Finally, all four dishes were finished. Everyone loved it.

This boosted Lin Wan’s confidence, and she decided to start cooking every day from now on.

In the sixth live episode, the program crew spared no expense to invite the Bai family, including the Grand Slam champions Jin Niu and Jin Xiang, to be the guests.

Bai Xue’s parents were artists. Her husband was a singer named Qi Ming. He was not as famous as Bai Xue, and her in-laws were wealthy people in the industry. Their daughter, Qi Yue, was fourteen years old and an exceptional athlete. She participated in numerous tournaments each year and racked up awards to the point of exhaustion.

Starting from the second episode, the program crew sent directors, planners, and writers to invite them, but they were rejected three times. For the final episode, everyone made an appearance and camped out for a few days. Bai Xue finally agreed after that.

Though a pre-release teaser would’ve certainly caused a sensational reaction, the program crew decided to keep the mysterious guest’s identity a secret until the old guests were on-site. Then, the Bai family would be invited into Lan Village.

The program crew even made a cartoon video with the tagline: “Mysterious

Family Steals the Show: Unveiling at 11 a.m. on the 10th.”

The top comment from the director read: “If I’m not famous after this, you can kill me.”

Once the video was released, everyone expressed their thoughts and began speculating about who might be appearing.

Someone even brought up the Guoguo family from one of the earlier episodes.

The frequent guests received a notification about the mystery guest, but even they were kept in the dark by the program crew.

Li Zexuan wasn’t interested. He was too lazy to even guess.

Li Zexin was exactly the opposite. He was brimming with curiosity and listed all the top female stars around the same age as Li Zexuan. Never before had he felt that anyone could surpass Li Zexuan’s level of popularity. When he showed the list to Li Zexuan, he ignored it.

“Big brother, aren’t you curious at all?”

“Curious about what? They’re all just people like us. How do you even know it’s a female star?”

“It’s about balance. There are so many boys here, so the final episode is bound to feature girls.” Li Zexin was very confident. “Not only do I think it’s a female star. I also think it might very likely be Wan Rong. The final episode is going to hype you two up.”

“You’re overthinking it. Do you really believe the program crew has no limits? I’m still young. How could they hype me up like that?” Li Zexuan asked.

“Let’s make a bet of five hundred bucks.”

“Do you even have five hundred bucks?”

Li Zexin’s smile froze. “Who are you looking down on? I just received New

Year’s money.”

Li Zexin suddenly realized that he had used it to pay off the debt he had incurred for buying New Year’s clothes. He was broke once again.

“Forget it. Let’s not bet on money. Instead, let’s make it more exciting. The loser has to scratch his nose in public.”

“Fine. Write it down. The loser has to scratch his nose on camera during the livestream!” Li Zexuan raised the stakes.

The day after returning to Yun City, Li Zexin used the excuse of visiting Xiao Yi to secretly pick up the clothes he had ordered. The outfits for the entire family were ready. Each piece was wrapped in dustproof bags.

Through the bags, you could see the styles of the clothes. Li Zexin was quite satisfied.

Xiao Yi helped Li Zexin deliver the clothes to Royal Water Bay. Li Yanchen looked puzzled when he saw Li Zexin with two huge bags.

“Li Zexin, what’s all this?”

Li Zexin hurriedly hid the bags behind his back.

Lin Wan, who was reading a book, noticed that Xiao Yi looked perplexed. They were going to Lan Village in two days, so why did Xiao Yi come to their house?

Xiao Yi greeted everyone. Then, he handed the bags to Li Zexin.

“Big brother, Jiejie, come here quickly!” Li Zexin yelled.

He wanted to open the bags in front of everyone and have them wear the clothes on the day they would go to the village.

The two brothers lazily walked out to the living room when they heard their brother calling for them.

Li Zexuan tapped one of the bags. “Little brother, did you buy us all gifts? It’s… soft. Are they soft toys? I’m a grown man, Li Zexin. I don’t like playing with toys.”

“I like them.” Lin Wan was worried that Li Zexin had indeed gotten them some soft toys, and his feelings might be hurt. She didn’t want to reject his nice gesture.

Li Zexin shook his head. “Ms. Lin, you like soft toys? I will buy you one next time. These aren’t toys, though. I think all of you will love it.”

“Close your eyes. Big brother, hold the bags. I’ll reveal the gifts one by one,” said Li Zexin eagerly.

Everyone obediently closed their eyes.

With five pieces of clothing in hand, Li Zexin announced, “You can open your eyes now.”

“Clothes?” Li Zexuan never expected that his younger brother would buy clothes for everyone as gifts.

It was clearly a set for the entire family.

“This is for Ms. Lin. This is for Mr. Li. Here, this is for you, Brother Xuanxuan. This is for you, Jiejie. Let’s all try them on,” said Li Zexin as he handed them their gifts one by one. “They’re all custom-made. Ms. Lin, you said that Aunt Xia’s New Year’s clothes were nice last time. It’s from the same store. I just ordered them a little late, so it took some time to be delivered.” Li Zexin lowered his head in embarrassment.

Li Zekai hugged his older brother. “Big brother, you actually thought of buying us similar clothes! You’re so kind. I’ll definitely love you more from now on and won’t compete with you for strawberries.”

Li Zexin smiled. “Everyone is a witness here. When we buy the strawberries, I get the top ones.

“Okay! I’ll even let you choose first. I’m going to try on the clothes.”

After everyone went inside, Li Zexin gave Auntie Huang and Auntie Bao each a silk scarf, which he had bought for them while picking up the clothes.

“You bought gifts for us too?!” Both of them exclaimed.

“Yeah.” Li Zexin nodded. “I’m going to go and get changed now.”

When all five people were back in the courtyard, Xiao Yi’s eyes widened in surprise.

“So beautiful!” Auntie Huang stared at Lin Wan. “The red color complements

Wanwan’s skin so well.”

“That’s right! Aren’t they all dressed up like big celebrities?” said Auntie Bao. “I’ll take some pictures.” Xiao Yi thought it would be a shame not to capture such a scene.

The Li family’s courtyard became the backdrop as the five of them changed their outfits and took several photos.

Li Zexin restrained himself from jumping for joy and saved the photos in his album. He would let everyone see them on the day of the livestream.

After the photo shoot, Xiao Yi returned home. Everyone changed back to their comfortable clothes to not damage the new clothes.

Two days later, the crew arrived early at Lan Village. The village was even colder than it had been at the end of the previous year.

The permanent guests included the Wheatley family, Li family, Xiao Yi’s family, Tutu’s family, and Feifei’s family. There was one extra guest this time: Bai Xue’s family.

Bai Xue’s family was placed next to the Li family. After the Spring Festival, the radio station had arranged for people to clean up the yard.

When interviewing the members of Bai Xue’s family, the crew noticed that they were most interested in the Li family.

This was Qi Yue’s first time participating in a livestream, but she had experienced time away from her family. She knew how to pack her own luggage. She only brought essentials. Qi Yue wore dark-colored sportswear

most of the time..
