Chapter 9



Seeing that Feng Jiayan took away all the firepower of Gu Shanshan and Cao Haoyu with just one sentence, the system was stunned.

[As expected of a future villain! Even at such a young age, he's already incredibly capable of drawing hatred!]

This small-scale "battle" was eventually completely extinguished by the host.

At the host's signal, Gu Shanshan pouted and Cao Haoyu looked unhappy. They separated from Tao Tao and sat down with their intern parents again.

Tao Tao sat back in her seat obediently, still a little confused.

When Su Jin lowered his head, he saw the petite girl sitting on the seat. She frowned, tilted her head, and even the dimples at the corners of her mouth showed some confusion.

Su Jin couldn't help but raise his hand and gently poked Tao Tao's dimple.

Tsk, it feels just as good as I imagined.

Tao Tao, whose dimples were poked, raised her head and asked in confusion, "Why do Shanshan and Xiaoyuer both want to sit with me?"

"Of course it's because they like Taotao."

Su Jin could see that although it was the first time they met, Tao Tao had unknowingly become the focus of attention of the other children.

Like Taotao?

Tao Tao was even more confused.

"But... they are all very powerful..."

Tao Tao stretched out her little hand, tilted her head and began to list: "Shanshan knows many languages, Xiaoyuer can use nunchakus, Xiaoliushu knows a lot of things, and Jiajia... Jiajia is very cool!"

Watching Tao Tao carefully counting the strengths of each child with sincere admiration in her eyes, Su Jin felt that the soft corner of his heart was suddenly gently rubbed by a pair of small hands.

Since his sudden explosion in popularity, Su Jin has seen too many double-standard faces of people who flatter in front of others but insult others behind their backs.

With every word of praise, there was an uncomfortable glint of calculation in his eyes.

But there was none of these complicated human emotions in Tao Tao's eyes, only genuine appreciation.

[Oh my god! How can Taotao be so cute!]

[Ah ...

[Looking at Taotao’s confused look, she seems to really think she is very ordinary]

[5555Taotao is so adorable when she's so earnestly counting the other kids' strengths!]

In the live broadcast room, some viewers also noticed some details.

[Am I the only one who noticed that Taotao has memorized all the children's nicknames and specialties?]

[It really is!]

[Not to mention children, even an adult like me would want to be friends with Taotao! She's pretty, has a good temper, and gives you sincere compliments. Who wouldn't want a good friend like that?]

[After Feng Jiayan finished introducing himself, there were a lot of comments cursing him. Some of the words were really too much for a child. But in Taotao's eyes, Feng Jiayan is "cool"!]

[Honestly, children aren't perfect; they have their own unique characteristics. There's nothing wrong with posting comments, but some people should at least be more polite!]

When the plane took off, Tao Tao, wearing her seat belt, couldn't help but look out the window.

It was Tao Tao’s first time on a plane, and she found everything very interesting.

As the scenery outside the window gradually became smaller, Tao Tao couldn't help but open her mouth wide and stare at everything outside the window with her eyes wide open.

After just a short while, sleepiness slowly overwhelmed her small body, and Tao Tao closed her eyes unconsciously.

Su Jin was wearing headphones. When he turned his head slightly, he saw Tao Tao leaning on the back of the chair, her body slightly curled up, her little mouth pursed, sleeping soundly.

Sure enough, he is still a child.

Su Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand gently, and poked Tao Tao's dimple.

The next moment, not knowing what happened in the dream, she actually opened her mouth slightly, and her little hand unconsciously raised up and hugged Su Jin's hand.

Su Jin, who was caught off guard by having his hand hugged, widened his eyes slightly and then gently knocked on the back of the photographer's chair.

The photographer, whose dream was disturbed, turned around and met Su Jin's smug smile: "Quickly take a picture of this scene! Does this mean that Taotao likes me very much?"

"Tsk, even though I'm liked by kids, there's nothing to brag about..."

There's nothing to show off, so why did you wake me up just to take pictures?

The photographer adjusted his equipment and focused on Tao Tao's face while listening to Su Jin's words and complaining in his heart.

At this moment, Tao Tao gently rubbed Su Jin's hand and murmured softly.

When the photographer pushed the lens to Tao Tao's face, with the help of the microphone on the camera, Su Jin and the photographer finally succeeded in hearing the content of Tao Tao's sleep talking.

"Hehehe... Big chicken leg, don't run away... Big chicken leg... Delicious big chicken leg..."

As Tao Tao spoke, saliva flowed lightly from the corner of her mouth.

Su Jin:? !!

Photographer:! Hahahahahahahaha——

When the plane was finally about to land, Tao Tao was woken up by Su Jin.

She opened her eyes dazedly, only to find Su Jin's face as black as the bottom of a pot: "Brother, are we there yet?"

Although Tao Tao called him "brother", the image of "big chicken leg" still lingered in Su Jin's mind.

Su Jin, who was in the middle of a quarrel, couldn't help but look away and replied vaguely, "Yeah."

***

The first episode was recorded in a beautiful ethnic minority village.

