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

Ji Yuzhi was in a great mood; his name and Xu Fan's name were read out together!

And he won first place again!

According to the ranking, Ji Yuzhi and Xu Fan went up first to select ingredients, and each of them could choose eight items.

Both of them took some meat and vegetables, and the seasonings were provided free of charge by the production team this time.

Lin Ke then stepped forward to choose, and the second person could choose six items.

Pei Yin, who came in third, could choose four items, while Ji Feng, who came in last, could only choose two.

Since Ji Feng wasn't there, Chao Chao picked out the ingredients for him, but what good would it do if he chose them? Who would cook for him?

So the production team suggested that whichever father was willing to take Chaochao in could take away the two dishes from their group, and Chaochao would stay at their house for a meal.

After the program team made the announcement, the fathers' eyes immediately darted around, and they pretended not to understand.

Chaochao is a notorious troublemaker on the show, practically a miniature version of Ji Yuzhi. He cries at the drop of a hat and is very picky; no one would want to take care of a child like him.

Xu Fan frowned and said softly, "I'll do it."

Although Chaochao is not very obedient, he is still a child. It's just a meal, which Xu Fan can accept.

The production team continued, "Because there were instances of guests freeloading meals on previous episodes, some viewers felt this was unfair. Therefore, the production team will monitor all guests to ensure they don't freeload meals."

Xu Fan and Lin Ke exchanged a glance. Fortunately, they only said they couldn't freeload meals, not that they couldn't sleep in the same room.

Ji Yuzhi was devastated. He had finally won first place again and received so many ingredients. He was even planning to use his inability to handle the ingredients as an excuse to go to Xu Fan's house and cook with him, and have a meal with Xu Fan like last time. Now the production team suddenly said it was not possible!

"Did any viewers say it was unfair?"

"Yes, I love watching Keke and Fanfan cook and eat together."

"Oh, I know, it must have been Pei Yin's fans who said it!"

"Yeah! It seems like Pei Yin is the only one who hasn't ever gone to someone else's house for a meal."

"We're not taking the blame for this! Besides, Ji Feng hasn't gone to anyone's house for meals, so how could it not be his fans who reported him!"

Whether it was Pei Yin or Ji Feng's fans who reported it, or whether the production team used audience reports as an excuse, we have no way of knowing.

Pei Yin was shocked to hear this. He had always silently followed the rules and assumed that he could not go to other people's houses for meals and could only use his own ingredients to cook. Now he was being told that he could go to other people's houses for meals.

What's even more devastating is that he just found out that this behavior has been banned!

Then, everyone went home to prepare dinner.

……

Ji Feng was forcibly taken to the hospital. After a check-up, it turned out there was nothing wrong; it was just some minor external injury that had been treated.

Ji Feng held up the mirror to examine his face. Fortunately, there were only minor scratches and slight swelling, nothing too serious.

Looking back on his actions, he realized he had acted too impulsively. Even he himself couldn't understand why he was so impulsive. It was just a competition; why take it so seriously?

Was it because of Xu Fan? He only went on the show because he found Xu Fan's changes interesting and wanted to have some fun. He wanted to know if Xu Fan, despite his apparent changes, was still the same as before, someone who would wholeheartedly follow you if you gave him a little benefit.

He came to this show to test himself.

Who knew that Xu Fan had really changed, completely changed, but this Xu Fan with such a big change was more attractive to him than the timid Xu Fan of the past.

Although it was nothing serious, the production team still asked him to rest at the hospital first and return to the show the next day.

Ji Feng agreed. It was perfect timing, as he didn't want to go back to the grasslands either. Not only were there bugs everywhere, but the kids were also disobedient, giving him headaches and making it inconvenient to even go to the toilet.

The production crew, worried that he might be bored, returned Ji Feng's phone to him.

Ji Feng took the phone and turned it on.

During the setup process, Ji Feng thought his sister must be very surprised that her brother had gone to participate in a variety show without telling her. He was afraid that Ji Shu would ask all sorts of questions, so he didn't tell her.

Given how much his sister loves the show, she definitely won't miss an episode.

His sister must have been terribly worried when she saw he was injured.

When I turned on my phone, a lot of messages popped up.

Ji Shu did indeed send him a message, and besides that, there was also... Jiang Yichuan?

He didn't tell Jiang Yichuan that he was coming to this show. After he ran into Jiang Yichuan in Yu County last time, Jiang Yichuan invited him to play basketball once. After that, he made an excuse that he was not feeling well and would not go out to play basketball during the summer vacation. Jiang Yichuan did not send him any messages for many days. How could it be such a coincidence that Jiang Yichuan found out he had only been out for two days?

When I opened the chat window with Jiang Yichuan, the first thing I saw was his concern.

Jiang Yichuan: ...How old are you to fall off a horse? Did you die?!

