After more than ten hours of flight, Zhou Yexuan finally returned to Zhou's residence in City A.

He thought a lot along the way, such as whether these sudden memories were real and whether his sudden actions would arouse suspicion.

However, he finally decided that no matter whether everything in the dream was true or not, he would directly stop Zhou Jiayan from recording the variety show.

Although Shen Qingqing during this period of time was different from his dreams, adults could take risks but children could not.

If he really wronged Shen Qingqing, at worst he would compensate her with a big-budget movie or TV series later. Shen Qingqing would probably be happy with that.

However, when he entered the house, he found that the entire mansion was silent, with only the sound of servants cleaning. Where were Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan?

Aunt Chen, the housekeeper, was startled when she saw Zhou Yexuan suddenly come back, and asked hurriedly, "Sir, why did you come back suddenly? You didn't tell me before."

Seeing that it was Aunt Chen, Zhou Yexuan suppressed his impatience and explained, "The work over there ended early, so I had a few days off and wanted to come back to see her." Then, he went straight to the point, "Aunt Chen, where are Yanyan and Shen Qingqing?"

Aunt Chen was a little surprised. "Sir, don't you know? The young master and his wife went to record a variety show. They just left this morning. It seems they went to an ancient town in the northwest called Zhuangyuan Town."

He was one step too late! At that time, he was still on the plane, and the internet was disconnected so he couldn't contact anyone, so naturally he didn't receive the news that Shen Qingqing and the others had left.

However, Zhou Yexuan was always calm. He nodded to the housekeeper and said, "I understand, Aunt Chen."

Then he took out his cell phone, called his assistant Ma Li, and asked the assistant to start booking a flight to Zhuangyuan Town.

In this case, he could only take Zhou Jiayan away from the variety show recording location. Although it was more troublesome than expected and would alarm more people, Zhou Yexuan felt that it was worth it for Zhou Jiayan's safety.

What's more, he believed that he had the ability to clean up the mess.

Shen Qingqing had no idea that the perfect financial sponsor in her mind, Zhou Yexuan, was actually on his way to "catch" her.

If she knew, she would only sigh with regret, what a pity, if he could have intercepted them at Zhou's house earlier, then she wouldn't have to participate in the variety show.

Maybe it was the change of environment, or maybe she went to bed earlier than before, but Shen Qingqing opened her eyes before seven in the morning, and found a little boy sleeping in her arms.

The little boy's breathing was steady and his face was rosy from sleep. He looked very cute and he hadn't woken up yet.

Regarding this situation, Shen Qingqing naturally would not think that she was not honest when she slept. It must be that Zhou Jiayan rolled into her arms while she was asleep last night!

She chuckled in her heart, what a tsundere little boy! If he wanted to be hugged by her to sleep, he should just say so.

She really wanted to laugh at Zhou Jiayan, but then she remembered that Zhou Jiayan was very thin-skinned, so after some hesitation she decided to give up.

Let her sleep if she wants. After all, she is a "good" mother and she is still somewhat tolerant.

Zhou Jiayan, who was still sleeping soundly: ...

Now that she was awake, Shen Qingqing had no intention of staying in bed any longer.

As she moved, Zhou Jiayan gradually woke up. He rubbed his eyes and saw that half of his body was still in Shen Qingqing's arms. His face turned red again.

I actually lay in Shen Qingqing's arms for the whole night!

However, after having gone through so many awkward moments with her stepmother, Zhou Jiayan quickly calmed down and said sweetly, "Good morning."

When Shen Qingqing saw Zhou Jiayan's cute appearance when he just woke up, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that he was such a sweet little boy. Then she did something that she didn't expect.

She approached gently, then kissed Zhou Jiayan on the little face.

The blush on Zhou Jiayan's face, which had already faded, rose again and became even redder, and his whole face looked like a red apple.

His stepmother actually kissed him!

How could she be so unrestrained!

I held him in my arms last night and kissed him again today!

And my stepmother’s lips are so soft and warm, and they seem to feel pretty good.

Zhou Jiayan was stunned for a moment, until Shen Qingqing acted surprised and said, "Oh, I forgot I haven't brushed my teeth yet. Did I kiss Yanyan's little face with saliva? Will it stink? Hahaha, you used your stinky sweat to stink me before."

