After the Sheng family left, the living room fell into silence.
Feng Jingxu stood with his hands in his pockets next to Sheng Xia, watching her lower her head and absentmindedly swipe her phone screen since the two guests left, seeming quite upset. His thin lips moved slightly, but for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
Although he had long known that Sheng Xia was not favored at home, which led to her crazy jealousy of her step-sister, he didn’t expect it to be so extreme. Not only was her stepmother full of schemes, but her father also never cared about her, constantly comparing her to her step-sister.
In such a family, it was no wonder Sheng Xia’s personality had become so twisted.
Even with such a stepmother, when she had the same status, she didn’t become like Lin Yuezhen. Thinking about the situation just now, Sheng Xia still tried to comfort herself, which made Feng Jingxu feel even more uncomfortable but also somewhat soft.
He cleared his throat. “Uh, are you okay now?”
Sheng Xia still kept her head down and didn’t respond.
“It’s just some people who aren’t worth caring about, as you said before, they will regret it sooner or later. You… should let it go. It’s not worth feeling sorry for them.” The young man frowned even tighter, obviously not used to this kind of atmosphere, and awkwardly tried to comfort her, “Just like me back then, being criticized by those people over and over again, I got used to it. Now, it’s nothing—”
“Huh? Xiaoxu, what did you say?” Sheng Xia suddenly looked up, innocent look on her face. “I was just chatting with Shaoyun. Could you say it again?”
Feng Jingxu: “…”
Thinking about how he had just awkwardly said those messy words, the young man stiffened in place, feeling his temples throbbing, and the veins on his forehead pulsating.
Damn, he actually felt sorry for Sheng Xia. Was he really that idle? Believing that she would be upset, huh, it was better to believe that pigs can fly!
“Really, Shaoyun said that her entry for the competition has been submitted for judging.” Sheng Xia smiled and waved her phone, “So as soon as I saw it, I immediately replied to congratulate her. Xiaoxu, you’re not angry, are you?”
Feng Jingxu was about to flare up, but he was immediately suppressed: “Shaoyun is participating in a competition? What competition?”
“Shaoyun has made great progress in painting recently, and her teacher thinks highly of her, so he let her participate in an important painting competition. Huh, Xiaoxu, you didn’t know?”
He subconsciously took out his phone and found that Shaoyun’s WeChat was still blank, obviously she hadn’t intended to share it with him: “…”
Damn, was he isolated?!
Feng Jingxu, who didn’t know that Shaoyun was going to participate in the competition and that her work had been submitted for judging, made an “oh” sound expressionlessly, pretending he didn’t know anything, and put down his phone, subconsciously glanced at Feng Yan’s direction.
Then he saw that the man had also made the same move, and at this moment, he was frowning and looking at his phone, obviously not receiving any messages.
…Feng Jingxu suddenly felt a relief. Its okay, its balanced
Shaoyun was fair, she didn’t tell anyone except Sheng Xia.
“What competition?” Although he felt the gloating gaze from his son, Feng Yan remained calm, withdrew his phone without changing his expression, and casually asked.
He didn’t feel the cold treatment from his sister, just asked with concern, “When did Shaoyun tell Xiaxia?”
“How would I remember that? I’m not an art major.” Sheng Xia spoke sincerely, “So since you care so much about Shaoyun, why don’t you just ask her directly?”
“ Just shut up all of you okay, and be happy for her “
Feng Yan nodded slightly without changing his expression. “Xiaxia is right.”
Looking at his spineless father, Feng Jingxu rolled his eyes at Sheng Xia, “I’d like to ask too, but she has to be willing to respond.”
Sheng Xia immediately changed her tone, “Then… could you please move your noble finger?”
Feng Jingxu: “…”
Although she ruthlessly mocked them, later, Sheng Xia still lowered her head and pulled them all into a group chat. “Okay, now you can congratulate Shaoyun directly.”
On the other hand, Feng Shaoyu, who was still arguing with clients and feeling exhausted, suddenly heard his phone ringing continuously. Taking advantage of the client’s inattention, he secretly clicked on it and found himself being added to a strange group chat at some point.
