The next day.
Dong Xuebing woke up in the morning.
Dong Xuebing was woken up by a phone call. Or more accurately, he was woken up by his daughter's crying when she heard the call.
"Hello?"
"Xuebing."
"Who is it?"
"It's me, Yu Meixia."
"Sister Yu? Ah … I am sleeping now."
"I know. I just want to ask you something."
"Well, go ahead. What's up?"
"Someone wants to hire me to act in a movie. They said I look good in their next movie."
"Acting in a movie? Is it reliable? Don't get scammed again? There are many scammers now. Did they ask you to pay? How much did they pay? "
"They did not ask me to pay. It must be true."
"How do you know it is a film company?"
"Big Sis is already in Beijing. I went to their company to take a look. It's quite big. I also took a look at the producers and investors. I asked my friend to help me check. Their information is also on the website. It's exactly the same as the photos. It's them in person.
"They want you to be the female lead?"
"How come? I think I will be a supporting character."
"That's fine."
"If you say yes, I will go."
"Take a look first. Be smart."
"Ok. I know. Today is the interview, and I don't know if I can pass. If I can pass, I will call you again."
"Why do you want to act in a movie?"
"I cannot rely on you all the time. Qianqian will be entering university next year, and I want to help her pay for her school fees. It's not right for me to keep taking your money."
"Look at you. You don't need to be so polite."
"I am not being polite. It's different."
"Alright, alright. If you want to go, then go."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing yawned and got out of bed. He is not surprised by what Yu Meixia told him. Sister Yu is too pretty and virtuous. Although she does not have any acting skills, she is suitable for the role. She is beautiful, and that's enough. As for why Sister Yu does not want to spend her money, it is because of her pride, and Dong Xuebing can understand.
"Wa!" Little Qian Qian was still crying.
Dong Xuebing quickly hugged his daughter and kissed her a few times. "Little girl, don't cry. Daddy is here. Let's go. It's getting late. Follow Daddy to work." Last night, Dong Xuebing returned home with Qianqian at around 10 am. They did not return to the courtyard house and went straight to the quarters. It was because Fang Wenping was very fond of Qianqian and refused to let go. Qianqian also likes Fang Wenping, and they were very intimate. If it weren't for the fact that Dong Xuebing was still hugging Qianqian, Fang Wenping would still be hugging Qianqian.
…
Nine o'clock.
It was time for work.
This time, Dong Xuebing did not dare to let others look after Qianqian. He carried Qianqian into his office and let her sit on his lap.
"Ah!"
"Daddy!"
"Ya ya! Ah! "
Qianqian is too mischievous and keeps messing around with Dong Xuebing. Qianqian will stretch out her hand to grab all the pens and documents. If you don't give it to me, I will cry! And it was the kind of loud wailing! Dong Xuebing almost wants to hear it from downstairs. Dong Xuebing did not know whether to laugh or cry. He had been coaxing Qianqian for more than an hour. In the end, Dong Xuebing had no choice but to throw Qianqian on the floor and let her play by herself. Anyway, there are no dangerous items in the office, and Dong Xuebing is not worried.
… …
Before noon.
It's almost lunchtime.
Dong Xuebing looked at his watch and saw he had almost finished his work. He laughed and went over to play with his daughter. Dong Xuebing felt proud when he saw his daughter. This little girl is already so pretty when she is young. How beautiful will she be when she grows up? She will surely be a superstar. Just look at the people in the unit. Which one of them does not like Little Qianqian? She is definitely a superstar. Dong Xuebing suddenly remembered Yu Meixia. He wonders how her interview is going.
Let's ask her.
Dong Xuebing called Yu Meixia.
Beep, beep, beep, beep. It rang for a long time, but no one answered.
Dong Xuebing frowned. Yu Meixia had never ignored his calls before. She will pick up after one or two rings. Dong Xuebing guessed she might be on the road outside and did not hear his calls.
About five minutes later.
Ring … ring … ring … Yu Meixia returned.
Dong Xuebing answered. "Hello, Sister Yu. How's the interview? Have you passed? "
But Yu Meixia lowered her voice and said anxiously. "Xuebing, come and fetch Big Sis. I … I …"
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "What's wrong?"
Yu Meixia quickly replied. "Hurry up and fetch me!"
"Where are you?" Dong Xuebing could tell something happened to Sister Yu and got nervous. "What happened? Don't be afraid. I am here!"
