Jiang Fang: I Have a Bad Temper

Quiet.

Very quiet.

Unbearably quiet.

No one, not even Qin Yan, had expected Jiang Fang to go on the attack so directly, showing no mercy as he called a popular celebrity stupid.

There were too many hypocritical people in this world, especially in the cesspool that was the entertainment industry. Even Qin Yan himself had become the kind of person he once hated most. Jiang Fang was like a blaze, crashing into Qin Yan's world with blazing intensity.

Standing to one side, Qin Yan's eyes grew brighter and brighter as he watched Jiang Fang.

As for everyone else, they were utterly stunned by Jiang Fang.

Bai Ziyu's mind went blank from the scolding. Ever since he had become famous, who didn't call him "Teacher Bai" and wait on him properly?

Even if there was someone he disliked, all he had to do was redden his eyes, and his fans would curse that person into oblivion. When had Bai Ziyu ever suffered such treatment?

He was so stunned that he became mute.

Jiang Fang had not charged in blindly, either. He had never suffered much growing up, but he had navigated the business world for years, where everyone was shrewd. It was not that he did not know how to deal with people hypocritically. Bai Ziyu simply was not worth the effort.

At worst, more people would curse him over this situation. Once he got hold of evidence that Bai Ziyu had pushed him, everything would fall into place.

When viewers watched the footage again, they would realize—

Look, Jiang Fang was only a victim. Bai Ziyu was far too vicious!

Those who had attacked Jiang Fang for Bai Ziyu would only rebound from rock bottom. The harder they had hated him, the guiltier they would feel toward him.

And he himself was merely a pitiful little victim who had nowhere to seek justice.

Setting aside what came later, even the livestream viewers were dumbfounded by Jiang Fang's sudden outburst. Once Bai Ziyu's fans realized what Jiang Fang had said, their rage instantly shot through the roof. Just as their hands landed on their keyboards, ready to charge into battle, Jiang Fang's voice sounded again from the video.

"Get this straight. You joined Wilderness Survival, not some other variety show where you can cry a little, flap your lips, and have people fawn over you."

"Wilderness survival is about surviving. Do you know what matters most when setting up camp? Safety. Summer is flood season. If you dare camp in low-lying ground, heh—" Jiang Fang sneered. "If you fall asleep in the middle of the night, no one may get there in time to collect your corpse."

"Yes, that patch of land is flat. Are you blind? Did you not see those deep grasses and that stagnant pond? Of course, if you are not afraid of snakes, insects, and rodents wandering around, be my guest."

"As for the rest... I will not say anything, lest I get accused of bullying my teammate again. As for everything else—" Jiang Fang stared at Bai Ziyu for a long while before saying quietly, "My temper may not be very good, but at least I would not take someone's life."

He seemed to be merely explaining himself, yet his words also seemed to carry a deeper meaning.

Jiang Fang did not bother with the mess here. Carrying his tools, he headed into the woods.

Only after he vanished from sight did faint sobbing rise from the camp.

Bai Ziyu sat on the ground, crying prettily. He was panicked—not only because he had embarrassed himself in public, but also because of Jiang Fang's final words.

Did Jiang Fang know? Had he realized that Bai Ziyu was the one who had pushed him?

His mind was in chaos, and he began to cry without regard for anyone around him.

Bai Ziyu's fans in the livestream had already gone mad.

[Damn it, Jiang Fang, how can you be so vicious? Go die!]

[My Yuyu was kindly looking out for you, yet you bit him instead. Are you even human? Your whole fucking family deserves to die!]

[How dare he? The person I cherish most was humiliated like this. Jiang Fang, just you wait. I refuse to believe I cannot destroy you!]

[What did he mean by that last sentence? He would not take someone's life? Does that mean my Yuyu would? Idiot!]

Seeing Bai Ziyu's fans curse more and more viciously, some passersby who were merely interested in the show's premise could not help speaking up.

