Taking Part in a Survival Game with My Brother

Chapter 25 The Ants Have Benefited Everyone

Zhou Moli glanced at Lu Mingyu and Lu Yang before beginning to reflect on the strange happenings of the previous two days.

Lin Xinmeng knew him very well and had probably investigated his background beforehand.

Lin Xinmeng and Lu Yang used to be classmates and had a close relationship. Lu Mingyu also wanted the show’s mystery prize.

Now, Lin Xinmeng avoided him and met Lu Mingyu in private.

“Did... Lin Xinmeng approached me on purpose to pave the way for Lu Mingyu?” he wondered.

Zhou Moli couldn’t help but be on guard.

All signs pointed to Lin Xinmeng’s abnormal behavior.

“It’s good that you’re fine,” uttered Zhou Moli after some thought.

Even though Zhou Moli was just comforting her, Lin Xinmeng was still very happy.

She raised her head and smiled shyly. “Okay.”

Zhou Moli was absent-minded and failed to notice Lin Xinmeng’s imagination running wild.

Lu Yang’s beautiful brows lifted a little in anticipation. She wondered, “Could it be that Lin Xinmeng believed Zhou Moli likes her?”

“Yangyang, which direction did you come from?”

Lu Mingyu looked around, but he could not tell the way.

Lu Yang responded, “... South.”

If there were levels of being bad at directions, Lu Mingyu would be extremely terrible at it.

There was an instance when Lu Ming entered a shop in an alley and stood at the door for a few seconds. When he turned around, he couldn’t tell if he had come from the upper or lower road.

When they heard Lu Yang’s words, Zhou Moli and Lin Xinmeng looked at each other as if they had found a treasure.

Lin Xinmeng turned to the side with a look of thirst for knowledge.

“Lu Yang, how do you know which side is north and which is south?”

Lu Mingyu asked, “You can’t tell where is north?”

“Yes,” Lin Xinmeng replied.

Lu Mingyu went on, “If you can’t find the north, you can look at ‘northing’.”

...

“What a lame joke. I’m afraid that Lu Mingyu is leading his sister astray.”

“Sister Yangyang, don’t learn how to crack lame jokes!”

“Lu Mingyu is such a funny guy. He will look at nothing when he can’t find the north. How can he even crack such a joke? Hahahaha!”

“It’s hard not to support Lu Mingyu when he’s like this!”

Lu Yang looked up with her doe-like eyes and met Zhou Moli’s expectant gaze.

The beautiful girl and the modest guy were standing face to face. No one was shy as they exchanged courteous nods as soon as they locked eyes.

Although Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu’s visual when they appeared together was explosive, the netizens were never as enthused.

Shipping a couple and admiring a sibling pair brought different kinds of joy.

The sensation was similar to ripping the chains from the depths of the spirit and yelling, “Ship them will all our might! Keep shipping as long as we can!”

As a result, a new group of couple shippers poured into the variety show’s live stream.

“Did you see how Zhou Moli and Lu Yang looked at each other just now? It was as though they were parents who had located their two runaway children!”

“Lu Mingyu went from Lu Yang’s brother to her child? There is a significant gap in seniority!”

“Lu Yang is dating someone. Just relax and watch the variety show. Don’t anyhow couple ship them.”

“Who is it? Who? Lu Yang has a boyfriend? Which man is worthy of her?”

“It’s me! I’m Lu Yang’s husband and wife! This is the official announcement! I hope everyone knows!”

“Is the commenter in front a great fantasist? Lu Yang is clearly beside me, and she just touched me!”

Lu Yang pointed to the front. “This is the north.”

“You don’t have a compass, so how do you know we’re north?”

“She can’t be bluffing, can she?” Lin Xinmeng mused.

“You can just look at the ants’ nest,” Lu Yang replied.

“The ant’s nest?”

By not respecting others, one was insulting oneself.

Lu Yang didn’t mind their questions. She explained patiently, “Ants construct their nests with their slope facing the south side. You can tell which side is north and which side is south by looking at the slope of their nest.”

Lin Xinmeng and Zhou Moli were skeptical. They had never heard of this theory before.

Lu Mingyu asked curiously, “Why do ants like steep slopes that face south? Is it because there are penguins in the south pole, and they are heading north?”

Lu Yang was rendered speechless by his joke.

Lu Yang’s voice was calm. “The sun’s warmth is necessary for ants every day. The ants are, however, at their coldest season during the winter when the sun is insufficient in the south. Thanks to the slope, they can absorb more heat and withstand the cold.”

Lin Xinmeng questioned, “Don’t ants hibernate in winter? ”

“Ants aren’t like other animals. They don’t hibernate in winter. On the contrary, they are very active throughout the winter.”

Lu Mingyu said, “So, you can often see ants store food in summer for winter? Am I right, Yangyang?”

...

He looked like he wanted to be praised.

“Yes, you’re right,” Lu Yang nodded.

Zhou Moli was observing Lu Yang’s expression from the side. She appeared calm and didn’t seem to be spouting nonsense.

Lu Mingyu’s eyes widened. “The ants have benefited everyone greatly!”

Lu Yang smiled.

During the apocalypse, no matter if it were cloudy or blizzard, she would not lose her way as long as the ant nest existed.

“Lu Yang even knows this. I’m impressed! Please accept my bow!”

“The saying “A person with wisdom in the hold has elegance in mold” has been perfectly articulated by Lu Yang. The more knowledge she has, the more elegant she is!”

“Speaking of knowledge, I remember last time in Chinese class, I misread something as a dog...”

“I’m dying of laughter because of the above comment. That’s the importance of learning! Please study hard!”
