“Cake?” Li Zexin blinked in surprise.

“Yeah, didn’t you see in the comments? Teacher Bai Xue apparently just grabbed the cake and ate it because she couldn’t resist. It must be a new type.

I’m going to be the first one to try it.”

“Let’s go.” Li Zexin got up. “Mr. Li, Uncle Su, you guys continue the livestream.

Big brother, let’s go eat cake together.”

[Who told them to go and grab the cake? They didn’t even stay in front of the camera for two minutes.]

[The camera at Xiao Yi’s house has been moved to the yard. You can see them there anyway.]

[Now Bai Xue and Xia Xia are sitting together in the yard. They are drinking tea and eating cake. It’s so lively.]

[Bai Xue has forgotten all about her image in front of the camera. She looks good even while eating melon seeds.]

[Sister Wan and Teacher Xia are also very charming. They can always make others feel welcome.]

[Bai Xue has completely let loose. Or you could say that might be her in her daily life. Maybe she feels pressured to be elegant and charming in front of the camera.]

Bai Xue had the cake on her left and melon seeds in front. There was a glass of water on her right.

[Bai Xue, I didn’t expect you to be so easygoing.]

After livestreaming together, Xia MO felt much more at ease when talking to Bai Xue.

“When I’m not working, I’m just an ordinary person.” Bai Xue smiled. “I envy your lifestyle… being able to do whatever you want.”

Xia MO widened her eyes in disbelief. “Envy us? Do you know how many people have you as their dream girl? In our generation, both boys and girls called you a goddess. I used to naively think for a while that you must be a fairy who had descended to the earth.”

[Xia MO also sees someone she admires just the way I do. When I was young, I used to think that beautiful girls were fairies from the sky.]

[Celebrities are people too, just like Xuanxuan. I like him the way he is now. He can be himself without any constraints.]

[Not all fans are like us. Some fans only like their idols to uphold a certain image. If the idols act naturally, they say their image is ruined.]

[The so-called idol image is mostly created by the fans.]

[Anyway, I like idols who are down-to-earth. It makes me feel closer to them.]

Lin Wan smiled. “I’ve always believed that the most precious thing in this world is to be yourself, but it’s also the most difficult thing to do, too. Being yourself will invite doubts from others. You need to shut your ears and ignore those doubts.”

“I’ve watched your previous livestreams. You’re the guest I admire the most. To be so young and live as your authentic self is rare.” Bai Xue asked herself if she had the same courage as Lin Wan when she was young. When she first started out, she had done things she didn’t like in order to maintain the image the company set up for her.

“It turns out you also admire Wanwan’s personality, Teacher Bai.” Xia MO seemed to have found a common interest with her idol. “I really admire Wanwan too.”

[We do too. Sister Wan is cool and composed.]

[Sister Wan is strong.]

[Sister Wan is very stubborn.]

[Are you guys sure you’re praising Wanwan? Why does it sound like you’re calling her difficult?]

[It’s definitely a praise.]

Bai Xue and Xia MO discussed whether it was important to create a public image. In the end, they both felt that people should follow their own hearts. It was too exhausting to live for others.

Lin Wan even gave examples from her family. Everyone in the Li family had shed their public image. Everyone was living as themselves. What was so wrong with that?

[Wanwan, are you trying to be a philosopher? Your words are so philosophical.]

[I think Xuanxuan and the others haven’t ruined their images. They were always like that. Childish and funny.]

[Agreed. Hahaha…]

Li Zexuan sneezed loudly.

In the Li family’s livestream room, a few fans rushed in.

[Xuanxuan, in Xiao Yi’s livestream room, fans are saying that you’re quite childish and that your cool and composed image is fake.] [Xuanxuan, they also say you’re an immature top star.]

[Are you trying to do this intentionally? I just commented in Xiao Yi’s livestream room. People didn’t say anything like that. What they were saying was that Xuanxuan is down-to-earth and not pretentious at all.]

“Really?” Li Zexuan pointed at his own face. “You guys clearly didn’t see my scheming side.”

[Hahaha… Sure, Xuanxuan, you are very cunning.]

[Such pretense.]

[You sound like when kids in second grade try to pretend to be adults while trying on their mother’s heels.] [@Previous Poster, your analogy gave me a vivid image.]

Li Zexuan was speechless.

Was he being childish? How was that possible?

He was the cool, handsome, and taciturn celebrity!

‘Ah… silence. Silence represents coolness.’

He narrowed his eyes and pretended to be cold and aloof. He glanced at the comments but didn’t respond further.

Li Zexin stood behind his big brother. “I admit that I’m childish and innocent.

Big brother isn’t. He’s the lofty young master of the Li family.”

Li Zexuan nudged his brother playfully. “What nonsense are you talking about?

Weren’t you going with Xiao Yi to get cake? Why are you back?”

“Halfway there, I saw Jiejie and the others, so I let them go. I’m their elder brother. Of course, I should be considerate of my little brother.”

Li Zexuan looked suspiciously at his younger brother. Why was he so unreliable?

“Why are you staring at me? Is this the first day you’ve known me? Okay, I’ll tell you the truth. The Wind God went to get the cake, so he asked me to come back and get the ball. We’ll meet at the field later.”

[Are you going to play basketball? Xinxin, please take the camera when you go.]

[Yes, carry it over. Mr. Li looks tired. Let him rest. Take the camera with you.]

“Uncle Su, do you and Mr. Li want to join us?” Li Zexuan asked.

Li Yanchen stretched lazily. “You guys go. I’m preparing dinner.”

“I’ll help Mr. Li.” Su Wei was someone who couldn’t even run properly, so playing basketball was out of the question. He might as well help with preparing dinner.

“Alright, we’ll leave the livestream room to you.” Li Zexin went inside to grab the basketball, then headed to the court with his older brother. [You didn’t take the camera! Alright, I’m heading to Bai Xue’s livestream.]

[I’m leaving too. Let Mr. Li prepare dinner in peace.]

At Xiao Yi’s place, Li Zekai, Tutu, and Feifei walked into the yard. Their eyes were fixed on the cake.

They hadn’t eaten well at noon in their eagerness to play. After doing tasks in the afternoon, they were already hungry.

Halfway there, they ran into Li Zexin. They asked him if he had any snacks. Li Zexin told them that Xia MO had made a cake. So, the three children rush over to Xiao Yi’s house.

Feifei stood at the front and didn’t say a word.

Tutu stood behind and nudged Li Zekai. Li Zekai took a deep breath. “Auntie Lin, is there any cake left?”

“Do you want some?” Lin Wan asked.

All three of them nodded. “Yes, please.”

“Thank you,” said the three kids as they each held a plate with a slice of cake. They started eating right away.

Tutu liked sweet things, and this cake was slightly bitter for his taste. But he was really nungry, so ne still ace greeany.

Li Zekai recognized the flavor. It was dark chocolate. His favorite!

Feifei wasn’t picky, especially when he saw his friends enjoying the cake so much. He lowered his head and opened his small mouth. Before long, his lips were smeared with dark chocolate. When he raised his head again, he looked funny..
