I put you in charge of the child, and you raised a monster!

While dragging her small suitcase, Chen Doudou whispered to Lin Jia, "Mom, will there be food on the plane this time?"

Lin Jia said helplessly, "Yes."

Chen Doudou nodded.

"Then I won't be nervous anymore."

Chen Hao was both amused and exasperated.

"Your nervousness is surprisingly consistent."

Shen Ling'er was walking beside Yang Mi when she heard these words and turned to look at Chen Doudou.

"He's fine the way he is."

Chen Hao was taken aback.

Why?

Shen Ling'er said, "If a person is scared but can still remember to eat, it means their mind isn't completely confused. If their mind isn't confused, they can obey."

Chen Doudou paused for a moment, then straightened her small chest earnestly.

"My mind isn't confused."

Zhao Lei immediately responded.

"DouDou, congratulations! You've earned Teacher Ling'er's psychological stability certification by thinking about food."

Chen Doudou asked, "Is there a reward?"

Zhao Lei: "..."

Shen Ling'er thought for a moment.

"You could reward him by letting him look at the menu first."

Chen Doudou's eyes lit up instantly.

"This is good!"

Everyone burst into laughter again.

The comments section went crazy.

"Hahaha, DouDou uses food to stabilize her emotions."

"Ling'er's explanation makes a lot of sense. The fact that she can still want to eat when she's scared means that she hasn't broken down."

"She really knows how to make use of everyone's characteristics. Zhao Lei's loudness and Dou Dou's eating habits can all be turned into advantages."

"Zhao Lei: A loud voice has strategic value. Dou Dou: An appetite has stabilizing value."

"The production team is full of talented people, but the direction is a bit strange."

After boarding.

Yang Mi first checked Shen Ling'er's seatbelt.

Shen Ling'er glanced down and then tugged at it herself.

"It's fastened."

Yang Mi patted her little head.

"Just sleep when you're tired this time, there's no need to keep observing you."

Shen Ling'er looked up at her.

"Mom, I'll go to sleep."

She paused for a moment, then added, "But you should still watch it before bed."

Yang Mi sighed softly, her eyes filled with heartache and helplessness.

"Okay, I'll watch it once and then go to sleep."

Zhao Lei, who was sitting in the front row, immediately put his water cup down properly, folded his blanket, and tucked his legs in when he heard this.

Bai Sisi couldn't help but laugh when she saw him like that.

"Why are you sitting so upright?"

Zhao Lei lowered his voice.

"I'm afraid Teacher Ling'er will check on me later and say that I'm a moving risk point."

Shen Ling'er looked up at him.

"You are not a moving risk point right now."

Zhao Lei was overjoyed.

"real?"

Shen Ling'er nodded.

"You are now a fixed risk point."

Zhao Lei: "..."

Bai Sisi burst out laughing on the spot.

Zhao Mengmeng also covered her mouth and laughed.

"Dad, you've been fixed in place."

Zhao Lei took a deep breath.

"It's okay, the fact that it's fixed means I at least didn't move around."

Shen Ling'er nodded seriously.

"It's an improvement that you can think this way."

Zhao Lei instantly became happy again.

"Bai Sisi! I've improved again!"

Bai Sisi rubbed her forehead.

"Keep your voice down, the plane hasn't taken off yet."

Zhao Lei immediately covered his mouth.

This time, the return flight was surprisingly smooth.

After the plane took off, the flight attendants quickly brought out the food cart.

Shen Ling'er paused for a moment when she saw the food cart.

Yang Mi noticed and asked softly, "Thinking about yesterday?"

Shen Ling'er nodded.

"A little."

Yang Mi's heart tightened.

But the next second, Shen Ling'er said seriously, "The food truck from yesterday slid more smoothly than this one."

Yang Mi: "..."

Zhao Lei, who was in the front row, almost couldn't hold it in when he heard this.

"Teacher Ling'er, your focus is..."

Shen Ling'er looked at him.

"Whether the food cart wheels are easy to use is very important."

