Yes, that must be it!
Su Huaiming is a very scheming and vain person. He did this to curry favor with him... Zhou Hanyan in the role of the hater, his thoughts wandered, and he imagined a series of conspiracies.
This action seems more like self-hypnosis, or making excuses for one's earlier excitement.
Because of Su Huaiming's outstanding performance, the five opponents were also quite excited and started chatting with Su Huaiming in the public chat.
They weren't angry at all, nor did they want revenge; they just wanted to curry favor with Su Huaiming and arrange to play again next time.
Su Huaiming, with a strawberry milk lollipop in his mouth and a handsome face, played the game expressionlessly, showing no excitement despite the flattery, and politely declined the offers from the five people opposite him.
With Su Huaiming around, even though Sun Siyuan and Zhou Hanyan completely collapsed, they still easily won the game.
Sun Siyuan, still wanting more, said, "Let's play one more round!"
It was still early, and all five of them were in high spirits from the game they had just played, so they immediately nodded in agreement.
Su Huaiming and the other three entered the room, but Zhou Hanyan didn't know how to get in.
As the homeowner, Ji Mingzhe wanted to go to the bathroom, so he asked Su Huaiming to bring Zhou Hanyan in.
Su Huaiming searched for a long time but couldn't find Zhou Hanyan, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Yu Ruicheng noticed this and said, "You can recruit him from a friend."
Su Huaiming looked completely bewildered. "Han Yan isn't on my friend list."
"How could that be?" Yu Ruicheng said casually. "Zhou Hanyan's WeChat name is Cute Bunny. Didn't you just add him today?"
Upon hearing this, both Su Huaiming and Zhou Hanyan froze.
Zhou Hanyan said it was because the name was too embarrassing and seriously inconsistent with his macho image, and Yu Ruicheng the camera!
Su Huaiming, recalling their WeChat conversation, looked at Zhou Hanyan with a complicated expression and said meaningfully, "So, you're the Cute Bunny!"
"..."
Zhou Hanyan was losing face, but still forced a smile and said, "That's right, so what?"
Su Huaiming hadn't expected Zhou Hanyan so girlish at heart. He tried hard to appear calm and said dryly, "It's nothing, I'm fine."
The viewers in the live chat were practically bursting with laughter upon hearing this conversation.
[Haha, Zhou Hanyan, I never expected you to be this kind of person!]
[Even a guy's WeChat name is more girly than mine, suddenly I have mixed feelings...]
[Yu Ruicheng said his profile picture is also a little bunny, is it the pink and cute kind?]
[It's not surprising at all that boys like bunnies! doge emoji]
In front of Zhou Hanyan, Su Huaiming felt embarrassed and went back to WeChat to add him back.
Zhou Hanyan blushed with embarrassment. He suddenly wanted to change his profile picture and name back to the original ones, but considering how much he had invested, he knew it would be a huge loss to back out now, so he gritted his teeth and accepted it.
But the torment did not end there.
Sun Siyuan was engrossed in the game and hadn't noticed this. Now, looking at Zhou Hanyan's name and avatar, he felt disgusted and wanted to ejaculate on the spot.
Sun Siyuan mercilessly exposed Zhou Hanyan, "You can eat five rabbit heads in one go, and you still dare to call yourself 'Cute Bunny'? Aren't you afraid that rabbits will line up and stand at your bedside at night?!"
Zhou Hanyan: "..."
"I, I, I like rabbits, what does that have to do with me eating rabbit heads!" Zhou Hanyan blushed, her brain almost stopped working, and she started rambling incoherently.
Sun Siyuan's gaze towards him became even stranger. "Is this the legendary 'If you love him, you have to eat him'?!"
Zhou Hanyan: "..."
Sun Siyuan rubbed his arms, almost shivering. "That's a pervert. I really want to call the police and have you arrested."
Zhou Hanyan felt a sudden boom in his ears, and his brain completely stopped working.
Ji Mingzhe had just come out of the bathroom when he saw the scene before him. He stopped in his tracks and looked at Zhou Hanyan with great concern.
