Lin Ruoxi gently said, "Min Juan, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't be so reserved."
Min Juan smiled gratefully. She thought to herself that such a rich family could treat a little nanny from a mountain village so peacefully. The old master had indeed chosen the right person.
"When the master left, he was in a hurry, but he said that if he didn't come back within a month, then Lanlan would be completely raised by the two of you. In the future, he would no longer ask about Lanlan's matters, and Lanlan would truly be Miss Lin's daughter."
"Really?" Lin Ruoxi's face lit up, but then she asked with a strange expression, "Could it be that Lanlan's grandfather went to do something dangerous?"
Min Juan shook her head helplessly, "I don't know about that. I can't ask too much about the master's matters."
Yang Cheng looked at Lin Ruoxi's excited face and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It seemed that this woman was worried that Lanlan's grandfather would not come back.
However, it was hard for Yang Cheng to understand why Lin Ruoxi valued this little girl so much and treated her as her own. Even if he liked children's personalities, this was too much!
Lanlan, on the other hand, was drinking her orange juice and listening to the adults talking. She didn't interrupt and kept sucking on the juice with her cheeks puffed up. She finished the big glass in no time and didn't care about anything else.
Lin Ruoxi touched her daughter's soft hair and felt that the more she looked at this pink and jade-carved child, the cuter she felt. She couldn't help but pinch Lanlan's little face, while Lanlan smiled sweetly at her mother.
Just as Lin Ruoxi was about to ask Lanlan if she wanted to continue drinking and eating, the phone on the table rang.
Lin Ruoxi picked it up, looked at the number, and said to Yang Cheng, "It's from home."
Yang Cheng nodded, "Why did you pick up the phone and report to me?"
Lin Ruoxi blushed and wondered why she told Yang Cheng, as if she was worried that the man would misunderstand.
"Hello, Mom, what's wrong?" Lin Ruoxi picked up the phone.
"Ruoxi, you should be with Yang Cheng."
"Yes, we just finished dinner. Mom, I have something to do …"
"Aiya, don't talk about it. Hurry up and come back with Yang Cheng. Hui Lin is back, and Director Yu Shuo is here too. They have something to discuss with you." Guo Xuehua said happily.
It didn't sound like a bad thing, so Lin Ruoxi agreed and told Yang Cheng about it.
"Hui Lin is back? Is her tour over? "Yang Cheng asked.
Lin Ruoxi thought for a while and said, "I think so. I remember that her tour in Japan and the US was canceled because of the public opinion in China."
Yang Chen nodded in realization. He occasionally saw the news, and there were indeed a lot of reports about the maritime disputes between Japan and the US and China. At the heart of the storm, it was indeed not suitable for Huilin, who was the hot little queen of China, to hold a concert in those two places.
This kind of news would only attract the public's attention. Yang Cheng didn't have the mood to care about it. There would be no result in the end, unless there was a war.
If there was a war, Yang Cheng would be happy. He had a lot of weapons in his possession, and they could all be put to good use. War was the most profitable thing. As long as they didn't provoke him, he would be able to make a fortune quietly.
Minjuan said excitedly, "Miss Lin, Miss Hui Lin is the famous singer, Hui Lin, right?"
Lin Ruoxi nodded, "Minjuan, you know her too?"
"Of course! I thought she looked familiar the last time I saw her, but I didn't believe it was her. After I went home, I thought about it carefully. Miss Lin is the CEO of Yu Lei International, and Miss Hui Lin is from Yu Lei Entertainment! I regret not asking her for an autograph. She sings so well! " Minjuan was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears. "Every time she sings a sad song, I always think of the days in my hometown, and I can't help but cry."
Lin Ruoxi and Yang Cheng looked at each other. They didn't expect Hui Lin to be so influential. Even a nanny who took care of a little girl all day knew her songs, and she was such a hardcore fan.
"Ask Hui Lin to give you an autograph when we get back. But don't make it too awkward for her. She is like family to us." Yang Cheng smiled.
Min Juan hurriedly nodded. Being able to see her idol from time to time was enough for her.
Because of the traffic jam, it took them almost forty minutes to reach home.
