Mother Yan looked strangely at the live comments scrolling across the screen.
She turned to Father Yan with a pained expression. "Xian Jue isn't going to get beaten up, is he?"
Father Yan fell silent for a moment. He wanted to say no, but after seeing Yan Xianjue's antics on the show, his conscience wouldn't let him say it.
But seeing his wife's concern, he still forced the words out. "He brought bodyguards."
The moment they learned Yan Xianjue's variety show had started airing, the two of them sitting on the sofa fell into silence.
Father Yan proposed a possibility. "Maybe it's just for the show?"
Mother Yan spoke with a cold expression. "Do you believe that yourself?"
No matter how thick their filter was for their youngest son, they couldn't say this was entirely the show director Lei Xuan's fault!
It was obviously Yan Xianjue's twisted sense of humor.
Mother Yan kept up her cold expression for a while, but quickly broke character.
She smiled gently again. "Forget it. As long as Xian Jue is having fun, it's fine. He should know where the line is. He won't really go too far."
Father Yan nodded in agreement.
"If Xian Jue really had no sense of restraint, Yan Ci wouldn't be foolish enough to keep playing with him after being bullied so many times."
"With his personality, after getting bullied twice, he'd avoid Xian Jue the next time."

Father Yan and Mother Yan turned around at the same time and saw Yan Ci changing his shoes in the entryway.
Father Yan said, "Sure enough, you can't talk badly about people behind their backs. Got caught red-handed."