Zhou Jiayan woke up instantly, reached out his hand to wipe the non-existent saliva, and then realized that he had been deceived again.

Damn it, teasing him again!

The two of them were so noisy that they lost the last bit of sleepiness they had, and Zhou Jiayan also forgot about his original intention of accusing Shen Qingqing of not sleeping well.

Then they both got out of bed and started washing up.

Then Shen Qingqing took out the parent-child outfit that she had prepared long ago. It was two yellow outdoor sportswear, one large and one small, of similar style, both printed with monster patterns.

After Zhou Jiayan finished washing up, Shen Qingqing put new clothes on him. Zhou Jiayan was a little resistant at first, but when he thought that if they went out like this, others would know that they were mother and son, he started to feel shy again.

So in the end, little Zhou Jiayan reluctantly put on the parent-child outfit.

Then Shen Qingqing lifted the black cloth covering the live camera. At this time, many loyal fans were already waiting in the live broadcast room.

[Wow, today they are both wearing mother-and-child outfits. ]

【One is beautiful, the other is cute. 】

[Although I know they are not related by blood, the more I look at them, the more they look like mother and son. ]

[Perhaps all beautiful people are similar, but all ugly people are ugly in different ways.]

The program crew's breakfast rule is between seven and eight o'clock, and it was seven-fifteen when Shen Qingqing left the bedroom.

She thought they were still early, so when she went out and into the yard, she saw Shen Linyan and Liang Tianyi, mother and son, coming back from outside the yard wearing sportswear with a light layer of sweat on their heads.

It was obvious that they were returning from a morning run.

Shen Qingqing couldn't help but sigh in her heart, what a lucky thing! Fortunately, she didn't listen to the system's trick to compete with Shen Linyan to be a good wife and mother. Getting up so early to exercise would really cost her life.

The life of such a "lady" is even more miserable than the 996 working hours of a corporate slave.

Then she lowered her head and looked at Zhou Jiayan with a "you earned it" look.

Boy, do you know that you almost have to work harder than Brother Tianyi?

Zhou Jiayan had no idea what his stepmother was thinking. When he saw his little friend appear, he happily went to greet him. Then the two of them went to the living room hand in hand to have breakfast.

Only Shen Qingqing and Shen Linyan were left in the yard.

Shen Linyan suffered a loss yesterday and was determined to get back at her.

So she smiled and said, "Qingqing, I just came back from running with Xiaoyi. I feel refreshed, and the scenery on the road is very nice. I think you can also take Yanyan for a run in the morning. I watched your live broadcast before, and you always slept until almost nine o'clock before getting up. Although this is very comfortable, it is not good for your health in the long run. I was also very uncomfortable when I first started running, but gradually I realized the fun of running..."

As soon as Shen Linyan said this, many viewers in the live broadcast room began to support her.

[I really admire Lin Yan for getting up at six o'clock every day. If I had this kind of self-control, how could I be a fat man? ]

[Yes, I envy her self-control. Shen Linyan really deserves to be famous. Her reputation is not bad.]

[I got up late and only saw the second half of their run. The scenery along the way was indeed beautiful.]

[Lin Yan is so kind. Is Shen Qingqing someone who would go jogging? It’s good enough that she can get up on time.]

[Lin Yan, stop meddling in other people's business. How could Shen Qingqing possibly listen to you?]

…

Shen Linyan looked at Shen Qingqing leisurely, having already thought about what to say next.

Didn't Shen Qingqing want to establish a "free-spirited" persona? Then she should reject herself, and then she could stand on the high ground and say that she didn't set a good example for her children.

If she agreed, she would wait for Shen Qingqing to run together tomorrow. Based on her understanding of Shen Qingqing, a rich girl who almost never exercised would probably lose her temper and collapse halfway through the run. This gave her room to maneuver.

It was naturally impossible for Shen Qingqing to go jogging. She knew Shen Linyan's thoughts very well. She found it a little funny. It was really because her original self was too naive that gave Shen Linyan such confidence. She could use such despicable means again and again.

