Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 414 - 415

Chapter 414: Chapter 415

Xiao Yi was at a loss. He pondered that he hadn’t provoked the little girl, so why was she crying even more the more he talked?

An idea flashed through his mind: could it be that the little girl was crying because she didn’t like him?

He had just boasted in front of everyone that all kids liked him, and just like that, he found himself embarrassed by the little girl.

Since there was no alternative, he smiled at Xiao Yiyi, who stood to one side, "You must be Xiao Yiyi, right? Uncle knows you, do you know why she’s crying?"

As a guest host, he had to resolve this awkward situation himself.

Xiao Yi had watched the first two episodes of the parent-child show, and in his memory, Xiao Yiyi was a very well-behaved and likable little girl, but the very next second, Xiao Yiyi also started crying loudly~

Xiao Yi: ...

[Hahaha! That’s a quick slap in the face, isn’t it? I’m dying of laughter!]

[Who was it just now, bragging about how all the kids liked him, and it’s only been a few minutes, right?]

[This parent-child show never disappoints, it’s full of ups and downs, and surprises around every corner!]

[Best Actor Xiao’s expression is really hilarious, I’m seriously cracking up!]

Qiu Wanshuang quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "The little ones might not be quite used to the new environment yet. They were crying on the boat just now, and they’re still a little shy; Xiao Yi, don’t take it to heart."

Ji Yunyun and Xiao Yiyi cried louder than each other. Ji Yunyun’s crying had nothing to do with Xiao Yi; she started crying for no reason when she saw Xiao Yi holding Xiao Chen.

Xiao Yiyi’s crying was entirely because of Ji Yunyun. When Xiao Yi asked her, she herself didn’t know why Ji Yunyun was crying, so she figured she might as well cry along with the rest.

Xiao Yi sighed, "Oh, I thought it was because they didn’t like me, so they both started crying."

"You laugh like a kidnapper, how could the little girl not be frightened into crying by seeing you?"

As this deep and pleasant voice rang out, everyone’s expressions became animated, and it was a bit hard to keep from laughing!

The teasing joke was something only Song Jinze would dare say to Xiao Yi; probably no one else would dare to speak out.

Ji Ziqian and Director Yang, although acquainted with Xiao Yi, weren’t close enough to make such a joke, and Gu Liangjun was out of the question, having no interaction with him and meeting for the first time today.

Xiao Yi stood up, frowning at Song Jinze, "I’m handsome when I laugh; how do I look anything like a kidnapper?"

Song Jinze couldn’t be bothered even to look at him, "Every part of you does!"

Everyone: ...

The cameraman brother expressed it was getting hard for him to hold back his laughter!

[Hahahaha! No doubt about it, this is someone who knows him well, ordinary people can’t say things like this!]

[Jiumin, why do I feel like President Song matches well with anyone? He’s an incredible match with Zhenzhen, and when he talks to Xiao Yi, it feels like they’re enemies. ]

[To the person above, it’s fine to ship a niche pairing, but please don’t ship something bizarre. Some were randomly pairing Zhenzhen with Xiao Yi a few days ago, and now you’ve started with Xiao Yi and President Song. What, you can’t rest until you’ve broken up President Song and his wife?]

[Hahaha! I really want to laugh, Best Actor Xiao is a kidnapper! Hahaha!]

[By the way, I think President Song has such a sharp tongue. Could Zhenzhen win against President Song in an argument?]

[With Ye Zhenzhen’s mouth, who could win against her in an argument?]

Just as everyone was struggling to hold back their laughter, Gu Xiaoran suddenly burst into loud laughter, "Haha, Uncle Song said that Brother Yi is a kidnapper, hahaha!"

"Hahaha!" Xiaowen also joined in the laughter.

Then the two little ones who were crying suddenly stopped crying and both started to laugh.

With the children’s change of mood, the atmosphere became lively in a moment.

Everyone couldn’t help but laugh along with them.

Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Yi asked the little ones, "So do you like Uncle Xiao Yi?"

"Like!" Song Yuchen was the best at playing along; he shouted loudly.

The other children also followed, shouting, "Like!"

Xiaowen stepped forward to give a concluding summary. She smiled at Xiao Yi and said, "I can see it now, not only do the children like you, but the guests do too. They enjoy joking with you and get amused by your jokes.

So now you will be the one to announce the next task for everyone!"

Xiaowen handed the task card to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi smiled and didn’t immediately open the task card to announce the mission; instead, he said to the little ones, "Just now, Uncle Song jokingly said Uncle Xiao Yi is a human trafficker, but that’s not true. Uncle is not a trafficker.

However, if you ever get lost outside and encounter a human trafficker, you must call the police. If you don’t know how to call the police, you should shout for help loudly and then seek assistance from passersby, okay?"

The little ones unanimously replied, "Got it!"

"Because we’re short on time, Uncle will announce the task first, and when we have time later, Uncle will tell you stories about child traffickers so you know how to protect yourselves, okay?"

"Okay!"

[Jokes turned into anti-abduction education, not bad at all!]

[No wonder Xiao Yi has always had such a good reputation in the circle, he truly deserves it!]

[I can tell now, with someone like Xiao Yi, his circle of friends must be people like President Song and Ye Zhenzhen, because they have something in common—they are all nice and outstanding!]

Xiao Yi: "Alright, now let’s start our task for today!

First of all, congratulations to the family who arrived first on Nanfeng Island, Ye Zhenzhen and her family, congratulations for having the privilege of first choice. You can head over to those four tool packs and choose one to build your shelter for tonight.

Also, Ye Zhenzhen won during last week’s studio recording, so today at noon, she will be rewarded with a luxury meal!"

"What about us? What are we going to do for lunch?" When Gu Liangjun asked this question, he was already very impatient.

A bunch of kids were crying and laughing beside him, chattering annoyingly.

And standing under this sun was so hot. Is recording a variety show just about a bunch of people standing together talking a heap of nonsense? Troublesome!

Xiao Yi ignored Gu Liangjun’s question and continued to read the task. "After the first family makes their choice, the other guests can go and grab a tool pack. Whichever one you get, you use. As for lunch, well, you’ll have to sort it out yourselves.

For dinner, there will be another task in the afternoon. Once you’ve built your houses, we’ll talk about it then!"

Xiaowen smiled at Xiao Chen, "Alright, Xiao Chen, go pick out a tool pack with your mom and dad!"

"Yay yay yay! We are the first!" Xiao Chen ran to the package placed at the forefront, happily telling Song Jinze and Ye Zhenzhen, "Mom and Dad, let’s choose this package!"

Ye Zhenzhen agreed, "No problem at all."

"What does Dad think?"

With a smile curving his lips, Song Jinze said, "If Mom says it’s okay, then it’s okay for me."
