"What did you say?" Evangeline looked at Meghan with amusement.

Meghan, with a condescending expression, said again in a gentle voice, "I said I would like to share my tent with you. You can sleep with me tonight."

Evangeline said with a half-smile, "Say it again. Whose tent is it?"

The smile froze on Meghan's face, and her cheeks flushed red.

Samson said unhappily, "Meghan has extended her generosity toward you. Don't be so petty!"

Evangeline retorted, "You robbed me of my things and then displayed your generosity by sharing half of them with me? Are you out of your mind?"

"Does it matter whose tent this is!" Samson yelled angrily. "Whether it belongs to Meghan or not, she's willing to share it with you. This shows she has a good heart. Why are you so petty? Can't you be as generous as Meghan?"

Evangeline rolled her eyes. She didn't want to waste her time with an imbecile like Samson.

She looked at Meghan coldly and said in a frigid voice, "I'll count to three. Pack up my things and return them to me immediately. Don't make me do it myself. You can't bear my anger."

She began counting, "One!"

Meghan bit her lip and retorted, "Even if you brought these things here, they are with me and are mine now. You can't take them away from me!" She wouldn't last a night in that forest without them. I will never give them back to Evangeline! They are mine! Meghan exclaimed inwardly.

"Two," Evangeline said.

Meghan looked at the others angrily. "What are you waiting for! Get ready to stop her!"

Travis, Kendrick, and Jolene immediately sprang into action, quickly grabbing arm-thick sticks for self-defense.

Travis said, "Evangeline, we're not enemies. Apologize to Meghan and join our team. Otherwise, it will be dangerous for you to stay in the forest alone at night."

Kendrick said, "Although I dislike you, I'd hate to see you die in the forest. As long as you apologize, I will welcome you to our team."

Jolene stated, "You defeated us before because we were caught off guard. But now, we're prepared. You can't defeat all of us alone. Please stop the fuss and bow your head."

Even though Evangeline had previously defeated them, they didn't believe they were weaker than her; they were convinced they had been caught off guard. Evangeline's ambush had surprised them. As long as they were careful, Evangeline would be no match for them.

"Three!" Evangeline finished counting and moved forward. Travis and Kendrick stood before her with their sticks.

"Evangeline, stop your tantrum," Kendrick said in a low voice. "We don't want to bully women. Don't make us hurt you."

Travis continued to persuade her, "It's not shameful to admit your mistake. Apologize."

Evangeline sneered. "Mistake? What did I do wrong? It's you blind, shameless people who are at fault! How dare you take my things and make me apologize? Is this the morals and ethics you possess? What a bunch of idiots!"

Travis and Kendrick stammered, "Y-You"

Evangeline quickly kicked them away. They fell to the ground with screams. Jolene shuddered, dropping her stick, and fled in fear.

No one stopped Evangeline. She went straight to Meghan.

"Sam!" Meghan screamed. Samson immediately spread his arms protectively in front of Meghan.

"Eva Ah!" Evangeline kicked Samson away before he could finish his words.

Meghan trembled with fear. "I I'll give them back to you. Don't hit me!"

Evangeline sneered. "Too late!"

In the silence, only the loud slaps echoed. Evangeline slapped Meghan repeatedly, silencing her with hard blows to her cheeks. Meghan's head jerked from side to side; she felt as if her brain would be slapped out. By the time Evangeline stopped, Meghan's face was swollen. Evangeline's hand was covered in powder. With disgust, she wiped the powder on Meghan's clothes and then threw Meghan aside like garbage. Meghan remained dazed on the ground.

Evangeline ignored her and began packing her things, putting everything into a hiking bag. The tent and air bed were folded. She was furious to see half a bottle of her mosquito repellent was gone. Does Meghan have no common sense! We only need to apply a little at a time, but she used half a bottle all at once. Is her head full of nonsense! she thought furiously.

After packing, she couldn't resist kicking Meghan again before leaving. "Ugh. If killing people wasn't illegal, I'd open your brain to check if it's filled with nonsense! You're so stupid and selfish, you loser!" Evangeline cursed.

Samson, furious, shouted, "Enough, Evangeline! Meghan has been beaten to a pulp, but you still refuse to spare her. Why are you so vicious!"

"Shut up! You worthless rubbish!" Evangeline kicked him angrily. Samson rolled on the ground, hitting his head on a stone, and was stunned.

Evangeline snorted coldly and returned to her base with her belongings, setting up her tent and air bed before lying down comfortably.

[Evangeline is awesome! She won a one-on-five battle!] an audience cheered.

[Haven't Travis, Kendrick, and Jolene figured out the situation yet? Why are they getting involved in this mess?] someone commented.

[Samson and Meghan are idiots. Their morals are questionable. How could they be so righteous after robbing others' things? I've never seen such shameless people!] another added.

[Evangeline was too lenient with them. She should send them straight to hell!] one audience member fumed.

[She'd better not. If she killed them, she would go to jail. It's not worth it!] another chimed in.

[Evangeline is going to bed. I can't see her anymore. I miss her beauty already!] someone cried.

[Go to sleep. Get up early tomorrow and indulge in Evangeline's beauty again!] a fan said.

[Damn it! They're scheming something again. It seems they haven't learned their lessons yet.] someone remarked.

[Meghan is so disgusting. She stole Evangeline's identity as the daughter of the Gallagher family, and now she even targeted Evangeline. She's as mean as her mother. What exactly does the Gallagher family see in her?] someone asked.

[Evangeline is right. The whole Gallagher family are brainless idiots. They don't deserve to be her family. Evangeline can live a fantastic life, even by herself.] another audience member said.

