Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 612: Big Brother’s Smile
Almost making his sister cry, Jin Shilin braced himself to console her.
He shared his previous thoughts with a slightly disgruntled tone, "Gu Cheng is often not at home, and you order takeout every day. Miaomiao might not grow tall easily."
’Not grow tall’ is Tuanzi’s sore spot.
She quietly withdrew her chubby paw and dryly explained, "That’s not true. Miaomiao often goes to Second Uncle’s and Third Uncle’s for meals, and also eats at Brother Wen Li’s house."
She counted on her fingers, "One meal at this house, one meal at that house, and during filming, eating box meals. At most, we order takeout one day a week."
Jin Shilin instantly understood: "One day, three meals, three times."
Tuanzi once again quietly withdrew her chubby paw. She realized what this cousin was unhappy about.
For this type of concern, Tuanzi wouldn’t get angry.
Jin Shilin displayed that elite demeanor, his speech was slow yet intimidating, making the senior brothers feel like they were being stared at by a big brother, and they silently put down the skewers in their hands.
Ji Zhangzhuo chuckled dryly to smooth things over.
"But we’ve already ordered it, wasting it is no good."
Tuanzi nodded quickly.
The senior brother who didn’t stop them also nodded guiltily, "Talking about this while eating is such a buzzkill, let’s talk after eating."
East Gate West, who had been quietly gnawing on meat, raised his head, dissatisfied, "Why are you all listening to him? If you want to eat, eat, if you want to drink, just..."
The rest of his words got swallowed after Jin Shilin silently mouthed the word ’dog’.
He quickly split the meals, took his portion upstairs, his back looking somewhat hurried and flustered.
Jin Shilin still took the initiative to apologize to Tuanzi.
"Sorry for affecting your appetite."
Tuanzi had already picked up a handful of skewers again, eating with her mouth full of oil. Hearing this, she raised her little head in confusion, "Huh? Whose appetite was affected?"
Jin Shilin fell silent.
After leaving Jiangshui Cloud, Jin Shilin hesitated a lot but still got Gu Cheng’s contact through Wen Li.
As for the string of smiley faces Wen Li sent, he ignored them all.
Tuanzi was still unaware that her newly acquainted cousin was going to meet with her big brother.
After finishing the skewers, she exercised in the yard with a bit of guilt.
Bending down to pat her short legs, she muttered quietly, "Legs, oh legs, you have to work hard. You can’t stop growing just because Miaomiao ate barbecue. Miaomiao only eats it once a week, you have to grow at least six days a week."
[Ancient Martial System: ...]
In the blink of an eye, it was the second episode of "Warm Company."
As soon as Tuanzi and Li Zhou appeared on camera, the live stream’s popularity skyrocketed.
The adorable child and the handsome guy with an affinity for animals were still quite popular. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
The guests continued their live streaming as usual, while Ji Zhangzhuo, temporarily serving as an assistant, chatted with the other artists’ assistants and staff.
East Gate East followed behind Ji Zhangzhuo timidly, head down and saying nothing.
According to the plan, Ji Zhangzhuo was to serve as an assistant, accompanying the junior brothers and sisters in recording the show, while Duan Xiayou took Tantai Yi and East Gate East to discuss matters with a Martial Arts Association president.
If this matter could be agreed upon, Tuanzi might have the opportunity to go abroad with association members to perform and promote traditional martial arts, drastically increasing her popularity.
Halfway through leaving, Duan Xiayou and Tantai Yi found East Gate East missing. He wasn’t answering calls, and they almost thought the East Gate East brothers had traveled again.
On the other hand, after Tuanzi, Li Zhou, and Ji Zhangzhuo disembarked from the plane, they found an extra person with them, none other than the Fifth or Sixth Senior Brother whom Duan Xiayou couldn’t locate.
At that moment, the three senior brothers and sisters were all dumbfounded, leaning sideways in shock.
East Gate East whimpered, "It wasn’t me; East Gate West reneged and even went particle form to hide in the plane to follow you over."
That day, it was East Gate East’s turn to control the body; he was very timid but obedient and willing to follow his senior brothers’ and sisters’ arrangements.
Halfway through the journey, East Gate West forcibly took control, going particle form and fleeing.
After arriving in a strange city with Tuanzi and the others, East Gate West irresponsibly hid away again, returning control back to him, leaving him to face the confusion and anger of his fellow disciples.
"He’s really something!" East Gate East weakly cursed.
"Ah, Fifth Senior Brother, if you can’t swear, you don’t have to,"
Tuanzi advised him, shrugging indifferently, "No big deal, just treat it as us bringing two assistants."
She was very magnanimous, and Li Zhou didn’t mind either, but Ji Zhangzhuo, who planned to go eat meat while Tuanzi and Li Zhou were live, was not happy.
His discontent was too obvious, so East Gate East behaved like a quail, pitifully trailing behind him like a little tail.
However, the more East Gate East followed Ji Zhangzhuo, the more Ji Zhangzhuo suspected he was planted by the senior master as an inside man, with the purpose of monitoring him from eating meat.
Whenever Ji Zhangzhuo wanted, he could spend ten minutes getting someone to open up to him.
At this time, he was shoulder to shoulder with several artists’ assistants, seemingly forming a close brotherhood.
"I checked, there’s a famous BBQ place nearby. Tonight, let’s go have some skewers and beer together!" suggested one assistant.
Another chimed in, "This weather is perfect for crayfish, let’s get a few pounds of spicy, garlic, and five-spice ones!"
The more they talked, the more their mouths watered.
Ji Zhangzhuo also swallowed some saliva.
Looking back, East Gate East was staring into space with his head down, seemingly not noticing, so he quickly gestured ’okay’ to the assistants.
At night, after confirming East Gate East in the same room had fallen asleep, Ji Zhangzhuo sneaked out the door.
Soon after he left, a groggy East Gate East phased through the wall and followed him out.
Once they left, the system dutifully notified Tuanzi.
During a video call with her big brother, Tuanzi scratched her head.
"I suppose they’re going to sneak some meat,"
she said with a cheerful smile to Gu Cheng on the other end, "because Second Senior Brother upset the Senior Master. Senior Master forbade him from eating meat for a week, but Second Senior Brother loves meat and just snuck out to eat it."
Mentioning sneaking food, she suddenly touched her belly.
"I’m hungry too,"
implying that she would also go for a night snack.
Gu Cheng did not stop her, as it’s normal for growing kids with good digestion to have a night snack. He often went to bed hungry during his student days.
"Eat something easy to digest, nothing too heavy, oily, salty, or spicy,"
Tuanzi was about to nod when Gu Cheng added, "No cold or overly sweet stuff either."
"Okay, okay," Tuanzi whispered, "Big brother, you’re getting more and more... handsome!"
Gu Cheng paused, expecting to hear the word ’nagging,’ and his expression turned momentarily comical.
Tuanzi made a heart with her hands towards the camera and hung up, going next door to find Li Zhou.
On the other end, Gu Cheng smiled at his darkened phone screen.
The assistant director who came to discuss something with him was startled by this smile.
The assistant director quickly reflected on whether they hadn’t been performing well enough today. The smile of the serious iceberg director is not something everyone can withstand.
