense of self-discipline. The only habit he could never change was sleeping in.
He was used to waking naturally, and getting up early would put him in a terrible mood for the entire day.
He had another weakness: when forced to get up early, his mind would be terribly foggy.
Like right now—
When he saw the steaming sweet potato being offered to him, his brain short-circuited. He reached out, grabbed Qin Yan's wrist, and pulled him down!
Pulled! Him! Down!
Qin Yan was stunned, and so was the livestream.
[Holy crap, holy crap! I hate that I'm not there, or I'd definitely kick the best actor out!] [Sob sob, I wish I could possess the best actor. Is kitty really this enthusiastic?!] [Hahahaha, Jiang Fang obviously isn't awake yet—his mind is still muddled. I can already imagine how mortified he'll be once he wakes up properly.] [Kitty, he wanted you to take the sweet potato, not hold his hand!] [I have a feeling that even if someone kidnapped kitty right now, he'd hold the rope and follow along himself.] [Hahahaha, the best actor is so flustered. Never seen anything like this before, huh!]
Qin Yan truly had never seen anything like this before.
Afraid of crushing Jiang Fang, he held himself up with one hand.
The young man before him had unfocused eyes and was clearly still half-asleep. Qin Yan said helplessly, "Jiang Fang?" He called the young man's name carefully, as though afraid of angering his cat master.
"Mm?" Jiang Fang looked at Qin Yan, his mind unable to catch up.
Who is this?
Who am I?
Where am I?
Oh, I transmigrated. I'm on the Wilderness Survival variety show, fighting wits with white lotuses and green tea bitches!
"White lotus?" He had barely said the words before his mouth was covered.
Seeing that he was still muddled, Qin Yan was afraid he might say something he shouldn't.
The kitty blinked in confusion, not understanding why the person in front of him was covering his mouth. His brows creased lightly, and he looked utterly wronged.
[Let him speak! Qin Yan, let go of kitty!] [Hahahahaha, ask kitty anything now and he'll answer. Be careful he gets taken out by the entertainment industry.] [Kitty was saying "white lotus" just now, right? I'm dying. Even half-asleep, he still remembered it. It really left a deep impression.]
Qin Yan's hand covered Jiang Fang's lips as a subtle atmosphere spread through the tent.
Jiang Fang gradually woke up.
Then—
He froze.
[Hahahahahaha, he's awake now, right? Look at those horrified, dumbfounded eyes—I'm dying!] [Jiang Fang: I've lost a whole year's worth of face here.] [Panicked kitty.jpg] [I love these embarrassing moments. Wilderness Survival is officially a comedy variety show!]
As the hazy memories of what he had just done returned, even someone like Jiang Fang, whose expression wouldn't change even if the world came crashing down, changed color.
"I..."
"You..."
Their eye contact was a little awkward. Jiang Fang was about to speak to ease the atmosphere, but Qin Yan spoke at the same time.
They were too close. Qin Yan's hot breath faintly brushed his forehead, and Jiang Fang blushed for the first time in his life.
Just then.
Footsteps and Lin Sen's shout came from outside the tent.
"Brother Qin? Jiang Fang? Are you two okay?"
The footsteps drew closer and closer, as though he would appear at the tent entrance the next second...
