Xiangxiang’s appearance combines the strong points of her parents and her pair of deer eyes was crystal clear.

And although Ning Xiaoyu was too lazy to dress up, those eyes of hers were equally clear.

To be stared at by such two pairs of pure eyes……

Even if it couldn’t be done, it must be done.

One could only go do it.

Lu Jingdu had never driven a tricycle before but it must be similar to driving a car.

One thing was different, however, as one didn’t need a licence to drive a three-wheeled vehicle. It shouldn’t be a big problem if he drives slowly.

Lu Jingdu had driven Bugatti’s and Pagani’s, but this was the first time he would drive a tricycle worth several thousand yuan.

Ling Zige subconsciously asked, “You guys are going there on a tricycle?”

Lu Jingdu gave a sound of confirmation before walking quickly towards Ning Xiaoyu.

With Ning Xiaoyu’s “You can do it” gaze and Xiangxiang’s innocent eyes, after a few seconds of silence, he stepped onto the tricycle.

【This is the first time I’ve seen the movie king ride a tricycle!】

【This scene must be preserved forever!】

【Laughing to death. Why does it feel like Brother is driving a convertible Maserati?】

After trying it out for a while to make sure there was no problem, the tricycle slowly drove off.

It was very slow, but no matter how slow it was, it was still easier and faster than walking, and it looks very stable.

On the passenger seat, there were two salted fishes, one large and one small.

The big salted fish seemed very at ease, crossing her legs comfortably, while the little salted fish was still not used to it, so she leaned affectionately against Ning Xiaoyu for support.

A group of people looked at each other for a few seconds after watching tricycle go away.

In the end, it was Xi Rui who spoke up first, “Director, is there any tricycle left?”

“There’s still a human-powered one.”

Xi Rui quickly said, “Manual is also fine.”

A manual tricycle needed pedalling which was more laborious, but it was better than walking.

Soon, the last tricycle was taken away by Xi Rui’s group.

The rest could only walk.

There was another burst of chaos.

After walking 5 kilometers, Ning Yuwei’s feet were covered with blisters. She had a special car to pick her up whenever she travelled and it had been a long time since she had walked so much.

Her feet hurt that even taking an extra step was a burden.

Taking advantage of the break, Ning Yuwei made a call to her manager, “Release Ning Xiaoyu’s black material.” She didn’t want to see Ning Xiaoyu so relaxed and at ease anymore!

How was it that she could only walk while Ning Xiaoyu could ride on a tricycle driven by Lu Jingdu?

Hearing Ning Yuwei’s words, her manager was silent for a while before saying, “Ning Xiaoyu has no black material.”

No black material? How could people in this circle have no black material?

Even she had her share of bad press such as ‘playing big names’ and ‘being unprofessional’, though they have all been suppressed.

Ning Yuwei took a deep breath. “How can there be no black material? It must be because you didn’t investigate properly.”

Her manager sighed. With a hint of complexity in her tone, not knowing whether it was admiration or lamentation, she said, “Ning Xiaoyu…… isn’t ambitious. She doesn’t have many friends in the circle and hardly participates in gatherings. She doesn’t dress up or actively approach investors or well-known directors.

She’s been in the circle for years but several big investors still don’t know who she is.

When she has few fans, she hardly interacted with them. Now that she has millions of them, she still doesn’t interact with them. There’s nothing like sleeping with male fans, py transactions^[1]dirty transactions/shady things behind the scenes; pì yǎn – asshole or such things.”

In short, Ning Xiaoyu was a salted fish who was so lazy that she didn’t even have black material.

She’s salty to the point of outrageousness!

Ning Yuwei pursed her lips. “Aren’t there any ambiguous photos that look plausible and that can be guided along the lines of her being in love with whomever? She’s at least acted in many online dramas, and although they’re all small roles, there must be photos of her dining with cast members, right?”

Hearing this sentence, the manager on the other side of the phone was silent for a longer time.

