Huh? Are villainous bosses this easy to flirt with?

Chapter 21 Imaginary Enemy

With nothing to do, Xie Qing sat to the side, and her eyes paused when she saw Su Li starting a fire.

Wait a minute, what is he doing? Is he tearing up books?

Xie Qing stood up, walked closer, and realized the case was solved: he was indeed tearing up books.

Su Li noticed Xie Qing coming over and, like a child showing off, said, "Brother, I've started the fire."

As he spoke, he added firewood to the fire, making it burn even brighter.

Xie Qing raised an eyebrow when she saw the exercise book that Su Li had torn down to just a few pages and placed aside.

I've watched Su Li's live stream. He always uses this method to start a fire. His mom brought him three homework books, one of which was his summer homework. Now only a few pages are left after it's burned.

[This kid's something else! He openly burned his homework, doing what I wanted to do but didn't dare to.]

[I wonder if Su Li's mother is in the live stream. I wonder what she thinks if she sees this. Won't she be scolded to death when she gets back?]

At this moment, an ID named "Su Li's Mom" ​​posted a comment.

I won't scold him; instead, I'll praise him for being flexible and not so rigid. Special circumstances require special handling. He's participating in a survival reality show, and in this situation, as long as it doesn't violate his principles or bottom line, I'll support him in doing anything that benefits his survival.

[Waaaaah... I wish I had a mom like that.]

At the age when I felt most helpless, I encountered the kind of internet-savvy mom I longed for. I can't even imagine how cheerful I would have been if my mom had been just a little more open-minded.

If it were my mom, she would definitely scold me. If I said I was under too much pressure and didn't want to study anymore, she would just say, "I've worked so hard to support your education, and this is how you repay me?" If I said I was depressed, she would say I was faking it and tell me to go back to school. Does she love me? Of course she loves me, but she doesn't love me either.

[Hey upstairs, let me give you a hug]

【...】

Seeing Xie Qing looking at the homework he had placed on the ground, Su Li scratched his head and said, "Well, this is the only way I know how to start a fire. It's easier for me this way."

Xie Qing had a faint smile on her lips. "I didn't say it was bad, why are you so nervous?"

"Any method will do as long as we can get the fire going."

On the other side, three people came over carrying the prepared rabbit meat.

"Here it comes, the rabbit meat is here. We can skewer it and grill it now." Liang Shun walked over carrying the rabbit meat.

Xie Qing made a few cuts in the meat with a knife, then skewered the rabbit meat and placed it on a homemade tree branch to roast, turning it occasionally to ensure the rabbit meat was heated evenly.

As time goes by, the rabbit meat gradually turns golden and crispy, with the surface sizzling and releasing an enticing aroma.

The rich aroma seemed to have a life of its own, spreading freely and quickly entering everyone's nasal cavity, causing Su Li to salivate incessantly.

Su Li exclaimed excitedly as she smelled the aroma of roasted meat filling the air. "It smells so good! It smells so good!"

Seeing that the rabbit meat was almost cooked, Xie Qing let it cool for a while before picking up one of the cooked rabbits and handing it to the two girls.

Chen Mo quickly waved her hand, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Qiqi and I can't eat that much."

Fan Qi quickly nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, we can't eat that much meat."

Xie Qing: "It's okay, you can eat as much as you want, and we'll take care of the rest."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo's face flushed slightly, and she nodded gently. At the same time, she secretly glanced at Xie Qing and saw that he was intently fiddling with the roasted meat in his hands. Her heart couldn't help but flutter again.

Chen Mo thought no one would notice her little tricks, but nowadays netizens watch live streams with a 'microscope' and nothing can hide from their eyes.

Does Momo have a crush on Xie Qing? She's blushing.

Momo blushes easily, this doesn't mean anything.

[Tonic, oh tonic... My white moonlight, do you like him, tonic?]

If Momo likes someone like Xie Qing, well... I could accept it. Putting everything else aside, his face alone is simply unparalleled.

[Nonsense, Momo is the only one who's good.]

【...】

In Chen Mo's live stream, fans were having a heated discussion about whether their Momo liked Xie Qing, while in Xie Qing's live stream, the barrage of comments was all about "good taste".

After eating, Zuli regained her energy and ran around the beach like a husky, saying she wanted to collect crabs to bring back for an extra meal.

Liang Shun followed along, hoping to catch some fish.

The two girls didn't go; they were setting up their own tents. Fan Qi was quite skilled at setting up her tent, while Chen Mo, standing next to her, was clearly not as good at it.

Xie Qing watched for a while, but couldn't bear to watch any longer. She felt that the tent would collapse if it continued to be set up, so she took the initiative to ask, "Do you need any help?"

Chen Mo paused for a moment, seemingly realizing that the question was directed at her. She glanced at the messy tent and nodded sheepishly.

Xie Qing stepped forward and skillfully began setting up the tent. After about seven or eight minutes, the tent was up. He took a few steps back, exhaled a breath of stale air, and asked, "How did you set up your tents before?"

“It’s Qiqi who has been helping me the whole time,” Chen Mo said truthfully.

Xie Qing looked at Fan Qi on the other side and found that she was staring at her with a strange look in her eyes, as if she had stolen something from Fan Qi.

Xie Qing's mind raced, as if she understood something. She looked at Chen Mo, then at Fan Qi.

OK, I understand.

Xie Qing spoke a few words to Chen Mo, then returned to his tent and took out a few fruits.

Pipi should be here soon! Is this enough?

Xie Qing's guess was correct. A moment later, that familiar figure ran over and snuggled close to Xie Qing's leg, as if she were being affectionate.

Xie Qing handed the fruit to Pipi, but Pipi didn't take it; instead, she ate it directly from his hand.

Xie patted its fluffy head and shook her head with a smile, "It's really spoiled and arrogant."

Ahhh, so gentle! I want to be that monkey! Ahhh!

I want my wife to pat my head.

[I'm telling you, he gently touched my head, and just as we were about to take things further, I woke up from the dream.]

【...】

When Chen Mo arrived, she saw Xie Qing smiling as she fed fruit to the little monkey in front of her.

For a moment, I was captivated by the smile on his face and forgot why I had come.

Xie Qing noticed her standing to the side in a daze and asked, "Is something the matter?"

His tone was polite yet distant.

Chen Mo snapped out of her daze and said, "Um, Qiqi and I picked some fruit earlier, quite a lot, so we brought you some."

Xie Qing politely declined, "No need, I have some here, thank you."

Chen Mo hadn't expected him to refuse, so she nodded stiffly, intending to go back, but then wanted to stay with Xie Qing a little longer, and asked, "Xie Qing, where did this monkey come from?"

“He’s a local, I call him Pipi.”

Chen Mo said "Oh," and was about to continue chatting when she heard Fan Qi calling her.

To avoid making Fan Qi anxious, Chen Mo hurriedly said, "I'm leaving now," and left.

Xie Qing thought to himself, it seems someone is treating him as a potential enemy!

He shrugged, stopped thinking about it, and continued to focus on feeding his little monkey.
