Chapter 737: Go and Wash the Bowls
[Sharon is really kind to be willing to give Melissa food when she is like this.] [That’s right, who doesn’t love a capable and kind sister!]
[They’re clearly very overboard, okay? What did Melissa do wrong for them to be so sarcastic? She’s a pampered little princess to begin with. It’s normal that she doesn’t know.]
[That’s right. Sharon’s fans are really funny. They actually said that she’s kind. Shouldn’t she be more tolerant of Melissa if she’s really kind?]
[Is Melissa’s fan alright? She didn’t do anything. The others caught snakes and found food to cook. Isn’t she kind enough to give her a bite to eat?]
[How high are the filters of the fans? Is Shane being sarcastic just because he told the truth?]
[Man vs. Wild, resources are limited. It’s reasonable to fight for oneself. Isn’t Sharon kind enough to share her food with your idol?]
Due to her hunger, Melissa did not walk away angrily. She awkwardly took small bites of the food in front of her and did not say anything critical.
However, in the eyes of the live-stream fans, it was as if their little princess had suffered a huge grievance. All of them were indignant and felt that the others had joined the group to support each other and ostracized Melissa. In the end, they were attacked by the other viewers.
It was already very late after the few of them finished eating. Sharon sat there with no intention of getting up and stared at Melissa.
Melissa put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth. Just as she was about to get up, she met Sharon’s eyes. “You, why are you staring at me? It’s scary.”
“Have you forgotten what I just said?” Sharon ignored her complaints, her eyes still on her. “Everyone contributed today, but you didn’t help at all. Since you enjoyed the food, you have to work.”
Sharon’s meaning was very obvious, and Melissa could understand what she meant. However, looking at the used cutlery in front of her, and she still had to wash it, she was very resistant, so she chose to pretend that she didn’t understand.
“I’ll do the mission with you guys tomorrow.” As she spoke, she was about to leave.
Seeing her like this, Sharon knew that she was prepared to play dumb and grabbed her wrist. “I mean that you’ll be in charge of cleaning the dishes today.”
Melissa thought that after her veiled rejection, Sharon would be too embarrassed to continue this topic, but she didn’t expect Sharon to make it clear.
Melissa wanted to reject her, but the cold wind still brought her a hint of clarity. She knew very well that if she rejected her, she would definitely incur the wrath of the masses. The others might abandon her the next day, and she might really go hungry then.
“But the stream is very dark. I’m afraid to be alone.” Melissa’s fingers stirred the corner of her clothes. She was really afraid.
“I’ll go with you,” Melinda hurriedly said. It wasn’t that she had good intentions, but based on her understanding of Melissa, if she didn’t follow, Melissa would definitely just put the bowls and chopsticks in the stream and take them out. They wouldn’t be able to clean them at all, so she had to go over and supervise.
Dan was worried about the two girls going alone, so he suggested that they go together. “Then I’ll go with you. It’s dark, and it’s not safe for the two of you.” With that, he helped put the used bowls and chopsticks into the basket.
Melissa really could not find a reason, so she could only reluctantly walk in the direction of the stream with the two of them.
“We’ve basically finished all the food tonight. There’s nothing for breakfast tomorrow.” After the three of them left, Sharon checked all their things and realized that there wasn’t enough left for the five of them to have breakfast tomorrow.
Shane pursed his lips and thought about it. Then, he seemed to have thought of something and said, “When Dan and I went to the beach today, we saw that there were many things floating along with the waves. We can find what we can use. Moreover, there are some crabs and conchs on the shore. The beach is huge, so we should be able to find a lot.”
Sharon pondered for a moment. “I can cook seafood soup and go to the forest to look for mushrooms after completing the mission, but I’m not good at catching crabs.”
“It’s okay. There’s a sea in my hometown. I can catch such things.” Shane smiled. “The high tide is at six in the morning. As the saying goes, there are many crabs during the high tide and fish during the low tide. We probably can’t catch many fish at that hour but there are definitely enough crabs. After the tide has retreated at noon, if time permits, we can look for others..”
