Ge'er quickly took the computer and showed it to Jiang Nanfang.
However, Jiang Nanfang had no mood to care about click-through rates or becoming an internet celebrity.
With another pair of children whose lives were uncertain, saving them was the priority.
Ge'er pointed to the time the photos were posted, reminding her.
"Mommy, look. The photos were posted at 7:10 AM Beijing time. Brother and I weren't filming anything then, nor would we use this kind of gesture to take photos. Don't you think something is wrong?"
Hearing this, Jiang Nanfang's heart leaped, and she quickly examined the content of the photo post.
She was both surprised and delighted, "So, you mean to say..."
"Exactly. Although the two people in the photos look exactly like us, they are not us at all."
"They've both returned to Nancheng, and even went to the Zhan family's place."
Jing Yu and Jing Tian were not in Germany, but at Zhan Beijue's house?
In just one or two days, what was happening?
Jiang Nanfang truly admired her taste in friends and these four troublesome children.
But no matter what, since things had come to this, she could only accept reality.
"If this is true, it's actually a good thing."
"They must have gone to Nancheng to look for me. Since I'm not in Nancheng now, let's have them come back quickly."
"Send them a private message. Tell them to come find me in Danguo."
"Mommy isn't going back to Nancheng to pick them up?"
The children still held a sliver of hope.
They hoped there was still a chance for Jiang Nanfang and Zhan Beijue.
But Jiang Nanfang was resolute.
"I'm not going back to Nancheng. As long as they can return safely, and you all stay by my side, nothing else matters."
"Trust Mommy. Although we've fallen on hard times for now, we will rise again. Mommy will never let you suffer."
After speaking, she immediately sent private messages to the two accounts on the short video app.
She briefly explained the situation and waited for a reply.
Meanwhile, the two children put down the computer and went downstairs.
After last night's events, Gong Beibei was making an effort to please them and had gotten up early to make breakfast for them herself.
As soon as the milk and fried eggs were placed on the table, she smiled upon seeing the children approach.
"Come quickly and try the eggs Auntie fried for you."
"From now on, Auntie will make breakfast for you. Tell me what you want to eat, I'm willing to learn anything. Okay, Ge'er?"
Jing Tian walked over and glanced at the eggs she had fried.
"Auntie, you burnt them. Eating burnt food can poison children."
"..." It was only slightly burnt, did she have to be so picky?
Gong Beibei quickly used a knife and fork to cut off the burnt edges.
"Is this better?"
"Give Auntie some time to adapt. I'm trying my best and believe I'll get better and better. Ge'er, just make do with it for now."
Jing Tian, however, had no intention of making do.
"It's better if you practice until you get it right before giving it to me. I'm still young and need to grow, I can't be your test subject."
She felt this little girl was becoming more and more difficult to deal with.
Her words were becoming increasingly harsh.
Ruining her mood first thing in the morning.
As Gong Beibei was rendered speechless by her retort, Zhan Beijue also came downstairs.
As usual, he was expressionless.
Jing Tian, however, was not afraid at all. She ran over and sat on his lap, asking him about his plans after breakfast.
Zhan Beijue said, "I'm going to the company. You two will go to school. What other plans could there be? Could it be you're plotting something bad again?"
"I was just asking casually."
Jing Tian hugged his neck, unable to get enough of his incredibly handsome face.
The thought of such a handsome daddy about to become this foolish woman's husband made her feel unhappy.
She had to quickly find a way to dissuade him from marrying Gong Beibei.
No solution had come to mind yet when Gong Beibei interjected.
"A Jue, the engagement banquet is already being arranged. Time is tight, we need to get our outfits custom-made today."
"Auntie already made an appointment with the studio yesterday. You don't have to go to the company this morning."
The engagement banquet was already being arranged?
Time was tight, and in two days he would be engaged to Gong Beibei?
Although it was a foregone conclusion, just thinking about marrying her soon made Zhan Beijue feel quite uncomfortable.
He didn't know how things had come to this.
Damn Jiang Nanfang, it was all her fault!
Zhan Beijue was annoyed and didn't want to go.
"I'm busy. You go yourself. It's just an engagement banquet, not a particularly important occasion. I can wear anything."
"How can that be?"
As they were talking, Mrs. Zhan also came downstairs.
"Everyone in Nancheng knows you're getting engaged. All business partners and media will be there. How can you say it's not important?"
"Company matters can wait a day or two. You need to have the right attitude. Go when I tell you to go! You're so old, yet you don't know how to prioritize things."
Mrs. Zhan reprimanded him.
"You're about to become husband and wife with Beibei, yet you don't even leave any private time for her. Only she doesn't mind you. If it were someone else, ha!"
"Choose your clothes and then accompany her out for lunch. Do whatever you want, but you're not allowed to go to the company. You're cold to people all day. If your Uncle Gong knew, would he be at ease marrying his daughter to you?"
Her words left Zhan Beijue speechless.
Although he was unwilling to marry Gong Beibei, the situation was indeed his own doing.
At this point, he had no right to back out.
Moreover, Uncle Gong had such a deep relationship with his family. It would be truly unfair to Gong Beibei and a disservice to him.
Zhan Beijue could only reluctantly agree, "I understand."
Seeing that his father was actually going out on a date with Gong Beibei, Jing Tian felt even more unhappy.
"I want to go too! Daddy, Brother and I will definitely attend your engagement, right? Why are you only getting custom clothes for yourselves and not for us?"
"I want to go with you, pick a beautiful outfit for me too!"
He had forgotten about the two little ones.
Gong Beibei quickly tried to please them, "Yes. And there are the children, they need custom clothes too. Let's all go together."
After breakfast, the four of them got into Zhan Beijue's van.
Jing Tian, as if declaring her ownership, continuously sat next to Zhan Beijue, occupying his embrace.
Although Gong Beibei was his fiancée, she couldn't even touch a finger of Zhan Beijue's, which made her feel truly wronged.
Upon arriving at the studio, the staff enthusiastically surrounded them. They first measured the two children, then her.
Zhan Beijue sat outside with Jing Yu, waiting, while Jing Tian followed Gong Beibei around, observing.
And to make things difficult for her.
"Aunt Gong's figure proportions aren't good, and she has flabby arms. This won't look good on her."
"..."
"Your chest seems to sag a little, and it's not suitable for this style either."
"This one makes your waist look so thick, and it makes you look short-waisted."
After trying on several outfits, each one was criticized by her, making Gong Beibei furious.
"Ge'er is still young and doesn't understand adult aesthetics. Don't cause trouble here. Go, go out and play."
Jing Tian left the fitting room and returned to Zhan Beijue, sitting in his lap and shedding tears piteously.
"What's wrong?"
Zhan Beijue looked at her tearful face with utter confusion.
Jing Tian: "Aunt Gong scolded me~"
