Jet warriors

"I read about this wild fruit in a book. It's wild mountain raspberry, and it's edible." Shen Xinbai still sounded aggrieved. "Chaochao, even if you have something against me, everyone else is innocent. We've been walking through the jungle for so long. What's wrong with sitting down to eat some wild fruit and rest?"

Lou Jun immediately said with deep affection, "I trust Xinbai. This fruit definitely isn't poisonous. I'll eat it first!"

Cheng Yu rolled her eyes hard too. "Xu Chao, you're useless, so when you saw Xinbai find some wild fruit, you got jealous and called it poisonous. Tch."

Lin Yang didn't like hearing that. Planting his hands on his hips, he declared loudly, "Chaochao wouldn't get jealous! This fruit must be poisonous. I'm not eating it!"

"Yangyang, don't be difficult. Since Xinbai did his research, there must be nothing wrong with this fruit," Zhou Nan said gently.

Lin Yang's eyes widened, a trace of hurt mingling with his shock. "Chaochao is my best friend."

As his husband, shouldn't Zhou Nan have been on his side?

But Zhou Nan put on a very rational expression and said, "We're judging the issue, not the person. We can't blindly take someone's side just because we're close to them."

[I get why our little angel Yangyang is upset. His own husband, the person closest to him, sided with someone else instead. Putting myself in his shoes, I'd cry from feeling so wronged.]

[Please, stop being so melodramatic. Objectively speaking, Zhou Nan wasn't wrong.]

Xu Chao took a big, red apple from his supply bag and pushed it into Lin Yang's arms.

The corners of Lin Yang's mouth drooped. "I don't want it. You eat it."

"Head pats. Be good. We're not eating those tiny, sour diarrhea berries. We're having a big, crisp, delicious apple!" Xu Chao winked furiously at Lin Yang as he spoke.

Although he didn't immediately understand what diarrhea berries were, Xu Chao must have had his reasons for saying that!

Holding the big apple, Lin Yang took a bite. "Sweet!"

Over on the other side, the others had still been feeling smug, but the instant they saw the big apple, their smugness vanished.

Compared with wild fruit of unknown toxicity, they wanted apples too!

As though afraid of being outdone, Shen Xinbai hurriedly picked a cluster of wild berries and held it to Lou Jun's lips.

Lou Jun sweetly opened his mouth. "Wild berries Xinbai picked taste so good..."

Once the berries entered his mouth, their juice was sour and astringent, with a strange rotten taste. Lou Jun opened his mouth to spit them out.

Xu Chao asked with a beaming smile, "So good you want to puke?"

Lou Jun forced himself to swallow and smiled through gritted teeth. "Delicious. Especially sweet. As sweet as Xinbai."

Shen Xinbai blushed shyly and pounded his chest with a little fist. "Jun, you're awful."

Xu Chao looked disgusted. "So cheesy. I want to puke."

Lou Jun and Shen Xinbai: "..."

[Someone's so jealous of seeing Lou Jun and Xinbai being all lovey-dovey that he's losing it.]

[Losing it, my ass. Xu Chao clearly finds them revolting. Honestly, I think they're so cheesy too. Ewww!]

[Are those berries really sweet? Best Actor Lou's face is all twisted. I'm seriously doubtful.]

With Lou Jun taking the lead, the others, who had still harbored doubts, began picking and eating the berries too. Then, one by one, they fell silent after tasting them.

Zhou Nan endured it again and again, then held the two clusters of wild berries in his hand out to feed Lin Yang.

Lin Yang whipped his head away like a stubborn little swan. "I'm on Chaochao's side. I'm not eating them. I absolutely refuse to eat anything Shen Xinbai found."

The gentle mask on Zhou Nan's face nearly shattered. This idiot! Unbelievable!

Lou Jun frowned. Just as he was about to give Lin Yang a scolding, a strange sensation suddenly surged through his body, seemingly desperate to find an outlet.

