"She made a video? Why didn’t you tell me?"
Lu Yun is different from Ye Yixing; he never watches short videos and has no time for them, which Ye Yixing knows.
"You’re such a busy person; how would you have time to go online! Besides, when I first followed her, she rarely posted videos of the kids, so I didn’t tell you."
On the other side, Su Xingwan noticed Ye Yixing hadn’t replied to her anymore.
She was wondering if she said something too harsh.
As she was about to log out, suddenly another donation came in.
And it was a hefty sum of tens of thousands!!!
What good days has she been having these days?
Out of nowhere, people keep sending her money?
Su Xingwan quickly checked the background of the donor.
Found out it’s from a stranger, and it’s a newly registered account.
Could this person have transferred the money by mistake?
She hurriedly sent a private message to them: [Little friend with ending number 998, did you accidentally transfer this? Auntie can refund it to you; quickly hand your phone to an adult at home.]
Lu Yun heard the ding from his phone, swiped it open, and saw this message.
Ye Yixing leaned over to take a look.
And burst into a loud laugh toward the sky.
"Su Xingwan actually mistook you for a kid using their parent’s phone to , hahahaha!"
Lu Yun’s face darkened a bit.
He clenched his teeth, replying: [I am not a little kid.]
Not a little kid, huh.
[Miss ending number 998, thank you for liking our little one, but this amount is really too much; you’d better refund it.]
Lu Yun clenched his teeth again: [I am a man.]
Seeing this, Ye Yixing started laughing with his stomach again.
Su Xingwan, upon hearing this, felt a bit awkward instantly.
Most of her video viewers are young ladies, so she’s used to addressing them as such.
[Sorry, Mr. ending number 998, thank you for liking our little one, but the amount is really too large; I think you should apply for a refund, please.]
Lu Yun noticed her formal reply with honorifics, typed: [Not refunding.]
Why does it feel like he brought some fire along?
She tried to advise the gentleman several times, but no matter how many messages she sent, the gentleman did not reply.
Ye Yixing sitting beside her was practically laughing hysterically.
"Little friend ending number 998, Miss ending number 998, Mr. ending number 998... hahahaha..."
Lu Yun shot a cold glare over.
Ye Yixing kept laughing non-stop.
He was laughing so hard his stomach was cramping.
Compared to just now when Su Xingwan called him a lunatic, Lu Yun’s situation was worse; instantly, he felt that being scolded by Su Xingwan wasn’t a big deal after all.
"Cousin, you better quickly change your nickname, put up an avatar, right? Otherwise, Su Xingwan won’t know if you’re a man or a woman."
Lu Yun was silent for a few seconds, then silently changed his newly registered ID’s nickname, and uploaded a picture indicating he was a man.
In the following few days, Su Xingwan still hadn’t gone to the cast, since Little Su Yan’s audition day was approaching.
It’s a slot recommended by the previous director for them to audition with Director Zhou, in a five-star hotel, and the person in charge there had already texted her.
Before they headed out, Su Xingwan received a package from the children’s clothing company.
The person in charge informed her that the clothes worn by the three little ones were selling well online, and among those little model clothes, theirs ranked first in sales. To show gratitude, the company sent her a parcel of children’s clothing.
When Su Xingwan unpacked it, she saw a whole big bag full of children’s clothes, for all four seasons, and even sizes for four-year-olds, five-year-olds, and six-year-olds.
They’re divided for boys and girls, each piece looking beautiful and cute.
Seeing so many clothes, the three little ones exclaimed "Wow."
"Auntie, what good day is it today! How come we keep receiving gifts every day?"
A few days ago, they received a pile of toys, Uncle Ye brought them gifts too, and today they got a heap of pretty clothes again.
In the three little ones’ impression, receiving gifts only happens during New Year.
And this is even better than New Year.
Auntie was curious too; she’s been getting money from others nonstop these days.
She felt like asking the same soul-searching question as the little ones.
Su Xingwan: "These are from the uncle who takes you to earn money through runway shows."
"Money-making uncle? Is he from where we took photos with brother together?"
"Yes, that’s the place."
"Wow, that uncle is really nice!" The two little ones said happily.
Seeing so many clothes, Su Xingwan thought she wouldn’t need to buy them new clothes for New Year.
Even their future clothes probably won’t need buying.
The new clothes for these three little ones probably totaled over tens of thousands.
"Auntie, can we thank the uncle by calling him?"
Su Xingwan replied with a smile: "Sure."
A while later, the person in charge received an unexpected call from Su Xingwan. As he picked up, the three little ones spoke.
"Hello, may I ask if you are the money-making uncle?"
The person in charge was taken aback, money-making uncle, what kind of title is that?
"Hello, kids, I am the money-making uncle, but you can call me Uncle Zhang!"
"Okay, hello Uncle Zhang!" The three little ones politely greeted him again.
Manager Zhang laughed joyfully, saying: "Hello, is there anything you need Uncle Zhang for?"
"Auntie said you sent us lots of new clothes today, so we wanted to thank you."
Manager Zhang was taken by surprise.
Sending clothes to little stars is routine in the company because having little stars show them off boosts their performance.
But receiving a call to personally thank them was a first for these little ones.
"Oh, I see. Then Uncle will thank you for your kindness, Uncle got it."
The three little ones giggled happily on the other end of the call.
Then they said: "Goodbye, Uncle Zhang!"
"Goodbye, kids." Manager Zhang felt his heart warm, touched by the little ones.
Today was a sunny, bright day; Su Xingwan happily took the three little ones out.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the location for Director Zhou’s audition.
Director Zhou’s film required many child actors, revolving around kids, with a ton of kids vying for the lead roles and main supporting characters.
This film is set during the war-torn period of the Republic era, where, due to war, the protagonists’ children are separated, and the film centers around the journey to find the children.
When Su Xingwan took the three little ones to the hotel, they saw lots of adults with their kids waiting on the chairs in the lobby, a crowded scene.
Most of their previous acting gigs were internally recommended, where they could directly act if seen by the director. It was their first time with such a proper audition and so many competitors.