Finally, the other party let out a long sigh. “There is. But every time, she is the last one to leave, there’s no chance to be in the same frame with other male stars. And the occasional ones where she’s with a male star, both of her hands were always holding something and stuffing herself with food. She only looked satisfied with her meal. Do you think that if we release this kind of photos, people will believe that the two individual in it are a couple?”

She’s a salted fish that doesn’t understand romance and had no sense of CP with those male stars.

Ning Yuwei still didn’t give up. “What about negative news like acting like a prima-donna and not being on time?”

“Act like a prima-donna? She used to be an 18th line actress, how can she act like one? Being not on time is even worse. She’s playing small characters without lines and filming will be finished in no time.”

So, Ning Xiaoyu really had no black material?

Ning Yuwei didn’t want to give up. As Ning Xiaoyu’s younger sister with the same father and mother, there were some things that were inconvenient for her to do. If Ning Xiaoyu did a desperate action and revealed her mother’s aversion to poverty and love for wealth, that she even abandoned her husband and daughter to remarry a rich man, then no one would be happy.

The marriage between her mother and Ning Zhen lasted for more than ten years. If anyone wanted to investigate the past, they wouldn’t be able to hide it.

If it’s inconvenient for her to do, then she could only leave it to her best friend.

———

On the other side, Ning Xiaoyu was sitting on the back of the tricycle listening to its sound. She took out a small packet of nuts from her pocket.

She glanced at Xiangxiang and said, “The nuts are too hard, you’re too young to eat them.” Then, against Xiangxiang’s brightly shining eyes, she happily ate alone.

By the time Ning Xiaoyu finished her packet of nuts, the 10 kilometers rode also came to an end.

And at the end of the road stood six fathers with different looks, as well as dozens of staff members from the 《Hello Dad》 program.

As soon as she saw Huo Cheng, Xiangxiang hurriedly leaned forward and called out in a milky voice, “Dad.”

Huo Cheng hummed and came over to pick Xiangxiang up.

Xiangxiang leaned her head and gave her father a heart-warming kiss.

The other fathers immediately gathered around and said, “Where are the others?”

Ning Xiaoyu threw the trash into a nearby bin and dusted her hands. “They’re still on the way.”

———

Almost an hour later, the other guests finally arrived.

There’s a guest house nearby and the program team had already reserved rooms in advance. The guests of the two programs would stay there today.

It’s hard to make collaboration so it naturally couldn’t end so soon.

Because most of the guests came there on foot, the program team specially gave a two-hour break.

During this period, Ning Xiaoyu lay comfortably on the recliner and listened to other guests chatting, but did not join in.

At this time, a father suddenly talked to her, “This guest looks familiar.”

Ning Xiaoyu raised her eyes and pointed at herself. “Me?”

The father smiled and nodded. “Yes.”

Ning Xiaoyu was too lazy to prolong the conversation, so she gave a dry “Oh”. Generally, after saying so, this simple conversation wouldn’t be continued.

However, when she saw this father, she inexplicably felt that he was also quite familiar.

The love system said with a lack of interest, 【Of course, you’ll find each other familiar. In terms of blood relationship, this is your cousin^[2]elder male cousin with the same surname.】

Cousin?

Ning Xiaoyu was a little surprised for a moment.

Although she did not participate in their chat, she got a general idea of ​​the identities of the six fathers from their conversation.

Apart from President Huo, who had the highest status in the room, this President Ning was the most capable in terms of making profit.

She heard that President Ning was currently running a family group that had been inherited for three generations. Their family had been developing overseas before, and this year, the whole family had the idea of ​​returning to the country.

Family group?

The love system wasn’t interested in topics that didn’t involve sugar. However, this matter was related to its host, so it could only continue, 【Yes. The group was established in 1902 and has been around for over a century now. Any group that can survive for this long is a super multinational group.】

So?

The love system straightforwardly said with a flat tone, 【So, if your father didn’t have a falling out with his family, you would have been a real rich third generation.】

Oh, her father had a falling out with his family?