She smoothed her hair, looking lazy, and said, "I think compared to exercise, people should get enough sleep first, especially children who are growing up. Eight hours is the right amount. After tossing and turning all night last night, everyone fell asleep at almost 11 o'clock. I think it's just right to get up at seven this morning, eight hours is no more, no less. Of course, Sister Lin Yan, I know some people are naturally energetic and don't sleep much, I think you should be like this. But Yanyan and I are ordinary people, we still need to get eight hours of sleep."

The words Shen Linyan had already prepared were instantly stuck in her throat. This Shen Qingqing actually found another way to confront her by using the length of sleep!

She and Liang Tianyi didn't go to bed until almost twelve o'clock last night. When she woke Liang Tianyi up in the morning, he looked sleepy.

She was originally thinking of letting him sleep in today, but then she changed her mind and thought that going out for a run on the first day would better demonstrate their self-discipline, so she hardened her heart and called Liang Tianyi up.

Shen Qingqing's words made her feel guilty. She smiled awkwardly and said, "It's not that I'm naturally energetic. I just feel that I can't ruin the habits I've developed because of a small thing."

Knowing that she would be in the wrong if she really looked into it, Shen Linyan decided to quickly pass on the matter, "It's getting late, let's go in and have breakfast. The director said we'll gather at 8:30."

As she spoke, she went ahead and headed towards the central hall.

Shen Qingqing felt a little amused when she saw Shen Linyan fleeing in panic. She was too cowardly. She was still waiting for her to fight for three hundred rounds.

Of course she also wanted to have breakfast, so she went to the main room one after another.

At this time, today's breakfast has been laid out on the big table in the main hall, with porridge, steamed buns, dumplings, eggs and so on. Although it cannot compare with the breakfast in a five-star hotel, it is still rich and looks very clean.

Cui Xia and her daughter, Mo Man and her daughter have already arrived. The two little girls have developed good self-care abilities, so the adults only need to look after them from time to time.

As for Zhou Jiayan and Liang Tianyi, they were eating with gusto, but Liang Tianyi didn't look very energetic and looked a little listless.

Zhou Jiayan discovered this fact faster than Shen Qingqing. He was very concerned about his friend's condition and asked, "Xiaoyi, why do you look a little unwell? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Liang Tianyi nodded, then shook his head, "I didn't sleep well, but I'm not used to my bed. I didn't go to bed until 12 o'clock last night, but my mother woke me up at 6 o'clock in the morning to run, so I'm a little sleepy."

The children did not lower their voices when speaking, so everyone in the room could hear them, and Shen Linyan's face changed immediately.

As for Shen Qingqing, although she knew that Zhou Jiayan had no idea about her conversation with Shen Linyan and had no bad intentions, she really wanted to hug Zhou Jiayan and give him a couple of kisses.

He is truly her great son, and he is very close to her!

The audience in the live broadcast room obviously also saw this scene.

[Uh... I take back what I said about Shen Linyan's self-discipline. Xiaoyi obviously didn't get enough rest.]

[I can understand parents being strict, but the premise is to ensure that their children get enough sleep. ]

[They went to bed at 12 o'clock last night and woke up at 6 o'clock in the morning. Not to mention the adults, this is obviously not enough for Xiaoyi, a five-year-old child.]

[And if you don’t sleep well, you won’t have the energy to study. ]

[Oh my god, I remember when I was in high school, I went to bed at 1am and got up at 6am to attend school. I looked very hardworking, but I was drowsy when I got to the classroom. The most important thing was that the lack of sleep affected my height and I became a short person.]

[It's so miserable upstairs. 】

[Shen Linyan is really overdoing it. I was thinking last night that after a long day of traveling to record the show, Shen Linyan asked Liang Tianyi to study at night. I thought that he wouldn't be able to learn anything in such a short time. Maybe she did it on purpose for the audience to see.]

Seeing so many people starting to criticize Shen Linyan, Shen Linyan’s internet army immediately took action.

[Some people go too far. Doesn't Shen Linyan also want her children to maintain good habits? ]

[Yes, it was only this day that I didn't take Liang Tianyi's sleep into consideration. It sounds like I didn't care about Liang Tianyi's health.]

[It’s better than some people just giving up and not caring about their children. ]

However, after these few days of development, Shen Qingqing already has some real fans, although most of them are attracted by her beauty and Zhou Jiayan.

They soon realized the green tea implication in the words of the water army. In addition, since it was indeed Shen Linyan who failed this time, passers-by also began to rebel, so many people stood up to refute.

