Overthinking

“Okay brother, you do look a bit better now. You can go back with daddy and rest. I will play with Okay, brother, I think you’re much more energetic now. You can go back with daddy to rest. I’ll play for a while.” Li Zekai didn’t know what Li Zexuan was up to.

In the livestream in the reed fields, fans searched for Li Zexuan.

[Where did Xuanxuan hide just now? Why was Li Yanchen helping him out?]

[Hey, did he fall? I told you it’s dangerous here.]

[Why does baby Xuan look like he’s leaning on Li Yanchen ‘s shoulder and smiling an evil smile? Am I seeing things?]

[How can I laugh? He obviously fell down. Look at the mud all over his clothes.]

[F * ck, you’re not allowed to go to such dangerous places in the future. What if you scratch your face?]

[Director, please follow Xuanxuan with the camera, or we’ll go off.]

[I agree. When they were playing the game just now, the camera was outside the reeds. If they don’t follow Xuanxuan, I’m going to make a scene.]

Regardless of people commenting on the bullet screen, the cameraman would still have followed Li Zexuan. He knew the channel would gather a lot of traffic and it was good for the show.

Li Zexan was uncomfortable, so he focused his attention on his father.

Li Yanchen felt as though his shoulders were about to collapse from the weight. He still remembered when he had just brought his children back to the country, Li Zexuan was only ten years old. Li Yanchen had carried the two children in each hand and the other on his back.

Seven years had passed since, and he was old after all. Now, Li Zexuan was merely leaning on his shoulder, and he already felt it was very difficult to walk with the weight.

[Although it’s quite funny for Xuanxuan to hang on daddy, it looks so heartwarming.]

[Why do I feel so touched seeing him being supported by his father?]

[Xuanxuan had said that he had very little time that he spent with his father that he even forgot how it feels to be hugged by him. He must feel happy now.]

[Daddy, please spend more time with Xuanxuan. Children without their mothers need more love.]

[This show is really good. Did you guys notice that Xuanxuan is smiling?]

[It would be even better if Lin Wan wasn’t around.]

[Guys, without Lin Wan, Li Yanchen might not even have come here.]

[That’s true.]

The people in the bullet screen began to sympathize with Li Zexuan.

“Put more strength into your legs.” Li Yanchen stopped in his tracks and pulled his son up. “Jiejie and the others are not here anymore.”

Li Zexuan was speechless. ‘Does he know I am pretending?’

“You’re a big star. Shouldn’t you quit sugar? Why do you want the fruit tea so badly? Don’t think I didn’t notice the grapes hanging in the well.”

Li Yanchen had been in the business sector for most of his life. He could tell at a glance whether the other person was lying to him. He could tell that his son was pretending, no matter how good of an actor he was.

Even though Li Zexuan still leaned on his father for support, he exerted more strength in his feet, and it was easier to walk. “I’m still growing so I want to eat whatever I want.”

“Was the fruit tea that good?” Li Yanchen was curious.

“It was alright. Just a tad bit better than plain water.”

“Did you ask Lin Wan to make you fruit tea today?”

“No, I will ask her later.”

“Please let me have a cup, too,” said Li Yanchen.

Li Zexuan was stunned. He looked at his father.

“I mean, I know plain water is tasteless. We always drink coffee in the office,” explained Li Yanchen. “I was just curious how fruit tea would taste.”

Li Zexuan was unsure, he hadn’t secured his own cup for now. He was silent for a while. “Ask her yourself.”

Li Yanchen pushed his son’s hand away. “Then I guess you can walk home by yourself.”

[Has Xuanxuan recovered? Li Yanchen is not supporting him anymore.]

[There’s still a few more steps. Couldn’t he have helped him just a little more?]

[My dear son, please look at the bullet screen and tell me where you’re hurt. I’m so worried.]

[Their voices are getting softer and softer. I can’t hear what they’re saying.]

[I heard that Xuanxuan wants to drink fruit tea.]

[When you leave the village, I’ll give you some fruit tea every day.]

[The environment is so bad that it’s forcing our baby into such a state.]

The bunch of fake mothers started to worry again.

“Alright, alright. I will tell her.” Li Zexuan compromised and leaned on his father’s shoulder.

The cameraman followed them the entire time. When he heard their conversation, he could not help but smile. The father and son were making a plan for Lin Wan to make them fruit tea.

Based on his many years of experience in TV shows, the cameraman knew that Lin Wan was definitely not that easy to deal with.

The cameraman started to look forward to their plan.

In the courtyard, Lin Wan had never fallen asleep from the moment Li Zekai had rushed to inform his father about his brother’s heat stroke. She was just pretending to be asleep.

When Li Yanchen helped Li Zexuan back, she heard them arrive but didn’t move.

Li Zexuan deliberately sat next to Lin Wan. “Dad, I’m still feeling a little dizzy. Help me scoop the grapes out of the well. I want to eat them to cool myself down.”

‘There are grapes in the well?’ Lin Wan quietly listened to the father and son’s conversation.

Li Zexuan sighed. “If only I could have a sip of cool fruit tea now, it would definitely help with my heat stroke.” He purposefully raised his voice.

‘Was he hinting at her to make some fruit tea?’ thought Lin Wan. She pretended not to hear them.

[Xuanxuan is injured. Is Lin Wan’s butt stuck to the chair? She is sleeping like a log. I don’t even want to look.]

[Even if she doesn’t care most of the time, she should at least help when a child is sick. Xuanxuan himself said that he had a heat stroke.]

[Hey, did you bring any medicinal pills? Eat them!]

[He should be fine. I think Xuan looks okay now.]

[F * ck, don’t go outdoors in such hot weather!]

“Heat stroke?” Lin Wan finally said. She turned around and stretched.

Fortunately, she always carried some medicine in her pockets. She handed him a few pills and a bottle of water. “Here, this will help.”

[Did Lin Wan just give him medicinal pills?]

[At least there’s some humanity in her. I should stop badmouthing her.]

[She’s very prepared. This woman really takes care of herself.]

[Xuanxuan, hurry up and eat. What are you waiting for?]

Li Zexuan hesitated. He hadn’t expected a woman who only brough compressed biscuits and sausages with her as food, would carry medicine around. He just wanted some fruit tea.

However, he didn’t want Lin Wan to know he was pretending. So he popped a pill in his mouth and drank the water.

After Li Yanchen pulled the grapes up from the well, he went to the kitchen to get a bowl. With his experience of peeling the loquats last night, he knew that the grapes would have to be peeled for the tea.

He sat down and started peeling the grapes in front of the camera.

Lin Wan reached out and stuffed a peeled grape into her mouth. “Thank you!” she said.

She hadn’t expected Li Yanchen to be this nice. Lin Wan felt that Lin Yanchen wasn’t bad after all. He just needed guidance. But as she reached out a hand to take another grape, Li Yanchen covered the bowl with his hand and walked away.

Lin Wan’s hand froze in mid-air. ‘So, it wasn’t for me?’ She had been overthinking it. ‘How embarrassing!’

[Li Yanchen took the bowl away. So, he was peeling the grapes for baby Xuan? Hahahaha, so sweet.]

[Lin Wan’s face just froze. This time, our baby Xuan’s importance has finally surpassed hers.]

[Congratulations, Xuanxuan!]
