Chapter 116 – Girls Are Treasures (
According to the numbering system, Lin Yueqi and her family is family no. 4, while Song Renze’s family is family no. 3.
Lin Yueqi’s family was discussing what they were going to do on the show when Song Renze brought his wife and his son, Song Mu, over.
The little boy, Mumu, was already five and a half, and since he was an early bloomer, his face wasn’t as tender as the other kids. He wasn’t a big talker and his brows were constantly knitted into a frown, looking very serious.
Mumu was holding a pot of red braised pork and walked up to Lu Ting, handing it to him.
Seeing that he wasn’t saying anything and just looked at Lu Ting, Mumu’s mother quickly said, “Mumu, what should you call him?”
Only then did the boy call Lu Ting “Uncle”.
Lu Ting took the red braised pork from the child and opened the lid. Instantly, the room was filled with the aroma of food. Mumu’s mother quickly said, “I heard from Renze that your little girl loves red braised pork, so I made a bit more and brought some over. The quality of the meat out in the countryside is pretty good, the taste is really fresh too. You should give it a try.”
Without even waiting for Mother Mumu to finish speaking, TUantuan had already picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a piece, and began to gorge herself, covering her mouth with grease and sauce. When they saw her enjoying her meal so much, everyone else in the room couldn’t help but lick their lips as well.
The director swallowed his saliva and lamented, “Mr. Lu, this fat little girl of yours sure can eat. Will she be okay if she keeps eating like this?”
At first, when Lu Ting saw how much Tuantuan ate, he also felt that she might get herself sick one day if she stuffs herself this way, but reality proved that not only was she eating fine, she was also pretty happy.
Mumu was also frightened by the way Tuantuan ate and subconsciously frowned.
Tuantuan moved her half-eaten pork to Mumu’s mouth and said, “Big brother, do you want some?”
Mumu looked disgusted. “No, thank you.”
…
When he heard about what happened to their group, Song Renze felt very sorry for them, and he proposed a solution. “Then…why don’t we share a scriptwriter? It won’t do without a script. It’s hard to get the tastes of the audience. If you follow the script strictly, you at least won’t make any big mistakes.”
The director took Song Renze’s hand. “Teacher Song! You really are a selfless and good man!”
Lin Yueqi was also very touched and palmed her arms at him in respect. “Brother Song, you have my thanks!”
“No problem, it’s what I should do.”
That very night, however, Song Renze’s scriptwriter suddenly had something stuck on his teeth while he was drinking water when he was writing the script for the two families and it hurt so much that he rolled on the ground. So, the crew was forced to send the man to the town hospital.
The next day.
Lin Yueqi and Song Renze sat in the same house, both staring at each other, silently. “…”
Lin Yueqi looked very apologetic at Song Renze. “I’m sorry, Brother Song. We ended up infecting you with our misfortune too.”
Even Lu Ting who was never superstitious felt for the first time that they had dragged family no. 3 down with their bad luck. He also looked apologetic. “I’m really sorry.”
That Big Brother Lu himself would apologize to him made Song Renze feel a bit embarrassed. He waved his hands and said, “This really has nothing to do with you. It’s just a coincidence.”
The adults of both families chatted inside of the central hall while Tuantuan and Mumu sat together on the door’s threshold.
Mumu sat upright on the threshold with his hands on his knees. His expression looked serious.
He was looking far ahead as if he were thinking of something with a cool face. His face looked so serious that he hardly seemed like a child, but he still had the cuteness of an old kid.
