After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 435

Chapter 435: Chapter 435: President Li Makes an Unexpected Entrance

Bai Qiang had an innate talent: her superhuman hearing.

Because of her acute hearing, she unlocked a special ability in her teenage years—Sound Positioning.

As long as she could catch even the faintest sound, she could precisely determine the location of the source, whether it was a person or an object.

Later, she deliberately trained herself for a period of time, and developed another remarkable skill.

Blindfolded Shooting.

With her eyes covered, plunged into darkness, her hearing instead became more amplified—she could pick up sounds even more clearly than when her eyes were open.

By the advanced stage of her training, Bai Qiang evolved to the point where, even if someone randomly threw a ball into the air, she could hit it mid-flight while blindfolded.

It became a reflexive instinct.

Eventually, she sent the K.A. Chairman a video of herself performing Blindfolded Shooting.

Chairman Erwin was stunned on the spot when he watched the video, and immediately invited her to become a club member.

Bai Qiang was only seventeen at that time. Due to her family background, she concealed her identity and appearance, so Erwin only knew her by the name "Qiangwei."

When Lu Sheng was reborn into Bai Qiang’s body, she was already twenty-three years old.

Nine years later, that is, just over a year ago when she contacted Erwin again, Bai Qiang’s age would have been thirty-two.

Considering that in the future she might be reborn into yet another young body, Lu Sheng didn’t reveal herself as Annalise at that time but instead adopted another identity.

In everyday life, there really wasn’t any occasion to use a skill as niche as Blindfolded Shooting.

So when Lu Sheng found herself stranded on a deserted island one day—forced to hunt wild rabbits in the forest late at night for food—she was genuinely unprepared.

After packing the third rabbit she had shot into her backpack, Lu Sheng wiped the blood off her hands and stowed her bow and arrows.

She did a quick mental calculation—five people, three rabbits, tomorrow’s lunch would be sufficient.

It would only cover one meal, but every evening after that, she could come into the forest to hunt.

Besides rabbits, the forest might also yield snakes, and with some luck, she might encounter wild boars; all were viable food sources.

In addition to hunted game, they could also fill their stomachs with wild fruits.

With this thought, Lu Sheng returned to the tall, sprawling fruit tree she’d initially spotted.

The foliage of this giant tree was lush and abundant. The wild fruits, about the size of a fist, nestled among the leaves and appeared white from a distance.

What now? Should she climb the tree to pick them?

Lu Sheng looked around; it seemed there wasn’t a better solution.

Taking a deep breath, she placed her backpack and bow on the ground, then moved to stand beneath the tree.

Climbing trees wasn’t something Lu Sheng was good at, nor had she ever done it before.

Tomorrow morning, some people would likely come to the forest to search for map fragments.

According to Mr. S, map fragments had been hidden all around the deserted island. It was a matter of who found them first, and whether the fragments contained any marked routes.

Thus, if Xu Xinya and Shi Yuwei spotted this fruit tree tomorrow, it would likely lead to another squabble over resources, with them scheming to claim all the fruit for themselves.

What a headache.

Just as Lu Sheng was grappling with her dilemma, her ears suddenly picked up a noise.

Or rather, not only her superhuman hearing, but even the viewers watching the livestream could hear it.

It was distinct from the sound of a rabbit darting through the underbrush—this was clearly something heavy crunching through the forest floor.

What could suddenly appear in the forest in the middle of the night?

Lu Sheng’s expression hardened, and her entire body snapped into high alert.

In almost an instant, she grabbed her bow from the ground, nocked an arrow, and aimed it toward the source of the sound. It was clear that as soon as she identified what was approaching, she’d fire immediately.

But when Lu Sheng—and the viewers on the livestream—finally saw the massive figure emerging from the darkness, everyone collectively sucked in a sharp breath!

A towering figure virtually obscuring the trees behind, covered in thick, brown fur. A round head, short neck, and muscular limbs with powerful claws capable of snapping a human skull in an instant...

It was a grizzly bear.

And this grizzly bear was now staring directly at the girl gripping her bow, her eyes fierce and unwavering.