It seems he has already watched the show. Ji Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Yichuan did not realize that he was on the show because he was interested in Xu Fan. Otherwise, given Jiang Yichuan's personality, he would definitely feel betrayed and question him.

Ji Feng continued scrolling upwards, becoming increasingly terrified as he read.

Jiang Yichuan: Why are you so close to Xu Fan, you two bastards!

Jiang Yichuan: I knew you had your eye on Xu Fan. Tell me, when did you two get together?

There were so many messages that Ji Feng's head was spinning, so he simply scrolled up and started reading from the day he left.

From these messages, he could tell that Jiang Yichuan had discovered it. To be honest, Ji Feng was a little angry. Jiang Yichuan treated Xu Fan as his possession, but in reality, Xu Fan had nothing to do with Jiang Yichuan. Although he was Jiang Yichuan's brother, he was also an independent individual. What right did Jiang Yichuan have to say that about him, and what right did he have to care how he treated Xu Fan?

It turns out that on the day he left, Jiang Yichuan wanted to ask him to play games together, but after not getting a reply for a long time, he went to his house.

How did he find out? Maybe Ji Shu told him. Although Jiang Yichuan seemed very angry, could their brotherhood of so many years really turn against each other because of Xu Fan?

I'll explain to Jiang Yichuan that he's just interested in Xu Fan and wants to play around with her, just like he did when he saved her. That should solve everything.

Ji Feng then opened the chat window with Ji Shu.

The sister's concern that I had imagined did not materialize.

Sister: ...When someone asked you to ride a horse, you insisted on running and fell. How embarrassing! I don't even want to admit you're my brother anymore. Take good care of your injury.

Ji Feng: ……

He had just comforted himself, telling himself it wasn't shameful and it would be alright, when his own younger sister started to dislike him.

At least my sister showed some concern for me.

Scrolling up, you'll see Ji Shu first questioning him about why he didn't say he knew Xu Fan and why he went on the show without a word, even keeping it from his own sister. She's angry and needs Xu Fan's autographed photo to appease him...

Ji Feng's blood pressure rose as he watched, but in the end he just sighed, left the WeChat page, and decided to watch yesterday's replay.

He hasn't been on any TV shows yet, so I don't know how this show will portray him.

He had just opened the variety show's page when the first new comment in the comments section caught his eye.

"Raise the JJCP banner high!"

The accompanying picture is of Ji Yuzhi holding him, and another picture of the two of them looking at each other.

Ji Feng looked bewildered, then scrolled down, his expression growing increasingly grim.

There are actually people shipping him and Ji Yuzhi as a couple? Quite a few people, and the key point is that according to netizens, he's the bottom?

Seeing those comments, Ji Feng was so angry that he almost fainted. Helpless, he turned off his phone and closed his eyes to rest.

Jiang Yichuan accidentally fell asleep while preparing to watch the live stream this morning, and slept until noon.

Looking at the blazing sun outside the window, he quickly turned on his phone to watch the live stream.

He wanted to see what the relationship between Ji Feng and Xu Fan really was!

But as he watched, he noticed that Xu Fan was very cold towards Ji Feng. Moreover, not only was he cold, but he also always avoided him. Throughout the entire live broadcast, he hardly spoke to Ji Feng or even looked at him.

On the contrary, Ji Feng would always glance at Xu Fan before doing anything, as if trying to get his attention.

Jiang Yichuan suddenly realized that Ji Feng might not know that Xu Fan was going to participate in the program, but he was definitely going there for Xu Fan's sake.

You should have said so earlier. If it were in the past, if his good friend wanted a dog behind him, he would never have refused.

But now Xu Fan has completely transformed, become more attractive, and no longer just tries to please others like before. He's starting to get interested in her. What should he do?

Ji Feng, you were the one who acted ruthlessly first, so don't blame me for being unjust.

In the show, the fathers and their children went back to their respective homes to prepare dinner.

Chaochao looked at Xu Fan with longing eyes, deeply moved. Uncle Xu Fan was so kind to take him in, and his cooking was the best!

While Chaochao was still in a daze, Xu Fan had already walked over, patted Chaochao's little head, took his little hand, and said gently, "Let's go home."

Fu Chun pouted, clearly unhappy. Although she knew Xu Fan was kind and couldn't bear to see Chaochao alone, she didn't like Chaochao at all and didn't want him to hold Xu Fan's hand!

When she went home, her uncle would try to take her away from her; here, other children will try to take her away from her!

Xu Fan noticed Fu Chun's mood, and he was both amused and exasperated because the little girl was unhappy because he had taken the hand of another child.

Fu Chun was unhappy, so Xu Fan naturally had to coax her.

When they got home, Xu Fan told the two children to wash their hands first, then play for a while while he cooked.

The moment Chaochao entered Xu Fan's house, she felt like she had entered paradise. The air was fresh and had a faint fragrance.

