Xiao Yi was silent for a while. “If I stop playing games one day, I might take this path in life.”
[Xiao Yi replied! That’s fine, Wind God. We’ll wait for you!]
[I’m waiting too, but I still want to see you in esports.]
“Wind God is like me. I’m good at playing games but not so much at singing like my brother,” said Li Zexin. “Wind God is great at gaming. It’s his main thing. He prefers to play games with me.”
Li Zexuan’s face darkened.
[This time, Xinxin is retaliating against Xuanxuan.]
[No, he is just competing for favors.] [He is competing for family status.] [Hahaha… the two brothers are at odds.]
[Xuanxuan is speechless. He didn’t do anything.]
[Xinxin doesn’t think so. He just feels that his position is at risk.]
[Xiao Yi is truly speechless.]
[Why is he speechless? He should be proud.]
“I heard your voices from afar. Are you fighting on the livestream?” Lin Wan suddenly asked.
“Ms. Lin, why are you here?”
“Same as you. Here for a free meal.” Li Yanchen followed behind.
“If the eldest son runs to someone else’s house for a meal, how can we not come to help? We want to exchange our labor for a plate of food,” said Lin Wan.
“Exchange labor?” asked Li Zexuan.
“Yes. Mr. Li, please go and see if there’s anything you can help with.”
Li Yanchen obediently went into the house.
Lin Wan looked around the courtyard. It looked quite clean. There were already three people in the kitchen, and she would only crowd the place if she went in.
‘What else is there to do?’
As she thought about it, she saw Li Yanchen being chased out of the kitchen.
Xia MO saw Lin Wan outside. “Wanwan, let’s end our friendship here.”
Everyone was shocked, including the online viewers. [What happened? Did Mr. Li do something?]
[That’s impossible. We didn’t hear any commotion.]
[It must be because the two children went to eat at Xiao Yi’s house and now, their parents are there too. Poor Xia MO must be exhausted.]
[The four people from the Li family are all there. They have big appetites.]
[But Mr. Li and Lin Wan came to help with the cooking. It might help with Xia
Mo’s workload.]
[More people make more noise.]
Li Zexin thought Xiao Yi’s parents were annoyed because his father and stepmother had arrived out of the blue. “It’s fine for me and Brother Xuanxuan to come and freeload because we are friends with Xiao Yi. But with you two here, it’s only natural that Auntie Xia MO would be angry.”
“Having Li Yanchen work in exchange for food… it’s amazing that you can come up with such an idea,” Xia MO said with her hands on her hips. “Is that what our friendship is worth?”
Lin Wan finally realized that Xia MO was angry at them for feeling like they owed her for the food.
“Li Yanchen, I told you that Xia MO would get angry if we tried to be polite. Now, look at what you’ve done! Xia MO wants to end our friendship! How will we ever be able to freeload meals here?”
Li Yanchen pouted. It had been Lin Wan’s idea all along, and now, he was being thrown under the bus.
“Do we need to act like we are two separate families who just met? I would invite you for a meal even if you didn’t want to come,” said Xia Mo.
“Exactly! Brother Li, why would you barge into the kitchen, start cooking, and say you would feel more at ease that way? You even took my spot away,” Xiao Tianlin chimed in.
Li Yanchen felt wronged.
Lin Wan cheerfully hooked her arm around Xia Mo. “Mr. Li doesn’t understand. You’re absolutely right to criticize him. From now on, I’ll just drag him along. And I won’t bring anything in exchange. We’ll mooch off of you. I’m going to be lazy from now on.”
With that, Lin Wan sat down in a chair. “Well then… I’m going to sit here and wait for food.”
Li Zexin heaved a sigh of relief. Xiao Yi’s parents were angry because his father and his stepmother were trying to be polite, and not because there were too many people freeloading.
[Wow… that’s so petty!]
[Xia MO was just angry because the Li family was trying to be polite as though they were strangers.]
[If my friend suddenly started acting all polite and helpful, I would be angry, too.]
[Exactly!] [Lin Wan pushed all the blame on Mr. Li. It was her idea!]
[I saw it too.]
[Poor Mr. Li is just a scapegoat. He suffers silently. He is a true gentleman.]
[He willingly takes the blame for his wife.]
“Both of you stay here. The kitchen is so small. You’ll only get in the way,” said Xia Mo.
Xiao Tianlin and Xia MO went into the kitchen again.
“As you wish.”
The livestream of Xiao Yi’s house became even more lively. Since they didn’t have to work and were waiting for food, Lin Wan decided to interact with the online viewers together with Xiao Yi and the kids.
However, as soon as her face appeared on the camera, the viewers started teasing her.
[Sister Lin, I can testify that you only suggested it. Mr. Li did everything else!]
[@Previous Poster, Lin Wan is the mastermind.]
[No. It’s all Mr. Li.]
[It’s Mr. Li’s fault.]
Li Yanchen stared at the bullet screen in astonishment. “This is cyberbullying. Don’t be so biased.”
Lin Wan wrapped an arm around his shoulder. “He’s right. It was my idea. He just followed my lead. It’s not that Mr. Li can’t think of things himself, but he just doesn’t dare to disobey me.”
[Lin Wan is just showing off their love at this point, and I’m here for it.] [She’s speaking up for Mr. Li.]
[We’re just joking. We know you’re just too shy to take the family to other people’s houses for a meal.]
[Let’s change the topic. It’s just a small incident.]
“Wind God, if you’re not busy, you can come to our place for dinner. Let’s not eat here every time. Auntie Xia might have a hard time,” said Li Zexin.
Xiao Yi nodded. “Sure.”
“Should we go and call Jiejie?”
[The children are painting at Feifei’s house. Their clothes are covered in paint.
They are going to get a good scolding when they return to their houses.]
[Paint can be washed off with water.]
[That’s right. Ink can be washed off easily, too.]
[The kids are having a great time. Jiejie should stay at Feifei’s house for dinner.
Mrs. Tao makes things that children like to eat most.] [Don’t call Jiejie. They’re all having lunch at Feifei’s house.]
“I’ll go and take a look.” Li Zexin didn’t read the comments.
At Feifei’s house, the children were painting. They chose their favorite brush and used some watercolors.
Tao Jingyuan prepared snacks for everyone. The children occasionally looked at what their friends were drawing.
Li Zekai chose bright colors..
