Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show

Chapter 7,Part 4: Livestreaming - No harm without comparison

Bai Yulin’s father-and-daughter team was the one with the most publicity in the early stage of promotions and was currently the most popular of the five teams. The livestream has just started, and the number of viewers in their livestream channel surged to 250,000 in one fell swoop.

The other three teams were slightly less popular, but there were still tens of thousands of viewers for each of their livestream channels.

.

But for Lin Cheng’s team, there were less than 500 people online in the livestream channel, and the comment section was deserted.

It wasn’t until Lin Cheng handed over the 200 yuan living expenses directly to Lin Momo that a few interactive comments finally popped up in the livestream channel.

[Did the father give all the money directly to the daughter? Isn’t he afraid of the child losing it?]

[The living expenses of this team seem to be only 200 yuan, I’m worried, what if they lose even that?]

[What is this dad thinking, actually giving the envelope to the child to play with! Didn’t he know there was money in it?]

[Maybe because he was a big star before, he didn’t take the 200 yuan seriously.]

[I think the other groups are different. Zheng Chengye is obviously a big president in real life but after getting the 2,000 yuan from the program group, he still couldn’t wait to stuff it directly inside the insole of his shoes!]

[Haha, Duan Bei is also afraid of losing their money, so he hid it separately in more than a dozen different places.]

[Really? I’ll go take a look.]

[I’m going too!]

So, Chen Yu just watched the number of people online in Lin Cheng’s live broadcast room dwindle from 433 to 402.

… …

The Lin ‘father and daughter’ team had no awareness at all of what transpired in the interactive comments of their livestream channel.

After successfully navigating through the narrow corridors and stairs, the two finally arrived at the third floor.

Along the small hallway, there were five or six tightly arranged doors.

Lin Cheng glanced over the several doors one by one; they all looked the same to him. Before he could find the location of their house number, Lin Momo had already pointed to one of the doors before them and proclaimed in a loud voice, “It’s there!”

So sure?

Lin Cheng looked the door over—it didn’t have a number on it—and then back at Lin Momo, thinking his doubts silently to himself.

As if hearing Lin Cheng’s inner monologue, Lin Momo ran to the door, pointed to a sticker on the door, and said to Lin Cheng, “Look, this was posted when the neighborhood committee inspected the safety of the residents. The number here is the number of residents in the household.

“And this,” Lin Momo pointed to the ‘3-3’ among a series of symbols written in chalk on the wall next to the door, and said to Lin Cheng. “This 3, it’s also about the house number of the household.

“But this isn’t good; this can’t be kept.” While speaking, Lin Momo had already squatted down and rubbed off the string of symbols on the wall with her hands.

While wiping, she explained to Lin Cheng seriously, “This triangle means that there is a child in the family, two squares means that there are two adults, and a circle with a cross means that there is no one in the house during the day. It means that there is no one from 8:00 in the morning to 7:00 in the evening…”

It was not until the string of symbols were completely wiped off that Lin Momo stood up, smiled at Lin Cheng, and said, “Okay.”

Hiding the genuine surprise in his heart, Lin Cheng looked down at Lin Momo’s hands, now dirty from when she wiped the marks on the wall just now, and only said, “Go in and wash your hands in a while.”

Lin Momo: “Okay…”

She almost forgot! This ‘Daddy’ is a clean freak. Could it be that she was rejected by the other party?

Lin Momo’s thoughts were running wild.

Lin Cheng—unaware of Lin Momo’s turbulent thoughts—had her stand aside, then he took out the house key and opened the door.

The moment the door was pushed open, a damp, musty smell assaulted their noses.

Lin Cheng frowned and looked around the inside of the room.

The house was not big at all. They father and daughter stood amidst a narrow entranceway where all manner of items were randomly piled up. The rest of the so-called ‘one bedroom, one living room’ residence arranged for them by the program group was nothing more than a single room with a few cabinets dividing the original room into a living room on one hand and a bedroom on the other.

There was only one window in the whole room; the whole place looked old and dark.

Except for the camera equipment previously installed by the program group, all other items in the house seemed to have been kept in their original state as they were left by the previous tenants, without any kind of clean-up or sorting. Other than a few electrical appliances of unknown reliability and some dilapidated furniture, the rest of the items are piled up randomly all over, occupying more than half of the available space.

Lin Cheng: “…”

Seeing Lin Cheng frowning, Lin Momo subconsciously wanted to comfort him.

“Although it’s a bit of a mess, the house is actually pretty good. At least it can shelter us from the wind and rain.”

Just as Lin Momo finished speaking, there was a ‘CLANG!’— the wooden window frame, originally closed shut due to disrepair, half-fell off the wall.
