Adele, who was alone in her tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although just thinking about Adele gave him a headache, avoiding her was not practical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang’s only hope was that Catherine could accompany him, preventing Adele from making any bizarre statements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine and Adele shared a tent, and it was extremely hot, obviously without air conditioning in the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Gao Yang followed Catherine into a tent, he saw Adele lying prone on a cot, her eyes listlessly staring at the tent door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Gao Yang, Adele’s eyes brightened for a moment, then she lay on the bed, listlessly saying, “Hey, Gao, you finally came.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang walked up to Adele’s cot, his face full of concern, “You look terrible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How do you feel?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adele, on the verge of tears, shrugged her nose and said pitifully, “Menstrual pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My stomach hurts so much, really hurts, it’s excruciating.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From any perspective and any ethnicity’s standard of beauty, Adele was a beautiful woman, a great beauty, and at that moment she looked very pitiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beautiful women have the privilege of whining and charmingly complaining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the pretty, pitiful Adele, Gao Yang felt his heart flutter, then he couldn’t help but gently suggest, “Hmm, have some hot water then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After throwing out that nutrition-less statement, Gao Yang turned his head to Catherine and asked, “Menstrual pain, is it really that painful?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine made a helpless expression and said, “I don’t know exactly how painful, I’ve never experienced it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know there are many women who don’t get this problem, and obviously, I’m one of the lucky ones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adele took a deep breath, struggled to turn over, then looked at Gao Yang with a pained expression, “And obviously, I am one of those unlucky enough to suffer extremely, also, drinking hot water won’t help.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang spread his hands and said, “What should we do then?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We can’t just let you keep hurting like this, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doesn’t Martin’s team have an accompanying doctor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There must be something that can be done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine gave a wry smile and said, “How could the accompanying doctor be prepared for this type of medicine?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides giving Adele some painkillers, there’s not much he can do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After casting a pitiful glance at Gao Yang, Adele said softly, “Actually, there’s a radical cure, Gao, will you help me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang, of course, immediately said, “What method?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will certainly help you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, don’t ask, oh no, Adele, don’t say it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine was horrified, but it was already too late, Adele, with a smile full of face, said, “Just get pregnant and have a baby, and it won’t be an issue anymore, Gao, let me have a child for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, Gao Yang’s complexion changed dramatically, while Catherine just looked helpless and then gritted her teeth, “Damn, why do we always end up in these awkward situations!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang was speechless, looking at Adele’s hopeful face, all he could do was remain silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adele had a knack for seriously suggesting absurd ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Gao Yang fall silent, Adele seriously said, “Don’t think too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine said you won’t possibly marry me, so I’m not thinking about marriage anymore, I can be your lover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You marry Yelena, I’ll be your lover, that would be nice, wouldn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang was still speechless, only able to cast a pleading look towards Catherine, then Catherine sighed deeply and said loudly, “Adele, you’ve never discussed this issue with me before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now I’m telling you, that’s also not possible, stop daydreaming and talking nonsense.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adele sniffled, a look of regret on her face, “Is that not possible too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought it would be fine, then let’s just have a child, that should be alright, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You only need to share some…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shut up, that’s not okay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao can’t possibly have a child with you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine was almost frantic, then Gao Yang cleared his throat and said, “Adele, there are many men in the world…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I only like you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other men are just a concept of gender to me, but you are the only man I like.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After coughing again, Gao Yang looked at Catherine and said, “What should I say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine helplessly said, “Don’t say anything, I’ll help her establish a proper way of thinking about this issue, but it might take some time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Okay, we can leave now, you staying here won’t help her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking to Gao Yang, Catherine looked at Adele very resolutely, “You keep trying to sleep, if you sleep, it won’t hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao and I are leaving now, he needs to check those recordings, see you later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adele reached out, grabbed the hem of Gao Yang’s clothes, and then said pitifully, “Don’t leave me behind, please, don’t leave me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang felt like his head was about to explode, his mind was really about to explode, an extremely intense headache ensued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang was almost in tears, and when he looked pleadingly at Catherine again, he realized Catherine was almost crying too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang could no longer pass the buck to Catherine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, she couldn’t solve it at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath, his face breaking into a smile before he bent down to Adel, “Be good, uncle—no, it’s me who’s going to be busy for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll come back to see you soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behave yourself, and I’ll take you out to play when I return.