When they entered the living room, they saw Guo Xuehua and Mother Wang were already chatting with Director Yu Shuo. Hui Lin was chatting with Zhenxiu, whom they hadn't seen for a while.
Although the school reopened in early September, the military training started first. Zhenxiu lived in Zhonghai, so she only needed to attend the training during the day and go home at night.
When Yang Cheng saw the students at home, he remembered that he hadn't visited Zhenxiu since the school reopened. The little girl had been handling everything by herself. As her 'guardian', he had to make some time to check on Zhenxiu, lest Zhenxiu became an honest girl who was bullied by others.
Guo Xuehua and the others were surprised to see the four of them. No one expected that Lanlan and Minjuan, the nanny who had left earlier, would come back.
Guo Xuehua was especially surprised. She was still in Yan Jin at that time and had never seen this little girl before. She looked at Yang Cheng with suspicion.
Yang Cheng shook hands with Director Yu Shuo, while Lin Ruoxi nodded and greeted them. After that, they sat down.
Although Director Yu Shuo felt that the sudden appearance of the little girl made everyone feel strange, he didn't ask much since he was only there to talk about business. He said with a smile, "It's a little presumptuous of me to disturb you at night, but I'm a straightforward person and I don't want to miss such a good opportunity. That's why I'm here to talk about the film collaboration with you two."
Yang Chen recalled that he did mention it before. It seemed like this guy was going to shoot a Xianxia movie. As the best director in Cannes and Tokyo Film Festivals, Yu Shuo was like the sun in the sky. His movie would definitely receive a lot of attention.
"Director Yu wants Hui Er to participate in the movie?"
"How did you know, Mr. Yang? I'm here to talk about it. Recently, I've been busy trying to find the female lead. No matter how hard I look, I can't find a more suitable actress than Miss Lin Hui.
But Miss Lin Hui has been on a world tour. When she heard that her schedule in Japan and the US was canceled, she came here immediately.
Miss Lin Hui said that there's no need to go through the management company. As long as the two of you agree, she can do it, "Yu Shuo said.
Yang Cheng looked at Hui Lin and asked with a smile, "Do you like making movies? It's up to you."
Hui Lin blinked and said hesitantly, "I don't have any professional training and I don't know how to make a movie. I'm worried that I'll mess it up."
"No, no. I've seen Miss Lin Hui's concert. You can get into the mood easily. You just need to change your singing mode to your acting role. With your natural charisma, you'll be able to connect with the female lead. Everything will go smoothly!" Yu Shuo quickly persuaded.
Hui Lin struggled and looked at Lin Ruoxi helplessly.
Lin Ruoxi listened quietly and said in a clear voice, "If that's the case, let's give it a try. Director Yu came to invite you personally. If it doesn't work out, I believe Director Yu won't blame us."
"Mm." Yang Cheng nodded. "But Director Yu, let's make this clear. Hui Er's appearance fee is very high."
Lin Ruoxi rolled her eyes at the man. Nothing had happened yet and he was already raising the fee.
Yu Shuo smiled bitterly. But with Hui Lin's current popularity, it was impossible to give her a newcomer's fee. He might not be able to invite her for anything less than ten million yuan.
After a brief discussion, it was finally confirmed. As for the specifics, they could sign the document after discussing it with the people from the entertainment company. The filming would start in mid-September, so Huilin would have some time to prepare and familiarize herself with the script.
After sending Yu Shuo off, Guo Xuehua, who had been quiet all this while, finally asked, "Yang Cheng, Ruoxi, whose child is this?"
When the adults were talking, Lanlan sat on Min Juan's lap obediently. The little girl who had eaten her fill rubbed her belly and dozed off obediently.
Mother Wang and the rest smiled and explained, "Xuehua, this child is Lanlan. You didn't know her because you weren't here. She's Miss' adopted daughter."
"Adopted daughter?!" Guo Xuehua's mouth was so wide open that an egg could fit in it.
After listening to Wang Ma's recount of the incident, Guo Xuehua was a little upset and said, "Ruoxi, this isn't a good idea. You're still so young, married for less than two years, and you haven't even had a child. If you adopt a four- or five-year-old child, people will gossip about you."
