Qin Yuan was startled for a mont, hesitated for a while, then smiled at her like a spring breeze, "Okay."
Gu Zhidan smiled and nodded.
Seeing this, Mrs. Qin said, "Then you all accompany Zhi Zhi, your dad and I won’t go. I just took a job, catering for two days can earn two thousand, and your dad should return to the construction site too."
Gu Zhi was a little surprised but didn’t say much, just reminded, "Don’t overwork yourselves."
"Got it." Mrs. Qin smiled with relief, "This is all thanks to the fa from you being on the show, otherwise, we couldn’t earn this much before."
Gu Zhi slightly curled her lips; this was one reason she brought them on the reality show. The online exposure could sowhat change the current financial situation of the Qin Family.
While she was thinking, a shrimp was added to her bowl. Qin Mo, wearing disposable gloves, placed the perfectly peeled, plump shrimp in her bowl.
He lowered his voice and said, "Sis, eat."
Gu Zhi glanced at him, nodded slightly with a touch of a smile, "Isn’t Momo having exams soon?"
Qin Mo was now a second-year high school student, having skipped grades along the way, and was preparing to challenge the college entrance exam as a senior this year.
Of course, even if he didn’t take the exam, when he beca a senior, countless top universities would offer him guaranteed admissions. His grades were always excellent.
Qin Mo was startled, not expecting that she rembered the casual ntion he had made.
He nodded, "Mm, in a few days."
"Good luck with the exams." Gu Zhi squeezed his hand briefly to encourage him.
Qin Mo was sowhat nervous; after she let go, he couldn’t help wiping his sweaty palms on his pants, but his eyes couldn’t hide his delight.
After eating, Gu Zhi left, and this ti Qin Ji escorted her back to her apartnt.
Leaving the Qin Family mbers to clean up the table.
At the dining table, no one moved.
Qin Yuan, observing keenly, pursed his lips and suddenly said, "Zhi Zhi seems to have changed a lot."
"Indeed," Qin Zheng frowned, thoughtful, "She never used to be picky with food, today she didn’t even touch her favorite Chinese yam. And her temperant is less lively than before."
"But I like her like this, learning to protect herself."
Qin Yuan paused, his hand on the table clenched slightly, feeling indescribable heartache.
She only grew because of all she’s been through...
He pursed his lips and said, "No matter how she changes or who she becos, she will always be our little sister."
"Of course, it’s not like I’m going to stop treating her as my sister." Qin Zheng retorted, sowhat indignant, he had the chance to be on the show with Zhi Zhi. While collecting the chopsticks, he couldn’t help but tap Qin Yuan’s hand in warning, "Don’t think you’re closer to Zhi Zhi just because you were on the show with her, I’m her closest third brother!"
"..." Qin Yuan rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Qin Mo also didn’t feel like engaging with him, silently collecting bowls.
-
Inside the apartnt.
Qi Hengli had just finished his howork and ca out of the study to see his uncle lounging on the sofa, unusually watching a video.
He couldn’t resist walking over to take a look, and the video featured a girl who was quite attractive!
Several close-up shots magnified the girl’s stunningly beautiful face, her skin like white snow, lips like a crimson dot, and her slender, white neck resembling a swan’s.
Qi Hengli was stunned, finding it hard to believe, when did his aloof uncle ever watch videos of girls??
He couldn’t help blurting out, "Is that... Auntie!?"
The person on the sofa was startled by his sudden voice, imdiately turned off the phone, and rubbed his temples.
"No." Qi Hanyu sat up, looked at him speechlessly, "Finished your howork?"
"Yes!" Qi Hengli generously handed it over, "Please check."
Qi Hanyu took it, flipped through a few pages—Qi Hengli’s learning was decent, with not many errors, he quickly finished marking and pointed out a few mistakes.
"Look into these types of questions again." He returned the paper to him and then broached the main topic, "I heard Yun Lin asked you to accompany him on a reality show tomorrow?"
"Yes, my cousin said our aunt and uncle are busy tomorrow and can’t go. Since I’ve already secured a spot through guaranteed admission and holidays are coming, my cousin asked to go with him to relax."
Qi Hanyu nodded, "This show is broadcast live; be mindful of what you should and shouldn’t say, and don’t forget to study while enjoying yourself."
"Got it." Qi Hengli patted his chest confidently and suddenly rembered sothing, asking, "By the way, Uncle, why didn’t my cousin invite you? As soone in the industry, wouldn’t you have more access?"
Qi Hanyu didn’t speak, glanced at him, and his deep eyes showed no emotion.
Although he didn’t reply, Qi Hengli had a sudden realization, "I got it, cousin is scared of you! He doesn’t want to be watched by an elder on the show!"
Qi Hanyu: "..."
Qi Hengli stuffed the test paper back in his bag, preparing to leave, but before he went, he still couldn’t resist asking, "By the way, Uncle, was that pretty sister just now really not Auntie!!"
"..." Qi Hanyu twitched the corner of his eye, too lazy to respond, couldn’t help but kick him, "You can leave now."
Qi Hengli was startled and quickly slung on his backpack and rushed out.
But just as he entered the elevator lobby, he saw a slender figure walking out. The woman wore a low-back top, revealing exquisite collarbones.
She was wearing a mask, concealing the lower half of her face, yet her delicate features and prominent nose remained undeniable.
Every part was impeccably exquisite.
But the person moved quickly, almost brushing past Qi Hengli.
It wasn’t until the elevator door closed that he belatedly matched her with the person in his uncle’s video earlier, stunned, wasn’t she the beauty Uncle was just watching!!
Yet he said she’s not Auntie, but they’re living together!!!
The more Qi Hengli thought about it, the more gossip-filled he felt.
However, naturally, he didn’t have the courage to ask his uncle directly, ahhhh!!!
Gu Zhi, of course, was unaware of these side stories. After returning to her apartnt, she did so yoga and rested.
The next day, the third episode of "Dear Family" aired as scheduled.
Gu Zhi and Dai Qian went early to the Qin Family to pick up Qin Ji and Qin Yuan.
Neither of them had much luggage; one suitcase was completely sufficient.
Nor did they dress up deliberately—after going through the wardrobe in the morning, it was still those few clothes, but their appearances were not affected.
Seeing them, Dai Qian’s professional instinct kicked in at first glance—those looks, if they entered the entertainnt industry, would definitely capture a large base of female fans!!!
But he didn’t dare ntion it, especially since Gu Zhi was his employer now.
The four went straight to the airport.
Dai Qian, still like a nagging old woman, admonished them, "Don’t ss around on the show, just perform steadily, don’t need to be polite to the Gu Family, retort if necessary! Other things, leave it to , don’t forget to look at those scripts I sent you, choose one for , and we’ll schedule an audition when we get back."
Gu Zhi replied with a blank expression, but clearly showed improvent from last ti.
When it was ti, they queued for security checks.
anwhile, several videos were released online, quickly hitting the trending topics.
