The second afternoon of the first live broadcast of "Travel with Parents 2".
Looking at the five groups of guests gathered, the host smiled slightly.
Gu Miaomiao noticed his expression and grabbed Gu Che's hand, softly saying, "That uncle has such a mischievous smile." Her master always had this look when playing pranks on her.
Gu Che glanced over and said blandly, "I suppose there will be some activities to mess with the guests soon."
Host: "..." Can't laugh, these siblings are too straightforward.
[Hahaha, these siblings are way too direct]
[Is the production team going to pull a big stunt on the first episode, be careful not to scare the guests away]
[Did you see someone's indifferent look, probably already aware of the trending topic]
[Tsk tsk tsk, the first to shout "Thief, catch the thief", amazing!]
[Shh, be careful, or his fans might come to scold you again]
[The certain top-tier idol's fans are quite classy, in my opinion]
[It's all because he openly said it's better to focus on your own work and studies rather than controlling reviews and doing data analytics, and his fans are tired of him, feeling like he's a guidance counselor]
[Is he the only artist whom fans find annoying? That mouth of his]
Since the siblings had already said so, the other small guests also watched the host warily.
"Uncle, do you have bad intentions?"
"We're not talking to you, ha!"
The host struggled to maintain composure, "Ahem, so here's the deal: today's afternoon task is for the children to pick fruits while the adults catch fish. Tomorrow, we'll go to the market together to sell them and use the money to buy gifts for the hosts of the houses we're staying at."
[Hahaha, the production team is really pulling a big stunt on the first episode]
[Picking fruits and fishing is fine, but selling stuff is really killing them]
[I remember there was a guest in the first season who absolutely refused to speak, and their income was dismal, leading them and their children to eat coarse bread]
[Hahaha, every time there's a similar segment, Ye Feng is always brought out as an example]
Tuanzi was initially very cautious but relaxed after hearing about the task.
"So it's just picking fruits and selling stuff, that's not too bad."
Gu Che: "..." Selling? Stuff?
"Hey, second brother, why are you so stiff?"
Tuanzi curiously poked his arm.
Gu Che forced a smile; he felt doomed for tomorrow.
The expressions of the other adults weren't that great either.
Opening their mouths to sell things takes a lot of mental preparation.
Su Hanjiang quickly relaxed again, "It's okay, if you really can't speak up, just pretend you're acting, playing the role of a fruit and fish seller."
Gu Che's eyes lit up.
"Mr. Su, great idea." He rarely gave a thumbs up.
Su Hanjiang laughed heartily.
Tang Tian and Liu Man: "..." Couldn't laugh, they've never acted before.
As for Zhou Yan, he was still preoccupied.
Official announcements were fine; it was just that they couldn't rely on smearing Gu Che to gain popularity in this case. But what about the videos posted by marketing accounts?
He suspected Gu Che had something to do with it, but everyone in the circle knew that Gu Che would only resort to such measures when driven mad; normally, he's above it all.
It was precisely Gu Che's holier-than-thou attitude, untainted by the world's mire, that made Zhou Yan even more envious of him.
If it wasn't Gu Che, then who?
Worried about losing his reputation, Zhou Yan was constantly preoccupied with this matter and even forgot to remind his younger cousin to behave well when they parted. Currently, there were many negative comments about Zhou Jun online.
Because Zhou Jun was a child, people were barely willing to cut him some slack. If Zhou Jun did anything more outrageous, they wouldn't be forgiving anymore.
The parents and children separated.
Tuanzi turned and ran off.
"Time to pick fruits," she bobbed her head, jumping occasionally, "Can Miaomiao taste one while picking? If it's tasty, I'll pick it; if not, I won't."
Gu Che wistfully watched her small figure disappear into the distance.
Not even a farewell?
Next door, Liu Yue was tearfully parting with her sister, yet the younger sibling was so willing to leave?
[Hahaha, Gu Che's expression is hilarious]
[Modern-day Rock Gazing Brother]
[Gu Che: Am I not your favorite second brother anymore?]
[Miaomiao: Right now my favorite is fruit!]
[Pass it on, the top star broke his persona again!]
Some netizens even jokingly pushed #TopStarBrokePersonaAgain# to the top of the trending list.
The forced laid-back fans saw the trending topic and were startled, fearing a scandal in the family. They didn't want that! They vowed never again to secretly complain about Gu Che being a guidance counselor!
But upon clicking, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
[Scared me to death]
[Me too]
[Didn't expect him to have two faces]
[Towards others: Cold and aloof, leave me alone, who are you?]
[Towards his sister: Is second brother handsome? Does second brother's cooking taste good?]
[Honestly, the sister is quite adorable]
Tuanzi happily went to find the farmer in charge, totally unaware of her second brother's sad disappointment.
There were two farmers, and the young guests would be divided into two groups.
One of them said, "I have the peach and plum team here, featuring flat peaches, nectarines, crispy sweet green plums, honey yellow plums, and red plums. Since the trees are tall and everyone is short, you'll need to use picking tools to avoid harming the fruit trees."
The five little ones looked at each other.
Tuanzi eagerly raised her hand, "Miaomiao can climb trees!"
Liu Yue also hurriedly raised her hand, "I, I can learn to use the tools."
The other farmer said, "I have the melon team here with white, yellow, and netted varieties, all grown on the ground. You can discuss now which team you'd like to join."
Five little heads huddled together.
Tang Jing pouted, "If using picking tools, you need to be strong."
He said calmly, "I am very strong."
Su Chaomu: "I am also very strong."
Zhou Jun didn't want to pick fruits at all. His parents said he was here to have fun, and if lots of people liked him, he could become a child star and earn money. Then he could eat more food.
To the surprise of the production team, except for Zhou Jun, everyone else wanted to stay on the peach and plum team.
Host: "Hmm, let's draw lots then."
Tuanzi quickly rubbed her chubby little hands, then clasped them together, closing her eyes tightly.
"Miaomiao wants to pick peaches!"
She hadn't tasted those melons but had eaten the villagers' peaches, which were super delicious. She wanted to pick the most delicious fruits!
Liu Yue sneaked a peek at her, "Does making a wish like that work?"
"It works," Tuanzi boasted, "My master taught me. If Miaomiao does this and wishes for beggar's chicken, an extra one will magically appear, amazing, right?"
Liu Yue quickly mimicked her wishing style earnestly.
Even the Little Cool Boy, with his pouty face, imitated her.
[These kids are too cute]
[Miaomiao's master really understands nurturing a child's innocence]
[Actually, my parents did the same for me when I was little. I wished for watermelons the next day, and there they were at home the next day; I thought they were gifts from a deity]
From the drawing results, Tuanzi and Tang Jing were assigned to pick peaches and plums, while the other three would pick melons.
"Hehe, wishing is really effective!" Tuanzi proudly lifted her little head.
[I kind of want to tell her it's a matter of probability]
[Come on, don't you find her smug look extremely pinchable?]
[You just want to pinch her cheeks]
The man watching the live broadcast thought to himself, is his sister's face really that pinchable? Why does everyone want to pinch it?
