Chapter 36

"Please check in at the following attractions in five days\' time, and complete the related tasks..."

As he spoke, he showed the card to everyone, on which was written—

London Bridge, Westminster Palace, Tower Bridge, Big Ben, Notting Hill, Buckingham Palace, London Eye, Hyde Park, British Museum.

Sheng Lin thought for a moment, and said,

"Five days for eight attractions, that\'s not too much pressure. I just don\'t know if there will be much financial pressure, after all our budget is limited."

Gu Minghua was very familiar with London, and agreed with Sheng Lin\'s words:

"And many of the attractions are near the River Thames, we can take the bus, there are many affordable restaurants nearby, we can save money and do some other things."

Chen Chen said, "There is a Burberry flagship store in Regent Street, we can go there for afternoon tea, I also want to buy two coats..."

Qin Kaili also said where she wanted to go:

"I want to go to that Shakespeare theater, it should also be near the River Thames."

Everyone cheered, and began to look forward to the upcoming trip.

But the director\'s side laughed, they really didn\'t understand the situation. Doing a variety show wasn\'t like shooting a travel documentary, if everything went so smoothly, what would be interesting to watch?

The director signaled to his assistant, who walked over holding the task card.

"Task one, first stop London Bridge, please take photos with one hundred British people respectively."

The six of them were stunned, this first task was difficult to say the least, but certainly not easy.

Qin Kaili asked the program staff without thinking:

"Then how do I know who is British and who is not?"

Staff member: "You can ask them, we can lower the requirement a little, native English speakers also count."

Qin Kaili was a little frustrated, this meant she would have to speak a foreign language, which was what she was worst at.

...

They couldn\'t afford taxi fares, so under Gu Minghua\'s lead, they walked to the station and took the bus to arrive smoothly at the first attraction today.

It was now 10:30 in the morning. In order to complete the task as soon as possible, no one was in the mood to appreciate the beauty of the River Thames. They decided to complete the task in groups and then go for lunch.

Qin Wei asked the program staff:

"What is our reward for completing the task smoothly?"

The staff took out some British pounds and waved them in front of the group. This was the cost of one night\'s hotel stay. They would subsidize it if the task was completed.

It was a significant amount of money, after all the program\'s funding for them was limited. Sheng Lin had calculated that with the money the program gave them, the five of them would have to be very frugal just to barely make ends meet, let alone now there were six people.

Without this extra income, the subsequent expenses would simply not be enough.

So no matter what, they had to get it.

Given the limited time, they decided to complete the task in groups. The six of them could be divided into three groups of two, and with Gu Minghua\'s naturally good English, he could take someone who didn\'t speak English to complete the task. Although Sheng Lin\'s English wasn\'t great, he had also been working hard to learn from Gu Minghua along the way. Plus he had some basic skills already, so he could manage on his own with some difficulty, though it would be tiring.

Then there was Qin Wei, but the other three members didn\'t know Qin Wei\'s abilities, and were obviously not confident in her.

Qin Kaili quickly grabbed Gu Minghua\'s arm and said,

"I\'ll team up with this little brother today, his English is good and he can lead me."

Chen Chen was a little unhappy, but out of respect for Qin Kaili as a senior, she didn\'t tear her face openly. But when it came to her own interests, she still had to fight for herself a little. She tidied her hair and said to Qin Kaili:

"Teacher Qin, isn\'t this a bit unfair? Handsome brother Gu\'s English is good, if you team up with him then you won\'t have to do anything?"

She was clearly implying Qin Kaili wanted to slack off. Qin Kaili couldn\'t keep face, and let go of Gu Minghua\'s arm:

"Oh? So it\'s fair if you team up with little Gu?"

Chen Chen looked away:

"I didn\'t say that..."

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Of course everyone in the team wanted to team up with Gu Minghua, that way completing the task would require almost no effort.

Liu Xin saw what was happening and came out to coordinate:

"Then let me decide!

Sheng Lin go with Hayden, you two boys have good strength, and there\'s Hayden\'s language advantage, you guys aim for ten people each...

As for Chen Chen and Teacher Qin...Weiwei and I will each lead one person, and complete the task for thirty people each."

Gu Minghua and Sheng Lin immediately agreed, afraid Liu Xin would change her mind.

As soon as Chen Chen heard this, she immediately started calculating in her mind—

She didn\'t have any grudges with Qin Wei, but Qin Wei was famously a silly beauty in the industry, to put it bluntly she wasn\'t very educated, even making frequent mistakes in her native language, let alone foreign languages.

She didn\'t know what Gu Minghua and Liu Xin were thinking, confident to let Qin Wei complete the task alone.

Anyway, she was not confident...

Thinking of Liu Xin again, she was indeed someone Chen Chen disliked, but her English was relatively good. After all she had handled renting the car and returning to the hotel entirely by herself, so while overbearing she was also responsible. It would be better to team up with her...

The two were merely incompatible personally, but could still get along for the show.

After weighing it up, Chen Chen made up her mind.

"Then I\'ll go with Liu Xin."

But Qin Kaili was faster to speak out:

"I also want to go with Liu Xin!"

Chen Chen was a little anxious now:

"I want to go with Liu Xin too!"

Liu Xin didn\'t say anything, just had a difficult expression, though she was actually a little happy inside - both of them chose her rather than Qin Wei, it felt like recognition for her!

"Or... Teacher Chen, come with me..."

Qin Wei tentatively asked, feeling like slacking off was one thing, but being completely uninvolved wasn\'t good either.

At this point Chen Chen was also impatient, so she spoke without thinking, directly saying to Qin Wei:

"My English isn\'t good and your English isn\'t good either, what\'s the point of me going with you? Neither of us can complete the task, I don\'t want to drag the team down!"

Qin Wei was silent, actually because she was too lazy to explain, but in their eyes, it seemed she was a little angry.

After Chen Chen finished speaking, she reacted that she shouldn\'t have said this in front of the camera, and hurried to make up for it:

"Weiwei, I didn\'t mean it that way, I\'m not good with words... Actually it\'s just...neither of us are capable, we need someone capable to lead us, right? It was all just thinking about the team..."

It was the same as not explaining. Qin Wei just replied:

"Mm, you guys decide."

Seeing the stalemate, Sheng Lin silently raised his hand:

"Um...how about...I switch with Teacher Qin Wei...actually my English is pretty decent..."

Liu Xin glared at him:

"No!"