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of hesitation, Adel finally let go of his hand, nodded, and then whispered, “Come back soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang and Catherine fled the tent as if they had been pardoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they were some distance away, both of them took a long breath of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After exchanging glances with Gao Yang, Catherine suddenly said, “Feels good, doesn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang shrugged, “What feels good?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s actually a headache.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine snorted coldly and said disdainfully, “Liar, men are all the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having such a beautiful girl like you, whether you accept her or not, you definitely feel thrilled.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang spread his hands, saying, “A beauty with an IQ of 185 but the EQ of a five-year-old child, she likes me a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think that makes me secretly thrilled or incredibly bothered?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a serious moment of contemplation, Catherine sighed, “Forget it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s not talk about it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking silently for a few steps, Catherine suddenly sighed lengthily, then glared fiercely at Gao Yang, puffing up her cheeks, “Jerk!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang was somewhat baffled, but Catherine did not intend to explain further and instead sped up her pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang hastened to catch up with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tents were not far apart, but only after a few steps, Jansen suddenly emerged from one of the tents and stood in front of Catherine and Gao Yang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After greeting them, he quickly added with concern, “Catherine, is Adel feeling any better?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine shook her head, saying, “Still the same.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jansen immediately grew anxious, “Then, may I go see her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine shrugged, “Go ahead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nodding at Gao Yang, Jansen hurried away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Jansen’s retreating figure, Catherine sighed slightly, “Poor guy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confused, Gao Yang asked, “What happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine gave Gao Yang a look and explained, “Haven’t I told you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adel acts completely different around people she likes versus those she doesn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jansen is one she doesn’t like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in front of Jansen, Adel behaves like a normal person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poor Jansen—he still doesn’t realize he’s just air in Adel’s eyes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that with pity, Catherine then said, “Come on, Martin is waiting for us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang gave a wry smile, “It’s getting more complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I still don’t quite understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can you tell me, what are you and Adel here for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, what roles do you two have in Martin’s film crew?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight smile, Catherine said, “Hosts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martin asked both of us to be hosts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, Adel and I are both professionals in the field, and there are few women in this circle, so we both came.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang laughed, “You forgot to mention a particularly important factor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re beautiful and so is Adel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you two weren’t this attractive, no matter how professional, do you think Martin would let you host?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martin’s intention was clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In today’s world where wildlife documentaries are overdone, just showing beasts holds little appeal to viewers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But beauties and beasts, that’s a different story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being praised as very beautiful wouldn’t upset anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Catherine, who had been keeping a straight face, finally showed some laughter, and the two of them chatted and laughed as they made their way to Martin’s tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martin was waiting for Gao Yang and Catherine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was ready, and soon after they entered, besides a brief welcome, Martin quickly got down to business.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martin played a clip that Jansen had captured unintentionally for Gao Yang, jumping straight to the footage of people walking on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang instinctively held his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The footage was shot from the air, using a wide-angle lens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the height and that the shot was not particularly aimed at the figures, plus the brevity of the moment, the details were not very clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other than making out that there were four people walking on the ground, other details were hard to discern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even zooming in didn’t reveal anything particularly noticeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after watching it several times, Gao Yang finally tapped on the laptop, stopped the video that was playing, and took a long breath of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang covered his face with both hands, leaned back in a folding chair, and after a long while, he spoke solemnly, “I’m very certain, the four people in the video, they are the ones I’m looking for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, they’re from the Akuri tribe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m absolutely sure of it!” (To be continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you enjoyed
