Just as she was about to speak, Zhu Danni bustled over.
"Wow! Sheng Sheng, you're amazing! Natural super strength is so cool!"
Xiao Yufeng's eyes widened, and he muttered loudly, "It's over, it's over. I can't fool little girls anymore, or I'm afraid I'll be hammered to death."
Ke Xuan glanced at him sideways, "Come on, you should be grateful if Sheng Sheng doesn't fool you."
Xiao Yufeng was angry, "Brother Xuan, you are a senior, but you can't slander me out of thin air!"
Ke Xuan spread his hands, "Then ask everyone, based on how you've behaved and Sheng Sheng's intelligence and emotional quotient, who between you two is more likely to fool whom?"
Yao Yaoyao was the most subdued among everyone. She only looked up when she heard the crack of the wood being split.
Closing her slightly parted lips, Yao Yaoyao continued to peel off the rotten leaves from the cabbage in her hands and replied faintly.
"If it were before, I couldn't say. But I watched your show recordings on the way here today, and I think Sheng Sheng is more reliable."
Xiao Yufeng: o·o!
Few people who thrive in the entertainment industry are fools.
Even if there are stars with strong backgrounds, please believe that people who come from such family backgrounds are by no means simpletons.
Many people in the entertainment industry who seem like naive sweethearts are mostly just creating a persona.
Truly stupid people, while not non-existent, are extremely rare.
At least, among the guests invited by the show, there is no such person.
Even if someone has doubts, they will never stand out and expose the facade when everyone else shows trust.
Amidst their banter, the focus of the conversation quickly shifted from the little girl splitting wood to exposing Xiao Yufeng's past.
Those who had worked with Xiao Yufeng or had gotten to know him brought up the blunders he had made when he first entered the entertainment industry, reviving old memories.
Their conversation quickly shifted from Jian Sheng splitting wood to Xiao Yufeng.
At this point, besides the curses directed at the production team, the comments in the live stream finally saw some other remarks.
— Amazing, Xiao Yu has a lot of black history.
— Hilarious, otherwise do you think Xiao Yu's fans became more like anti-fans than anti-fans?
— Thank you to all the brothers and sisters for your unwavering support for Xiao Yu. It's great that you're still willing to play with him even like this.
It could be seen that the people who started to follow the topic shift with the guests were mostly Xiao Yufeng's fans.
Although the mainstream opinion was still cursing the production team for faking things and harming children, with some viewers leaving and the guests' timely intervention, the pace of the comments finally became less extreme.
The cameraman was also understanding and cooperated with the guests to shift the camera's focus, leaving the little girl in the least conspicuous part of the live broadcast.
This was to prevent Jian Sheng from being drawn into the center of attention.
Jian Sheng was confused for a moment, not quite understanding the direction of events.
However, upon seeing Xiao Yufeng wink at her repeatedly as he avoided the camera, the little girl suddenly smiled, a smile that was exceptionally heartwarming.
Some people in the live stream who were venting their anger saw this scene and suddenly fell silent.
— Although I'm cursing the production team, I actually still have some grievances with Jian Sheng for getting involved. But seeing this smile, I suddenly can't be angry anymore.
— Woohoo, Sheng Bao's smile is truly healing. I really don't want to believe that Sheng Bao would cooperate with the production team to fake a persona.
— Speaking of which, Jian Sheng is also a victim, right? After all, the plan was conceived by someone else, and she just obediently followed it.
— I don't think so. Regardless, she did cooperate with others to deceive us. Not scolding her is my basic moral bottom line, but that doesn't mean she's not at fault.
— You guys say, does Jian Sheng know she's being used?
— She probably knows everything, right? After all, she's so smart.
— I also feel like she knows something. Otherwise, if the others clearly aren't cooperating with her, a normal child who is eager to perform but ignored by everyone would surely feel wronged, right? But she's not only not unhappy but is smiling so happily.
— You saying that makes me feel something is off too. Does she perhaps know exactly what she's doing and the consequences of her actions? So when she saw others ignoring her and changing the topic, she knew they were doing it for her own good, which is why she's smiling so happily?
— Holy crap, are you guys just making things up? She's just a four-year-old child, she can't be that monstrous, right?
— It's really a bit chilling when you think about it.
— If Jian Sheng knew everything… I can only say: Production team, come out and take your punishment!
— Here they come, here they come, her hired commenters are here.
— Hired commenters get lost. We never even thought of causing trouble for Jian Sheng, alright? I'm an individual! I have basic moral standards!
At this moment, Jiang Bin suddenly received a notification from Hu Guangxu asking him to check if the split wood was real or fake and if there were any signs of gluing.
Jiang Bin replied, "Received," and signaled to the cameraman.
The cameraman understood immediately.
The little girl, who was already in the corner of the live broadcast screen, completely disappeared from the screen.
Jiang Bin turned off his microphone and walked over to the little girl, also turning off her microphone.
"The cameras can't see here, so our voices won't be heard."
"Mm, Sheng Sheng understands~"
Jian Sheng put down the axe and found a wooden block to sit on, gently swinging her legs.
Her gaze remained fixed on where the others were playing, her clear eyes devoid of any impurities, filled only with the purest happiness and smiles.
Jiang Bin, who was about to say something, froze for a moment looking at the little girl's bright smile, and the question he wanted to ask remained unasked.
Instead, he quietly walked over to the wood that the little girl had split and examined it repeatedly, incredibly finding no trace of adhesive.
Just then, the little girl spoke up proactively.
"Brother Jiang, I'll tell them later that I lied to them for fun, and I didn't expect them to actually believe it and get scared."
Jiang Bin, who was squatting on the ground checking, was stunned and looked at the little girl with a錯愕 tilt of his head.
"This is... the excuse you came up with beforehand?"
Knowing that he should have discovered that the wood was indeed split by her, the little girl nodded, "Yes, I don't like being looked at like a monster. And this scene must have caused you trouble, right? I'll explain to them."
Jiang Bin was silent. After a moment, he asked, "But they didn't treat you like a monster, and this wood was indeed split by you. Our trouble is naturally not trouble. Since the outcome is good, why didn't you proceed according to the original plan?"
The little girl cupped her cheeks with her hands, watching the others play with a distant look. "Because I don't want to let down their kindness either~"
