“Guest?”

　　When school was about to end at noon, the program team suddenly gave Chu Rong a task requirement, which roughly required the five families to interact with each other and visit other families for dinner.

　　The housewife that Chu Rong drew was named Ge Yinyu, a very influential actress in the entertainment industry.

　　”The time is twelve noon today,” the staff member added.

　　Chu Rong hesitated for a moment and asked, “Where shall we have dinner? Must we have it at home?”

　　”Of course it depends on what you want. Of course, if you want, it’s better to do it at home, and it would be even better if you add some parent-child elements.” The staff said with a smile.

　　In fact, Chu Rong was not that stupid. From what the staff said, she understood that the rule was to treat the guests at home. However, due to Fu Ruhui, the program team would not make the requirements too rigid. After all, if Chu Rong was unwilling to follow the program team’s rules, could Zhong Chunhe still force her?

　　Chu Rong is a person who follows the rules. Fu Ruhui’s face belongs to Fu Ruhui. She is paid to do the job, so she cannot get any special treatment.

　　”Oh. Then let’s stay at home.” Chu Rong had a plaster on her head that looked like a fever-reducing patch. Thinking of the social interaction she would face soon, she felt her head hurt even more. “Do we have to prepare for it at noon today?”

　　”That’s right.” The staff nodded.

　　“Do I have to do it myself?”

　　The staff member smiled and said, “You are welcome to do whatever you want.”

　　”…” Chu Rong understood, she took the car keys, “I’ll pick up the kid from school first, and come back to cook later.”

　　Fu Nian finishes school at 11 o’clock, and still has time to cook a few dishes when he comes back.

　　”Okay.” The staff member calmly relaxed his tense shoulders.

　　Fortunately, Miss Chu was easy to talk to, and the task assigned by the director was completed.

　　”Sister Yun, can you help steam the rice later?” Chu Rong instructed before leaving. “You don’t have to cook.”

　　Sister Yun also heard the conversation between Chu Rong and the staff. She nodded with a smile on her face and did not look worried at all.

　　”Let’s go, Xiaoyu.” Chu Rong called Fu Yu who was trying hard to change his shoes, and leaned against the door, watching the little boy struggling with the children’s sports shoes leisurely, with the car keys turning a few times at her fingertips.

　　”I’ll be there soon, Mom.” Fu Yu held his strength and finally pushed on his shoes.

　　The child said that he and Chu Rong were going to pick up his brother from school, so Chu Rong’s live broadcast room fell into silence again. The big and the small left one after another, and the barrage seemed to have gotten used to the empty live broadcast room.

　　[Hey, light a cigarette, change the battlefield]

　　[I went to He Huan’s house next door. Brothers, if you have any news, please leave a comment in the super topic.]

　　[See you guys later]

　　[Switch to Ge Yinyu’s live broadcast room. Ge Yinyu will be visiting Fu’s house soon, and you will be able to see me.]

　　[Chu Rong really wants to cook by herself? Start kicking me, thank you]

　　[Haha, I want to see it too]

　　I don’t know if it’s thanks to the administrator, but the accounts with bad tone and harsh words in the live broadcast room have almost disappeared, and most of the remaining ones are Buddhist-friendly or lurking netizens who don’t like to post barrages.

　　In order to avoid being late due to traffic jams, Chu Rong left home half an hour earlier. As a result, the traffic conditions were good today, and Chu Rong and Fu Yu arrived within a few minutes of traffic jam.

　　”Mom, there’s no one here.” Fu Yu leaned on the car window, looking at the magnificent marble school gate across the road. The spacious exit was blocked by metal railings. There was no one at the school gate and it was silent.

　　Chu Rong looked at the time and realized that she was probably too early.

　　”The class isn’t over yet, let’s find a place to wait for brother.”

　　There were still more than ten minutes left. Chu Rong looked around and saw a bookshop with elegant decoration. “Come in and sit down. By the way, see if there are any good books.”

