Chapter 744: Division of Tasks

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sharon didn’t want to waste time. After assigning the tasks, she poured the two buckets of crabs into a smaller bucket and prepared to set off.

“Do you have to be so anxious? Can you let me apply some sunblock?” Melissa

couldn’t stand Sharon’s energetic appearance. She wasn’t very willing to cooperate with the mission to begin with.

As a member of the girl group, she relied on her face to make a living. The sun was already high in the sky, and it would get hotter as time passed. If she followed them out to bask in the sun for a day, would her face still look good when she returned?

Melinda rolled her eyes after hearing Melissa’s words. She had seen pretentious people before, but she had never seen anyone who was pretentious regardless of the occasion. “Sis, get this straight. Missions have a time limit. Do we still have to wait here for you to finish your makeup before leaving?

Melissa seriously thought about Melinda’s words. Her fans would be watching the show no matter what she said. It would be best if she could put on makeup and show her best state. “Is that okay? Or you can go first. I’ll look for you when I’m done.”

[Is this Melissa alright? She still needs to put on makeup. Which one of the people present isn’t bare-faced?]

[It’s understandable for members of a girl group to care about looks. There’s no need to be so harsh.]

[That also depends on the time and place. If she really cares about how she looks, she can wake up early to prepare, instead of putting on makeup when she should be completing her mission, I think she really wants to slack off.] [Am I the only one who thinks she’s quite cute like this?]

[I think that your ability to judge is malfunctioning? What’s so cute about this kind of person who has no sense of responsibility and team honor?]

[Why did you invite such a person to participate in the show? It’s so tiring to watch.]

[If I don’t look for her, and look for you instead, the director would not want you even if I give him money.]

Sharon let out a sigh when she heard Melissa’s words. Otherwise, she was really afraid that she wouldn’t be able to control herself. “Melissa, just wear a hat. We’re really in a hurry. Not only do we have to collect the things needed for construction, but we also have to prepare food during the storm. We don’t have time for you to put on makeup.”

As Sharon spoke, Melissa’s face was already filled with reluctance. “And I believe that not only do your fans want to see your exquisite outfit, but they also want to see your sense of responsibility, right?”

Sharon’s words blocked Melissa’s refusal. She could only reluctantly follow Sharon and Melinda.

Sharon had a good sense of direction. She remembered the path the few of them had taken yesterday evening and quickly found the yellow mud.

There were not many plants on the yellow soil because it had not rained for a long time. Even though there was not much sunlight in the forest, it was still a little dry.

“It’s here. Let’s hurry up and bring more back.” Sharon put the bucket aside.

Melissa looked at the ground in front of her in surprise, then looked at Sharon. “There’s no problem with digging, but what are you going to let me dig with?”

Other than a bucket, the three of them didn’t have any tools. They couldn’t use their hands directly, right? How could Sharon let them use their hands directly? Even if Melinda and Melissa agreed, how long could they last with their hands? If their hands were injured, it would delay the completion of the mission even more.

Sharon looked around and found a few relatively thick branches in the forest and handed them to the two of them. “Let’s use this to dig the soil first. Then, we’ll bring it into the bucket with our hands. It’s an emergency. There’s a limit to the tools we can use, so this is the only way.”

Melissa wanted to say something else, but Melinda had already taken a branch and was poking it forcefully on the ground. Sharon was still looking at her with the wooden stick in her hand, as if she would leave her hand raised if Melissa didn’t take it.

Melissa gritted her teeth and stomped her feet as she took the tree branch from

Sharon’s hand. She poked the ground in front of her forcefully like how

that piece of ground as Sharon.

Sharon shrugged and joined the two of them.

In the beginning, the three of them were very fast. Although Melissa would occasionally slack off, she had always been trying her best to poke. After a while, the bucket of yellow mud had been collected. Melinda and Melissa carried it back to the camp while Sharon stayed in the forest to continue digging.

In just the morning, the three of them gathered four buckets of yellow mud. The boys also pulled back a lot of stones by making a simple raft. Therefore, the few of them had a simple lunch and prepared to start building in the afternoon..
