Although it did not come to the point where everything was spoon-fed to Finn, it was pretty close to that.And now he was going to crouch down and milk a cow?Finn's face darkened as soon as he touched the cow.The cameraman even deliberately zoomed into his hand and the look on Finn's face turned even more awful. Finn just could not bring himself to touch the cow as his hand hovered in the air.Derek smirked after seeing that."Finn, why don't you just follow me back on Facebook directly? I'll milk your ten buckets for you."Finn's expression became even darker."Did I ask for your help?"Derek chuckled. "All right then. I'll get started first, okay?"Finn scoffed coldly, "Go ahead if you want to."He did not feel like talking to Derek anymore.Lauren noticed Finn just stayed there without doing anything, so she squatted down beside him with concern. "Finn, would you like me to help you with this? It looks very tough to milk a cow...""It's fine," Finn turned her down nonc
Seeing Lauren's eager eyes, Wyneth felt like she was not holding just a jacket, but something very precious."Take it, take it." Wyneth gave it to her."Thank you!" Lauren took the jacket and tie thrillingly.That was probably her first time getting so close to her idol.She initially thought that it was already a great honor to be in the same variety show as Finn. She would never dare to dream of holding Finn's clothes in her arms.Lauren felt like after holding Finn's clothes, she would not need to shower that night. Also, she was going to keep the outfit she was wearing and frame it to cherish it forever.Wyneth had no idea what Lauren was thinking at all. Besides, she never knew what it felt like to be a fan of someone. However, after meeting Yoyo and now Lauren, she could understand them more.Finn was probably provoked by what Derek said earlier, so he adjusted himself and started taking the competition seriously.To him, it was fine to lose a competition or follow just a
Coincidentally, Wyneth was coming out of the kitchen, and she saw Finn returning with Lauren. Then, she casually said, "Oh, you guys are back. Wash your hands and let's eat. We still have other tasks to do in the afternoon.""Wyneth, did you make all of this yourself?" Lauren looked at the dishes on the table, feeling surprised and astonished. She felt like it must have been very difficult to prepare such a feast."Yeah.""Wow! You're unbelievable! I mean it!" Lauren was genuinely impressed.Derek could not help but lift his brows and smile, giving Wyneth a big thumbs-up.However, when Finn saw the food on the table, his face immediately darkened.He stood there with an icy and gloomy aura. Nobody there noticed it, but the camera captured everything."Let's wash our hands and eat," Wyneth said.She spoke very softly, but her voice sounded gentle and powerful. Lauren recollected herself and reluctantly put down Finn's jacket before going to wash her hands.Derek followed suit.
On the other side, the trio team did not share the same good fortune. They had wrestled with their morning task till midday, with the lion's share of the work falling to Harry and Henry. Giada had barely lifted a finger. Harry, having borne the brunt of the work, was now exhausted to the bone, his clothes soaked through, looking as though he had been dredged from the depths of a lake. Seeing him in such a state, Giada could not help but recoil, her distaste for his bedraggled appearance plain on her face.Harry, already worn down to a nub, felt a simmering resentment at her reaction. "What are you flinching for? If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be in this state, would I?"Giada found herself speechless. She longed to retort, but considering she was still teamed up with him, and might need his help in the afternoon, she thought better of it. If she lashed out now, he might refuse to help her later. Biting her lip, she suppressed her temper and forced a chuckle. "I didn't mean anything
By the time they wrapped up their chaos and returned to their lodging, the other team had already eaten dinner and retreated to their rooms for some well-earned rest. Upon hearing the news, the trio could only exchange blank looks.Meanwhile, Lauren had managed to wash off her day's exhaustion. Despite a day's worth of filming, she felt far from tired. In fact, she was bursting with energy. Fresh out of the shower, she darted straight to Wyneth."Wyneth, you can tell me about your relationship with Finn now, right?" Her curiosity was killing her, an itch she had restrained all day because of Wyneth's steadfast discretion. Now, her eyes shone with eagerness, fixed on Wyneth's beautiful face. "Are you two dating? No, wait, that doesn't seem right. So, is he pursuing you? Gosh, I can't even picture my idol chasing after someone."Wyneth just looked at her, wordless."So, is that it? Is that it?""None of the above," Wyneth finally spoke, shaking her head. "Family.""Family?" Lauren'
Seeing Giada, Lauren felt a surge of unease. With that smile plastered on her face, Giada reminded Lauren of an old adage—beware of Greeks bearing gifts. 'But who am I to spurn such an offer? After all, one shouldn't burn bridges, especially those that lead to more illustrious names,' Lauren thought. Thus, like a timid little lamb, she followed Giada outside.Everyone was taking their rest at this time, so the surroundings were quiet save for Giada and her manager Natalie. Upon seeing Lauren, Natalie quickly stepped forward, reaching out to clasp Lauren's wrist in a show of false intimacy. "Lauren, you've been working so hard today, haven't you?"Lauren said nothing.Natalie continued, "You were startled by Giada's outburst yesterday, right? She didn't mean to take it out on you. She just had a minor upset beforehand and lost control. I hope you aren't upset."'So that's why they called me out here?' Lauren realized. Giada was still hung up on Finn, but she did not see why they wou
"Very well, you're a good sport. Go on then. Tomorrow, when we're assembling our teams, you come to me and propose the switch yourself, got it?"Lauren nodded, shame washing over her. As she walked away, her head felt light and fuzzy. When she made it back to her room, it took a moment for her to regain her bearings.Wyneth, noticing the subtle change in Lauren's demeanor and movements since her return, asked, "What's wrong?"Shaking her head, Lauren mumbled, "No, nothing."Wyneth had not taken note of who had summoned Lauren outside. She only knew that she had left shortly after opening the door. Given that they were all adults, Wyneth did not pry into Lauren's affairs. Seeing that Lauren did not want to talk about it, Wyneth let it be and got ready for bed.The next day, before they departed, the group gathered. Wyneth moved to the side to apply her sunscreen. Lauren, originally intending to join Wyneth, had just started moving when she heard a soft cough from Giada. Lauren stop
A sense of tension hung in the air, reflected in the faces of the guests and crew members present. Aside from Harry's team and the photographers from the day before, everyone knew that Finn and Wyneth were acquainted. Finn's request for Wyneth's sunscreen seemed harmless enough. But Giada's motive was a tad too blatant.Finn looked at the sunscreen bottle, his eyes darkening. When Giada had greeted him yesterday, he considered her a junior. Without a change in expression, he reached past the spray-on sunscreen Giada offered and took the lotion from Wyneth's hand.Giada's smile froze on her lips. "F-Finn, don't you like using spray-on sunscreen?""Yes," Finn responded nonchalantly.Giada's hand hung in mid-air, awkwardly caught between withdrawal and staying put.Harry, with his straight-forward nature, hurried over, calling out, "Give me some, give me some. I got sunburnt yesterday."Though Giada did not fancy Harry, his boisterous intervention helped to diffuse the awkwardness.
