The Useless Stepmom Brings Her Kids to Reality TV Shows to Photograph Them

213 The Two of Them Together Sound Scary

The Orphanage Director smiled but tears streamed down his face.

Jian Jia was a special child to him. He was still a little ill, but the child was the most sensible and the most talented among his peers.

At Lan Village, there were no missions for the guests in the morning. So, the five families visited each other.

Nannan and Tao Jingyuan reached the Li family’s house to look for Lin Wan.

!!

Xiao Tianlin, on the other hand, dragged Li Yanchen to the basketball court to play basketball with his son.

The children went to Feifei’s house and kneaded clay with Feifei and Zheng Kuo.

Xia Mo had prepared flower mounting tools for the afternoon. She also went to the Li family.

Before she stepped into the courtyard, she heard Nannan’s voice.

“It’s a deal, then. I’ll help you guys in the afternoon. I will find out which cake Wheatley likes and make it on the spot.” Nannan hadn’t expected Lin Wan to agree without hesitation.

‘They’re all here today.’ Xia Mo pushed open the courtyard door.

“Teacher Xia, hello.” The women greeted her.

[All the mothers came over. Lin Wan’s popularity is increasing day by day.]

[It’s been three episodes. They are finally getting friendly.]

[The relationship between the guests is getting more and more harmonious.]

[It would be perfect if Jian Jia’s family had a mother too.]

[Jian Jia seems fine. Luo Xi doesn’t seem to have any plans to date right now. The live stream hasn’t mentioned anything about him looking for someone he wants to be with.]

[Don’t talk about Luo Xi here. ]

[Yes. They have their own plans. Let’s not talk about other people’s personal matters.]

[Sisters, there’s a camera on the court. Let’s go and watch.]

The four mothers chatted in the Li family’s courtyard. Their voices rose and fell. The camera could only see the mothers’ backs, so most people chose to go to other live broadcast rooms.

At the basketball court, Li Yanchen bumped into Luo Xi.

Luo Xi and Michael were already shooting from the other basket.

Seeing that Li Yanchen was startled, Xiao Tianlin pushed at his arm. “Brother Li, let’s play on our own.”

After exchanging greetings with Luo Xi and Michael, Xiao Tianlin and Li Yanchen went to the opposite side of the court.

“Dad, I’ll team up with Li Zexuan. You and Uncle Li can be a team. It will be a two-on-two match. Whoever scores first, wins,” said Xiao Yi.

“But that would look like we are bullying children,” said Xiao Tianlin. “How about two of us form a team? And Li Zexuan will team up with Brother Li. That sounds the fairest.” His son and Li Zexuan were both skinny.

“Dad, you underestimate us. It’s boring to team up with adults. We can just do it my way. You guys start first,” insisted Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi was well aware of his father’s skill in basketball. He wasn’t much better than Li Zexin. He might have a bigger cross-sectional area and a bit of an advantage when it came to defense, but it was a stretch to expect him to score.

Xiao Tianlin said that he didn’t want to look like he was bullying kids but in reality, he was afraid that he and Li Yanchen were going to lose to two kids. So, he tried to make an excuse.

The four of them divided themselves into two teams when Michael walked over.

“Hey, do you want to play together?” asked Michael. “Li Zexuan and Xiao Yi can have half the court and us four adults will play half-court.”

“Luo Xi, let the kids have that side. The four of us will play here.” Michael waved at Luo Xi.

“Brother Michael, are the four of us competing? How will we team up? You and Luo Xi and me and Brother Li?”

“We will decide at random by the back and palm of the hand. The one who flips the same side will form a team. I need to make it clear that my basketball skills are terrible, please don’t look down on me,” said Michael humbly.

Xiao Tianlin looked at Michael’s bulging muscles. It was obvious that Michael was just trying to be humble. However, his way of choosing a teammate was fair.

“Xiao Yi and Xuanxuan. You guys can take the other side and have fun,” said Xiao Tianlin as he pushed his son to the other side of the court.

“Let’s go, Xuanxuan. There’s no point in arguing.” Xiao Yi pulled on Li Zexuan, who was still in a daze.

[Thank you to the Festival Group for this sudden live stream.]

[There is no mission in the morning. Did the fathers of the family spontaneously decide on a basketball match?]

[Xuanxuan and the Wind God have been sent away. Are the four fathers of the families having a match?]

[Will Luo Xi and Mr. Li be opponents or in the same team?]

[If Mr. Li and Luo Xi end up in the same team, it will be boring.]

[Why will it be boring? If they are together, we will get to see how they work together as a team when they don’t want to.]

Li Yanchen listened to Xiao Tianlin and Michael discussing the rules without saying a word.

Xiao Tianlin didn’t even ask him if he was willing to play basketball with Luo Xi. He was about to berate Xiao Tianlin for not even considering his opinion when Luo Xi extended his hand.

“Alright,” said Luo Xi. “So, whoever gets the same side of the hand teams up, right?”

‘If Luo Xi doesn’t mind playing, why should I?’ decided Li Yanchen. “Yes,” he said.

“Now!” said Xiao Tianlin. They all stretched out their hands. After doing it three times, they finally found their team.

Xiao Tianlin had extended his hand with his palm facing downward twice. On the third time, Michael had done the same. He was teamed up with Michael.

He looked at Li Yanchen and Luo Xi, they both looked skinny and frail. Xiao Tianlin assumed that they might not really have an experience in playing basketball. However, Michael was different. He was very muscley.

Li Yanchen and Luo Xi clenched their fists at the result. They looked at each other in dismay.

Sensing the awkwardness, Michael tried to lighten the atmosphere. “This looks like fat men vs. thin men match.” He chuckled.

Luo Xi was a little bothered by the turn of events. He never wished to have a showdown with Li Yanchen. However, he never imagined that he would someday team up with him.

Even standing near Li Yanchen made him feel suffocated.

...

Knowing that the camera was on them, Li Yanchen extended a hand. “Luo Xi, it’s a pleasure to team up with you.”

“Thank you. Likewise,” said Luo Xi with a smile. They shook on it.

On the other side, Li Zexuan turned around to look. His father was actually teaming up together with Luo Xi! ‘What kind of trick is this?’

The fans in the live broadcast room were even more shocked.

[I’m shocked. What is happening?]

[The two of them together sound scary. I thought that the two of them would refuse to work together. But they are a team now.]

[Mr. Li is confident and magnanimous. It’s just a basketball match. What’s the big deal?]

[I don’t mind, either. Everyone, stop making a fuss. There’s nothing going on between them.]

[Yeah. Brother Luo Xi and Lin Wan are just classmates. That’s all. Why do people try to make it so awkward? Some people just want to have fun watching, you know?]

[I’m just here for the competition.]

Xiao Tianlin’s team took the lead and attacked.

...

When Li Yanchen was in university, he used to be on the basketball team. However, after taking over Chenxin, he had fewer and fewer opportunities to play basketball. As a result, he was a little out of touch.

Xiao Tianlin occasionally played in the basketball court of his neighborhood when he had nothing to do. Perhaps it was because he was old and slightly fat, he often lost to his neighbors. At this moment, he was useless.

Michael wasn’t as weak as he made out to be in his introduction. After Xiao Tianlin passed the ball, he launched a fierce attack.
