Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show

At this time, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo’s livestream channel had also become lively with excitement and expectation.

[They’re coming!]

[Ah! The wait is finally over. They’re here! ]

… …

After last week’s livestream and this weekend’s episode, the program [Living with Dad] was able to gain a lot of popularity.

In Bai Yulin’s livestream channel alone, the number of online users have already exceeded 1 million before the livestream even started, and the popularity of the other dads‘ livestream channels have also increased considerably. This was especially true with Duan Bei’s livestream channel, which was now almost as popular as Bai Yulin’s.

Although the popularity of Lin Cheng’s livestream channel still couldn’t compare with the other dad-and-baby teams, it nevertheless also rose to a respectable 134,533 online users.

Among them, many people were viewers who had watched their livestream last week, so they were not at all affected by the episode as edited by the program group. This time, they were even more supportive of the Lin father and daughter.

Of course, there were also some who came to see the excitement because of the heat generated by the weekend’s episode:

[I’ll just watch it a bit, and then I’ll leave.]

[Here just as a passerby.]

[Accidentally clicked in, but will take a look before leaving.]

… … 

Wang Xi was sitting in front of the computer and frowned when she read these kinds of comments. “The audience is too much, do you even know what you’re watching!” she complained, berating the viewers out loud.

Zhou Qi next to her seemed much calmer. He glanced at the number of people online in the livestream channel and said, “At any rate, it’s still considered traffic.” 

Through their observations of what happened in the past week, he actually had a premonition: after watching the livestream, these passersby might become real fans of Lin Cheng and Lin Momo.

As for the father and daughter, Lin Cheng and Lin Momo couldn’t see the content on the barrage, so they were not affected at all.

Lin Momo followed Lin Cheng into the house.

Because it was a self-built structure, the building was a little different from the old-fashioned residential building they lived in last week.

The house was not big, with four floors in total and only four houses on each floor.

Lin Cheng and Lin Momo walked up to the second floor; the first room at the top of the stairs was their house for the week.

Lin Cheng opened the door, and just like last time, he handed the key and the envelope containing the money to Lin Momo for budget management and safekeeping.

As the door opened, father and daughter laid their eyes on the inside of the house for the first time.

The house was only about 50 square meters and was quite small. The front portion was the living room, with a half kitchen farther on. There were two doors on the left, which should be the bedroom and the bathroom.

There was some simple furniture inside the room, which made the small house look a little crowded. There were also small appliances such as a refrigerator, electric fan, and rice cooker. These appliances all look a bit old.

“I don’t know if these can still be used…” Lin Momo whispered.

At this time, Lin Momo had, very characteristically, already started to think about her family’s assets.

Lin Cheng also looked around the place—the house looked very dilapidated, but it was still better than last week. At the very least, it was liveable, and the basic facilities were fairly complete.

“Go on in.”

“Okay.”

The father and daughter walked into the house.

With the painful lesson from last time, the first thing the two did when they walked into the house was to check whether the ceiling had leaks.

“This time there should be no more water leakage,” Lin Momo said, staring at the ceiling.

“Not necessarily.”

After finishing speaking, Lin Cheng pointed to several spots in the room.

Although there were no obvious traces of water stains on the ceiling and walls of the entire house, some peeling and mildew could still be seen along several areas of the room.

When it rained, there should be water seepage in these places.

“Then… should we find someone to fix it?” Lin Momo asked after thinking for a long time.

Compared to getting sick and going to the hospital then spending more than a hundred yuan for an injection, Lin Momo thought it was more cost-effective to pay for the repairs instead.

Lin Cheng nodded, “Yes.”

The area of ​​the leak inside the house shouldn’t be large, but it was hard to judge the severity without actual rainfall, so it would have to be an estimate.

“I’ll go and see where we can find someone who repairs leaks later,” Lin Cheng said.

At this time, Lin Momo raised her voice, “There is one outside!”

Hearing this, Lin Cheng made a doubtful expression,”Outside?”

What did she mean by ‘outside’, and why didn’t he see it?

“In the alley outside,” Lin Momo said, and dragged Lin Cheng back downstairs to the alley outside the small building.

“That right here,” Lin Momo pointed to the wall in front of them and said to Lin Cheng, “Look, there’s everything on it!”

Lin Cheng’s eyes fell on the wall in front of him. All kinds of ads were posted, big and small.

[Unlocking and changing locks], [Professional dredging of sewers], [House repair], [Gas replacement], [Miraculous doctor and magic medicine, professional treatment of XX disease], [Professional litigation], [Professional debt collection]… 

It was just like Lin Momo said: everything was there.

“Here! There is a leak repair here!” Lin Momo said, pointing to one of the small ad notices, very much pleased with finding it.

Lin Cheng was still skeptical about the authenticity of these small advertisements, but seeing Lin Momo’s experienced appearance, he took out his mobile phone and dialed one of the numbers.
