The Novelist Forced to Become Famous

Chapter 333

Chen carried the blood-covered Li Journalist back to the hotel on his back.

Zha Doctor gave cursory treatment, fulfilling the professional ethics of a doctor, and that was it. Meanwhile, Jian Jing, Fei Na and Chen sat outside drinking coffee, exchanging wry smiles.

Fei Na: “I thought he would fall into the crocodile pond...”

Chen: “He’s unlucky.”

Jian Jing sighed.

Everyone wasn’t really illegally fishing, after all the jungle was so big, it was hard to prevent someone from really running away. However, they did make a plan B, that if anyone ran away, they would chase him to the crocodile pond - this idea was proposed by Fei Na, but no one else objected.

But plans can't keep up with changes. Li Journalist had probably scouted the surrounding terrain and avoided several pits.

Just when they thought things were going to get bad, retribution came.

The South China leopard that had wandered away from its territory wandered nearby, and it was just the right time of night for it to hunt.

Who is to blame?

“He deserved it,” Fei Na let out her resentment, feeling refreshed. “Since we saved him anyway, it's just his bad luck if he doesn't make it through.”

She looked forward to the meeting tomorrow: “We really have to deliver the pig.”

“Yeah, we can’t trick the cat...I mean trick the leopard.” Jian Jing was also very much looking forward to it.

Chen: “I’ll go.”

“No one can rob this from me,” Jian Jing said, “I want to personally deliver it.”

“Deliver what?” Kang Mu Cheng walked in, just in time to hear this sentence.

Jian Jing quickly said: “It’s nothing. Ah, it’s past three o'clock, I'm going to bed. He won't be able to run away again.”

Kang Mu Cheng was skeptical, but seeing her tired face, yawning again and again, he naturally didn't ask further: “Then go to bed quickly.”

She hastily slipped away.

The case was solved, the suspect was in the hospital bed, there really wasn’t anything left to worry about. As soon as Jian Jing got into bed, she fell into a deep sleep, without even noticing Knight coming over with a small blanket in his mouth.

The girl and the dog had a good sleep until noon the next day.

When she woke up, Li Journalist had already been taken to the hospital by the police who arrived early in the morning.

The system also completed the settlement in a timely manner.

After that, Mrs. Lao took Professor Lao’s body to the funeral home. She was responsible for cremation, funeral and other arrangements. Zha Doctor stayed behind and continued his part-time job.

With nothing to do, Jian Jing and Fei Na decided to go whitewater rafting.

When two girls got together, of course they would gossip.

Jian Jing asked: "Will Zha Doctor and Xiang Cao get married?"

"No," Fei Na said, "they don't really love each other."

"They admire each other."

"As friends they admire each other, but not necessarily as husband and wife," said Fei Na. “Perhaps this is the best, more than friends but less than lovers."

Jian Jing: “...Your Chinese is quite good.”

Fei Na: "I hope I can go to China next year. Your country is so big, with endangered animals everywhere."

"Welcome to China," Jian Jing said.

Fei Na was delighted: "Thank you, we're friends now, aren't we?"

"Of course." Jian Jing paused for a moment, suddenly hesitant, "Since we're friends, I have a, uh, small request..."

Fei Na: "?"

Jian Jing signaled with her eyes.

She understood instantly, giving an "ok" gesture.

A girl and a dog played in the water all day. At night, Knight lay down and Jian Jing still had to go feed the leopard.

She fulfilled her promise and brought half a frozen pig.

Kang Mu Cheng was shocked: "What are you going there for?"

Jian Jing: "BBQ?"

Him: "Jing Jing."

"Going out to play, Fei Na and Chen will be with me." She said.

Kang Mu Cheng was already suspicious. He deliberately asked, "What activity, I'll go too."

Fei Na couldn't help but giggled.

Jian Jing had no choice but to say, "Feeding the cat."

He slightly frowned, but seeing her and Fei Na making faces at each other, he barely held back what he wanted to say: “Come back soon.”

She heaved a sigh of relief.

The forest was as quiet as ever, the faint moonlight filtered through the sparse foliage, sprinkling the hazy shadows among the woods, as if entering another world.

