A group of people walked around in the crowd, stopping frequently, because there were just too many people around.

When they passed a noodle shop, they decided to stop and rest for a while.

Feng Feifei looked reluctant. "Are we really going to eat here?" Her tone lacked its usual enthusiasm, probably because she was afraid of being scolded before.

Mo Jingyu glanced at her and said, "If you don't want to, you can go find a place you like. Nobody is forcing you to stay here."

Feng Feifei: ...

She knew in her heart that if she really left alone, not to mention the camera, the popularity of her live broadcast room would definitely plummet.

After some hesitation, I obediently sat down.

The group ordered the seafood noodles that the owner highly recommended, and Mo Jingyu also ordered an extra serving of shrimp dumplings.

Zhao Momo and Lin Yunyuan also bought a lot of local specialties and snacks. While waiting for the dishes to be served, they shared the snacks.

Li Ziang was very generous, sharing snacks with Jiang Yan'an and the others, and even taking on the role of a food blogger.

"This tastes like seaweed, you guys should try it."

It turned out to be grilled saury. The skin was grilled until crispy, and it did have a seaweed flavor.

Jiang Yan'an handed it to Mo Jingyu, "Mom, it really tastes like seaweed."

Mo Jingyu lowered her head, took a bite, and nodded in agreement, "Hmm, it does look quite similar."

"An'an, do you want Mommy to help you pick out the thorns?"

Jiang Yan'an shook his head, "No need, it tastes better this way."

Li Ziang, who was standing to the side, nodded vigorously in agreement.

The children seemed oblivious to the strange atmosphere among the adults. From the moment they sat down, Mo Jingyu and the other adults remained mostly silent. Mo Weiwei was still lost in thought, and Feng Feifei tried to start a conversation, but no one paid her any attention.

Mo Jingyu, Zhao Momo, and Lin Yunyuan exchanged glances discreetly.

Mo Jingyu: Keep quiet, Feng Feifei is too annoying.

Zhao Momo: I can't hold it in anymore, let's chat about some gossip.

Lin Yunyuan: Stay calm, don't act impulsively.

Finally, Zhao Momo spoke first, "Jingyu, after this episode ends, let's go out and have some fun."

Mo Jingyu nodded, "Sure, I'm very free. What about Yunyuan?"

Zhao Momo responded directly on behalf of Lin Yunyuan, "Even if she didn't want to come, I would have dragged her here."

Lin Yunyuan could only smile helplessly and nod in agreement.

Wow, this sisterhood is amazing!

[Just like me and my best friend]

This is truly touching!

“I’m not going.” Feng Feifei interrupted abruptly, silencing the room once again. She seemed oblivious and continued, “I have work to do later.”

Zhao Momo: ...

"I didn't ask you."

Mo Weiwei: ...Why doesn't Feng Feifei have a brain? I'd better stay away from her.

How embarrassing!

It's rare to see someone so lacking in tact.

Why are you isolating our Feifei? Have you no shame?

[Holy crap, if someone's not smart, they donate and then drag themselves into it, whose fault is that?!]

[Donating someone with this kind of brain would only harm others]

Feng Feifei hadn't expected Zhao Momo to be so blunt. Wasn't she afraid of being scolded? But she forgot that the two had already fallen out during the treasure hunt. Even if she thought of it, she probably would have assumed that the other was just trying to get attention.

Before we could finish our conversation, the noodles were served.

The seafood noodles were even more delicious than Mo Jingyu had expected. When you come to a coastal city, seafood is definitely a must-try.

Everyone had been walking around for so long and was starving, so they ate with extra relish, as if all the snacks they had eaten before had been wasted.

Of the group, only Mo Jingyu ordered shrimp dumplings, while the others only ordered a bowl of noodles. They thought they would just try it, but they didn't expect the noodles to be so different from what they usually ate. One bowl was not enough for both adults and children, so everyone ordered other dishes.

When everyone got up to leave, their bellies were all round and full. Zhao Momo moved closer to Lin Yunyuan and waved to Mo Jingyu. The three of them slowed down and lagged behind.

Zhao Momo muttered under her breath, "She said this place wasn't clean before, but I saw her eat the most." Lin Yunyuan reacted quickly, covering the microphones of both of them, while Mo Jingyu spread her hands to show her empty waist.

"We ate too much earlier, let's pick the wheat."

Zhao Momo brushed Lin Yunyuan's hand away, nonchalantly saying, "Who cares about her? It's not like it's the first time my fans have heard me complain about her."

Lin Yunyuan, like a worried old mother, earnestly advised, "But the variety shows you were on before, everyone felt that they were heavily scripted. Now this is live..." As she spoke, she looked at the camera, "If the audience feels that there is not much script, they will take your performance as normal. What's worse, they might attack Zi'ang."

Zhao Momo nodded, seemingly understanding, "But what does this have to do with Xiao Ang? Shouldn't it be about me?"

Mo Jingyu chimed in, “Because you’re his mother, those netizens will easily associate your behavior with Zi Ang, and they’ll definitely say things like, ‘Like father, like son.’”

