Chapter 27 - Master of Passing the Blame, Xiao Xiao Treats to Dinner!

Chapter 27  Master of Passing the Blame, Xiao Xiao Treats to Dinner!

The cameraman’s reminder jolted Gu Xu, causing him to snap his head up suddenly.

Without thinking, he asked, “What time is it now?”

As he looked at the time on his phone, seeing it was already 7:30, he was shocked.

“What… how is it so late?”

Gu Xu regretted deeply in his heart.

It was all because of these short videos—they were just too funny. It really wasted my time!

He muttered quietly, “I only wanted to watch for a little while.”

“But I didn’t expect to watch for so long…”

Gu Xu’s eyes shifted, and he looked at the little one who was laughing so hard she was rolling on the couch. Suddenly, he stood up and pretended to be stern, glaring at Xiao Xiao.

“Xiao Xiao, how come you have no sense of time at all?”

“Look, what time is it now?”

“You’re still laughing! This is really infuriating!”

Gu Xu was very skilled at passing the blame. Xiao Xiao, who had finally stopped laughing, heard her dad’s words of reproach and shot him a glare, not at all pleased.

“Dad, don’t you feel guilty saying that?”

“You were the one who got totally engrossed in those videos!”

“Why are you blaming me?”

“You’re so unfair!”

“You’re bullying me!!”

Gu Xu put his hands on his hips, eyes darting around. Although he was in the wrong, his confidence remained strong.

“It’s really you! I was just keeping you company!”

“You have no sense of time!”

Xiao Xiao was speechless and completely exhausted. Her dad always did this—whenever something went wrong, it was somehow always her fault. This was just too much!

“Dad, you’ve really gone too far!”

“How can you throw all the blame on me?”

The viewers in the live stream saw this scene and flooded the chat with comments.

“This is ridiculous! I’m honestly dying of laughter!”

“Gu Xu’s way of flipping the script is just… completely speechless…”

“I can’t stop laughing! How does he manage to be so confident when he’s totally in the wrong?”

“Look at how experienced he is at passing the blame—this is definitely not his first time! How could he!”

“That’s not right! What’s Gu Xu up to?”

“Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and cook!”

“Don’t joke around, does Gu Xu even know how to cook?”

“Didn’t you hear what Xiao Xiao revealed earlier?”

In the studio, Yang Mi watched the scene before her, her heart skipped a beat. She had completely forgotten about this segment!

But… Gu Xu cooking… it really was…

The camera cut back to the scene.

Gu Xu held his head high, puffed out his chest, and hummed a few times before waving his hand grandly.

“Xiao Xiao, watch closely, your dad is going to show you his skills!”

The little one immediately threw a wrench in his plans.

“Dad, can you even cook the food? I don’t want another half-cooked disaster…”

“I’m not eating that!”

Xiao Xiao crossed her arms, looking smug and defiant. Gu Xu felt slighted and snorted in dissatisfaction.

“Underestimate me, huh? Let me tell you, I’m a star-level chef!”

“Wait here!”

The cameraman had a shocked expression on his face, clearly not believing him. Seeing the cameraman’s look, Gu Xu felt challenged. He raised his chin and confidently looked at Xiao Xiao.

“Come on, Xiao Xiao, tell this uncle.”

“Is your dad a star-level chef or not?”

Xiao Xiao hesitated for a moment but then nodded.

After a brief pause, it seemed like she thought of something and said firmly,

“Dad can cook.”

The cameraman’s eyes grew wide, like copper bells. He couldn’t believe it.

He reflexively asked, “Really? You’re not just fooling me, are you?”

In the next moment, Xiao Xiao crossed her arms and said seriously, “Last time he made braised pork, it was a black lump…”

“Dad told me it was chocolate-flavored!”

Xiao Xiao shook her head as she spoke, looking quite disappointed.

“And then the time before that, he cooked fish.”

“But the fish was still swimming around in the water!”

“Dad said that’s the freshest ingredient!”

“And it’s his special skill that no one else can learn!”

“He even made me promise not to tell anyone!”

At this point, Xiao Xiao glanced nervously at Gu Xu. When she saw he wasn’t angry, she let out a small sigh of relief. Then, she puffed out her chest and looked at him with sparkling admiration in her eyes.

After all, which dad can turn meat into chocolate-flavored food?

Xiao Xiao thought her dad was amazing!