Zhao Lei nodded immediately.

"Yes, yesterday was indeed very important."

The flight attendant couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

She clearly knew about what happened yesterday, and her eyes showed a distinct respect for Shen Ling'er.

She spoke softly when handing the children's meal to Shen Ling'er.

"Little friend, this is your meal."

Shen Ling'er took it.

"Thank you, sister."

The flight attendant smiled.

"You're welcome."

She paused for a moment, then couldn't help but say, "You're really amazing."

Shen Ling'er opened the lunchbox and glanced at the chicken rice and fruit inside.

Then he looked up and said seriously, "The food was alright."

The flight attendant was taken aback.

He then burst out laughing.

Zhao Lei immediately turned towards the camera. Although it wasn't a live broadcast, the cameraman was still filming behind-the-scenes footage.

"Dear viewers, when Teacher Ling'er is praised, her first reaction is to evaluate the airplane meal."

Shen Ling'er corrected, "I know she praised me. But you should also tell me whether the food was good or not."

Zhao Lei nodded.

"Understood. One cannot be careless in either conduct or food."

Shen Ling'er nodded in satisfaction.

"That's a good point."

Zhao Lei's face instantly lit up with pride.

"My language skills have improved again today!"

Bai Sisi smiled and shook her head.

"You're really living off her approval now."

Zhao Lei said seriously, "This is called high-quality feedback."

Zhou Chen, sitting in the back, couldn't help but laugh as he listened.

"Zhao Lei has indeed grown up."

Chen Hao nodded.

"He used to just argue, but now he'll reflect on things."

Shen Ling'er took a bite of her food and calmly added, "Even after we finished summarizing, we still argued."

Zhao Lei: "..."

A low chuckle filled the cabin.

This laughter was completely different from yesterday's.

Yesterday was a release after the tension.

Today was truly relaxing.

After finishing their meal, the children quickly became sleepy.

Zhao Mengmeng fell asleep leaning against Bai Sisi's chest.

Zhou Xiaoyu hugged the small blanket, nodding her head little by little.

Chen Doudou wanted to order another bread, but she couldn't last ten minutes before she fell asleep next to Lin Jia.

Shen Ling'er was still awake.

She took out her small ledger, turned to a blank page, and slowly drew a diagram of airplane seats.

Yang Mi looked down and saw it, her heart softened, and she felt a little sad.

"Ling'er, why are you still drawing this?"

Shen Ling'er said, "I won't think about it anymore after I finish drawing."

Yang Mi was slightly taken aback.

Shen Ling'er held a small pencil and carefully drew the aisle, food cart, seats, and service counter.

Yesterday was too chaotic, and I still have some loose ends in my head.

"Once you draw it, it won't stay in your mind."

Yang Mi's eyes suddenly felt hot.

She gently hugged her daughter.

"Then draw slowly."

Shen Ling'er nodded.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm not scared."

She paused for a moment, then said, "There are some things that need to be sorted out before your mind can be at peace."

Zhao Lei, who had been listening quietly in the front row, surprisingly refrained from making any jokes this time.

Bai Sisi also quieted down.

Zhou Chen glanced at the small ledger and said softly, "She really knows how to organize herself."

Yang Mi gently patted Shen Ling'er's head.

"Her father used to be like that too. When faced with complicated matters, he wouldn't rush to speak, but would first try to untangle the threads."

This time, no one pressed Shen Fei for answers.

Hearing those words only added another layer of imagination to my mind.

It's remarkable that they can teach such a young child to be both calm and resourceful.

It also taught her how to calm down after the danger.

The man who had never shown his face seemed to have gained another layer of shadow in everyone's hearts.

It's not an exaggerated mystery.

Rather, it's a very deep and stable sense of presence.

Zhao Lei remained silent for a while before whispering, "No wonder."

Shen Ling'er looked up at him.

"No wonder what?"

Zhao Lei immediately shook his head.

"It's nothing, I'll be quiet."

Shen Ling'er looked at him for two seconds.

