<h4>Chapter 58</h4>
"So..." Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Congrattions, baby Fan Jin, you guessed wrong! The fourth ce is your dad!"
It goes without saying who thest ce was with this revtion. Upon hearing this, the children couldn''t help but look towards their youngest sister.
Thetter had an aloof expression on her face, as if the words "I''m used to it" were written on her face.
"But this is only the current ranking. If there are any changes to the dads'' rankings during the babies''petition, the order of the babies''ter challenges will be updated in real time."
With this, several milk dads instantly lost interest in watching the lively scene. Ji Mochen turned around and walked away, he couldn''t lose face for his child.
To be reasonable, if it wasn''t for the children''s loud shout just now, he might not necessarily be thest ce!
The atmosphere on site instantly changed, and the live stream audience couldn''t help butugh out loud.
[Ji Mochen''s expression is so funny I''m going to dieughing, he looks exactly like me after failing an exam and having the teacher call my parents.]
After a lively round ofughter, the children''spetition also began. The little ones were clearly very fond of the fishing rods in their hands and were very interested in fishing as an activity.
However, there is always a gap between reality and expectations. Although the toy fish''s mouths were big, and though the fish bait had mas, the little ones'' hands were shaky.
One by one, either they would throw it between two fish, or they would miss their aim while adjusting. After a minute, the scores of the first three little guys were only two or three toy fish.
"It''s so hard," Geng Zhenzhen said as she shook her little hands. The previously lightweight fishing rod had be very heavy after being controlled for a long time.
"Humph! I don''t want to y anymore!" Lin Xindi angrily threw down his fishing rod, pouting.
Seeing her brother throw away his fishing rod, Mao Ziqing also quietly put down her own and didn''t want to y anymore.
Fan Jin, who was about to take the stage, waspletely unaware of her ymates'' low moods and was excitedly getting ready to start her own challenge.
On the other hand, because Lin Xindi''s thrown fishing rod happened tond not far from her, little Ji Ruochu thought about it and still toddled over. After picking up the fishing rod, she gently ced it back by his side.
"Don''t be angry, I''ll give you a fishter if I catch one."
"Really?" Lin Xindi''s eyes lit up, then darkened again. "But you''re even smaller than me, who knows if you can even catch anything."
Just then, Fan Jin''s regretful voice rang out, having clearly just missed the fathead fish again.
The little guys'' interest in the game dropped even more, increasingly hopeless.
"I definitely can do it, I''m very capable!" the little one vowed confidently.
Not long after, Fan Jin''s challenge also ended. Although she had failed many times, her record was still a little better than that of the other three little buddies, catching six fathead toy fish.
"Ruochu sister, here!" Fan Jin was overjoyed and generously picked out the best looking one from her spoils to give Ji Ruochu.
At this moment, the boy''s expression seemed to say: As expected, I can''t rely on dad at all. The fish he caught isn''t even as big as my toy fish. I''m the one who has to step up!
At the same time, Fan Hongru, who was fishing on the other side, suddenly sneezed. The audience went crazy giving him away in the bullet screenments.
[Mr. Fan, your son must have been criticizing you in his heart just now!]
[I can testify, he just looked disdainfully over at you earlier.]
...
In the end, Ji Ruochu politely epted the fathead fish handed to her by her littlepanion, and promised to also give him er.
Of course, in everyone else''s ears, this was clearly an empty promise. After all, this kid was only a little taller than the toy fishing rod, catching toy fish would probably tire her out in no time.
[I don''t know if I should say this, but our Ruochu is a little too confident in herself.]
[She reminds me exactly of my delusional "I''m number one in the world" feeling after taking an exam, hahaha...]
[Although I''m crazy for Ruochu, I still want to say, kiddo, your self-perception is a little inurate.]
Amidst the barrage of bullet screenments singing her praises, Ji Ruochu took the stage.
The little one was seen carrying the fishing rod over her shoulder with a look of ambition on her cute face.
With the straw hat on her head and trouser legs rolled up, the little milk baby really looked quite like a seasoned farmer.
"Ready?" The staff member asked, trying not tough.
"Wait a second!" Ji Ruochu adjusted the small straw hat that had slipped down to cover her eyes.
Taking a deep breath before the staff member could announce the start, her little feet nted shoulder-width apart, knees bent, hands gripped tightly around the fishing rod. Then—
"Hey!"
With a soft exmation, one end of the fishing pole was suddenly poked into the ground.
Everyone: ??? What is she doing?
"Uncle, I''m ready, let''s start!"
Not feeling reassured, she used her little feet to tread the loosened soil firm again, and moved her small stool over from the side. Once seated, the little one piped up.
"Oh, okay..." The staff member instantly regained his bearings. "Let the timer start!"
Almost at the same time as the stopwatch was pressed, Ji Ruochu had already easily adjusted the direction of the fishing rod while seated on the small stool. Squinting to confirm the position, she then bent the rod.
So in the next moment, everyone watched as the previously shaky fish bait used by the other little guys was now slowly and steadily lowered at a constant speed into the mouth of a fathead fish toy.
*Click*
Feeling the mas of the fish bait, the fathead fish toy instantly closed its mouth.
Seeing this, Ji Ruochu''s little hands gripping the rod finally let go. As the fishing rod sprang back, the first spoil of war was caught.
Everyone: You can do that?!
"Wow!"
The other four little ymates instantly had wide eyes as they rushed over to take a look.
*Click*
*Click*
*Click*
In just a few seconds, fishing prodigy little Ruochu had caught seven or eight fish.
With this, the chief director of the program was incredibly anxious. Damn, there were only fifty fish total in that toy, and even with the four kidsbined earlier they had only caught a little over ten.
But this little milk baby had almost surpassed their total in less than half the time. At this rate, wouldn''t she be able to end the game directly?!
This can''t go on, she must be stopped!
Thus, when Ji Ruochu caught her tenth fish, the entire toy tray suddenly let out a "ka" sound before slowly starting to rotate.
As if that wasn''t enough, as the base began turning, the obedient fathead fish also started moving up and down. When their heads came out, their mouths were wide open.
Then within three seconds, the fish heads would retract back into the base, and the fathead fish would have their mouths closed.
In other words, the fishing yer would have to quickly drop the maic fish bait down when the fish heads were raised up with mouths open, otherwise even if they touched, they wouldn''t be able to catch the fish.
Ji Ruochu, who instantly felt targeted: ...Are you looking down on me?
Faced with Ji Ruochu''s resentful little eyes, Xu Chuan who had been pushed out as the scapegoat only felt his scalp go numb, but still bravely began to exin:
"Ahem, that is...I forgot to mention earlier that once the number of fish in the tray drops below half, the difficulty will increase."
"Huh?!" The few little guys were shocked.
"Vige chief, you''re cheating!" Fan Jin was the first to be unhappy.
Xu Chuan the scapegoat: ...He''s innocent.
It has to be said that while the approach was unsavory, the effect was surprisingly remarkable. Because in thetter half minute, Ji Ruochu only caught two more fish.
Seeing this, the somewhat guilty chief director finally breathed a sigh of relief, and brazenly ordered the props team to be ready to speed up the spinning tform at any time.
Props team: ...Director, you really are shameless!
