In the stream, question marks from the netizens followed one after another.

The fans, in particular, had realized that while they didn’t want to see Xiang Yi trying to cling to Shi Sui, they were more reluctant for her to ignore Shi Sui!

This was a huge slap in the face to Shi Yingdi and, by proxy, their faces as well!

Li Jianyu didn’t know whether to smile or laugh as he tried to redirect. “Uhm... Xiang Yi, the manor is so huge, you might not hear him if he shouts for you.”

“I have this.” Xiang Yi rummaged through the rattan basket near the door.

The on-site staff and the audience in the broadcast watched as she took out a...

Loudspeaker ??

It was one of those loudspeakers used by roadside stalls, the one used to broadcast “The Jiang Nan tannery has shut down”...That kind of speaker.

The staff: ???

The netizens: ???

Silence. A strange silence.

The audience couldn’t picture the elegant and gentle Shi Yingdi using this thing.

Against everyone’s expectations, Shi Sui actually showed interest in the large object and even consulted Xiang Yi on how to use it.

Li Jianyu looked at this harmonious ‘teaching’ scene with a trace of trance in his expression. He already had a hunch that the users in the psychological category on the stream site will cut out scenes of Shi Sui holding the loudspeaker and edit it with soundtracks like “wallets that were originally $100, $200, or $300 are now all $20″* and turn it into memes...

Xiang Yi only had to go over it once for Shi Sui to understand.

Feeling very satisfied with baby Sui’s learning ability, Xiang Yi cut off a daisy from nearby and handed it to him. “Excellent.”

Shi Sui pinched the stem and slightly curved his peach blossom eyes. “Does this count as... a little red flower**?”

Xiang Yi cocked her head and thought that her white moonlight needed some pampering. Hence, she promised him: “If you collect five, you can place an order.”

Shi Sui’s eyes lit up.

This scene had been shot by Li Jianyu himself. The lighting engineer had softened the light, turning the scene warm and beautiful. Through their own drama filter, the spectators in the broadcast room were satisfied, but the fans had gone crazy.

—[I told you this woman is a scheming b*tch! Her trap is too deep!]

—[QQ our Shisui is too pure, don’t be fooled by that evil lady’s little flowers!]

—[This vase is too good at acting! First, she plays the f*cking gentle personal chef, then rejects his WeChat add, then comes to exchange flowers for dishes. Who can stand this!!]

At Muyao network.

Director Chen’s expression was dark and gloomy as he lowered his head, hurriedly recording something.

Shi Sui approached the main entrance just in time to greet the car carrying the two guests.

Yan Zhenhua had a square face and looked very serious and fierce when he wasn’t smiling. But when he did, his appearance had the innocent naivety of a child. He was middle-aged and inevitably a bit out of shape, with flabby arms and a beer belly.

Yan Nai, standing next to him, had attractive facial features but still had some baby fat around his cheeks. He was dressed in a sporty and casual attire, radiating youthful energy.

“Long time no see, Director Yan.” Shi Sui took the initiative and greeted him.

Yan Zhenhua smiled heartily and patted him on the shoulder. They exchanged a few greetings before he asked Yan Nai to say hello.

Yan Nai hadn’t officially debuted yet and seemed particularly shy in front of the camera. “Hello, Uncle Shi.”

“Doesn’t that make you sound old? Maybe just call him big brother.” Yan Zhenhua teased.

Shi Sui gently responded, “It’s up to him. Children are straightforward like that, and I’ve already reached an uncle’s age anyway.”

The live comments:

—[Didi*** is too cute! Debut right now!!]

—[I want to be called a child by Shi Yingdi as well ahhhh!!!!! ]

—[You’re only 27! Not old at all. You’re a gege, not an uncle!!]

Translator’s Notes:

* This is a continuous joke from the “Jiang Nan Tannery factory has shut down”. It was originally a loudspeaker broadcast for a roadside store closing down that began trending on the internet due to the staff’s intolerance of the owner, and later turned into several remixes. If interested, I believe the original clip is still on YouTube.

** ‘Little red flower’ is an award usually given to elementary/kindergarten students for performing/completing a task well

*** Didi means little brother, but it was used in an endearing way in this case; usually used by older fans of younger idols
