Chapter 316 Cut This Part
The forest was teeming with overgrown vegetation, with tall trees blocking out the sky. Occasionally, some sunlight would filter through the gaps in the trees, giving the place a somewhat vibrant look.
The path under Natalie's feet was also rugged and uneven, making it difficult to walk.
She had to reach the designated checkpoint before dark, where there would be some supplies. Otherwise, she would have to rest on the rocks.
So she really didn't want to be acting with Emily at this moment.
But Emily kept chattering, adding drama to the situation.
"Natalie, I just thought that since you guys went through hardships together, you must be very close. I didn't mean anything else."
Her fake cautious demeanor was annoying.
Natalie stopped not far from the tree-covered path ahead and turned to look at her.
Emily didn't expect her to stop suddenly and instinctively staggered back a step before steadying herself.
She waited for her response.
Natalie's gaze was fixed on her, but her eyes were indifferent and cold.
Emily's face turned pale, sensing her displeasure, and she felt uneasy.
"We're on an adventure, not a reality TV show about relationships. There's no need for me to share some boring and personal feelings with you, right? Getting through is more important, don't you think?" Natalie said.
There was something about her that set her apart from typical actresses. As she stood there with a cool smile, she radiated an intimidating presence.
Her penetrating gaze was sharp and perceptive, as if she could read minds with a single look. Emily felt her hidden thoughts immediately laid bare.
The live chat, which had been hungry for drama, suddenly erupted with comments:
[Natalie is so cool. It's refreshing to see someone express their dissatisfaction so directly!]
[Emily is a bit too nosy, asking such personal questions when they're not even close.]
[Natalie's personality is clearly not an act. You can tell she's been holding it in for a while and finally couldn't take it anymore.]
[Even though I also want to know what Emily asked, Natalie's response was still too polite!]
[Emily didn't mean any harm; she was just trying to build a good relationship. Natalie is being too sensitive.]
They didn't know what the live chat was saying, but Natalie's words had already made Emily lose face.
Realizing her overstep, Emily knew she was in the wrong.
Emily's face gradually lost its color, especially in front of the camera. Her nervousness was evident, making her feel awkward.
She could even imagine how Natalie's fans would expose her intentions and criticize her for overstepping.
But Natalie just smiled faintly and looked at the follow-up director, her voice calm and indifferent.
"Edit out the irrelevant parts later."
It wasn't a tone of negotiation or a firm command; she just calmly stated it, leaving no room for refusal.
After speaking, she turned and walked away.
The follow-up director's camera almost couldn't keep up.
'We can edit, but we can't cut the live broadcast,' they thought.
Emily fell silent, not daring to say anything, and quickly followed.
