While passing by the tea table, Gong Yu extracted two pieces of paper from the paper-drawing box. He went straight to sit on the sofa and placed Niannian on his thigh. He wiped off her tears and snots gently and coaxed her tenderly, "Lovely Niannian, don't cry. Shall I play with you?"
Niannian said while sniffling, "Uncle Gong... will... play with Niannian... all the time... will you..."
Gong Yu nodded gently and continued to coax her tenderly, "Well, as long as you don't cry and behave well, I'll play with you once I'm free. Don't cry, Niannian."
Niannian nodded her head gently and sobbed as she said, "Let... Let's... make... a pinky promise..."
Then, she reached out her pudgy hand to him with four fingers bending and the pinkie stretching. Gong Yu stared blankly at her and his face hardened. Then, he followed Niannian to hook her pinkie.
Niannian smiled and continued to sob as she said, "Let's... make a centennial... pinky promise..."
After making the pinky promise, Niannian stretched out her thumb and made a seal with Gong Yu's. Then she laughed cheerfully.
Seeing the stern-faced Gong Yu coax Niannian patiently and tenderly, the three people nearby were surprised. They doubted if he was the stern-faced Gong Yu and wondered if he was changed radically. From his gentle look, they almost believed that they were actually father and daughter. He became a caring guy, shining with soft light, which was extraordinarily brilliant.
Seeing Niannian stop crying and Gong Yu's tenderness, Yun Muxi was quite confused and stupefied.
Gu Yuxuan looked at Yun Muxi meaningfully.
Tong Nan watched Gong Yu obsessively and muttered, "Wow, the handsome guy is so charming. He looks so kind to the child... I'm shocked at it. The more I look at him, the more I like him."
Yun Muxi and Gu Yuxuan glanced at Tong Nan with amazement.
Gu Yuxuan was late to catch on but now she realized that there was one more person here. She seized Tong Nan up with curiosity and shouted with astonishment, "Xiao Nan, are you Tong Nan?"
Tong Nan was awakened by Gu Yuxuan from obsession. She looked back to Gu Yuxuan, sized her up, and excitedly shouted, "Sister Xuanxuan!" Then, she jumped on Gu Yuxuan enthusiastically, gave her a big hug and kissed on her cheek.
Gu Yuxuan was also extremely excited and hugged Tong Nan.
Gu Yuxuan said surprisingly, "Xiao Nan, I haven't seen you for a long time and you've turned into such a beautiful woman. I'm so jealous. Both you and Xiao Xi want to discourage me, right? I can't wait to make a plastic surgery, otherwise, I feel ashamed to stand by you."
Tong Nan said jokingly, "Sister Xuanxuan, you're so cute. Meanwhile, since Sister Xiao Xi is here, no one dares to say herself beautiful. I will not catch up with her even if I become more beautiful in a few years."
Yun Muxi looked at them, shook her head helplessly as she went to the kitchen with shopping bags.
Gu Yuxuan shouted at Xiao Xi hurriedly, "Xiao Xi, let me help you." She said to Tong Nan, "Xiao Nan, please sit down. I'm going to help Xiao Xi cook."
Tong Nan went to the sofa and sat down. She stared at Gong Yu intently and asked, "Handsome, I haven't known your name yet."
Gong Yu rebelled at Tong Nan because she looked as if she would pounce on him at next second. Thus, he ignored her and remained indifferent, holding Niannian in his arms.
Tong Nan was not angry, instead, she liked Gong Yu more because she thought he had a unique personality.
Niannian blinked her big eyes, looking at Tong Nan innocently, and involuntarily said, "Uncle Gong's name is Gong Yu."
Tong Nan accosted Gong Yu and said, "Brother Yu, you treat a child so kindly. Do you like children very much?"
Gong Yu shot Tong Nan an angry glance and his face looked colder. He hated to be called Brother Yu by her. He felt it was too intimate and made he dislike her more.
She did not care at all and continued saying, "Brother Yu, what do you do?"
Instead of answering, Gong Yu said, "Niannian, let's go somewhere else, okay?"
