Chapter 661: Chapter 4: The Cannon Fodder Starlet Who Gives Up on Struggling (Part 4)

[Jiang Lai, just keep holding on, don’t do anything baffling anymore]

[She’s so impressive, just let her drive, and if she falls into the ditch, don’t help her!]

[Damn, the people who show off are the most annoying]

[If she can drive this, I’ll eat shit on live stream!]

[I’ll drink three jin of soy sauce on live stream!]

[Hahahahaha be careful, Jiang Lai really might know how to drive, though it’s impossible.]

Jiang Qu stood outside the warehouse, arms crossed, looking at Jiang Lai coldly.

"What exactly are you doing? Why don’t you just use a sickle to cut it?"

"This is faster."

"But do you even know how to drive it? Stop embarrassing yourself, okay?"

As the younger brother, Jiang Qu, overflowing with pride, wished he could find a hole to bury himself in right now.

Jiang Lai smiled.

"What if I can drive it?"

"If you can drive it, I’ll call you Dad!"

"Forget it, I don’t want to compete with my dad. How about this, if I can drive it, you have to bark like a dog for the whole day."

"Ha!"

Make him bark like a dog?!

"Alright! If you can’t, you have to bark like a dog for the whole day!"

"Deal."

Jiang Lai sat up there, the corners of her lips curled, looking at the panel in front of her.

Foot on the clutch, shifted the throttle lever, one hand on the lever and the other hand over the control stick, shifted to a lower gear, and slowly released the clutch.

Jiang Qu ran out of patience and couldn’t be bothered to bet with Jiang Lai on these trivial things.

"Forget it, I don’t care about you, don’t eat then, starve for all I care!"

With that, Jiang Qu threw down the sickle in his hand impatiently, turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as he took a step, he was startled by the sudden roar from behind, and turned around swiftly.

Then, he saw Jiang Lai driving the harvester, heading straight in his direction!

She was driving towards him!!

She actually knew how to drive a harvester?!!

Jiang Qu stared in disbelief at Jiang Lai’s skilled operation, suddenly feeling the woman in front of him seemed a bit unfamiliar.

What the hell!

But soon, he couldn’t stand still because Jiang Lai really was coming at him without any sign of turning.

"Holy shit."

He hastily dodged out of the way.

As he retreated, he tripped and fell flat on his backside, completely unaware.

Looking up at Jiang Lai from below, he rubbed his eyes, confirming he wasn’t seeing things.

[Jiang Qu is mocking me]

[Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit, Jiang Lai is driving the harvester one-handed?!!]

[I don’t understand, I’m completely shocked, to what extent will a female celebrity go to participate in a show]

[This kind of tractor operation is pretty complex, it tends to stall and get stuck in the dirt, Jiang Lai being able to start it doesn’t mean she knows how to drive it]

[She just started it up, was it necessary to react so excessively, probably just learned a bit of surface skills for the show]

[You think saying that means you don’t have to eat shit]

[Where’s the brave warrior who said they’d eat shit and drink soy sauce? Don’t go silent]

The bullet screen exploded with comments, everyone was stunned by the image of this celebrity driving a harvester.

#JiangLaiDrivesHarvester# easily made it to the top five trending searches.

Jiang Qu quickly got up from the ground, looking at Jiang Lai.

"When did you learn?"

"When you were still in your mother’s womb, a man keeps his word, so today, either you keep quiet, or you bark like a dog."

"..."

Jiang Qu chose to keep quiet, carrying a bag and following behind the harvester.

Now, there were already quite a few people in the wheat field.

The breakfast contents on everyone’s task cards were similar, all included bread.

And the only source of bread was this wheat field.

Regardless of whether they could actually make it, they had to harvest some wheat first.

When the "rumbling" sound came from afar, everyone quickly raised their heads to look.

Before they could see clearly who was seated up there, the quick-witted Lu Ming immediately suggested.

"We can trade with that uncle, he helps us harvest the wheat, and we trade honey or eggs with him."

"That’s a good idea."

The other group’s sister, Han Li, immediately agreed.

As the harvester approached and the person seated became clear, Lu Ming, just about to go over and talk to the "uncle", suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Seeing the person on the harvester, he instinctively rubbed his eyes.

Nothing changed, it was still Jiang Lai.

How could it be her?! 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Han Li and Qu Yongjia, who were beside him, also circled around in astonishment to take a look.

"Wow, I didn’t expect you knew how to drive this!"

After saying that, Han Li exclaimed excitedly.

"Great, with this harvester we don’t have to harvest the wheat ourselves!"

Qu Yongjia, despite being covered in sweat due to the heat, looked at Jiang Lai’s expression before smiling along.

"We’ll have to see if Jiang Lai has the time, though."

After all, everyone chose their own farming tools, and it wouldn’t be fair to assume Jiang Lai should do their tasks just because she can drive a harvester.

Han Li, however, found it completely reasonable.

"Such a large harvester can get all the wheat in no time; what’s wrong with sharing a bit with us afterward?

Jiang Lai surely wouldn’t mind all that, right."

In the original plot, Han Li, as an unknown actress on the eighteenth line, adhered staunchly to a principle of being opportunistic, aligning with those who had abilities and cozying up to whoever had benefits.

If the plot had developed according to the original, Jiang Lai would have been working up a sweat in the fields along with them by now. Han Li would actively seek collaboration, proposing to help thresh the wheat because she was slow at reaping, only asking Jiang Lai to share some flour with them.

But later, Lu Ming really found a villager who could drive a harvester, asked for help.

The wheat was quickly harvested, without a trace left.

Seeing this, Han Li immediately abandoned Jiang Lai and turned to work with Lu Huan.

In the end, Jiang Lai was left to reap twice the amount of wheat, and when she was thoroughly exhausted, she still had to shell and mill it.

Everyone else finished their tasks, but she hadn’t even had breakfast by the afternoon.

The result was Jiang Lai fainting in the kitchen due to low blood sugar, and being criticized for hyping it up.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lai looked at the few people below and smiled.

"Our show requires everyone to gain experience, if I help you directly, then it doesn’t align with our show’s purpose.

How about this, if you want me to help reap the wheat, you can trade something for it."

"Alright."

Lu Ming agreed first.

Anyway, he had nothing, whatever Jiang Lai wanted would be fine.

Jiang Lai smiled, looking at the other two.

So Han Li and Qu Yongjia also nodded.

"Alright then, you can trade the reward for the next game we play with me, how about it?"

"The reward for the next game?"

Nobody knew what the next reward would be.

The urgent matter was to harvest the wheat for breakfast.

"Okay, I agree."

Lu Ming was the first to agree, and the other two followed his lead.

Eating was the priority, after all.

Jiang Lai nodded; in front of the live stream, they couldn’t back out.

After the discussion, Jiang Lai started the tractor, smoothly shifted to medium gear, and drove steadily and fluidly into the wheat field.