Lin Yunyuan nodded in agreement.

Zhao Momo then realized what was happening and asked, "Then Jingyu, you..."

Mo Jingyu said, "I'm different. I'm a stepmother. An'an had already received an education before I came along. It's hard for me to completely change An'an." But in her heart, she was thinking about the subsequent developments in the original story. It wasn't just that she couldn't completely influence An'an; she had completely changed her.

The three children watched their mother making little movements all the way, and wondered what she was whispering about.

Finally, Li Ziang heard a few keywords, guessed the general meaning, and tugged at Zhao Momo, "Mom, if anyone scolds you, I'll help you."

Zhao Momo was instantly touched by this thoughtful little rascal, hugged Li Ziang and kissed him repeatedly, calling him her precious son.

Li Ziang was stunned and pushed away Zhao Momo's mouth that was leaning towards him. "So what happened?...Mom, you spit on my face!"

Zhao Momo's kissing motion abruptly stopped, her heart breaking with emotion. She gave Li Ziang a light slap on the bottom, saying, "It's nothing, it's just that Mom thinks that constantly scolding people will affect your reputation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan'an immediately told Mo Jingyu, "Mom, An'an isn't afraid of bad reputation. Grandma said it's not good to keep your anger bottled up."

Li Ziang chimed in, "Yes, yes, Grandma An'an is right, it's really uncomfortable to hold your breath."

Zhao Momo: ? This isn't going in the right direction?

She tentatively asked, "But what if people say you have a bad temper and like to swear in the future?"

Li Ziang felt incredibly brave at that moment, and analyzed, "Silly mother, since they all said that, doesn't that give me a reason to curse people in the future?"

Zhao Momo slapped her forehead. "Oh right, how come I didn't think of that!"

Lin Yunyuan was heartbroken. How could Momo have been led astray by her son?

"Mom, if there's anything you don't like, you should tell me. I don't care," came Su Nuohan's sweet voice.

Lin Yunyuan's eyes welled up with tears. She hadn't expected Nuonuo to be so considerate. She couldn't be as carefree as Mo Jingyu, but at least she would have the confidence to speak her mind when facing injustice in the future, because her daughter had given her plenty of support.

Feng Feifei, who was walking a little ahead, didn't notice the commotion, but Mo Weiwei heard it clearly.

Say what you don't like? It's not that easy.

She went from being a victim of bullying to becoming a bully; she paid a heavy price.

Just like the last scandal, saying she was unfilial. Ha, she's unfilial? She admits to bullying, unfilial? Humph.

She'd rather they be "filial" to death than be "filial" to that family.

For 20 years, she has lived in the shadow of her family; that supposedly famous home for 20 years was like a den of demons.

She finally made it through, only to be told they weren't her biological parents? What a joke! She'd suffered for someone else for 20 years!

So how could Mo Weiwei not hate the person who stole 20 years of her wonderful life? Before going home, she vowed to make the other party pay double.

But when she first met Mo Jingyu, she wavered. Such a beautiful girl, she couldn't bear to drag her down with her.

But just like what happened to Mo Jingyu, there was always a voice urging her from the bottom of her heart: Revenge! Revenge! She uncontrollably became hostile towards Mo Jingyu.

After realizing the true colors of Mo Jingyu's parents, Mo Weiwei had a moment of clarity. Such parents had nothing to do with Mo Jingyu's goodness, and they shouldn't have treated that girl like that...

However, she failed and became embroiled in a cycle of revenge.

From being a victim of bullying to becoming a bully, the truth behind those scandals is mixed. She did participate in bullying, but more often she ignored it.

Before returning to the Mo family, hadn't she ever helped those who were being bullied? Yes, she had. But because of that act of helping, she became the target herself, and the insults and pranks never stopped.

Did Mo Weiwei ever regret it after becoming a member of the bullying group herself? Perhaps she regretted it when she first met Mo Jingyu, but there was no going back...

Mo Weiwei's mind was racing, from initial mockery to later longing, a constant struggle. In the end, she rejected a certain idea, but once a seed is planted, it will sprout sooner or later...

If Mo Jingyu knew these thoughts, she would only find them absurd. Not wanting to be bullied, so she bullies others? What bizarre logic.

Xie Yifan's call pulled Mo Weiwei back to reality. She squatted down and asked, "What's wrong, Fanfan?"

Xie Yifan said firmly, "Mom, if there's anything you don't like, you have to say it. I'm not afraid of what others say; I want to protect you!"

Mo Weiwei was stunned; she had forgotten that she had a son who loved her deeply.

She didn't quite believe in Xie Ming's love, but no matter how she acted, her son always loved her. At this moment, Mo Weiwei felt like a fool, always fighting for that ethereal parental love and romantic love, while neglecting her son.

Mo Weiwei picked up Xie Yifan and smiled sincerely, "Okay, Mom understands."

At this moment, a crack quietly appeared somewhere in Mo Weiwei's heart, and it slowly spread.