Fei Na asked, "Jian, are you very afraid of Kang Mu Cheng?"

"He's always afraid I'll encounter danger. I don't want him to worry," said Jian Jing. “Although this is not very good, but I can't think of a better way.”

Fei Na: “Why not tell him honestly?”

Jian Jing did not answer this question. She kicked away the annoying branches under her feet and walked on.

After walking for an hour, they finally reached the place where they had parted yesterday.

The three people waited for a while without the leopard appearing.

Fei Na then said, "We're here, it doesn't dare to come out."

“Let’s move aside a little bit.” But Jian Jing wanted to try the power of the limited edition card. “Maybe if I'm alone, it will come over.”

Fei Na: “This is too dangerous.”

“I have a gun.” Jian Jing borrowed Fei Na’s revolver, which was just behind her waist. “You also have tranquilizer guns, it's okay.”

Fei Na wanted to say something more, but Chen stopped her: “She will be fine.”

“Why?”

"That South China leopard was very close to her yesterday," said Chen. “I'll go up that tree over there, it's okay.”

Fei Na had great confidence in his judgment, she did stop objecting and retreated far away to hide well. Chen climbed a tree and mounted a □□ with the cover of the canopy.

Ten minutes later, a slight rustle came from the bushes.

The South China Leopard leaped lightly out, graceful and agile under the night sky. Its unmatched beauty was like a forest elf.

Jian Jing held her breath, afraid to disturb it.

The leopard strode with ease, without any hunting actions, but seemed to be taking a casual stroll. It slowly walked to Jian Jing’s side, lowered its head to look at the thawed pig meat.

It had never eaten frozen food before. After fiddling with it back and forth a few times, it tentatively bit into it. Once confirming it was food, the leopard lay down there and started to eat with great relish.

While marveling “I’m really looking for trouble here”, Jian Jing stretched out her hand, slowly, gently, lightly, stroking its head.

Fei Na’s heart almost jumped out: this was not a zoo-bred leopard, but a wild one!!

But even so, the excitement in her heart had already prompted her to raise her camera and quietly record these less than 30 seconds of footage.

Hmm, only 30 seconds.

After stroking it, Jian Jing got scared and ran away too.

Fei Na: “You scared me to death!"

Jian Jing: “No crocodile available, but worth it to touch a leopard!"

"I want to...no!" Fei Na vigorously shook her head, dismissing the terrible idea. “This is an extremely dangerous behavior, very likely to cause loss of life. I can't do such unprofessional things."

Jian Jing: Immersed in immense happiness.

Fei Na: Crying emoji Crying emoji

Jian Jing: "Remember to copy me the video."

Fei Na: "You can't publish it publicly. It would be bad if it misleads others."

Jian Jing swore and pledged not to spread externally.

The two returned to the hotel full of excitement. Kang Mu Cheng’s tent was still lit.

Jian Jing thought for a moment, and took the initiative to greet him: “I’m back.”

“Hmm.”

He's angry.

Jian Jing pursed her lips and went straight to bed.

Ms. Kang soon discovered that a small unpleasantness had occurred between Jian Jing and Kang Mu Cheng.

Her son took care of people as usual, but talked less. The girl's performance was more direct — she had been playing on her mobile phone all the way back without saying much.

"Did you two have a fight?" Mrs. Kang asked her son. "Because of the new book?"

Kang Mu Cheng flatly denied: "No."

"Uh-huh." Mrs. Kang patted him on the shoulder. “Men need to be more generous. What’s the point of arguing with a girl?”

Kang Mu Cheng said: “I told you we didn't argue."

“Yes, no fight, just a cold war huh,” Mrs. Kang rolled her eyes. “Don’t mince words with me."

She was quite interested: “Tell me, what did you do to upset her like this?”

Kang Mu Cheng kept quiet and continued to check emails.

"Jing Jing, how did Mu Cheng bully you?" Mrs. Kang changed targets again and smiled. “Tell auntie and I’ll scold him for you.”

“He was unhappy yesterday because I didn't take him out to play,” Jian Jing glanced provocatively at him. “Madame, aren’t men’s minds especially hard to guess?”

