Chapter 523: Chapter 523: Are the Researchers Sweating Profusely Now?
"This is supposed to be a life-saving ’peace charm’ tailored for the future heir of the richest family fortunes—probably enough to buy him eight hundred lives. He wouldn’t dare let the other party take it off, risking that. If anything really happened, I guess the Gu Family would be the first to come looking for him!"
Behind him, Pei Ye: "...."
He recalled how the young master had subdued a lion with his bare hands at Saint Ambrose College and how he’d knocked out more than a dozen tough guys in the underground boxing ring to take the championship belt.
How come he didn’t know his body was so frail?
He Pingzhang in the director’s room: ? Frail since childhood?
Just the other day, the Gu Family’s private doctor had sent over Gu Yu’s medical check-up report to him, with all index normal to the point of disbelief. The doctor had even nodded repeatedly, praising his robust health.
Huh, when did this little master go and get so good at acting?
Zhao Lang, having successfully bluffed his way through, smiled satisfactorily.
The staff member also sighed in relief, then turned to face the man beside him, Pei Ye.
"Sir, you also need to hand over your things, as well as the backpack on your back—you can’t take any of that with you—"
As the staff member looked up, he locked eyes with Pei Ye, and a chill ran down his spine the next second.
Why is this man’s gaze so terrifying?
Zhao Lang was just backed by a strong family, but he still had a relatively kind face, and he spoke gently, very personable.
But this man following him was different.
His face was cold, his long eyes were filled with murderous intent, and not a trace of emotional fluctuation could be seen. He was like a robot set to a program.
The staff member subconsciously swallowed and quickly averted his gaze, trembling as he repeated himself.
"Th-that... Please turn over your personal items..."
With a "clang," the box in front of him gained a few more items.
The staff member took a closer look and couldn’t tear his gaze away.
What on earth are these things?! Darts, retractable daggers, silver needles, rings studded with spikes...
Is this person really here to participate in the show?
What normal person carries these things on them?!
"Do I need to take off the gloves too?"
The emotionless voice floated above the staff member’s head, nearly causing him to throw the box in his hands away.
"The, the gloves are fine, I guess, since they’re just a warming accessory."
However, the next second, he saw the man’s half-fingered leather gloves snap open to reveal sharp claws.
Staff member: "...."
Maybe he should just call the security to check...
[Amazing, how can this little brother hide so many dangerous items on him?]
[??? Don’t these things get searched during safety inspection?]
[Stay calm, they came by private plane, behind the Gu Family old mansion, there’s a mountain with several airfields built on it.]
[Thank you Wilderness Survival for showing me the strength of the wealthy.]
[So this little bro is Gu Yu’s bodyguard, looks badass, and not bad looking either.]
After a round of checking, Pei Ye came out of a small room on the side.
—Almost completely transformed from head to toe, his black trench coat was gone, replaced by a white T-shirt with "Chang’an Media" printed on it. The stylish black pants were gone too, traded for the same model of beach pants Jiang Yan had, and his boots had disappeared, now replaced by a pair of green canvas shoes from the last century.
It seems in fear of his expression scaring the audience again, under He Pingzhang’s signal, the staff member also brought him a red hat to wear.
Pei Ye stood completely still throughout, allowing them to dress him up.
Afterward, Zhao Lang fell into silence as he looked at his outfit.
"Maybe you shouldn’t come with me after all."
This mixed-style outfit standing next to him really brought down his value.
"No way," Pei Ye declared with a firm tone, "I was born to protect the young master."
Zhao Lang fell silent again.
There was no need for such chuunibyou lines in front of the camera.
"It’s going to get dark soon, let’s hurry up and go."
Zhao Lang didn’t want to waste any time and urged Pei Ye to move.
But the crew hurriedly called them to stop, "Wait, you haven’t taken your supplies yet."
Saying this, they threw a package to Pei Ye.
Pei Ye slung it on his back and then gestured for Zhao Lang to follow, and the two finally set foot on the island ahead.
Behind them, a drone rose into the air, tightly following the two.
Pei Ye was always sensitive to being followed, so occasionally the live broadcast viewers would receive a cold and warning glare from Pei Ye.
[Why do I feel like this live stream is eerily chill?]
[Whoa, it feels like I’m watching a horror stream, the bodyguard bro’s eyes are terrifying.]
[Even though I’m watching openly, I now feel a sense of shame like I’m peeping.]
Zhao Lang, who was walking ahead, was completely unaware of this.
His heart was full of anticipation about the scene that awaited him upon meeting Jiang Li.
Like the other guests, the program team had given him a watch symbolizing his identity.
Before coming, Zhao Lang had familiarized himself with the program’s mechanics and knew that each team had the right to view GPS coordinates.
But now he only had one other person with him, so his viewing privileges were limited to once, which was enough though.
After all, Jiang Li and the others were somewhere in a cave on this island and couldn’t run away in such a short time.
Zhao Lang excitedly opened the watch to check the location.
The netizens, unaware of the truth, thought that the young master was taking this Wilderness Survival seriously, even getting worked up just looking at the navigation.
Soon, the map displayed a small red dot, which was located to his northeast, approximately a one to two-hour walk away.
Zhao Lang grew even more excited, urging Pei Ye.
"Quick, quick, I know where it is."
"Where is it? Let me take the lead."
These Shadow Guards were specially trained, not only skilled in all kinds of weapons but also having excellent sense of direction.
Zhao Lang was well aware of this fact.
With Pei Ye around, he felt he could worry less.
So he handed the watch to him.
The moment Pei Ye saw the screen, he furrowed his brow.
Surprised to see him show any expression, Zhao Lang asked curiously, "What’s the matter? Is the place hard to find?"
"No," Pei Ye asked seriously, "Young master, are you testing me by showing me a blank thing?"
Zhao Lang: ?
He retracted his hand, only to see that the map, which had been flashing with a red dot, had turned into a blank screen.
He furrowed his brow too.
"What’s going on? Are the researchers at the company that incompetent? The smart bracelet breaks before it’s even used."
[Warning: time to fire the squid!]
[The researchers at Changhong Technology must be sweating buckets now, right?]
[I’m dying of laughter. What kind of luck does the Crown Prince have to be assigned a broken watch right at the start?]
However, just as Zhao Lang couldn’t reset it and even began to regret not bringing Zhou Xu along, a familiar voice came through the bracelet—
