Chapter 222: He Has Almost Collapsed Mentally. I Just Had a Long Talk with Him at Noon

Tao Jingyuan had only intended to say a few words, but she had not expected so many people to inquire.

[Lawyer Tao, isn’t it only right for a debtor to pay a debt? It seems it has nothing to do with the debtor’s son. But, if the father is a slacker, then shouldn’t the son pay his father’s debt? Why can’t the son pay it back?]

[I thought I had an older brother. I have no right to inherit my parents’ house and all the assets belong to my son. It turns out that my parents wrote it in their will that all their assets would belong to my son. I can’t get a share. Please clarify. Thank you, Lavvyer Tao.]

[I was beaten up by my dad when I was young. After my dad divorced my mom, my dad never gave me any child support. Why do I have to support him now?]

Tao Jingyuan tried her best to answer every question, but because the comments on the bullet screen passed too fast, there were some that she missed.

After half an hour of interaction, she found that many people didn’t understand the law, and she was more determined to do a Public Law live broadcast.

At Wheatley’s house, the family of three was playing Legos in the courtyard.

At half past one in the afternoon, the announcement came.

Everyone, please change into your sportswear. We will gather at the field at two in the afternoon.”

Everyone looked at the big horn on the pole from where the announcement sounded.

“Sportswear?” Back at the Li family, Li Yanchen, who had just had a taste of ginger milk, spat out the words.

“Please don’t tell me there’s another competition,” Li Zexuan muttered.

“It must be. At least it’s not a talent show.” Lin Wan already felt tired when she heard the word “Sportswear”. There was bound to be some extensive physical activities.

In the first episode, she had won somehow. But after that, she hadn’t been very forthcoming for physically draining activities.

However, the Festival Group required everyone to wear sportswear, including children. The children could participate together. ‘Was it another name-tearing competition again?’ everyone wondered.

The other families started discussing the mission. Xia MO directly visited the Li family’s house.

“Have you guys guessed what we’re going to compete in?” Xia MO asked.

Lin Wan shook her head. “It’s definitely not a talent show. If it was, they wouldn’t urge us to wear sportswear.”

“It’s some physical activity again, isn’t it? My old Xiao has almost collapsed mentally. I just had a long talk with him at noon to make him feel better.” Xia MO sighed.

“Brother Xiao is so concerned.”

“He looks like he doesn’t care, but he secretly does. We took a walk this afternoon. He was feeling bad because he thinks he embarrassed our family.” Xia MO didn’t care if he lost, but it seemed Xiao Tianlin did care a lot about things like that. He felt pressured.

“Li Yanchen, why don’t you give in to Old Xiao this time?” Xia MO had an idea. It was a mission anyway.

Li Yanchen had not placed much importance on the match before. However, with Luo Xi around, he, at least, wanted to try his best before giving in.

‘What if it is a team competition?’ Li Yanchen hesitated.

‘Mr. Li, you’re not allowed to win this time,” Lin Wan said. “Not only that, but you also have to help Brother Xiao win.”

“Thank you,” said Xia Mo.

Li Yanchen was speechless.

It was almost two. The staff had already arrived at the scene. The five families arrived on time as well.

A large box was next to the staff. Five cameras were set up in five different directions.

“Everyone, please form two rows,” said the Director.

Everyone dispersed and lined up.

“I’m sure you’ve already guessed it. There’s still a competition in the afternoon. I’ve seen that everyone is wearing sportswear. That’s great! We will now read out the mission and rules,” said the Director, keeping them in suspense. [I’m going to start cursing. Do they have to keep us in suspense like this?] [Five shots, 360 degrees, no dead angle.]

[The Festival Group is assigning tasks at two in the afternoon. The Sweet Little

Circle won’t have time to go live today.]

[Everyone, focus on the main thing. It’s sportswear, not a basketball jersey. This means that we guessed wrong this morning. The Festival Group did not listen to our request for a basketball match.]

[Not everyone has a basketball jersey, right? “Sportswear” could mean the

same thing.]

[Alright. Don’t keep us hanging. Hurry and tell us what the mission is.]

A staff member took the microphone. “Today’s task is a tug-of-war. For the sake of fairness, it will not be based on family. It will be based on the number of people.”

Xiao Tianlin’s confidence rose again after hearing this. Among the five fathers of the families, he and Zheng Kuo were the heaviest. It would definitely count as an advantage. It was his turn to show off.

[Did you guys notice Magician Xiao? He looked constipated when they gathered, but now he looks happy.]

[Hahaha.]

[Magician Xiao must be thinking that it’s finally his turn to show off.]

[That’s fair.]

After the rules were announced, everyone began to form teams. Zheng Kuo and Xiao Tianlin were assigned to two teams as expected and became the team leaders. The others were assigned to the teams behind them according to their body size.

In the end, Zheng Kuo, Tao Jingyuan, Li Yanchen, Lin Wan, Luo Xi, Li Zekai, Feifei, and Jian Jia were put in a group, while Xiao Tianlin, Xia MO, Michael, Nannan, Xiao Yi, Li Zexuan and Wheatley created another group.

Xiao Tianlin looked at the lineup. Although there was one less person, Michael’s muscle could be useful in this tug-of-war. In Zheng Kuo’s group, Feifei could be ignored.

Xia MO was also very confident. Moreover, Li Yanchen had promised to let Xiao Tianlin win. If Li Yanchen used a little less strength, their group would definitely win.

[It’s still unfair. Xiao Tianlin’s team is missing an adult and a child.]

[Didn’t you notice that the children in Xiao Tinalin’s group are older than in

Zhen Kuo’s team? Li Zekai and Feifei are too small to compete properly in Zheng Kuo’s group.]

[Xuanxuan isn’t in the same group as his parents. Why was he set apart?]

[Mr. Li and Luo Xi are way too skinny.]

[Xuanxuan is very happy. He ran over to the other side so fast when his name was called.]

[Good luck, Magician Xiao!]

The members of each team stood behind their captains to plan their strategy.

The two teams were lined up from tall to short. Xiao Tianlin’s team was led by Michael at the front. Xiao Tianlin was the heaviest, so he took his place at the rear.

In Zheng Kuo’s line, Luo Xi was at the front, and Zheng Kuo was at the back.

[Team Xiao Tianlin knows they’ve won just by looking at this formation.]

[The rules of a tug-of-war: the one with the greatest strength will be placed first, and the one with the heaviest weight will be placed last. The middle will be arranged from tall to short. In addition, the correct posture in the tug-of-war will increase the chances of winning.]

Luo Xi glanced at Michael, who was at the very front. He had no advantage in terms of size.

The match began, and the two captains stepped on the ground. Everyone used all their strength. The red flag tied in the middle of the rope swayed left and right.

[The red flag is heading toward Xiao Tianlin’s team.]

[Xuanxuan, go for it!]

[Brother Luo Xi, you can’t lose. His face is red. He is working very hard.]

[Sister Wan, you will definitely win. Sister Wan, stay calm.]

[What should I do? Both teams have people I like. I don’t know who to cheer for.]

[Me too! I wish for Lin Wan and Mr. Li to win, but I also want Xuanxuan to win.]

[I only want brother Luo Xi to win. Brother, don’t break your teeth from grinding them so hard!]

They only heard Xiao Tianlin’s roar, and the rope moved a little more. Zheng Kuo’s team was about to lose.

Zheng Kuo didn’t dare speak toward the end, afraid that he would break his focus.

“Everyone, lower your weight!” Luo Xi said loudly.

All the members of Zheng Kuo’s team had their center of gravity lowered. Although they had stabilized the current situation, the rope didn’t move toward them at all..