Niannian was very happy and took him to her bedroom, which had a small balcony. Yun Muxi changed it into a small world for Niannian. There were thick mats on the floor and one-meter-high shelves against the wall, which were stacked with her toys and picture books. The toys, which she just played with Gu Yuxuan, were still on the floor.
She took him to the small balcony and sat down on the mat, saying pleasantly, "Uncle Gong, here is my small world. All these are my toys and books. What do you want to play?"
Gong Yu was confused at these things and spoke softly to her, "Niannian, what do you want to play? I'll play with you."
Niannian titled her small head and thought for a while. She took out her playhouse kit and said, "Uncle Gong, can you play house with me. I want to play house."
Gong Yu looked at those strange little things and spoke gently to her, "Niannian, I don't know how to play. Can you teach me?"
Niannian watched Gong Yu innocently with her big watery and shining eyes. She said with a happy smile, "Ok! Uncle Gong plays my father and I play your baby. These are kitchen tools and food. You should cook for me. These are doctor's instruments. You can pretend to take me to hospital. You need to coax me to sleep, read stories for me, and send me to kindergarten."
Gong Yu nodded.
Niannian suddenly stared at Gong Yu until he was stupefied and asked confusedly, "Niannian, what's wrong? Is there any dirt on my face?"
Niannian shook her head lightly and her big eyes glistened. She looked hopeful and asked cautiously, "Uncle Gong, can I call you Daddy Yu?"
Gong Yu was stunned and did not recover for a long time.
Niannian thought Gong Yu did not reply because he could not agree. Then, she lowered her small head and said quietly, "Uncle Gong, it doesn't matter if you don't agree. My mummy said that you would not agree. I'll still call you Uncle Gong." Upon hearing this, Gong Yu became softhearted as if the softest place in his heart was prickled badly with bleeding. Especially when he saw Niannian's miserable appearance, he did not know how to refuse. He answered in a low voice, "Niannian, as long as you're happy, you can call me whatever you want" Suddenly, her little face was as bright as sunshine, which lit up his heart. Gong Yu smiled faintly which was extremely warm. Seeing that, Niannian was happier and asked with surprise, "Daddy Yu, you're so pretty when you smile." Niannian called smoothly. She sounded like a copper bell, echoing in his mind for a long time, which made him look colored and dazzling. Just then, Gu Yuxuan appear
Gong Yu grasped Yun Muxi's wrist and looked at her nervously. He lifted her up with a princess hug and ran to the faucet in the restroom, washing her hand with cold water. Yun Muxi felt a terrible pain with her tears trickling down her cheeks. Her mind went blank, so she paid no attention to Gong Yu's tension and intimacy. Gu Yuxuan was also worried. She ran to the tea table and search things in a medicine cabinet. After finding the medicine for scald, she ran into the restroom and passed the ointment and gauze to Gong Yu. After receiving the ointment, Gong Yu held Yun Muxi to the sofa in the living room and laid her down cautiously. He got down on one knee, holding the red and swollen blistered hand, and gently blew while applying ointment to the hand with great care. He was so gentle as if he was treating a rare treasure. He knitted his eyebrows tightly and his eyes were full of tender affection. Niannian was panic-stricken when she saw her mummy hurt. She was
Ding Sisi was always a little self-important, so she did not take the scene seriously. While shooting for the first time, the Director called a "cut" directly because of her empty eyes. Director Zhao reminded her in a low voice, "Ding Sisi, why are your eyes empty? You're not playing a dying man. You should be surprised and maladaptive to the sudden change. You should be a little flurried, panicky, and confused. After leaving Mu Lengyu, you must have so many mixed emotions. Think about it and let's do it again." Then, they began to do it again. Ding Sisi shed tears sadly and her performance was emotional. But the Director called a "cut" once again. Director Zhao reminded her again, "Ding Sisi, you have just known Mu Lengyu, so your relationship is vague. You should not cry so badly." She performed for the third time. Ding Sisi opened her eyes in a panic. The Director called a "cut" once again. Direc