[Why do some fans speak like green tea fans? How can they whitewash their own fans while also dragging down others? ]

[Is it okay for us to blame the matter instead of the person? Who did something wrong today? ]

[From what I've observed over the past few days, Shen Linyan is a very pushy person. Although she doesn't say harsh words, Liang Tianyi has never disobeyed her once.]

[Stop exaggerating. We don’t really know how Shen Linyan takes care of her children, but those who exaggerate seem to know.]

Seeing that more and more people were rebelling in the comments, Shen Linyan's marketing team far away in City A also panicked.

A young man in his early twenties looked at the older man nervously, "Brother, what should we do? We can't control this trend for a while. If we keep fighting back like this, I think those netizens will become even more rebellious."

The older man also had a serious look on his face. After thinking for a while, he said, "Forget it, let's not worry about it for now. This is her own fault. We are not gods. Netizens have a seven-second memory. They will find the next hot spot soon. We can just lead the pace and brush over it."

After saying that, he took a deep puff of his cigarette and sighed in his heart, it is really not easy to make money from this Miss Shen. Not only do you have to help her lead the public and maintain a good image, but you also have to help her step on others.

At this time, Shen Linyan had seen a lot of storms, so she quickly calmed down and knew that this was not the time for a head-on confrontation.

She walked up to Liang Tianyi and acted as if she was guilty. "Xiaoyi, it was my carelessness today that I didn't notice that you didn't get enough sleep. I promise I won't do that again in the future. If you still feel sleepy in the future, remember to tell me."

Liang Tianyi was a little confused when he heard Shen Linyan's words. He clearly remembered that he told Shen Linyan this morning that he was very sleepy and wanted to sleep a little longer, but his mother told him that persistence was more important and he should not give up halfway.

But he was an obedient child after all, and he was close to Shen Linyan from the bottom of his heart, so he nodded and said, "Okay, Mom, I understand."

Shen Linyan smiled with satisfaction when she saw this, then leaned over and hugged Liang Tianyi, creating a scene of loving mother and filial son.

When the navy saw this scene, they seized the opportunity to go out again.

[Wow, so touching. Lin Yan is such a good mother. She corrects her mistakes as soon as she knows them.]

【Xiaoyi is also very cute, the two of them are so harmonious. 】

[Some people should stop holding on to them. Lin Yan has already apologized.]

Shen Linyan is quite popular among the public, and she doesn't have many die-hard haters. Even with the massive whitewashing by the internet army and fans, there are naturally no idle bystanders who will continue to criticize her.

This page has been turned.

Shen Qingqing didn't expect to make Shen Linyan fail just this time, but she still admired Shen Linyan's adaptability. If she had used her energy in building her career, she might have made a name for herself. It was a pity that she had used all her energy to build up her personal image and win the love of others.

Of course, this was not something Shen Qingqing was worried about. After watching the show, she started to eat breakfast.

When she had almost finished eating, Xie Bing brought the little fat boy into the main room.

At this moment, she had a look of disgust on her face. The fat boy's clothes were not tidy in some places and his hair was a little messy.

After entering the room, Xie Bing couldn't help but complain, "I really doubt whether he is my son. I have never stayed in bed since I was a child, and his father also gets up on time. But what a guy, today I called him at 7 o'clock, but he didn't get up until 7:40. In the end, it was only when I told him that breakfast would be taken away soon that he got up reluctantly."

The visuals were so vivid that everyone in the room burst into laughter.

Shen Qingqing looked at Xie Bing, then at Ao Liangjun. Although the little fat boy was fat, it could be seen that his facial features were 90% like Xie Bing.

She mourned for Xie Bing in her heart for three seconds. There was no doubt that she was his biological daughter!

At exactly eight o'clock, when everyone finished their breakfast, director Xu Xiang came to the crowd with a loudspeaker.

He smiled brightly and said to everyone, "Today we will officially start our trip in Zhuangyuan Town. Our main purpose is to combine education with entertainment. Although Zhuangyuan Town is famous for its students who pass the imperial examinations, the students here are also well-rounded and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. So our first day's task today is painting!"

