Lin Ke and Xu Fan returned to the house. Fu Chun and Lingling, the two little girls, were tired from playing. Xu Fan let them wash up first, and after they finished washing up, they lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

Xu Fan patted Fu Chun's head. The little girl was fast asleep, emitting soft snores. She must have been really tired from playing all day.

Lin Ke and Xu Fan tidied up and prepared to go to sleep. When Xu Fan came out after taking a shower, he saw Lin Ke standing guard at the door with her arms crossed, looking at him with a serious expression.

When Xu Fan opened the door and saw Lin Ke like this, he felt a little nervous and unconsciously swallowed.

In fact, he had a vague idea of ​​what Lin Ke wanted to ask him. Lin Ke was very good to him and really cared about him.

Their eyes met, and Xu Fan lowered his head guiltily, not even knowing why he felt guilty.

Lin Ke sighed and said earnestly, "Speak, Xu Fan."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan shuddered and decided to play dumb.

"Lin Ke, what did you say...?"

Lin Ke smiled. It was really funny. Xu Fan had even learned to play dumb. Unfortunately, he didn't have much experience and wasn't very good at it. Anyone could see through him at a glance.

"Tonight, during the game of Truth or Dare, you said the person you like wasn't on the show..."

Hearing this, Xu Fan, who had just raised his head, quickly lowered it again, a faint blush appearing on his face.

"Actually, I'm quite happy. Ji Yuzhi is stupid and clumsy, and Ji Feng is cunning and manipulative. I'm relieved that you don't like them."

"But if you like someone I don't know, as your friend, I'll be even more worried. Xu Fan, you're too naive. I'm afraid you'll be bullied or deceived. Can you tell me what kind of person the person you like is? It's okay. If you really don't want to tell me, let's rest first. I'll be there whenever you want to tell me."

After hearing Lin Ke's words, Xu Fan was stunned. In fact, his biggest feeling about his feelings was that he was not worthy of liking someone as outstanding as Fu Qingci.

However, he simply couldn't suppress it. Ever since his last break and outing with Lin Ke, after Lin Ke enlightened him, the more he spent time with Fu Qingci, the more he liked her.

Before he realized his feelings for Fu Qingci, he and Fu Qingci could still get along normally. Fu Qingci would eat with him and pat his head while he was working, and he didn't think anything of it.

Later, when Fu Qingci looked at him earnestly with those beautiful eyes and gently stroked him, he felt his whole body burning up. It was too obvious; if this continued, he would be discovered sooner or later.

He hasn't seen Fu Qingci for the past few days and has been suffering from insomnia every night, thinking about how to face him after the show ends. Right now, he just wants to escape and has even considered leaving Fu Qingci's company.

But he quickly rejected this idea. Brother Fu was so good to him, he had to do his best to help Brother Fu at work, even if his help was insignificant to Fu Qingci.

Moreover, whenever he had free time, Fu Qingci's image would appear in his mind.

He dared not tell anyone that he had such a filthy thought.

He could only endure this torment alone.

So annoying.

But I also really want to find someone to talk to.

He pondered for a moment, so long that Lin Ke wanted to pat Xu Fan and tell him to get some rest, but finally received Xu Fan's reply.

"He...is so incredibly good to me. He's always so considerate of my feelings, always quietly kind to me, afraid of making me feel burdened, coming up with all sorts of reasons, and he's also very gentle and patient..."

Lin Ke knew immediately who Xu Fan was talking about.

Who else could be making such quiet sacrifices, afraid of burdening him? Besides Fu Qingci, it would be someone else.

Sigh, I really have to thank Fu Qingci for telling Xu Fan some things, otherwise, it would have been ages before Xu Fan discovered his silent dedication.

Now, with his help, Xu Fan has made his feelings clear. Fu Qingci clearly likes Xu Fan and is very possessive. It would be great if they could just get together.

When the time comes, he will definitely secretly ask Fu Qingci for credit. He is not greedy. If Fu Qingci can give him a stable job, that would be great, hehehe.

However, before that, he had to tell Fu Qingci that he had no feelings for Xu Fan and simply regarded Xu Fan as a younger brother and friend. In this episode, Ji Feng and Ji Yuzhi's feelings were too obvious, and the old man was definitely jealous. He was afraid that when the old man got angry, he would deal with those two idiots and take care of him as well.

Xu Fan continued to talk about Fu Qingci's good points, her face getting redder and redder, like a big, bright red apple, which made Lin Ke speechless and amused.

"stop!"

