Li Yanchen kept his eyes on the comments.

Before Lin Wan, he had never traveled with his family for recreation. He only ever went on business trips.

“I’m being truthful,” Li Yanchen said firmly.

[Xuanxuan doesn’t know yet. Xuanxuan, your dad said he’ll take you to the south for winter vacation. We took a screenshot for you.]

[I want to meet Xuanxuan there and Lin Wan My two favorite people!] [I want to meet Lin Wan too. I wonder what she looks like in real life.]

Li Yanchen stared at the comments with a heavy heart. Why did they always exclude him? Not a single person said they wanted to meet him!

He looked at his face on the screen. Was he no longer attractive?

[Everyone, please give Xuanxuan some personal space. If you really encounter him, don’t bother him. Xuanxuan has said that he wants to walk on the streets like an ordinary person. He wants to feel free and unrestricted.]

[Yes… he has said it many times, so if you happen to meet him, don’t approach him. You can silently take a photo as a keepsake, but don’t post it online.] [Lin Wan also feels the same way, right?]

[Yes. They want to take the trip to relax. Let’s not make things difficult for them.]

Although nobody mentioned him, these words made Li Yanchen feel better. “Thank you for your understanding. Indeed, our family doesn’t like being surrounded by crowds. We are all very reserved people.” [Okay. No crowding.]

[I feel like crying. Can’t I even ask for one autograph?]

[Me too. I feel embarrassed to ask for a photo if I accidentally see them.]

[Will Xinxin greet us?]

[Dream on… Xinxin seems lively, but he’s actually very reserved. He only talks with people he is familiar with. I saw Xinxin in Yun City. He is super serious.]

[Really?]

[You actually met Xinxin? I’m so jealous. I really want to see him, too.]

“Wind God!” Li Zexin came out holding a test paper.

He sat between Li Yanchen and Xiao Yi.

“Are you guys reading the comments? What are they saying?” He curiously glanced at it.

Seeing the comments filled with greetings and discussion about what to do when they met the Li family, Li Zexin was speechless.

[Xinxin, if I meet you, I will just watch you from afar. I won’t disturb you.]

[I will give you the freedom you want!]

[Hahaha… If I just read the comments without context, all these sound like breakup messages.]

[Xinxin, if you come to the south, you must try the butter crab and fried oyster.]

[Xinxin, I know you like seafood. There’s a big seafood market in the south where you can choose and process fresh seafood on the spot. You can look it up.]

Li Zexin was puzzled. ‘Am I traveling to the south?’

“Thank you, everyone. If there’s a chance for a visit, I will definitely give it a try.” Li Zexin then turned to Xiao Yi. “Wind God, I solved everything except the last question. I tried to do it, but I got it wrong. The steps are so complicated. Is there a simpler process?”

With his son there to fill the silence, Li Yanchen finally had an opportunity to take a break. He went to his room.

At noon, the family of five had bowls of shredded pork noodles and then returned to their rooms. Lin Wan wrapped herself in a blanket and read a book.

Li Yanchen walked over to her and patted his wife’s head.

Lin Wan was so startled that she dropped the book.

“Li Yanchen, you scared me! Why were you so silent?”

Li Yanchen picked up the book from the floor and handed it back to her. “I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay. Why are you here? Are you done with the livestream?”

“Xiao Yi came over, and Xinxin is in the yard with him.” Li Yanchen leaned against his wife’s shoulder. “Wanwan, I made a decision. I even announced it in the livestream. I realize that I haven’t asked for your opinion yet. I want to take the family to the south for the winter.”

“Huh?” Lin Wan was very surprised. “Didn’t we agree to celebrate the holidays with Mama Bao this year?”

“We can take Auntie Bao along. She has been working hard all these years.”

Lin Wan stroked his cheek. “I’ll go along with whatever you decide. As long as we’re together as a family, I don’t care where we go. Should we ask the children for their opinions?”

“They’ve wanted to spend time together for a long time. It’s my fault for not making time for them.” Li Yanchen lowered his head.

Lin Wan shook her head. “What have you been doing these years?”

“I’ll change.” Li Yanchen hugged his wife. “I will make more time and be with you all from now on.”

“Great! Xuanxuan and the others will be very happy to hear that,” said Lin Wan. “The farthest Auntie Ba has traveled is from her hometown to Yun City. She says she has never experienced what it’s like to travel in her whole life. Let me call her.” Lin Wan dialed the number and put it on speaker when it connected.

Auntie Bao and her neighbor, Liu Guiqin, were eating peanuts in the yard. When Liu Guiqin saw Lin Wan’s call, her lips curled into a smile. “It’s your daughter’s call.”

“Wanwan?” Auntie Bao’s voice was gentle.

“Auntie Bao, I have some good news. We’re planning to go to the south for winter vacation… around January 25th. We want to take you with us.” Auntie Bao was a little worried. “What about the chickens and ducks at home?”

“Don’t worry. We’ll arrange for someone to take care of them. Then it’s settled, Auntie Bao!”

“Going on a trip? Great! I can help with taking care of things here,” Liu Guiqin said.

“Auntie Bao, is that Auntie Liu? Thank you, Aunt Liu! I’ll visit you when I get back home.”

Auntie Bao had switched the phone to speaker mode.

“Wanwan, it’s not a big deal. You don’t need to be so formal with me,” said Auntie Liu.

“Then it’s settled. Goodbye!”

Li Yanchen hadn’t even spoken when Lin Wan hung up. “I wanted to ask if we should take Yang Ruoxi’s family along. You hung up so quickly.”

“Oh, right… It’s okay, I’ll just message Xixi and ask how things are going with Uncle Yang and Auntie Bao.”

“Winter vacation is the peak season for tourists, especially in the south. I’ll have Assistant Qin book the hotel rooms. Our first stop will be Xicheng.” Li Yanchen started making the arrangements.

In the courtyard, Xiao Yi turned away from the camera and patiently explained the question to Li Zexin.

[I want to see them!]

[Wow… the exemplary student is teaching the high schooler. Doesn’t he look like a college professor?]

[Oh no… I graduated from university ten years ago, and I can’t understand what they’re saying.]

[Same here… I feel like I’ve never studied in college before..]
