"Have you all eaten your fill?" Chen Liqing asked, holding up a megaphone.

"I'm full!"

The baby chicks' loud, babbling voices made the birds perched in the trees grumble and fly away.

"I have good news for you all. You don't need to find your own ingredients today."

After Chen Liqing finished speaking, he observed their expressions, but not a single person smiled; they all had blank faces.

She gazed at him intently.

Chen Liqing: "... But you only need to complete a small game to freely choose ten kinds of ingredients from those prepared by the production team."

Everyone wore expressions of "I knew it!"

Gu Wancheng asked, "What game?"

"About painting."

Gu Wancheng's eyes lit up: Painting, isn't that a perfect match for his major? It's what he's best at.

Some are happy, some are sad; this specifically refers to Jian Yue.

After hearing this, he looked distressed, as if the sky had fallen.

Everyone knows he's terrible with his hands; drawing, something that requires a lot of dexterity, is really difficult for him. He'd rather find the ingredients himself.

Zhao Chengyu frowned, sensing something was amiss. "What exactly is this game like?"

Everyone else turned to look at Chen Liqing after hearing this.

Chen Liqing laughed and said, "In the drawing relay race, I will show the first person what they want to draw, and then they will draw a rough outline. Then you will take turns adding details, and finally the production team will judge your completion and similarity."

"Of course, the lower the similarity, the less ingredients you get. Do you understand?"

QAQ

Gu Wancheng froze, her eyes lifeless. Wasn't this the end?!

Given Chen Liqing's tendency to cause trouble, it's obvious that the first person he'll target is Jian Yue.

Gu Wancheng thought of, others could also think of.

So he turned to look at Jian Yue.

The instantly captivating Jian Yue: "..." I'm impressed.

[Haha, trying to stir up trouble, huh!]

[ Brother Jian, you better step up your game! How much food we get to eat today depends on you!]

Jian Yue felt as if he was carrying a heavy burden.

Chu Yi'an leaned close to his ear and comforted him, "It's okay, don't be nervous."

Jian Yue suddenly looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, its fur standing on end, and it cautiously took a step to the side.

His eyes darted around. "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not nervous."

Chu Yi'an's lips curled up slightly, his eyes filled with laughter, and he did not refute her.

[Smirking face]

[ Brother Jian, why have you suddenly become so cute?! Shocking! jpg]

I knew they were having an affair!

[I'm shipping this couple first! Cheers! jpg]

Gu Wancheng crossed her arms, knowing she could only do her best. It didn't matter if she got less food; the production team wouldn't let these little ones go hungry anyway.

Xu Xiashi: "Let's begin, stop with your nonsense."

Chen Liqing: "..." Which of his sentences was nonsense? (biting handkerchief. jpg)

"Let's begin, Jian Yue the first one."

Others: Just as I expected.

Chen Liqing continued, " Zhao Chengyu is second, Chu Yi'an is third, Jiang Yu is fourth, Xu Xiashi is fifth, and Gu Wancheng is sixth. Did you all hear that clearly?"

Zhao Chengyu: So? Why put him among them?

The tables prepared by the production team were like those in an office, with partitions, but the partitions were much higher than those in an office, so unless you stood up, you couldn't see the movements of the people next to you.

The group took their seats one by one.

This scene seemed familiar, and the audience racked their brains trying to recall what it was like, but their brain cells were racing wildly, showing no intention of listening to their bodies.

Audience: This guy's got a screw loose, he's always unreliable when it matters.

[This... looks familiar, but I'm not sure, let me take another look.]

[What does it look like...? (Can't remember, scratches head frantically)]

Chen Liqing took out a photo and handed it to Jian Yue.

Jian Yue glance down revealed:!

A cat's eye snail is clearly visible in the photo.

Mumu looked up at Chen Liqing, and just as he was about to speak, Chen Liqing immediately stopped him, "Teacher Jian, you can't talk, okay?"

[Ugh, I feel like throwing up.]

[Don't try to act cute or charming, you old codger!]

Upon hearing the last syllable of his voice, Jian Yue lowered her head with a look of disgust.

Chen Liqing reached up and touched his face: Is he really that disgusting? Is it a matter of appearance? He's not bad-looking at all!

If Jian Yue knew what he was thinking, she would definitely roll her eyes at him. How can a child acting cute and charming with a handsome man or beautiful woman be the same as an average-looking bald uncle acting cute and charming? It would be a favor if he didn't punch him.

But soon, Jian Yue had no time to think about anything else. He held the photo and racked his brains. He could only draw a rough sketch, but how could he draw it so that it wouldn't go completely off-track?

I'm speechless, they're really obsessed with cat's eye snails!

Jian Yue rubbed his hair in frustration, his face filled with utter despair.

Feeling bored, Gu Wancheng decided to start drawing on the paper provided by the production team.

[ Chengcheng has started writing. Is Chengcheng going to draw?]

Where is my royal photographer? Come forward at once and let me see him!

Photographer Xiao Liu, with keen insight, pointed his lens at Gu Wancheng's hand and the papers on his table.

Suddenly, a close-up shot was taken of his fair and slender hands.

[Those hands are so white! Drooling. jpg]

[This hand... this paper... wait, Chengcheng, you draw so casually, how can you still draw so well! Shocking jpg]

This comment startled the viewers who were still confused, and they quickly went to see what he had drawn.

They stared in disbelief as Gu Wancheng propped her head up, and a chibi-style figure appeared on the paper.

He drew a chibi version of Chaochao, with her curly hair growing wildly and unruly, her eyes closed and her cheeks puffed out, clearly showing that she was angry.

No... my hands and your hands seem different...

Why are Chengcheng's hands so obedient, while mine are so rebellious?

After finishing the drawing, Gu Wancheng looked for Chaochao.

Chaochao and his friends were sitting in a row behind them, holding their milk and watching them. Gu Wancheng waved to him.

Chaochao tilted her head and looked at him, then suddenly her eyes lit up as a small light bulb appeared on her head.

I slid off the chair, grabbed the milk, and ran over.

"Dad, you drink." Chaochao shoved the milk into Gu Wancheng's mouth.

Gu Wancheng was immediately exasperated. Who wanted to drink his milk? So she politely declined his offer.

And she handed him the finished painting.

Chaochao took it blankly. "Is this for me?"

"Yes, do you like it?"

Chaochao at the chibi-style figure on the paper, with its curly hair, it was clearly him. He was smiling, his eyes crinkling into crescents.

"Like!"

After saying that, he excitedly ran off to show off the paper to his friends.

"Look, my dad drew this for me! It's me!"

Chaochao held the painting to her chest, and the children's mouths gaped open in surprise.

Seeing their expressions, Chaochao's tail practically wagged in the air.

Mi Tu and Xiaolin: "Wow!"

Zuozuo: " Uncle Gu is so amazing! My brother can't even draw a circle."

Tongtong thought for a moment and said, " Chaochao, can we ask Uncle Gu to draw for us too?"

Xiaoxiao rarely reacted; her eyes held a hint of expectation.

Chaochao shook her head. "No."

Tongtong and the others immediately felt downcast.

The next second, Chaochao said, "I can't agree to that. You'll have to ask them yourselves."

His gloomy mood vanished instantly, and he immediately walked towards Gu Wancheng.

Gu Wancheng watched as Chaochao mumbled something to them, and then they walked towards him.

But we can roughly guess what they're planning to do.
