Thousands of people disliked them, but after being reborn and correcting their mistakes, they regret

Lin Ke woke up at eight o'clock. There was no cell phone or alarm clock here. Luckily, he kept repeating "wake up early" to himself before going to sleep, which created a psychological suggestion that allowed him to barely wake up at eight o'clock.

Lingling was still sleeping soundly, breathing evenly. After getting up, Lin Ke tucked Lingling in and went to the main room to dress up, carrying bottles and jars, so as not to disturb Lingling's sleep.

Actually, he has a bit of appearance anxiety. Even though many people say he is very good-looking, he is still not satisfied. When he sees someone, he will first analyze their appearance and only feel at ease if he thinks that person is not as good-looking as him. Coming to this show, all the guests are good-looking, which puts a lot of pressure on him.

He thought all the other guests were better looking than him, except for Xu Fan. But when he glimpsed Xu Fan's bare face yesterday, so fair and lovely, he felt that his own appearance was the worst, and he lost his usual confidence, so he had to get up early in the morning to dress himself up.

Primer, foundation, eyeliner, eyeshadow, eyebrows, blush, and lipstick—you can't skip any of them!

After putting on her makeup, Lin Ke also styled her hair.

Perfect! Looking at her exquisite reflection in the mirror, Lin Ke finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He checked the time; it was only 8:30, half an hour before the show started. He wondered if he should stay in bed and wait for the production team to wake him up at 9:00, so that the viewers would think, "Wow! He looks so good right after waking up!"

Wouldn't this be too deliberate? And wouldn't the audience think he's a lazybones who sleeps until nine o'clock?

And it seems the production team is already adjusting the equipment outside. Will they expose him?

"Dad, I'm a little hungry." Just then, Lingling appeared at the bathroom door.

Let's cook something for Lingling first! Let's see what ingredients we have.

While searching for ingredients throughout the house, Lin Ke discovered the task cards that the production team had placed on the table.

We have to make our own breakfast and meet at 10 a.m.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to ask Xu Fan for cooking advice yesterday.

"How come I'm so smart?" Lin Ke patted her proud little chest and continued searching for ingredients.

He found some flour. Xu Fan had told him how to make steamed buns and pancakes yesterday. Since there seemed to be no yeast in the house, he decided to just make a simple pancake.

Lin Ke took out a bowl and poured flour into it.

The flour spit was opened too wide, and when Lin Ke fell down, flour flew everywhere, as if it were smoking.

"Achoo! Cough cough cough~"

"It's choking me! Cooking is really not easy!" Following the method Xu Fan told him yesterday, he mixed half boiling water and half cold water into the flour, then struggled to stir it with chopsticks. After stirring, he put on a glove and kneaded the flour into a dough.

"Then I just woke up for half an hour..."

Perfect timing, I can start making pancakes as soon as the live stream starts around 9 o'clock.

Xu Fan told him that to make scallion pancakes, he needed to prepare an oil paste. Since he didn't have scallions, he just mixed flour with a little oil, added pepper and salt to make a simple oil paste.

Then he slowly tidied up the room and the table, wanting to ensure that the audience would see him as a hardworking person when the broadcast started!

Around 9 o'clock, after showing Xu Fan cooking, the live stream camera switched to Lin Ke, whose dough had just risen.

He greeted the camera warmly: "Hi everyone! I just woke up not long ago, and now I'm going to make our breakfast today."

"You look this good even right after waking up!"

"Men might not notice, but women can tell at a glance that he's wearing a sophisticated, no-makeup makeup look!"

"What's wrong with makeup? You need a good natural base to make makeup look good!"

Looking at the risen dough, Lin Ke's brain went blank for a moment. What was the next step?

He tried hard to recall what Xu Fan had told him yesterday, divided the dough into even portions, rolled them out, added the oil paste, rolled them up, and then flattened them.

After listening to the explanation, he imagined it in his mind and felt that he could do it and definitely do it well, but now he is a little at a loss.

Never mind! I'll just make something simple; it'll be better than yesterday's noodles and burnt potato shreds! The kids are getting impatient!

"Have you noticed that his cooking skills seem to have improved?"

"If I'm not mistaken, that looks like shortcrust pastry. Are we making fried dough cakes?"

"Why do these guests always eat such oily food first thing in the morning?"

"We country folk eat like this every day, and nothing's ever happened to us!"

He pinched off a lump of dough, and since he didn't have a rolling pin, he slowly flattened it with his palm. Then, how did he do it again? He spread out the oil paste and rolled it up... How did he spread it out? In the middle? And how did he roll it up?

He simply put a lump of oil paste on the dough, rolled out another identical sheet, and pinched the edges of the two sheets together.

"I take back what I said about him seemingly being able to cook..."

"It's much better than yesterday, at least."

This should be similar to what Xu Fan said... right?

He made a few more like that, making a total of five cakes.

He learned from Xu Fan yesterday that the pot exploded because the water hadn't been boiled completely. This time, just in case, he wiped the pot dry with toilet paper until there wasn't a single drop of water left.

Carefully, I lifted the large bucket of oil and poured it into the pot. Finding it too slow, I tilted it slightly.

"!" I accidentally poured too much oil. Eating so much oil first thing in the morning is so unhealthy!

"Fine, that's fine then." He carefully placed the pancake in the pan, which immediately sizzled, but thankfully it didn't fry.

After a short while, he picked up the spatula and flipped the food over. The sizzling sound startled him, and he ran several meters away.

A few minutes later, he turned off the fire and took the pancakes out and put them on a plate.

"It's hollow, how amazing!" Lin Ke examined the pancake carefully. The middle part had bulged up, and when she poked it with chopsticks, she found air inside.

