Regarding the behind-the-scenes grumbling of the program team, Ji Ruochu naturally didn't know about it. Even if she did know... well, she would just pretend not to.
After all, how could she tell them about her past brush with sudden death due to poor health?
Five minutes later, the group returned to the van, and once everyone was seated, the vehicle slowly set off towards the Ji family's home.
"Ruochu, do you usually cook at home?" The director couldn't help but ask, recalling Ruochu's skilled shopping scene earlier.
"No, I don't." Ruochu answered honestly, "Usually, it's my dad who cooks more, and my mom makes the dishes and desserts for afternoon tea. As for me... I'm in charge of setting the table."
The director: ... Very good, the division of labor is clear.
"But I noticed you were very skilled in the supermarket, even controlling the portions of the ingredients you bought just right."
"That's because my dad really enjoys going to the supermarket," Ruochu explained.
...
Far away in a foreign country, Ji Mochen: Haha~
"Is the air conditioning too cold?" Ling Chujin asked with a hint of confusion.
"No, I think my daughter is missing me and talking about me." The old father said, then took out his phone, "It's still daytime in China now, should I give my daughter a call?"
Ling Chujin: ... If you want to call, just say so.
"I'll call her in the evening. She's probably filming the program now."
Ji Mochen: Okay.
"My dad really likes playing with the shopping carts in the supermarket, but he's afraid of being laughed at. When I was little, he used to take me to the supermarket and put me in the cart to push me around and play."
As Ruochu spoke, she also dug up an old account, "One time, he didn't control the force well and ended up launching me out of the cart."
The staff: !!!
Is this the kind of gossip we can hear without paying a dime?
Wow, turns out you're this kind of Ji Wangzi (Emperor Ji).
"You must have been really scared back then," the director said, struggling to find the right words.
"I was terrified." Ruochu nodded, after all, her father's cries that day had echoed for three days.
Of course, she didn't need to provide those details to outsiders.
"So what dishes are you making today?"
The topic was redirected.
"I'll make a soup, cook some rice, and stir-fry a couple of dishes. That's enough for one person."
In fact, the amount of ingredients she bought was far more than a single person would eat. But no one realized that Ruochu's preparation wasn't just for her own lunch, but for...
"Auntie Qiao, the family made soup today. I brought you a small bowl, don't worry, I skimmed off the oil, and cooked it with radish and mushrooms, so it won't make you gain weight."
"Oh, you sweet child." Qiao Lanyi smiled happily as she accepted the bowl, "Don't worry, even if this soup might make me gain weight, Auntie will finish it all."
After that, she asked with some concern, "It seems the program team is treating you well, providing you with food. We were worried yesterday that they might make you earn money to buy your own meals."
Clearly, Qiao Lanyi had directly dismissed the possibility that this soup was made by Ruochu herself.
After all, the few children in the family were all ones who never got their hands dirty. This soup must either be provided by the program team or something Ruochu bought outside.
And then, under the guise of bringing soup to her, she would tell the elders, letting everyone know that the child is not going hungry.
Qiao Lanyi sighed at the child's thoughtfulness as she took a sip of the simple pork bone soup.
Mm, not bad, even without any precious ingredients, the taste is still quite good, not letting the child down.
The other families seemed to have the same idea, and even specially took a photo to send to their family group chat, captioned:
The soup Ruochu brought, the taste is not bad, you don't have to worry anymore, the child is not going hungry.
In a foreign country, Ji Mochen: ...
He was reassured, but also felt quite unsatisfied.
On the other side, the director asked Ruochu with some puzzlement:
"Why didn't you say this soup was made by you?"
Pausing in her rice scooping, Ruochu sighed a little, "If I said that, my parents would probably rush back on the fastest flight to take a sip."
The staff: ???
It's just a pork bone soup, is that necessary?
Although they felt it was a bit exaggerated, the staff didn't voice it out.
In a flash, a week had passed, and Ruochu's filming was nearing its end. Ji Mochen and his wife had also returned from abroad.
After Ruochu finished recording the remaining programs with her parents, she immediately joined the drama crew, and Ji Mochen and his wife began their wonderful daily routine of bringing meals and visiting their daughter on set.
Until one day, the promotional video for the program 'The Child's Independent Living' was released, officially announcing the guest lineup for this season.
A preview video of no more than five minutes, after being released for just ten minutes, had already soared to the top of the hot search list.
At first, the netizens who had already guessed that the guests for this season would be members from 'Dad Take Over' didn't find it particularly interesting.
At the time, compared to the guest lineup, Ji Mochen as the observation guest was actually more popular.
The reason why the promotional video went viral was that, firstly, the guests for this season turned out to be the entire cast from Ji Mochen's previous season.
Yes, the entire cast, including the one they thought would never appear - Ji Ruochu.
It's worth noting that even though more than a month had passed since 'Brain Battle' ended, Ji Ruochu was still the number one celebrity with the best influence.
Needless to say, the fans were ecstatic to see Ruochu in this video, and the comments were all cheers from Ruochu's fans.
After going crazy for a while, the fans, fearing they might bring trouble to their little darling, specially went to delete a few overly passionate literary works, leaving only two top comments - one for going crazy, and one for keeping a degree of propriety.
Some netizens even sighed, no wonder their friend who worked as an editor at Strawberry Channel had been working overtime until they went mad.
