The Useless Stepmom Brings Her Kids to Reality TV Shows to Photograph Them - Chapter 135

135 I Can’t Even Be a Human Anymore

Li Zekai and Feifei led the way as they made their way home.

“Feifei, your house isn’t far from mine. Can I come play with you?” Tutu had been his best friend but since Tutu was no longer here, Li Zekai feared being left alone.

[Already making new friends?]

[It’s so cute, but little brother has always been very warm. He was so friendly to Feifei the moment he arrived.]

!!
[Li Zexin is still pestering Xiao Yi. How did he do in his exams?]

“You can take me in as your new team member now. Why not make use of the live broadcast and make it a public announcement?” Li Zexin held onto Xiao Yi’s arm.

Xiao Yi had already discussed with his team members to let in Li Zexin as a substitute. But he still wanted to tease him further.

“You made it only to the thirteenth place and you have the nerve to say that?”

[I heard it. He got thirteenth place. Hahahaha.]

[That’s why I missed his name. Hahaha.]

[Didn’t Xiao Yi promise to take in Li Zexin if he could convince Lin Wan to participate in the second episode?]

“There’s a camera behind us. Don’t speak so loudly. I got Ms. Lin to come,” said Li Zexin in a low voice.

“I did say that I would take you in if you could convince Ms. Lin to participate in the second episode, but you said that you wanted to get into the Top Ten with your own abilities.” Xiao Yi completely ignored the camera.

“Yeah. Thirteenth place is good enough. If you round it up, it’s the tenth place. Don’t be so precise. If you don’t take me in, I won’t be able to face my friends in my dorm when I return. My friends from my dorm will be watching, too. They didn’t watch the last episode because it was in June. But now all of them are on holiday, and they will be watching.” Li Zexin covered his face and pretended to cry. “I am the boss of my dormitory.”

“Xiao Yi, stop teasing Xinxin, will you?” Xia Mo, who was walking beside her son, heard everything.

“Teasing? Auntie, what do you mean?” Li Zexin asked.

“Xiao Yi has already decided to take you in as a substitute. He’s just playing with you. But you have to promise to work hard in your academics. You have improved a lot.” Xia Mo smiled.

“Really?!” Li Zexin turned to Xiao Yi. “That wasn’t very nice of you! You made me so nervous.” Hey, God, that’s not very nice of you. You’ve made me nervous the whole way.” Li Zexin punched Xiao Yi playfully on his shoulder, then walked in front of the camera.

“Did you hear that? In the future, I will be a member of the XX Dream Battle Team. My mentor is Xiao Yi, the captain of the XX Dream Battle Team, the Wind God of the e-sport world.” Li Zexn’s face covered the whole camera.

Xiao Xiao glanced at the smug Li Zexin, ” “Mom, go and stop him. It’s too embarrassing.”

“I’ll go.” Li Zexuan couldn’t bear to listen to his brother blabber any longer. ‘He is just a substitute. What’s there to be so happy about?’

[So, it’s a success?]

[Yes, Wind God agreed to let Li Zexin be a substitute!]

[Congratulations!]

[When I see Li Zexin being so smug, I feel like he needs a good beating.]

[I am in the Top Five academically. If you want to enter the XX Dream Battle Team, you have to know Xiao Yi personally. Do you know him?]

[I’m just saying, I’m envious.]

[Why didn’t anyone mention the flying guest?]

[Are you stupid? the Director must have told everyone to keep it a secret. Tomorrow, Ji Hanzhi will appear on set and the show will start.]

[I actually don’t think Lin Wan is as annoying as before.]

…

The four families reached their respective courtyard. The first mission was announced on the broadcast right away.

“Everyone, welcome to another episode of the show “We Are Also Very Ordinary”. Everyone had a difficult journey in the first episode. Considering the difficulties faced in the first episode regarding inaccessibility to food, we hope you have come prepared for this one. A refrigerator has been allocated to every family this time around. We know you haven’t had your lunch yet, so the first task is to fill your stomachs! We wish everyone a very happy stay for the next few days.]

[I am sure the “food” part was directed at Xuanxuan’s family.]

[The refrigerator was definitely prepared for Xuanxuan’s family. They couldn’t give it to just one family, so they gave it to everyone.]

[I hope there’s really a lot of food in the five big luggage. Otherwise, the Festival Group’s good intentions will be vain.]

“Ms. Lin, this time we saw it coming. We brought a lot of dried foods. You don’t have to worry this time.” Li Zexin felt that he and his brothers were very smart.

Lin Wan gave him a meaningful look. “Yes. Good job!”

The four families began to prepare lunch.

At Wheatley’s house, they took out some sausages, bacon, and salted fish from their luggage.

Nannan took a string of sausages and some bacon and started to boil water to wash them. Meanwhile, Michael went to the yard to pick vegetables while Wheatley fanned her stepmother.

[Wheatley’s house is still as warm as ever.]

[Why do I feel like Wheatley’s house is not worth watching anymore? I’m getting a little tired.]

[I also think it’s just too normal and boring.]

[@previous poster, are you crazy? Isn’t this show especially for us to watch their daily lives? What do you expect to happen in the daily lives of people?]

[Agreed. If you don’t want to watch, who is forcing you? Just turn off the live stream. Please don’t comment stupid things Wheatley doesn’t need fans like you.]

At Xiao Yi’s house, Xia Mo did not know that the Li family had brought so much food in their luggage. She was afraid that they might not have anything to eat like last time, so she had packed extra food to share with them.

The ingredients she had packed could be stored at room temperature. She unwrapped a bag of beef and cut it into strips. She picked a few scallions from the yard and made a sauce. Although it was a simple dish, it looked very appetizing.

Following that, she made some tomato egg soup and fried some bamboo shoots. She had prepared extra portions, so she sent Xiao Yi to ask the Li family to come over for lunch.

[Xiaxia is so smart. The dishes she makes are simple and balanced in nutrition.]

[Xiao Yi went to call the Li family. Xia Mo seems to be taking care of Lin Wan.]

[Did you know that Xiaxia is a livestream assistant for Xiao Huan from the Sweet Little Circle? She knows Xiao Huan personally! No matter how much she sides with Lin Wan, I am not going to criticize her.]

[Me too. Xiaxia is kind. There are only three families from the old episodes. They must have gotten attached to each other.]

At Feifei’s house, Zheng Kuo was the one who cooked. He was very skilled. He first cut a pot of potato, then prepared green and red chili, and brought out the fish that had been marinating since early in the morning. Fish was his son’s favorite food. He steamed the fish while stir-frying the potatoes in another pot. In twenty minutes, the dishes were ready.

[Brother Zheng is really good at cooking.]

[Twenty minutes? This family is so fast. Maybe they will be the first to eat!]

[No, the Xuanxuan family has already taken a bite of food.]

The topic changed to Li Zexuan’s family.

[What? So fast? It can’t be compressed biscuits and ham sausage again, right?]

[No, no.]

[I’m sorry, guys. I’m going to the Li family’s live broadcast room to take a look. I’m really curious.]

[I’m going to take a look too. I really want to know what Li Yanchen and Lin Wan are up to.]

[I really want to stay here and watch Feifei’s family, but I am also curious about the Li family.]

The fans of Feifei’s live broadcast room were like the internet Water Army hired by the Li family. They deliberately kept people in suspense to attract people to the Li family’s live broadcast room. No one mentioned what the Li family had cooked in the bullet comments so keep the suspense alive.
