The assistant’s eyes widened in disbelief, "That’s very dangerous thinking."
Cheng Guodong ignored him and called his grandfather directly, "Grandpa, why haven’t you set me up with anyone recently?"
On the other end of the phone, his grandfather was not pleased, "The time and location I sent you, when have you ever looked? When have you ever gone? I’ve lost all face! I’m not setting you up with anyone anymore. The granddaughters of my old pals hear the matchmaking is with you, and none of them are willing to come!"
Cheng Guodong sulked, "I’ve been busy earlier."
His grandfather’s eyes darted around, "So you’re not busy now?"
"Um, I’m not busy lately."
"You little rascal, you finally want to find a partner!"
"You arrange it. The information you send, I’ll look at it."
That very night, the old man organized a gathering of old friends to share the news that his grandson had finally come to his senses and was looking for a partner.
"That’s great news! You just wait to hold your great-grandchild!" a fashionably dressed old man said.
The old man’s eyes sparkled, "I say, Old Zheng, your granddaughter is not young anymore..."
Old Zheng waved his hand, "She’s not interested in that, a career woman, not into marriage or having children."
The old man tried to persuade him, "That’s not good, when you reach a certain age you need to find someone you get along with to partner up in life..."
Old Zheng shrugged, "I can’t be bothered with her."
The old man actually quite liked Old Zheng’s granddaughter, a girl who was good in studies, smart and brainy. If she could date his grandson and they had a son who took after the girl’s side, he would definitely be the studious type.
The old man leaned close to Old Zheng, whispering into his ear.
Old Zheng looked doubtful, "That doesn’t seem right, does it?"
The old man spoke in a hushed tone, "What’s wrong with that, we’re doing it for their own good."
Old Zheng held his forehead, "I really don’t want to meddle. If they end up divorcing, they’ll blame this old man for interfering."
The old man’s face turned stern, serious, "Our family has no precedent of divorce, don’t worry."
Old Zheng hesitated, struggling to make up his mind.
The old man said, "You don’t need to give me an answer right now. If you agree, just give me a call, and if you don’t, don’t bother calling, let’s pretend this conversation never happened."
Old Zheng nodded, "Alright, I’ll go back and discuss it with my spouse."
Far away on the filming base, the stylist sister sneezed, feeling a bit cold.
The little assistant handed her a down vest, "It’s chilly in the mountains come evening; Master, you mustn’t catch a cold."
The stylist sister smiled, "Alright, thanks my thoughtful little apprentice."
The little assistant blushed, looking towards the distant car lights, "Is that a car coming? Could it be Little Taotie?"
The stylist sister shook her head, "Don’t know if it’s her, but she’ll definitely come."
The little assistant expressed admiration, "Master, only you would put aside multi-million deals to follow a star under the disguise of being a stylist."
The stylist sister laughed, "I’m afraid of other people misusing makeup on my Zaizai. The cosmetics I bring are baby-safe, purely natural, and harmless."
The car stopped, and Gu Bei got out, greeted the familiar stylist, "Hello there." NovelHub
The stylist sister approached, looking towards the sleeping Little Taotie in the car, "Hello. This place is quite remote, must have taken you a while to get here, right?"
Gu Bei nodded, "Seven or eight hours." NovelHub
"Little apprentice, prepare some food."
"At your command, Master!"
When the little assistant had left, the stylist sister asked, "Should we wake Zaizai?"
Gu Bei smiled, "Once the food arrives, she’ll wake up on her own. Let her sleep a bit longer."
The stylist sister nodded, entering the nanny van and sitting beside Little Taotie.
Looking at Little Taotie’s sleeping face, the stylist sister suddenly felt the urge to have a daughter.
Gu Bei also entered the van, joking, "You’ve followed her schedule here, haven’t you?"
"Isn’t that what chasing stars is all about? Wherever she goes, I go."
"You’re becoming her personal stylist."
"I really enjoy the work."
Gu Bei was exasperated, "And your business ventures, you’re comfortable leaving them to others?"
The stylist sister was pretty confident, "Don’t suspect someone you employ, don’t employ someone you suspect."
