The Useless Stepmom Brings Her Kids to Reality TV Shows to Photograph Them

180 Do We Have the Final Say on Whether We Want to Go Back or Not?

“Wanwan, you said that you didn’t want to have children because of your parents and how they raised you. You don’t even have to give birth now. It’s great to be a mother without pain. Your three children already sound very amiable,” said Yang Ruoxi.

Lin Wan patted her best friend’s head. “Yang Ruoxi, are you making fun of me? When I said I didn’t want children, I wasn’t wishing for three stepsons.”

Although Lin Wan was talking about how annoying her stepsons were, the smile on her face betrayed her true emotions. Especially when she mentioned Li Yanchen, her eyes sparkled.

Yang Ruoxi leaned on Lin Wan’s shoulder. “Wanwan, you were my only concern in that world. Now that I’ve met you in this world, I don’t want to go back.”

“Do we have the final say on whether we want to go back or not?” Lin Wan fell into a deep thought.

Soon, she straightened up, as if she had discovered a new idea. “I just remembered something. I have been feeling like I am beginning to forget everything about our original world.”

“Me too. I basically forget a year’s event every other week.” Yang Ruoxi even carried a palm-sized diary with her to record everything.

“Does it mean that we are integrating into this world? Will we forget everything about the other world?” asked Lin Wan.

Yang Ruoxi flipped through the diary for Lin Wan to see.

Lin Wan took a deep breath. “We did all those things? I forgot all about it!”

The two of them picked up a stone and started scribbling on the ground, looking for clues.

In the cemetery’s duty room, Uncle Yang and Li Yanchen talked.

Li Yanchen looked at the time every few minutes. After enduring for an hour, the man finally could not sit still any longer.

“Uncle Yang, I’m going out for a walk,” he said.

“I’ll ask my old colleague to send two more dishes over. We can have lunch here.” Uncle Yang followed him out.

“I’ll ask Wanwan and Yang Ruoxi.”

Li Yanchen walked around the foot of the mountain aimlessly after walking out of the office.

After another half an hour, he still did not see Lin Wan. He gave her a call. When she told him where she was, he quickened his pace and looked for her.

Lin Wan and Yang Ruoxi chatted for more than an hour and added each other on WeChat.

At the Royal Water Bay, Sun Mingtao came to find Li Zexuan to have lunch with. Lu Wenqian was waiting at the entrance of the residential area.

Li Zexuan had taken his younger brothers to an art exhibition early in the morning. They decided to return home only after learning that their father and Lin Wan had gone out.

Sun Mingtao and Auntie Huang were talking in the courtyard.

“Grandma Huang, is Xuanxuan also so cold at home? We don’t even speak more than two sentences in a day at school. I wanted to meet with him today, but it took me a long time to decide whether to come here or not,” Sun Mingtao said with a bitter face.

Auntie Huang chuckled. “He doesn’t talk much. You are the only friend Xuanxuan has ever brought home. Believe me, he cares about you.”

“Grandma Huang, I will add your number to my contacts. Please give me a call next time Xuanxuan is home. I will come and meet him.” Sun Mingtao narrowed his eyes.

“You little brat! Are you trying to get into my good books?” laughed Auntie Huang. “Without Xuanxuan’s explicit permission, I can’t let you inside the house even if you come here.”

Li Zexuan, who had reached the door, heard the conversation in the courtyard.

“Sun Mingtao, you’re still trying to bribe Grandma Huang?” said Li Zexuan. “She will never give in. She is my Grandma Huang.”

“I was just joking, superstar!” said Sun Mingtao. “I sent you so many messages, but you didn’t even reply to one. You wouldn’t even pick up my calls. As your best friend, I was really worried.” Sun Mingtao moved to Li Zexuan’s side. If I didn’t call you continuously last night, would you have picked up?”

Li Zexuan took off his sunglasses and hat. “I told you already. I am not going.”

Sun Mingtao was at a loss for words. Lu Wenqian had made an appointment to go to Mount Huang and asked Sun Mingtao to bring Li Zexuan along.

When the variety show was about to end, Sun Mingtao had sent a message to Li Zexuan, asking him if he wanted to go climb Mount Huang with them. Li Zexuan had flatly refused.

Sun Mingtao didn’t give up. He tried to persuade Li Zexuan by sending him beautiful pictures of Mount Huang. But Li Zexuan had ignored him completely. He wouldn’t even pick up his calls.

“Xuanxuan, you’re different this summer. Didn’t you always hang out with us when you didn’t have anything to do? ” Sun Mingtao felt that Li Zexuan was deliberately trying to distance himself from them. “Even if we didn’t go traveling, we used to hang out and have meals together every three or five days in the summer break. School is about to start, and we didn’t meet even once this summer!”

“I have a lot of things to do,” said Li Zexuan. “Li Zexin will be in his third-year next semester. He needs me to tutor him. He is an idiot.”

Li Zexin and Li Zekai had bought a box of markers from a stationery store on the commercial street of the community, so they were a little late.

Before they even entered, Li Zekai shouted, “Brother, I bought fake water.” After he entered through the door, he saw Sun Mingtao. “Brother Mingtao, what are you doing here?” He was familiar with his brother’s friend because he had seen him around during summer holidays.

“Brother Mingtao.” Li Zexin greeted him.

Sun Mingtao gave the two younger brothers a gift each that he had bought for them.

Seeing his two brothers surround Sun Mingtao from each side, Li Zexuan scowled. “Stop flattering them,” he said. “You two, go and play by yourselves for a while. Sun Mingtao came looking for me.”

“Grandma Huang, do you still have green bean soup? Give us two bowls.” Li Zexuan sent Auntie Huang away as well.

“Now, tell me. What do you want?” Li Zexuan sat down.

“You are smart. I will treat you to lunch. Also, Lu Wenqian got Ye Qiu’s autograph. I didn’t expect a celebrity to chase after a celebrity,” Sun Mingtao whispered into Li Zexuan’s ear.

Ye Qiu was Li Zexuan’s idol. Ye Qiu was also very cold and aloof most of the time. His autographed photos or posters were never directly sold. Instead, they were given out to loyal fans. Sometimes, the fans were chosen at random

Even though Li Zexuan was in the same industry and a loyal fan, he had never managed to win an autographed photo or poster.

Li Zexuan was pleasantly surprised to hear that Lu Wenqian had gotten it, but his face quickly darkened. He was well aware of Lu Wenqian’s feelings for him, so he didn’t dare accept anything she gave him.

“I also got one,” Li Zexuan lied.

“Really? What a coincidence!” Sun Mingtao originally wanted to use the autographed photo to convince Li Zexuan to come with them, but he was disappointed to hear that he already had an autographed photo.

“Yes, it should be mailed out soon.”

“Maybe the two of you won a different prize. Even if it’s the same, it’s fine. You like Ye Qiu so much, and Lu Wenqian has good intentions. Just accept it.” Sun Mingtao tried to persuade him anyway.

“There’s really no need for that. Just go home after drinking the green bean soup. I have to pack. I’m going to country H with my father tomorrow. I’ll make plans with you when I return,” said Li Zexuan.

After he had returned from the first episode of “We Are Also Very Ordinary”, Li Zexuan noticed that Sun Mingtao was always trying to lump him and Lu Wenqian together. He had even badmouthed Lin Wan to try to make him turn against her. Therefore, whenever Sun Mingtao visited, Li Zexuan was on his guard.