Lou Jun flung away the wild berries in his hand, his throat tightening. "I-I'm going to look around."

With that, he ran off at top speed.

Shen Xinbai was just about to ask after him with concern when his own expression changed. "I-I have something to do too."

Immediately afterward, the others who had eaten the berries also found various excuses to run off.

Lin Yang watched in bewilderment. "What's wrong with all of them?"

Watching their hurriedly retreating backs, Xu Chao couldn't help wanting to laugh. "Diarrhea."

Lin Yang's eyes lit up. "Right, right! It really does look like it. But how come they all got it at the same time?"

Diarrhea!

Diarrhea berries!!

They gave you diarrhea!!!

All three of them turned their eyes to the bushes in unison. Looking at them now, the wild berries seemed eerily red!

Lin Yang sprang back a step, his face full of relief at having escaped disaster, but soon another thought struck him!

"The camera drones followed them. They're not going to livestream them doing... that, are they?"

Xu Chao let out a "Whoa!" Thrilling! Thrilling!

At that moment, in the production team's control room, the director looked as though he were facing a formidable enemy and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Quick, quick! Manually cut the drone feeds!"

In fact, Fu's latest product boasted superior performance and highly advanced intelligence, capable of accurately identifying what it could and couldn't film.

But that was no help when someone pulled his pants down too fast!

Emerald leaves, two pale cheeks flickering into view, and something jetting out...

[My eyes! My eyes! My eyes!]

[If I've sinned, let the law punish me instead of making me see this eye-searing sight!]

[Buttholes spray, devastation everywhere. Those poor innocent blades of grass!]

[Aaah, the illusion is shattered! Turns out everyone looks the same when they shit!]

While the live comments went wild, Xu Chao wasn't idle either. Working deftly, he made several eco-friendly masks out of leaves. Lin Yang was the first to put one on.

Emerald leaves paired with a pretty little face could be summed up in one word: ridiculous!

Xu Chao and Lin Yang looked at each other's green masks and clutched their stomachs, rocking with laughter. Suddenly, an icy voice rang out. "Give me one."

Only Xu Chao's almond-shaped eyes were visible, curved with laughter. "What do you want?"

Fu Sichen stared at him. "A leaf mask. Give me one."

Before Xu Chao could react much, Lin Yang gasped, then burst out laughing. "No, no! This ridiculous mask is such a bad match for the aloof Young Master Fu!"

Fu Sichen tilted his head, his dark eyes flicking coldly toward Lin Yang. "Chaochao and I are the best match."

Lin Yang's smile vanished abruptly, and his calves trembled. "Ah. Oh. Y-yes."

Fu Sichen's gaze swept over the half-eaten apple in Lin Yang's hand, then rose to the leaf mask on his face. His eyes grew even more hostile, his voice cold. "Give me the mask."

Lin Yang was baffled. "Huh?"

Xu Chao was a little baffled too. Didn't the big boss hate cuckold green more than anything? Why was he asking to wear a green mask now?

Could this be a test for me?!

In a flash of inspiration, Xu Chao hurriedly said, "Of course! Hubby and Chaochao are a match made in heaven, so naturally our masks have to match too!"

And so, when the others finally returned after relieving their explosive, torrential bodily needs, they found all three wearing masks.

Lin Yang's medical mask could be explained as protection against the sun and insects, but what were Fu Sichen and Xu Chao's leaf masks protecting them against?

What exactly were they protecting themselves against?! Huh?!

Not much damage, but an enormous insult!

Clenching his fists, Lou Jun was the first to lash out. "Xu Chao, you knew the berries were poisonous! Why didn't you say so earlier? You just watched us all eat them and get diarrhea!"

Xu Chao grabbed Fu Sichen with one hand and hurried backward, holding his other hand in front of his face. "Mr. Stinky, we can talk this out! Don't come closer! Back! Back! Back!"
