Chapter 673: Chapter 671 It’s Chuanchuan_1

"But what about your childhood sweetheart?" Director Carl asked again.

Reyno had a girl who liked him very much since they were children.

Reyno shrugged: "You know, I’ve always only seen her as a sister."

"But she obviously doesn’t see you as a brother." Director Carl said.

Reyno spread his hands: "That’s her business. Just like my love for Xia Ningxing, it’s my own affair."

Director Carl: "..." That sounds somewhat reasonable!

In the subsequent shoots, Reyno no longer made his affection for Xia Ningxing so obvious.

Xia Ningxing, in turn, continued to play dumb, acting as if she didn’t know anything.

Also, the video of Reyno rushing to the rescue was cleanly deleted by Director Carl, so the outside world only had some insignificant gossip that did not affect the reputation of either of them.

The filming of the movie lasted a total of one year.

On the day of the wrap, Jiang Miaomiao hugged Xia Ningxing and said, "Ningxing, when do you plan to return to Star Shine?"

"If all goes well, it should be tomorrow. There will be a private jet to pick up me and my assistant," Xia Ningxing replied.

"So soon!" Upon hearing this, Jiang Miaomiao couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed: "I really don’t want to part with you."

"It’s okay, UA is just a few hours away from Star Shine by plane. If you have time, you can come to Star Shine to visit me. I’m always available for you." Xia Ningxing patted her head, treating her like a younger sister.

"That’s true!" Jiang Miaomiao nodded.

Transportation is very convenient in this era, and traveling abroad is easy.

Then Jiang Miaomiao clasped the chip necklace around her neck: "I plan to repair my robot as soon as possible."

"Do you have a company that will help you repair it?" Xia Ningxing asked with concern.

If not, she could go to Lu Tingli’s company.

His company had recently launched a new project on intelligent robots, with many experts on board. Plus, given that he himself was reincarnated from the future, it should not be difficult to repair her robot.

However, before Xia Ningxing could suggest this, Jiang Miaomiao said, "A friend of mine has already contacted a technology company for me. They said they are confident they can repair it."

Upon hearing that, Xia Ningxing was reassured and didn’t say anything more.

"Then I wish you can see your robot soon," Xia Ningxing patted her shoulder.

"Thanks for your good wishes, Ningxing. When he comes back, I’ll definitely bring him to Star Shine to visit you!" Imagining that scene, Jiang Miaomiao’s tender little face showed a warm and expectant smile.

Xia Ningxing responded: "Okay, I’ll be waiting for you two to come visit. When you do, I’ll make sure to show you around Star Shine."

"It’s a promise!" Jiang Miaomiao extended her fist.

Xia Ningxing bumped fists with her: "It’s a promise!"

Right after their fist bump, Jiang Miaomiao suddenly winked at her.

Just as Xia Ningxing was wondering what was going on, she saw the tall and imposing Reyno walking over with a glass of wine.

"Senior," Xia Ningxing greeted politely out of courtesy.

Reyno raised his glass to her, the light gleaming in his brown eyes: "Xia Ningxing, I’ve had a great time working with you. You’re a very good actress, extremely dedicated; I’ve never seen any female star work as hard as you do. I toast to you."

"Thank you for the compliment, Senior. You are very dedicated as well. I toast to you," Xia Ningxing lifted her glass in return.

It must be said that Reyno, this superstar, truly lives up to his reputation.

He works far too hard when acting!

After drinking, Reyno looked at her and added: "If I go to Star Shine for a visit, can I come to see you?"

"I probably won’t be able to. I need to deal with company matters, and I’ll be very busy. However, I can introduce you to a very experienced tour guide," Xia Ningxing said in a gentle tone, rejecting him without causing embarrassment or offense.

"Thank you," Reyno couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his lip.

If he hadn’t accidentally overheard her conversation with Jiang Miaomiao just now, he would have really believed she would be busy.

So, she has all the time when Jiang Miaomiao needs her, but she’s busy when he does?

Well, that stings!

"You’re welcome," Xia Ningxing smiled, her smile was very faint, carrying both distance and politeness.

Reyno knew that someone as smart as her must have noticed his admiration, hence she was rejecting him through her actions, setting clear boundaries between them.

At this moment, Reyno felt both bitter and unwilling.

But the thought that her marriage might not last long revived his spirits.

As long as he waited patiently, there would eventually come a day when he would get his chance, right?

...

Upon returning to her home country, Xia Ningxing had not yet reached the threshold of her house when she saw a little creature with short legs cheerfully running towards her from far away.

The little creature drew closer and closer, transforming from a blurry figure into a clearer image in Xia Ningxing’s eyes.

It was Chuanchuan!

Her Son!

Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but feel tears well up in her eyes.

During more than a year of filming, she stayed mostly in UA and could only see her son’s growth through video calls.

Heaven knows how much she missed him.

"Mommy! Mommy!"

Chuanchuan crashed into her legs, wrapping his little arms around her tightly, his little nose eagerly sniffing the pleasant scent on her.

A year had passed, and Chuanchuan had grown from a toddler who stumbled as he walked and stuttered as he spoke, into a little creature who could hop, jump, run, and speak fluidly.

"Mommy, I missed you so much!" He lifted his handsome little face, looking up at her, his dark, sparkling eyes filled with a child’s longing for his mother.

Xia Ningxing’s tears finally fell, her heart ached with sourness, and she found it hard to breathe as if a large hand was gripping her throat, making her sob uncontrollably as she bent down to hug him.

"I’m sorry, Chuanchuan. Mommy won’t act anymore. I won’t leave you again. Mommy missed you too." She buried her head in his tender neck, her warm tears continuously falling onto his skin.

Even if she hadn’t won the highest award for this film, it was enough to make her an international star.

Rounding up, she had achieved her dream. There was no need to struggle in this industry that she had grown tired of anymore.

From now on, all her time would be devoted to accompanying him as he grows up, not missing a single moment of his life.

"Mommy, don’t cry, don’t cry. Chuanchuan isn’t blaming you. Chuanchuan just missed you too much," Chuanchuan said, seeing the redness in her eyes and quickly reaching out to wipe her tears away.

"Okay, Mommy won’t cry." Xia Ningxing quickly forced a smile and wiped her tears.

Lu Tingli had already stepped forward to dry her tears with the pad of his finger, then squinted his eyes and stared at Chuanchuan with annoyance: "This little rascal really is annoying, making my wife cry."

Chuanchuan pouted in grievance: "I didn’t mean to..."

"Lu, don’t blame the child," Xia Ningxing glared at him.

Lu Tingli: "..."

So only the son is the son, and the husband is what, picked up from the trash?
