"If someone provokes you first, do you really have to retaliate?" Little Taotie tilted her head, her curious big eyes full of eagerness for knowledge.
Chen Zi’s heart skipped a beat.
He pressed his lips together, unsure whether he should continue speaking.
If he says too much, would it mislead the child?
Chairman Cheng and her brothers protect her well, but this protection is external. When the day comes that there’s no external protection, will she be able to protect herself?
"Brother Chen Zi?" Little Taotie’s eager eyes blinked and she called out impatiently.
Chen Zi decided to say something, thinking it’s better than letting the little girl get fooled naively in the future.
Perhaps... this is why the boss arranged for him to come instead of Number 1?
Zaizai is so well protected that she doesn’t understand the danger in people’s hearts.
Chen Zi sighed, squatted down, and patiently said, "You want to film all night, and Gu Bei listened to you and didn’t tell your brother, but your brother found out anyway. He dotes on you and didn’t blame you, but he took his anger out on Gu Bei because he kept it a secret."
Little Taotie looked stunned, her eyes full of confusion and helplessness, her soft voice weak: "Was it me... who caused trouble for Brother Gu Bei?"
"Your brother didn’t dock his pay or demote him, so how was he harmed by you? Don’t overthink it. Your brother just moved him away from your side because he’s too indulgent with you, fulfilling your every request unconditionally, even to the point of hiding things from your brother. If this continues, in the future, if you want to reach the sky, he’d probably help you get there."
"I..." Little Taotie blinked innocently: "I don’t want to reach the sky."
"It’s just a figure of speech." Chen Zi ruffled her hair, "I’m not Gu Bei, I won’t help you keep secrets from your brother because I prioritize my work and making money above all else, if what you want me to do would interfere with my work and earning money, I definitely won’t help you."
Chen Zi thought his words might anger Little Taotie since she is the Little Princess and everyone pampers her.
Unexpectedly, Little Taotie nodded understandingly, clenched her little fists to cheer him on: "Right! Work hard, earn money! Making money is the most important!"
Chen Zi chuckled, suddenly remembering the boss’s complaints.
The boss always complained to them, saying his sister is a workaholic.
He used to secretly think, she’s just a six-year-old child, her interest in work is just temporary and will fade away.
However, after getting to know her up close, he discovered that Little Taotie is truly a workaholic.
Since he started working by her side as an assistant, he has never seen Little Taotie rest. She works diligently, reshoots if unsatisfied, always pursuing perfection. After filming, she finds time to livestream and chat with fans to strengthen bonds...
"Little Taotie, what’s your dream?"
"I want lots of people to like me, to have many, many people admire me."
"That’s not easy, you might have to win an award."
"Win an award?" Little Taotie blinked her eyes.
"Don’t you know? There are awards in the entertainment industry too, like Best Newcomer, Best Actress, Best Female Supporting Role, and so on."
