Xiao Yi placed a hand on Li Zexuan’s shoulder. “The scarf my mom knitted is nice and warm. You can ask her for one.”

Li Zexuan lowered his head. “That won’t do. Let’s see if Ms. Lin comes around and makes me one. Now, let’s get on with the experiment.”

The four children were experimenting in the yard. Only their heads could be seen in the camera. Everyone was wearing masks and gloves. Their faces were barely visible.

Wheatley saw Xiao Yi mix some powder. She could not remember the names of the chemicals. They were called Potassium Nitrate or something. It gave off a red color when mixed with something else.

Finally, Xiao Yi poured the mixture over a table tennis ball. The ball burned, and red smoke rolled up from it.

Lin Wan and Xia MO ran outside because they thought there was a fire. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[Why is there so much smoke? It’s red! It can’t be a fire, right?]

[Teacher Xia and Lin Wan look really worried.]

[It can’t be… An accident on the first day!]

In the courtyard, the children high-fived each other on the success of their experiment.

“Wow, the top student is so amazing! My classmates get really excited when we have science experiments. Brother Xiao Yi, you actually know how to do these experiments!” Ning Xiaoxiao looked at the red smoke in awe.

‘So, girls also like doing science experiments…’ thought Li Zexuan to himself.

“The power of knowledge…”

“Brother Xiao Yi, this is so magical. Do you know how to do other experiments too?” Wheatley clapped her hands.

“Yes. I can make paper that doesn’t burn in fire. I can create a liquid that doesn’t pour out,” said Xiao Yi. “But I don’t have materials to conduct those experiments here.”

Wheatley was full of admiration. “Are you also a magician like your father?” she asked. “I know that Uncle Xiao can do magic.”

“This is completely different from the magic my father does,” said Xiao Yi. “This is more about using the knowledge of physics and chemistry. I will see if I have any more materials to do other things.” He took off his mask. To him, these were just simple experiments.

The children agreed among themselves to meet at Xiao Yi’s house every afternoon for new experiments.

When Xia MO and Lin Wan came out of the house, they saw that the children had masks and gloves on. They were standing around the red smoke.

“Xiao Yi, you did this?” Xia MO asked sternly.

“Yeah. We just mixed some chemicals and poured it on the ball to create a red smoke. You should’ve seen it!” Xiao Yi didn’t know why his mother looked so scared.

“I don’t care!” said Xia Mo. “Next time you do your silly experiments, just inform me. We were so scared that there was a big fire!”

“How can there be a fire? The smoke looks completely different from ordinary smoke,” said Xiao Yi.

“Don’t argue with me, young man,” said Xia Mo. “I don’t want you talking back at me in front of all these children. Do you understand?”

“Yes,” said Xiao Yi. “I will be more careful next time.”

The bullet screen on the Li family’s livestream room was bombarded with

comments.

[Magician Xiao, hurry back to your house! Your house is on fire. There is red

smoke everywhere! ]

[Mr. Li, your son, and your wife are in Xiao Yi’s house. Hurry and go there. Put the fire out!]

Xiao Yi and Li Yanchen looked at the bullet screen together. They got up and ran to Xiao Yi’s house with buckets of water.

When they carried the buckets of water to Xiao Yi’s house, they saw the children squatting around the smoke.

“Oh, Xiao Yi was just doing one of his experiments,” said Xiao Tianlin as he set the bucket down.

Li Yanchen was speechless.

“Brother Li, it’s nothing,” said Xiao Tianlin. “We misunderstood. The child was just doing his experiment.” Xiao Tianlin turned to the camera. “Also, please verify your information before you cause panic.”

“Where is Wanwan?” Li Yanchen walked to the courtyard and looked around for Lin Wan.

Lin Wan and Xia MO were in front of the camera. When Lin Wan saw Li

Yanchen, he hid the knitting needles.

“What are you doing here?”

“The viewers in the comments said there was a fire here,” said Li Yanchen. “The kids were just trying out an experiment. Are you okay?”

“Yes, I am fine. The livestream shouldn’t be left empty. You should go back.” Lin Wan wanted to continue with her knitting.

“Alright,” said Li Yanchen. “Come home early.”

Li Yanchen and Xiao Tianlin returned to the Li family house.

[Mr. Li, we are so sorry. We didn’t verify the information clearly before reporting here.]

We made you run all the way for nothing.]

[Yes. We are sorry. We didn’t mean any harm.]

Xiao Tianlin looked at the bullet screen. “It’s alright,” he said. “You were all worried. Anyway, what were we talking about?”

[We were just asking you about how you manage your child’s study time and break time.]

“Oh, I remember now.” Xiao Tianlin continued to discuss his parenting experiences with the viewers.

In Wheatley’s livestream room, her fans had also rushed to inform Nannan about the fire. However, Nannan and Michael weren’t watching the comments, so they didn’t know about the red smoke.

When they returned to the camera, everyone explained that it was just a false alarm.

Wheatley was not at home, and Nannan felt a little bored. She had let Wheatley go and play with the other kids while she stayed in front of the camera.

Tao Jingyuan was still answering questions about certain laws in the country. She saw Nannan approaching her house.

“Hello, Nannan,” she said. “Do you want to do a live broadcast with me? Zheng Kuo went to the orchard with the children.” She poured a glass of water and offered it to Nannan.

[Nannan is here. Nannan, I really like the clothes you are wearing today.]

[Nannan, when will restock the clothes in your shop? I only managed to buy a few and saw that they were all out of stock!]

[Lawyer Tao, you just said that even if the house was bought before marriage, the loan will be divided between two partners equally?]

Tao Jingyuan patiently answered everyone’s questions.

Nannan looked at her with admiration. She looked so calm and confident while answering such complicated questions.

Time passed. Finally, Tao Jingyuan was done with the questions.

“Alright, Nannan and I want to go for a short walk. We have been sitting here for so long that our legs are numb. We will be back soon.” Tao Jingyuan was worried that Nannan would feel bored sitting and listening to her talk about the law.

The two of them went on a walk toward the field. They talked about their family lives.

In the orchard, the three children were still playing hide-and -go-seek. Zheng Kuo sat and played his flute as he watched them.

After participating in the show, Feifei had shown significant improvements. He was more talkative and extroverted now.

Zheng Kuo was pleased. He smiled and looked at the children. He played “Ode to Joy” on his flute.

In the fourth episode of the show, the families got along well with each other. It was unexpected and harmonious.

Ji Hanzhi landed at the Yun City airport. She booked a hotel nearby to rest for the night before heading to Lan Village. Without the Festival Group’s pass, she couldn’t enter Lan Village. She searched for a hotel near the village and found one just two kilometers away.

She would wait for Li Yanchen and Lin Wan this time.

Lulu sent pictures and short video clips of Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan. However, that didn’t shake Ji Hanzhi’s resolve for revenge.

She was infuriated with the way things had turned out. Why was she hated by everyone so much that her career took a nosedive while Lin Wan’s popularity increased day by day? She didn’t care if she died, but she would drag Lin Wan down with her.

Ji Hanzhi had brought acid with her. She had been locked up for fifteen days in jail, but that didn’t matter. She had a plan in mind..
