Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 750: 238: Regret extremely, incomparably stupid_4
 

Drink water?

She wasn’t thirsty now. Why should she drink water?

But right now, Annie had no time to think about it. She took the bottle and started drinking.

The water was a bit cold and slightly bitter.

But it was not unbearably hard to swallow.

Oddly enough, even though the water was ice-cold, the moment she drank it, she felt a warm surge inside her body.

Warmth?

Why would that be?

Was it an illusion?

After finishing the bottle of water, Annie was about to throw the bottle out of instinct. Right then, Viola Thompson’s voice once again rang out, “Don’t throw it, give it to me.”

Annie handed the bottle to Viola Thompson.

Viola Thompson put the empty bottle in her backpack. “Let’s continue.”

Annie nodded and continued to climb, gripping the rope.

Perhaps even she herself did not realize it, her strength had greatly recovered after drinking the water Viola Thompson gave her. Moreover, her body wasn’t as cold anymore.

Viola Thompson then shared the remaining water with the other four.

The reaction from all of them after drinking the water was the same as Annie’s.

Mila curiously asked, “Viola, what did you just give me to drink? Why do I feel so energized now?”

Viola answered casually, “It’s a rare medicinal herb.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

A medicinal herb?

What kind of herb is that?

Mila then thought of a scene from last night, as Viola Thompson was boiling something around the campfire. She then asked, “Was it that disgusting water you were boiling last night?”

“Yes.”

It was a very rare herb Viola Thompson found on Cold Snow Mountain.

It was so rare that even she was seeing it for the first time.

Fortuitously, this herb had miracle effects of replenishing energy and invigorating the blood, hence Viola Thompson used it to brew water for everyone.

She didn’t expect it to be this effective.

Although the school mentioned that students were not allowed to bring any medication, these herbs were not brought from outside, instead found on the Cold Snow Mountain, which obviously did not break any rules.

“Viola, you’re really incredible!”

Behind the group, filled with regrets, was Annie. She regretted constantly opposing Viola Thompson and doubting her.

Once the competition was over, she definitely had to apologize to Viola.

The snowstorm was getting increasingly intense.

The six of them had to rest every half hour.

After many repetitions, they finally reached the top of the mountain three hours later.

Viola Thompson was the first one to climb up.

It was four o’clock in the afternoon.

There were eight hours left until the end of the competition.

The worker stationed at the top of the mountain thought he was hallucinating when he saw the backpack being thrown up.

So quickly?

Every year, the earliest team to reach the peak was usually after seven o’clock in the evening.

But now it was only four.

The worker took a few steps forward.

At that moment, a pair of beautiful, smooth hands reached forward and grabbed the top of the rocks, pulling herself up with a swift, strong motion.

The hands were beautiful.

The owner of the hands was even more beautiful.

Before the worker could react, Viola Thompson had already bent down to pull up the next contestant.

The second one to ascend was York.

Despite drinking Viola’s water halfway up, he was still gasping for breath from exhaustion.

He was so tired!

Viola Thompson then pulled up the third person.

The third person was Annie.

Annie, just like York, could hardly believe they had reached the summit and ended up collapsing on the ground, gasping heavily.

Subsequently, Viola Thompson pulled Toby, Puda, and Mila up in turn.

Mila was just slightly better than the others. At least she could still hug Viola Thompson and cheer, “Viola is so amazing! I feel like I’m dreaming.”

It was too surreal!

When they had chosen the wrong route following Annie, she had even prepared for failure in the exam. She didn’t expect to pass successfully.

Annie lay on the ground looking at Viola Thompson, filled with countless emotions.

They went through so much on the way.

Now, she sincerely admired Viola Thompson.

If it was someone else instead, they might not possess the same wisdom and grace as Viola Thompson.

This girl from Sinian Country had earned her genuine respect.

At that moment, a worker came up and announced with a smile, “Congratulations, you six have successfully completed the physical endurance and survival skills test.”

“We did it! We are successful!” Mila happily circled around Viola Thompson.

To be honest, when Mila stepped onto the first challenge, the single-plank bridge, she had even prepared for the possibility of failing.

But to her surprise, Viola had not just led them here, but also helped them reach the peak!

All of this felt like a dream.

It was so surreal.
