The Trending Topic Herself: The Villainess is the Superstar!-Chapter 109: Maya Monroe Is Here to Put the Crew in Their Place

But to everyone’s surprise, Maya didn’t ask a single question. She simply carried the materials she’d collected and walked ahead, her pace a bit slower than before, perhaps due to the load in her hands.

The staff were prepared to follow Maya around in circles in the tropical rainforest and had even contacted the medical team to be on standby.

But nobody expected that Maya’s seemingly aimless wandering was actually taking her precisely back towards the base camp, not deviating at all from her original route.

What an astonishing sense of direction and memory...

Maya remained unaware of this. In a certain sense, she was very similar to Miles Wallace, both highly confident in their own choices and thinking, rarely influenced by external factors.

The guide, who was watching the group of five intensely discussing in the base camp, suddenly froze, because he saw Maya returning with a pile of materials, and it was only a short moment since she had left. No one expected her to be this fast. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The oddest thing was Maya’s composed demeanor as she walked forward, with the photographer and the lighting technician behind her drenched in sweat and gasping for breath.

The guide exchanged a glance with the director not far away, and after asking the staff who accompanied Maya the reason for this, both of their expressions were complicated, remaining silent for quite a while.

In the initial design of the program, the production team had set more than one difficulty for the guests. After all, that’s one of their selling points: the more the guests cry, the more active the fans are, and the more popular their show becomes. Among the many entertainment-oriented shows, "Great Survival Challenge" gained such great success precisely by taking a different angle from the usual variety entertainment audience.

But who knew that the carefully planned difficulties became completely ineffective when confronted with Maya...

Maya’s surprises were indeed better and better each time...

[Little Cutie: Oh my god, how did Maya get back?! This memory is just too incredible!]

[No One: I’m also shocked. In the last season, artists often sought help from the production team because they got lost, and the team wouldn’t immediately provide help, leaving the guests to squat and cry... Finally, someone who can handle the production team!]

[Maya: Hahaha, perhaps Maya is here to counter the production team?]

[Put Up with It: Can we cut to the director’s face, please? I want to see his expression right now (smirk)]

[Bystander: Just caught a glimpse of the photographer’s face, good gracious, it’s all red, and the sweat is about to drip onto his clothes—probably because he was chasing Maya just now. I must say, Maya’s athleticism is really impressive!]

[The Wooden Man Can’t Talk: Here’s a sincere suggestion for the production team to recruit some athletes to train in photography skills, just to follow and film Maya.]

[Maya: Hahaha, the photographer says it’s never been this difficult before!]

Jessica Young and the others also noticed Maya’s return. They really didn’t expect that while they were still discussing strategies and methods here, Maya had already come back fully stocked.

Jessica cautiously asked, "Did Maya already use her help opportunity?"

Jamie shook his head, "I don’t think so. If Monroe really used a help opportunity, she would’ve directly asked for a tent."

Jessica thought about it and agreed. Although Maya seemed disorganized, she was actually more scheming and smarter than anyone.

It’s just...they didn’t even dare to go too far, yet Maya managed to bring back so much material in such a short time—it was truly incredible...

Simply unbelievable...

Justin Morgan pondered for a moment, watching Maya, who had already started setting up a tent nearby: "Why don’t we bring Maya back? Another person means more strength!"

Miles Wallace had just been standing silently, but when he heard Justin’s words, he gave him a cold look, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Justin noticed Miles’s gaze and felt a bit chilled by the piercing blue eyes staring at him, but he managed to speak up, "Miles, what do you mean? Are you saying you disagree with me? I’m your senior; how can a junior look at a senior like that? Do you understand the rules?!"

Miles’s gaze remained cold as he stared at him without speaking.

Claire Brooks once said that Miles wasn’t suitable for being a celebrity because his emotions were too obvious, showing his likes and dislikes openly, and no one could make him hold back even a little.

Jamie frowned. After all this time, he had lost patience with Justin: "Don’t get angry, it’s not a big deal."

"How can this be a small matter? Does he think that just because he’s released a few albums and can wiggle his hips, he’s invincible? I’m teaching him the rules!"

"He doesn’t need you to teach him the rules," Miles spoke up. He seldom spoke, but this time when he did, it was filled with anger, his beautiful eyes flashing with a cold light.

Justin was a coward, and when Miles got angry like this, he had nothing more to say.

"...What was I saying earlier? Get Maya...right, get Maya, let her join us."

"Better not. If Monroe likes to operate alone, then we shouldn’t disturb her," Jamie, with a tone of irritation, pulled Justin away, annoyed at how the seemingly well-regarded Justin could turn out to be such a lousy person.

The important thing is that it’s not just an understanding between the guests; so many viewers, so many pairs of eyes are watching closely. No wonder "Great Survival Challenge" is called the "Mirror of Truth" for celebrities, as many two-faced stars reveal their true selves.

Justin was unwilling: "Jamie, we currently have no capital to survive. If we brought Maya back, we could live a bit better in the tropical rainforest for these few days."

Despite the others trying to stop him, Justin directly approached Maya and again expressed his views.

Maya was tidying up the campsite at that moment, removing rocks and tree roots from the uneven ground to make it as flat as possible. She deliberately stayed a little further from the production team and other guests because she disliked noisy environments.

Hearing Justin’s words, Maya put down the branch in her hand and couldn’t help but laugh.

Justin felt a surge of happiness, thinking the matter was possible, and continued enthusiastically: "You know the principle of strength in numbers; only if the six of us are together can we maximize our strength. It’s good to help each other with anything, and if we collect materials, we’ll definitely share them with you, don’t worry. Of course...if you have materials, it’s only right to share them with us."

"I just came over to advise you because I think it’s unsafe for a young girl like you to be here by yourself. You should join us in our activities!"

Suddenly, a stone flew over, its sharp edges hitting right next to Justin’s foot.
