Chapter 32
Two Dogs
The call lasted for only half a minute. Tan Ming could only accept the failure of the mission when she saw the call end.
“The cheapest handicrafts on the Extravagant Purchase Network are all above six digits! This brother actually rejected it directly without being tempted at all. Do you think he discovered the scam, or is he just too rich?”
“I think he’s too rich. If he really was suspicious, he’ll definitely ask more. He only said three sentences just now!”
Soon, the anti-scam slogan “If I’m not greedy, no one else can be greedy for my money” spread all over the Internet.
Director Han watched as the topic of the show occupied the top spot on the first day of the broadcast. In a good mood, he let everyone continue eating.
Everyone began to chat and eat. At this time, it was mostly celebrities who were chatting to each other. After all, everyone was more interested in their idols. The three ordinary guests were just standing at the side to make up the scene.
Soon, it was nine o’clock. All the guests waved goodbye to the audience and invited everyone to watch it at seven o’clock tomorrow morning.
The first day ended perfectly. After seeing that the camera had stopped rolling, everyone began their own activities. The production team had prepared their own generators, but there were too many places that needed electricity, so most of the places were dark.
Tan Ming held a flashlight and jogged to the logistics department. Everyone who participated in the show knew that Jiang Huai’s little fan was a mother to babies, so they did not pay much attention to her actions.
Upon seeing this, Wang Li pulled Tan Si away from everyone’s line of sight and quietly followed behind.
When Tan Ming returned to Li Mei’s tent, the two babies were already asleep. When Li Mei saw her daughter return, she immediately took a fan and fanned her. “You must be tired. I made some plum blossom soup. Auntie Wang, go get a bowl.”
Aunt Wang, who was carrying Jiang Yi, was about to gently place the child on the bed when she heard the order. Tan Ming hurriedly said, “Aunt Wang, carry him. I’ll do it myself. Mom, I can do such a small thing myself. Fan yourself and don’t worry about me. Sit down. I’ll get you a bowl too.”
Li Mei stopped Tan Ming and said with heartache, “You’ve been tired all day. Don’t run around. I’ve been sitting all day. I can take a walk.”
Li Mei forced Tan Ming onto the chair and went out to fill the cup.
As soon as Li Mei left, Wang Li and her daughter appeared.
When Tan Si saw that there were two confinement maids around, she forced a smile on her expressionless face. “Tan Ming, come out for a while.”
Tan Ming was holding a milking machine with her back facing the door. She replied in a flat voice, “I’m not free now.”
Tan Si endured it and took a few steps forward. She said softly, “My mission is for you to praise me for being beautiful. Find a chance to say it in front of the camera tomorrow morning.”
Tan Ming sneered. “Are you mother and daughter so open when you ask others to cheat?”
When Wang Li saw that Tan Ming had no respect for them at all, she gritted her teeth hatefully. She was so agitated that she no longer had any scruples when she spoke.
“Tan Ming, you and Si Cheng are divorced. These two children will still be living in the Si family. I advise you to have a better attitude. Si Si will be the mistress of the Si family after she marries. She will have the final say in what the two children eat!”
Tan Ming sneered and said, “Whoever dares to snatch my child, I’ll fight to the death with her! I’m just a barefooted commoner. I’m not as popular as a new celebrity like Tan Si. I think everyone will be very interested in her destroying other people’s families. I still have some evidence of her seducing her brother-in-law. My only worry is finding a more influential news platform to report it on.”
When Tan Si heard this, she was so angry that she pointed at Tan Ming and scolded, “Vicious woman! Don’t think that I can’t do anything to you. Even if I don’t work in the entertainment industry, I won’t have to worry about food and clothing. You’re different. The children are in the Si family. I can do whatever I want. Just watch how I treat them. You don’t have money or power, yet you still dare to go against me!”
“Ah!”
Two ear-piercing screams sounded, scaring Tan Ming so much that she quickly tidied herself up and turned around.
The two of them were dripping with plum blossom soup from head to toe. Li Mei walked to Wang Li with two empty cups and said sarcastically, “I was wondering why I could hear dogs barking from afar. It turns out that two mad dogs have come. No wonder it’s been so loud.”
Last time, Wang Li had not been able to gain any favor from Li Mei. She also knew that the other party was a martial arts practitioner, so she did not rush forward rashly. She only hated herself for not finding two bodyguards to protect her on the island.
