The Female Lead Has No Cheats

Chapter 218 - Punished with “Food Like Sh*t” (1)

Ch.218 Punished with “Food Like Sh*t” (1)

After a moment of embarrassment, Leita coughed and let out a shameless laugh, then he looked down at his bowl and stopped talking.

He planned to let that dumb laugh disperse the awkwardness in the air.

The chat screen for the live broadcast was swimming with comments.

“Hahaha, I’m dead! This is the best! Sure enough, no one can escape Wang Jingze’s Law!”

(T/N:  Wang Jingze is an internet celebrity famous for his reform from an extremely rowdy and foul-mouthed young man. When he threatened to leave his village, the village head told him to stay for a meal, to which he responded, “I, Wang Jingze, would rather starve, die outside, or jump off a cliff than eat a single bite of your food!” However, when he got hungry enough, he ate the food and even said “smells good.” This was later dubbed “Wang Jingze’s Law,” or the “Smells Good Law”.)

“Hahaha, Qiqi is really vengeful. Qiqi, you have to be careful not to offend too many people! Since you’re abroad right now, you have to think before you act! You can’t always be so straightforward.”

“Hey, am I the only one who got the main point? At first, I thought that Li Muruo was king and Qiqi was bronze,** but it turns out that Qiqi was the real king! She looked so cool when she was catching the snake! I think I’m going to fall in love, Qiqi, I want to marry you! “

(** Bronze refers to the lowest rank, the weakest role, while king is the highest rank, the strongest, most important role.)

“I did too. Lin Yueqi seems like she knows how to do everything, and her practical ability is so much stronger than Li Muruo’s! Qiqi not only knows how to catch wild fish but also how to make bow and arrows, and catch snakes with her bare hands. Who wouldn’t like such a strong woman? Excuse me, but I’m going to kneel down for her! “

“Seriously! Lin Yueqi is so impressive, and her practical ability is at MAX! Sure, Li Muruo’s food videos are great, but that’s all she knows how to do. Now that she’s in the real wilderness, her fancy cooking skills are a little… ummm… She cooks, and the men do everything else for her. She didn’t even wash her own ingredients, while Lin Yueqi caught her own fish! Her chicken soup did look really good, but it was also really…. unrealistic. I don’t know how to describe it, it just looked too good to be real. Lin Yueqi’s snake soup, on the other hand, looks so homey and authentic.”

“Yeah, and it won’t cause food poisoning! Also, Lin Yueqi is definitely an old hand at catching snakes. I remember having to catch king rat snakes like that when I lived in the countryside, but I never dared to use my bare hands. You’re so awesome, Qiqi!”

Thanks to Lin Yueqi’s valiant display, ”Natural Storm” went viral only two days after going live.

#Who dares to go against the valiant Lin Yueqi

#Sexy mom Lin Yueqi makes mercenaries cry

#Li Muruo nearly kills people with food poisoning, awkward as hell…

As soon as these three topics started trending, the collective response for the first two was “ahahaha, I am now a fan of Lin Yueqi”.

The response on Li Muruo’s end was the exact opposite. There weren’t many people watching the show live. After all, there was no editing. Most netizens were afraid that it would be too boring, so they would rather wait for the filming to finish.

In the video that was trending, the food poisoning accident was shown. The parts where Li Muruo was cooking were deliberately cut out so only the clips of everyone getting sick remained.

The netizens were enraged when they saw the video.

“Li Muruo is actually sick! What kind of chef is that careless?”

“Did Li Muruo go abroad so she could humiliate herself?”

“Goodness, that scared me to death! Fortunately, everyone is OK! Li Muruo seems so conceited and overconfident, plus I get the feeling that she’s trying to sabotage Lin Yueqin? I don’t know whether her relationship with Lu Ting is true or false, but if I were Lu Ting, I would have to be blind to like a woman like her.”

“+1, Lu Ting would have to be blind to like a woman like her.”

As the number of people cursing at Li Muruo grew, a well-known director suddenly posted a Weibo. The director was a fan of Li Muruo, and, like Li Xiujie, he believed that food poisoning was a completely normal occurrence in the wild. It was unfair for one person to have to take responsibility when the mistake should be shouldered by the entire team.

Afterward, a group of both famous and not-so-famous actors and actresses followed suit and started to like and comment on his post.

Once again, Li Muruo’s connections were working to help her, even when she wasn’t in the country and couldn’t speak for herself.

Before long, after thinking that the director’s words made sense, the netizens calmed down.

And with that, the show went on.

***

In the following week, the team was too busy for Li Muruo to redeem herself. They ate either dry biscuits or wild berries that were picked from the bushes during their trek.

Every day, they would get less than 5 hours of sleep and wake up to continue on their way at 5 a.m. before the sun rose. It was very tiring.

On the ninth day, they finally reached the destination on the map.

Unfortunately, they failed to find any recent traces of the wild elephants. Judging from the feces that were left behind, they had left as early as half a month ago.

By now, all of their dry food was gone, which meant they would have to rely on the jungle and their own hunting skills for food.

In order to ensure sufficient ammunition, Lin Yueqi proposed to only use bullets if they encountered a wild beast. Otherwise, they should use the bow and arrows made by her and Lu Ting. Ever since he was slapped in the face by Wang Jingze’s Law, Leita’s attitude toward Lin Yueqi had changed greatly. He was always courteous, even offering to carry her bags.