That’s why.

The tiny bit of curiosity Ning Xiaoyu had quickly disappeared.

Since they have fallen out, they couldn’t be considered relatives anymore.

Seeing that its host looked even disinterested than it, the love system actually became a little more interested in this topic.

【Girl, don’t you want to ask why your father has broken relationship with his family?】

Ning Xiaoyu’s father had been in coma for seven years. During that time, no one else had visited her father except her.

From a very young age, she knew that she had no relatives from her paternal side.

Her father never mentioned them either.

Since he didn’t mention anything about them, it’s probably unnecessary to know.

Ning Xiaoyu shrugged. “I don’t want to. But I might already know the answer.”

The love system asked curiously, 【What?】

“It’s related to Ms. Zhang, isn’t it?”

Apart from this reason, Ning Xiaoyu couldn’t think of any other.

【Right.】

Since this was the case, the matter was already clear.

There’s a high probability that Ms. Zhang didn’t know Father Ning’s true identity, otherwise she should have persuaded Father Ning to recognize his family long ago. And in order to be with Ms. Zhang, Father Ning went against the wishes of his family, even going as far as breaking away from them.

She thought her father had already given enough, but she had never imagined him to have such a past.

The love system said with a bored expression, 【Your grandfather is old now and is a little worried about his youngest son. He wants to know how he has been doing in the past years, so the family decided to return and develop in the country because of your father.】

Ning Xiaoyu let out an “Oh”, expressing that she knew. In the end, this was her father’s business and had nothing to do with her.

The decision on whether to recognize his relatives or not would have to wait until her father wakes up.

The love system was even more indifferent to this matter.

What about recognizing family members? Could it give it sugar to eat?

As for the properties that the old man specially set aside for his youngest son and his children……

It was also very rich. As long as its host was diligent in doing tasks, it could provide no matter how much she wants.

Thus, a good thing like becoming a third rich generation to ordinary people, held no attraction for Ning Xiaoyu and the love system.

The matter passed so uneventfully in their case.

But they didn’t know that at this time, the Ning family had set the issue of finding people as top priority.

———

After the two-hour break, the program team assigned an activity to the guests present.

“Life lies in movements. Please demonstrate the sports the guests are best at to set a good example to the children. Let the children fall in love with sports from an early age and understand the beauty of exercise.”

This wasn’t at all difficult for the guests.

Wasn’t it just sports? Who doesn’t know how to do it?

Ling Zige was the first to perform a sprint.

The open space in front of the guest house was large enough for the guests to display their skills.

It took him ten seconds to run a 50 meters stretch.

After the run, under the applause of the children, he did not forget to say to them in front of the camera as he was catching his breath, “Running has many benefits. Children can run moderately with the company of their parents.”

Ling Zige was followed by Xu Cheng.

He performed push-ups.

Ning Yuwei was on the side. This kind of exercise that could best demonstrate a man’s strength, stamina, and endurance was something she wouldn’t naturally miss.

Within a minute, Xu Cheng did a full 50 push-ups, displaying his strength and beauty to the extreme.

A drop of sweat fell from his forehead and he casually wipes it away, smiling handsomely at the camera.

“I haven’t done this for some time, so I’m a bit rusty.”

【Sh*t, sure enough, men who do push-ups are handsome!】

【Xu Cheng’s physical strength is really good!】

【Look at the strength of his waist. Look at the strength of his arms. It’s really amazing.】

【Good man, slurp, slurp! Does Xu Cheng mean that he used to do more push-ups?】

After a few male guests, it was soon Lu Jingdu’s turn.

The sport he demonstrated was basketball.

As a global sport, basketball was no stranger to anyone.

But not everyone could make the standard shooting motion so pleasing.

He jumped up lightly and threw the ball with his right hand.

After a beautiful parabola, the ball accurately went into the hoop.

A textbook perfect three-pointer shot!

He raised his chin slightly as he stared at the direction of the hoop. His profile was so handsome that he didn’t look like a real person.

