Chapter 127: Chapter 127 [Extra Chapter for Votes!]
As Han Jiangxue uttered these words, she was also puzzled in her heart. An Xi had said just that afternoon that she was in a hidden marriage and hardly anyone in the industry knew that she was the Gu family’s daughter-in-law.
How come Director Fei found out about it in the blink of an eye.
Director Fei laughed, "We’ve already contacted her agent. Dongsheng Daily Chemicals is one of the sponsors for our children’s variety show."
It had only been finalized that afternoon.
Getting Dongsheng Daily Chemicals to sponsor was something Director Fei hadn’t even dared to dream about before.
Hearing this, Han Jiangxue smiled awkwardly, "Oh, I see. That’s good. She’s my friend so I came to ask you about it."
Director Fei’s face still bore a smile resembling that of Maitreya Buddha, "Hmm, Teacher Han has always been well-liked in the industry."
There was a hint of almost imperceptible sarcasm in his words.
Director Fei knew that during the first episode’s recording, Han Jiangxue and Wu Yuerou’s relationship was very good.
Now that An Hao had taken a fall that morning, here she was discussing An Xi’s participation in the children’s variety show late at night, without giving any consideration to Wu Yuerou.
Such a person was indeed frightening!
In reality, An Xi didn’t need Han Jiangxue to speak to the director at all. After An Xi’s mother-in-law had finished chatting with Madam Shen that afternoon and then turned to pick up her grandson Gu Xiaoran from school, she had someone reach out to Lemon Channel.
An Xi wanted to take her child to the variety show simply to ride on the coattails of its popularity.
But after being provoked by Madam Shen that afternoon, Madam Gu thought that Shen Yibo, that little chubby boy, wasn’t even as cute as her grandson. Plus, after picking up Gu Xiaoran, Madam Gu asked him if he wanted to join his mother on TV to record a show, and the little guy excitedly agreed.
Since her grandson had agreed, the decisively efficient Madam Gu immediately sprang into action and even went out of her way to persuade An Xi to take the child to the program as well.
This came as a pleasant surprise to An Xi.
She had previously considered asking the Gu family for help, but ultimately, she was afraid of being looked down upon by the Gu family.
After all, as her cousin, it was effortless for An Hao to get her on a variety show, but Wu Yuerou, her cousin-in-law, was not an easy person to deal with.
In a rich and noble family like the Gu Family, she naturally wanted to hide her less flattering background as much as possible to save some face for herself.
When Han Jiangxue returned home, it was already late, Shen Zhaonan hadn’t come back, and Shen Yibo had gone to sleep.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
After washing up in her room, she checked the time on her mobile phone – it was already past 11 p.m. She picked up her phone to call Shen Zhaonan.
The call didn’t go through, it was switched off on the other end.
Seeing this, she didn’t bother anymore.
Thinking about having to face her mother-in-law the next day, she directly went to sleep.
Shen Zhaonan had been entertaining guests outside until 10 p.m. and was preparing to go home when he bumped into Cheng Shaoqing and a few other second-generation rich kids from Jiangcheng. He would not miss such an opportunity.
He directly called on Cheng Shaoqing and the others to continue drinking...
...
Early in the morning, Ye Zhenzhen felt drowsy and noticed that today’s bed felt unlike usual. She felt wrapped in something comfy and warm.
In the chill of winter, this feeling inside the quilt was the most pleasant.
Ye Zhenzhen moved slightly in the quilt, then turned over. Groping in a daze, guided by her own sensation, she felt that the touch at her fingertips was somewhat unusual...
Her groggy brain immediately became alert, and her phoenix eyes opened as a result.
Had she just followed a man’s face, touching his earlobe?
"Ye Zhenzhen!"
Ye Zhenzhen looked up, and the man’s handsome face loomed close before her eyes. His eyes were not even open. This...
Had she woken him up?
She couldn’t lose her composure, no matter how flustered she felt inside.
In the quilt, Ye Zhenzhen moved, trying to get out of the man’s embrace and maintain a proper distance.
However, as soon as she moved her leg, she realized something was off...
This is seriously awkward to the max!
Ye Zhenzhen’s fair face instantly reddened as if on fire...
Ah, such a tactical error!
I shouldn’t have stayed over last night.
"Don’t move!" the man’s voice was now several degrees lower than before, husky and sexy.
Ye Zhenzhen indeed stopped moving; one should learn to assess the situation and act accordingly at the right time.
But by not moving, she couldn’t sleep like this either. After such a commotion, she was wide awake and unable to fall back asleep.
She blinked, her dark eyes moving slightly, and cleared her throat softly, "Why haven’t you gone to work yet?"
The man had been leaving early in the morning the past few days.
"It’s still early, sleep a bit more."
Just a second before the woman began tossing and turning, he had checked the time; it was not yet 5 o’clock.
He had hardly slept for several hours.
And now, holding the soft body of the woman in his arms, sleepiness actually began to creep over him...
The room was pitch-dark; Ye Zhenzhen glanced at the floor-to-ceiling windows tightly covered by curtains and couldn’t see a sliver of light.
Perhaps, it really was still early.
Before long, she drifted back into slumber.
When Ye Zhenzhen woke up again, the man was no longer by her side.
Ye Zhenzhen was dazed for a moment, her thoughts involuntarily returning to the suffocating and awkward scene when she woke up in the middle of the night. Fortunately, she was always a sound sleeper and could stay asleep until the man went to work.
Otherwise, she really wouldn’t know how to face the situation had she woken up again...
After Ye Zhenzhen freshened up and came downstairs, Xiao Chen was having breakfast in the dining room with Old Master Song and Madam Song.
Madam Song smiled warmly, "Zhenzhen, you’re up, why not sleep a little longer?"
Ye Zhenzhen smiled slightly, "Yeah, I agreed to take Xiao Chen to school yesterday, and I almost overslept."
"It’s no problem; you can sleep in more. I can take him," Madam Song offered.
Song Yuchen chuckled, "I knew Mom wouldn’t forget."
They had just been discussing having grandma take Xiao Chen to school, which had made him a bit unhappy.
Now seeing Ye Zhenzhen come down, he ate his breakfast much faster.
When Song Jinze left for work in the morning, exhaustion was evident on his handsome face. Old Master Song and Madam Song noticed it and couldn’t help but smile happily.
At breakfast, seeing that Ye Zhenzhen hadn’t come down yet, both tacitly refrained from asking the servants to wake her up.
They thought, the kids had a tough night; resting a bit more would be good.
Ye Zhenzhen joined everyone at the dining table for breakfast.
Considering Xiao Chen would have breakfast at school again, Madam Song didn’t let him eat too much.
By the time Ye Zhenzhen finished breakfast, there was still plenty of time, so she and Madam Song took Xiao Chen out, dropping him off at kindergarten.
Once everyone had left the house, Old Master Song instructed the kitchen to stew some soup, so Ye Zhenzhen could come back for lunch.
On the way, Ye Zhenzhen remembered Liu Rui asking about her appearance on the kids’ variety show and, smiling, she asked Xiao Chen, "Xiao Chen, would you like to be on a variety show again?"
Song Yuchen nodded enthusiastically, "Yes!"
Because that would mean he could play with Ye Zhenzhen every day!
Madam Song, sitting beside her, expressed interest, "Are you going to be on a variety show again soon?"
Ye Zhenzhen nodded, "The kid’s variety show is going to film its second episode."
"That’s wonderful. When you guys are filming, I can watch it live." Madam Song smiled happily.