Mrs. Kang laughed so hard: “That’s so true, just ignore them.” Kang Mu Cheng didn’t even look up. Jian Jing suddenly lost interest. She closed the magazine, “I’m going to buy a cup of coffee. Do you want one, Madame?”

“Americano iced.”

“Ok.”

The airport coffee shop was always crowded, especially since today’s flight was delayed. Jian Jing lined up a long queue before finally buying coffee and snacks. When she brought them back to the VIP lounge, she brushed shoulders with several tall men walking by.

Jian Jing's sixth sense was touched, and she glanced at them.

It was just the curious eyes of passersby, but it attracted the other party's attention in an instant. They suddenly turned back and looked at her coldly.

Jian Jing blinked, pretending to be ignorant.

Seeing that she was holding coffee and dressed fashionably and beautifully, completely harmless, they finally turned around coldly and continued to look around at the passersby.

"Who was that?" Jian Jing returned to her seat and asked Kang President in a low voice.

Kang President took a sip of coffee and said, "A guest who just arrived, mysterious, with such tight security, must be some important person."

"No wonder." Jian Jing didn't take it to heart. She looked up at the screen, "Has our plane taken off?"

Kang President's face suddenly darkened: "It became 5 hours."

As the saying goes, there are unexpected storms in the sky. The flight was fine, but who would have thought that a typhoon in the Pacific was attracted by something for some reason. It didn't move according to the planned route this morning, and turned towards coincidentally right on the scheduled route of the flight.

So the plane went from being on time to a 1 hour delay, a 150 minute delay, a 240 minute delay.

Endless.

However, humans are also very insignificant when they say insignificance. No matter how unhappy they are, they can’t influence a typhoon. They can only obediently accept the arrangement and wait slowly.

Jian Jing lost spirit: "What time is it going to be?"

"Don't be impatient, the more impatient, the longer it takes." Kang President stretched out lazily and said arrogantly, "I'm going to take a nap. The boarding flight attendant will come to notify me. You guys go find something fun to do."

Without waiting for their reply, she picked up her bag and went to rest in the room decisively.

Jian Jing was killing time by continuing to play with her phone.

Kang Mu Cheng looked at her: "Don't want to write even when you're free?"

"No inspiration." she said.

He: "Want to chat about the plot?"

She: "Don't want to chat."

Kang Mu Cheng sighed: "Jingjing."

Jian Jing lowered her head to touch Knight's head: "Are you happy? You can sit in the cabin today."

According to regulations, only one pet can enter the cabin. On the way here, Knight was not lucky enough to get into the cabin. He was very aggrieved to be transported for several hours and suffered a lot. So on the way back, Jian Jing spent a lot of effort and finally grabbed a spot to get in the cabin.

That’s why she didn’t intend to change flights, for fear that the dog would suffer again.

Knight: "Aw."

"Do you want lunch?" she asked.

Knight looked at her, then at Kang Mu Cheng, and lay back down on the floor: "Aw."

"I'll go buy you lunch," she said. "You have to be good and don't run around."

Knight wagged his tail to indicate that he had heard.

Although there was a lot of food in the VIP restaurant, they were all featured dishes, and there was nothing the dog liked to eat. Jian Jing decided to find a steakhouse and order a medium rare steak for Knight as lunch.

The airport was huge, and it took her some time, but she finally managed to find a restaurant with steak.

While waiting, she repeatedly watched her video of petting the big cat, considering who to share the happiness with.

Ji Feng? No, although he doesn't care like Kang Mu Cheng does, he probably wouldn't approve of her taking risks either—contact with wild animals is too dangerous after all.

Jiang BaiYan? His response was predictable to certainly be a wave of flattery. But Jian Jing was afraid of misleading him into thinking there was nothing to be afraid of. In case he goes up to pet animals while filming some variety show in the future, how would that turn out?

Afraid of being lectured and afraid of misleading people, after thinking it over for a long time, she was aggrieved to find there was no one she could share with.

Jian Jing put down her phone and spaced out.

The next moment, her body suddenly tensed up. Before she could even turn her head, her elbow was already swinging back. Empty.

Someone hugged her from behind and whispered with a laugh:"Long time no see, Miss Bunny."
