Chapter 05

I glanced at the comments and then turned my head, ignoring them completely.

The drawing of lots began before the match.

Enemies tread on a narrow path; our family was matched against Haohao’s.

Because Guo Jia couldn’t participate, I opted out as well.

It was just my Dingbao competing against Haohao.

It seemed my refusal to cook for them this morning meant he truly hadn’t eaten.

Dingbao yanked hard a few times and immediately threw Haohao off balance.

Before long, he was dragged stumbling across the center line.

Afterward, our family competed against the winners of the other two groups in a final showdown.

With the preparation of both my son and me, we secured victory again.

Haohao was in terrible shape. He couldn’t out-pull the other kids either and ended up dead last.

Then the host began summarizing and commenting.

Everyone laughed and chatted, cooperating with the show’s flow.

Soon the sun was setting, and we began the ingredient selection segment.

The ingredients included: a whole free-range chicken, two sea bass, a pound of pork belly, and the rest were various vegetables.

Because Dingbao loved sweet and sour chicken nuggets, and I liked steamed sea bass.

I chose the free-range chicken and one sea bass.

The other two families chose the pork belly and the other sea bass, respectively.

After the first round ended, Haohao had only grabbed a plate of broccoli.

When Haohao brought the broccoli back, Guo Jia’s face instantly fell.

“Haohao, I want to eat meat. I want braised chicken tonight.”

She was actually acting spoiled toward her six-year-old son.

At this moment, the large screen nearby began spamming comments again.

“Wow! Jiajia is so cute.”

“Sister Jia is too funny!”

“This is true slacking off, actually acting spoiled to her six-year-old son, hahaha.”

“…”

Haohao puffed out his chest then, his eyes full of confidence.

“Don’t worry, Mommy. I’ll definitely make sure you get to eat it.”

Dingbao looked up just then, glancing at me with a bit of sadness.

I understood; he heard Haohao’s words and got a bad feeling.

After all, he loved sweet and sour chicken nuggets the most.

Sure enough, Haohao walked up to us holding the plate of broccoli.

“Auntie Lu, my mom really wants to eat chicken today.”

“I know you are the most loving auntie, can you trade the chicken with us?”

What did you call this?

During the competition, the two of you laid flat and slacked off.

When it’s time to distribute the prizes, you come right to my door to trade?

Keep dreaming!

I looked at Dingbao, who was sweating profusely from pulling so hard during the tug-of-war.

I gave Haohao a deep look.

Wearing a gentle and loving expression.

“Sorry, little kid.”

“No!”
