Chapter 155: Parenting Show 7: A Cut Above

【It's finally airing! Takeout is ready~】

【It really is a boat ride, wait, the person fishing over there, why do they look so familiar?】

【I think so too... but it's too far, let's see when we get closer】

【OMG! It's Sister Zhou from the romance show!】

【Ming Siwen is ecstatic (not)】

【Just a temporary partner, don't drag my Sister Ming into this!】

【"Wen Wan CP" will never bow down!】

【Wen Gu Zhixin refuses to accept, our name is longer!】

【How about our CP name is "Asipilin" (Aspirin) (dog head)】

【It's Aspirin! Medical student is furious】

【Zhou Siwan Xiang (crossed out) Zhou Si Ye Xiang (confirmed)】

【Great literary scholar!!!】

【Zhou 0 Wan】

【Nonsense! It's Lin Wei Shou Ming! My Sister Zhou's hand holding the paintbrush is definitely a 1!】

【Folks, you're watching a kid show now, not a romance show, restrain yourselves... Lastly, I ship mutual top/bottom】

【Dying of laughter, when they were CP with Sister Ming on the romance show before, you guys were scolding Sister Zhou, now that Gu Yunfei is here, you can't wait for Sister Ming and Sister Zhou to get married on the spot】

Seeing the woman fishing by the dock, not only were the audience shocked, but the guests were also surprised. Clearly, they had all watched 《Super High-Speed Heartbeat》 and knew Zhou Linwan.

"Is that..." Qin Qingshang was holding Tao Aiqin and looking at the scenery on the sea. She shifted her body and leaned towards Tao Qiuyun: "I'm not mistaken, right? Zhou Linwan is actually here?"

Tao Qiuyun thought for a moment and guessed, "Mengmeng drew the profession of a painter, didn't she? Miss Zhou's main profession is a painter, maybe the director team invited her as an expert."

After everyone got ashore, the person in the straw hat fishing nearby—Zhou Linwan—stood up and walked over slowly. Her gaze swept over the people in front of her, finally landing on Ming Siwen. She opened her mouth and asked, "Are you here for tourism?"

Everyone knew the plot was starting, so they looked at each other and finally decided to let Ming Siwen answer.

"I want to settle down here. These few are friends I met on the boat. They also want to stay here for a while." Ming Siwen used the lines they had discussed earlier, a smile on her face: "Look, it's not easy for me as a single mother with a child. Could this lady please give me a brief introduction to this place? It would also help my daughter and me make a living."

Zhou Linwan's eyes were deep and serious as she stared at Ming Siwen without answering. Her expression was stern, and her makeup was deliberately done to make her look haggard and gloomy. Her glasses also hid the light in her eyes, making her overall demeanor even heavier. When she wasn't smiling, she really made people feel a bit uneasy...

Tao Aiqin saw Zhou Linwan's serious face and, with a quick turn of thought, knew the director wanted to create a scary atmosphere. She turned to look at the other children, and their expressions were indeed a little scared. Meng Huashi, who was directly facing Zhou Linwan, had already shrunk into Ming Siwen's arms, frightened.

She blinked, like a newborn kitten unaware of the world's dangers. She twisted her body, jumped down from Qin Qingshang's arms, and then bounced over to Zhou Linwan, tugging at her pants: "Fishing Auntie, I know you. Do you like Auntie Ming?"

Hearing this, Zhou Linwan hadn't even processed the "Fishing Auntie" part when she heard the child voice her inner thoughts. She wasn't a professional actress and certainly couldn't manage her expressions.

Her little secret being brought up made her feel a bit awkward. Her cheeks flushed. Even though her makeup provided some cover, her ears turned completely red. She stammered, "N-no!"

"Ah..." The little cat was a bit disappointed, "So you don't like Auntie Ming!"

"It's not that I don't like her, it's just," Zhou Linwan wanted to explain but didn't know where to start. She felt a bit flustered and avoided Ming Siwen's gaze: "It's just, I..."

Why would someone throw such a direct ball?! How am I supposed to catch this?

Help me out, Director! When you hired me, you didn't say I'd encounter this kind of situation. I'm still in the secret crush stage. This is like skipping the tutorial and going straight to fighting the Boss!

"Don't bring up off-screen information anymore," Dai Congxu's voice sounded in Zhou Linwan's earpiece: "Xiaowan, just follow the script. No need to create atmosphere anymore."

If they kept creating atmosphere, this girl's face would probably give out.

Lu Xiaokui took a sip of sugar-free cola and happily munched on melon seeds...

My judgment is so good. I thought they had the best chemistry back on the romance show. Now it seems my intuition was right. No wonder I can be a romance show director!

"Just what?" Kong Fangshu, standing beside Ming Siwen, was also a bit curious and couldn't help but ask.

"Let me explain," Ming Siwen helped her out and also rounded out the plot herself: "Linwan, you abandoned your wife and daughter back then, went out alone to make a living, and didn't even send a single letter. I didn't want to stay in that sad place anymore, so I wanted to go out to sea and find a new home. I didn't expect to meet you here, of all places. You didn't dare and weren't willing to see our mother and daughter, so you treated us coldly. Isn't that right?"

Everyone was shocked.

Teacher Ming, why does your dialogue sound so much like an ancient script! Is this a side effect of just finishing a martial arts movie? What "Isn't that right?" What era are you living in?

Zhou Linwan opened her mouth, unsure how to respond for a moment.

Dai Congxu: "...Agree to her plot setting."

