Chapter 620: Chapter 620 Bear Mom (3)

In fact, the entertainment industry often favors exaggeration. Take the variety talent show Qin Jiran was in charge of, for example. It’s touted as a global competition, but in reality, it involves participants from just over a dozen countries, each seeking fame in the entertainment industry or through the competition itself. Although the majority do possess a certain level of skill, the overall quality is uneven, and the entertainment value obviously outweighs the competitive aspect.

Qin Jiran and his team were well aware of this. After all, it was just a talent show organized by an entertainment company. If they could achieve high ratings and discover a few promising talents, it would already be considered a success.

However, the response to the show far exceeded Qin Jiran’s expectations, especially the international competition. Initially, everyone thought extending the competition would reduce viewer interest. But both Dragon Media and the Warrens family excelled in promotion, not only maintaining but even increasing anticipation for the final round among the viewers.

And so, the finale of "I’m the Best" officially began amid high expectations.

Before leaving, Qin Jiran said his reluctant goodbyes to Su Yanyi and their two children. This trip would take him away for over a month, until the end of the final round, and the thought of not seeing his wife and kids for that long made him miss them before he even departed. Despite his reluctance, in the end, Qin Jiran left.

Upon arrival in M country, Corey personally received them. He had visited during the two chubby babies’ full-month celebration, and it had only been half a month since they last met. Corey took Qin Jiran to the prearranged hotel. After checking in the contestants, a preparatory meeting for the competition was held that very evening, marking the start of another round of busy work for Qin Jiran.

On the first evening of Qin Jiran’s absence, Su Yanyi acted quite normal. She had dinner in the main house then offloaded the two children onto her parents, Mother Su and Father Su, before returning to her own smaller residence.

She read a book, but it was uninteresting, checked her phone, but found no compelling shows, then thought to tackle some documents, only to realize she brought none home. With nothing to do and feeling restless, she left her house and went to the flower room in the backyard to look at the flowers.

It was early April, and the flower room was lush with life. Stepping inside made her feel the air was particularly fresh. Su Yanyi intended to find a spot to sit for a while, but instead noticed her grandfather smoking his pipe not far away. Her expression immediately turned cold. Her grandfather had given up smoking a long time ago and would only smoke occasionally when he was upset.

"Grandfather, what’s wrong?" Su Yanyi approached Old Master Su with concern in her voice.

Old Master Su looked rather gloomy and sorrowful, fixated on a cactus about half human height in front of him. Surprised to hear Su Yanyi, he let out a deep sigh and slowly said, "This cactus was given to me by a dear friend over thirty years ago. Each of us old buddies raised one, deciding to see whose cactus would be the finest when we reached a hundred years old. But now, barely into our eighties, one by one, we’re passing away. Sigh."

Upon hearing this, Su Yanyi immediately understood that something had happened to one of her grandfather’s old comrades. Elder Su and his friends, all around eighty, had known each other since their youth—truly lifelong friends. Each bond was incredibly deep. They had all gathered during the twins’ full month celebration not long ago, and now she didn’t know which of them had encountered trouble, leaving her grandfather here, heartbroken and reflective.
