"real."
While Chu Qing was packing his things upstairs, he still felt something was off, especially Wei Yutang's attitude when he spoke to him earlier, which made him think of some strange things.
"System, is something wrong?"
At this moment, the system really wanted to remind the Commander that Wei Yutang was blatantly plotting something sinister, using all sorts of means to try and bring the Commander back.
But the thought that if it dared to say those words, and the Marshal regained his memory, it would be taken back as soon as he came to talk to his master, would be enough to make it disappear.
Silently, he pulled his thoughts back and skillfully began to soothe Chu Qing's emotions, just as the system tutorial had instructed.
"It's probably because of Xiaxia in this world that this situation has occurred."
"Possibly."
Chu Qing accepted the system's explanation. Even he felt that such things could easily generate some unnecessary emotions, just like his feelings for Xia Xia, which had changed from initial responsibility to genuine affection.
He has already begun to seriously plan his future, hoping to finish his current job as soon as possible.
In Chu Qing's eyes, the original owner's actions in many things were foolish. Despite having many things in his hands, he never knew how to make use of them.
The only thing that could be considered somewhat clever was coming onto this show.
Somewhat clever, but not much.
Live-streamed variety shows like this present a huge opportunity, but also come with considerable risks.
If you can ensure that you have enough strength, you will gain a lot of fans on this variety show and successfully turn your career around.
Getting such an opportunity would be wonderful, of course.
However, the same principle applies: if you come to this show without sufficient ability, it's like magnifying all your shortcomings.
In other words, it means they feel they are living too happily.
Before this, Chu Qing specifically checked his current popularity, which was much better than the original owner's state of being virtually unknown.
After this variety show ends, there will definitely be many people who will take advantage of his remaining popularity and be willing to give him another chance.
If he can seize that opportunity, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to survive smoothly in the entertainment industry.
The system had also specifically reminded the host that it hoped he would act according to the original owner's identity in every world.
For example, in this world, the original owner was just an unknown nobody, so the main battlefield for the host to achieve his career goals is the entertainment industry.
Chu Qing checked the time and prepared to contact the original owner to see if he remembered his agent. If not, then so be it, since he didn't have any contract with him anyway.
It would be best if he didn't remember, so he could sign with a new company as a free agent.
The value he possessed was the first thing Chu Qing used.
Ideally, we should use this to gain greater benefits for ourselves.
Hosen contacted his parents and, while speaking, specifically mentioned that his partner's child was particularly annoying.
His father hadn't originally intended to pressure him into marriage, but after seeing these adorable children, he brought it up again.
Hosen himself wasn't particularly averse to it, but the thought of his mother asking him if he liked his partner sent chills down his spine.
If it weren't for the fact that this program wasn't arranged by the company, but rather that the director of this program had helped Huo Sen once before, Huo Sen would have come specifically to repay the favor.
If it weren't for this reason, Hossen would just want to leave as soon as possible.
The system glanced at the data panel showing the protagonist's affection level towards the main character in this world. It had been around 20 or 30 percent before, but today it suddenly dropped to 5 percent.
The curious system deliberately reverted all the timelines to see what exactly had happened.
After reading it, the system couldn't help but laugh. Although it had never quite understood human emotions before, it was able to roughly grasp some of the principles based on its master's input into its program.
This situation probably occurs when the protagonist (the dominant one) has just developed a slight liking for the other protagonist (the submissive one), and suddenly someone comes up and asks where they plan to bury them.
It's fine to joke around, but if it's serious, they'll definitely scramble to their feet and run as fast as they can.
"What's wrong?"
On her way to Wei Yutang's house, Chu Qing noticed that the system was in a very good mood and couldn't help but ask it.
"Host, in this mission dimension, the possibility of a relationship between the main characters has been reduced to a safe level."
In each world, the protagonist can be said to be the embodiment of the empress, and no one can guarantee where the cunning empress might be hiding.
Bai Yuan comes every day to conduct a detailed examination, hoping to make sufficient preparations to rescue the Commander.
"good."
Xiaxia knew very well that she should take care of her father. She had been eating better food there recently, so she had gained a little weight.
I feel like I'm such a big kid now, and my dad would definitely find me too heavy to sit on, but it's different when I sit on my uncle's lap.
Uncle looks like a tall and strong man. If he can't even lift a small child, that would be a disgrace!
Chu Qing felt slightly uncomfortable sitting in the car. The original owner of this body had an irregular schedule, and it was common for her to eat only one meal a day.
Although adjustments are made frequently after he arrives, some minor stomach problems cannot be resolved in a short time and require a long period of time to heal.
After noticing that Xia Xia looked unwell, Wei Yutang took the initiative to hug Xia Xia and move a little closer.
Xiaxia looked at her uncle's action and vaguely understood what he meant.
The little guy did say before that it would be nice if Wei Yutang were his father, but that doesn’t mean he can accept another father and integrate into the identity so quickly.
Xiaxia patted her shoulder and smiled at her father.
"Daddy, lean on Xiaxia's shoulder!"
