148 A Large-Scale Public Display of Affection
Ji Hanzhi had watched Lin Wanâs live stream before. She recalled how she was attacked by the viewers. She hadnât even retaliated. But Ji Hanzhi wasnât like that. She would retort against anyone who tried to criticize her without reason.
[I like sisterâs personality. If she is accused without basis, she retaliates.]
[The internet isnât a place without laws.]
[Hanzhi just arrived. How do you know she has a motive? youâre just spreading rumors without evidence. Youâll be legally responsible for spreading rumors.]
[Iâm so scared. I like you.]
In an instant, there was unanimous support for Ji Hanzhi.
Ji Hanzhi was secretly happy. The popularity that she had gained in her last variety show was like a protective talisman around her.
Lin Wan discovered an apricot tree in the orchard that had golden apricots covering its branches. However, because of how tall the tree was, not even Li Yanchen could reach any of the fruit.
He had an idea. He knelt and cupped his hand. âWanwan, you get on my hands and pick some.â
The cameraman followed behind and quickly recorded the scene.
[So, what if Ji Hanzhi is his ex-girlfriend in reality? Mr. Li only has eyes for Ms. Lin now.]
[I really want this kind of love. Mommy, I want to find an old man.]
[Even a 38-year-old man can be so romantic.]
[Li Yanchen looks so happy! He is even smiling. He is so gentle when with Lin Wan.]
[I saw it too. Lin Wanâs eyes were looking at the apricot, and Li Yanchen was looking at Lin Wan.]
[I want to fall in love. Please give me a man who is old but gentle.]n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
[@previous poster, Iâm already 40 years old. Will that work for you?]
[Iâm only 24. I canât go over 34, at the most.]
[Iâm 30.]
The Li familyâs live broadcast room became a hunt for love. Many single people let out wails of agony.
Ji Hanzhi had brought two phones, one to watch her familyâs live broadcast, and the other to watch the Li familyâs live broadcast.
She turned off the livestream when she saw Li Yanchen looking at Lin Wan so tenderly. It pierced her heart. She lowered her head so that her face wasnât visible in the live stream.
[Sister, youâre off the camera.]
Nannan went home to pick up a diamond necklace and then rushed to the Ji familyâs courtyard.
âHanzhi?â
Ji Hanzhi looked up to see Nannan smiling at her.
[is Nannan going to team up with Sister Hanzhi?]
[Didnât Lin Wan and Xia Mo also team up?]
[This is very normal. Thereâs nothing to say. Our Nannan canât always be alone. Lin Wan and Xia Mo canât squeeze anyone else in their friendship. She also needs friends.]
[Yes, the little ones also choose people they like to be friends with.]
âNannan!â Ji Hanzhi got up and carried a stool for Nannan. Nannan pointed to the backyard and Ji Hanzhi nodded.
[Thereâs no one in the live broadcast!]
[Sister and Nannan went out for a walk, right?]
[Itâs really boring to sit in the yard all the time. Iâm going to prepare lunch too. See you in the afternoon.]
In the backyard of the Ji family, Nannan opened the box to reveal the diamond necklace. âI watched your show. You said, diamonds were a way for you to relieve stress. I admire you so much! You are a single mother with two children to raise and you do so well in your career.â
âYou watched âMy Mother is Supermanâ?â Ji Hanzhi laughed.
âYes, I like your personality. Youâre not pretentious at all.â Nannan praised Ji Hanzhi. âYouâre not like Lin Wan at all.â
When she heard Lin Wanâs name, Ji Hanzhi became alert. âWas Nannan trying to fish for information?â She didnât look like someone who had a grudge on Lin Wan. In fact, in the first episode Nannan was always focused on her own family.
âLin Wan has someone to pamper her. No one is there to spoil me so I have to learn to survive by myself,â said Ji Hanzhi jokingly.
âYouâre the most beautiful mother. Who knows there might be people out there wanting to pamper you too?â said Nannan. âHave you thought of finding someone else?â
Ji Hanzhi felt that Nannan was a little strange. This was the first time they had met, and she was asking some probing, private questions. What was she trying to do?
âI havenât thought about it for now. Besides, my focus right now is my two daughters. I want them to have a good life. I donât need to find a man to make things difficult for me,â said Ji Hanzhi.
âThatâs true. Sister Hanzhi, you are such an encouraging mother. I want to learn from you. Wheatley was just saying that she wanted to play with Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan. Maybe the girls can come over to my house later?â
The two of them talked casually for a while.
After Nannan left, Ji Hanzhi thought about it. âWas Nannan trying to team up with her?â
At Xia Yiâs house, Xia Mo was preparing the materials for tomorrowâs live broadcast. Xiao Yi and Li Zexuan had left for the basketball court. Xiao Tianlin played chess in the courtyard. They didnât need to cook for lunch, so everyone felt more relaxed.
At Wheatleyâs house, Wheatley carried her favorite dolls and was preparing to go play with Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan. Nannan just reached home when she saw Wheatley.
âWheatley, are you going to find Tuan Tuan and Xuan Xuan? They are at Feifeiâs,â said Nannan.
âOh! Then I will go to Feifeiâs house too! Thank you, Auntie!â
The fans also followed.
[Feifeiâs house is the liveliest.]
[Is Feifei marketing clay? Thereâs no more space at that table.]
Feifei sat in the middle, while Li Zekai, Tuan Tuan, and Yuan Yuan sat on the other three sides. When Wheatley arrived, she could only stand beside Feifei because there was no empty stool to sit on.
âFeifei, can I join you? I brought my favorite dolls. Can you make dolls with clay?â Wheatley asked as she hugged her doll.
...
âSure, but youâll have to wait for a while. I still owe everyone a lot of clay figurines. Wheatley, weâre making snails. Do you want to try? Itâs very simple.â
[Feifeiâs team has grown again.]
[The children are so cute together.]
Tao Jingyuan and Zheng Kuo were in charge of preparing clay of different colors, and they were very busy.
In the past, when Feifei was at home, he would do it alone in the small room. Now, there was actually a group of children learning from him. Seeing that so many children liked Feifei, Tao Jingyuanâs eyes turned red.
Zheng Kuo patted his wifeâs back. âFeifei is great. He can even teach others.â
âYes.â
[Festival Group, can you add one more camera to Feifeiâs house? I want to see him from a 360-degree angle.]
[The camera canât fit so many people.]
[Isnât Feifei very proud right now?]
[The little angel is awesome.]
...
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan were so focused on molding the little snail that they had completely forgotten about their promise to talk more to Li Zekai.
Yuan Yuan raised the flat little clay and asked, âFeifei, is it like this?â
It did not look like a snail or a lollipop. âA snailâs body is like this,â he demonstrated. âDonât flatten it too much.â
âFeifei, howâs mine?â Tuan Tuan also raised the small snail that she had just made and asked.
âYou can make shells for the snails.â Feifei pointed at the snail in Yuan Yuanâs hand.
The children were having a lot of fun.
It was almost 11 and her daughters were still not home. Ji Hanzhi decided to drop by Feifeiâs house to check on them.
On the way back, she bumped into Li Yanchen, who was returning from the orchard. Ji Hanzhiâs breath caught in her throat when she saw them still holding hands.