　　Chu Rong used to like spending time in bookstores. There were quite a few bookstores around the school. She finally found a sense of belonging. Even in novels, the decoration of bookstores was not much different from that in the real world.

　　Taking Fu Yu to stroll slowly in the bookstore, Chu Rong bought a few novels with interesting titles. One of them was called “Retrospection of the Severed”, which looked like a science fiction novel. Chu Rong didn’t want to take it at first, but Fu Yu, a curious ghost, pointed at the cover and said, “Mom, Fu!”

　　Fu Yu didn’t know many characters. Fu, as his surname, was one of the few words he knew that he was more familiar with. Therefore, when various characters were put together, Fu Yu could only see this character at a glance.

　　Chu Rong didn’t pay attention to the author’s habits, because she saw through Fu Yu’s short little finger that the author of this book was named Fu, ‘Fu04’.

　　”Fu 04?” This pen name is quite interesting. Chu Rong took the book down and decided to buy it back.

　　He went to the popular science and mechanical books section and took a look around. Chu Rong selected a few books that Fu Nian might like. After paying the bill, she looked at the time, and it was still three minutes to eleven. She managed the timing just right.

　　Because Chu Rong bought a lot of books, the owner of the book cafe saw the short little kid following her and couldn’t help but open the small box on his desk and took out two chocolates for him. “Thank you for your patronage. These are freshly unpacked. Can they be given to children?”

　　Fu Yu pulled Chu Rong’s clothes, looked at the two long chocolate bars, and then looked at Chu Rong.

　　”Ah, thank you then.” Chu Rong was holding a cloth bag filled with books. “Xiao Yu, this sister is giving you some candy. Take it.”

Fu Yu carefully tiptoed to take the chocolate and said thank you obediently: “Thank you, sister.”

　　”You’re welcome, you’re so cute. Can I touch your head?” The bookstore owner coughed softly and folded her hands, as if she was suppressing something.

　　This was a question for Fu Yu, and Chu Rong would not interrupt. She stood aside with a smile on her face, watching how Fu Yu would decide for himself.

　　Fu Yu’s black grape-like eyes opened wider. He was a little embarrassed, lowered his head and whispered, “You can touch it.”

　　The boss’s trembling hands quickly stroked Fu Yu’s head. What soft hair! If there were not only three chocolates in a box, and she had not had a naughty brother who was about to finish school, the bookstore owner would really like to give this little dumpling another one!

　　Under the eager gaze of the bookstore owner, Chu Rong left with the book, and Fu Yu waved to the owner shyly.

　　As soon as they left, the boss, who had been rather reserved, immediately opened her Weibo super topic and posted passionately.

　　Xiaoyuer and Books: Oh, sisters, I met Chu Rong and Xiaoyu! She came to my bookstore to buy books, and my eyes were almost glued to her face! Sister Rong is super beautiful and super white! She just wears a hat, I don’t know if it’s to cover the wound on her head. Xiaoyu has super big eyes and is so cute! I also gave Xiaoyu candy, and let me touch his head. You don’t know, he is really soft, just like a glutinous rice ball!

　　Members of the super topic left messages, asking her if she took any photos. The bookstore owner replied: I dare not! Sister Rong is too beautiful. Although she is very gentle, her aura is too strong. I dare not do it!

　　”Hello, has the book here been moved?”

　　The bookstore owner was chatting animatedly with a Weibo commenter when a gentle male voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

　　”Hmm? Which one?” The boss turned off her phone and smiled professionally. However, when she saw the man’s face, her professional smile deepened. “Which place are you talking about?”

　　The man had delicate features, and the white shirt and warm smile made his originally aloof temperament seem more approachable, like a gentle and patient brother next door.

　　”I saw it when I passed by in a hurry this morning, but I was in a hurry this morning and didn’t have time to buy it. There should be only one copy left, right?” The man did not look at the tall bookshelves, but paced beside the low table where the magazines were placed.

