Chapter 48: Has Qin Youran’s Savior Appeared?

In the Jun family residence, Butler Mu sat in front of the television, his face brimming with a warm smile as he watched the live broadcast of the show.

Jun Jiu, having just delivered some documents, came downstairs and politely greeted, “Butler Mu, what are you watching?”

Butler Mu smiled and replied, “I’m watching the young master’s live broadcast.”

Jun Jiu’s interest was immediately piqued. “Let me see, let me see!”

He leaned in just as the screen showed Jun Yan, with a cold expression, changing into rubber boots.

Jun Jiu chuckled, “Butler Mu, you have no idea! Our young master has so many tricks up his sleeve! He wants to participate in ‘National Parents’ using his real name but won’t let the production team know his true identity… Tsk, arranging all this cost me quite a few brain cells!”

Butler Mu’s smile was gentle. “The young master is having a lot of fun.”

“Fun? With that ice-cold face, how can you tell?” Jun Jiu scoffed. “If you ask me, our young master has been molded by the family head into the coldest stone on Mount Everest! It’s impossible to see any expression other than indifference on his face!”

Butler Mu shook his head, his eyes carrying a deeper meaning. “Xiao jiu, I don’t think you quite understand Young Master Yan.”

Jun Jiu clicked his tongue. “How about we make a bet? For this episode, every time Young Master Yan changes his expression, I’ll…”

Butler Mu calmly suggested, “You’ll clean all the toilets in the residence once.”

Jun Jiu laughed, “Deal! But… Butler Mu, aren’t you being too hard on yourself? Knowing how aloof Young Master Yan is, you’re deliberately losing to me because you want to clean? I’m worried your old bones can’t handle it!”

Butler Mu remained silent, a knowing smile in his eyes, resembling a cunning old fox.

Jun Jiu turned towards the TV in high spirits.

Jun Yan, having changed into rubber boots, approached Yan Wang. His cold, handsome brow raised slightly, exuding a big brother aura: “Haven’t got your boots on properly? Need big brother to help you adjust them?”

Yan Wang coolly refused: “No need, little brother.”

Jun Yan smirked: “If you’re ready, why aren’t you getting in the water? Don’t tell me… you’re afraid of water?”

Yan Wang remained silent.

“The water isn’t even up to Tang Tang’s knees!” Jun Yan grabbed his hand, “What’s there to be afraid of for a real man?”

With that, he pulled Yan Wang into the water in one smooth motion.

Jun Jiu stared in disbelief.

Is this enthusiastic and proactive person really their Young Master Yan? What kind of filter did the production team use?

Butler Mu’s eyes twinkled with laughter as he tallied: “A mocking expression with raised eyebrows, a mischievous smile… Xiao jiu, in just one minute, you already have to clean the toilets twice. Do you want to keep watching?”

Jun Jiu refused to believe it: “Keep! Going!”

Yan Yueqing had just led Tang Tang into the water, choosing a relatively shallow spot to stand. She was about to go back to help the other two children down when Jun Yan proactively pulled Yan Wang into the water.

One small iceberg with a mischievous grin, one frail and cold little snow lotus…

As they entered the water, they startled a school of fish!

Jun Yan handed a scoop to Yan Wang: “Come on, let’s compete to see who can catch more fish.”

Yan Wang didn’t refuse.

The two children, disregarding their image, began to work diligently!

Seeing her brothers working so hard, Tang Tang didn’t want to be left behind and quickened her fish-catching pace.

Despite being the last group to enter the water, their bucket contained more fish than the other groups.

[Viewer comments:]

[Haha, Jun Yan is so cute! A tsundere on the outside, gentle on the inside, with a touch of sass—I love it!]

[Yan Wang is shy and introverted, but Jun Yan is so warm and proactive! It gives a feeling of redemption somehow.]

[Tang Tang is working hard too, her chubby hands grabbing fish tails, not letting go even when splashed in the face.]

[Haha, Yueqing looks so bewildered, with the three kids being so competitive. She can only wipe Tang Tang’s face and adjust her son’s and Jun Yan’s wet sleeves.]

[Yan Wang’s initially cold and melancholic aura has now become very lively after being influenced!]

[Jun Yan is truly a warm-hearted little angel!]

Jun Jiu stared at the screen and comments in disbelief, as if someone had struck him on the head.

“Enthusiastic? Warm-hearted??? Little angel?!!! My goodness, are these words describing our Young Master Yan? And who’s that smiling person inside? Has he been possessed? Give me back our Young Master Yan!”

Seeing his refusal to accept reality, Butler Mu patted his shoulder with a smile: “Xiao jiu, you still don’t understand Young Master Yan very well.”

Some icebergs have glaciers underneath.

Some icebergs, however, conceal smoldering embers.

Jun Yan is the latter, only exhibiting the former’s appearance due to his circumstances in the Jun family.

Even the family head was once mischievous enough to climb roofs and cause chaos in his childhood…

Only Young Master Yan seemed to have his inner self sealed away, giving off a sense of desolate loneliness.

This show finally revealed the innocent and lively nature he should have had!

How could Butler Mu not be happy about this? He glanced at Jun Jiu and patiently reminded him: “Do you want me to keep track of how many times Young Master Yan has changed his expression since entering the water?”

Jun Jiu was almost in tears: “No need, no need! Just two rounds! I’ll only clean the toilets twice! I’m not watching anymore, what’s there to see?” With that, he stood up and fled.

Butler Mu laughed, unsurprised.

Turning back, his gaze gently landed on Yan Wang.

After an hour, each group had caught at least ten fish. They had enough not just for dinner, but even for lunch the next day!

The village chief enthusiastically announced: “The next task is for everyone to go to Neijia Town on their own and communicate with the villagers about tonight’s accommodation.”

Huh? They’re not choosing houses anymore?

The guests were somewhat surprised.

Hearing this arrangement, Qin Youran secretly breathed a sigh of relief…

Finally, it was the plot from her previous life!

As soon as the village chief dismissed them, she immediately led Tian Tian towards Neijia Town, familiar with the route.

Tian Tian, being led by her, walked quickly, feeling slightly confused: “Aunt Youran, are you very familiar with this place?”

Qin Youran stopped in her tracks, inwardly cursing herself for being careless! Then she smiled and said: “Not really, isn’t there just one road into town?”

Tian Tian looked at the wide road and responded with a puzzled “Oh.”

Entering the ancient-style Neijia Town, Qin Youran, learning from her earlier mistake, deliberately slowed her pace and even led Tian Tian in circles around the same spot several times.

Then, she made an excuse to buy some vegetables at the market.

Looking around, she indeed saw Song Xiaoyu’s figure in a corner!

Song Xiaoyu, the girl she had accidentally encountered in her previous life, was also the ultimate weapon that helped her win this season’s “National Parents”!

Qin Youran was overjoyed, but before she could approach, she suddenly saw Yan Yueqing leading three little followers walking over.

Tang Tang pointed at Song Xiaoyu’s stall: “Sister Yueqing, I want to buy the tomatoes in front of that big sister!”

“Alright, let’s go take a look!”

Just as Yan Yueqing was about to walk towards the stall, the system awakened again.

“Potential target baby detected, special family search task can be triggered. Do you want to accept it?”
