Chapter 111: You Won't Lie to Me
When he walked near the back door, Nanzhi found that Xu Lin and several other staff members were guarding there.

Seeing them, he quickly came over:
"The child didn't run away, did he? Thank God!"

Nanzhi didn't intend to make a big fuss and add to the pressure:
"Well, he's just walking around, he's not running around."

As he spoke, Nanzhi put his hand on Nanyi's shoulder.

In a protective gesture.

Nan Yi looked at her mother's hand.

I looked at my mother's face again.

Guilt welled up in me.

He lowered his head, a little afraid to look his mother in the eye.

Xu Lin was continuing to apologize over there.

He said that it was the staff's mistake not to keep an eye on Nan Yi. After all, she was a child and unexpected situations would always occur. During the filming of the guests, their program crew should at least take the responsibility of keeping an eye on the children.

Nanzhi kept nodding and listened patiently.

Xu Lin: "So that gentleman..."

Nanzhi realized that Xu Lin was talking about Lu Shixu.

"Do you know him?"

"He's a friend of the show's biggest investor, and it seems he also owns a small stake... But to that big shot, a small show like ours is really not worth mentioning. On the contrary, thanks to his connections, we have gained a lot of conveniences within the TV station."

Xu Lin spread his hands and explained, quite frankly.

When the filming of "Cub Observation Diary" began, its rating and priority within the platform were not high.

Apart from Fu Chao, the biggest highlight brought in by the investors, the rest of the production team, guests, etc. are all mediocre.

Otherwise, Xu Li would not have allowed "Nanzhi", an 18th-tier actress in the entertainment industry with a lot of scandals, to be included in the only four guest seats.

They can now occupy prime time slots and broadcast live first and edit later... All these conveniences come from just one sentence from Mr. Lu.

...No wonder the program crew was so cooperative with him. He walked into the camera so many times, but was never photographed from the front, and it didn't even cause any discussion.

Nanzhi listened thoughtfully.

She was not very clear about Lu Shixu's specific identity.

Just by looking at the car he drives, the clothes he wears, and the aura in his every move, one can tell that he not only has a good family background, but is also probably in a high position now.

However, Lu Shixu's status seemed to be higher than she thought.

...Of course, this has nothing to do with her.

Nanzhi quickly changed her mind and explained with a smile:

"He probably won't take it to heart."

Xu Lin breathed a sigh of relief:

"That's good."

Nanzhi said goodbye to the program crew and continued walking inside.

After running out for a while, the guests must have been waiting anxiously.

So, as soon as Nanzhi entered the kitchen, without even having time to say a word, he put in all his effort to complete all the orders he had accumulated in one go!

At her peak, she even had five pots on the stove - she was cutting vegetables, soup was boiling in the pot, vegetables were stir-frying in the pot, and the soup was almost cooked when she took the pot off the stove... She did this back and forth, squeezing out every minute and every second, and her efficiency was terrifying!
Even so, Nanzhi remained organized and no matter what the next step was, there was no panic or confusion on her face.

She is the king of this tiny stove, and she can command everything with a wave of her hand.

...It's just a show of skill!

[Here she comes! Here she comes! The time management master is here! 】

[It feels a bit like the fried rice stall in the previous issue... No, it's even better than the last issue! ]

[I was kneeling in front of the screen to watch the live broadcast. Don’t ask me why.]

[So some people should shut up immediately. They even criticized Nanzhi for leaving the diners behind and being unprofessional. ]

[Haha, are you serious about saying Nanzhi has no professional qualities? Do you really think she is a professional chef in a restaurant? Don't forget that she is an actress! ]

[Hey, what was Nanzhi doing when she suddenly went out just now? ]

[I don’t know… Wow! The flames are about to reach the ceiling! ]

[Watching Nanzhi cooking is like watching a stunt show...]

[Nanzhi, my sister, you are really cool! ]

……

Behind him, Nan Yi's eyes sparkled with a bright light, and he looked at his mother's calm face with great admiration. But beneath the light, there was also darkness.

Nan Yi felt extremely guilty when he thought about the little lie he had just told.

I was happy and depressed at the same time, and my little soul was almost split in two.

After waiting for a long time for Nanzhi to finish a batch of orders, he was so tired that he found a chair in the corner and sat down to rest for a while.

Xie Yu: "Well, you take a good rest, and leave the rest to me."

Nanzhi was worried and reminded him: "Call me if you need anything, and I will rest for five minutes."

After she walked away, Nan Yi followed her hesitantly.

After Nanzhi sat down, she realized that she had forgotten to bring her water cup.

Just as he was about to get up, Nan Yi came over cautiously with a cup of warm water.

"Mother."

Nanzhi could see at a glance that Nanyi was hesitant to speak.

"what's wrong?"

The gentler Nanzhi's voice was, the more guilty Nanyi felt.

He hung his head:

"sorry."

"Ok?"

"I didn't follow that uncle because I felt uncomfortable. I was a little unhappy and wanted to be alone for a while, so...but I definitely didn't want to run around!"

Nan Yi waved his hands anxiously, afraid that Nanzhi would not believe him.

Nanzhi smiled with relief:

"I know. But thank you for your honesty anyway, Mom."

She raised her hand and pinched Nan Yi's nose.

Nan Yi felt a little embarrassed and confused.

So mom knew?

"Then why don't you ask me..."

"Because I know Yi Yi won't lie to me."

Nan Yi stiffened slightly.

No, I would lie to you, let alone be an honest child.

Suppressing the awkwardness, Nan Yi blinked quickly and forced a bright smile on his face:

"Well, of course!"

Maybe his acting skills are not good enough;
Perhaps it is the tacit understanding between mother and son;

Or maybe Nanzhi is always particularly sensitive to Nanyi's emotions.

Nanzhi suddenly held Nanyi's hands and said solemnly:
"Yiyi, you have to know that mom doesn't want some things to become a burden to you. You don't need to tell me everything. I believe you. If you don't want to say it, you must have your reasons."

Nan Yi's eyes felt sore.

He always felt that his mother seemed to see through him, yet was infinitely tolerant of him.

My heart feels like it's being soaked in sour water and honey water, sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes happy, with my emotions constantly pulling me apart.

Nan Yi tried desperately to hold back her tears, but failed.

Tears welled up in Nan Yi's eyes and he raised his hand awkwardly to wipe them away.

In the end, I simply covered my face with my hands.

A muffled voice came from between the fingers:
"I, I know."

Nanzhi patted his shoulder silently.

My thoughts wander uncontrollably.

I couldn't help but think that perhaps one of the reasons why she was so perceptive was that Nan Yi's behavior was very similar to that of the same person.

——It looks a lot like Lu Shixu.

...The conversation between mother and son in the corner was not discovered by anyone.

This is their own conversation time.
