Li Yanchen noticed the admiration on Lin Wanâs face. She had been applauding and smiling all along.
âWanwan, is there anything in particular that you admire about me?â Li Yanchen couldnât help but ask.
âMany,â said Lin Wan.
âSuch as?â
âHuh?â Lin Wan wondered if Li Yanchen wanted her to praise him.
She understood his hint. âYou love your wife and your family. You always cherish the time with your family. You work so hard to provide for them, and you never give upâ¦â
Before Lin Wan could finish her words, Li Yanchen interrupted her and said,
âSo many? Iâm this great, and I didnât even realize it!â
âMr. Li, stop being so cheeky. Clearly, you hinted for Ms. Lin to praise you, and now youâre pretending to be modest,â Li Zexin said.
Li Yanchen slapped his sonâs back. âGo away! Why are you everywhere?â
Li Zexin rubbed his back. âMs. Lin, you see, heâs not as loving to his family as he seems. He hits me without hesitation.â Li Yanchen pretended to swing his fist. âYou little rascal!â âDad, weâre still livestreaming. Calm down!â âDid everyone have a good time?â the director asked.
âNot enough!!!â
[Is it over? Has it ended? Didnât it just start?]
[Itâs really not enough! Twenty songs⦠and it ended so soon!]
[Over? I fell asleep. Itâs good for falling asleep. The music stopped, and I woke up.]
[@Previous Poster, I suspect you listen to music just to fall asleep.]
[The truth is out. I confess too. I got sleepy just now, and when the music stopped, I was jolted awake.]
âItâs already nine oâclock, and the guests need to rest. Thank you, everyone,â the director said.
[I thought they were going to add two more songs in the end.]
[Add extra? Dream on. Thatâs extra pay.] [Talking about money ruins the mood.]
[Twenty songs were enough. Be content with it.]
[Everyone, rest early. Theyâve been singing nonstop until now.]
They all stood in front of the camera together, thanked the fans, and said goodnight.
The camera was shut off.
Everyone was free to talk freely now. Li Zexin pulled Xiao Yiâs arm. âGreat! See you tomorrow.â
âSee you tomorrow.â Xiao Yi smiled bitterly.
âLi Zexin is really clingy. I canât stand it. I want to go home and sleep.â
âIâm leaving. Goodnight.â
âGo ahead. Iâve said âgoodnightâ more than ten times now.â Li Zexuan, who was impatient with his dawdling little brother, pulled him along.
On the way, he couldnât help but express his annoyance. âLi Zexin, as a man, canât you be more decisive and straightforward in your actions? Whatâs with all this hesitating and dilly-dallying?
Li Zexin retorted, âBig brother, how am I not straightforward? Iâm not only straightforward but also honest. Take the two songs I just sang. Arenât they manly enough for you?â
âYour voice is too loud; what I mean isâ¦â
âI get it. I get it! Youâre even more long-winded than Mr. Li. Come on, big bro, youâre the truly pompous one. Letâs walk faster. I want to finish reading my manga tonight and discuss it with Wind God tomorrow.â Li Zexin quickened his pace.
Not far away, Lin Wan and Li Yanchen strolled leisurely.
Li Yanchen put his arm around Lin Wanâs shoulder. âItâs getting colder. Wanwan, are you cold?â
âNot at all.â
âOnly three more days, and weâll be going back. I feel a bit reluctant, â Li
Yanchen said.
âAlthough we only stay for six days each time, the episode has spanned over half a year. There are a lot of memories here, so itâs indeed hard to part with it.â Lin Wan felt the same way.
âHow about we dig up some soil to take back with us and plant some flowers? That way, weâll always have a part of Lan Village with us?â asked Lin Wan.
âSure. A small amount.â
âOf course, did you think I would come over with an excavator to dig a big hole? Hahahaâ¦
âWhat are you talking about? You two look so happy.â Xia MO patted Lin Wanâs shoulder.
âWeâre talking about digging up some soil tomorrow to take back as a souvenir.â
âThat actually sounds great. We can always remember Lan Village that way.â
âTeacher Bai Xue! I almost forgot. I need to find her and get her autograph tomorrow,â said Xia Mo. âI asked her today to sign it, but then I got busy and forgot.â
âI also need to get her signature. When I chat with people in the group chat, I can say that Iâm friends with Bai Xue. Oh⦠I havenât checked the messages in the Circle of Madams group chat yet,â said Lin Wan.
âTake your time to catch up on the news when you get home and relax in bed. See you tomorrow.â Xia MO hugged Lin Wan.
At the Li family house, the three kids had washed up and were ready for bed.
Lin Wan got ready for bed too. She then checked the group chat.
There were many red envelopes and messages mentioning her.
[Wanwan must have been too busy with tasks and didnât have time to check the group chat.]
[Wanwan, you should download a red envelope-grabbing app next time. There are so many unclaimed red envelopes.]
[Wanwan, Teacher Bai Xue is my idol. An autograph would be greatâ¦] [I wonât chat anymore. I need my beauty sleep. Goodnight.]
[Sleeping so early? Can you fall asleep so early?]
[Shuang Shuang has always had a regular schedule. She always sleeps early and wakes up early. Itâs a good habit.]
[Sleep well. Goodnight! Remember to turn on the âDo Not Disturbâ mode in your phone in case we disturb you.]
[Wanwan, are you going to reply to messages today?]
[Sheâs been doing missions and must be tired. Weâre not up to anything important. We sent so many messages. It must be exhausting to reply to everyone. Wanwan might not have the time to reply.]
Lin Wan didnât open any of the red envelopes. Instead, she sent a few of her own.
Each red envelope came with a message.
[Sisters, Iâve been so busy today. I only just opened the group chat. I flipped through the messages a bit, and Iâll quickly reply to a few.]
[If you have something important, please message me privately. Iâm afraid I might miss it in the group chat.]
[This is the last episode of the live broadcast. There might be frequent missions. I might not be on my phone all day.]
[Wanwan is here!]
[Youâve worked hard. Thereâs nothing important today. Wash up and sleep.
Weâll be waiting for you when you come back.]
[Wait, Wanwan, can you help me get an autograph from Bai Xue? I want one.]
[I want one as well.] âSure,â Lin Wan replied. [Thanks!]
[Wanwan is the best!]
[Hurry and get some rest. It must be late for you, right?]
âOkay. Letâs meet when I get back.â [Goodnight.]
Lin Wan put her phone down.
âThe ladies have been quiet lately, havenât they? Theyâre asking you to rest early too.â Li Yanchen glanced at the phone screen.
âDonât peek at my messages!â
âI wasnât peeking. The screen is so big. The words practically jumped out.â Li Yanchen looked up.
âYou have so many excuses. Did Jiejie and the others go to bed?â
âTheyâve all gone into their rooms. I brought some water to soak your feet. You should freshen up and get into bed. Arenât you cold sitting here?â he asked as he placed the slippers on her feet.
âI can do it myself.â Lin Wan hastily pulled her feet back. She couldnât bear to let Li Yanchen do it for her.
In the room next door where the kids were, Li Zekai propped himself up on his bed.
âBrother, when we go home, do we have to stay in our own rooms, or can we all share a room? I like it when all three of us stay together.â
âWhatâs so good about it? You snore and grind your teeth in your sleep,â Li Zexin said.
âYou even farted, and I didnât complain. The three of us staying in one room means we can talk to each other all the time. Itâs nice this way,â said Li Zekai..
