“It tastes so good.”
“Waahh I thought we were about to miss out on this…”
“I suddenly… miss my mom…”
“…”
On the subject of moms, the atmosphere at the dining table turned down and felt even a little melancholic.
Li Jianyu was confused. “I…You…I…Daddy Shi, how do you comfort them?”
As a middle-aged man, he was okay at coaxing little girls, but he had no experience with young boys.
Shi Sui handed them each a bowl of rice noodles with fish soup without a word.
This terrified the children. One by one, they stood up to receive it with both hands, almost bowing down 90 degrees to Shi Sui on the spot.
Once they had the rice noodles, they did not touch the shrimp dumplings anymore. Quietly, they sucked up their noodles silently and took a sip of warm and fresh fish soup. They looked so obedient it almost made one distressed.
The kind of children who didn’t dare ask for extras even when eating at a relative’s house.
Li Jianyu looked a little sad. They all say children who know how to cry can get candy, but these honest children… must have endured so much.
“Ah. Don’t be so polite, eat more, we’ll take care of it! Yi mei has made a lot of dumplings.” Li Jianyu persuaded.
The members of Sea7 responded, but they were still buried in their soup.
Shi Sui’s warm voice rang out. “Today, we will be filming some farm work. It will consume a lot of calories, so it’s alright to eat a bit more.”
A sneer suddenly sounded.
On the other side, Xiang Qi slammed down his chopsticks and ruthlessly said like a mob boss: “Eat! You all better eat! Nobody leaves until it’s finished!”
Everyone present: …!!
Jiang Chen shuddered as he subconsciously shrank behind Li Jianyu, who was closest to him.
Li Jianyu, who was easily frightened, almost dropped his bowl, coughing. “Ha… Uncle Hai Dai Si*, the kids are still young, don’t scare them too much.”
“What did you call me?”
Li Jianyu anxiously responded. “I, I, I… My big mouth! My English is fake! I’m sorry, Hai Dai Si… no, Uncle Hades!”
Xiang Qi was furious. He was so western, tall, and noble, with such a compelling name, but this guy had called him seaweed?!
Seeing that the man was about to explode, Shi Sui spoke out to calm him. “Xiang Yi is still sleeping.”
The words were as sharp as knives as Xiang Qi instantly shut up.
He inhaled and exhaled, repeated it several times, then calmed down. Gritting his teeth, “Do you know how many models have starved themselves to death in order to pursue a size-0 figure? Do you know how many people have developed an eating disorder? Besides, if you’re all eating so little, will you have the strength to work later?!”
The boys were petrified.
Xiang Qi directly pushed a basket of shrimp dumplings over and viciously exclaimed, “Open your mouths and eat! If you dare waste any food, I’ll kill you!”
The next second —
Jiang Chen and the others picked up their chopsticks and furiously began scooping food in their mouths.
Q_Q It turns out being threatened to eat was such a happy experience.
…
After breakfast.
Jiang Chen satisfyingly patted his belly, the corners of his mouth curling up. The other boys had similar reactions, as they were all satiated to the extreme.
Li Jianyu took a look at the time. “Alright, let’s go get ready. We will begin streaming soon.”
At nine o’clock, “Two Under One Roof” began to stream on time.
Li Jianyu began the episode from the gardens outside the manors, panning into the French windows.
Through the transparent glass, the seven teenagers greeted the camera with a smile.
“Hello everyone, we are SEASEVEN!”
The lens moved to their side and focused on Xiang Qi, his voice lazy yet elegant. “Self-intro? I’m Hai Dai… Hades.”
The members of Sea7 held in their laughter.
But Shi Sui laughed out loud.
Li Jianyu was even more out of control as his goose-like laughter echoed throughout the stream instantaneously. “Ehehehehehe hahahahaha kekeke ….”
*Translator’s Note: Hai Dai Si is a very accented and poorly pronunciation of “Hades”. It means seaweed strips.