"You're actually a little smarter this time."

Zhao Lei's eyes lit up instantly.

But he managed to hold back from shouting, and only whispered to Bai Sisi, "Did you hear me?"

Bai Sisi couldn't stop laughing.

"I heard you, don't wake the child."

Zhao Lei nodded vigorously.

The plane finally arrived in China smoothly.

When we landed, a round of applause rang out in the cabin.

Some passengers arrived safely.

Some people recognized the production crew and Shen Ling'er.

As Yang Mi disembarked, a young woman passed by and couldn't help but whisper, "Ling'er, welcome home."

Shen Ling'er looked up at her.

"Thanks."

The girl was both nervous and excited.

"You are really amazing."

Shen Ling'er thought for a moment.

"You have good taste too."

The girl paused for a second, then burst into laughter.

"Yes, yes, I have a great eye!"

Zhao Lei couldn't help but sigh.

"Teacher Ling'er now has her own unique style when it comes to praising people."

Shen Ling'er looked at him.

"If someone praises me, I can also praise her for being good at praising."

Zhao Lei nodded seriously.

"This logic is very sound."

Airport exit.

As soon as the production crew came out, they saw that a lot of media and fans were already waiting outside.

The plane incident had been brewing all day, and everyone wanted to know the production crew's first reaction upon their safe return.

Airport security personnel maintained order in advance.

The director also repeatedly reminded everyone not to crowd.

Even so, the sound of camera shutters continued to ring out.

"Yang Mi! Ling'er!"

"Teacher Zhao Lei, look this way!"

"Ling'er, is what happened on the plane yesterday true?"

"Ling'er, were you scared at the time?"

Yang Mi instinctively pulled Shen Ling'er to his side.

Shen Ling'er was being led by her mother, her little face still looking cool.

Facing a barrage of cameras, she neither hid nor showed excitement; she simply glanced up at the reporters.

Zhao Lei tried to block it, but the reporter shouted again.

"Mr. Zhao Lei, are your pants dry now?"

Zhao Lei paused in his steps.

The entire room fell silent for a second.

Bai Sisi almost couldn't hold back.

Shen Ling'er looked up at Zhao Lei and said earnestly, "You see, they care about you too."

Zhao Lei: "..."

The media section burst into laughter.

The tense atmosphere was instantly dispelled by those words.

Zhao Lei clutched his chest.

"Thank you everyone for your concern, my pants are dry now."

The reporters laughed even harder.

Someone then asked Shen Ling'er, "Ling'er, how did you come up with those ideas yesterday?"

Shen Ling'er stopped and glanced at the reporter.

Yang Mi gently squeezed her hand.

Shen Ling'er didn't make it sound too mysterious.

She answered earnestly, "Because there are only so many things you can use on an airplane. Water can be distracting, blankets can trip you up, food carts can bump your legs, juice can be slippery, and cushions are round so they can roll around." "When bad guys are in a hurry, they won't see every little thing clearly. If we make them make a few mistakes, the adults will have an opportunity."

The reporters were stunned for a moment.

She spoke so calmly.

It's all too clear.

There is no exaggeration.

There was no boasting.

It's like explaining a very ordinary question.

But the more it's like this, the more it sends chills down your spine.

One reporter couldn't help but murmur, "Is this really a five-year-old child?"

Shen Ling'er heard this and looked at him.

"A five-year-old can see things clearly."

reporter:"……"

Zhao Lei immediately responded.

"Did you all hear that? This sentence could be a title."

Shen Ling'er frowned.

"Don't teach them how to work on the spot."

Zhao Lei immediately shut up.

The media burst into laughter again.

That evening.

After the footage of the program crew's airport interviews upon their return to China was released, it caused another uproar online.

In particular, Shen Ling'er's explanation about water, blankets, food carts, juice, and cushions was repeatedly forwarded by netizens.

"She explained it so clearly! It's not metaphysics, it's just observation and judgment."

"A five-year-old can see things clearly, that's so shocking."

