Chapter 86

Chapter 86

Soon, the three groups of guests finalized their plans for the day.

Actress Lin and Xiao Hua decided to visit the aquarium that Xiao Hua loved, Tong Zhi and Xia Xiaoling planned to participate in a charity marathon, while Yi Tiantian and Mumu chose to tour a school.

Xiao Hua and Tong Zhi's mothers did not choose to follow the production team, as they wanted to foster their children's independence.

Although children with disabilities may have some deficiencies compared to ordinary people, they still need to stand on their own in society. This show provided them with their first opportunity for independence.

Only Mumu's mother, Yang Li, insisted on joining the production team.

"Our Mumu's health condition doesn't allow it, so I'll go with her."

Yang Li smiled, her wrinkles deepening around her eyes.

The staff did not persuade her, prioritizing the children's well-being.

Mumu had been sitting in a wheelchair since she appeared, her face occasionally turning pale, indicating genuine health concerns.

"Alright, we will now split into three groups and begin our activities."

The staff member directed everyone.

Yi Tiantian's group, needing to coordinate with the school, delayed their departure slightly.

During this delay, Yang Li looked somewhat anxious, constantly squatting down to whisper instructions to Mumu.

In response to her mother's incessant chatter, the obedient Mumu nodded vigorously, trying to soothe Yang Li's unease.

Seeing this scene, Yi Tiantian couldn't help but inwardly criticize again.

"Mumu's health condition doesn't actually require a wheelchair, and she is capable of going to school alone! Yang Li has been controlling her daughter, preventing her from attending school because she fears Mumu might become too interested in school life and want to break free!"

"A cat kept at home for too long can easily be lured by the outside world. She thinks Mumu will insist on going to school after experiencing it, thus escaping her control!"

Upon hearing Yi Tiantian's thoughts, the staff members assigned to his group couldn't help but gasp.

Yang Li's controlling nature was truly overwhelming!

Having such an overprotective mother must be suffocating!

Many people were glancing at Yang Li and Mumu out of the corner of their eyes.

Mumu naturally heard Yi Tiantian's thoughts as well.

However, she only paused momentarily before looking at her mother, Yang Li, with a determined gaze.

It seemed Mumu was silently assuring her mother that she trusted her and wouldn't be swayed by Yi Tiantian's thoughts.

Yang Li's anxious expression softened, and the wrinkles around her eyes smoothed out.

She gently stroked her daughter's glossy black hair and said warmly, "Good girl Mumu, let's do our best today!"

Mumu revealed eight neat white teeth in a radiant smile, "Okay, Mom!"

Finally, the school arrangements were made, and Yi Tiantian's group could start filming.

Hearing the news, Mumu's eyes widened with excitement, and she sat up straighter in her wheelchair.

Only Yang Li remained worried, just as Yi Tiantian's thoughts suggested, fearing her daughter would be drawn to the outside world.

Glancing at Yi Tiantian from the corner of her eye, Yang Li felt a surge of resentment.

This Yi Tiantian not only exposed her secrets but also tried to take Mumu away from her!

After all, Mumu was her life, her everything!

So Yang Li decided to use her and Mumu's special circumstances to make this impudent young star suffer online backlash for his actions today.

Unfamiliar with the entertainment industry, Yang Li only knew a few veteran actors like Actor Fei, so she instinctively considered Yi Tiantian a minor celebrity.

Gradually, a plan formed in her mind.

Her eyes turned cold, and her grip on the wheelchair handles tightened.

Mumu, noticing her mother's unusual expression, shivered slightly.

"Mom? What's wrong?"

Yang Li quickly regained her composure, her dry lips curving into a slight smile.

"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered..."

Before Yang Li could finish, Yi Tiantian's voice interrupted her.

"Ms. Yang, Mumu, we can leave now."

Seeing Yi Tiantian approach, Yang Li immediately widened her eyes in feigned surprise.

"I'm sorry, I need a bit more time to prepare things!"

With that, she lowered her head and told Mumu, "Mom will get the things; you wait here with Brother Tiantian."

Neither Yi Tiantian nor the staff were in a hurry, waiting quietly for Yang Li.

Watching her mother's departing figure, Mumu curiously glanced at Yi Tiantian.

