Chapter 39
Money Tree
“Quick, are the sisters who helped keep score in the morning here? Announce it to us!”
“Coming, coming! Zhou Yan is ranked first with 10 points, Bai Ling has 9 points, Jiang Huai has 8 points, Tan Si has 5 points, and Yuan Jing has 1 point.”
“The polarization is really serious. It’s really like a drought compared to a flood!”
“Haha, Yuan Jing and her brother are really lonely.”
“They’re playing just to accompany the others.”
“Other than the top three, I feel like the other two don’t have to struggle anymore. They’re just fighting to see who’ll be in the bottom position.”
Director Han announced the rules of the next round and reminded, “This is a mission that can earn you points. Please cherish your last chance.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw a group of staff carrying a long table filled with various ingredients and vegetables. contemporary romance
Director Han continued, “Everyone, please choose your ingredients for tonight.”
The guests could not believe it. They went forward and looked at the table full of fresh ingredients.
Bai Ling’s first reaction was suspicion. She looked at Director Han and asked, “When did the production team become so good to us?”
Hou Li was a host herself, so she knew that she shouldn’t just look at the surface. She and her husband planned to wait and see.
“Director Han, what tricks are you trying to play this time?”
“It’s the last day already. Please be human.”
The guests did not dare to believe it easily and voiced their doubts.
Director Han did not expect everyone to be so vigilant today after only playing together for a day.
Director Han squeezed out a kind smile. “We should have more trust in this world. I swear to God! These are really the ingredients for tonight. Hurry up and choose. Each of you can pick ingredients for one dish. If you don’t choose it in five minutes, don’t blame me for disqualifying you from obtaining the ingredients.”
The guests only wanted to know what the rules were in advance to avoid falling into any traps. However, Director Han was set on not revealing anything, so everyone could only choose their ingredients first.
As Tan Ming was the one cooking, Jiang Huai took the initiative to ask, “What should we take?”
Tan Ming looked at the fat chicken on the table and rubbed her stomach. She felt that her stomach was craving chicken. “Let’s have mushroom chicken tonight. This chicken is quite meaty. It weighs about three to four catties. It’s just right for us to eat. We’ll use some mushrooms and garlic to go with it.”
Zhou Yan and his wife were thinking about the program team’s strategy at the side. “I think Director Han still wants to reverse the situation to entertain the audience.”
Hou Li nodded in agreement. “That’s why we might not be able to get what we want.”
After some thought, the couple decided to choose ingredients like beef, green melon, and millet pepper according to their preferences.
“Hahaha, your analysis was so thorough, but in the end, you still followed your preferences like Sister An!”
“I’m suddenly looking forward to the reversal!”
“Bai Ling is too funny. She took cured meat and noodles, as well as all kinds of pickled vegetables. She’s afraid that she doesn’t know how to cook a proper dish, so she directly wants to make a lazy version of noodles.”
As there had been a lot of activity in the past two days, Tan Si and Wang Li did not dare to eat only vegetarian food. They were afraid that they would faint from hunger midway, so they chose fish and green onions to make steamed fish. Yuan Jing and her brother chose tomatoes and eggs. After all, with their culinary skills, it was already very good that they could make tomatoes and scrambled eggs.
Seeing that everyone had chosen their ingredients, Director Han continued, “Next, please put the food into the small basket that the staff has given you. The production team has already marked out the location in the forest for the activity. You have to find a sign with the name of our show inside. You have to protect your food along the way. Once it’s snatched, your food will belong to the other party.”
“At the same time, any group that successfully snatches other group’s food will be awarded one point. The group that obtains the sign and successfully protects it until the end of the game will be awarded five points. However, only the group that possesses the sign in the end can get the points. The other groups will be given zero points for failure.”
In the afternoon’s closing battle, Director Han decided to make the scene more intense. Only when there was physical collision and snatching could intense competition and visual conflict be displayed.
“Wow! I’m so looking forward to it. I knew Director Han wouldn’t disappoint me!”
“I love this kind of competition!”
“I’m so worried about my Si Si. She’s so weak. She’ll probably collapse if someone pushes her. The production team is too much! They don’t consider the guest’s health at all for the sake of the ratings.”
“That’s right. How could Si Si’s company and her agent Zhou Yun choose this show? It’s fine if they treat our Si Si as the company’s money tree, but at least choose a relaxed show. This dog company is inhumane!”
The new round of attacks was to sow discord between Tan Si’s fans and the company. Seeing this, Song Xin was very satisfied. He gestured for his subordinates to follow this rhythm and slowly bring up the next topic.
