Chapter 157
That previous scene was absolutely thrilling.
The live streaming room was so scared that there were moments when the bullet screen was frozen.
"Why would NiuNiu run here?"
"Thankfully Jiang Xun appeared and lifted NiuNiu, otherwise the consequences would've been unthinkable."
"I have a neighbor's child who fell into a hot water basin because no one was watching her. She suffered 30% burns all over her body and it was very painful."
"Thank you, Jiang Xun."
Many in the live broadcasting room have followed the Starry Sky Kindergarten's live broadcasts before and many really like little beauty like NiuNiu.
In addition, NiuNiu has a sweet mouth, many fans in the live broadcast room are her mom fans.
That scene just now really frightened quite a few people.
Shen Wei and the host immediately came over to apologize, promising to look after the child better next time.
This appeased some of the situation.
However, many people began to fawn over Jiang Xun's looks.
Jiang Xun has a look that mothers-in-law would love.
"He's not an instant handsome guy, but his good looks are enduring."
"It turns out that when men are caring, it really does add to their attractiveness!"
"At first, I thought he was just average. Starry Sky spoiled us too much, all kinds of security teams. All of them are tall people over 1 meter 80."
"When I saw his action of rescuing NiuNiu just now, I was really crying. Now no matter how I look at him, he is handsome."
"Since nobody has discovered his charms, then I will not be polite. Regard him as my new husband."
"Nonsense, he is clearly my husband."
"I can't even imagine how loving he would be if he had a child."
The discussion online suddenly went off course, the scales got bigger and bigger.
These are definitely old fans who often follow the live broadcasts, even scaring the new fans. In broad daylight, what is going on.
Chef Liu didn't return to his judge seat immediately, he held NiuNiu and said to her, "Apologize to brother."
"Sorry brother!" NiuNiu said in a milky voice, extending her little hand for a hug.
Jiang Xun had been having a hard time recently, there was always a sense of depressive air about him.
He didn't expect that a child would want to get close to him willingly.
So he held the child in his arms quite stiffly.
His body was too straight, and it was uncomfortable for the child.
But NiuNiu was gracious, even proactively pressing her little face against his chest.
The soft and fluffy little girl, truly adorable.
Chef Liu also repeatedly said, "Thank you, thank you so much!"
It was his precious granddaughter, he was still not over the shock of what just happened.
Jiang Xun said, "There's no need to thank me, anyone who saw it wouldn't just stand by and watch. I have to go back."
He still had a competition on his end, he couldn't delay too long.
Besides, Chef Liu's other identity was a judge, that was a bit sensitive.
NiuNiu was still reluctant, saying, "I want more hugs!"
She was pulled back forcefully by Chef Liu.
The little one was originally resisting, but one glance from Chef Liu made her quiet.
She knew she had caused trouble.
So she stayed, looking a little sulky.
Jiang Xun was praised in the live room as if he was a blooming flower.
Many people accompanied the thrilling scene of him rescuing a person with music and posted it.
He was quickly recognized, he was the one who was synonymous with a jerk some time ago.
Some people then started being sarcastic, "Could it be a publicity stunt?"
"Using a child for publicity, there are no limits to what they'll do."
"Just think, would anyone so heartless as to use their own mentor as a stepping-stone, ever be this kindhearted? I find it hard to believe."
The fans in the live chat grew irate. "What's wrong with saving someone now?" They retorted.
"Everything is tainted for those with hearts as black as soot!"
"Who would use NiuNiu's life as a gamble in their game?"
A person responded, "You naysayers must be jobless, your whole day consists of peeping and prying into others' lives."
"Well, I don't care what you say. I believe in what my eyes have shown me. He did save that person."
The online community was ablaze with debate.
Those detractors had thought that making Jiang Xun's deeds public would bring him a catastrophe.
However, netizens, having witnessed several workplace reversals, were no longer easily fooled.
"The Qing Dynasty has long been over, yet you still use the mentor-disciple code to constrain others."
"Children have the purest vision. If a child decides that he is a good person, then he must indeed have a kind heart."
The detractors, outnumbered, left in a huff.
Only then did the quarrel cease.
The fans of Starry Sky Kindergarten had survived through similar challenges.
The so-called victory over netizens no longer excited them.
This conflict soon ended as Chef Liu left first.
He had been upset since the mishap occurred with NiuNiu.
Only when he returned and saw NiuNiu playing alone with blocks in the classroom did he breathe a sigh of relief.
He was ready to scold her, but then NiuNiu's mother rushed in.
Chef Liu’s daughter-in-law had a fiery temper.
They lived in a different district of the city, and most of the time the child was under the care of Chef Liu and his wife.
Regardless, a child’s concern weighs heavy on a mother’s heart, and she visited two or three times a week.
NiuNiu's mother even set the live streaming room as a special follow, she could not resist watching it every time a broadcast began.
Mothers are always finding new ways to understand their children.
The day was meant for NiuNiu's mother to pick up NiuNiu to take her home.
She left early and arrived at her mother-in-law's house, only to find NiuNiu absent.
She tuned into the live-streaming channel, and saw the scene where NiuNiu almost got scalded.
In an instant, her face went pale.
She hastily drove over.
Upon finding NiuNiu, she hugged her tightly - the girl was visibly shaken.
NiuNiu was taken aback, but obediently let her mother hold her, looking at her mother with a tilted head.
After inspecting NiuNiu quickly, her mother exploded in fury and spanked NiuNiu hard.
NiuNiu, the precious gem of the family, was rarely scolded, let alone hit.
This was unprecedented.
The main point was that NiuNiu was really disobedient.
If the situation had turned for the worse, it would have been her mother's death too.
The last thing NiuNiu expected was a scolding from her mother who had travelled all the way here. She burst into tears.
A child's cry has a heart-rending tone.
It was hard to hear.
Chef Liu was filled with pain. The little gal knew who her saviour would be, so she started calling out to Chef Liu.
Chef Liu wanted to give NiuNiu a major lesson from this incident, he could not let her continue her reckless actions. Thus, he turned a deaf ear to her cries.
The reaction of being scolded by her mother and ignored by her grandfather made her wail even louder.
Her little face turned bright red, and the crying shook the house.
Chef Liu, being advanced in age, was soft-hearted when it came to children - especially his beloved granddaughter.
At this very moment, she was wiping her tears behind her back.
She hardly dared to face her daughter-in-law.
However, her daughter-in-law was still reproaching, "Do you realise how dangerous it was just now? What did mother tell you before? If you continue like this, mother will not want you anymore.”
NiuNiu was sobbing so hard that she was quickly going hoarse.
This time, NiuNiu's mother merely intended for the child to learn a lesson.
After stopping, she still asked her, "Do you know you were wrong?"
NiuNiu, still crying, turned around and paid no attention to her mother.
Only when she saw her mother about to take action again, did the little one reluctantly say, "I know.”
Only then did NiuNiu's mother hold the child back in her arms.
Then she saw Chef Liu and said, "Dad, we are leaving first."
Chef Liu responded with a sound of agreement.
Seeing his precious granddaughter crying like this.
He thought to himself, when he comes back, he must buy her the most expensive doll. The child had really been terribly frightened today.