Chaochao was unusually sensible; he took off his shoes and went inside wearing only his socks.

Even Fu Chun couldn't help but glance at him again. Was he that self-aware?

Fu Chun went inside to wash her hands and then went out to help Xu Fan wash vegetables.

Seeing Fu Chun so proactively helping Xu Fan, Chaochao felt that since he had been eating Xu Fan's Uncle's cooking for free, he should also help out.

So the two little ones washed vegetables while Xu Fan chopped vegetables and cooked.

"Wow, when did Chaochao become so well-behaved?"

"It feels like everyone becomes obedient in front of Fanfan."

"Because Fanfan is so gentle, no one would dare to act up in front of her."

Since they couldn't freeload anymore, there were only two children and one adult eating, so Xu Fan didn't cook much.

Xu Fan stir-fried beef with green peppers, stewed a corn and lamb rib soup, and also stir-fried several vegetarian dishes.

"Fanfan is so kind!"

"Even Ji Yuzhi, who mentored Chaochao in the last episode, was unwilling to take him in. Xu Fan is really a good person."

"It looks delicious!"

Chaochao ate it with his mouth full of oil, it was so delicious!

If only he were in a group with Uncle Xu Fan! Daddy Ji Feng, I hope you fall hard and don't come back. I want to keep eating Uncle Xu Fan's cooking!

After they finished eating, the production crew took Chaochao home.

Fu Chun still had a cold face and was sullen. Xu Fan also noticed that the girl hadn't said a few words to him since they came back. But Fu Chun liked Xu Fan too much and couldn't bear to let him do the work alone. Even when she was angry, she still helped Xu Fan wash vegetables.

Xu Fan pinched Fu Chun's cheek: "Chun Chun, what's wrong?"

Hearing Xu Fan's gentle question, Fu Chun felt a little wronged: "Why are you so kind? Nobody else wants to bring him home, but you bring him back and even let him hold your hand. Besides, he's so mean, I don't like him at all."

Xu Fan knew that was the reason. He first patted Fu Chun's head, then took her hand and led her to the stove. Fu Chun was puzzled. Why did Xu Fan bring her here after they had finished eating?

Xu Fan released Fu Chun's small hand, lifted the pot lid, and found a bowl of white stuff simmering inside.

Xu Fan quickly brought it out and placed it on the table, then squatted down and said to Fu Chun, "Only Chun Chun has this."

Fu Chun was both surprised and delighted. Although she hadn't figured out what it was yet, it was something Xu Fan had prepared just for her!

Fu Chun leaned closer curiously: "Is this milk?"

Xu Fan shook his head and told Fu Chun to move away. He sprinkled some white sugar on the bowl, then turned on the stove, heated the spoon with fire, and pressed the spoon onto the bowl. The sugar instantly turned brown.

Fu Chun, watching from the side, also noticed that this was not milk, but a solid; sugar and a spoon placed on it did not sink.

Xu Fan moved the spoon aside and handed Fu Chun a new one: "Would you like to try this? It's my first time making this, I don't know if it'll taste good."

Fu Chun nodded, scooped up a spoonful, and put it in her mouth. The caramel mixed with the rich milky flavor had a jelly-like texture, but it wasn't as hard as jelly, and it was warm.

good to eat!

Fu Chun looked up and asked Xu Fan, "What is this, Xu Fan? It's delicious!"

Xu Fan replied, "This is double-skin milk pudding with caramel on top. If it's delicious, eat more."

Fu Chun scooped up a spoonful and held it up: "Xu Fan, you eat too!"

Xu Fan shook his head: "Chun Chun, you eat it. I told you this is all for you."

Fu Chun's eyes sparkled as she ate. Today she had eaten mostly meat and salty food, and even the milk tea she drank yesterday was salty, so it was bound to be a bit cloying. Xu Fan's double-skin milk pudding was sweet, which she especially liked.

Xu Fan's eyes were full of doting affection; Chun Chun was so obedient and easy to coax.

As Fu Chun ate, she wondered when Xu Fan had made it. She had been washing vegetables the whole time. Then she remembered that Xu Fan had run out halfway through their meal in the house, saying she needed to clean up the stove. That must have been when she made it.

Lin Ke's cooking skills have improved, and the food tastes pretty good. However, he's used to eating and chatting with Xu Fan. Although Lingling can keep him company, she's rather introverted and still a bit like a child. He really misses Xu Fan.

As soon as the live stream ends, he'll sneak off to find Xu Fan!

Ji Yuzhi prepared a big meal that night. Although he was unhappy that he couldn't go see Xu Fan, he still had to eat and couldn't waste such good ingredients!

Pei Yin's cooking skills are as abstract as ever, but they are edible.

After everyone finished cooking, the live stream ended, and the dads and kids rested to prepare for the third day's tasks.