After Xu Xiang finished his announcement, he led the guests to a relatively large new Chinese-style building with white walls and black tiles. Although it was a newly built building, it was very organically integrated with the surrounding area. It was said to be the cultural and exhibition center of Zhuangyuan Town.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw various paintings hanging in the hall on the first floor. Some of them were obviously painted by experienced painters, while others were children's exercises.

Both have their own highlights. Children's paintings use rich and bold colors and are full of imagination, while paintings by mature painters are full of thoughts about life.

Director Xu Xiang led everyone on a tour first, and the guests all listened attentively.

In particular, Shen Linyan would discuss with Xu Xiang from time to time, and whisper additional explanations to Liang Tianyi.

Seeing this, another wave of praise started in the live broadcast room.

[Sure enough, Lin Yan really has a profound artistic accomplishment. ]

【It is different from the nine-leaky fish in the circle. 】

[What a high-quality idol. Nothing will go wrong with her doing this. 】

【Can you please learn more about some things that have no ideological content? 】

As for Shen Qingqing, she had no interest in art other than acting in her two lifetimes. The only thing she was interested in was probably reading girls' comics? She actually learned a little bit of that.

Zhou Jiayan, however, watched and listened very seriously, nodding his little head from time to time.

Shen Qingqing thought back to Zhou Jiayan's classes. He had learned painting before, of course, but he didn't make it a focus. He only took the most basic sketching course in one class per week.

About half an hour later, Xu Xiang finally finished the tour with everyone and then began to announce today's official competition rules.

"I believe everyone has already experienced the profound artistic atmosphere of our Zhuangyuan Town. Now it's time for us to paint. Upstairs is the painter's studio. We have borrowed the space for one day. We have complete painting tools. Today, you mothers and children need to work together to complete a painting according to our instructions."

"The content of your paintings should show the mountains, water, Zhuangyuan Town and yourself."

"We will invite 10 children and 10 local residents to vote, and your votes will determine your dinner tonight. Let's get started without further ado."

Hearing that dinner was involved, the guests became serious. After all, everyone knew that the perverted program crew would not really let the guests starve, but they would let the last person eat a steamed bun.

Therefore, everyone did not delay and went upstairs to the painting studio.

At this time, the staff of the program team had already prepared the easels and painting tools. Shen Qingqing took a look and saw that there were pencils, crayons, oil brushes, paints, watercolor pens and even rice paper.

Shen Qingqing thought to herself, this production crew really overestimated her. Does she look like she can paint oil paintings?

But it’s just drawing, who can’t add a few strokes?

At this time, Shen Linyan smiled warmly. She said to everyone, "To be honest, I have learned sketching and Chinese painting since I was a child. Although I have never studied oil painting seriously, there are some similarities between them. If you need help, you can come to me. Xiaoyi has also learned painting for two years, so he can also help you children."

Everyone answered yes.

Among the five groups of guests, in addition to Shen Linyan, Cui Xia from the amateur group also has a certain foundation in painting. After all, she is a TV director and has drawn storyboards before. At this time, she also shyly said, "I also have some painting foundation, although I am more good at line drawings. If you have any questions, you can also ask me."

As for Xie Bing and Mo Man, both of them were actors and had never developed any related hobbies such as art. They were at a loss at this time.

Xie Bing looked at the tools in front of him and sighed, "I have come across these things before when I was in elementary school. As for Ao Liangjun, he simply can't sit still, so his father and I never planned to let him learn these things."

Finally, she spread her hands and said, "But I've figured it out. Junjun is already so fat anyway, so I'll just eat less tonight and lose weight."

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone laughed. Only the fat boy Ao Liangjun was not convinced and said, "I am not fat at all! How can you not let me eat?"

Xie Bing rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you want to eat it, then just work hard to draw it yourself, okay?"

As for Mo Man, compared to the result of the painting competition, she was more worried about her baby daughter's skirt.

The little girl chose a pure white princess dress for beauty. Mo Man looked at the paint on the ground and felt very worried. She felt that after painting today, the little girl's dress should be scrapped.

Looking at the different conditions of the five groups of guests in front of them, the audience in the live broadcast room also began to express their own speculations and opinions.

[Bet on Apple, Shen Linyan and Liang Tianyi are likely to win today, they are both extremely reliable at first glance. ]

[I think so too.]

