It had been a long time since they last saw each other. The tension between Lu Shanhe and Song Chen had never dissipated.
They would definitely quarrel the moment they met.
Song Chen sneered, “Pick you up? The audacity you have there.”
Lu Shanhe clicked his tongue and stuffed his backpack into Jiang Cheng’s arms. He came over with a face full of arrogance and went up against song Chen.
The two of them stared at each other coldly and engaged in a verbal battle. They were mocking each other. On the side, Chuchu really wanted to ridicule them. These two men were so childish…
In the end, Gu Manxi and her group left the airport through the special VIP channel.
Zhao Yan personally cooked and made a table full of dishes to welcome Gu Manxi. Zhao Manshi also ran over happily. Wherever there was Gu Manxi, there was her. At the dining table, Zhao Manshi told everyone about the funny stories of filming abroad, causing the table to be filled with laughter.
In the evening, Gu Chu hugged a soft pillow and ran to sleep with Mommy.
After Gu Manxi returned to China, her work was not delayed. The movie she starred in was in the promotional period, so Gu Manxi had to attend a lot of activities to show her face. After the shooting of the movie was over, Lisa gave her a few TV scripts and asked Gu Manxi to pick a leading character.
That afternoon, Gu Chu personally made some hot tea for Manxi. She nestled in Gu Manxi’s arms and read the scripts with Gu Manxi.
“Mommy, what are you reading?” Gu Chu asked curiously.
It was winter and the temperature in the room was low. Gu Manxi draped a blanket over Gu Chu and said gently, “Mommy is reading the scripts and needs to choose a suitable one.”
Gu Manxi was now a celebrity under Song Entertainment. After filming Lu Shanhe’s movie, her status and influence had greatly increased. Her manager, Lisa, planned to introduce her to acting in various TV series. This way, she could occasionally shoot a movie script to gain more popularity.
The scripts that were given to Gu Manxi were all female leads.
“Chuchu also wants to see it.” Gu Chu lay on Gu Manxi’s arm, her dark eyes wandering over the four scripts.
The four scripts were: “The Wind Blows’, “Tales of Yu Lu’, “The Meeting”, and “Ode to the Human World”.
Based on the names, it was in line with the naming conventions of classic Chinese TV series… It was easy to guess which ones had female leads and which ones had male leads.
“Mama, what script do you want to choose?” Gu Chu grabbed the outline of the script of “Tales of Yu Lu” with her claws, her eyes shining.
Gu Manxi said gently, “I want to choose between ‘The Wind Blows’ and ‘Tales of Yu Lu’… but I’m not sure yet.” Gu Manxi felt pressured when her manager put the decision in her hands. Lisa was always polite and cold to her, but Gu Manxi really did not know what she had done to offend her.
“Choose ‘The Wind Blows’, Mommy.” Gu Chu blinked and said seriously, “Chuchu has seen the fan animation of “The Wind Blows’ before. It’s really good. The female lead in it is as beautiful as Mommy.”
Gu Manxi smiled and pinched Gu Chu’s little nose. “Our Chuchu is still watching cantoons? Did you secretly watch it under the covers at night?”
“No,” Gu Chu said while pouting. “Mommy, can we just choose ‘The Wind Blows’? The name “Tale of Yu Lu’ doesn’t sound nice..”
