Chapter 71: Fake Daughter in the Entertainment Industry
The second day of the trip began with the crowing of cocks. The mornings in the countryside always start earlier than in the city.
Xie Yan was a light sleeper, so he opened his eyes when he heard the noise outside. He lay quietly for a long time before quietly getting up. He was very careful, for fear of waking up Su Youran who was still sleeping soundly.
He got up quietly, took his toiletries and went out. There was a faucet outside the house. Xie Yan quickly washed himself, turned around to make sure Su Youran was still asleep, and then went to the small kitchen next to the house.
He was already very good at washing rice, cooking porridge, and frying eggs. It was just that because the stoves in the countryside were made of clay, it took a lot of effort just to light the fire. Fortunately, the results were not bad in the end, at least the porridge was not burnt and the eggs were not scorched.
Xie Yan looked through the ingredients and stir-fried an extra plate of vegetables, but unfortunately there were no steamed buns or fried dough sticks.
Xie Yan decided to expand the range of recipes he learned. Stir-frying was not enough, he had to learn how to make these pasta dishes as well!
Ah, and milk... Never mind, the one from the sponsor will do, it’s better than nothing, and the main thing is that Ranran can accept it.
Xie Yan couldn't find a glass, so he could only heat the milk and pour it into a bowl. Just as he finished this, he heard someone outside the door shouting:
"Thank you, brother. Are you up?"
Xie Yan quickly stuck his head out of the window, put his index finger between his lips, and spoke in a very low voice:
"I'm up. Ranran is still sleeping. Wait until I make breakfast and wake her up."
Lu Fangyou immediately fell silent, pulled Lu Yichuan into the kitchen, and then said softly:
"We are planning to go to Brother He's place for breakfast, and I was thinking of asking you if you want to come with us."
He looked at the plates and bowls already placed on the stove and couldn't help but exclaim:
"You can cook, too?"
Xie Yan smiled modestly:
“I only know some very simple ones, and I’m still learning the others.”
He looked at the prepared breakfast, hesitated for a while, and finally asked according to the basic principles of interpersonal communication:
"How about staying and eating together?"
Lu Fangyou shook his head quickly:
"No, no, we already talked to Brother He yesterday, he must be waiting for us, we'll be there soon. You guys eat, we'll leave first."
Xie Yan sent them out:
"We have to stay here for three mornings. You and Brother Zheng can't start a fire. It's not good to stay with Brother He all the time. Otherwise, how about staying with Brother Shi and me tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
Although he seems cold and difficult to get along with, he has been in the circle for quite some time after all, so he still knows basic social skills.
The main reason was that the other guests were all very nice, generous, and not fussy about details, and they didn't have any extra thoughts. After a day of contact with them yesterday, Xie Yan felt much more relaxed.
He is not a warm-hearted person and sometimes even appears to be very cold. However, these brothers not only did not reject him, but instead helped him cover up and make jokes in front of the camera.
Xie Yan was also willing to have a heart-to-heart talk. Of course, if possible, he really wanted to exclude those little brats who were thinking about his daughter.
For example, the little kid in front of you who has been staring at the main door.
Xie Yan calmly moved his position to block Lu Yichuan's sight. What's so good about a gate? You don't have X-ray vision!
Lu Yichuan looked up at Xie Yan, who seemed like an insurmountable mountain, and smiled shyly:
"Thank you, uncle!"
But I was muttering in my heart: He doesn’t even let me see the door, how stingy.
Lu Fangyou looked at his son and readily agreed:
"Okay then. I'm sorry to bother you."
Xie Yan smiled:
"It's no trouble. You're welcome, Brother Lu."
Just as Lu Fangyou and Lu Yichuan were about to leave, they saw Zheng Yuan and the listless Zheng Xiche following behind him.
Lu Fangyou was the first to greet:
"Good morning, Brother Zheng. We are going to Brother He's place together."
Zheng Yuan's dark circles were very noticeable. He yawned and said "Good morning". When he saw an acquaintance, he couldn't help complaining:
"Ah, our bed is not suitable for human sleep. It is not only hard but also uneven, just like sleeping on bricks. The thatched house is also drafty. In the middle of summer, I was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night. Can you believe it? And there are mosquitoes... Oh my God, I can only hear the buzzing in my ears all night, and I was scratching my arms in my sleep. I don't know how many times I was bitten! It's so hard!"
He felt like crying when he thought about having to sleep like this all night. Not only his son couldn't stand it, but he couldn't stand it either. He wanted to go home so badly...
Zheng Xiche had just cried in the morning, and his eyes were still visibly swollen. There were too many mosquito bites, and they were very itchy, but Zheng Yuan didn't let him scratch them, for fear of scratching them. The child's mental endurance was weak, and he got emotional all of a sudden and cried until he was coaxed out just now.
When he met others, he lowered his head very embarrassedly, not wanting others to see that he, a man, was crying in shame.
Xie Yan glanced at the two people's exposed arms. They were indeed quite miserable...
"I brought several mosquito repellent bracelets. I'll get two for you when we gather later."
Zhang Heng did not confiscate these daily necessities. Fortunately, he had checked a lot of travel guides before, and some people mentioned that there were many mosquitoes in the countryside and they were poisonous. It was useless to prevent one, so he brought several more.