[Choi Ha's group is also possible, after all, she seems to have a good foundation. ]

[I don't think so. Have you forgotten that the judges are children and ordinary residents? They may not understand something that is too professional.]

[Does the upstairs person look down on the children? ]

…

Amid the debate, everyone started today's painting task with their own thoughts, and Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan naturally started as well.

Looking at the white paper on the easel, both of them were at a loss for a moment.

In the end, it was Zhou Jiayan who spoke first, "Why don't we just draw first? Even though it may not be very good, it's better than handing in a blank paper."

However, Shen Qingqing shook her head. "Did you see the paper on the drawing board? We only have one. If the drawing is ruined, we can just stop it. Don't worry. Think it over before drawing again."

Zhou Jiayan had to admit that what his stepmother said made sense and nodded.

Shen Qingqing looked around and found that Shen Linyan and the others had already started writing, and the way she and Liang Tianyi held the pens was very professional.

Shen Qingqing knew very well that if she seriously competed with Shen Linyan to see who could draw better, she would definitely lose.

This competition also existed in the original novel, and the original author and his friends even came in last place. In the end, the production team impartially gave the original author and Zhou Jiayan a steamed bun each for dinner.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingqing felt that she still had to think of a way to outsmart him. If she won, it would be nice to kill Shen Linyan's prestige.

At the same time, Shen Linyan was full of confidence. Painting competition was not like other competitions. It was not something that could be accomplished quickly in a few days. She didn't believe that Shen Qingqing could surpass her this time.

Thinking of this, she smiled more gently, lowered her head and said to Liang Tianyi, "Xiaoyi, don't worry, we have enough time, just paint slowly and treat it as a daily painting practice."

Liang Tianyi nodded, “Okay, mom, I will calm down.”

Seeing this scene, the audience in the live broadcast room praised it again.

[Lin Yan is such an open-minded mother. She even told Xiao Yi not to treat this as a competition. She doesn't care about gains and losses as much as other parents.]

[So gentle, it must be a blessing to have such a mother. ]

[Shen Linyan is so confident because she has the ability. Look at the person next to her, she is not in a hurry and hasn't started writing for half an hour. But it's obvious that she is just giving up.]

Netizens all knew who the comment was referring to. Although many of Shen Qingqing's fans felt that the netizen was being sarcastic, they did not dare to refute.

Because half an hour had passed and Shen Qingqing and the others hadn't made a single move. Considering Shen Qingqing's previous painting style, maybe she had really given up.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Shen Qingqing finally moved. She looked at Zhou Jiayan and asked in a low voice, "What is the favorite anime among children now? Besides Ultraman!"

Just as Zhou Jiayan was about to blurt out the word Ultraman, he was stopped by his stepmother. He pouted, a little unhappy, but his little head was consciously thinking about the problem of his stepmother.

After about a minute, he answered uncertainly, "Peppa Pig? I see a lot of kids in our kindergarten like it. Many of their school bags and shoes are designed in the shape of Peppa Pig, but I don't like it. It's too childish."

At the end, he added, "I think Ultraman is the best, but if that doesn't work, the Monkey King is also good."

Shen Qingqing was a little speechless. How could she drag someone down when answering a question?

She pinched Zhou Jiayan's little face, then took out her cell phone and started searching for "Peppa Pig". When she saw the picture, her eyes lit up.

Hey! Not bad, the style is simple, just right for them.

At the same time, Zhou Yexuan, who rushed to "Zhuangyuan Town" overnight, finally arrived at the gate of Zhuangyuan Town.

At this time, the mayor of Zhuangyuan Town was already waiting at the town gate.

First, a national variety show came here to shoot a program, and then such a big boss suddenly came. The mayor of Zhuangyuan Town was also a little excited. Could it be that their Zhuangyuan Town is really about to go abroad and rush into the world?

Thinking of this, he smiled and said to Zhou Yexuan, "Mr. Zhou, it is a great honor for us to come to our Zhuangyuan Town. Do you want to rest first or go sightseeing? I can show you the way."

Zhou Yexuan didn't need to answer, as his assistant Ma Li explained, "It's like this, our CEO Zhou's wife and children are participating in the recording of "Almighty Mom" ​​here. CEO Zhou hasn't been back to see his family for two months, and he just happened to be on vacation, so he came to see them. I wonder if you, the mayor, know where they are recording?"