Gong Yu whispered to Zhao Yi, and then Zhao Yi responded with a look of hesitation. And Gong Yu added something. Zhao Yi contemplated for seconds and nodded his head finally. Director Zhao stood up, clapped his hands and called loudly at the crew, "Stop and come here for a moment." Hearing the call, all the crew came up to Director Zhao, forming a circle with Zhao Yi in the center. Sitting dismissively on the edge of the film set, Ding Sisi did not move at all. Instead, she lifted her right hand and examined the manicure she just had yesterday, as if she had heard nothing. With a haughty look, she threw a slanting glimpse at the crowd around Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi raised his eyes to glance over the filming site to check whether all had gathered together. Unexpectedly, he found that Ding Sisi was still in the distance. Anger rose instantly in his heart. He withdrew his glance and coughed lightly. Ding Sisi was totally elated in her heart, and a
When Gong Yu saw Amy holding her hands and thinking something else as looking at the phone, he asked, "What's wrong?" Amy put the phone aside and answered softly, "Ding Sisi is really funny. She dared to order me to deal with it carelessly." Upon hearing it, Gong Yu became sullen and said deeply, "Ignore it. And do you own thing carefully." Amy could not help arching her eyebrows and joking, "What? Handsome guy, why did you stand up for Yun Muxi like that? Do you like our screenwriter?" Yun Muxi was surprised at these words and said in disagreement, "Oh dear, Sister Amy, don't make fun of me. It's not good if others hear that." Gong Yu coughed lightly and pretended to be indifferent. He headed down to a magazine and said in a deep voice, "We don't have enough time. Please get started!" After being reminded, Amy came to herself and got into gear quickly, throwing herself into doing m
Yun Muxi was quite timid and said waveringly, "Director, I'd better not. I have never acted before!" Zhao Yi was still in the excitement and comforted with a laugh, "Xiao Xi, it's okay. Take it easy. You just help Gong Yu to play. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. We haven't replaced the female protagonist with you." In fact, Zhao Yi thought, "If she acts well, I can let her have a try. After all, her image is very good." On second thought, he was a little disappointed. "She is just a screenwriter. How could she perform well? I thought about it too simply." Seeing Yun Muxi still boggling, Gong Yu lowered his head and muttered, "If you want this play abortive, quit it." Hearing the word "abortive", Yun Muxi made up her mind instantly and allowed Gong Yu to lead her to the room where the scene had been set. At the moment, a crowd of people entered the filming site, found Ding S
The black Bentley drove so fast that a sudden brake could not stop it, but continue to charge, almost hitting Yun Muxi... A young soldier beside leaped over a car and dashed toward her like a flash light. He held Yun Muxi in his arms and rolled sideways. That hurtling car squeezed past them and halted two meters in front of them finally. Fortunately, the soldier rescued her in time. But for his agility and fast speed, Yun Muxi had been certainly knocked down by the car. The picture that both of them were flying away like a parabola made people around close their eyes. They heard the sound of suddenly braking, but not the clang of crashing and falling down. So they opened their eyes with curiosity, only to find that the woman who had dashed around madly was in a man's arms, lying two meters diagonally behind the black Bentley. The man was dressed in an army uniform. Because of Yun Muxi, the crossing was in a mess with the serious traffic jam. In the black
Lu Yang said casually," I had nothing to do, so I'm popping by the kitchen to take a look. Your back view looked especially good under the sunlight, so I took some photos. I'm just bored and trying to find something to do." Yun Muxi did not question him anymore. She turned around and continued with what she was doing. Lu Yang returned to the sofa and flipped through the pictures he just took. Although Yun Muxi's face was not shown, her thin and weak figure sparked his urge to protect her. Her peaceful back view gave off a light refreshing feeling that made others want to know her more. He flipped to the last photo. It was the only one that showed her face. She was turning her head naturally and casually, with no tint of deliberateness. Her defined features needed no further enhancements. Although she was not smiling, her beauty was more than enough to behold, especially her big eyes. They were black but bright and were as clear as lake water. They seem
