Maybe because it was the final episode, the production team changed things up. They didn’t assign any tasks to the guests, just letting them chat and drink tea in the yard. The kids played on their own without needing their moms’ attention. The mothers didn’t even have to make lunch as the crew took care of it.
“Super Mom,” indeed.
Several mothers sat in the flower pavilion in the yard, drinking tea and chatting.
Fang Tang sipped her tea and suddenly noticed something. She pointed at Shen Mingyou’s neck. “Mingyou, did something bite your neck?”
Shen Mingyou looked down and saw a red mark on her neck.
It was a hickey.
Of course, it was from Jiang Chen last night!
She had rushed out of the house in the morning and didn’t notice the mark on her neck.
“It’s probably a mosquito bite,” Shen Mingyou said, her face slightly flushed. She tried to pull up her collar to cover the mark, but it was too high to hide.
At first, Fang Tang didn’t realize what was on Shen Mingyou’s neck. With all the flowers and plants around the pavilion, mosquitoes were common, so she wanted to remind her to put on some ointment. But after a closer look, Fang Tang realized it wasn’t a bug bite.
Shen Mingyou’s face reddened even more as she tried to hide the mark, which made it even more obvious. Fang Tang and the others, being experienced, quickly understood what it was.
Zhong Yao glanced at Shen Mingyou teasingly and smiled. “Mingyou, your CEO Jiang has been in the headlines a lot lately. Even when you were filming, he showed up at the film set. If you ask me, your CEO Jiang is quite romantic. My Zhao Heng, on the other hand, is like a blockhead. He even forgot our wedding anniversary.”
Fang Tang added, “Yes, Mr. Jiang looks serious, but he’s definitely a loving husband and dad. Every time I pick up my son Jiang Xu from kindergarten, I see Mr. Jiang picking up Nian Nian. He really dotes on her, a real ‘daughter slave.'”
Hearing them praise Jiang Chen, Shen Mingyou knew they’d figured it out, so she took a sip of tea, trying to stay calm.
Gu Aifei had also noticed the mark on Shen Mingyou’s neck. Though she smiled, she was quietly sighing inside. After the last episode, her relationship with her mother-in-law, Xu Shulan, had changed.
Before, there hadn’t been many issues between them, but after appearing on the show, their problems seemed to come to the surface.
When Xu Shulan returned home, she saw mostly negative comments about herself online. In contrast, Shen Mingyou’s mother-in-law, Gu Jin, had only been on the show once, and netizens affectionately called her “the nation’s good mother-in-law.” Online praise for “Aunt Gu” was everywhere.
Xu Shulan, already upset during the show, became even angrier after seeing the comments. She started blaming Gu Aifei, accusing her of tricking her into joining this awful show, saying that if she hadn’t, she wouldn’t have been criticized.
Gu Aifei didn’t take it to heart. Xu Shulan was criticized because of her bad attitude, but now all the blame was being pushed onto her. In the past, whenever she sensed Xu Shulan was upset, Gu Aifei would go out of her way to please her. But after this experience, Gu Aifei had had enough. Why should she always be the one to act humble and submissive?
As a result, the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law deteriorated quickly. Zhou Jingxing, as both a son and husband, was stuck in the middle. He couldn’t help either his mother or his wife. He tried to please both sides at first, but when he found he couldn’t, he simply avoided the situation, thinking “out of sight, out of mind.”
Zhou Jingxing’s avoidance made Gu Aifei even angrier. They argued several times on the phone, and their relationship became tense.
Now, seeing Shen Mingyou so happy in love, Gu Aifei felt more than just unhappy—she was envious.
Nian Nian, who was playing nearby, overheard her mom mention a mosquito bite, so she quickly ran to her room. A moment later, she returned with a bottle of mosquito repellent.
“Mom, did a mosquito bite you?” Nian Nian rushed to her mom’s side, opening the repellent and frowning as she examined the red mark on her mom’s neck. Distressed, she said, “Mosquitoes are so annoying. They bit Mom like this.”
With that, Nian Nian tried to spray the repellent on her mother.
Fang Tang and Zhong Yao, standing nearby, couldn’t help but laugh when they saw Nian Nian’s actions.
Shen Mingyou: “…”
The camera in the pavilion was initially too far away for the audience in the live broadcast to clearly see the mark on Shen Mingyou’s neck that Fang Tang had mentioned. They thought it was a mosquito bite. But as Nian Nian ran over, the live broadcast camera followed her, capturing Shen Mingyou up close as Nian Nian sprayed the repellent. That’s when the kiss mark was revealed.
[Did you see that? I don’t think that mark on Sister Youzi’s neck is from a mosquito. It looks like a kiss mark!]
[It must have been left by Brother Youzi. Ahhh, why couldn’t we witness such an exciting scene!]
[Nian Nian: What kind of mosquito is so annoying that it bit my mom like this? Next time I see that mosquito, I’ll definitely slap it! Hahaha, little cutie Nian Nian, your dad is that big mosquito!]
[Boss Jiang didn’t even appear today, but the sweetness is off the charts! He sent flowers and a love letter, and now there’s a kiss mark. How long did they kiss? Ahhh, so sweet!]
[Ahhh, Mr. Jiang, please come quickly! If the production team doesn’t invite him this episode, we won’t be satisfied!]
