The Female Celebrity Transmigrated into the Daughter of Her Arch Nemesis

Chapter 66

"Did you just say your sister Tingting wants to go out to work?" It was not until Father and daughter caught up with the main group that Ji Mochen, who was exasperated by his daughter, regained some sanity.

"!!" Ji Ruochu seemed to have just realized that she had let something slip, and immediately covered her little mouth. Her bright, lively big eyes blinked, and she said hoarsely, "I don't know!"

"Ruo Ruo." Ji Mochen had originally decided not to get involved in this matter. It was just that his daughter seemed to like the girl named Tingting very much, so he decided to get to the bottom of it.

"You just knew to advise Tingting not to go out to work, saying that child labor is illegal. How can you still want to aid and abet now?"

"..." Upon hearing this, the little one immediately looked somewhat guilty and lowered her head, as if trying to fool her way through.

Ji Mochen's expression was very firm. He even stopped walking, but did not force his daughter. He just stood there silently holding her, as if waiting for the little one to think it through by herself.

After a long pause, Ji Ruochu sighed, and hugged the milk bottle to drink a few sips to calm herself down. It looked like she was getting ready to speak.

Ji Mochen raised his eyebrows. After thinking about it, he turned off his and his daughter's microphones. At the same time, he signaled the cameraman to move the camera away before holding his daughter and walking to a tree by the roadside.

"Okay, you can secretly tell Dad. We'll have someone check whether that company is formal or not. Otherwise, if that company is fake, Tingting might be tricked into being sold."

"That won't happen." The little one didn't seem to realize that she was being tricked at all. She immediately retorted, "Sister Tingting said that the boss is someone from their village, and they are going together in a group. There is a grandpa who will help her... That grandpa even gave her biscuits to eat!"

The little one spoke incoherently, but faithfully reproduced what Tingting had said before.

About how stingy Tingting's grandma was, not even giving Tingting biscuits to eat.

And how pitiful Tingting was, actually wanting to go out to earn money to buy things for her brother.

Finally, she threw down the gauntlet: "If I were Sister Tingting, after earning money I would never come back to see her again."

Ji Mochen was instantly speechless. He subconsciously recalled that in the past, he shouldn't have done anything to seriously offend the little one... Right?

If he couldn't help others in the end, and his own daughter ran away in anger, he really wouldn't have anywhere to cry.

"Dad, are you listening to me?" Ji Ruochu was very dissatisfied.

"I'm listening, I'm listening." The father immediately regained his senses, and then thoughtfully said, "So it's Grandpa Li from the village who is helping everyone go out to find work?"

"Yes." The little one nodded. "Sister Tingting also said that everyone who went out to work could earn big money. When they came back, they were all fat with round tummies from eating well."

"Okay, Daddy knows. Let's record the show first, and then Daddy will get someone to check it out afterwards."

"No!" But Ji Ruochu was anxious. "Sister Tingting said she was going to sneak into their car and secretly follow them later. She didn't even tell her dad and mom!"

Leaving later?

Ji Mochen stopped in his tracks. He looked at the cameraman who was asking if he could turn the live camera back at them, and gently shook his head. Then he started thinking about what the little one had said.

Why is it today?

Is it a coincidence?

Or is it deliberately chosen when the show recording ends?

If deliberate, then what's the reason?

As one of the investors of this show, he knew very clearly that after the show ended, tourists would inevitably come to check-in. After all, apart from the show crew's popularity, the scenery here in Jincun Village was indeed good, with fresh air. He had heard that some investors had already started negotiating with the village for vacation home projects.

That is to say, as soon as his group of celebrity guests leave tomorrow, the village may start construction at any time. As long as the village develops its tourism industry, not to mention going out to work, those already working outside would scramble to come back.

So the question is, since the village has ways to make money, why leave hastily at this critical juncture?

Also, according to his daughter, not only Tingting, but the other children leaving were doing so secretly without telling the adults.

Why?

Were they all neglected by their families like Tingting?

Or...

A chilling guess suddenly came to Ji Mochen's mind.

He couldn't care less about anything else at the moment. Carrying his daughter, he immediately walked towards the director team on the side.

Poor cameraman who was tasked to follow them could only bite the bullet and continue showing the audience the roadside flowers and plants, earning complaints and warnings flooding the screen.

Fortunately, minutes later, the executive director announced the temporary suspension of the livestream.

Hearing the news, other celebrity guests were also completely confused as they turned back.

After taking off their equipment, they finally heard the show producer say that there was a problem with the crew's receiver and staff were repairing it. Therefore, the original treasure hunt session was suspended for the time being.

"Teachers, thanks for your hard work. Please take the kids back to rest first. Once the signal is fixed we'll continue. Since it can be restored anytime, please don't wander too far away, just stay in this area." The staff member said apologetically.

The other four families agreed to cooperate, although they felt this was sudden.

Only a few kids were instantly disappointed that they couldn't go treasure hunting.

"Huh? Where's Ruo Ruo sister?"

After the loss, the children suddenly realized a little companion was missing.

Seeing this, the nanny fathers were also shocked in their hearts. Could it be...

"Ruo Ruo seems to be tired. King Ji took her back to rest." Quickly explaining, "Daddy can also take the kids back to rest first. Otherwise there will be no energy left for the treasure hunt later."

"Alright..."

Not only could they not look for treasure, but they couldn't see their favorite Ruo Ruo sister either, the little ones drooped even more.

After the four nannies took their children back, the producer finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Bro, what exactly happened?" Asked the cameraman responsible for following them. "Our receiver didn't—"

"Tsk." The producer's face changed. "Why so talkative? What the director said is what it is. Isn't it good to give you paid time off?" As he said this, several people around laughed.

"Alright, things that shouldn't be talked about, don't talk about them. Don't run around when you see the crew members." Looking at the time, the producer said solemnly.

Hearing this, they naturally did not dare to ridicule anymore, and secretly guessed while slacking off.

Just what on earth happened that made the director call for a suspension at such a hot spot in the livestream?

What they didn't know was that at that moment, Ji Mochen was communicating solemnly with the person on the phone.

"Yes, I suspect it's... but I can't confirm yet."

...

"It's too remote here. By the time they've gone up the mountain, they probably would have startled the snake."

...

"I feel very uneasy about this. I also don't dare to leave immediately for fear that they will notice something."

...

"Alright, waiting for your news."
