Restaurant
The secluded private room blocked out the noisy sounds. Zhuzhu was sitting obediently on the child chair, eating the food that Xu Chunian had let cool.
Seeing the cute little cub, Shen Qingli's heart softened as well.
"I haven't seen Zhuzhu for a long time either."
Xu Chunian poured a small glass of juice for her. "Zhuzhu, do you know who this is?"
Zhuzhu slurped the noodles into her mouth and looked up at them blankly.
"It's your godmother. This is your godmother."
Hearing this, Shen Qingli was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed softly.
Zhuzhu looked over at her and curved her eyes.
"Zhuzhu is so good." Shen Qingli couldn't help pinching her chubby little face.
Xu Chunian snorted softly. "Jiang Huaixu didn't even want to let me bring Zhuzhu out. You two almost couldn't meet."
Shen Qingli's hand paused. "How did he agree?"
Judging from the previous situation, he would never have dared to let her take Zhuzhu out alone.
"The driver is following." Xu Chunian propped her head on her hand. "What on earth have I done that he's so on guard against me?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingli remained silent.
Xu Chunian pouted. These days, whether it was her most trusted Ali, her beloved parents, or Jiang Huaixu, their unanimous attitudes were enough to show that the 24-year-old Xu Chunian was really bad.
"Ali, I saw a few days ago that your comic is going to be made into a TV drama or movie, right?"
Shen Qingli nodded. "Preparations for filming are already underway."
"What about the leading actress? Has the leading actress been confirmed?"
Shen Qingli lowered her eyes to conceal the emotions in them. "It's been chosen."
"Can I go and play on your set?" Xu Chunian looked at her expectantly. "I love watching the sweet moments on set."
Shen Qingli laughed softly. "Sure, but it's not a big-budget production, and the actors aren't popular young actresses either."
"It's okay. I'll be your assistant." Saying that, she moved closer to Shen Qingli. "For free."
"Okay." Shen Qingli smiled. "Do you have any plans now?"
"I don't know. I'll take it one step at a time. Anyway, now that I'm here, I definitely won't let things get worse." Saying that, she glanced at Zhuzhu, who was eating obediently like a little pork bun.
She had taken care of nieces who would run around the whole house while eating, or scatter rice everywhere, making having a meal like going to war. Zhuzhu was very good, eating obediently, being easy to take care of and not making a fuss. Along the way, she would just look at everything with her big eyes full of curiosity.
She was completely different from those naughty kids. While feeling relieved, Xu Chunian also felt a bit sorry for her.
"Are you full?" Xu Chunian asked.
Zhuzhu nodded.
Xu Chunian wiped her mouth for her, then wiped her hands with a wet tissue, took off her bib, and lifted her out of the chair.
This series of actions somewhat surprised Shen Qingli. "Niannian, I didn't expect that you're quite handy at taking care of children."
Xu Chunian's hand paused. "I don't know why either. Some things just seem to come easily all of a sudden, as if I've done them many times before."
Clearly, there was no trace of living in that villa in her memory, but every path seemed to have been walked a hundred times. She could even accurately know the positions of the items.
Zhuzhu was placed on the sofa, hugging her little pig doll. Xu Chunian put on an animated cartoon and placed the lunch box behind it. She was watching it attentively.
"Did I take care of Zhuzhu before?"
Shen Qingli pursed her lips. "I'm not sure. We haven't been in contact for a long time either."
Xu Chunian pursed her lips. "Ali, do you think I really traveled from 18 years old to 24 years old?"