[I'm looking forward to the end of the show when they know the truth.] someone gloated.

[Me, too. I can't wait to see how Meghan reacts when she knows that her true colors have been exposed. Hahaha!] another agreed.

On the other side, not long after Evangeline left, Meghan finally composed herself.

"Boo-hoo! Sam!" She threw herself into Samson's arms and cried. "Sam, it hurts Why was Evangeline so mean? I was so kind to her, but she beat me so brutally. I was disfigured by her! Boo-hoo! I've never been humiliated and wronged like this in my life. Sam, you have to avenge me" Meghan sobbed heartbreakingly.

Samson was distressed. He hugged Meghan tightly and said seriously, "Meghan, don't worry. I won't let you suffer in vain."

Meghan cried, "Then, avenge me!"

Samson's face stiffened. "I can't seek revenge now. Evangeline's like a madwoman. A few words will trigger her to lash out immediately!" Besides, Samson knew he was no match for Evangeline. If he confronted her, he'd likely get beaten up.

Meghan cried even louder.

Samson said, "I promise you that I will avenge you when we get back! You are the apple of our eyes, Meghan. We won't let you be wronged!"

Meghan continued crying. Samson hugged and comforted her gently, "Don't cry. Your tears are breaking my heart." Meghan's cries gradually subsided.

[Bah! What an act! Why would a thief feel aggrieved!] a netizen expressed their disdain online.

[Meghan is a habitual thief. She stole Evangeline's identity, tent, and luggage. We don't know how many things she has taken from Evangeline behind the scenes! A round of beatings is too lenient as her punishment. She should be beaten to death!] someone commented.

[What a joke! Meghan used to be portrayed as kind and weak, but now, she's urging Samson to take revenge on Evangeline for her. Is this a kind and weak girl? I've learned a lot!] someone said.

[She's not innocent but a vile woman!] someone remarked.

[These siblings are outrageous. I don't want to see them on TV after this variety show!] another added.

[If they can still appear on the screen in the future, it means we haven't expressed our opinions strongly enough!] someone typed.

[I'm leaving. I want to puke when I see their faces. See you tomorrow!] someone said.

[I'm leaving, too. I'll come to see Evangeline tomorrow!] another said.

As Evangeline vanished from the camera, the number of viewers in the live room dropped significantly. Less than half an hour after Evangeline went to sleep, the number of online viewers, which had reached 120 million, dropped by nearly half. The number continued to fall, eventually leaving only a few hundred thousand viewers—a small number compared to the peak.

Dallas looked at the viewer count and pondered. After half an hour, he slapped his thigh. "Arrange for someone to steal Evangeline's tent tomorrow!"

To ensure participant safety, special troops were stationed in the forest to prevent animal attacks and provide assistance. Stealing the tent only required an order to the troops.

The staff was dumbfounded. Someone asked, "Why should we steal Evangeline's tent?"

Dallas explained, "If Evangeline stays in the tent, we won't capture her on camera. There's a significant drop in the live room audience. Let her appear more."

The staff said, "Well Is it possible that the number drops because people are going to sleep? Even if Evangeline keeps appearing, the audience still has to sleep when it's time."

Dallas glanced at the staff. "Look what time it is. Are you going to bed now?"

The staff checked their phone. "Huh? How come it's only half past eight? Evangeline went to bed so early?"

Dallas said, "She doesn't have a mobile phone or any entertainment. It's normal for her to sleep when the sky turns dark. It's only half past eight, and this should be the time when netizens are most active. But the audience number in the live room dropped significantly. It must have something to do with Evangeline going offline, so we need to take countermeasures."

The staff said, "I see. I'll contact the people over there now and ask them to find a chance to take action tomorrow!"

The production crew decided to take a less-than-ethical approach to boost the show's ratings.

The next day, Evangeline woke at dawn. Emerging from the tent, she closed her eyes and breathed in the fresh air, feeling rejuvenated.

"The air is so fresh," she commented.

She washed up by the river and then practiced a round of Eight Brocades in front of the tent, an exercise taught to her by an old man when she was on the streets. It was said to cure any disease. Evangeline didn't know if that was true, as she'd never been sick.

[What a coincidence! The moment I entered the live room, Evangeline was online!] a fan commented excitedly.

[It's only half past five, and Evangeline already woke up. She's up so early!] someone exclaimed.

[Evangeline went to bed at half past eight last night, so it's normal for her to get up at this time,] someone explained.

[That's right. Without mobile phones and clocks, it's challenging to tell the time, so she can only sleep when the sky turns dark and wake up when dawn breaks,] someone chimed in.

[What exercise is Evangeline practicing? Look at her movements. How many years did she practice!] a netizen wondered.

[I know the answer. This is called Eight Brocades. My grandpa practiced it every day for more than ten years. Now, my grandpa is 99 years old, and he is still strong. This technique can strengthen the body. I didn't expect Evangeline to practice this set of techniques at such a young age.] someone said.

[Ahhh! Evangeline is so beautiful. Even her casual movements are graceful and pleasing to the eyes!] someone complimented.

Soon, a trending hashtag titled "Evangeline in Jungle Survival" appeared on Twitter. With its rising popularity, the number of viewers in the live room also began to rise rapidly. At six o'clock, the number of viewers had surged to over 30 million from just over 200 thousand!

The data analyst was stunned. "Damn it! Is Evangeline the key to the audience numbers! It's only six o'clock, and there are so many people coming to watch the livestream. This is shocking! If this weren't our show, I would have suspected that someone was faking the audience numbers. Evangeline's tent must be stolen! Anything that can hide her face must be taken away!"