The mayor suddenly realized that he was here to look for his wife and children. He didn't expect that such a big boss like Mr. Zhou could be such a good man who cares about his family! And Mr. Zhou is still so young and handsome. He is really a role model for men.

For a moment, he looked at Zhou Yexuan with even more admiration.

The filming and recording of the program had been reported in advance, and the mayor knew about it. He nodded and said to Zhou Yexuan, "They are recording at the Cultural Center now. If Mr. Zhou doesn't mind, I'll take you there."

After hearing the mayor's words, Zhou Yexuan finally felt relieved. He finally found the person and was not a step too late.

He smiled warmly and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Mayor, to lead the way."

Shen Qingqing roughly read the plot synopsis and character introductions of Peppa Pig, and had a general idea in her mind.

She lowered her head and showed the picture on her phone to Zhou Jiayan, "Did you see it? Today we are going to draw Peppa Pig's family. Of course, since you are a boy, you can only be Peppa's brother George."

As she spoke, Shen Qingqing picked up a pencil and began to sketch on the drawing paper.

Zhou Jiayan was stunned for a long while. Although he still didn't quite understand his stepmother's intention, he still obediently cooperated and started painting.

Looking at this scene in front of them, the audience in the live broadcast room were stunned!

[What are they doing? Aren’t they talking about drawing the ancient town, the river, and themselves? Why are they starting to draw cartoon characters? ]

[Besides, isn’t Peppa Pig something that children like? The style of the painting is so childish. ]

[Are you just going to give up and hand in a random drawing? 】

[Not bad, there is progress. I thought they would just hand in a blank paper.]

However, some viewers guessed Shen Qingqing's intention in advance.

[Did you notice that there are many children among the judges this time? I guess Shen Qingqing is trying to get votes from children.]

【It seems like kids nowadays like Peppa Pig very much. 】

However, many netizens expressed disbelief about the speculation.

[Don't overestimate Shen Qingqing's IQ. ]

[Don’t underestimate the intelligence of children. Will they really vote for Shen Qingqing just because she drew a cartoon character they like? ]

[And even if they really voted, would their words be consistent with the purpose of the mission? ]

Amidst the debate, Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan continued to paint their "masterpiece".

Although the drawing style of "Peppa Pig" is simple, it is not so easy for the two people with weak basics. For example, it is not easy to draw an oval head into a circle.

Fortunately, after some revisions, Shen Qingqing and her team finally completed the line drawing and started the next step of coloring.

Shen Qingqing picked up the paint and squeezed it onto the palette, then said to Zhou Jiayan, "The pig's skin is pink. As for clothes, we are all wearing yellow today, so you paint my skirt yellow. As for you, paint your clothes yellow, and finally we'll add a few monster patterns. You should be able to tell what color the house, trees, and river behind are, right?"

Zhou Jiayan nodded, indicating that he understood.

So the mother and son began to divide the work and color it. It must be said that coloring is much more interesting than line drawing. Shen Qingqing slowly found some meaning in the coloring, and she also thought that after the variety show was over, she could lie down and take a drawing board to draw when she went out for a trip. It was really cool to think about it this way.

Because their painting style is simple, it takes far less time than Shen Linyan and the others, so Shen Qingqing began to slack off easily again.

She turned her head to look at Zhou Jiayan who was painting the sky beside her. The child looked serious and very serious. From the side, his eyelashes were also very curled, and his little face was like a peeled egg in the sun.

You know what, this serious look is quite cute.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingqing stretched out her hand to pinch the child's little face, but Zhou Jiayan just picked up the pen at this time, so when the two touched each other, the pen covered with paint poked directly into Shen Qingqing's arm, and a long line of blue paint appeared on her sleeve.

Shen Qingqing's face immediately turned green. She deeply suspected that Zhou Jiayan did it on purpose to retaliate against her for kissing him in the morning. Otherwise, how could they run into each other by such a coincidence!

At this time, Zhou Jiayan also discovered that he seemed to have smeared paint on Shen Qingqing. He opened his mouth in surprise and explained in a low voice, "I didn't mean to..."