"Hanyan, are you alright? Why is your face so red?" Seeing Zhou Hanyan looking like he was having trouble breathing, Ji Mingzhe sincerely suggested, "Are you feeling unwell? Should you go to the hospital?"
"..." Ahhh, kill me already!!
Seeing that Zhou Hanyan was practically ready to bang his head against a wall, and fearing a bloody incident might occur, Su Huaiming took the initiative to ease the tension, saying, "It's nothing, Brother Ji is back, I'll start the game now."
Sun Siyuan's attention was diverted, and he nodded, "Let's start, I'm playing mid lane this game."
Ji Mingzhe blurted out instinctively, "I can play bot lane."
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him anymore, Zhou Hanyan breathed a long sigh of relief and looked at Su Huaiming with a complicated expression.
Thanks to Su Huaiming for helping him out of that predicament, otherwise he would have suffered mental torture.
In just one night, Su Huaiming had already helped him twice. Zhou Hanyan's heart wasn't made of stone; how could he remain unmoved?
But his thinking was clearly off track; he felt that Su Huaiming was cunning and shrewd, and had set his sights on him.
With this in mind, Zhou Hanyan became even more vigilant, wanting to erect an impenetrable wall between the two of them to completely shut out Su Huaiming's sweet-coated bullets!
After playing five rounds of the game, it was time for the children to rest. The adults reluctantly turned off the game and agreed to play again another day.
After Zhou Hanyan returned, he remembered his mission to expose Su Huaiming's true colors. He was about to continue when he saw the chat logs and felt completely awkward.
He thought for a few seconds, then put down his phone without hesitation.
Never mind, I'll lick it another day.
Next time for sure.
****
The next morning, the director issued a new task. "We need a child to help everyone find our informant and get clues from him. This is a very important task. Which child wants to take on the challenge?"
Fu Xiaoxiao raised her hand sharply, jumping up and down as she shouted, "Me!"
The other three children were very considerate; seeing how eager Fu Xiaoxiao was, they didn't try to take it from him.
The director glanced at everyone present before nodding. "Then, this task will be completed by Xiao Xiao and Su Huaiming together."
Su Huaiming had no objections and took Fu Xiaoxiao out to find the whistleblower, following the map provided by the production team.
The two walked for more than ten minutes. At first, Fu Xiaoxiao was very excited, looking around as if she couldn't wait to find the whistleblower. But now she was clasping her hands, her face was wrinkled, and her lips were so pouty that you could hang a bottle of sesame oil on them.
How boring! I'd rather play with Xuanxuan and the others.
Fu Xiaoxiao regretted it and didn't want to continue, so she tugged at Su Huaiming's clothes and said matter-of-factly, "I don't want to complete the mission anymore, let's go back!"
Su Huaiming wasn't buying it. "You volunteered to complete the task, so you must keep your word."
"But I can't walk anymore," Fu Xiaoxiao continued. "I want to go back and play with Xuanxuan, and I also want to watch cartoons."
Su Huaiming said calmly, "You can go back and watch cartoons after you've completed the mission."
Fu Xiaoxiao, always mindful of time, frowned slightly. "But by the time we get back, the cartoon will be over!"
Fu Xiaoxiao stomped his foot angrily, as if someone had bullied him, "Why won't you let me watch cartoons!"
"When you promised the director, didn't you think about the time conflict with watching cartoons?" Su Huaiming repeated, "You have to keep your promise. Besides, if you don't get the clues, everyone won't be able to complete the next mission, Xuanxuan and the others will be very disappointed."
Although Fu Xiaoxiao was immature and couldn't think about complicated things, he vaguely sensed the consequences of not keeping his promise, which put psychological pressure on him.
Children don't feel guilty; they just express their thoughts even more strongly. Fu Xiaoxiao stomped her feet angrily and said stubbornly, "I just want to go back and play with Xuanxuan, and I want to watch cartoons. I didn't do anything wrong!"
