Li Zexin was a guest that she had liked since the first season. Did she have to bid him goodbye already?

“Brother Xinxin…” Feifei’s eyes welled up. Li Zexin hadn’t been in two of the previous episodes. Feifei’s mother had told him that he had classes and couldn’t take time off. It would probably be the same next time.

Even though he usually played with kids around his age, Feifei still felt sad when he heard that Li Zexin might not be coming to the show again.

Li Zexin placed his hands behind his back and looked up. “I’ll watch the Li Zexin placed his hands behind his back and looked up. “I’ll watch the recorded episodes when I have time. We will definitely have a chance to meet again.”

Xiao Yi patted his shoulder. “If you don’t come, I’ll eat the delicious food on the show for you. ”

“Be careful not to become too chubby. You’re the Wind God, and celebrities must pay attention to their image.”

“I don’t rely on my looks for a living. I rely on my skills.”

“You two can still bicker? It seems like you’re not sad at all. We can still make plans to meet during winter vacation, summer vacation, or even on weekends, ”

Li Zexuan said.

“Yeah, we all have phone watches, right?” Doudou shook her wrist.

“That’s right. We also have a group. I’ll add you.”

“Jiejie, if you have time, come to my house to play. Uncle Qin can take you there. Grandma makes delicious, braised pig’s trotters,” said Tutu.

“Can we come too?” Wheatley asked.

“Of course! We can arrange it in the group. Oh, and let’s keep our plans a secret from the adults,” said Tutu.

The few kids with phone watches took turns doing a secret handshake and promised not to tell the adults what was discussed in the group chat.

Not far away, the moms and dads vaguely overheard the children’s whispers and smiled.

“These children get along so well. This will become a beautiful memory as they grow up,” Nannan said. “I always feel that one day these children will meet again in the same school and remain friends.”

“It’s possible. We might also meet again.” Tao Jingyuan felt a bit sentimental. “In my previous life, besides family, my life was all about work. I rarely met my friends. After joining the show, my life slowed a bit, and I could take time off for myself. I got to know all of you and learned that there’s another way to live my life.”

“Wanwan, I really envy you. I envy your attitude of going with the flow in life,” Xia MO said.

Lin Wan was taken aback at first, and then she smiled. “What do I have that you’re envious of? I’m just drifting along and waiting for death.”

“Wanwan, even drifting along and waiting for death is a skill. I’m more than ten years older than you, and I only truly understand now that we should please ourselves rather than others. And you’re someone who doesn’t care about other people’s opinions.” Xia MO had admired Lin Wan since the first episode.

Lin Wan felt a bit embarrassed by the praise. “Xia, are you saying I’m selfish?” “Ugh… you know that’s not what I meant.”

“I also want to say something. I just met Wanwan in this episode, and she’s the perfect main character in my novel. She’s not really a character without a purpose. She has her own career and is attentive to her family. She never imposes her thoughts on others but naturally gains support and recognition…”

Lin Wan couldn’t stand it anymore. “Please don’t praise me anymore. If you continue, it’ll go to my head. I’m really just lazy and don’t care unless I can’t stand it anymore.”

The dads listened to their wives’ conversation and remained silent.

The men of the families loved their wives. They felt that they weren’t doing enough to support them.

It was already 10 when everyone returned home.

Li Zexin lay flat on his bed and stared at the wooden beams on the ceiling. He wasn’t very sad before, but the conversation made him feel like the others would never see him again.

Li Zekai squeezed onto the bed next to his brother. “Brother Xinxin, Auntie Lin said that our lives are like a train. It stops at many stations along the way, and while some people get off, others get on. So, even though we can’t participate in the show with Tutu and maybe never see Feifei again, we will still meet other friends. ”

Li Zexin pushed his little brother’s head away. “Do you even understand what life is? You’re only in second grade. Did Ms. Lin say such profound things to you?”

“I understand. Life is about living. Are you afraid that you won’t be able to play games with Brother Xiao Yi anymore? After all, every time we come, you pester Brother Xiao Yi to play games with you.”

“Why are you so nosy? How do you have friends?”

“By not participating in the show, the Wind God will definitely team up with other people. His college roommate, for example, and also a fellow schoolmate,” Li Zexuan said.

“No way! The Wind God said that if I study hard and get into my dream high school, whenever I have free time, I can play with him. He will definitely consider me,” Li Zexin retorted.

“Then why are you feeling sad? It’s not like you’ll never see him again.”

“You heartless creatures wouldn’t understand, ” Li Zexin turned away from Li

Zexuan. “I’m going to sleep.”

Li Zekai slowly climbed down and went to his eldest brother’s bed.

“Big brother, can you talk with me for a while?”

Li Zexuan covered his brother’s face. “Go to sleep.”

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Li Zekai had no choice but to go back to his own bed.

The next morning, the weather in Lan Village was gloomy. It seemed like it was going to rain.

During the last day in the village, everyone gathered together, and the crew moved the cameras to a specified location.

Lin Wan woke up before dawn and made desserts. This time it was matcha and cocoa-flavored cheese rolls.

She packed the baked sweets in transparent boxes so that everyone could eat them on their way home.

Li Yanchen embraced her from behind.

“Wanwan, you even thought of making food for everyone to eat on the way. So thoughtful.”

Lin Wan had a bit of cream on her hands. “My hands are dirty. Don’t get it on your clothes.”

Li Yanchen kissed Lin Wan’s ear before letting go of her hand.

Li Zexin woke up before dawn to do his morning reading. He wanted to finish his daily routine, so he could go and meet Xiao Yi.

Li Zekai and Li Zexuan woke uD when the alarm clock went off at 7 a.m.

They smelled the aroma of butter as soon as they got up, so they quickly put on their clothes and ran to the kitchen.

Lin Wan and Li Yanchen had already taken the cheese rolls to the other houses to give to the guests. Finally, they ended up at Xia Mo’s place. Xia MO called the other moms and invited them to have breakfast together.

Everyone arrived one by one..