The children applauded one by one, and Xiangxiang even clapped until her palms were red.

【Compared to three-point shooting, push-ups seem a bit greasy.】

【Three-point shooting is still more exciting! Basketball, yyds!】

【No wonder so many sisters like to watch boys play basketball. I finally understand its beauty!】

【Xu Cheng vs. Lu Jingdu, I declare that Movie King Lu is slightly better!】

【This three-pointer is really fantastic!】

After the male guest, it was the female guest’s turn.

The sports demonstrated by the female guests were more diverse, and they were more interesting than ordinary sports.

For example, Ning Yuwei did shuttlecock kicking.

The shuttlecock was a small one with colorful feathers.

Sure enough, this quickly attracted the attention of the three little girls.

Ning Yuwei didn’t know any fancy shuttlecock moves but even the simplest posture was enough to fool this group of children whose average age was only four years old.

She kicked the shuttlecock up high and then catches it.

Then she kicked it again and catches it again.

These few moves were met with a burst of gasps from the children.

After kicking the shuttlecock, she smiled triumphantly at Ning Xiaoyu.

Ning Xiaoyu received this smile, but she directly ignored it.

Unimportant people don’t require any attention.

Ning Yuwei felt that she had smashed her fist into cotton and her mood was a bit sluggish for a while. Facing someone like Ning Xiaoyu, she felt that she had nowhere to use her energy.

After Ning Yuwei was Mu Jiajia, who showed hula hooping.

She has a certain level of dancing skill and spun the hula hoop so fast and well that it stayed firmly on her waist, with no sign of falling off.

Mu Jiajia showed it for a few minutes before stopping. She smiled and said, “Spinning hula hoops can help you lose weight. It’s an exercise that is very suitable for girls. But girls, remember, you must do it in moderation. If you do it too much, the harm will outweigh the benefits.”

Mu Jiajia was followed by Shen Yueyue. She did rope skipping.

The rope was very well behaved in her hands, flinging around in a way that showed off the beauty of the movements.

She jumped lightly and elegantly, doing dozens in a short period of time.

Shen Yueyue smiled as she said, “Rope skipping can also be used to lose weight, but again, you have to do it in moderation since it can put a heavy burden on your knees if overdone.”

After the other female guests performed, it was finally Ning Xiaoyu’s turn.

The guests all did common sports that were very suitable for children.

For example, skipping rope, some children jump very well.

And basketball.

Most parents intentionally cultivate boys’ interest in playing basketball from an early age.

Playing more basketball could also help with their growth.

When it was Ning Xiaoyu’s turn, the children and the audience looked at her expectantly.

So, what sports would she show? Most of the common ones have already been demonstrated by previous guests and there weren’t many left.

It seems that rubber band skipping still hadn’t been shown.

Can Ning Xiaoyu do rubber band skipping? However, she didn’t look like someone who likes to play it.

The audience guessed correctly that Ning Xiaoyu was indeed not very good at rubber band skipping.

This kind of exercise that requires jumping and hooking one’s legs was too complicated for her liking.

Anyway, the exercise she demonstrated wasn’t that.

What she showed was— playing with therapy balls.

Not one of those big things, but the small ones that older people like to use to exercise their fingers.

They saw Ning Xiaoyu hold two small therapy balls in her right hand, which she flexibly turned, constantly exercising her fingers.

These hands, which were often used to crack open melon seeds and peel walnuts, were not inferior in spinning balls.

The audience had found another thing Ning Xiaoyu’s flexible hand could do.

An old man who had played ball for more than a decade would be willing to admit defeat when he saw her movements.

Were such nimble fingers made by cracking open melon seeds?