Feng Shaoyu: ?
A harmonious family Groupchat, is this a group chat set up by his sister-in-law?
He glanced at the client, who was still talking endlessly, skillfully manipulated his phone without attracting attention, and after reading for a while, finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that Shaoyun was going to participate in a competition, and her work had been submitted for judging. Indeed, he should congratulate her.
A gentle smile appeared on Feng Shaoyu’s face, but then he stiffened: Wait a minute, Shaoyun is going to participate in a competition, and everyone else seems to know, why is it that he’s the only one who doesn’t know??
Is he not standing tall enough that she can’t see him? Why is Shaoyun isolating her third brother!!
But before he could speak, he saw his sister-in-law send another message.
【AAA The Most Beautiful Sinful Woman: Let’s celebrate Shaoyun’s award-winning painting tonight.】
【AAA The Most Beautiful Sinful Woman: Shaoyun is in the top three in her profession, winning an award will be a piece of cake, right?】
【Hamster Yuyun: Sister-in-law, it’s just submitted for judging, I didn’t won an award yet…】
【Hamster Yuyun: Not exactly…】
【Hamster Yuyun: (Hamster shaking head.gif)】
【Ninth Day: @Sheng Xia Don’t bully Shaoyun, she’s slow at typing, you’ve forced her to only use emojis. But still, congratulations Shaoyun, can we celebrate together tonight?】
【Feng Yan: I’ve already arranged for the theater in Jiangzhou to be reserved, just for our family. Is that okay?】
【Hamster Yuyun: Approving eyes.jpg】
【AAA The Most Beautiful Sinful Woman: Since Shaoyun’s work has been submitted for the competition, don’t forget I’m still waiting for the CG image, the second version should be out by now (There’s no difficult work, only brave doggies.jpg)】
【Hamster Yuyun: I-I got it, sister-in-law QAQ】
【Ninth Day: Wait, what’s the CG image again? Do you two have too many secrets?】
【AAA The Most Beautiful Sinful Woman: Because secrets make women more charming^_^】
【AAA The Most Beautiful Sinful Woman: After all, I’m not a devilish client.jpg】
【Hamster Yuyun: ……】
……
…
Seeing that his family had already agreed on a celebration venue for the evening, Feng Shaoyu suddenly turned pale: Wait, did you forget something? Are you leaving now?!
He typed frantically:
【Wait, did you forget that someone is missing from this family?】
【Congratulations Shaoyun on participating in the competition, you’ll definitely win! Even though Third Brother just found out about this news (feeling wronged)】
Feng Yan: 【Have you signed your contract?】
Sheng Xia: 【Have you signed your contract?】
Feng Jingxu: 【Have you signed your contract?】
Feng Shaoyun hesitated for a moment, then decided to copy the chat: 【Have you signed your contract?】
Finally becoming the focus of the family group chat, Feng Shaoyu: “…”
After the family celebration, Sheng Xia returned to her leisurely life of lying down and playing games every day, occasionally tormenting her poor sister-in-law by forcing her to revise her drawings as the devilish client.
Except for one thing, whenever Feng Yan was home, he would supervise her rehabilitation.
Sheng Xia hadn’t lied before. Although her legs had indeed recovered quite well, they were still fractured after all, and she had been sitting in a wheelchair for over two months, so her leg joints had become somewhat stiff.
Acting like she was about to faint in the hospital did have an element of acting, but the pain was real.
Of course, she wasn’t afraid of pain, it’s just that she was a bit lazy to move.
Unfortunately, this man, every time he came home, would first ask her if she had exercised, and then personally take her for lower limb training.
In this regard, even her biased servants wouldn’t lie. They would even help supervise, leaving her no chance to try to lie or deceive.
—Didn’t this just bring out Sheng Xia’s rebellious nature?
“The doctor said that if you don’t exercise properly, your leg muscles may atrophy. What if one day you really need to stand up, but Xiaxia finds out that she can’t walk? What will we do then?”
In the training room, Feng Yan gently and firmly helped her up, coaxing her in a gentle voice, “You need to exercise.”
