Their sleepiness disappeared, and before Su Xingwan could get up, the two little ones had already dashed into Auntie’s room, quickly taking off their cotton-padded jackets and snuggling into Auntie’s fragrant bed.
Su Xingwan was stunned.
It seemed like she had been deceived by them.
The two little ones poked out their fluffy little heads and eagerly awaited Auntie’s arrival.
Su Xingwan pretended, "Aren’t stories meant to be told in your room?"
The two little ones giggled, "Auntie, we like listening to stories in your room."
These two little ones were using the excuse of listening to stories, but actually wanted to sleep in her room.
Su Xingwan had no choice but to turn and call in Little Su Yan, who hadn’t entered yet.
Little Su Yan hesitated for a moment before stepping inside.
When Auntie came in, the two little ones quickly made space in the middle for Auntie to lie down.
Little Su Yan seemed a bit awkward, unsure of where to lie.
Little Su Luo quickly noticed his brother’s embarrassment and hurriedly said, "Brother, you can lie here with me."
Then Little Su Yan climbed up and obediently lay on the bed.
Since the house had no storybooks, Su Xingwan took out her phone to search for fairy tales.
"Let’s start the story now!"
At this moment, the two little ones lay on her legs, their bright eyes watching Auntie.
Su Xingwan stroked their little heads and began telling the story of Cinderella.
When Su Xingwan finished the story, the three little ones all had wide, shining eyes.
Little Su Yan, who had never heard stories before, was captivated by Auntie’s storytelling.
Seeing their high spirits, Su Xingwan told another story, that of the Little Mermaid.
The three little ones became even more spirited.
She then put down her phone, "Shouldn’t you be going to sleep now?"
The three little ones refused to sleep, cuddling up to Su Xingwan and whining, "Auntie, we want to hear more stories."
"No, it’s time to sleep."
The two little ones pouted their lips; they were still full of energy under the covers, continuously asking about the mermaid story’s plot.
Su Xingwan looked at them, "Shouldn’t you go to your own room to sleep?"
The two little ones blinked their eyes, feigning ignorance.
"Auntie, we want to hear more stories."
She went up and pinched their little noses.
"Lying children will have long noses."
The two little ones didn’t believe it.
Su Xingwan rolled her eyes, "Alright, Auntie will tell you the last story, and after that, you must go to sleep, okay?"
The two little ones said happily.
Su Xingwan told them the story of a puppet named Pinocchio.
The two little ones, hearing how Pinocchio’s nose grew longer and longer from lying, didn’t dare move under the covers.
"Auntie, do lying kids really get long noses?"
Su Xingwan thought for a moment; she didn’t want to lie to them but also wanted to preserve their innocence, so she said, "You’ll find out when you grow up."
The two little ones tilted their heads, confused.
Why do they have to wait until they grow up to find out?
Can’t Auntie tell them now?
Su Xingwan put down her phone and gave them a final ultimatum: "So... shouldn’t you go back to your own room to sleep now?"
This time, the two little ones fell silent.
Little Su Hua looked at her, "Auntie, we lied earlier."
Little Su Luo hung his head, "We actually wanted to sleep in Auntie’s room."
Little Su Yan felt that it was because of him that the younger siblings couldn’t sleep with Auntie.
So he said, "Auntie, I’ll sleep in a room by myself, let the younger siblings continue to sleep in your room."
Little Su Yan now felt like he wasn’t needed by his younger siblings.
The two little ones quickly said, "No, Brother, we’re together! We can’t be separated."
The three little ones made themselves look so pitiful that Su Xingwan really had no choice but to say, "Fine, fine, you can sleep in Auntie’s room, alright?"
Upon hearing this, the three little ones immediately beamed with joy.
The three little ones obediently lay down, and their pitiful look instantly vanished.
Su Xingwan turned off the nightlight and had just lain down when...
She heard Little Su Hua whispering, "Auntie, your bed smells so nice."
Little Su Luo nodded along, "Mm-hmm, so fragrant, so fragrant."
Su Xingwan patted their heads, "Now go to sleep."
In no time, the three little ones drifted into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Su Xingwan was woken up by a multitude of messages from her phone’s background.
Upon opening the video platform, she discovered that the New Year’s Eve video she had posted last night had blown up, amassing millions of views, and her followers were increasing rapidly.
From over a thousand followers, it now exceeded ten thousand.
There were thousands of comments in the comment section.
[Ah! Found the original poster, it was here all along.]
[Didn’t expect the kids’ guardian to be doing media online.]
[Is the uploader just playing a minor role?]
Little Su Luo was brushing his teeth in the bathroom when suddenly the system started speaking in his mind.
[Little one, if an advertiser calls your Auntie’s phone, you must agree.]
Little Su Luo was puzzled.
[Didn’t you want to help your Auntie earn money? Last night, you and your brother and sister trended. Soon, advertisers will notice you and call your Auntie, and you’ll be able to help her make money.]
Little Su Luo’s eyes immediately brightened.
[I can help Auntie make money?]
System: [Yes, you can help your Auntie make money.]
Little Su Luo danced with joy in the bathroom.
System: [Right, you must not let your Auntie discover my existence.]
Preparing to go to work, Su Xingwan was a bit surprised to see Little Su Luo so happy all of a sudden.
"Luo Bao, why are you so happy today?"
"I’m not telling you, Auntie."
Su Xingwan laughed, "Now there’s a secret you’re keeping from Auntie?"
Upon arriving at the set, Su Xingwan received a minor role to play.
Director Li came over at this point.
"The set over there needs a lot of kids, why don’t you take those three kids to join in!"
Su Xingwan looked down at them, "Can they all do it?"
"Yes, they can! Quickly get them changed and smear some dirt on their faces."
Su Xingwan: "Alright."
The two little ones were very happy to change into their costumes, excited to follow Auntie around again.
Little Su Yan, after changing into ancient children’s clothes, looked awkward.
Previously, he had deliberately feigned illness to avoid going to the set because he didn’t want to act.
Unexpectedly, after returning, he ended up back here with his younger siblings.
Su Xingwan saw his unhappy expression.
And said, "Yanbao, you don’t like acting?"
Little Su Yan hung his head without speaking.
So Su Xingwan said, "Then how about you stay with Aunt Tang while we finish filming, and I’ll come pick you up afterward?"
