The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite

Chapter 104: Chapter 103: Insider Reveals, Actually She… Chapter 104: Chapter 103: Insider Reveals, Actually She… “No,” everyone shook their heads.

“Okay, since no one has any objections, let’s go ahead with these groups.”

Jing Hao continued, “Then we will…”

But he stopped mid-sentence and suddenly turned to Min Xiasha.

“Everyone can volunteer, but Min Xiasha, you can choose first.”

To prevent Min Xiasha from grumbling later, Jing Hao decided to start with her.

Others had no objections either because everyone knew what Min Xiasha was like.

Although she had apologized yesterday and promised to turn over a new leaf, everyone still didn’t want to take the risk.

However, this time Min Xiasha had learned her lesson and planned to keep a low profile for a while; she couldn’t always be playing the drama queen on the show.

So she smiled and shook her head, “I don’t have any special skills, let everyone else choose first. I’ll go wherever I’m needed in the end!”

Jing Hao didn’t want to waste too much time on her, so he nodded.

“Does anyone else want to volunteer?”

Xu He was the first to speak up, “I’ll stay and fix the enclosure; I got the hang of it yesterday. But I can’t finish this task alone; I need at least one more helper. Xiasha, do you want to join?”

For the same reason as Jing Hao, Xu He asked Min Xiasha first.

But Min Xiasha didn’t want to be partnered with Xu He.

Because Xu He was a washed-up singer with few fans, staying with him would certainly not bring her any attention.

Therefore, Min Xiasha declined with a smile, “Ah… I’ll pass on fixing the fence; I’ve done enough of that yesterday. Why don’t you ask someone else?”

It was just as well she refused; Xu He also didn’t want her company.

He then looked to Qin Yan and Wenyan, “How about the other two ladies?”

Qin Yan immediately discussed it with Wenyan, “They don’t know where the water source is; one of us should take them to find it, while the other stays here. I’ll stay today.”

Wenyan nodded in agreement, “Okay, I’ll take them out to look for water.”

With that, the first group was settled.

Next, Jing Hao immediately said, “Then I’ll take the empty buckets with Wenyan, and we need another man, because water is heavy.”

This left Yin Haoyu and Shen Jingchuan to make their choices.

However, Yin Haoyu didn’t want to be separated from Min Xiasha, so he remained silent.

Shen Jingchuan also did not choose to join the second group because he was going fishing.

“Since I chose the fishhooks and line, it can’t go to waste. If I can catch a few big fish, we can have a feast today.”

Jing Hao nodded, “Then Yin Haoyu, you come with our group.”

Yin Haoyu had no choice but to comply with this arrangement.

After this round of planning, only Min Xiasha was left without a group.

Although she wasn’t currently getting along with Shen Jingchuan, she knew he was trending and had a strong online presence.

So even though she didn’t show it openly, she was secretly delighted.

“Looks like I can only team up with Alex then.”

Shen Jingchuan couldn’t care less about her, “Fine, then follow me. Hurry up, I don’t have time to wait for nobodies.”

Shen Jingchuan was true to his word.

With his long legs, he walked fast, and Min Xiasha struggled to keep within ten steps behind him.

Finally catching up, Min Xiasha decided to put on a good performance.

She approached Shen Jingchuan, “Alex, you weren’t there when I apologized to everyone yesterday, but actually, I already realized the mistake I made. Everyone else is willing to give me another chance, I hope you can too, okay?”

While speaking, she handed Shen Jingchuan a small tree twig, “This is the green olive branch I’m extending.”

Shen Jingchuan felt like vomiting, a green olive branch, my foot!

He didn’t even need to use his eyes to see; even by just thinking with his toes, he knew this woman was putting on a show.

What he couldn’t comprehend was how some people could be so two-faced and have such thick skins.

However, since she had already said as much, it seemed a bit unkind for him not to give her a chance.

“Sure,” Shen Jingchuan said with a cold smirk on his lips, “you know I came out here to fish, don’t you?”

“Of course.”

“And you know that fishing requires bait, right?”

“I obviously know that.”

“Then help me find some bait right now.”

“Alright, teach me,” Min Xiasha looked up at Shen Jingchuan with a sweet smile on her face.

Shen Jingchuan glanced at her, hoping she could still manage to smile later on.

“In the wild, bait mainly comes from earthworms and various insects. You can find earthworms under rocks, and insects and grasshoppers are all over the trees and bushes. Let’s get started now.

“Of course, I also know many girls are afraid of insects and earthworms. So I advise you, if you’re scared too, then you should keep your distance from me right now, go find some other food, and stop following me.”

In fact, Min Xiasha’s face had already changed color at the mention of earthworms and various insects.

But she had resolved to make a good impression and was just struggling to find an excuse to refuse Shen Jingchuan.

Now that she heard him speak those words, tears instantly began to well up in her eyes.

“You, have I done something wrong, Alex? I just want to contribute to the team. Why are you so mean when you talk to me? I’m really trying to change.”

“Hah, acting! Keep on acting! You think I’m blind? You’ve already seen my temper and way of doing things yesterday. Being assigned to the same group as me, your wisest choice is to stay far away and out of my sight.”

“But we are a team! Didn’t everyone use this to teach me a lesson when I made a mistake yesterday? If you despise me so much, why did you all agree to be in the same group as me?”

Shen Jingchuan scoffed, “Because I had no choice! And keeping you close can work too, it’s better than letting you mess with others. Anyway, I’m not going to be merciful towards you.”

Viewer comments: ‘What, did I hear that right? Alex dropped a curse word, but to be fair, Min Xiasha has been so dramatic today, playing all sorts of roles, that curse was well-deserved, I want to say the same!’

‘Mom, how can Min Xiasha change her act every day? Yesterday she was so bitchy, today she’s all dramatic.'”

‘She’s really talented, haven’t you noticed? No matter who she teams up with, there’s always drama. I think she’s the key to this show’s ratings.’

‘Am I the only one who caught the blind spot? Hahaha, did you hear what Alex just said?’

‘He said keeping you by my side prevents you from causing trouble to others. That ‘others’ must refer to Wenyan, right?’

‘He really dotes on her! I love a man with a fiery temper, when can the civil affairs bureau issue me a husband like that?’

‘What should I do? I really want to soul-swap with Wenyan now.’

Just then, a viewer with the nickname ‘Wenyan’s College Classmate’ suddenly chimed in.

‘Don’t talk about you, I also want to soul-swap with Wenyan. I’ve wanted to since our college days.’

‘Her family seems quite wealthy. Before, I saw comments in the live stream calling her a country bumpkin, but she’s definitely not. Her family is in good conditions.’

‘And what you see as Wenyan now, strictly speaking, cannot actually be considered her real name.’

‘Ah? Hey, you in front! Stop! Are you really Wenyan’s college classmate? Tell us more! If she’s not Wenyan, then what’s her name?’

‘Wenyan’s College Classmate: I shouldn’t say more, everyone just watch the live broadcast.’

‘Come on, I’ll give you a hundred bucks, please tell me.’

However, after saying that, the person really didn’t make another comment!

This moved the viewers’ curiosity to an even higher level!

In regards to Wenyan, they felt like they had learned a bit, but not much! This was truly more frustrating than being unable to find any information about Wenyan online before!