“Does it hurt a lot? If it does, just let me know, I’ll be gentler.”
After completing a set of exercises, Sheng Xia comfortably put her whole weight on him. “Ah, I can’t go on, my chest hurts so much.”
Feng Yan casually supported her slender waist, gently revealing the truth, “You’re pressing the wrong spot, Xiaxia.”
So Sheng Xia calmly changed her position, resting her head against his chest, pitifully saying, “Can’t we take a break, dear? Let me tell you a secret, I’ve already secretly completed a set before, and the amount of exercise is almost up to standard.”
Although physical contact between them was inevitable during training, this was the first time Sheng Xia had made such an intimate move. Feng Yan’s body tensed imperceptibly for a moment, then quickly relaxed.
“Really?” He lowered his head to look at her, his eyes flickering, “It seems that Xiaxia is indeed working very hard today, and her condition is very good. So, why don’t we do another set while we’re at it?”
Huh, this man really can’t be swayed.
Sheng Xia weakly agreed, her eyes wandering. Suddenly, she looked up and met his seemingly calm black eyes, innocently asking, “If I finish three sets of training today, dear, do you have any rewards for me?”
“What reward does Xiaxia want? A gift or dinner out?”
“Anything? Then—” Sheng Xia’s pink lips curled up, the corners of her eyes carrying a sly smile, “Can I touch your abs?”
This unexpected answer made Feng Yan silent for a few seconds, repeating inexplicably, “Abs?”
At this moment, Sheng Xia’s forehead was slightly sweaty, her body exuding the scent of peaches, her usually pale face now flushed after exercise, no longer looking so fragile.
With a pitiful expression in her eyes, she was so beautiful that it was hard to look away. “What’s wrong, is it not allowed?”
Seeing the man remain silent, Sheng Xia’s restless fingers were already touching his abdominal area through his clothes, dragging out the end of her sentence gently, “But I’ve already felt it, really not allowed?”
Feng Yan looked down at her, his eyes flickering. Then he lightly opened his lips, his voice carrying a hint of temptation, “I am very expensive. Xiaxia, are you really ready?”
Sheng Xia widened her beautiful eyes, “How expensive? As your dear wife, can’t I afford it?”
The man pretended to ponder for a moment, then said casually, “Let’s add ten more sets of exercises each day. I think Xiaoxia should be willing to do it for me.”
But before he could finish his sentence, he clearly felt the hand that was moving against his abdomen hesitate, then attempt to quietly withdraw.
Seeing her pretending to be calm, Feng Yan’s lips curled up, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
Sheng Xia earnestly placed her hand on his chest, maintaining a dignified distance from him, “Mr. Feng, please don’t disturb my last set of training. I’ll be able to rest soon.”
Feng Yan seemed to smile, his chest slightly trembling, “Wasn’t Xiaxia just trying to negotiate with me? Now, don’t you want to touch anymore?”
He emphasized the word “touch” heavily, his tone cold, creating a stark contrast.
However, Sheng Xia was not tempted at all, her face showing no desire or want, “I’ve thought about it carefully, Mr. Feng, you’re not worth that much. Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. What if it looks good but is actually useless?”
Feng Yan: “…”
And so, in the battle of wits with the man, Sheng Xia’s daily training increased from three sets to five sets. The first episode of “Super Mom” was finally edited into a full episode and aired.
Although live broadcasts allow for real-time interaction, not everyone has the energy to stay in the live stream all day. There will always be some missed segments. This is where the advantage of the edited version comes in. It not only cuts out the boring daily scenes but also accurately extracts the exciting interactions and jokes of the guests, ensuring that viewers don’t miss any interesting moments.
Whether it’s people who are too lazy to follow the live broadcast and prefer to watch the edited version, or viewers who have watched the live broadcast and want to relive it, they can’t help but watch.
At this time, the program team announced the recording time and location of the second episode.
It was an Ancient town in the southern city.
In the promotional trailer released, the town was beautiful and full of ancient charm, very appealing. They also emphasized some clips of artisans, hinting at something.
