The Female Celebrity Transmigrated into the Daughter of Her Arch Nemesis-Chapter 166: What’s the point of death
Chapter 166
This photo had just surfaced, instantly triggering a frenzy among the Ji Ruochu fans.
It must be said that these fans of the mother basically entered the fandom through that old parent-child reality show, so the fans who were already biased towards their darling naturally had no resistance to Ji Ruochu's childhood photos.
Ji Mochen had just finished replying to a message when he released a video of his young daughter from her childhood, with the caption:
[Not surprising for my daughter, she has never been easy to fool since she was little.]
The top comments: 𝘧𝘳ℯ𝓮𝘸𝓮𝑏𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝘮
[Ah ah ah! What auspicious day is this? Having photos is already amazing enough, but we also get a rare video from the archives? King Ji, just for this post, I have to like, save, and do the triple engagement combo first!]
At the beginning of the video, it was a bright and tidy indoor scene.
Then, a comment floated by from a helpful netizen:
[This is the Ji family villa, I just rewatched that old reality show yesterday, the living room is exactly the same as this!]
Without mentioning it, it was fine, but once this was brought up, the attention of the netizens began to shift, and most of the comments were about appraising the value of the antiques and calligraphy displayed in the living room.
Until—
[Huh? Wasn't this supposed to be a video related to our dear Ji Ruochu?]
[...]
[Ah, I see her! On the mattress in front of the floor-to-ceiling window!]
The crowd immediately shifted their gaze towards the window.
In the video, a little one no more than two and a half years old was lying obediently on her mattress, which was a milky white color. The little one was wearing a beige home outfit, so it was easy to miss her at first glance.
After a moment, the camera zoomed in, allowing everyone to finally see the tiny figure on the mattress.
The little one had a fluffy blanket covering her tummy, as if she had just woken up, with a few strands of adorable bedhead sticking up. Her beautiful fox-like eyes, though slightly dazed, stared unblinkingly out the window, seemingly entranced by something, utterly focused.
In just a second, the comments were flooded with obsessed fans cooing over the baby, along with a few comments that caught everyone's attention.
[What's going on? Why does the baby look so listless? Is she bored?]
[Is she sick? My daughter used to look like this when she was ill, all lethargic and pitiful.]
As they were wondering, a dog-like figure came trotting into the frame—undoubtedly King Ji himself.
Netizens quipped: What's he doing? Why is he being so sneaky in his own home? I thought there was a burglar in the Ji residence or something.
"Is it ready?" A woman's voice rang out.
"Yes, don't worry, I've watched the videos, many families do this, and the child doesn't suspect a thing."
"That's good..."
After their furtive exchange, Ji Mochen cleared his throat and gently called out to his daughter: "Ruochu, daddy bought a watermelon, do you want some?"
As he finished speaking, the cameraman gave a close-up of a bright red watermelon.
But you thought it was just a regular watermelon? How naive.
When the top layer of the watermelon was lifted, inside was a hollowed-out melon with a transparent bottle cap filled with dissolved medicine.
Netizens: ...
The next second, the camera turned towards the listless baby on the mattress.
Perhaps to avoid being discovered, the cameraman only filmed for a second before turning the camera away, redirecting it back to the floor-to-ceiling window.
The little one, who had been spacing out, seemed slightly curious upon hearing the voice. She slowly turned halfway over, using her tiny hands to prop herself up on the mattress. She looked lazily towards the watermelon in front of the camera, and then...
*thud* She flopped back down onto the mattress.
The couple: ...
Netizens: Hahahahaha!
At this moment, the screen was filled with netizens' hearty laughter.
"Sweetheart, it's watermelon, a very sweet and delicious watermelon. Daddy has put in a straw for you, you can just drink it directly."
The old father seemed accustomed to his daughter's defiance and carefully picked up the watermelon before walking towards her.
The camera followed, and the netizens watched as the melon contained a bottle cap full of medicine, typing away while laughing, speculating whether the medicine would spill on the way.
"Here, take a sip, it's so delicious and sweet!"
Fortunately, the old father was quite reliable at times, steadily bringing the half watermelon filled with medicine to his daughter's face, even holding the straw to her mouth.
The little one looked at the bright red watermelon, then at her expectant father. For some reason, the audience seemed to see a hint of resignation in the two-year-old's eyes.
Her expression seemed to say: Who drinks watermelon without squeezing it first?
Of course, this was just the audience's speculation, because in the video, the two-year-old, after glancing at the camera, obediently lowered her head.
Then, she slowly opened her little mouth and listlessly sucked on the straw—
At that moment, not only Ji Mochen in the video, but all the netizens held their breath.
[Ah, this... Based on King Ji's post, it seems the trick failed, huh?]
[Ji Ruochu won't cry, will she?]
[Poor baby, she already looks so listless, and now her parents are tricking her into drinking medicine under the guise of watermelon juice.]
...
As the netizens were expressing sympathy for their darling, the little one in the video, having taken a small sip, had already sat up straight. She looked down at the watermelon with the straw, then reached out to hold it herself.
"Sweetheart, this watermelon is heavy, let daddy hold it for you!" Ji Mochen quickly stopped her—
The baby: *stares intently*
Ji Mochen: ...
Father and daughter stared at each other for three seconds.
The little one didn't say a word, she just held the watermelon in her small chubby arms, her watery eyes fixed on her father.
Three seconds later.
Having successfully hugged the small half watermelon, the little one lazily leaned back on the raised mattress.
The defeated father, unwilling to intervene, could only watch helplessly and say sheepishly: "Then Ji Ruochu can drink the watermelon juice herself, daddy won't touch it."
Little did he expect that as soon as he said this, the baby had already lifted the top layer of the watermelon.
The next second, the small bottle cap inside the hollow watermelon was revealed.
Ji Mochen: Σ(⊙▽⊙"a!
Comments: Ah, she's found out.
In the meantime, the little one even glanced at her stunned father, her eyes carrying a hint of emotion.
Savage netizens: Although she didn't say a word, her eyes were full of disdain.
You thought it would end there?
Of course not.
Originally thinking this attempt at giving medicine would be foiled midway, unexpectedly, the little one, after glancing at her father, calmly took out the bottle cap from the hollow watermelon, and then... gulped it down in one go.
Ji Mochen: (ΩДΩ)!!
Netizens: ...
You have to give it to the kid, she was quite polite about it.
After drinking the medicine, she first put the bottle cap back, replaced the watermelon lid, and even reinserted the straw, before handing it back to her still-stunned father: "Here~"
Only after Ji Mochen had absentmindedly taken it did she turn over and flatten the raised part of the mattress, then... flopped back down again.
By this time, the comments were filled with netizens' unrestrained "hahaha" laughter.
[Ji Ruochu: If it's medicine, just say it's medicine, what's with all the fuss?]
[Just wondering... What medicine was that? Which brand? I need to stock up on that brand's basic medicines for my rebellious son, so we don't have to go through the end of the world every time he has to take medicine.]