Lin Ke interrupted Xu Fan from continuing to talk about Fu Qingci's merits. If he were allowed to continue without being interrupted, Xu Fan might talk all night.

After Xu Fan stopped, Lin Ke asked again, "Um...it's Fu Qingci, right?"

Xu Fan's eyes widened in surprise. How did Lin Ke know? Was it obvious to him?

Did Lin Ke guess it? He's really smart! But if Lin Ke finds out, will she think he's overestimating himself, liking such an outstanding person? Will she also dislike him...?

Although Lin Ke added the word "ma," his tone was full of certainty.

Xu Fan lowered his head, knowing he couldn't hide it anymore, and mumbled a low reply: "...Yes."

Lin Ke was the one who was shocked. What kind of charm did this old man have that made Xu Fan, such a shy person, admit that he liked him?

Noticing Xu Fan's emotions, Lin Ke frowned: "You should have figured it out, right? I guessed it a long time ago. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, and I won't have any other thoughts about you. You seem to have something on your mind? We're friends, can you tell me?"

Xu Fan raised her head again, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Lin Ke, but her brows remained furrowed, making her look very conflicted.

Xu Fan was grateful that Lin Ke didn't dislike him after finding out, and even more grateful that Lin Ke was willing to let him confide in her.

"I... Brother Fu treats me as a friend, but I've developed such filthy feelings for him. I'm terrified he'll find out, and then he'll definitely hate me..."

How could Fu Qingci hate him when she likes Xu Fan so much?

Xu Fan is slow to notice things, but he's usually very perceptive of other people's subtle emotions, whether they're angry or sad, and he'll comfort them immediately. Fu Qingci has been so good to him, and her affection is evident in every action, yet he still doesn't realize it.

He's a friend, but has he ever seen male best friends holding hands every day, touching each other's faces and heads? Girls like holding hands, but what male best friends would do that?

"Xu Fan, I can guarantee that Fu Qingci absolutely likes you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan simply shook his head listlessly, "No way..."

"Why not? Be confident, Xu Fan. You are great and deserve to be liked by many people. Even if Fu Qingci doesn't like you, you said he considers you a good friend, right? So he won't hate you, just like me. I know a lot about you, but I definitely don't hate you."

Xu Fan shook his head again: "This is different."

Fu Qingci is the person involved. Xu Fan doesn't know if he likes boys or girls. He probably likes girls. He would probably feel disgusted to be liked by a boy. In that case, they might not even be able to stay friends.

Lin Ke slapped her forehead. This kid is so stubborn!

He couldn't persuade him anymore. Old man, come on, if you like him so much, just confess sooner rather than later. You know Xu Fan is sensitive and prone to overthinking.

"Sigh, anyway, don't let this cause internal conflict. Just let things take their course. But last time, no matter how much I pressed you, you wouldn't admit it, yet you admitted it today. Does this mean... you've come to your senses?"

Xu Fan softly replied with an "Mmm," her ears turning red, looking quite embarrassed.

"Haha, you're so easy to tease, Xu Fan. It's getting late, you should get some rest and not overthink things."

"OK."

After they finished speaking, Xu Fan and Lin Ke went to bed to prepare for sleep.

Fu Chun, fast asleep, had no idea how important the news she had missed was...

The live stream started early the next morning.

"How did I finish watching another episode so quickly?!"

"If it's one issue per month, when is the next issue?!"

"The children are going to school soon, and many of the guests are university students, so it will probably be during the winter break."

"No way! My beloved Fanfan doesn't even have a Weibo account! That means I won't be able to see him for six months!!!"

"It would be a lot of fun in winter, but I'm worried the director might be too cunning and choose some weird places to torture the dads and kids."

"I'd prefer something a bit weirder; that would be more fun!!!"

Fu Qingci got up early to get ready, she was so excited to see Fanfan today.

He was willing to give up watching the live stream for this reason. Fanfan's live stream was important, but his image was also important. He had discovered that Fanfan was a sucker for good looks and was always staring at his face. So he decided to make himself look good so that Fanfan could have her fill of looking at him and wouldn't be allowed to look at anyone else.

He wished he didn't have to bring Fu Chun home with him; he wanted to be alone with Fanfan.

Forget it, considering Fu Chun always helps out, I'll take him along.

After getting dressed, Fu Qingci suddenly felt a little nervous. He realized that he had neither accepted money from Fanfan for the clothes nor replied to her. He wondered if Fanfan would feel disappointed and sad if she didn't see his reply when she got her phone.

The money has now been returned. Fu Qingci thought for a minute and immediately came up with a reason.

He opened the cabinet, took out a new phone, and quickly transferred the data from the old phone to the new one.

