Save my man, why does he always turn out to be the savior?

Chapter 266 Live Broadcast of National Fortune: The Male Lead's Fiancée Who Was Rejected VS. Hu

Chen Zhengyuan clenched his fist, pursed his lips, and was about to say something to Su Jinyue when he was stopped by shouts that grew louder as they approached.

"Boss! Boss! Are you alright?" Pei Chuyuan rushed over, still shaken, and said, "Boss, what just happened? You were so far away from the beasts, how did you end up in the center of them in the blink of an eye?..."

Pei Chuyuan's arrival disrupted the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere between Su Jinyue and Chen Zhengyuan, and their attention was drawn to the beast herd.

Su Jinyue glanced into the distance and saw Sun Siqi, who had replaced her in Su Jinyue's original position, her expression turning cold.

"I must have been switched by Sun Siqi through some means; it's obvious she swapped my position with hers."

Pei Chuyuan exclaimed, "Ah, this person is too vicious! She's always disliked you, boss, and now, to save herself, she's chosen to drag you down with her..."

Chen Zheng arrived late; all he saw was Su Jinyue among the beasts. He knew nothing of what had happened before.

Based on his companion's words, Chen Zhengyuan frowned. It turned out that there were other hidden reasons behind her being surrounded by the beasts.

Chen Zhengyuan asked in a deep voice, "What exactly happened?"

Pei Chuyuan looked at his boss, then at the person who had saved his boss, and only then did he belatedly realize that the two seemed to know each other.

"And this is..." Pei Chuyuan asked, glancing at Su Jinyue.

Su Jinyue sighed and explained, "This is Chen Zhengyuan, one of the mission takers from China. We've met in real life. Just tell me what's going on; there's no need to hide anything."

After listening to Su Jinyue's explanation, Chen Zhengyuan glanced at her without saying a word of rebuttal.

Su Jinyue and Chen Zhengyuan didn't know each other at all before, but the current situation in the national event live broadcast is not suitable for them to reenact the process of going from strangers to acquaintances.

Since she and Chen Zhengyuan had already reached an understanding, they would pretend that they had already met in real life. That way, no matter how familiar they seemed with each other, it wouldn't seem strange to anyone.

Based on her understanding of Chen Zhengyuan, she knew that Chen Zhengyuan would not expose the truth that they did not know each other at all.

Pei Chuyuan knew that Chen Zhengyuan was one of his own, so he felt relieved and then told Chen Zhengyuan about what had just happened.

Chen Zhengyuan was very good at extracting information. In just a few words, he managed to get the reason why Sun Siqi was targeting Su Jinyue and the fact that Qi Yaoting was Su Jinyue's ex-fiancé from Pei Chuyuan.

Having learned the whole story, Chen Zhengyuan felt only heartache for Su Jinyue.

However, Chen Zhengyuan simply cannot show it now!

It was getting late, and the sky was gradually darkening. The group decided to first clean up the killed wild animals and the scene before finding a place to discuss what to do next.

Fortunately, these wild animals are all normal animals, and now that there are many people, it's a good time to deal with them and use them as their future food reserves.

The three split up and began dealing with the wild beast.

Qi Yaoting, whom we hadn't had time to deal with before, also appeared at this time. He was quite lucky; the beast horde wasn't targeting him, and he dodged their initial attack. Later, Chen Zhengyuan appeared.

Qi Yaoting only injured his leg while dodging, but otherwise he was fine!

Sun Siqi, who had been hiding in the distance, slowly walked back after seeing that the beasts had been driven back and that they were all safe.

Sun Siqi knew that what she was doing was too obvious, but firstly, she didn't dare to leave alone, and secondly, this new person was so capable that if she left, wouldn't that benefit Su Jinyue?

She wouldn't do something so stupid!

So, even knowing her situation was awkward, Sun Siqi still came back.

Moreover, after just a fleeting glimpse, Sun Siqi was captivated by this incomparably handsome and capable man.

Sun Siqi was originally from the bottom of society. The highest-ranking person she knew was Qi Yaoting. Unexpectedly, there was someone more handsome and powerful than Qi Yaoting!

Compared to this person, what else does Qi Yaoting have besides being a rich second-generation?

Sun Siqi, if she's going to look for someone, she'll look for the most powerful person!

After being transformed by the interdimensional red envelope group, Sun Siqi became full of confidence in herself. Even Qi Yaoting was so infatuated with her that he broke off his engagement with Su Jinyue. She believed that this person would also be unable to escape her charm!

Sun Siqi headed straight for Chen Zhengyuan, and the closer she got, the more infatuated she became with this man.

This man has a completely different temperament from Qi Yaoting. Compared to Qi Yaoting, he is more ruthless, acts with the style of a soldier, and exudes a noble and indescribable air.

Sun Siqi was truly captivated by him. She walked up to Chen Zheng and stammered out a message.

"Um, hello..."

Sun Siqi had only just begun to speak when Chen Zhengyuan's cold, sharp gaze shot over her, making her heart tremble. The rest of her words caught in her throat, and she could no longer utter a sound.

Sun Siqi swallowed hard and quietly took two steps back. The look that person had given her just now really chilled her to the bone. She felt that if she dared to continue speaking, the other person would dare to take her life immediately!

So, for the sake of her own life, Sun Siqi wisely avoided the situation.

She then met up with Qi Yaoting, who was limping over. Sun Siqi felt that the man was too cold, and she should maintain a good relationship with Qi Yaoting. Of all these people, she was most confident in Qi Yaoting.

It took Su Jinyue and the other two an hour to deal with these beasts.

After finishing packing, Su Jinyue opened the system panel of the National Fortune Live broadcast and discovered that the second phase of the mission had ended sometime earlier.

The mission is over, which means the live stream has stopped, and now there is a three-day safe period.

Without the live broadcast monitoring, Su Jinyue instantly felt much more at ease.

It was getting late, so Chen Zhengyuan led the four men back to his cave.

Chen Zhengyuan lit a campfire. Dinner would be wild game meat. Since they had hunted so many wild animals today, Chen Zhengyuan would be generous tonight and give everyone a sufficient amount.

Once the meat is cooked, that's their own responsibility; he won't take responsibility for that.

As for staple food, everyone has points, so they can just buy it directly from the system store on the National Fortune Live broadcast. He has no obligation to take care of that too.

While grilling the meat, Chen Zhengyuan secretly observed Su Jinyue sitting next to him. He thought that if Su Jinyue didn't know how to grill, he would give her his meat first.

Unfortunately, Su Jinyue was very good at grilling meat, and she even prepared the spices for grilling and generously shared them with me.

Chen Zhengyuan tasted the roasted meat with spices, and it was indeed much tastier than the meat without spices.

Chen Zhengyuan was pleased that Su Jinyue was doing well, but also somewhat disappointed that he hadn't been able to help her.
