132: Wait patiently for a while

Gao Xiaofan and Qiu Gu found a hotel. After both of them showered and scrubbed their clothes clean, they hung them under the air conditioner and turned it on full blast. By the time they were done, it was already eleven o'clock.

Then, they lay shirtless on their respective beds, playing on their phones.

Gao Xiaofan had a cigarette in his mouth, staring dumbfounded at the video content being pushed to his phone.

"Saving the car brand is imperative!"

The video was a recording of the livestream. Someone had edited it, showing Gao Xiaofan's emo moment alongside the car brand being repeatedly focused on and zoomed in on the water, all set to background music added in post-production.

It almost made Gao Xiaofan think he was starring in an idol drama, where the female lead was trapped in the car brand car while he escaped alone.

Beside him, Qiu Gu was already laughing uncontrollably, his body twitching. His laughter was no longer a "hee-hee-hee" but had turned into a "ga-ga-ga~ ga-ga~ ga-ga."

"Man, you're on the trending searches again~"

"Wait, you seem to trend every time, but this one happened a bit fast."

Gao Xiaofan was about to respond to Qiu Gu when a knock came from the door.

The delivery had arrived.

The two of them got up and started eating heartily.

Two servings of stir-fried cabbage and one of braised large intestines.

Although they had only spent two nights on the island and the fish tasted good, both of them missed the taste of leafy greens. So, they ordered stir-fried cabbage via delivery, and fearing it wouldn't be enough to go with their rice, they also randomly ordered braised large intestines.

"Was that really my expression back then?"

After eating, Gao Xiaofan asked while staring at his phone with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Yeah~ Honestly, your expression management is pretty good, much better than those little fresh meats."

Qiu Gu said as he cleared the lunch boxes with a cigarette in his mouth.

Gao Xiaofan was speechless. Damn it, that's because you didn't hear that BGM. If you had, you'd probably be crying your eyes out.

"When the weather clears, we'll find a way to drive the car away. For now, there's no hope~"

"That's a long shot. Who knows how long it'll take."

After finishing cleaning up, Qiu Gu sat on the bed and crossed his legs.

Gao Xiaofan frowned but didn't say anything.

Indeed, looking at the current situation, he would have to wait for the weather to clear, the water level to recede, and the mud to dry. There was no telling how long that would take. He couldn't afford to be delayed here for too long; the yun jian value for Sheathed was only at three points, with a full 97 points to go until the end.

Without his left arm, things were always inconvenient. At the very least, he didn't dare touch any large catches.

For a moment, Gao Xiaofan had a bit of a headache. Call a boat? How big of a boat would that even take?

Meanwhile, the fans on the internet who had watched the livestream were still working hard to "Save the car brand."

In just a few short hours, "Saving the car brand" had rushed onto the trending searches and was still climbing.

It had to be said that the effect of the BGM was too strong. Like brainwashing, the lingering melody kept circling in the minds of the viewers who had watched the livestream.

They felt they had to do something. Although they didn't know the meaning of doing so, if they didn't, their hearts felt terrible. They wanted to cry. Who could understand this feeling?

The melon-eating masses couldn't understand this feeling, but that didn't stop them from joining in. After all, the idea of using a car brand as groundbait was truly hilarious enough to kill someone with laughter.

The melon-eating masses began the second leg of the relay to boost the rankings. The video was constantly reposted, and more and more people learned about the incident.

For a time, the comment section was severely polarized. On one side was the Emo Party, and on the other was the Melon-eating Party.

"Wuwuwu, the car brand is so pitiful. Let's work hard to save her~"

"Yeah, we must make Brother Wo Zi cheer up!"

"Everyone, work hard! We must get the car brand ashore!"

The above were from the Emo Party, basically viewers who had heard the BGM in the livestream room.

And below were the comments from the Melon-eating Party.

"Hahahaha, I'm dying. The little wuling has become groundbait~"

"No way, I just didn't squat in the livestream today and I missed such a legendary scene? I'm dying~"

"Ouch, I can't take it, my stomach hurts from laughing. Brother Wo Zi has never disappointed anyone~"

As the popularity rose, various media outlets also caught the scent and began reporting.

Brother Wo Zi has created another legendary scene.

He didn't leave after fishing up a corpse because he had already groundbaited the spot. Now, he's gone and used his ride, the little wuling, as groundbait.

In the afternoon, Gao Xiaofan and Qiu Gu rented a car and drove to the shore of Wanlv Lake once again.

On one hand, it was because they wanted to see if there were any good ways to get the little wuling out. On the other hand, many media outlets were tirelessly contacting him, wanting to interview him.

Interview my ass, my car is gone.

So Gao Xiaofan told them directly to watch the afternoon livestream.

When they arrived, they found that quite a few people had already gathered on the shore. Some were livestreaming, and some were melon-eating bystanders who had come to see the legendary scene.

Qiu Gu set up the tripod, attached the phone Gimbal, and started the livestream.

As soon as the broadcast started, the viewer count shot up like a rocket, only stabilizing once it reached 500,000.

Gao Xiaofan glanced at the crowd, rubbed his stomach, and couldn't help but sigh. Then, he forced himself to cheer up and gave a greeting.

"Brothers, I've rested a bit and feel much better. We're back at Wanlv Lake. We have to find a way to get the car brand out."

"I originally planned to wait for the water to recede, but looking at it now, that might take a long time. Staying here too long will delay our Fishing Tour itinerary."

On the screen, Gao Xiaofan's brow was furrowed, and the fatigue on his face made the viewers who still wanted to joke around feel a pang in their hearts. Looking at his limp left arm on camera, they deleted the bullet chats they had typed and silently typed the words "Jiayou" instead.

Yeah, Brother Wo Zi's left arm is like this, yet he's still on a Fishing Tour. He really is Creating Hype again, but this is definitely not something Brother Wo Zi himself wanted.

Brother Wo Zi must be feeling terrible right now.

Gao Xiaofan glanced at the bullet chats. The screen full of "Jiayou" warmed his heart, and his stomach didn't feel so bad anymore.

Those large intestines at lunch definitely weren't prepared well. Why does my stomach feel so uncomfortable?

In the bullet chats, people were offering suggestions one after another, but most were impractical. Someone even suggested using a plane to pull it out, but they were quickly refuted by other fans.

If you used a plane, you might as well add a bit more money and buy a new car.

Others suggested using a boat, but that wasn't realistic either; there weren't any boats that large here.

The number of people in the livestream room grew, and Gao Xiaofan smoked more and more. The makeshift ashtray made from a bottle was almost full.

Before they knew it, evening had arrived. Even Gao Xiaofan was preparing to end the stream; lingering here for a long time was useless.

Suddenly, Qiu Gu shouted to Gao Xiaofan, who was squatting and smoking to the side.

"Xiaofan, Zhao Fu said... for you to wait a moment."

"Huh?"

Gao Xiaofan leaned over with a look of confusion. He saw that the screen full of bullet chats in the livestream room had long since disappeared, replaced by one Carnival after another constantly appearing.

The only bullet chat was Zhao Fu's gift message, scrolling high at the top of the livestream room.

Intentional Punch: "Whoa, Brother Fan is awesome. I've already made arrangements. Wait patiently for a bit~"
