I’ve Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show

Teacher Liu held two skinny little ones in her arms, soothing them patiently because they didn’t like eating.
Another nursery teacher was comforting another crying little one, who didn’t quite adjust on his first day of kindergarten.
Consequently, the little one wailing in Teacher Liu’s mouth was left unattended.
Chen Xixi’s gaze followed the direction Teacher Liu pointed.
A little boy in a white shirt and shorts was sitting on a tiny stool, his bright big eyes moist with tears, the areas around his eyes fiery red, lips pouting, his tender little face all puffed up, looking extremely aggrieved.
Chen Xixi’s heart immediately melted into a mess.
How could there be such an adorably cute little baby? She really wanted to bite fiercely into the plump flesh of his cheeks.
Teacher Liu said to Chen Xixi, “His parents are busy and can’t come today. I just told him I’d arrange another sister to join him in activities, and no sooner had I said it than he started crying. He must feel a little sad because his parents aren’t here. I’m worried he might resist participating in activities with you; please be patient and comfort him.”
“Alright, Teacher Liu.”
“His name is Lu Ziqi, he hasn’t been at our kindergarten for long, we usually call him Qiqi.”
Teacher Liu then put down the two little ones who wouldn’t eat properly and led Chen Xixi to Lu Ziqi.
Teacher Liu squatted down, a loving smile on her face, and gently coaxed, “Qiqi, this is Sister Xixi who will play games with you today. She’s awesome and will definitely lead Qiqi to victory!”
Lu Ziqi lifted his little head to look at Chen Xixi, sniffling and blinking his wet big eyes. The next second, his mouth turned down even more, and he started crying “waah,” even more heart-wrenchingly than before.
Why wasn’t it his mom and dad?
Why did all the other kids have their own parents with them, and only he needed someone else? Did his mom and dad not want him anymore? He felt so pitiful… *sob* *sob*…
Chen Xixi had just arrived not long ago, and other children’s parents were also gradually coming in. Lu Ziqi saw his classmates running excitedly to their parents, calling for them, and felt even worse.
A pair of clear, bright big eyes instantly filled with tears, falling down his fair cheeks, looking very pitiful.
Chen Xixi said to Teacher Liu, “Leave it to me.”
Teacher Liu nodded and hurried off to feed the two little ones who didn’t like to eat.
After Teacher Liu left, Chen Xixi took a nearby children’s stool and sat across from Lu Ziqi.
Chen Xixi’s eyes curved up, her tone cheerful: “Hello, Qiqi. I’ll introduce myself. My name is Chen Xixi.”
Lu Ziqi looked at Chen Xixi, his crying stopped momentarily, then he turned his head away and continued to cry, presenting Chen Xixi with a slightly cold and stubborn profile.
Chen Xixi tilted her head, looking at Lu Ziqi who clearly didn’t want to deal with her, thinking that this little guy was pretty temperamental. It seemed that what Teacher Liu had told her was right, he did have some aversion and was not easy to console.
The live stream viewers thought that Chen Xixi would continue to patiently comfort the little one who was bawling.
But to their surprise, Chen Xixi just sat there, calm and composed, watching the child cry without saying a word of comfort, and even took out a lychee-flavored lollipop from her pocket, unwrapped it, and started to eat it in front of the child.
[??? Isn’t she here to play with the child? Why is she eating candy herself, not bothering with the child?]
[It turns out that Chen Xixi was asked by the kindergarten to come and accompany the child for the parents, I knew Chen Xixi’s relatives couldn’t possibly send their kids to this type of kindergarten.]
[Poor little Qiqi is crying so pitifully, Chen Xixi, please comfort him quickly, give him the candy in your hand and he’ll stop crying!]
[Is Chen Xixi trying to deliberately make Qiqi crave candy? Doesn’t this just make the child cry even harder? Does she even know how to take care of children?]
[Definitely not, as a single dog, where would she get the experience to take care of kids? I’m not deliberately dissing Chen Xixi, I admit she’s awesome when it comes to saving money, but as for childcare, I bet she’s a total noob!]
[It’s very hard to take care of little kids, especially if the adult doesn’t bond well with the child. Chen Xixi is bound to be overwhelmed today, Qiqi is going to suffer too. Just forget about winning any games—they should count themselves lucky if they’re not the very last.]
[I’m so anxious watching this! Should I go help Chen Xixi? I live right next to this kindergarten!]
Viewers in the live broadcast room were all anxious for Chen Xixi and also sweating bullets for the little cutie.
But Chen Xixi was leisurely eating her lollipop, occasionally pulling it out to look at it.
She clicked her tongue and frowned slightly, “How come this lollipop isn’t sweet at all?”
Lu Ziqi cried for a while, and since no one consoled him, he got tired of crying. Suddenly hearing someone say that the lollipop wasn’t sweet, he quickly turned his head to look at the lollipop in Chen Xixi’s hand.
The lollipop had the shape of a cartoon bear that would stop any child in their tracks.
It instantly caught Lu Ziqi’s attention.
He lifted his chubby little hands to wipe the tears from his cheeks, his voice trembling with a crying tone, firmly stating, “Impossible! Lollipops can’t be unsweet!”
Lu Ziqi’s eyes, dampened by tears, stared intently at the bunny-shaped lollipop in Chen Xixi’s hand, and he subconsciously licked his lips.
Chen Xixi, in front of Lu Ziqi, put the lollipop back in her mouth, tasting it as if thoroughly savoring it, then frowned and said, “But it really isn’t sweet to me, oh what a pity… I have another one like this in my bag, maybe you should have it?”
Chen Xixi sighed helplessly, took out another bear-shaped lollipop from her bag, and handed it to Lu Ziqi.
Lu Ziqi looked at the lollipop Chen Xixi handed him, then at Chen Xixi, and with a bit of struggle in his clear eyes, he was silent for a moment. Then he lifted his chin, feigning composure, “Then I will reluctantly help you eat it; it would be such a waste otherwise.”
With a slight curve of her lips, Chen Xixi helped him unwrap the lollipop, “Good, then you help me taste it properly and see if it’s sweet or not.”
Lu Ziqi stretched out his little hand to take the lollipop, licked it, and the sweet taste of lychee instantly filled his taste buds. His mood improved significantly, and his previously furrowed brow, full of sadness and rage, also began to show traces of joy.
This flavor is really delicious!
Lu Ziqi looked at Chen Xixi, holding the lollipop tightly in his hand, “It’s very sweet.”
“Then why isn’t mine sweet? Ah… I know why, it must be because you were crying just now, so my candy turned unsweet.”
Lu Ziqi froze for a moment, with a comically serious little man’s demeanor, he said in a babyish voice, “I didn’t cry just now.”
[Hahahaha, the whole internet saw it, Qiqi won’t admit it, this little guy really cares about his pride!]
[Eh? It seems like Qiqi has been cheered up by Chen Xixi? Just now he didn’t want anything to do with Chen Xixi, but now it seems like he’s not against her anymore.]
[It’s just the start, the harder part is still to come. Just wait until they play games later; it’s hard for kids like this to cooperate!]
…
Inside the burger joint.
Zheng He turned on his phone and saw Chen Xixi live streaming at the kindergarten, his expression suddenly froze.
What’s Chen Xixi’s deal?
Knowing that he’s having issues with offspring, did she especially go to the kindergarten to broadcast live and mock him, to provoke him?
