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

48 Curiosity Killed the Cat

Li Zekai had stopped drinking milk powder when he was three years old. He didn’t even like milk.

‘Then why is he going to other people’s houses asking for milk? Does he want to ruin my image as his father?’ Li Yanchen wondered.

Li Yanchen wondered how much he had neglected his son. He was an owner of a business worth hundreds of millions, and yet he couldn’t even buy a can of milk powder for his youngest son. He wondered if he was too indifferent toward his sons. Lin Wan was no different. ‘Why is she fooling around now?’

When Lin Wan and Li Zekai returned home, they acted as if they didn’t even see Li Yanchen. The two sneaked into the kitchen. Lin Wan took out a storage bag and found a thin piece of bamboo. She scraped the milk powder off the soles of her shoes into the bag. She would be back in two days to send it for testing.

“Kid, where did you go?”

“Oh, dad! I’m… doing an experiment.” Li Zekai didn’t even look at his father. He held his little yellow cup tightly.

[The Cub’s answer is so perfunctory. Can’t wait to find water to make milk powder?]

[Qi Zhi, please pay the advertising fee.]

[Hahahaha, how much did Qi Zhi pay? I, Hui Zhi, am willing to pay double.]

[Li Zekai’s reply is so brisk. Li Yanchen is being ignored.]

[He deserves it. He didn’t even care about the three children.]

[Why does the Cub keep following Lin Wan? They didn’t have so many conflicts from the beginning, but still, it seems like they are getting along better than before. I don’t understand.]

[I realized that Lin Wan can’t do any work. If a child asks her for food, she will definitely rush to other people’s houses.]

[Xuanxuan, why are you still folding paper? Aren’t your hands tired?]

“Brother, stop folding them. Let’s go and see what Li Zekai is up to. He’s being so mysterious.” Usually, his younger brother ran to him to play with him, but today Li Zekai held something tightly in his hands and rushed to the kitchen.

It was as if Li Zexuan didn’t even hear him. He was still fiddling with the paper in his hands. It was almost tearing apart from being folded and unfolded many times.

Li Zexuan didn’t want to make any art pieces, he just wanted to kill time.

“Brother, will Ms. Lin secretly make something delicious for Jiejie? I saw something in Jiejie’s hand. Don’t you want to drink fruit tea?” Li Zexin whispered.

“Fruit tea?” Li Zexuan carried the starry paper and strode into the courtyard. Lin Wan would definitely do something like eating all the cake for herself. When he had just woken up, Li Yanchen had given him a piece of cake and said that Lin Wan had brought it back specifically for him.

Li Yanchen had been sitting in the courtyard. But now, he was so curious he couldn’t sit still any longer.

[They’re all gone. I’m so lonely.]

[Director, can’t our distinguished VIP request for an additional scene? I want to see them!]

[I don’t want to look at the big banyan tree.]

[Administrator: the staff is asking for the opinions of the parties involved. Please wait a moment.]

[Okay! Please do it in five minutes.]

[I’m also very curious to see what secret Lin Wan and Li Zekai are cooking up.]

[We’re done for. We’re done for! Did we get deceived? Didn’t we ask Lin Wan to quit crowdfunding? Why does everyone want to see her suddenly?]

[Who wants to see her? iIf Xuanxuan is still in the stream, I won’t even look at Lin Wan.]

[Oh? is that so?]

[I bet Lin Wan went into the kitchen to make some tea with the milk powder. She only knows how to make tea.]

When Li Zexuan and the others walked into the kitchen, Lin Wan was sitting on a small crawling board. She was holding a shoe in her hand and was poking at the sole of the shoe with a bamboo stick.

The roads in the village were muddy. Li Zexuan felt disgusted when he saw the mud that Lin Wan had scraped off.

“What are you guys doing? Are you collecting the sh * t on the soles of your shoes?” Li Zexin covered his nose.

If her stepsons had not reacted this way, Lin Wan would not have realized that the soles of her shoes were this disgusting. She let out a swear word.

“It’s no wonder she ran in so hurriedly. She stepped on sh * t. Just throw them away. I will buy you a new pair of shoes.”

Lin Wan threw her shoes into the plastic bag. This was Grandma Xiang’s latest design and her most valuable pair of shoes. But now, these shoes were stinky. Lin Wan felt terrible.

She casually picked up Li Yanchen’s slippers that he used for his bath. Her size 36 feet looked too small in the size 43 slippers. She wanted to wear the slippers to the henhouse and walk around to disgust Li Yanchen. He knew her well. Just as she was about to walk to the henhouse, he pulled her back.

“Wow, what a dramatic reaction. Walking around in the shoes is fine, as long as you don’t take it off and scrape things off of it in the kitchen!” Li Zexin had no filter.

Li Zekai also felt uncomfortable at his brother’s words. However, Lin Wan had told him that they had no evidence of sleeping pills in the milk powder, so she couldn’t tell anyone.

“This is all very interesting.” Li Yanchen had been so curious for nothing. Curiosity had indeed killed the cat. ‘Why am I even here?’ he wondered.

He fanned his nose with a hand and pulled Lin Wan out of the kitchen into the courtyard.

In the live broadcast room, the family reappeared.

Li Zekai, who had previously pretended to want the milk powder, had lost interest in it because of his brothers and their disgusting words.

“You guys are so annoying.” The little boy stomped his feet. The milk powder under Lin Wan’s shoes was obtained through a battle of wit and courage, yet it was being dismissed in such a way.

[They’re out! What are they doing?]

[Maybe they just wanted a cup of tea. Aren’t you all paying just too much attention to this?]

In the program’s logistics, the staff who were just about to move the camera saw Li Zekai with the milk powder in his cup. If the milk powder really had a problem, would Xu Xiaoxiao really give it to another child?

At Wheatley’s house, Nannan talked to Wheatley in front of the camera. “What will Wheatley buy for us?” she asked jokingly.

Wheatley raised her chin. “The adults and the children go shopping separately at night. The director probably wanted us to give the adults a surprise. I don’t want to ruin it.”

“You’re so smart! I can’t get anything out of you now, can I?” Nannan touched Wheatley’s little nose lovingly.

“Daddy wants a lighter. He hasn’t smoked for days, and his teeth are yellow.” Michael joined in.

“That won’t do. Daddy wants to quit smoking. You can’t be shameless and demand things from a child! Let her make her own decision.”

[Wheatley is so smart. Are Nannan and Michael hinting at the child to buy something?]

[I think the Festival Group said that each child will only be given 100 yuan. They can choose to give both parents a gift or buy something for just one person, but the parents are not allowed to give extra money.]

[Nannan and Michael are so confident. How did they know that there would be gifts for each of them? Maybe Wheatley is only planning to give it to one person.]
