My Secret Billionaire Husband-Chapter 1817 - 1811: Various Situations
"Mhm, Annie’s right." Faye Lister had already put on her rain boots, and she looked at Coco Wadsley, "No one likes to do dirty and tiring work, but if everyone refuses to do it, how can it be accomplished? Since we joined this show, we should know that it’s not about enjoying ourselves here."
"If you can’t accept the rules of the activity, you shouldn’t have come. The tasks behind will only get harder, and my team needs teammates who can endure hardship and not just delicate girls like Ms. Joanna."
Coco’s face flushed at her words.
Faye had always been gentle and polite with her before.
This was the first time she had been so bluntly scolded.
After Faye finished, she looked at the others, "Alright, everyone hurry up and change your shoes, let’s get down to work. Don’t waste any more time."
Seeing that Coco had been scolded by Faye, the others silently put on their rain boots.
The situation was quite the opposite on the other side.
Porter Rushbrook and Quin Simpson were a bit obsessive about cleanliness, and when they heard they had to dig lotus roots out of the mud, both of their faces showed disgust.
They didn’t really want to go.
As the team leader, Joanna Lawrence wasn’t polite at all, and directly told the two with a stern face, "Since you elected me as the leader, you have to listen to me. We have only two hours, and we can only win today’s competition, not lose."
"I don’t want to be punished."
"The other team is mostly girls, and if we still lose to them, you big guys would feel ashamed, wouldn’t you?"
"Now I order you two to change your shoes immediately and go down with me."
Porter and Quin looked at each other, and Porter couldn’t help but laugh, "Joanna, I find you actually look like a little team leader now. Don’t worry, we never said we wouldn’t work."
Joanna didn’t bother joking with them, "Then hurry up, change your shoes, and get to work."
After she said that, she was the first to go down and started digging lotus roots in the muddy fields.
Maybe she was just lucky.
Soon, when the other team still hadn’t found anything, she dug a large, long lotus root out of the mud.
"Joanna, you’re amazing. You found one so quickly." Porter and Quin, who had gone down with her, still hadn’t found anything and were both surprised and envious when they saw the tender and white lotus root in her hand.
As she spoke, Joanna dug another lotus root out of the ground and saw that Porter and Quin were empty-handed, so she waved at them, "It seems like there are quite a few lotus roots here, you guys come over and dig."
Hearing her say that, Porter and the others hurried over.
After a while, the two also successfully dug out a long lotus root.
This greatly increased their confidence and enthusiasm for work, and their cleanliness concerns were quickly forgotten as they put more effort into their tasks.
Seeing Joanna, a girl, not afraid of getting dirty or tired, the men certainly couldn’t be outdone by her. No one had any complaints, and they all worked diligently and actively.
In comparison to the harmony and success on Joanna’s side, Faye’s team was full of problems.
A sudden, high-pitched scream startled everyone.
"Ah, a snake, there’s a snake! Help!" Coco, who had just started working, seemed to have received some sort of fright, screamed, and then, with a terrified face, climbed ashore and began sobbing by the shore.
