Chapter 290: The Mystery Guest Is Li Chuan
Tao Jingyuan and Zheng Kuo were confused, too. What mission would take place at their house? They had no idea.
“It can’t be a music competition, right?” asked Zheng Kuo expectantly. He knew that some of the guests could play musical instruments.
“Maybe,” said Tao Jingyuan. ‘You have some extra instruments you brought along, right?”
[Why didn’t I think it could be a music competition? The Festival Group might choose a song and the guests might have to select an instrument and play their rendition of the song.]
[It’s good to listen to music before sleeping.] [But Jiejie said it might be a clay modeling competition.] [I think it’s more likely to be a music competition.]
[Xiaoxiao doesn’t seem to have a talent for music. It’s unfair!]
[Except for Xiaoxiao’s house, everyone seems to be able to play one instrument or another.]
[Xiaoxiao’s family should be the judges then.]
The five families also discussed the mission at length.
After dinner, Li Zexuan went to do his homework and study for a while. Li Yanchen was in charge of washing the dishes. Lin Wan and Li Zekai were listening to some music in the courtyard.
Everyone seemed to have forgotten that the staff was planning for a mystery guest to arrive at Lan Village.
In the parking lot outside the village, the director and the assistant director welcomed Li Chuan.
Li Chuan was 7-foot-7. He was called “Little Giant” because of his tallness. He was just 22 years old, but he was already a noticeable figure in the National Basketball Organization.
He had captained the basketball team in international competitions in foreign countries.
He was the only professional sports star invited by the Festival Group personally. He was supposed to arrive at 3 p.m. but due to some delay, he had only made it at 6.
The director, who was considered tall among his peers, looked so small in front of Li Chuan.
After a small chat, the director led Li Chuan to the Festival group office and prepared him a meal.
Li Chuan was invited because he had just won the Asian Cup against all odds. He was neither humble nor arrogant while doing so. He always appeared calm and composed in front of the media and gave his opinion.
In addition, Li Chuan had rejected countless peace offers from teams of other countries. The media claimed that his most impressive quality was his determination, along with his skill as a sportsman.
The staff had prepared a basketball to be signed by Li Chuan.
They knew that Xiao Yi and Li Zexuan were fans of Li Chuan. They had talked about their “idol” at length in the last basketball match in the village.
The Festival group had chosen Feifei’s house at the behest of Li Chuan.
Li Chuan had watched the previous episode of the show. He liked Feifei because the child was different and often underestimated by others. So, he decided to meet him.
The Festival group had made an excuse for a new mission because they wanted all the families to gather there.
After a few hasty bites of food, Li Chuan was ready to visit Feifei’s house with the staff.
At seven, Feifei’s house was brightly lit. Everyone was sitting in the courtyard, ready for another mission.
It was already dark. No one remembered that a mystery guest was supposed to arrive today. They didn’t know why the Festival group was keeping this mission in suspense.
Tao Jingyuan passed around some sunflower seeds and peanuts.
“Lawyer Tao, are you preparing for the new year already? You even brought along sunflower seeds and peanuts!” said Xia Mo.
Tao Jingyuan chuckled. “I just thought it would pass the time nicely while we wait here. Here, try some.” She placed a plate full of sunflower seeds on the table.
Ning Xiaoxiao looked at her mother. Sunflower seeds were supposedly high in calories, but she was so hungry.
Zhou Pei nodded. “Just a little.”
Ning Xiaoxiao sat with the other children happily and peeled the shell of the sunflower seed very slowly.
[What is this? Sunflower seed peeling competition?]
[Lawyer Tao is also so down-to-earth. I think people will now buy sunflower seeds in droves. It will be out of stock soon.]
[Everyone seemed to have their own teams. Mothers have banded together. Fathers have also made a group. The children already have a team of their own.]
[Does anyone remember the Festival group mentioning a mystery guest who was supposed to arrive today? Where are they?]
[I completely forgot about that.]
[I remember. I don’t know if they will be arriving anytime soon though.]
The director and assistant director led Li Chuan directly to Feifei’s house. Li Chuan had been looking forward to this trip. The three of them knocked on Feifei’s door.
The families were chatting among themselves and didn’t hear the knock. The three of them pushed the door open and entered directly.
Xia MO turned and stared at the Little Giant. “Heavens! It’s that guy!” Xia MO spat out the sunflower seeds and jumped up from the chair. Everyone turned to look at the door. “It’s Li Chuan!” said Xiaoxiao.
Li Zexuan’s mouth fell open in shock.
Everyone cleared the mess on the table in a panic.
The director smiled. “Everyone, no need to be so flustered. Please continue with whatever you are doing. This is our mystery guest that I informed you of yesterday. Because of a delay in his flight schedule, he only just arrived. Please give him a round of applause to welcome him here with us!” Li Chuan bowed. “Thank you. It’s very nice to meet you all.” “Li… Li Chuan.” Nobody had seen Xiao Yi this nervous before.
[It’s Li Chuan. Oh my god! This is so exciting!]
[The Festival Group invited Li Chuan?! The guests here are all elites, aren’t they?]
Xiao Yi thought of the reward of the first mission they had participated in. His father had won. The mystery guest would be staying with them tonight!
He felt like he was the luckiest person alive.
Li Chuan walked toward the children. “Hi, Feifei. I saw your clay models. They are so amazing! And Li Zekai, you’re Feifei’s best friend, right? You’re the kindest kid I have ever seen.” He turned to Xiao Yi. “Xiao Yi, nice to meet you. The top student, right?”
Li Chuan actually knew the names of all the children and praised them for their personality or their talent.
[Li Chuan’s EQis so high. He is so polite!]
[He must have watched all the previous episodes. He really put in a lot of effort to know about the children.]
[Li Chuan brings glory to the country, and he turns out to be perfect as well!]
[Did you see Xiao Yi stutter? Li Chuan is his idol. He looks like his heart is in his throat.]
[Imagine being this nervous just seeing your idol. What will happen to him when his idol stays in his house tonight?]
[Oh my god! I forgot about that! The Festival Group planned this, didn’t they?
They knew Xiao Yi idolized Li Chuan. They are so thoughtful]
[Xuanxuan also likes Li Chuan a lot.]
[Do they all like Li Chuan? Feifei and Li Zekai grabbed his hands from either side. They look so tiny.]
“Brother Li Chuan, I know you! I’ve watched you on TV with my brother a hundred times. You just fly when you play! You are so good!” said Li Zekai as he raised himself on his tiptoes.
Li Chuan squatted on the ground. “Thank you. It’s nice to meet you all, too.”
Xiao Yi calmed himself after a long while. He walked to Li Chuan. “You’re the only center forward that I admire.”
[Xiao Yi had finally managed to speak.]
[Xiao Yi must be almost tearing up.]
[Li Chuan said he also admires Xiao Yi for his academic prowess!]
[Are they praising each other? ]
[How must it feel hearing your idol say they admire you too?]
“This task was to have you all gathered here so you could talk and chat. You can ask Li Chuan anything. Of course, it’s up to Li Chuan to choose to answer the questions you throw at him. There is just one request. Please finish everything by eight. The livestream will have to end at that time.”
“Just that?”