It's okay, it's just slightly deviated from the expectation. Anyway, their show is all about letting the guests improvise... As if! You can't just improvise by latching onto our NPC the moment you arrive, and even add lines for yourself!

No wonder you won Best Actress.

"Yes." Since the director had spoken, Zhou Linwan could only bite the bullet and admit it. She prepared to push forward with the process she had prepared. She opened her mouth and said, "Since you want to settle down here, as long as you help me complete three tasks..."

"Sister Zhou," Qin Qingshang stepped forward, looking at her with disapproval: "Since you are Teacher Ming's wife, how can you still make demands on Teacher Ming and ask her to do things for you? Isn't that too much?"

"Exactly, exactly," The little cat also nodded, agreeing strongly with what she said, "Mama is right."

"What do you know?" Tao Qiuyun couldn't help but laugh. She reached out and picked up the little one who was running around: "Don't get lost, we'll worry."

The cat rubbed against her: "Qinqin is smart, she won't get lost~"

The family of three was enjoying themselves, while the other guests were quite shocked...

You're really taking advantage of this identity and pushing your luck!

Variety shows can be played like this? Is this the new era of high-freedom variety shows? I love it, I love it!

Zhou Linwan was helpless. She knew her identity shouldn't be too close to the guests, so she casually argued, "Ex-wife."

"Wrong!" Ming Siwen's voice rose, directing and acting herself: "We are just separated, not divorced yet. If you want to divorce me, get on the boat with me now and go back to the mainland. We'll go through the procedures at the Civil Affairs Bureau."

Zhou Linwan: "...Just pretend I'm dead."

"Linwan," Ming Siwen looked a bit pained, "You weren't like this before."

【What variety show am I watching?】

【Wrong set? What kind of melodrama is this?】

【Unexpectedly, the highlight of this show is Ming Siwen coming to save the day】

【Hahahaha, Wei Pingsi, your image collapse is wonderful!】

【Yes, Sister Ming, Sister Zhou, you weren't like this on the romance show next door】

【They even provide after-sales service, worthy of Asipilin】

The director in her earpiece was giving new ideas. Zhou Linwan received the new command, turned around, and sighed: "Alright, I'll take you to where you can stay, but my house is very small..."

"Thank you, Sister Zhou," Qin Qingshang knew what she was going to say, so she quickly cut her off, her face sincere: "We are all very grateful to you and won't mind your house being small."

"Right," Ming Siwen and Qin Qingshang had developed a great rapport through their time together. She stepped forward, put Meng Huashi into Zhou Linwan's arms, and said with a smile, "Linwan, look, this is our child. Isn't she adorable?"

Meng Huashi: "?"

Zhou Linwan: "...Is this our child?!"

Dai Congxu: "..." These two actresses seem a bit off.

The other guides: "..." We haven't even appeared yet!

For the five professions in the variety show, the director team had arranged guides for each. Zhou Linwan, also a painter, was guiding Meng Huashi, who drew the painter profession. The guides for the other professions were still waiting in the back.

"Don't be led by the nose, Xiaowan, resist! Don't agree!" Dai Congxu quickly reminded her.

"Siwen." Zhou Linwan held Meng Huashi and decided to just go with it. Even if she couldn't act, couldn't she at least talk nonsense?

"When I left, we didn't have a child yet."

Everyone: "..." Her words were truly vicious.

"Yes," Ming Siwen was used to it. How many strange actors had she encountered while acting? Those who couldn't remember their lines, those who counted one, two, three, four, and those who deliberately changed lines to make themselves look good. These people, she'd take them on one by one: "You once promised me we would have a child. Later, you abandoned me and left, so I adopted one and treated her as our child. Everyone thought I was crazy, but even if I was crazy, I still thought of you and missed you. And now? You look at our mother and daughter, Linwan, tell me, doesn't your conscience hurt?!"

The woman's expression was sorrowful, yet her eyes showed stubborn persistence. Her voice was firm and powerful, carrying a hint of longing, like a white rose swayed by the wind, seemingly fragile and delicate, but with thorns.

Zhou Linwan shut up. She held the child and walked forward without saying a word.

【Hahahaha, save me, is this the Film Empress's acting skills?】

【Sister Zhou : Are you sick?!】

【First watching Sister Qin's acting at the police station, now watching Sister Ming's improvisation on the kid show. C-ent has struck gold with you two】

【The one whose conscience should hurt isn't Sister Zhou, but you, Ming Siwen! Bullying an ordinary person like this is too much hahahaha】

【Zhou Linwan doesn't even dare to speak anymore】

【Actress bullies painter with acting, painter bullies actress with paintbrush】

【Elaborate on paintbrush (ears perked)】

【? Elaborate on bullying】

【Mengmeng drawing the painter profession is truly fate!】

The comments section burst into laughter, completely losing the tense and exciting atmosphere from before. Dai Congxu lay back on his chair, feeling a bit tired, and said to Lu Xiaokui beside him, "You told me to pay attention to Qin Qingshang. I think you misjudged. The one I need to pay attention to is Ming Siwen!"

"Good heavens," Lu Xiaokui put down the melon seeds in his hand, slapped the table, and said, "After not seeing them for so long, these two have swapped positions. Qin Qingshang has become the support, while Ming Siwen has turned into the main damage dealer."

Dai Congxu ignored his rambling, picked up the mic, and opened the all-channel broadcast: "Listen up, from now on, focus on Ming Siwen. Don't let her set the pace. Also..."

He paused, gritting his teeth: "The other four professional guides on standby, the previous method won't work. Activate Plan B. Intercept them halfway!"

"Received" x4
