Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 48 - All the Bitter Teas Have Been Taken Away
Chapter 48: Chapter 48 All the Bitter Teas Have Been Taken Away
The fact was indeed so.
He Yun felt guilty for initially ignoring Jiang Li on purpose, and with her calm and composed demeanor proving herself, he completely changed his view of this graceful and knowledgeable girl.
That’s why he gave her the Perfect Card right off the bat.
Qi Tianyu was even more so; the handwritten Buddhist Scripture had already made him admire Jiang Li immensely, and due to the guilt of his intentional difficulty, he also gave her the Perfect Card without hesitation.
Only Jiang Yan gave the Five-point card with some reluctance.
His leg was still faintly aching, and because he was forced to join the show, he had to cancel many plans, directly diminishing half his fun.
By all means, he should have stuffed the one-point card into her box without hesitation.
But the moment he picked up the card, he hesitated.
If he, as her brother, gave her just one point, knowing the truth would hurt her feelings.
After all, the uproar online hadn’t subsided, and her arch-enemy Wen Jiaojiao was also present.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan could only grit his teeth and swap the one-point card for a Five-point card.
…
Truth revealed, all voices of doubt were effortlessly dispelled.
[It’s kind of funny, what’s going on? What would Jiang Yan’s face look like if he knew Jiang Li gave him the one-point card without a second thought?]
[Boo hoo, suddenly I think Jiang Yan is quite nice as a person, apart from being a bit arrogant, but at least his heart isn’t bad.]
[Jiang Li quietly doing great things, ah, she’s hardly said a word but has captured all the male guests’ “hearts”.]
[That’s what Jiang Li deserves; our Miss Jiang Li has always been honest and straightforward, of course she would gain favor.]
[Jiang Li even gave the Five points to Mr. He, I shouldn’t say anything about her, Mr. He approves of her, so as a fan, I must too love the house for the sake of the crow!]
[But don’t you think it’s strange? How could the staff mistakenly count two extra points for Jiang Li with such clear footage?]
Unfortunately, as soon as this comment was posted, it was pushed up and drowned out by the multitude of other comments, with no one paying it any attention.
Over at Chixia Village, since there was still a lot left on the itinerary, Director Sun didn’t dwell on this minor incident.
After scolding the staff in charge of tallying the scores, he quickly grabbed his megaphone and returned to his station.
“It’s getting late; after a bit more tidying up, let’s get ready to enter the village.”
“Now that the results have been announced, let’s talk about the rewards and punishments.”
[Had totally forgotten about this part.]
[Let’s see what kind of rewards the production team can come up with.]
[Knowing Director Sun’s style, it’s definitely nothing good.]
The guests were gradually getting the hang of the production team’s tactics too, none of them were interested in what Director Sun referred to as “rewards.”
“The sun has set, I’m about to die of hunger, can we get moving?” Wen Jiaojiao couldn’t help complaining.
Nothing had gone her way since the start of the show.
And in the end, Jiang Li got lucky and came out on top.

However, there was one small consolation; she wasn’t last and therefore no punishment.
Shu Yan thought the same but glanced at Jiang Li beside her and sighed in sympathy.
“The reward isn’t going to be related to the male guests, is it? If that was the case, I’d have known not to give her four points.”
“It’s not,” said Jiang Yan with hands on hips, “does no one here care about me at all? Why on earth give me the lowest score?!”
Everyone simultaneously looked away.
“We’re on a transformation reality show, and since it’s a rural experience, there naturally have to be rules,” Director Sun said, squinting his eyes. “I see everyone has brought quite a bit of luggage, so to ensure that you all get the full experience, a portion of your luggage will need to be handed over. Besides, everyone’s phones will be replaced with special smartphones provided by the production team—except for Jiang Li, who is free to use his own phone.”
“What?!”
Aside from Jiang Li and He Yun, the four of them exclaimed in unison.
Director Sun continued to smile, “Of course, as a reward, first-place winner Jiang Li doesn’t need to hand over anything, and will also receive a mysterious grand prize specially prepared by our production team.”
“Why?!” Wen Jiaojiao yelled, “Director, you’re playing favorites. Why does Jiang Li get all the good stuff?”
Qi Tianyu finally lost his patience, “Ms. Wen, do us a favor and keep it down. Like the director said, it’s a reward for Jiang Li’s first place. Besides, it’s just handing over some luggage, no big deal.”
“Easy for you guys to say,” Shu Yan pouted discontentedly, “Each item in our luggage is precious to us girls. Handing them over would be the end of it.”
She had brought half a suitcase of makeup and skincare products. Wouldn’t it be like forcing her to jump off a cliff if they were taken away?
Qi Tianyu said nothing and turned his gaze back to Director Sun.
“Director, go on and tell us about the punishment.”
Hearing this, Wen Jiaojiao stopped being angry and pricked up her ears immediately.
The only thing that could make her happy now was seeing Jiang Yan, whom she equally disliked, suffer a setback.
Director Sun chuckled twice, “Naturally, last place has to hand over everything.”
“What?!” Jiang Yan leaped to his feet, “Everything? Are you sure you didn’t misspeak?”
To prove his “word is bond,” Director Sun immediately gave a cue to the staff.
The next second, a strapping man who was 190 centimeters tall, covered in muscles and a stern face, stepped out of the crowd and took Jiang Yan’s suitcase without a word.
Jiang Yan: ?
After being stunned for three seconds, he was completely flabbergasted.
“No, my clothes are still in there! You’re just taking it? What will I wear?!”
“Ah, about that,” Director Sun pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, “That’s beyond our responsibility. You’ll need to solve that on your own.”
Jiang Yan: ?
What do you mean solve it on my own?
“Oh, right, I forgot one thing,” Director Sun suddenly slapped his head.
Jiang Yan sneered, “It’s not too late for you to regret taking my stuff and apologize to me.”
Director Sun pointed to the previous strongman, “Go take his phone too.”
[Hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter, rolling around on the couch, my mom’s asking if I’m having a seizure.]
[Why is Jiang Yan so miserable, the punishment for last place is so harsh. I’m glad my idol isn’t at the bottom.]
[The production team is so cruel, hiring a muscular man to confiscate stuff. Jiang Yan can’t even curse out loud, I’m dying, even his bitter tea leaves were taken.]
Meanwhile, Jiang Yan was still trying to outwit the muscular man who had come to take his phone.
On the other side, Shu Yan and Wen Jiaojiao also started making a fuss.
As the third and second to last, they had quite a bit taken away as well. Makeup and skincare products were completely gone, and half of their nice clothes and shoes as well.
He Yun and Qi Tianyu didn’t complain much, just frowned when the production team took away the compressed food they’d brought.
Only Jiang Li sat leisurely on his suitcase, watching the commotion with a detached air.
[Such a stark contrast on camera, five people feeling dejected, and there’s Jiang Li, beaming and composed, not looking at all like she’s here for a rural transformation.]
[Why does this scene strike me as so funny?]
[Discussing the vacation-style presence of Miss Jiang Li, calm as a maiden, alongside her five tortured teammates.]