"Lingling, come and try some!"

"Daddy, I'm here!" Lingling ran over.

"Here, be careful, it's hot." Lin Ke wrapped a corner of the pancake in paper and handed it to Lingling.

Lingling took a small bite and chewed it.

"How is it?" Lin Ke looked a little nervous. He hadn't tasted it yet, and what if it was bad and made the child sick?

"Mmm! Delicious!" Lingling said, giving a thumbs up.

That's good. Lin Ke moved on to fry the next pancake. He felt he was getting better and better at it. Could he really be a cooking genius?

"I must say, although the process was quite unconventional, the finished product turned out pretty good!"

"The child is eating so heartily, it must be alright."

After frying all the pancakes, Lingling had already finished one and wanted to eat a second one. Seeing how much Lingling was enjoying hers, he decided to try some too.

To be honest, it's just so-so, but at least it's edible.

Fu Qingci stopped watching when the screen switched to Lin Ke's house. She dealt with some work for a while, and during a break, she glanced at the screen. This family's breakfast consisted of just a pancake? And the pancake didn't look very appetizing either. It didn't look tasty at all, not as good as Xu Fan's.

No, why should he praise Xu Fan? It's what he should do.

The camera then cuts to Wen Jingqian, who is already practicing Tai Chi with Jiajia in the backyard. Their movements are fluid and graceful, and Jiajia is imitating them with great enthusiasm.

After finishing, he noticed the camera was pointed at them. He calmly greeted the camera: "Good morning, everyone. Jiajia and I have already eaten and are exercising now." Jiajia nodded obediently beside him.

"Jing Qian is acting like an old cadre, hahaha."

"I feel that this father and daughter are becoming more and more alike."

They both got up very early and ate a simple bowl of clear soup noodles, the same as they ate last night, because that's the only thing Wen Jingqian knows how to make.

The camera cuts to Pei Yin's house. Because it's so hot, the father and son are sitting in the backyard to cool off while waiting for the 10 o'clock assembly.

Pei Yin was too lazy to go begging for food at other people's houses like yesterday. Sheng Sheng ignored him as soon as she woke up in the morning, probably because she was angry that he didn't get to eat biscuits yesterday. He took two compressed biscuits, one for himself and one for the child as breakfast. Sheng Sheng stopped making a fuss because she really didn't have the energy to make a fuss. Their house didn't have air conditioning or a TV, and it was unbearably hot.

"Dad... I'm so hot..." Sheng Sheng leaned weakly against Pei Yin.

"Dad will fan you."

As he spoke, Pei Yin took out a paper fan made from old newspapers he had found in the house yesterday and fanned Sheng Sheng with it.

"Why is it a bit comical?"

"Why didn't the production team provide them with fans? How can they stand this heat!"

"My precious treasure, you've suffered!"

When the production team saw the comments saying they were mistreating the guests, they were disdainful. They thought, "This isn't enough to kill anyone; it just shows how poor their heat tolerance is. Some people are sleeping perfectly well without air conditioning or fans!"

That's right, that person is Ji Yuzhi, who hasn't appeared yet. Since the other guests were shown first, and it's already 9:30, the production team has already done more than enough by putting them last. I didn't expect these two lazybones to still be asleep, so don't blame me for being impolite.

The production crew stormed into Ji Yuzhi's room with a large camera. They found Ji Yuzhi lying sprawled on the bed, wearing only a pair of red briefs. Chaochao was lying on top of him, wearing only a pair of children's underwear with a Nezha pattern.

The two were snoring, one loud and one soft, like music playing.

These two are really good at sleeping! The production team was speechless.

"Holy crap, this episode's got some kind of pornographic content!"

"Those red underwear...is this his zodiac year?"

"Don't forget, he has a really good physique, haha."

"Not bad, huh?"

"What are you doing, you little yellow girl?!"

The audience was outraged by this scene.

The director grinned smugly, "Serves you right for not getting out of bed, now you're bringing me traffic!"

A staff member kindly reminded Ji Yuzhi, "Teacher Ji, wake up! We've already started filming!"

"Why are you taking pictures so early in the morning..." His voice was still a little hoarse as he had just woken up.

He opened his eyes and saw the camera pointed at him.

"Damn it! I'm not wearing pants!" He hurriedly got up and tried to find a blanket to cover his lower body, but he couldn't find one. In desperation, he put on his pants in front of the entire audience.

After pulling up his pants, he saw Chaochao still snoring, and felt a surge of anger he couldn't vent. This kid! Aren't kids supposed to never sleep? He walked around and stole food from other people's houses yesterday; it's normal for him to sleep a little longer. If this kid had woken him up earlier, he wouldn't have embarrassed himself in front of everyone!

He gave Chaochao's bottom a hard slap: "Still sleeping! Get up!"

"Why is he hitting a child so early in the morning?!"

"This kid is going to be really unlucky because of him!"

"Anyone who watched yesterday's program knows that this kid isn't a good person either; they're just torturing each other."

Startled by the slap, Chaochao groggily got up and dressed.

"What are we going to eat? I'm hungry."

"What are you eating for? Lazy pigs don't deserve to eat!"

Ji Yuzhi, filled with resentment and anger, was about to wash up when he saw the task card on the table.

Meet at 10:00! What time is it now? I glanced at my watch; it's already 9:40. We should leave soon!

He said he wouldn't eat breakfast just in anger, but he didn't expect it to actually happen. He quickly washed up himself and then helped Chaochao wash up, and the two of them rushed to the meeting point.

Meanwhile, the other fathers and children also set off for the meeting point.
