CHAPTER 538: CHAPTER 245: WILDERNESS TRIP WITH THE TWO OF THEM (LONG CHAPTER, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE)_3

Zhang Jingdong continued to tease her: "So, who do you think will win our bet this time?"

Liang Feng also turned to look at Shu Ran: "Teacher Shu, we’ve fought side by side so many times, you must be on my side."

Zhang Jingdong couldn’t help but envision the scenes of the two fighting side by side and then said: "Teacher Shu, I also think you should side with President Liang, so that’s settled!"

"If I lose at that time, both of you can give me a ten-minute military training session, but if I win, then I will give each of you a five-minute military training session."

Upon hearing this, and glancing at Zhang Jingdong’s expression at the moment, Shu Ran immediately realised what he was up to and pursed her lips: "Alright, since you say so, I’ll stand with Sister Feng."

Seeing that she agreed, Zhang Jingdong leaned back in his chair with a satisfied look on his face.

Three hours later, Zhang Jingdong saw a river in the distance and said to Liang Feng: "Shall we stop here for a break and have something to eat?"

Liang Feng immediately shook her head: "No, we need to hurry on our way!"

"Why? Based on our current speed, even if we take an hour’s break, we can still reach the rendezvous point before 5 o’clock."

"Because I must be the first one there!"

Zhang Jingdong sighed: "Your spirit of competition is really strong, but what’s the reward for arriving first?"

"There’s no reward, but it’s an honor!"

"So you were always the first one to arrive at the meeting point before?"

"Of course."

"Then how much faster are you usually than the second person?"

"At least half an hour."

"If that’s the case, then let’s rest up quickly and eat something, half an hour should be just about enough."

"No, I must be absolutely sure of success."

Zhang Jingdong said annoyedly: "Then stop the car, let the two of us off, you go fight for your first place, Teacher Shu and I need to rest properly."

"You... No, it gets harder to travel later on. You two definitely won’t make it to the meeting point before dark, and it would be too dangerous for you in the mountains!"

Zhang Jingdong shook his head with a smile: "Don’t worry, for all you know, we might even get there before you!"

"Zhang Jingdong, I find it baffling how you can be so recklessly boastful sometimes. We’re in the wilderness; if you bluster without thinking, nature will punish you, and the price you pay might even be your life!"

"President Liang, I also want to tell you, although I like to boast, it’s because I have the capital to do so, and every time I boast, I end up proving with facts that I really am as good as I say I am."

"Don’t you deeply understand this by now?"

Liang Feng heard this, turned sharply, and parked the car by the roadside.

"Fine, since you’re so amazing, then get off, but I’m warning you, the signal is really bad in these mountains, and there are a lot of wild animals. Once I’m far away, even if you run into trouble and try to call me for help, I might not receive it."

"Just go ahead with confidence. If we really encounter wild animals, they’ll be the unlucky ones!"

Zhang Jingdong said this and got out of the car sprucely.

Seeing this, Shu Ran also opened the car door: "Sister Feng, you go ahead, I’ll stay behind to keep him company."

Although Liang Feng cursed Zhang Jingdong a hundred times in her heart, she ultimately couldn’t bear to leave him behind. Although Shu Ran’s wilderness survival skills weren’t as good as hers, they were still above average, enough to ensure his safety, so she nodded.

Shu Ran then got out of the car.

Liang Feng glanced at the two of them in the rearview mirror, bit her lip corner, and after a swift maneuver, the car sped away.

Shu Ran watched the departing vehicle, then turned to Zhang Jingdong: "Jingdong, don’t be upset, Sister Feng is actually thinking of our well-being, there really are often wild animals around here."

Zhang Jingdong took her by the shoulders: "I know, but let’s just eat and rest for a bit, and then we’ll catch up with her."

"As for the wild animals, I hope they show up. I haven’t tasted real game for years, and it would be just the thing to whet my appetite."

While speaking, he called out to Long Yue, who was not far away in the car, "Bring down my fishing rod."

Long Yue immediately got out of the car, took his fishing rod and bait from the trunk, and delivered them to him.

As Zhang Jingdong took the fishing rod and bait, a thought struck him: "I want to draw a prize!"

"Host has accumulated 130 points of goodwill from the target person, meeting the conditions for a prize drawing. You may draw a prize!"

"Would you like to start the prize drawing, Host?"

"Yes."

"Prize drawing starting..."

"Prize one: Deng Gang’s fishing skills."

"Prize two: Bear’s outdoor survival skills."

"Prize three: Luo Xuejuan’s swimming abilities."

"I choose prize one."

"Prize exchange complete, Host still has three opportunities to draw. Would you like to continue drawing?"

"No."

Zhang Jingdong then held the fishing rod in his left hand and wrapped his right arm around Shu Ran’s waist, making their way to the riverbank.

Shu Ran had never seen Zhang Jingdong fish before, so she subconsciously thought that it might take him a long time.

To save time, she said to Zhang Jingdong, "You fish here. I’ll go over there to see what there is to eat."

Zhang Jingdong shook his head with a smile, "Don’t worry, I’ll get it done in ten minutes or so at most, then you can taste my exclusive secret grilled fish!"

Hearing this, and seeing his confidence, Shu Ran could only nod, "Alright then."

Zhang Jingdong promptly sat down and began fishing straight away.

In less than three minutes, he caught a sharp-nosed fish.

Not even two minutes later, he landed a yellow croaker.

Shu Ran’s face was instantly filled with amazement: "Dear, you’re incredible!"

Zhang Jingdong pursed his lips, "This is nothing yet."

In the next ten minutes, Zhang Jingdong caught six different fish in succession, three of which were over two pounds in size.

Shu Ran was utterly dazzled: "Dear, you’re so talented, always bringing me new surprises each time!"

Zhang Jingdong smiled nonchalantly: "Of course, how else am I going to be Teacher Shu’s man? Come on, let’s start cooking!"

Twenty minutes later, Zhang Jingdong handed a well-grilled yellow croaker to Shu Ran: "Try it!"

Shu Ran took it, cautiously tasted a bite, and then quickly gave Zhang Jingdong a thumbs up: "Delicious! Dear, your outdoor survival skills are too strong!"

Zhang Jingdong said with double meaning: "My skills are not just limited to outdoor survival when I’m in the wild; I’m even stronger in other areas!"

Shu Ran’s face turned slightly red: "I... haven’t experienced that yet."

Ten minutes later, the two finished lunch, handed the site over to Long Yue and went to the nearby woods to look for wild fruit.

Finally, under a wild apple tree, Zhang Jingdong seriously gave Shu Ran a lesson on identifying wild fruits.

Thanks to Zhang Jingdong’s display of skill earlier, Shu Ran studied particularly seriously.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingdong gave her a tiny bit of a reward in the end.

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully making a creative contact with the target person in a special environment, rewarded with 5 million yuan!"