Chu Qing gently shook his head. He was an adult, and no matter how cute Xia Xia looked, she was just a little kid. He felt tired after leaning against her for only a short while.
"Dad, lean on me."
Xiaxia awkwardly started to act cute with her father, glancing at her not-so-broad shoulders and pouting in disdain.
Why can't we grow up faster?
The reluctant child reached out and patted his uncle's shoulder, letting his father lean on Wei Yutang's shoulder.
"Dad relies on this."
Chu Qing was in too much pain to say a word. She shook her head in denial and closed her eyes to doze off for a while. Unexpectedly, while dozing off, she unknowingly leaned on Wei Yutang's shoulder.
Wei Yutang felt a weight on his shoulder, turned his head to look, and Xia Xia also looked over curiously.
Finding that her father had fallen asleep, she put her index finger to the corner of her lips, signaling to her uncle not to speak.
Wei Yutang nodded slightly, and the two reached a consensus very happily.
On the Wei family's side, not only Wei's father and mother, but even Wei's eldest brother was extremely shocked when he learned of that news.
He could tell that his younger brother was similar to him, both of them not very interested in relationships.
After realizing this, Brother Wei was upset for a long time, thinking that it would be fine if it were just him alone, but now his younger brother is also in the same situation.
My parents will definitely be sad after my younger brother grows up.
Seeing other people's grandchildren calling them grandpa and grandma, while they themselves have none, the sense of disparity might make the elderly couple feel depressed.
Now things have taken a turn for the better. His younger brother has quietly brought him back a little guy, and according to his father, the little guy is already three years old.
When the production crew came to install some equipment, Wei's father specifically asked the housekeeper to come and help, so that their work could proceed more smoothly.
Finally, the day of their return arrived. The night before, when she received the news, Wei's mother urged the servants to clean the house thoroughly, inside and out.
A specially prepared room was provided for Chu Qing, and there was also a small room for Xia Xia.
The study, the toy room, and the backyard now have a rocking horse and a swing, all specially prepared for Xiaxia.
If possible, the elderly couple would like to keep the child.
Now that they have their own grandchildren, they no longer have to spend all their time visiting other people's grandchildren, unlike before.
The assistant had already delivered the suitcases, so when Chu Qing got out of the car, she only needed to hold Xia Xia's hand. The production crew's vehicles followed behind them on the way from the airport.
There were many viewers in the live stream, some hoping to see the Wei family realize how little Chu Qing respected Wei Yutang and wanting to teach him a lesson.
Or there were other people who simply wanted to see the environment inside Wei Yutang's home.
The mere mention of the daily environment of Wei Yutang's parents and brothers, and the furnishings of their home, is enough to attract many people, let alone the fact that so many things are combined together.
The people working on the live streaming platform stayed at the company to work overtime, fearing that if anyone didn't perform well enough, they would cause the platform to crash.
Xiaxia stared in shock at the huge villa in front of her.
The word "villa" seems inappropriate; it looks more like a huge estate, and its exquisite luxury is immediately apparent.
If possible, Xiaxia would like to go to the highest point to see if it really is exactly like the princess castle she imagined.
Today, Wei's mother specially changed into a cheongsam. She is not young anymore, and her face is full of the marks of time. Her hair was tied up at the back of her head, making her look elegant and dignified.
Wei Yutang thought Xia Xia looked a lot like Chu Qing, especially in her eyebrows and eyes. However, in Wei's mother's eyes, she could find traces of Wei Yutang's childhood self in the parts of Xia Xia that resembled Chu Qing.
This tiny little guy, dressed in a jumpsuit, stood there obediently calling out to his grandpa and grandma, and Wei's mother couldn't help but soften her heart.
"Is this Xiaxia? I heard Yutang mention you before. You look like a very cute child."
When Xiaxia heard this, she turned to look at her uncle standing there. She was not used to the current situation and did not know how to get along with her grandmother.
Too anxious, Xia Xia's face began to flush and burn with shyness. Chu Qing, who was next to her, noticed that Xia Xia was a little uncomfortable and took the initiative to speak:
What should Xiaxia do if she gets praised?
After being reminded by her father, Xiaxia snapped out of her nervousness, looked up at her grandmother, and said in her childish voice:
"Thank you for the compliment, Grandma."
"You're welcome. Come in first. Grandma asked the chef to make you a small cake. She said all the kids love it. Go and try it."
Okay~
Xiaxia came here for the same reason as when she went to that villa with her father before. The director had mentioned to her that every meal she ate here was free.
Since she didn't have to spend her father's money, Xiaxia naturally wanted to take advantage of the situation and fatten herself up a bit.
What's going on? This doesn't seem quite what I expected.
Is it because Wei Yutang's parents didn't watch live streams much before, so they didn't know what happened?
Those who wanted to watch the drama were naturally somewhat dissatisfied when they found that Chu Qing and Wei Yutang's parents' first meeting was so harmonious, but they still held onto a sliver of hope and were not very willing to admit it.
However, there was another group in the live stream who really disliked them. After hearing their self-deceiving words, they quickly started mocking them in the chat.
