by MarineTLChapter 62: Brother is a Big Star – 8
The internet was in an uproar over the recent events. Meanwhile, Ren Xin returned with a basket on her back, huffing and puffing as she led Yuanyuan along.
“Oh, Brother… I really hauled a pig trough1 over a thousand miles, and it was all for you!”
Ren Sen: “………”
【Hahahahaha…】
【Sister Xin’s roasts might be late, but they always arrive.】
【Can we stop fighting? I watch variety shows for fun, not to see you people get into brainless scraps.】
【This so-called ‘fan circle culture’ is truly a plague.】
【Sister Xin’s top-tier vocabulary scores another big point~】
【Am I the only one who feels bad for Brother Ren Sen? Hhhhh.】
Ren Xin had secured the most supplies: shrimp, meat, some green vegetables, and most impressively, a few eggs.
Ren Xin looked at Ren Sen skeptically. “Brother, you need to remember that you only have one biological younger sister. So, you’d better tell the truth: do you actually know how to cook?”
“I don’t!”
“Heh… A ‘versatile entertainer’? I guess your persona just collapsed!”
Ren Sen explained helplessly, “I never said I was a versatile entertainer. You, my anti-fan, should stop talking now.”
“Not even versatile? The domestic entertainment industry is truly doomed.”
Terrified, Ren Sen quickly covered Ren Xin’s mouth. “My little ancestor2, you can’t just say things like that!”
【Let go of my Sister Xin! Let her speak! Is she wrong? Every word is the honest truth.】
【Is Sister Xin considering a debut? I’ll definitely stan her~】
In the end, Chen Qiong took over the cooking duties. “I only know how to make some home-cooked dishes; they’re edible, but I wouldn’t call them gourmet. If you don’t mind, let’s do this together. Little Ren, you can be my assistant. The two babies have worked hard, so you can play off to the side.”
“Okay!”
“Okay-dokie!”
Yuanyuan listened intently to Ren Xin’s rambling, though Ren Xin believed she was seriously telling stories to soothe the child.
Yuan Bao leaned in curiously and asked, “Your name is Ren Xin—is that the same as the really expensive ‘Ginseng’? My grandpa has one, and he usually won’t even let me touch it.”
Ren Xin always had a bit of tolerance for well-behaved children. “While it’s not the same name, I am equally precious. Ginseng is indeed a good thing.”
Li Zexuan also leaned over and said bluntly, “Ren Xin isn’t worth anything. Only ginseng is valuable…”
Ren Xin shot him a sidelong glance, unwilling to acknowledge him. She continued talking with Yuanyuan and Yuan Bao.
【Ren Xin is so rude. She’s actually forming cliques here.】
【She’s only three years old. To the person above, are you even human?】
【Children are the best at sensing good and evil. Li Zexuan wasn’t very friendly to begin with, so why should Sister Xin play with him?】
【Can everyone stop being so malicious toward children? They’re still small and don’t understand anything!】
This little interlude didn’t cause much of a stir, and soon it was time to eat.
Chen Qiong called out to them loudly, “Dinner is ready! Babies, go wash your hands and come eat!”
“Okay!”
“Your mommy called us ‘babies.’ Do you think she wants to take me home?”
Yuanyuan explained patiently, “She won’t. A baby like you is more than most people can handle.”
Ren Xin nodded. That made sense.
【Two little geniuses. I have to admit now, genes are really important.】
【Exactly. Good genes are half the battle. Did you guys hear Sister Xin telling stories in English just now? And Yuanyuan was keeping up. They were naturally communicating in English, and occasionally it sounded like they were mixing in some French.】
【We have officially become the leftovers of society!~】
The Film Empress’s culinary skills were mediocre, but Ren Xin felt that compared to starving, the flavor was enhanced. It was practically a delicacy.
As the show was nearing its end, Ren Xin didn’t forget to gaslight Ren Sen. “In order to take better care of your sister, you have studied the culinary arts diligently, all for the sake of seeing a beautiful smile bloom on her face.”
Ren Sen: “………”
【I get it now. This is hypnosis—a long-lost art!】
【Today’s episode was worth it. Sister Xin read that old man’s fortune, and now she’s demonstrating hypnosis. What kind of treasure show is this? It even features such profound mystical arts.】
【Did the person above learn Sister Xin’s way of spreading rumors?】
【Hahahahaha… I’ve learned it, and I’m putting it to use!】
This episode finally came to an end, and everyone prepared to head home. Chen Qiong added Ren Sen on WeChat, mentioning they should stay in touch. She then said to Ren Xin, “When Yuanyuan misses you, she’ll give you a call, okay?”
Ren Xin nodded. “I still hope my partner can be a bit more simple. She’s too smart.”
Chen Qiong let out a giggle, and Yuanyuan smiled as well.
