Chapter 17



The twists and turns of the "cooking battle" finally came to an end, leaving the guests relieved.

Only Su Jin seemed to be isolated from the whole world.

After returning to the cabin, Su Jin looked around and did not find any equipment for playing games in the quaint room. He could not help but let out a soft "tsk" and leaned back on the sofa.

The moonlight passed through the French windows and fell lightly on the floor, as if covered with a layer of gauze. The young man on the sofa lowered his eyebrows slightly, as if a little lost.

After taking a shower, Tao Tao was walking through the living room on her way back to her room when she saw this scene.

Seeing this scene, Tao Tao tilted her head in some distress, and soon she "suddenly realized" the reason why Su Jin looked like this.

My brother must be sad because the food he cooked was not tasty.

In the heart of little Taotie, the sadness of not being able to cook delicious food is second only to not being able to eat delicious food.

When Su Jin was daydreaming, a small hand covered with moisture suddenly gently covered his cheeks, followed by a milky peach fragrance.

"Brother, are you unhappy?"

Su Jin raised his eyes slightly and saw Tao Tao standing in front of him, looking at him with her little face raised.

Seeing that Su Jin didn't say anything, Tao Tao became more certain of her guess.

"It's okay..." Tao Tao tried to comfort Su Jin, "Cooking skills can be improved. As long as you work hard, your food will definitely become more and more delicious."

"Even if my brother's cooking isn't tasty, Tao Tao still likes him~"

The little girl in peach pink bunny pajamas, with her soft little face raised, comforts you in a baby voice.

This scene instantly melted the hearts of the audience in the live broadcast room.

[Oh my god, Taotao is so sweet~ How can there be such a cute and caring little baby (heart)]

[(Holding her face) Taotao in her peach pink pajamas really looks like a cute little bunny.]

[Look, this Taotao is so cute, let me steal her away quietly (quietly——quietly——)]

[Shh—You were too loud earlier. Please—be—so—soft—speak—]

Hearing Tao Tao trying so hard to comfort himself, Su Jin quickly realized that Tao Tao seemed to have misunderstood something.

Seeing the cub's worried look, Su Jin couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Su Jin raised his hand in a good mood and rubbed Tao Tao's little head: "I'm not unhappy, but thank you Tao Tao for your comfort."

Hearing Su Jin's words, Tao Tao blinked in confusion.

Not unhappy?

But thank you Taotao?

This description made Tao Tao, who was not very familiar with the transition relationship, frown in confusion.

Su Jin swept away his previous boredom, picked up the limp Taotao, and carried her into the room.

Su Jin put Tao Tao on the bed, twisted the corner of the quilt for her, and said softly, "Good night."

"Good night, brother~"

Taotao curled up on the soft pillow and closed her eyes obediently under Su Jin's gaze. The little ball seemed to be stuck in the quilt, and the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.

[Good night, Taotao~]

[Shh—everyone, keep your voices down. Don’t disturb Taotao’s sleep.]

[See you tomorrow, Taotao~]

After Su Jin left the room, Tao Tao, who had just closed her eyes, slowly began to move.

She first quietly opened one eye and glanced at the bedside. After making sure that there was no one around, she finally plucked up the courage to slowly open her eyes.

After making sure that Su Jin had left the room, Tao Tao finally jumped off the bed with confidence.

The audience, who thought Tao Tao had fallen asleep and were about to exit the live broadcast room, were caught off guard by this set of actions.

[Wait! Isn’t Taotao asleep?]

[??? Were you just pretending to be asleep? (stunned)]

[Hey? Where are you going, Taotao?]

Amidst the audience's astonishment, Tao Tao tiptoed to Feng Jiayan's bedside and gently called out, "Jia Jia, are you asleep?"

The system was shocked by Tao Tao's bold move.

You know, in the plot, the villain Feng Jiayan has a hard time falling asleep for some reason, and even if he does fall asleep, he wakes up easily. So since he was a child, what Feng Jiayan hates most is someone waking him up.

Seeing Tao Tao running directly to Feng Jiayan's bed and calling him, the system took a breath and couldn't help getting excited.

Generally speaking, the lower the favorability of the key characters in the plot towards the cannon fodder female supporting character, the higher the completion rate of the mission will be.

The villain is also a key figure in the plot.

If we can reduce the villain Feng Jiayan's favorability towards Tao Tao, there is a high probability that we can promote the completion of the mission!

Feng Jiayan, who was lying flat on the bed, took off his blindfold and sat up after hearing Tao Tao's voice.

"I didn't sleep, what's wrong?"

