Live Stream: Overly Pampered Education Creates Three Superstars in One Family

Chen Chu leaned against the door frame, looking at the scrolling comments on his phone screen. The comments about "dressing too handsomely will lead to early dating" made him click his tongue.

He didn't rush to refute, but glanced at the camera first and spoke in a lazy tone.

"What? Are you jealous of my son's good looks? If you're envious, just say so. If not, I'll open a class sometime and teach you how to cut hair and how to find a hairstyle that suits you."

Netizens couldn't hold back.

"666, this is something I really need to learn."

"I think it's okay, drive quickly."

"There were too many people there, I'm kneeling down to you now."

In the studio, Zhao Shuilang's face visibly darkened: "Nonsense! I won't even mention what happened before, but dressing him up like this is completely setting a bad example for the child. Boys this age should be focusing on their studies, not on these appearances!"

Chen Chu glanced down at the comments section, then looked up at the camera and spoke in a very serious tone.

"Look at the comments, son, Expert Zhao is praising you for being handsome."

Zhao Shuilang's voice suddenly rose: "Who said he's handsome?!"

Chen Chu looked completely innocent: "That means I didn't praise you."

"It's not that... anyway, dressing up so handsomely isn't a good idea..."

Zhao Shuilang was momentarily speechless after hearing his words, and hadn't had time to regain her composure.

Chen Chu added, "So that's a compliment?"

Zhao Shuilang opened her mouth, realizing that no matter how she responded, she would get caught up in the conversation.

When she said she hadn't complimented him, Chen Chu said, "That means you did compliment him." When she said she did compliment him, it was equivalent to admitting that Chen Ziran was handsome.

Her face flushed red, and for a moment she didn't know how to refute it, only able to say, "But he's dressed so handsomely, he's just asking for trouble..."

Chen Chu remained unhurried: "That's a compliment."

Zhao Shuilang was completely speechless.

The comments section was filled with laughter.

Chen Chu did not stop there.

He leaned back on the sofa, changed his tone, and continued slowly, "I say, Dr. Zhao, don't be so hasty. Look at you, at your age, still so hot-tempered, why bother? I don't deny what you said, that dressing too nicely or too handsomely in junior and senior high school can indeed lead to early romance and may indeed have some negative effects."

He then changed the subject, "But you also need to understand that dressing appropriately is fine. You're criticizing someone for dressing up neatly and attractively during their free time to attend a class reunion? Don't be so hasty. In life, you need to work hard, but you also need to know how to balance work and rest. If he abandons everything for studying, that's the last thing I want to see."

Zhao Shuilang was silent for a moment, then her voice became steady again, but the sharpness in her tone remained unchanged.

"If you don't study, how can you live the life you want? If you don't study, you'll never find a wife. Even if one or two blind girls fall for you during your student days, it will all be for nothing later."

Chen Chu watched the screen where the director had specifically cut to Zhao Shuilin. She was sitting in the studio, her face flushed, her voice filled with a desperate insistence.

He couldn't help but click his tongue: "Expert Zhao, let me ask you a question: have you ever been in a relationship?"

Zhao Shuilang's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure, her voice carrying a hint of cold laughter: "My family is very happy and harmonious. You don't need to worry about it."

Chen Chu waved his hand, too lazy to say anything: "I'm not going to argue with you about whether your family is happy or not."

He looked around, as if searching for a point of reference, and then continued, "Ask Dr. Zhou next to you. Did he find a partner after graduating from university, even though he studied hard? No, did he find a partner after graduating with his master's and doctoral degrees? Did he meet his soulmate? Was his love life happy?"

Zhou Zhenyang, who was sitting quietly watching the show with a water glass in his hand, had a very interesting expression on his face when he heard this.

He put down his water glass, cleared his throat, and spoke with a calmness that he was trying to maintain after being offended.

"Parent, let's stick to the facts and stop making personal attacks."

His face was so red that even the camera lens couldn't hide it.

The live chat exploded.

[Hahaha, his face is bright red! Dr. Zhou's face is as red as a tomato!]

[No, Chen Gou, please don't stab Dr. Zhou with a knife!!!]

[Loving only one person in a lifetime, Chen Gou, someone's blushing for you again.]

[I really can't hold it in anymore. This is totally describing me. In high school, my mom absolutely forbade me from dating; in college, she relentlessly pushed me to study for certifications; and now that I've graduated, she's insisting I go on blind dates, but I don't even know any of those people. How can I possibly have feelings for them?!]

[Exactly the same. Back in school, even glancing at someone of the opposite sex would make you an oddball. Now, right after graduation, they're pressuring you to get married. Do they think your partner is like a product in a supermarket—something you can just buy as soon as it's on the shelf?]

The comments section was filled with complaints, as if everyone had been hit on the same sore spot.

Chen Chu did not pursue the two experts further.

He put down his phone and turned to look at Chen Ziran standing next to the mirror.

Chen Ziran was leaning against the wall, touching his newly cut hair, with a smile he couldn't suppress on his lips.

Seeing his vain expression, Chen Chu patted him on the shoulder: "Ziran, I don't ask anything of you. As long as you don't cause me any big trouble, I won't say anything to you."

He paused, "After all, your dad hopes you study hard, but he also hopes you can take care of other problems while you're studying. High school romances are much purer than those in the real world; they're simply about looks. Once you enter the real world, it's not just about looks anymore; you also have to compete on money, luck, family background, jobs... you have to compete on everything."

Chen Ziran, who was happily touching her hair, blushed instantly upon hearing these words.

He shook off Chen Chu's hand from his shoulder, his tone carrying a hint of embarrassment and anger at having his thoughts exposed.

"Dad, you underestimate me! I would never date in middle or high school!"

He stood up straight, as if afraid others wouldn't believe him, his expression serious as if he were making an oath.

"I, Chen Ziran, am making this clear today: even if I jump off this building and never find a wife for the rest of my life, I will never date in junior or senior high school! You see!"

Chen Chu leaned against the door frame, looking at his confident expression, but didn't expose him. He just gave a meaningful "Oh".