But as she thought about what happened next, Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but spread her hands in regret.

“But, I never got to eat it.”

“I went to wash my hands, and when I came back, all the food was gone!”

“Dad said it was so delicious, he ate it all in one go!”

Pfft!

At this point, both the cameraman and the live stream viewers collectively spat out in laughter.

This was really hard to judge!

The cameraman tried to hold back his laughter, his shoulders shaking, and finally, he turned his back, unable to look at the smug little one. The viewers in the live chat didn’t hold back at all.

“Hahaha! Is Gu Xu trying to kill me with laughter?”

“Gu Xu is really talented! He can fool people like this?”

“Xiao Xiao, you’ve been tricked again! That wasn’t chocolate, it was just burnt!”

“This is so much of a scam! A once-in-a-lifetime scammer!!”

“Gu Xu probably can’t cook at all!”

“I can’t take it, I’m about to die laughing!”

“I now know why Miss Mi married Gu Xu.”

At this moment, the live chat exploded with laughter. This was clearly a case of being too close to the situation to see it clearly, while the onlookers had a clearer view!

In the studio, both Teacher He and Wang Bingbing were almost in tears from laughing.

“Gu Xu is really something else!”

“Can you believe he came up with such an excuse to fool the kid?”

“Is Xiao Xiao going to stay in the dark forever?”

“But still, at least he was responsible.”

“At least he didn’t let Xiao Xiao actually eat that food…”

Wang Bingbing frequently glanced at Yang Mi as she spoke. Yang Mi was practically dying from embarrassment, wishing she could leave the Earth that very night. It was just too awkward!

Awkward to the point of wanting to dig a hole and hide in it!

Yang Mi could feel the gazes from all directions.

She couldn’t escape, couldn’t hide. All she could do was freeze her face and wear a mechanical smile, not daring to look at anyone.

At the same time, in her heart, she silently vowed to teach Gu Xu a good lesson when they went home. He was getting more and more unreliable!

How could he make up such lies?

It was so infuriating!

Not only did he scam the kid, but he scammed me too!!

Gu Xu scratched his nose and gave an awkward smile. Xiao Xiao had just exposed his past embarrassing cooking history, and it felt like a public execution. These lies he told the kid couldn’t fool the cameraman, let alone the live stream viewers!

Clearing his throat twice, Gu Xu tried to calm himself down and said, “How about we have some water first?”

“Actually, the water I boiled is pretty good!”

The cameraman didn’t hesitate at all and firmly rejected the offer. Gu Xu wasn’t embarrassed by the rejection. Instead, he awkwardly changed the subject, staring at the ceiling, then the window outside. His gaze was all over the place.

“Uh…”

“I forgot to buy groceries today…”

“Why don’t we go out to eat instead?”

Xiao Xiao’s eyes immediately lit up.

She cheered excitedly, “Okay, okay! Let’s go, let’s go! Let’s go right now!”

She ran to the door to put on her shoes.

As the three of them were about to head out, Xiao Xiao seemed to remember something and turned to look at Gu Xu.

She said cheerfully, “Dad, what do you want to eat? Today, I’m treating!”

“I’ll use my red envelope money!”

She said this with the air of a little boss, her chin slightly raised, full of pride.

Gu Xu gave her a thumbs-up and readily agreed.

“No problem, it’s a deal then!”

The viewers in the live chat were also impressed by Xiao Xiao!

After all, when you go out to eat, it’s usually the parents’ money, but Xiao Xiao was using her own red envelope money. This surprised everyone.

“She’s really so good! I just want to steal her away…”

“Xiao Xiao is really so sensible!”

“She’s the dream kid! I want her!”

“Gu Xu is really great for letting Xiao Xiao use her red envelope money…”

“Yeah, unlike when we were kids…”

“My red envelope money was always taken away!”

“With Gu Xu’s personality, I bet he’s been eyeing Xiao Xiao’s little treasure chest? How could Xiao Xiao be so generous?”

“This feels a little strange!”

“Is there a trap in here?”

“Cameraman, go ask what’s really going on!”

Xiao Xiao’s behavior sparked a lot of speculation in the live chat. Many viewers urged the cameraman to inquire about the situation!

Clearly, after Gu Xu tricked his child so many times, everyone was beginning to catch on. They felt like things weren’t as simple as they seemed. There might be something fishy going on here!
