The boy directed the man’s attention to the TV screen, which was flashing motion pictures of the latter in Lin Fengtian’s teen movie, titled ‘Bamboo Dragonfly’.
Gu Xingze stared blankly at the screen for a while before an upward hook tugged at a corner of his lips.
He had seen a similar-looking child once, and that was the young boy of the Mu family.
He supposed that this child was one of the twins and Yun Shishi’s son.
He was a very witty child.
Calling back his thoughts, a grin blossomed on his face. “What a cute child. What’s your name?”
“Yun Tianyou!” The little boy politely arranged his hands to his back. His eyes then anxiously darted on to his mother who was in the man’s grasp. Puzzled by this, he inquired, “What happened to mommy?”
“She drank!”
The little boy’s lips convulsed, feeling rather irritated.
She drank again!
Dumb mommy. She’s aware of her poor alcohol tolerance, yet she still went ahead and drank.
Gu Xingze carried her all the way to the bedroom to put her down. When the man exited the room, he was approached by Youyou, whose hand was now holding an autograph notebook. With a sweet and elegant smile on his lips, he looked just like a handsome, young gentleman.
“Uncle Xingze, could you please give me your autograph? He he. I’m a big fan of yours!”
The man slowly crouched before him. Lightly poking at his straight nose bridge, he teased, “You’re my fan, hm? Do you know how to sing my songs?”
“… I do, but Youyou is tone deaf and sounds horrible!” The man could not help but be amused by his bashful countenance.
“What a little cutie. All right; I’ll sign for you!”
He pulled up a smile as he took the pen from the little boy. He then penned his signature elegantly on the notebook.
“Thank you, Uncle Xingze!”
The young lad inclined his head and asked with sparkling black orbs, “Uncle Xingze, are you filming a movie with my mommy now?”
“Mm. Yes. I’m your mommy’s colleague.”
“My mommy’s really dumb, so Uncle Xingze must take care of her! If she’s being bullied in the team, Youyou will be very upset!” The young boy clasped at his heart pitifully and wore an anxious look.
Gu Xingze was secretly in shock.
This kid was truly different from others!
Other children his age were still immature despite being fluent with their speeches.
This child, meanwhile, was no ordinary kid. He radiated wit and easily charmed people with his choice of words. What was more precious was that he loved his mommy dearly.
He was a sensible and lovely child.
He nodded in assurance. “Tianyou, don’t worry; I will take good care of your mommy and not let anyone bully her!”
“Really?”
“Really!”
“It’s a promise, then!” Yun Tianyou stretched his little finger out and the man quickly locked it with his to make a pinky promise.
“It’s a promise!”
“Why did mommy return home so late this night?” the young boy indirectly probed.
The man’s face was ridden with guilt. “Erm. We had a dinner gathering, so she came back a little late.”
The little boy heaved a sigh of relief upon knowing the reason for her delayed return. They had a dinner gathering; that was why she had arrived home late and her phone was turned off. His calls could not go through to her no matter what, and that made him worry about her a lot.
Once the superstar departed, Youyou dashed into the washroom and brought out a hot towel. As he entered the bedroom, he was startled to find his mommy wide awake in bed. “Mommy… you’re not drunk?!”