After getting off the plane and taking a bus, the guests finally arrived at the recording location, exhausted.

After such a long journey, Su Jin was already a little impatient, but he didn't expect that he couldn't rest immediately and needed to complete the tasks arranged by the program team.

"The program team has prepared five rooms of different sizes for everyone. Now, everyone can follow the VCR and experience the styles of the five rooms together."

Room 1 is a minority-style room, full of local characteristics, and there are even embroidered artworks on the wall; although Room 2 is a little smaller than Room 1, it is hidden in the bamboo forest, like the place where knights live in seclusion in fairy tale movies; Room 3 and Room 4 are both ordinary small bungalows in the village, the only difference is the size of the houses.

"Room 1 is so beautiful!" Gu Shanshan's eyes lit up as she looked at the embroidery on the wall.

"Room 2 is still more stylish!" Cao Haoyu looked at Room 2 and nodded with satisfaction, as if he had already imagined what it would be like living there.

"Tsk, don't think you can live in Room 2 just because you want to." Gu Shanshan couldn't stand Cao Haoyu's smug look.

"Heh, you too. I originally wanted to stay in room 2, but now I've decided to take your room 1!"

"you!"

Just as Gu Shanshan and Cao Haoyu were arguing with each other, Tao Tao looked left and right and uttered a syllable anxiously: "Ah..."

Don't quarrel!

But when the VCR was played in Room 5, the children who had been chattering away, including the celebrity guests at the scene, fell silent instantly.

Only Tao Tao, looking at Room 5, couldn't help but open her mouth wide, her eyes shining.

Looking at the small hill full of primitive style on the screen, Su Jin secretly made up his mind that he must not be the last one.

He doesn't want to live in a place like this!

Obviously, judging from the sudden changes in the expressions of the people around him, Su Jin was not the only one who thought this way.

When all the guests were full of fighting spirit, the program team announced a small game to decide their accommodation.

"This game is - sit in a row and eat fruit."

"Parents and children, please peel the mangosteens. The group that eats the most mangosteens at the end will win. But please note, children can only eat mangosteens peeled by their parents, and parents can only eat mangosteens peeled by their children."

When the staff brought up whole boxes of mangosteen, Tao Tao's eyes lit up.

Before the competition started, Tao Tao picked up the mangosteen and looked at it curiously.

"This is how you peel a mangosteen..." While Su Jin was instructing Tao Tao on how to peel a mangosteen, other groups were also making preparations before the competition.

The whistle blows and the game begins!

Tao Tao was not as fast as Su Jin in peeling mangosteens. She had only peeled one mangosteen while Su Jin had already peeled three.

Their group formed a sharp contrast with Feng Jiayan's group next to them.

A small mountain of mangosteen shells soon piled up in front of Feng Jiayan, almost twice the number in front of Tao Tao.

Gu Shanshan and Cao Haoyu were silently competing with each other. Gu Shanshan turned around and saw that Cao Haoyu had peeled more mangosteens than her, and immediately snorted; Cao Haoyu turned around and found that Gu Shanshan had peeled more mangosteens than him, and immediately became nervous.

Among the five children, only Meng Liu was still peeling the mangosteen slowly and carefully. Each of them was very careful not to bump into the mangosteen flesh.

When the game was about a third of the way through, Su Jin looked at the pile of mangosteen shells on his side and the scattered mangosteen shells in front of Tao Tao, and immediately changed his strategy: "Tao Tao, from now on, you are only responsible for eating the mangosteen, okay?"

Tao Tao opened her eyes wide and nodded happily: "Sure!"

[Which group do you think will win in the end?]

[I think it might be Cao Haoyu or Gu Shanshan, they peeled a lot of small mangosteens]

[Emm…I don’t think so. Although they peeled a lot of small mangosteens, they didn’t eat much.]

[I bet Taotao will win! Ever since she and Su Jin split up the work, Taotao has been eating mangosteens really fast! Maybe she can catch up with the other groups?]

[Wow wow wow… Taotao’s cheeks are puffed up from eating mangosteen. I really want to pinch her cheeks.]

The game lasts for 3 minutes in total. When there are only 30 seconds left, the host starts to remind you of the time.

"30 seconds left!"

"Only 10 seconds left!"

“3, 2…1!”

"Time's up!"

After the game is over, the results of the game will be counted immediately.

After counting the 12 mangosteen shells of Meng Liu and Qin Xuan and the 15 of Tan Zishi and Cao Haoyu, the host began to count the mangosteen shells in front of Su Jin and Tao Tao.

“1, 2, 3…28, 29!”

When the results of Su Jin and Tao Tao's group were counted, it was obvious who would take first place.

As the first place winners, Su Jin and Tao Tao can choose the house they want.

"Taotao, which house do you want to go to?"

Just when everyone thought Tao Tao would choose the largest and most spacious Room 1, Tao Tao raised her hand and excitedly pointed at the small hill that everyone disliked: "Tao Tao wants Room 5!"

Room No. 5 looks like a small bread!

Su Jin, who was originally confident of victory, slipped and almost fell to the ground.

Wait! I must have heard wrong!
