The Heiress Strikes Back-Chapter 772 - : A Small Interlude
Chapter 772: A Small Interlude
Living in the jungle, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, one could come into contact with nature at zero distance. Every day, one would hear birds chirping, insects chirping, and frogs groaning.
Sharon even felt that she had forgotten what the sound of traffic was like. Although she was anxious every day to survive and find food here, it was also a kind of happiness and relief not to have to face those annoying people from the Harris family.
She slept very soundly last night. When she woke up, Sharon felt much better, and her depressed mood from yesterday had disappeared.
Sharon stretched and said to Melinda, who had just opened her sleepy eyes, “Morning.”
“Morning.” Melinda was still yawning. “I’ll sleep for another ten minutes.” Melinda turned over and went back to sleep.
As for Melissa, she was still sleeping soundly and showed no signs of waking
up.
Sharon put on her clothes, tied her hair with a headband, and came out of the tent very gently.
Sharon came to the clear stream nearby and brushed her teeth with the toothbrush that Dan had made previously. The toothbrush was already a little worn, but fortunately, it could still be used.
Sharon rinsed her hair and washed her tace in the stream.
Ever since she came to Man vs. Wild, she had not taken a shower. Her hair had only been washed a few times with the river water. However, without makeup, it seemed that it was not that easy for her skin to produce oil. When the breeze blew, her hair and skin felt much more refreshed.
It had rained last night, so the air today felt as fresh as if it had been washed clean by the rain.
When Sharon washed up and returned to the tent, the others were already up.
Because there were no electronic devices or entertainment in the wilderness, everyone went to bed early after the sky became dark. Therefore, everyone’s sleep schedule was very healthy.
Dan tidied his messy hair and looked at Sharon. “Let’s go somewhere further away to look for food today. We have already picked all the edible plants nearby.”
“Alright, it’s best if we can catch some more fish or insects. This way, we can replenish some protein,” Sharon said.
When Melissa heard that they were going to catch worms, she hurriedly said, “I don’t want to catch worms. Even if we do, I wouldn’t eat them even if you beat me to death.”
“Some bugs are a very good source of protein. If you’re still picky at this time, it’ll be too late to regret it when your body can’t take it.” Sharon was a little helpless and felt that Melissa was really a little muddle-headed, but she still persuaded her kindly.
When Melissa heard that she was going to eat worms, she instinctively felt disgusted and refuted, “Anyway, I’m not eating it. Whoever likes to eat it can eat it. I don’t want to stay in this lousy place for a second longer. I want to leave the show.”
Seeing that Melissa was about to quit the recording of the show, Shane quickly persuaded, “Alright, Sharon is only hypothesizing that if we catch a worm now, it’s best if we eat some to replenish our protein. We don’t know if we can catch a worm yet. Moreover, even if we really catch them, we won’t force you to eat them. It’s up to you whether you want to eat it or not.” 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝒎
Man vs. Wild was a variety show with a challenge. Apart from testing the guests’ ability to survive in the wilderness, it also tested their teamwork and cooperation. If one guest withdrew, it meant that the challenge had failed.
“Quit then. We’ll continue the challenge. No one is begging you to stay,” Melinda said coldly.
Melissa had always been the one who helped the least and caused the most trouble in the team. Melinda felt that it was a good thing for her to quit, lest she kept dragging everyone down.
“As long as one person withdraws, our challenge will fail,” Dan said with a frown. Although he also felt that it was not easy to persevere, he did not want to give up so easily, especially when he could still persevere. He did not want to be forced to declare defeat when he did not want to give up yet.
The production team had previously explained the rules of this survival—
Survival in the wilderness alone tested one’s survival experience and ability. Survival in the wilderness as a team also tested the understanding, tolerance, and cooperation between members in the team.
Therefore, guests needed to have the ability to support, comfort, and tolerate one another..