[Jiang Fang is not wrong, though. Bai Ziyu clearly does not understand anything but insists on pretending that he does. Then he implied that Jiang Fang was risking the team's lives, but isn't that exactly what he was doing? If they really camped where he chose, one rise in the water level could easily cost them their lives.]

[He can take digs at others, but no one can criticize him? That is some impressive double standard!]

However, Bai Ziyu's status as a wildly popular star was no exaggeration. His fandom was infamous for cultivating victim mentality and had a whole pack of brainless die-hard fans. If a passerby said a single word for Jiang Fang, their private messages would immediately be flooded with abuse until they had no choice but to stay silent.

Not to mention Jiang Fang was just an ordinary person with no fans at all. Even if he had any, they were only superficial fans drawn by his looks, with no fighting power to speak of.

Once the capital behind Bai Ziyu began pulling strings, Jiang Fang immediately became a rat everyone wanted to beat.

Claims that he was an orphan, along with all sorts of nonexistent friends, emerged to condemn him and expose his supposed scandals. For a time, he was the center of attention.

Of course, it was infamy.

He had called Bai Ziyu stupid and brainless, so people accused him of falsifying his academic credentials and cheating on the college entrance examination, even sending complaints to his university.

[Jiang Fang seems to be a freshman at B University this year!]

[@B University Say something. Is this the kind of student your school produces? He casually slanders others and cheated on the college entrance exam. Deal with him already. Heh, otherwise next year's application rate will teach you a lesson.]

[Jiang Fang is from B University? How is that possible?]

[Sure enough, education does not screen for character or morals. @B University Look at your student and give us an explanation. Investigate him. Maybe no one even knows how he got that admission letter.]

He had said Bai Ziyu was hypocritical and risked people's lives, so others accused him of stealing and causing trouble as an orphan.

[Uh, Jiang Fang was my middle school classmate. He had no parents, and his life probably was not great. Things often went missing in our class back then, and they were eventually found with him...]

[He also hung around with punks.]

[Holy shit, someone like that can be on a show? @Wilderness Survival Director, are you not kicking him off? Letting someone like this on the show will corrupt children!]

With so much dirt being thrown around, some people truly began believing Jiang Fang was that kind of person. They would curse him a few times for no reason, and even people who had not finished following the gossip spread it from mouth to mouth. As a result, Jiang Fang gained even more haters.

Only some people who had watched the entire livestream still stood by Jiang Fang. But their voices were too weak, and few listened even when they tried to explain. They were instead immediately labeled Jiang Fang's brainless fans.

In the end, things spiraled completely out of control.

As for the bloodbath raging outside, Jiang Fang had once owned an entertainment company. So even without a phone, he still had some understanding of what was happening.

But he was not worried. The harder they tried to smear him now, the more desperately they would repent later.

After venting his anger, he felt much better. He silently reviewed the current situation, confirmed everything was under control, and began preparing lunch.

Calling it lunch was a stretch. Finding the campsite and setting up camp had taken a great deal of time, and it was already past noon.

He casually found a piece of wood, sawed and trimmed it with steel wire, then used the sunlight to sharpen one end of the stick.

A rustling sound of footsteps crushing dead leaves came from behind him.

Jiang Fang did not need to look to know who it was. In this variety show, the only person who would still come looking for him after he had caused such a huge mess could only be Qin Yan.

"The tent's up?" Jiang Fang picked up the sharpened stick and stood.

Qin Yan had not expected that to be his first question. He froze for a moment, then nodded.

Jiang Fang casually handed him another stick. "If you are done, help me catch fish." He ordered him around without hesitation, showing no awareness whatsoever that the other man was a major celebrity and award-winning actor.

Qin Yan instinctively accepted the stick. Looking at Jiang Fang preparing to spear fish, he lowered his head and smiled.

Rather than worrying about Jiang Fang, he should probably worry about what he himself would be eating today.