Unexpectedly, her curious gaze caught Yi Tiantian's attention, and he responded with a warm smile.

Mumu had never seen anyone as beautiful as Yi Tiantian before; her fair cheeks had turned a light pink.

At that moment, Yang Li rushed back in a hurry.

She held a light brown cloth bag from which she pulled out numerous medications, seemingly checking if anything was missing.

After almost thoroughly counting the medicines, Yang Li took out a blue mask from the bag.

She carefully tore open the packaging and squatted down to put it on Mumu.

However, Yang Li keenly noticed the redness on Mumu's cheeks.

"What's wrong, Mumu? Are you feeling unwell? Why are your cheeks so red?!"

Yang Li anxiously touched Mumu's face.

"I'm fine, Mom."

Mumu shyly pulled away Yang Li's hand.

Her face had turned red because she had been secretly looking at Yi Tiantian, and now, with everyone watching, she felt embarrassed.

Yang Li was shocked to see her daughter push her hand away, and her frown deepened.

Mumu had never resisted any of her actions before, but today, she went to school and pushed her hand away, making Yang Li feel uneasy.

Yang Li gave Mumu a stern look, turning her back to the camera.

Mumu realized her action had upset her mother, so she immediately composed herself and whispered, "I'm sorry, Mom."

Hearing her daughter's apology, Yang Li's worry eased slightly.

Remembering they were still on camera, Yang Li quickly put the mask on Mumu again.

"And remember, there are many students at school, and lots of germs. You must wear the mask properly. If you catch any bacteria, your body might not be able to handle it."

Mumu nodded vigorously.

Yang Li gently touched Mumu's face, then stood up and smiled at the camera and Yi Tiantian.

"Sorry, we have so many things to take care of when Mumu goes to school, so it took a bit longer..."

"It's okay."

Yi Tiantian replied calmly.

Having seen Yang Li's true colors through the system, he didn't want to waste words with this woman.

But the comments section was captivated by Yang Li's series of pitiful actions, sympathizing with the mother-daughter duo and criticizing Yi Tiantian's behavior.

[Did Yang Li just pull out all those medications for Mumu?! Oh my, they're so pitiful! How much money does that cost? It must be so hard for Yang Li to take care of Mumu alone!! I'll donate some money for Mumu's medications right away!!]

[Yang Li is such a responsible mother, keeping everything organized! She even prepared a mask for Mumu due to the germs at school. What an attentive and thoughtful mom!!!]

[Yi Tiantian is really sick-minded. Doesn't he understand that children can be ignorant? Why send a weak child like Mumu to a crowded place like school? Ridiculous!]

[Yi Tiantian, please recognize your position. Even though you're the judge of the entertainment industry, it only applies within that circle! Stay away from Yang Li and Mumu!!]

[But visiting the school was Mumu's wish. Other kids can participate in activities according to their wishes, so Mumu going to school with her mom shouldn't be a big deal! The previous comments are overreacting!]

[I agree. Mumu's disability isn't disfiguring; it's just scars. In theory, it should have little impact on her health...]

The comments section erupted into arguments over Yi Tiantian's actions, but when the live stream showed Mumu standing up excitedly from her wheelchair upon seeing the school, the arguments suddenly ceased.

Mumu even jumped up and down in excitement.

[?? Wait, I take back what I said about Mumu being unhealthy. This kid looks pretty healthy...]

[Didn't expect such a quick turnaround! I'm stunned. It seems Yi Tiantian made the right decision. Seeing Mumu jumping around at school is great.]

[Entertainment Judge, please forgive me. I want to see more of your judgments!]

Not just the comments, even the staff members on-site were bewildered.

Mumu could not only stand up from her wheelchair but also jump around!

Why did Yang Li push her around every day?!

Yi Tiantian's thoughts provided everyone with an answer.

"Poor Mumu will be scolded by Yang Li again!"

"Mumu doesn't need a wheelchair at all, but Yang Li makes her use one to gain sympathy from the media and netizens!"

"This terrible mother is the biggest poison in Mumu's life. If it weren't for her, Mumu wouldn't have been disfigured!"

The staff members who heard Yi Tiantian's thoughts immediately looked at Yang Li.

What did this mother do to cause her daughter's disfigurement?!

Facing these questioning gazes, Yang Li broke out in a cold sweat.