【……Hahahahaha, I burst out laughing! Really hilarious!】

【Xiaoyu is still the most impressive to actually came up with such an exercise. Laughing to death. Exercising fingers, that’s right, this did count as sport.】

【As expected of the salted fish king, she don’t want to use any extra energy. Hahaha, brilliant, really brilliant. Who would have thought that she would show such a sport?】

【The children probably saw this sport for the first time. Look at their expressions, their little faces are so confused. I’m dying of laughter.】

【Popular Science: This is an exercise that elderlies enjoys. Generally, when they have nothing to do, or when watching other people play chess, some elderly people like to hold two balls in their hands and play.】

【Xiao Yu has carefully considered the sports for these children for when they grow old. Who wouldn’t say it’s brilliant?】

【Excellent, Xiao Yu is the best. Everyone else is showing mainstream sports and only Xiao Yu doesn’t follow the usual path!】

Ning Xiaoyu’s exercise was too unexpected. When the fathers reacted, they all had dumbfounded look on their faces.

They might get confused about which guest did what sports later, after all, running and push-ups were too common. They don’t chase stars either, so who would deliberately remember which was which?

However, Ning Xiaoyu’s demonstration, they probably would never forget it in their lifetime.

It couldn’t be helped. Ning Xiaoyu was too much of a maverick. This therapy ball that exercises the fingers, they couldn’t forget it even if they wanted to.

Xiangxiang said with sparkling eyes, “Sister, I want to play.”

Xiangxiang’s palm was too small to hold a ball.

Ning Xiaoyu comforted her by saying, “Be good, wait until you can play this in the future.”

【Wait until you’re older before you can play this.】

【Hahahaha, I’m really dying of laugher.】

This one small interaction ended in the laughter of the audience.

———

As the two guests were having dinner together, Shen Yueyue couldn’t help asking Ning Xiaoyu, “How did you come up with that sport?”

When most people think of sports, the first thing that comes to mind was probably running, playing ball, skipping rope and others such things. How could Ning Xiaoyu think of things that others couldn’t every time?

Regarding this point, Shen Yueyue really admired Ning Xiaoyu.

Ning Xiaoyu said casually as she ate, “Because I’m too lazy to jump and run.”

Therefore, she could only work her fingers and exercise them more.

After realizing this, Shen Yueyue couldn’t help laughing. “It’s really you.”

But Ning Xiaoyu’s exercise really saves energy. She didn’t need to run or leave her current position, all it takes was a simple move of her fingers.

After all, this was an exercise that the elderly were fond of.

It’s also fortunate that Ning Xiaoyu came up with such a sport.

———

After dinner, the guests were allowed to go to their respective rooms.

Today’s recording took long and by the time the show ended, it was already ten o’clock in the evening.

All six children had already fallen asleep.

However, when Ning Xiaoyu was about to go back to her room, the little girl Xiangxiang tried to open her sleepy eyes wide and said softly, “Good night, Sister.”

Ning Xiaoyu smiled. “Good night, Xiangxiang.”

She hadn’t been back in her room for long when she received a message from the program team.

It was rather long and the general meaning was that most of the guests were too tired from helping with the children today, so the crew had called three blind massage therapists for them.

The massage therapists were all indeed blind but they were legitimate masters of their craft.

Guests in need of the service could go to the lounge to enjoy a massage.

Seeing this message, Ning Xiaoyu herself had little reaction, but the love system was already blustering and impatiently assigned a new love task. 【Girl, a good future boyfriend must adhere to male virtue!

Even blind massage therapists can’t just casually put their hands on him! Although it’s uncertain if the movie king with a slight obsession with cleanliness will let them massage him, but uncertainty means there’s a possibility.

After all, today is the first time that the movie king drove a tricycle, and it’s even with you guys, so it’s really tiring.

At this time, you can——

A: Show the movie king that you don’t like the idea of ​​others touching him. （Hold onto your possessiveness to death.jpg）

B: Show him that if he needs it, you can reluctantly help him massage his shoulders. （A little sweetness now and then.jpg）

C: Give him a massage hammer so that he can hammer it himself. （It’s just so cold and ruthless. ） 】

Seeing these three options, Ning Xiaoyu couldn’t help but think that as expected of the love system. It would feel uncomfortable if it didn’t do anything every day.