He'll pretend to be clueless when the time comes. If Fanfan asks, he'll say... his phone fell into the water, his old phone broke, and the new phone doesn't have the chat history from the old phone. He hasn't had time to read the messages Fanfan sent him yet.

Isn't that too unbelievable? After all, his phone is waterproof...

Never mind, picking up Fanfan is the most important thing. Let's go!

After getting up, the fathers and children headed to the meeting point.

The production team also prepared breakfast, which made the guests and viewers sigh that this live broadcast was much more humane than the last one. But we can't praise them too much, or they'll get cocky and might mess with us again in the next episode.

Xu Fan was very curious about what the task was this morning. On the last day of the last episode, the production team only asked them to tidy up the house. Was it going to be the same task again this time?

During breakfast, Ji Yuzhi started to fawn over him again.

"Xu Fan, this is delicious, try it!"

He was about to serve Xu Fan some food when he said that.

Xu Fan quickly shook his head and refused: "Okay, I can do it myself."

But Ji Yuzhi wasn't annoyed at all, because Xu Fan had at least eaten the dishes he recommended.

He figured it out yesterday when he got home: how many people in the world are truly in love with each other?

Mutual love is rare. It doesn't matter if Xu Fan likes someone else; he can be the mistress. Since Xu Fan is so popular, there will definitely be more people around him—mistresses number four, five, six… He'll grab the mistress position first, and then if Xu Fan breaks up with the person he likes, the position of the main wife will fall into his lap, and he can become the main wife! He'll only be one level below the main wife.

Ji Feng raised an eyebrow. Yesterday he looked half-dead, what happened today? Has he fully recovered?

Lin Ke was speechless. Xu Fan had clearly stated that the person he liked was no longer on the show. Didn't he understand? He meant it was impossible for him to like Ji Yuzhi, yet he kept trying to get close to her. He was quite persistent.

After the meal, the production team led the fathers and children to the place where they first met and milked the cows and sheep.

Ji Feng's face darkened instantly. Why go back to a place he'd already been to? That place held painful memories for him.

"Why did you go again? Want some pearl goat milk?"

"Hahaha, this is hilarious!"

"It looks really delicious, doesn't it?"

"You greedy girl, go drink it then."

As soon as the fathers stepped onto the ranch, a man rushed out and gave Ji Feng a huge bear hug. Ji Feng felt like he was being strangled, and he didn't know why the man was hugging him.

Seeing Ji Feng's stunned expression, the man realized that he hadn't introduced himself yet, and must have startled Ji Feng.

"Hello, I'm the ranch owner. Ever since you and your baby made 'pearl goat milk' that went viral online, my phone has been ringing off the hook. So many people have been asking me to buy pearl goat milk. Although I know they're joking, and of course we wouldn't sell goat manure, they still buy our fresh cow milk, fresh goat milk, and dairy products after their jokes. It's all thanks to you!"

Thank you so much!

"I'll get a share."

"Does anyone have the owner's phone number? I need to go and tease him a bit before buying anything."

"Look at Ji Feng's face, it's all black, it's hilarious."

Ji Feng's face darkened, but the venue owner in front of him seemed oblivious, continuing to praise him incessantly.

The guests were also trying not to laugh, but Ji Feng felt incredibly embarrassed. This was the worst he had ever been in his life. He had never been so ashamed before. While he was hospitalized, he even found his haters online. He had only been on the show for a few days, and he already had haters.

Those haters made memes out of screenshots of him covered in cow dung and milk and posted them in the comments section, which infuriated him.

After he returned from the hospital, everyone seemed to have forgotten about it. Even that little bitch Ji Yuzhi didn't mention it again. Now, they all remembered it again, didn't they?

He doesn't need the praise.

Ji Yuzhi was indeed laughing so hard he couldn't stand up straight. He patted Ji Feng on the shoulder: "Wow, Ji Feng, you're amazing! I think you could be the spokesperson for bubble tea!"

"Wow, only Ji Yuzhi is comforting Ji Feng!"

"Yes, yes, use humor to comfort Ji Feng, that way he won't feel embarrassed."

"Um...why do I feel like Ji Feng is the one who's more embarrassed?"

"Does anyone else remember that Ji Feng was covered in sheep droppings and milk, and that it was related to Ji Yuzhi...?"

"Oh dear, that's how it is with enemies. We didn't get along at first, but look how good we are now!"

The owner's eyes lit up: "I think it's a good idea, are you willing?"

Ji Feng was furious, clenching his fists tightly.

Willing my ass!