After Feng Jiayan sat up, the system immediately became excited.

Now, Feng Jiayan's favorability towards Tao Tao has definitely decreased! This means that the completion rate of the task will also increase!

But the next second, when the system detected the favorability, it froze.

How could that be?

Why hasn't Feng Jiayan's favorability towards Tao Tao changed at all!

But at the same time, the degree of mission completion has not decreased.

Just when the system fell into autism because of this result.

On the other side, Tao Tao had already explained her concerns to Feng Jiayan.

"You mean to say that you think your brother's self-esteem has been hurt because his cooking is not good?"

Tao Tao nodded vigorously and sighed softly: "Although my brother pretends to be happy in front of me, I don't think he is really happy."

Feng Jiayan thought about Su Jin's performance during the "cooking battle" in the evening, but he really couldn't remember when Su Jin became unhappy.

"So, I want to help my brother regain his self-esteem and make him happy again."

Tao Tao looked at Feng Jiayan with sparkling eyes: "Jia Jia, you will help me, right?"

Facing Tao Tao's expectant eyes, Feng Jiayan was silent for a moment and nodded.

Seeing Feng Jiayan nod, Tao Tao smiled with two dimples: "I knew it, Jiajia, you are the best~"

Hearing this, Feng Jiayan's face turned cool, but his ears turned slightly red.

"But have you figured out a solution?"

When Tao Tao heard this question, she was subconsciously stunned. On her fair and tender little face, the word "confused" was written on the left side of her face, and the word "dull" was written on the right side of her face.

Seeing Tao Tao's expected reaction, Feng Jiayan took out his hidden mobile phone from under the pillow and said: "Let's find some inspiration."

Just as Feng Jiayan and Su Jin were looking for inspiration together, they suddenly came across a video clip.

The clip is a rare black history in Su Jin's acting career. In an early comic-adapted TV series, Su Jin faced the screen with a cool and awesome BKING smile and recited the classic line:

"Do you believe in the power of light?"

The next second, under the gaze of two pairs of eyes, Su Jin in the picture started a gorgeous transformation with 5-cent special effects.

At the same time, the classic BGM that has been engraved into the bones of a generation of children sounded in the background——

The Power of Light

In the dazzling light effects, Tao Tao's mouth gradually turned into an "O" shape.

She knows how to help her brother build self-confidence!

***

Early the next morning, the morning light parted the sky and cast the daylight onto the ground.

Five groups of guests received a message from the program team and gathered at the venue where the "Cooking Battle" was held yesterday.

Tao Tao was particularly excited today. On the way to the venue, she was skipping and jumping all the way as she walked in front.

After arriving at the venue, Tao Tao's eyes lit up when she saw other children. She pulled Feng Jiayan and gathered with the other children.

Five little heads gathered together and whispered, and Gong Rao looked at them.

What "big thing" is being discussed?

Out of curiosity, Gong Rao moved slightly, approached the corner where the five little heads gathered, and pricked up her ears.

Listening to the discussion of several children, Gong Rao couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, glanced in the direction of Su Jin, and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

The live broadcast room had just opened at this time and there were not many people in the room.

Only a small number of viewers noticed the look Gong Rao gave Su Jin.

[Am I the only one curious about what the kids are discussing?]

[It feels like Gong Rao knows something. Did she glance at Su Jin just now?]

[Huh? Maybe it's just a coincidence?]

After the live broadcast began, the host stood in front of the guests and said: "Before breakfast today, we have to fulfill the punishment for yesterday's 'Cooking Battle'. Parent Su Jin, please lead the children in morning exercises."

As soon as the host finished speaking, a small hand was raised high.

In the sunlight, Tao Tao's eyes sparkled, and her soft little face flushed slightly. "Host brother, can we choose the morning exercises we want?"

The host was surprised for a moment by this sudden question, turned to look at Su Jin, and found that he was also full of surprise.

Coming back to his senses, the host smiled and nodded to Tao Tao: "Okay, but you have to get the consent of the other children."

"It's okay." Gu Shanshan was the first to respond.

"I agree." Cao Haoyu was not willing to be outdone and was the second to reply.

Meng Liu smiled shyly: "I'll listen to Taotao."

Feng Jiayan nodded coolly: "I have no problem."

"So, what morning exercises do you want Brother Su Jin to take you to do?"

Looking at Tao Tao's excited expression, Su Jin suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

The next second, Tao Tao spoke expectantly, recounting the morning exercises she had carefully prepared to help Su Jin build his confidence: "We want Brother Su Jin to lead us in dancing 'The Power of Light.'"

Su Jin: ???

What?