However, Shen Qingqing didn't want to care whether he did it on purpose or not. She just wanted to "retaliate" back. She picked up the paintbrush and painted on Zhou Jiayan's face very "quickly, accurately and ruthlessly". Then half of Zhou Jiayan's face was immediately covered with red paint, turning him into a little cat.

Zhou Jiayan looked shocked. He didn't expect his stepmother to throw paint on his face without even saying hello. He clearly explained that she didn't mean it!

He also got angry and decided not to reason with his stepmother anymore, so he picked up the paintbrush and started poking Shen Qingqing.

But he was small after all, with short arms and legs, so he was no match for Shen Qingqing. Therefore, he had much more paint on his body than Shen Qingqing.

But they still remembered that they were in a competition, so they remembered to avoid the paintings on the easels.

The audience in the live broadcast room who saw this scene were stunned.

[Can anyone tell me why it suddenly developed into this state? 】

【Although it was indeed Zhou Jiayan who started it first, I believe he didn't do it on purpose. Is Shen Qingqing only three years old? He actually retaliated by picking a fight with the child. 】

【I suspect that she may not even be three years old, otherwise she would not do such a thing as killing each other. 】

[I'm really laughing like crazy. Both of us are in a very embarrassed state now. The mother-child outfits we changed into in the morning were already scrapped before the afternoon. 】

Xu Xiang also noticed the commotion between Shen Qingqing and the others. On the one hand, he was happy that this edit would be another big hit in the show, but on the other hand, he couldn't bear to watch it. So when he felt that the edited material was almost enough, he asked the staff to come and persuade the two of them to reconcile.

The mother and son poked at each other for half a minute, and realized that if they continued like this, they would hurt each other, so they put down their paintbrushes under the persuasion of the staff.

After stopping, Zhou Jiayan realized that his clothes and face were all covered in paint, and he was in a miserable state.

For a moment, the self-esteemed child could no longer hold back and shouted at Shen Qingqing, "I'm still a child, but you are already a mature adult! Why can't you just let me go a little bit?"

When Zhou Jiayan cried, the hearts of the audience in the live broadcast room were almost broken.

[Shen Qingqing, you are a mother! Come on, give in and apologize. 】

[Yes, Shen Qingqing is an adult, how can he argue with a five-year-old child. 】

[Zhou Jiayan even cried. He looked so pitiful. I, an Internet cloud mother, felt distressed. 】

Most adults would choose to step back when they see a child crying like this, but Shen Qingqing is not a typical adult.

In her mind, she did not regard Zhou Jiayan as a little kid who didn't understand anything, nor did she put herself in a position to guide the child on what to do.

What's more, Shen Qingqing felt that Zhou Jiayan's paint was all over his body, and his condition wasn't much better! It was Zhou Jiayan who made the "first" move. How could a villain sue her first and say that she was an adult and didn't let the child go?

And can a child like Zhou Jiayan cry? Come on, she's a girl! Shen Qingqing never felt ashamed of "crying", and tears were often a woman's weapon.

She looked at Zhou Jiayan, curled her lips, and started to cry, "It's my first time to be your mother! Why should I let you!"

Hearing Shen Qingqing's words, everyone was instantly petrified. Why would a mother who looked very mature say such words?

Zhou Jiayan also stopped crying under the shock of these words and froze in place with his mouth open.

In fact, he didn't particularly want to cry, but he knew that children's tears were the best way to deal with adults. After crying in front of the camera before, Zhou Jiayan also figured out that "crying" was not an unmanly behavior.

And now he wanted to "win" his stepmother even more. He thought of his stepmother's apology to him last night after he was angry and sad. If he cried again, her stepmother would probably bow to him, right?

However, he didn't expect that his stepmother would use the same trick and start "crying", and his little brain couldn't figure out why his stepmother could say such a thing!

Just when Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan were staring at each other, there was a commotion at the entrance of the studio.

Shen Qingqing and Zhou Jiayan also followed the call and saw a middle-aged man leading several people in black suits into the studio door.

The man in a black suit walking at the front had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, deep facial features, and a tall figure. The aura emanating from his body was so powerful that people unconsciously wanted to avoid him.

After Shen Qingqing saw the face of the visitor clearly, she couldn't help but feel shocked. Could this person not be her cheap husband Zhou Yexuan?

Why did he suddenly appear here? !
