Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 545: Tears Gushing Out
The guests didn’t stop her, but the residents of the same building realized what was happening and, without hesitation, blocked her way, speaking in an unfriendly manner.
"Mrs. Du, if I’m not mistaken, you were the one who said you heard footsteps first, causing everyone to be suspicious, and then others started hearing sounds one after another." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
"Yeah, if it weren’t for you spreading it everywhere, no one would have known."
"I told you, why do you go around telling everyone? When someone came to check out the apartment, you even sneakily pulled them aside to spread rumors, claiming you were doing a good deed. Are you the one trying to buy the house?"
They’re all neighbors, living together for so many years, and they understand each other’s basic situations.
Despite Mrs. Du being so familiar with the neighbors and knowing the whole community well, in truth, her family has only rented a place in Sanjiang Garden, though they’ve rented for quite a few years. The house is a necessity for them. But a suitable location and comfortable relationships are rare finds.
Upon careful consideration, what could be more suitable for their family than a cheap house in Sanjiang Garden?
If it were someone from the show saying this, Mrs. Du could still argue a bit, but it was a neighbor speaking, and a guilty Mrs. Du lost her usual eloquence.
At this point, what does everyone not understand?
The livestream chat was immediately flooded with messages condemning Mrs. Du.
Mrs. Du quickly went downstairs in embarrassment, while the other neighbors angrily spread the word to others.
Only the program crew and the self-employed individual were left in the corridor.
Director Ming proactively asked, "Should we call the police?"
The self-employed individual snapped out of his thoughts, considered it, and shook his head.
"She won’t have an easy time from now on. The neighbors’ gossip can sometimes be more effective than some punishments. Maybe her family will move out."
[She got off too easy]
[People like that should be locked up!]
[Come on, come on, she was just spreading rumors, but you all act like you want a death sentence]
[This person is too weak, call the police]
[Uh, I think he’s doing it for himself. Just think about it, his brother doesn’t care. If he finds out it was Mrs. Du stirring things up, he might even want her to pay compensation. Then it’ll be him running around again, and he won’t get a penny.]
[Now that you mention it, this approach punishes Mrs. Du, and he can breathe a sigh of relief]
Director Ming hadn’t reacted yet. Seeing the self-employed individual with a worried look, he tried to cheer him up, "After today, there won’t be any more rumors, and the house will be easier to sell."
The self-employed individual smiled wryly, "As long as my brother doesn’t agree, this house won’t sell easily."
"Uh..." Director Ming was left speechless.
A few kids who had been whispering together wrinkled their noses upon hearing this brief conversation.
"His brother isn’t a good brother."
Tuanzi puffed up her cheeks, "A good brother wouldn’t make things difficult for his younger sibling."
Xu Huan immediately puffed out his chest proudly; he’s never made things difficult for his brother, being a good brother!
Xu Shuo muttered, "Now that you mention it, my brother is actually quite good, except when he sneaks away when mom is angry, leaving me to face the storm alone. Except for that time in home economics class when we made tea eggs using dad’s good tea leaves and got caught, he said all the tea eggs went into my stomach..."
He seemed intent on going on and on, and gradually began revealing things that Boss Xu wasn’t aware of.
Seeing his dear father’s sharp gaze, Xu Huan leapt forward and covered his brother’s mouth with his hand.
The quick-witted boy tried to divert his father’s attention and turned back to the self-employed individual, saying, "Uncle, if you ask me, just don’t mind your brother’s business. You’re not his only relative in the country..."
Once the talkative boy started talking, he spoke nonstop, giving no chance for interruption.
Next to him, Tuanzi instinctively started counting, trying to see how many words Xu Huan said in one breath.
"You treat him as a brother, but he doesn’t treat you as a sibling, thinking whatever you do is only right. This kind of person should be left alone. Don’t be afraid of him scolding you, just don’t answer his calls or block him. Don’t be afraid of him hitting you; you’re in two different countries. If he gets so mad he flies back to hassle you, just let him handle the house matters himself..."
The self-employed individual felt dizzy listening, and without a chance to speak, his thoughts followed the other’s words. Unknowingly, he felt Xu Huan made sense, and the accumulated resentment burst forth, almost instinctively taking out his phone to send a message, then blocking the person in one go.
Once he finished, he came to his senses.
"I, how did I..."
Director Ming, standing nearby, saw it all.
Seeing this, he teasingly suggested, "If you feel it’s not appropriate, you can just remove him from the blacklist, can’t you?"
The self-employed individual didn’t move, genuinely not wanting to take the person off the blacklist. He could even imagine what his elder brother would say.
Hearing those words would only make one’s blood pressure spike.
[Haha, his fingers are more honest; once blocked, he’s reluctant to move]
[It’s about time he did this, Xu Huan is right. You treat him as a brother, he doesn’t treat you as a sibling. Emotion requires effort from both sides, in love or family; one-sided giving can easily be exhausting]
The self-employed individual changed the topic, "Anyway, thank you all for coming all this way for this matter. I’ll support your show."
Director Ming chuckled and shook hands with him. Once they let go, Director Ming realized, "Is this a case solved? So what are we filming for the next day and a half?"
All the major guests, except Tantai Yi, exchanged glances.
As for the minor guests, Tuanzi was standing on her tiptoes, giving Xu Huan a shoulder massage.
She admired him greatly, "Xu Huan-ge, you just spoke over a hundred words in one breath, nearly four hundred words in a minute, that’s incredible, isn’t it?"
Tuanzi tried it discreetly and ended up dizzy, red-faced, and tongue-tied.
Zuo Qiu also looked at him with admiration.
Xu Huan was even more proud, "Well, this also requires training. If you want to learn..."
"I can teach you!"
Xu Shuo immediately pushed his older brother aside, "I can say just as much, and I’m fat, so I have a large lung capacity!"
[Uh, does being fat have anything to do with lung capacity]
[Regardless if it does or not, he thinks it does, so it does, he can still fool a few kids]
[Hasn’t the topic shifted now? The focus now is on how the programme continues]
[I now believe there’s no script; if there was one, the crew could control the pace, not end up in chaos like now, hahaha]
[No script? That’s impossible; someone already dug up that the buried watch in the abandoned factory was a limited edition from last year]
The chat instantly surged.
The person in charge of monitoring the livestream quickly found Director Ming and informed him of this harsh truth.
The problem Director Ming faced shifted from how to continue this episode to how to appease the furious or gossiping netizens.
Tears instantly gushed out!
