This show has a similar premise to Contrast Team in a Dad & Baby Show. Basically about a child brought to a livestreaming show with a celebrity/entertainer.Our child protag is a 4 year old girl named An An who is an orphan (or so they think, initially). She is then sent to participate in a livestream show where new parents take care of kids. Which is where she meets the FL and ML. Or her parents.First of all, I question why the orphanage would send a child to do this as I don't think the exposure is good.Anyway, so An An goes to this show where she meets Mo Sui and Gu Yicheng, her parents. She has dreams where things go badly for them in the "original novel", and An An tries to change things. She doesn't do big things to change stuff, just small ones like telling her mum not to drink, and telling the dad to pursue the mum instead of letting her ghost him, etc. So it's kinda cute.I really liked the part where her presence healed the FL from her pain of losing her child. And both of them wanted to adopt her. It would've been great if the story remained that way but it then went on to some drama whereby she's actually their biological daughter but something happened and she was sent to the orphanage, like in the summary.In fact, when they were searching for their bio daughter when they had a hint that bio daughter wasn't dead, I was sad. I was imagining a parallel universe where An An wasn't their bio daughter, and they did not focus on her once they had a bio daughter. But I guess in a perfect novel world, she'll obviously end up being their bio daughter.The story then has a few plotlines here and there that involved family struggles, kidnapping, cheating spouse. It's all very boring as the antagonist are dealt with very quickly and the focus is on how cute An An is.One aspect that I really liked is Ruan Qingqing. She also had the dreams in which she's the female lead and she'll get a happy ending. But she soon realizes things aren't what they seem. She's brave enough to leave that Huo jerk to have a better life for her daughter and herself. I really applaud her for it, I do hope she'll have a good ending but it isn't really mentioned.Jiang Yuge is another great character. It's really sad what happened to her but I like that there are strong women in this novel that fight for what's right for them.All in all, a nice casual read to pass the time that involves a lot of childcare and some romance between the leads as they reconcile. The personalities of the FL and ML are also interesting.
