Chapter 62

That night, after the father and daughter walked back, they did not hurry to rest. Each sat in a rocking chair in the yard to enjoy the cool air, just in time to video chat with Ling Chujin.

"Mom, did you eat on time today?" The moment the video connected, Ji Ruochu immediately asked.

The little one's voice was a little sweet.

"Yes, mom listened well." Ling Chujin smiled and asked, "Ruoruo, how was your day? Did you have fun?"

Ji Ruochu thought about it and reluctantly nodded, "It was okay, I guess. Just that the director uncle was a bit of a sore loser."

The director who had been on tenterhooks all day and finally relaxed eating instant noodles in the corner: ......

"Hahaha..." Ling Chujin laughed out loud instantly, then nodded solemnly, "It can't be helped, our Ruoruo is so amazing!"

"I guess so." The little one sighed with some distress and quietly bragged to Ling Chujin, "Mom, I almost made the director uncle cry today. If not for that, I wouldn't have let him off the hook."

The director who took another arrow to the knee: I really appreciate you.

【Baby, is it possible to whisper softly but still get recorded because of the mic?】

【Cameraman, I'll give you a drumstick if you turn the camera to show the director's expression now. 】

【+1, I'll chip in a drumstick too.】

【Bro, I'll also give a drumstick.】

The director who was hit by three arrows: ...... I hate audiences without boundaries.

"Oh? Our Ruoruo is so kind." The smile on Ling Chujin's face grew brighter. The mother and daughter chatted enthusiastically for a long time. Seeing they were getting more energetic, Ji Mochen, who had been a background prop, quickly handed milk to the little one.

Only then did Ji Ruochu hand the phone to her dad and hug the milk bottle to start a new round of eating.

After drinking the milk, seeing the couple still being lovey-dovey, the little one was too lazy to butt in. She went to brush her teeth and wash her face on her own.

When the livestream ended, the couple's night talk was not over.

Of course, only after the livestream was closed and Ji Mochen took off his mic did the couple get to today's main topic.

"What did the doctor say after watching the video?" Ji Mochen asked.

"The doctor said it looks like the child was not too badly frightened and recovered well. He told us parents not to be too worried and let it take its course naturally."

"That's good then."

Hearing this, Ji Mochen finally relaxed. Heavens know how worried he was about the child during the day.

He even changed into crew clothes and put on a mask to hide among the crowd to observe.

It can be said that whenever his daughter showed the slightest unhappiness, he would be the first to rush over.

Not until the children held hands and walked back to the village, and he saw no trace of fear on his daughter's face, did he turn and walk towards the lake where the other dads were fishing.

That was why he lagged behind the other dads. Otherwise, he would not have been last place since he also liked fishing in his spare time.

But that was not the point. As long as he could confirm his daughter was indeed not affected by the previous incident, everything was worthwhile.

"Good night, dad!"

Suddenly, the little one who had gone indoors poked her little head out from behind the door, her voice sweet as honey.

"Good night, mom too!"

"Good night, Ruoruo!"

Two voices sounded almost simultaneously. Then the "tadada" sound of the little one's footsteps rang from the room.

At this moment, the warmth in the eyes of the couple was the same.

"Good night, dear."

"Good night." ...

The night grew deeper, and the village fell silent. Only the occasional barking of dogs could be heard as lights darkened one by one and tranquility gradually enveloped the village.

As usual at this time, the city and the internet sprang back to life.

That night, children's toy fishing machines sold out on a certain e-commerce site. Unexpectedly, most of the buyers turned out to be - college students.

【This stuff is a bit boring for elementary schoolers, slightly childish for middle schoolers, but just right for college students!】

【With bait in heart, one can fish anywhere!】

【See, this is the fish platter I secured for you!】

For a time, fishing became all the rage on campuses.

Moreover, college students were especially good at playing tricks. Some painted the crucian carp, while others made little hats for each fish. It was so much fun.

Overnight, the fishing machines became scarce. The roadside stall owners regretted not stocking up more after going through initial confusion and counting money until their hands were numb.

Of course, the few little ones filming the show didn't know about this. Otherwise, they would surely have complained since the toy had negative appeal to them after the director's tricks.

As for the daddies, after getting up early again to buy breakfast for the children, they discovered...

"Tsk, the production team is as stingy as ever."

Seeing the 50 yuan in the envelope, the daddies were all helpless. Clearly, the production team was preventing them from slacking off and not doing tasks in the coming days.

"Let's just get used to it. Isn't this their standard practice?" Lin Yan chuckled.

"Though I am curious what tasks the production team has set up."

"When the children get up, we can go out for a walk together as morning exercise."

...

While walking, the daddies discussed and divided the area to avoid the families colliding.

It wasn't that they feared mutual competition, but mainly to get a grasp of the village situation first before deciding the order of completing tasks.

However, they thought too highly of the production team. For a show with such high viewership, how could the director team make it as simple as letting guests do a task at fixed times?
