When Ji Mochen brought home today's mission reward, he saw the staff with a long face, while his daughter was taking a sip of milk while glancing at the other person every now and then.

"Did you take something from her?" Ji Mochen asked curiously.

Although he knew it was impossible, his daughter's expression was exactly like when he had hidden her toys in the past.

"I didn't! I didn't take anything!" Heaven and earth can testify, I only secretly ate an ice pop!

Fortunately, several other little guests came over soon to find their Ruochu sister to play with.

After a while of playing hide and seek, blind man's bluff, it seemed boring, but the children's laughter never stopped. But if you say it's interesting... Ji Ruochu, this gaming bug, really makes people feel ashamed.

In hide and seek, hiding behind the obese photographer was one thing, but in blind man's bluff she just stood still without moving at all.

The staff wanted to ask her many times: Do you really have any gaming experience?

Ji Ruochu blinked her eyes, "I do!"

Danmu: Ah ah ah ah! Gaming bug Ruochu is online! Awesome!

Not until the other little ones were called home by their fathers did Ji Ruochu suddenly remember to ask, "Uncle, did Tingting sister come today?"

"Yes, she came when you were taking a nap, went to that room to read a book for a while and then went back."

Ji Ruochu nodded to indicate that she understood. Seeing this, the staff couldn't help but smile in their eyes. This kid, how come she still has some precociousness.

In the evening, Ji Ruochu sat in a rocking chair in a daze, but her mind was thinking.

There were two more days until the end of the live broadcast. Today, she and Ji Mochen wandered around the vicinity for a while, but did not find anything unusual.

According to the activity trajectory of each guest group of the program team, Ji Ruochu still felt that the breakthrough was Tingting.

It seemed that she had to find time to chat with Tingting alone and adjust her nap time backwards tomorrow.

...

The next day.

Ji Ruochu endured her sleepiness and lay on the small window sill in the room waiting for her prey...oh no, Tingting’s arrival.

As a result, she waited and waited, and waited, until Ji Mochen came back, but still did not see Sister Tingting.

Well, if the mountain won’t come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain.

"Dad, I'm going to find Sister Tingting to play!" Ji Ruochu hugged her milk bottle and ran out with a "clip clop".

"My daughter, aren't you hot?" Ji Mochen suggested while wiping his sweat, "Why not go later?"

The little one stopped, thought for a moment, then turned and ran back with a "clip clop". Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ ɴ0velFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Her father thought his advice had worked, and was just about to smile when he froze the next second.

"Dad, it's hot, carry me!"

Ji Ruochu smiled so sweetly that her father could only resign himself to carrying her out.

"Why do you have to go find your Sister Tingting at this time? Can't it be later?"

"It's such a hot day, who knows if Tingting is also taking a nap now?"

"And also, you..."

"Dad, you're so noisy."

Ji Mochen: ...I'm really free.

Fortunately, the father and daughter's luck was not bad. Soon, they saw Tingting on the roadside with several other girls who looked twelve or thirteen but were equally thin.

"Don't regret it!"

As the father and daughter approached, they heard this vicious remark. The other party seemed to have seen Ji Mochen and others as well, and immediately left together.

Only Tingting was left. She wanted to hold them back but didn't dare to. Her hesitant look really made people think otherwise.

[What's the situation? Bullying?]

[Shouldn't be, right? Although they looked fierce, they didn't get physical.]

[This is obviously isolating and ganging up.]

"Sister Tingting!" The little one excitedly waved at her, her sweet voice pleasing to the ear.

"Little sister Ruochu."

Seeing her, Tingting's eyes also lit up.

"Sister Tingting, are they your friends?" Ji Ruochu was a little worried.

"Yes...I guess so."

"They look..." The little one gestured, "A bit fierce."

Hearing this, Tingting immediately became more nervous, as if she didn't know how to explain.

Fortunately, Ji Ruochu asked about something else: "Sister Tingting, why didn't you come to my house to read today? I waited for you for a long time!"

As she spoke, the little milk baby couldn't help but yawned while covering her mouth: "I'm sleepy."

"I'm sorry, sister, I forgot. I will definitely go tomorrow." Before the words fell, an old man's call came from not far away.

"Tingting, you little slut, where did you go messing around again?"

"Little Sister Ruochu, see you tomorrow!"

After that, Tingting ran back home without looking back. Soon afterwards, a string of cursing sounded.

Ji Mochen heard the beginning and immediately covered his daughter's ears and walked back.

Ji Ruochu also pretended she didn't hear it. After returning, she plunged into her milk bottle tatami mat to make up for her sleep.

Ruochu: Oh bottle, I missed you so much after not seeing you for a while! ZZZzzz~~~

Seeing his daughter's little feet dangling outside the tatami mat, Ji Mochen couldn't help smiling in his eyes.

For the next two days, Tingting came to Ruochu's house on time every day, and the two girls sat side by side reading picture books in the courtyard.

However, there would always be children from the village coming here looking for her, the same teenagers in their early teens that they saw last time.

But Tingting did not leave with them, she always went out to talk to them for a few words, then came back and continued reading quietly.

So the next day, the rest of the little friends also gradually developed the habit of reading books before their afternoon nap.

Speaking of which, the quality of that afternoon nap had improved a lot after reading before sleeping.

In the blink of an eye, it was the last day of the live broadcast, which was also the time when the dads pieced together the task fragments to get the treasure map.

The little ones were very excited early in the morning, and the picture of themselves finding the treasure was already emerging in their minds.

At Ji Ruochu's request, Tingting also went with everyone to find the treasure, after all, she was very familiar with the roads in the village.

But for some reason, Tingting had been absent-minded since the recording of the show began. When Ruochu talked to her, she was always distracted.

The audience only thought the child was nervous, but only Ji Ruochu knew clearly what she was worried about.

"Sister Tingting, what's wrong with you?"

When Tingting hesitated again at one point, Ji Ruochu turned off her microphone and asked softly.

"I..." Upon seeing this, the hesitation in the thin girl's heart dissipated a little, but she still hesitated for a moment before saying, "Little sister Ruochu, aren't you going back today?"

"No, my dad said it’s tomorrow morning."

"Then little sister Ruochu, after I make money in the future, I’ll come to see you."

"Great!" Ji Ruochu said as if inadvertently, "But Sister Tingting, we are all kids, by the time you make money, we'll all be grown ups!"

"No, I already have a way to make money."

"What is it?" Ji Ruochu lowered her voice, as if the two were talking about a very covert secret at the moment.

"The older brothers and sisters in the village are going to the big city to work today. I have already told them that they will take me with them." Tingting also said in a low voice.

"Really?" Ji Ruochu was a little surprised. "But it's illegal for a child to work, the boss who hires you will go to jail."

"No, this boss is very powerful. Every year many young people from our village go to work for him. When they come back, their stomachs are round and big, like a Maitreya Buddha."

"What about the girls?"

"They all married rich men in the city, and send money back every year. My grandma said they are all ungrateful, going to live a good life in the city and then not coming back."

Tingting paused, then quickly explained,

"But I'm different, I'll come back. By then I’ll buy new clothes for my grandma, dad, mom and younger brother, and for you too."

Hearing this, Ji Ruochu guessed what was going on.

So the next second, the little one gently held her hand, and calmly said, "Then sister, when are you leaving? Will you stay to find the treasure with us?"
