Forgive Us, My Dear Sister novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279 It’s Double Standard

The group changed into traditional attire, adjusting their clothes and makeup accordingly.

Women tied up their hair while the men donned wigs.

They strolled toward Cubilis gate, where a queue was forming to enter the city, and they followed suit.

This spectacle attracted numerous onlookers and photographers, but the production team had taken security measures, preventing anyone from approaching or harassing the guests.

When their turn arrived, they noticed soldiers in traditional attire, clad in armor and wielding spears, guarding both sides of the gate.

Individuals were also assigned to distribute entrance-tokens.

Upon receiving these tokens, they discovered that the wooden pieces were engraved with the date.

At this point, a sense of novelty and amusement finally settled upon them.

Tokens were either hung on their clothes or stowed away as the group entered the city.

What met their eyes were ancient, picturesque streets filled with people adorned in traditional attire. Occasionally, horse-drawn carriages and ox-wagons, designed to resemble ancient times, carried passengers.

It felt like a journey back in time, hundreds of years ago.

Unlike modern tourist attractions, these horse-drawn carriages and ox-wagon were authentic.

It charged according to the distance, with fares starting at 3 dollars.

Reluctant to spend, the guests hesitated to use them.

Zac turned to Simone, suggesting, “Simone, how about we team up to earn some money?” His intention was not to take advantage but rather to spend time with her.

However, a staff member reminded them, “No, after Jonah assigned you to different groups, only members within the same group can work together. You can’t form new groups.

Otherwise, the grouping would be meaningless.

Upon hearing this, Simone proposed, “Let’s work separately. We can meet at a certain place

for meals or rest.”

Disappointed but understanding, Zac nodded, “Alright, let’s stay in touch in a group chat and plan a meal together.”

He sought confirmation from the staff member, asking, “Can we use the money we earn to treat each other to a meal?” The staff member agreed.

In another group, Eric suggested, “We’ll work hard to earn money and treat you all to a meal.”

The other three agreed as well.

Then, the staff member suggested, “You can split up and work separately now.”

Zac suggested, “Let’s not split up for now. Let’s have a meal together. We each have 15 dollars, so let’s find a restaurant and eat together before we go our separate ways.”

Zac desired to share this first meal in Cubilis with Simone.

Upon thinking this way, he cursed himself again for his bad luck.

Others in the group agreed and said, “Yes, let’s have a good meal together.”

“Let’s enjoy a good meal together, and we’ll split the bill later.” Normally, they wouldn’t want to eat with Andrew, Jodie, Aaron, and Leon.

But since they were all assigned to the same group this time, they had no choice but to share. a meal together.

Aaron responded enthusiastically, “Sure, let’s eat together.”

It would help improve the relationship with everyone, so Leon nodded and said, “Sharing sounds good!”

He was willing to do anything as long as he could be with Simone.

Upon following the majority rules, Jodie, who wanted to object, could only remain silent.

Andrew, still indifferent to variety shows, was indifferent to this suggestion.

So, the group found a restaurant and booked a private room that could accommodate eleven people.

The menu and dishes had an antique style, and the utensils were all traditional.

Zac handed the menu to Simone and said, “Ladies, take a look and see what you’d like to cat”

Andrew’s eye-rolling response was prompted by this gesture. He certainly knows how to be

attentive.

It was a trait that both Leon and Aaron observed, as Zac seemed overly focused on Simone. It became apparent why he was always trailing her.

Simone took the menu, perusing it alongside Tina and Keira. They didn’t order much, opting for just one dish each. Jodie felt completely ignored, causing her eyes to turn red with a sense of injustice.