"Neither of the two things is wrong in themselves. The mistake is that you didn't think things through before agreeing to the director's request. Now it's too late for you to back out." Su Huaiming didn't want to indulge Fu Xiaoxiao and said with a frown.
Fu Xiaoxiao has always been pampered and spoiled, and he hasn't made any mistakes recently. Fu Jingfan has also been very kind to him, which has caused Fu Xiaoxiao to revert to his old ways, feeling that everyone should go along with him.
Fu Xiaoxiao tugged at Su Huaiming's clothes, shaking her body incessantly, her mouth never closing as she uttered indistinct complaints.
Su Huaiming kept his arms crossed and refused to back down.
Fu Xiaoxiao really didn't know what to do. In a moment of impulse, she instinctively chose the old trick—stomping her feet and then lying down on the ground, trying to cheat in this way.
Su Huaiming hadn't seen this scene in a long time, and he raised an eyebrow in curiosity.
The first time they met, Fu Xiaoxiao also lay on the ground, but after being ignored by him, she never dared to do it again. This time, she actually lay down directly in the street!
Seeing that Fu Xiaoxiao hadn't learned her lesson, Fu Xiaoxiao Su Huaiming seized the opportunity to correct her bad habit.
Su Huaiming remained calm, but the production crew panicked, fearing a broadcast mishap. They tried to mediate the conflict, but sensing the subtle tension between the father and son, they dared not approach.
Fu Xiaoxiao lay on the ground, unable to maintain her sullen demeanor, but her aura had weakened considerably. She blinked her large eyes, gazing longingly at Su Huaiming.
Su Huaiming didn't offer Fu Xiaoxiao a way out, but instead asked the production crew to keep an eye on Fu Xiaoxiao before turning and leaving.
The viewers in the live stream also saw this scene and started discussing it.
[Haha, well done! Su Huaiming did what I've wanted to do for a long time!]
[I'm all too familiar with this scene; my son does it too. If I don't buy him what he wants, he just lies on the floor and throws a tantrum.]
It's normal for kids to throw tantrums; Su Huaiming didn't need to get so angry that he abandoned him.
[Yes, children don't understand, but adults should have the basic ability to control their emotions. If they get angry over such a small thing, how can they possibly educate their children properly?]
[Do you really think your stepfather will treat Xiao Xiao like his own daughter? Don't be fooled by Su Huaiming's previous behavior; he doesn't care about Xiao Xiao at all!]
The production crew anticipated the direction of public opinion and anxiously paced back and forth, watching the direction Su Huaiming had left in, hesitating whether to send someone to chase Su Huaiming.
Fu Xiaoxiao was still lying on the ground, her little face wrinkled and her lips pouting.
He was initially a little guilty, realizing that lying on the ground wasn't a good idea, but after the staff coaxed him softly, Fu Xiaoxiao immediately realized that these adults were someone he could bully, and he lay on the ground even more confidently.
Only after the adults are flustered and forced to agree to his demands will he consider whether or not to get up.
After a good ten minutes, the production crew finally spotted Su Huaiming.
They were overjoyed and were about to persuade Su Huaiming to come over when they saw that Su Huaiming's hands were full of various things.
?????
When Su Huaiming got closer, they realized that Su Huaiming was carrying milk tea, and there was a shop assistant following behind him with various desserts.
Amidst the stunned gazes of the crowd, Su Huaiming walked over with a smile on his face, appearing quite composed, and warmly distributed milk tea and cake to everyone.
As Su Huaiming walked along this road, he smelled the aroma of the cake shop and really wanted to try it. Just then, Fu Xiaoxiao was lying on the ground and wouldn't leave, so Su Huaiming seized the opportunity to go on a shopping spree in the shop and even bought some cakes for the staff.
The crew members, looking at the milk tea and cake in their hands, were completely bewildered by Su Huaiming's actions. They stood stiffly to the side, as if being punished.
Su Huaiming took a sip of milk tea, squinted his eyes in a good mood, looked at the staff standing next to him, patted the seat next to him, and took the initiative to invite them, "Come and sit down, you've been following us for so long, it must be tiring. Eat something and get some rest."
