Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 546: The Reserved Wen Qi

In the temporarily reserved small restaurant, the little children clustered together like a group of quails. Their chubby faces shared a unified look of horror, their eyes fixed on the director who was crying miserably in front of the camera.

Director Ming was true to his word; if the netizens discovered the truth, he would immediately slide to his knees and apologize.

Tears spurted from his eyes, his voice choked, and his demeanor sincere.

"There’s really no other way."

Most of the netizens fell silent.

This was the first time they had encountered a director who so readily went down on his knees. In previous variety shows, when some sharp-eyed netizens would spot issues, the directors or staff would even mock the netizens on public platforms.

[He’s crying so pitifully, I feel embarrassed to scold him now]

[Come to think of it, many shows have scripts, not just this one. Let’s not overreact; look, they’ve even made the kids... oops, I mean the uncle cry]

[But he really does cry in an ugly way (can I say this?) (runs away with the pot lid)]

[Help, my eyes! Someone save my eyes!]

Another batch of netizens remained relentless, insisting the director tell the truth.

[You were so sure there wouldn’t be a script, but then there was one. Did something unexpected happen? Tell us the truth, and we might just forgive you]

Tuanzi huddled among the children, covering her eyes with one hand, "Oh, I can’t watch, really can’t watch."

She even complained to the system.

[Miaomiao: The director crying so miserably, he’s probably still screaming inside, how miserable]

[Ancient Martial System: He probably didn’t expect netizens to dig so quickly, it’s a pity people aren’t detectives]

According to the director’s plan, by the time the netizens uncovered the truth, the police investigation would be almost complete, and they would report the results, allowing the show to simply wait for praise and fame.

Unfortunately, man’s plans are outdone by netizens’, and you can never know just how capable some netizens are.

But because of this incident, netizens were no longer interested in what the show would film for the next day and a half, focusing solely on criticizing the production crew. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

That afternoon, the director still occupied the live broadcast room, sliding on his knees to apologize, while the guests got a half-day off to roam around the seaside city.

To appease the guests, the show promised to reimburse a certain range of expenses. With the program showing sincerity, the guests also agreed that they could be filmed while strolling around, as a way to boost the program’s popularity.

"Spending the program’s money to fill our bellies, this is amazing!"

Tuanzi happily patted her belly and ran off hand-in-hand with Tantai Yi.

The responsible Little Heroine bought a bunch of snacks and then led Tantai Yi to watch a movie.

"Senior Brother hasn’t seen a movie before, Miaomiao will treat you!"

Tuanzi initially wanted to wave her hand generously, but unfortunately, both hands were filled with snacks, so she could only tilt her chin from one side to the other.

"Just take whatever you want, Miaomiao will pay!"

Tantai Yi bought a cup of juice, thanked her earnestly, but then turned around in the cinema and the juice ended up in Tuanzi’s stomach.

When the movie was playing, no filming was allowed, so the cameraman took Tuanzi’s suggestion and handed the device to another staff member who didn’t want to watch the movie, and he went in to watch the movie.

[Ahhh, I also want to watch a movie with my girl]

[Unlike others, I want to watch with a certain beauty, and it would be even better if we could hold hands]

[Hey, you in front, wipe your drool]

Tuanzi and her Senior Brother sat side by side, waiting obediently for the movie to start.

A minute later, someone sat down on the left.

Tuanzi instinctively turned her head to look and saw a familiar face.

"Wen Li Brother, why are you here?"

The good-looking young man smiled slightly: "I followed you both in here."

Saying this, he then deliberately furrowed his brows, looking a bit dejected, "Miaomiao is willing to treat Senior Brother to a movie but not willing to watch a movie with me, sigh."

"No, no, definitely not!"

Tuanzi quickly waved her hand, thought for a moment, and then stuffed a small bag of biscuits into Wen Li’s arms.

"Cousin, eat as you like!"

Throughout the movie, Tuanzi was quite busy.

Occasionally she whispered to Tantai Yi to introduce some movie settings, and at other times she took care of Wen Li’s feelings, eagerly sharing her snacks.

This was an obscure movie with very few attendees in this session, so talking quietly didn’t disturb others.

After watching the movie, Tuanzi felt like she had run thirty laps around the neighborhood.

"So tired!"

She walked with her head drooping, all out of energy.

Wen Li felt a bit guilty and was about to pick her up when someone beat him to it.

He froze, lifted his head slightly, and saw the white-haired, gold-eyed man cooly weighing Tuanzi up and then glanced at him faintly.

"Ahem."

Wen Li rubbed his nose, not daring to mess around anymore.

Coming out after the movie, it was already dinner time.

Tuanzi still wanted to thank Wen Qi for the ice cream from last night, "Let’s invite Cousin Wen Qi for dinner together."

Fearing Wen Qi might not want to come, she pushed Wen Li to make the call.

"You invite him!"

Wen Li was silent for several seconds before speaking the truth, "If I invite him, he’s even more unlikely to come, sigh."

Tuanzi: "..."

Tuanzi could only rely on herself, so she got the number, called, and explained the purpose.

The young boss on the other end of the line was silent for a long while before agreeing.

After hanging up, Tuanzi curiously tilted her head, "I feel like Cousin Wen Qi thought a lot at that moment, but Miaomiao couldn’t hear his thoughts."

Wen Li turned around and chuckled quietly.

He could guess his brother’s psychological process; it was probably like this:

Is Cousin inviting me for dinner? Does she really like me? Although we’re just ordinary relatives without much affection, rejecting her might make her sad, right? I’m not like my annoying brother; I won’t make a girl sad, so I better agree.

If Cousin is treating me to a meal, I should bring some gifts. She seems to really like the products in my store, but which ones should I bring? I can’t decide, so let’s bring a bit of each. However, bringing so many might make her misunderstand and think I really like her, right?

This dear older brother of mine is super introverted.

Tuanzi: stare.jpg

The intense gaze made Wen Li turn back.

He nonchalantly said, "He likes spicy fish, let’s order spicy fish later."

"Yes, yes~"

Tuanzi readily agreed.

Tantai Yi glanced more at Wen Li, seemingly thoughtful.

When Wen Qi arrived at the restaurant, she warmly pushed the spicy fish towards Wen Qi.

"Do you like spicy fish, Cousin? We specially ordered it, so eat as much as you can, Cousin."

Silence, another long silence.

Tuanzi puzzledly tilted her little head, "Cousin?"

Wen Qi picked up his chopsticks and took a piece.

Wen Li, on the side, dubbed silently.

I don’t like spicy fish, but if I tell the truth, will Cousin be sad? It’s not entirely her fault; she wants to know me, and I haven’t given her the chance. But the taste of spicy fish is really strange, to endure or not to endure, that is the question.

After finishing the silent dubbing, Wen Li couldn’t hold back anymore and laughed out loud.

An intense glare swept over, and Wen Qi gritted his teeth, "Your doing?"

Wen Li innocently tilted his head.

Wen Qi looked at him with utter disdain.

Cousin tilts her head and looks cute; annoying brother does it, and it’s just pretentious.