　　The bookstore owner looked at the magazines on the low table. This shouldn’t be the case. The books on there should all be multiple copies of the same type. They should not have been sold out yet.

　　”What’s the title of the book? Let me look it up for you.”

　　The man lowered his head and touched the corner of the table with an ambiguous expression, then gave a polite smile: “Please check this book, ‘Retrospection of the Severed’.”

　　-

　　At the bustling elementary school gate, there were many parents like Chu Rong who came to pick up their children. Chu Rong was afraid that Fu Nian couldn’t see her, so she stood in a front position.

　　However, she underestimated Fu Nian. Before she stretched her neck to see Fu Nian, Fu Nian had already seen Chu Rong. Even though Chu Rong was wearing a big baseball cap on her head, Fu Nian still noticed her at first sight.

　　”elder brother!”

　　Fu Nian came over and patted Fu Yu’s little head. Fu Yu, who was looking around with Chu Rong, was startled. When he saw it was Fu Nian, he waved the chocolate bar in his hand in surprise, “Look, I have candy.”

　　”Niannian, come out. I didn’t see you just now.” Chu Rong suspected that her baseball cap blocked her vision. In order to see a wider view, Chu Rong slightly raised her head. Maybe because of this, she missed Fu Nian’s figure.

　　”Yeah.” Fu Nian accepted the chocolate bar that Fu Yu gave him, “Isn’t it hot wearing a hat?” He noticed that Chu Rong was unusual. It was July and the temperature was not low. Chu Rong, who felt hot even with the air conditioner on at night, was wearing a hat.

　　”It’s hot, so let’s go home quickly.” Chu Rong hurriedly opened the car door and turned on the air conditioner. The cold air wrapped around her skin. Chu Rong felt like a stranded fish thrown into the water and was instantly rescued.

　　”We’ll have guests coming to our house soon.” Chu Rong started the car. “Would Niannian mind?”

　　Fu Nian, who was sitting in the back row helping Fu Yu peel the chocolate wrapper, shook his head when he heard this, “No.”

　　It was so considerate that the little man in Chu Rong’s heart had already kissed Fu Nian crazily for several times, and asked calmly on the surface: “Are you doing well in school?”

　　”Yeah.” Fu Nian nodded. He touched his bulging schoolbag, paused for a few seconds, and said casually, “It’s the end of the semester. I brought my textbooks back.”

　　”Is that so? That’s great. It must have been very heavy when it came out?” Chu Rong secretly glanced at Fu Nian in the rearview mirror. His ears were obviously red, but he was still pretending.

　　”No, it’s very light.” Fu Nian looked at the scenery passing by outside the window, “Just a few books.” How many books can a first grader have?

　　Chu Rong nodded, and there was silence in the car, with only the faint sound of Fu Yu eating chocolate.

　　”Xiaoyu and I bought a few books, and I bought four for you, but I don’t know if you like them. If you don’t like them, I’ll keep them for myself.” Chu Rong suddenly caught sight of a pocket of books on the co-pilot’s seat, and then she remembered that she bought them based on Fu Nian’s hobbies, and if she read them herself, she would definitely not be able to finish them. If Fu Nian didn’t like them, she might have just read the general content and put them on the bookshelf to gather dust.

　　Fu Nian’s movement of looking sideways at the scenery changed. He raised his chin slightly and only saw a bit of beige fabric exposed on the passenger seat.

　　Unexpectedly, he could receive a book. After stretching his neck to look for a few times without success, Fu Nian unexpectedly met Chu Rong’s smiling eyes in the rearview mirror. It turned out that he had leaned forward a lot without realizing it. Fu Nian felt a little embarrassed for being caught peeking. He sat back, poked his palm, and said slowly: “Thank you.”

　　”You’re welcome~” Chu Rong raised her eyebrows in a disapproving manner, and her tone changed dramatically.