"I used to think she was a genius little devil, but now I realize she's a logic little devil."

"The scariest thing about her is that she never talks nonsense, but this time she explained it very clearly, and I understood it completely after listening to her, which I would never have thought of at the time."

"Understanding and being able to do are two different things. In that situation on an airplane, even adults would be terrified."

"Ling'er didn't rush it herself; she let everyone do a small thing that they could do. That's truly amazing."

"Did Zhao Lei's pants get dry? Hahahaha!"

Zhao Lei: My pants are dry, but my trending topic isn't.

"Hilarious! Ling'er said the media is very concerned about Zhao Lei, and Zhao Lei's expression looks like he's been hurt a second time."

Sports bloggers also shared it.

"She watches football by looking at space and people, and she does the same on an airplane. The underlying ability is the same; only the setting has changed."

"This child will learn anything very quickly in the future because she grasps the structure first."

"Don't forget, she's also skilled in lock picking, drawing, medicine, and grappling; this isn't just a single talent."

"The more I think about it, the more outrageous it seems. Is the production team filming a parent-child reality show, or a documentary observing geniuses?"

On the other side...

After returning to their hotel in China, the production team finally gave all the guests a half-day off.

No need for live streaming.

No recording is required.

No need to rush.

Everyone's first reaction was to go to sleep.

Only Chen Doudou's first reaction was to eat a late-night snack.

Shen Ling'er sat in the room, and Yang Mi prepared a bath for her.

The little girl sat on the edge of the bed, swinging her legs, holding the now softer red dragon balloon in her hands.

Yang Mi walked over and gently touched her little face.

"Finally back."

Shen Ling'er nodded.

"Yeah, home is still the more comfortable direction."

Yang Mi smiled.

"You even know which direction is comfortable?"

Shen Ling'er said earnestly, "I know. I'll feel more relaxed on the way home."

Yang Mi's heart softened.

Just as she was about to speak, her phone suddenly rang.

It was a message from Shen Fei.

It's just a very simple sentence.

"Are you home yet?"

Yang Mi glanced at it, and his eyes softened instantly.

She handed the phone to Shen Ling'er to look at.

Shen Ling'er's eyes brightened slightly. She picked up her phone and slowly began to type.

"arrive."

After thinking for a moment, he added another sentence.

"The airplane food is so-so, but the food during the emergency landing is alright."

Yang Mi: "..."

A few seconds later, Shen Fei replied to the message.

I'll make it for you when I get back.

Shen Ling'er's cool expression softened a little.

She returned the phone to Yang Mi and nodded in satisfaction.

"That's fine."

Yang Mi looked at her and couldn't help but laugh.

"Your dad says cooking is more effective than any reward."

Shen Ling'er was very serious.

"Because he cooks well."

Yang Mi patted her little head.

"Take a shower, then go to bed early."

Holding the little dragon balloon, Shen Ling'er suddenly asked, "Mommy, can we take this home?"

"Of course."

"Although it's a little soft."

Yang Mi said with a smile, "Even if it's soft, it can still be carried."

Shen Ling'er looked down at Xiao Long.

"Then my dad can check why it's leaking air."

Yang Mi: "..."

She finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You're still thinking about this?"

Shen Ling'er nodded.

"It helped save balloons in the United States, so it deserves some credit."

Yang Mi's eyes softened even more.

"Okay, take it home."

Outside the window, the city lights shone quietly.

The topic is still trending online.

The program's editors are still working through the night to organize the footage.

Zhao Lei was still in his room, heartbroken over the "wet pants emoji".

The director also wrote down a new work priority in his memo.

"The next job experience must be relaxed, safe, and the meals must be confirmed in advance."

Shen Ling'er had already finished showering and crawled into bed.

She yawned, and before closing her eyes, she didn't forget to say to Yang Mi, "Mom, don't eat breakfast too late tomorrow."

Yang Mi tucked the blanket around her and whispered, "I know."

Shen Ling'er then felt relieved and went to sleep.