Yu Meixia replied meekly. "I am at his company, and there were a lot of interviewees. But during my interview, a middle-aged man, who seems to be an investor, was supervising the interviewee. He … he asked me to try out the scene, and Sis doesn't know what's going on. She said yes, and he said … he wants me to try out the kissing scene … I … I did not agree, and he got angry and scolded Sis. In the end, that investor came up to teach me how to do the kissing scene, and I got scared and ran away. Sis is in their company's female washroom now. I … I don't dare to go out, and I heard someone shouting outside.
"Did he take advantage of you?" Dong Xuebing took a deep breath.
"Not … not yet, so I ran away," Yu Meixia said.
Dong Xuebing is furious. "I still want you to kiss him?! What the hell! Was he tired of living? Every time Dong Xuebing is angry, he will scold Yu Meixia. "Don't be afraid of Sister Yu. I am here! They're f * cking rebelling! "
Yu Meixia whispered. "Xuebing, you … come over quickly!"
"Ok! I will be there soon! Tell me your company's address! " Dong Xuebing quickly took out a notebook and jotted down the address. "Don't be anxious and don't be afraid. Just stay in the washroom and don't go out no matter who calls you. For safety's sake, lock the door. I will be there in ten minutes!"
"Ok … Ok." Yu Meixia is panicking. She is from the countryside and is very honest and weak. She doesn't know what to do when she meets with trouble.
The line ended.
Dong Xuebing kept his phone and looked at Yu Meixia angrily. Among all his friends, Dong Xuebing doted on Yu Meixia the most. Sister Yu might be older than him, but Dong Xuebing has to take care of her. Dong Xuebing bent over and carried Qianqian up. "Qianqian, I am not playing with you anymore. Daddy has something to attend to. I will go out now!"
Dong Xuebing walked out of the office.
"Director Dong, you …" They could tell Dong Xuebing's expression is not right.
Dong Xuebing did not answer them and asked. "Where is Director Luo?"
Zhang Lili replied. "Director Luo had gone out for an hour and should be back in the afternoon. You … should I call Director Luo and ask her to come back?"
Come back now?
It's too late!
Dong Xuebing did not say anything else and walked out of the office towards Fang Wenping's office. Strangely, Luo Haiting was the one Dong Xuebing trusted the most in the entire unit. She was experienced, and Dong Xuebing trusted her the most to take care of Zhang Lili. But Dong Xuebing was worried about Zhang Lili, who was in the same office as him. Fang Wenping was the one Dong Xuebing disliked the most, but Dong Xuebing trusted her the most. Sometimes, the relationship between people was subtle. Many things, including trust, could not be explained clearly.
Director's office.
Dong Xuebing did not knock and entered the office.
Fang Wenping was talking to one of the leaders in the room, and her face changed when she saw Dong Xuebing barging in without knocking on the door.
The other leader's rank is not as high as Dong Xuebing. He also left after closing the door behind him.
"What is it?" Fang Wenping did not give Dong Xuebing any face.
Dong Xuebing put down his child. "I need to go out. Help me take care of Qianqian."
Fang Wenping said uncertainly, "Do I owe you or your nanny? Why should I care about your business? You are not going to stand on ceremony? "
Dong Xuebing was getting impatient. "I really have something urgent to attend to!"
Fang Wenping replied. "You are not coming back in the afternoon? Then I will mark it down as you skipping work for one day! "
"You can do whatever you want! Anyway, I will let you have your child, ok? "Dong Xuebing replied.
Fang Wenping looked at Dong Xuebing coldly. "Just go!"
Dong Xuebing squatted down and said gently. "I need to go out and cannot take care of you. You will follow Aunt Fang today, ok?"
Xiao Qianqian replied. Dong Xuebing doesn't know if she understood what he said.
Dong Xuebing can't be bothered. "Listen to Aunt Fang and don't be naughty. Dad is leaving!" Dong Xuebing gave his daughter a push.
Little Qian Qian blinked her eyes before she clumsily walked towards Fang Wenping.
The moment Fang Wenping saw her, she stood up to welcome her. The reluctant expression on her face instantly turned into a gentle one. She bent over and picked her up. She kissed Little Qianqian's cheeks a few times, one on each side. "Ignore your dad. Come play in Auntie's office."
"Ah!"
"Ah! Good girl! "
"Hahaha! Ah! Ah! "
Xiao Qianqian quickly started playing with Fang Wenping.
Dong Xuebing was relieved and walked out of the office. When he turned around, his eyes darkened.