Zheng Xiche raised his head when he heard Xie Yan's voice. He thought he would see his beloved sister Ranran, but he saw the annoying Lu Yichuan instead. He curled his lips:
How come I can run into you everywhere?
Lu Yichuan didn't even glance at Zheng Xiche. In his opinion, this guy was not as threatening as Shi Yutong in the competition for Ranran's sister.
At least they rely on the advantage of being of the same sex and can hold hands or hug each other whenever they want, which makes him extremely envious.
In comparison, He Junchen is quick-witted, smart and clever, and seems to know more.
What does Zheng Xiche have? Is there something wrong with his brain?
If Zheng Xiche knew what Lu Yichuan was thinking, he would probably jump up and fight him immediately:
I am handsome, sweet-talking, and sincere as the sun and the moon! I am real! Do you understand? You and He Junchen are not as cunning as you at such a young age!
Fortunately, the two of them not only did not have X-ray vision, but also did not have the ability to read minds. For now, they were able to maintain peace and accompany each other to the home of He Junchen, who was more cunning.
Xie Yan didn't want to care what the little rascals thought. After sending away the "uninvited guests", he could finally enjoy breakfast for two with his baby daughter who had just woken up.
Worried that the situation of not having any food for most of the day like yesterday would happen again, Xie Yan coaxed Su Youran into eating a lot. In the end, the two of them arrived at the gathering place with bulging bellies.
In order to make it easier for movement, Xie Yan picked out a set of tops and pants for Su Youran today.
The top is white with a pink polka dot shirt-style short sleeves, the collar is also pink, and there is a big bow behind the neck. The bottom is matched with seven-quarter wide-leg pants, a pair of white ruffled hollow socks and lightweight and compact mesh sneakers.
Her hair was tied into a ponytail, swaying from side to side as she walked, making people's hearts sway with it.
Shi Lei sighed subconsciously:
"Thank you, brother. Your genes are really good."
The boy is handsome and the girl is beautiful. They look like this at such a young age. What will they be like when they grow up?
I just wonder what the little princess's mother looks like? She must be a great beauty, otherwise she wouldn't have given birth to such a delicate child.
He glanced at the father and daughter's faces. Doesn't she look very much like her father? So she looks more like her mother?
Shi Lei looked at his daughter, who looked about 70% like him in both figure and appearance, and sighed:
"Why does my Tongtong look like me? It would be great if she looked like her mother. At least she will be a pretty lady when she grows up."
After hearing this, Xie Yan instinctively looked towards Su Youran, wondering if she would think of that woman again...
He Yuze coughed lightly and touched Shi Lei's arm obscurely. Everyone knew Xie Yan's situation, which was almost the same as a divorced woman raising a child alone. It's best not to mention the word "mother" in front of the child.
Shi Lei then realized that he had said something wrong and rubbed his hair in embarrassment. Lu Fangyou laughed:
"Brother Shi, this is your problem. You are dragging down our Tongtong. Look at Xie Yan, he is so handsome. If this face is completely copied on Ranran's face, it will also be very beautiful."
Shi Yutong's brilliant stroke:
"That's right! Dad is ugly, and that makes me look ugly too!"
"Hahaha……"
Everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing. Su Youran also laughed, as if she wasn't affected by "Mom" at all. Xie Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, ever since Su Youran came to his side, he couldn't help but feel anxious and worried.
Fearing that she won’t be taken care of properly, Ranran thinks it’s better for her to stay with her mother.
The worried little girl doesn't show it on her face but she is still worried about her heartless mother.
What's more, he was afraid that one day the woman would come back to him and ask for the child...
Before a person owns a treasure, he will not think that the treasure is good, but once he owns it, he will be afraid of losing it.
Once you have experienced happiness, you will not want to let go. The life of two people is many times happier than that of one person. Xie Yan could not bear the pain of having and then losing.
so……
Xie Yan's eyes darkened for a moment, as if a calm sea was suddenly hit by huge waves, and then returned to silence in an instant.
However, such silence will only make people more fearful, because when the huge waves rise again, the consequences will be disastrous.
If you leave, don’t show up again. If you give up the treasure, don’t think about owning it again, otherwise he will never let her go!
"Welcome everyone to watch "Dad, Let's Go Traveling". This program is exclusively sponsored by xx..."
Zhang Heng's announcement brought Xie Yan back to his senses. Su Youran leaned against his strong arms and snuggled up to him. Xie Yan gently stroked the top of her head as he listened to Zhang Heng announce today's mission:
"Yesterday was the first day, so the enthusiastic villagers provided a sumptuous dinner. But starting from today, our guests will have to take care of all three meals by themselves. The food in the house can only be used in the morning, and what to eat for lunch...it all depends on what ingredients the fathers and babies can find!"
He flipped open the photo in his hand and showed it to the children:
"Here are some common vegetables. Your task is to borrow these foods from the villagers. Remember, don't miss any of them, otherwise you will have nothing to eat."
Xie Yan raised his eyes:
"Does this mean that the children should act alone?"
The author has something to say:
Oh my god, I originally set it to save the draft and not publish it... I didn’t realize it until more than an hour later (covering my face)
