The Long Aotian Cub Becomes the Pampered Darling of a Wealthy Family 49

Chapter 49

At the door, Shen Tiantian tilted his little head, his watery, sparkling eyes blinking as he hinted strongly at Shen Xiuze:

“Big brother, do you not like this bracelet?”

If I didn’t like it, would I be wearing it? Shen Xiuze thought.

Shen Xiuze sighed helplessly, both angry and amused as he pinched the little one’s nose.

“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. I can’t give you this bracelet.”

Shen Tiantian’s little nose was pinched. He puffed out his cheeks, took a couple of breaths like a little goldfish, and flailed his two short little arms.

“Why not?”

Shen Xiuze didn’t brush Shen Tiantian off or fool him just because he was young. His eyes were filled with seriousness as he explained to him:

“First, because I’ve been wearing this bracelet for a long time, and it’s not good to just give it away. Second, because this bracelet is too valuable. Even if I gave it to Grandma, it would be a considerable burden for her.”

Grandma was clearly the type of old person who was used to being frugal. If she suddenly received a treasure, she definitely wouldn’t think of improving her life but would be terrified of bumping or breaking it.

In the end, it would just be put away and serve no purpose.

Shen Tiantian nodded, half-understanding. His chubby little face puffed up, and he let out a long sigh.

“Then what should I do?”

Shen Xiuze lifted his eyes, glanced at the worriedly looking Grandma, and the coldness in his eyes faded a lot. He squatted down and gave the little one an idea.

“You don’t have to give Grandma something very valuable. Grandma will be reluctant to use it and will only think of saving it for you.”

Shen Xiuze thought of the electronic contract the little one had just signed this afternoon and added:

“You’re already a little star who can earn money. When you go to film in a couple of days, you’ll receive a payment. You can exchange this money for something to give to Grandma.”

“The first money you earn is very meaningful. Grandma definitely won’t refuse.”

The money Shen Tiantian earned from the variety show was settled with Shen Jinfeng. The payment for filming with Lin Chen’an would be directly deposited into Shen Tiantian’s own account.

Shen Tiantian’s little eyes lit up. He let out a “wow” and excitedly threw himself into his brother’s arms.

“Big brother, you’re so smart!”

Hearing the little one’s praise, Shen Xiuze sighed, but the corners of his eyes couldn’t help but lift slightly.

His eyes were long and narrow, as calm as a placid lake. But once he had emotions, his eyes would half-close, and the corners would lift, and this lake would be like a stone had been thrown into it, creating ripples.

It would give people the illusion that Shen Xiuze was actually very gentle.

At least, that’s what Ye Jiabao, who was standing on the side, felt.

He watched as Shen Xiuze pinched Shen Tiantian’s little nose, and he wasn’t annoyed when Shen Tiantian threw himself into his arms. He didn’t even push Shen Tiantian away because of his germaphobia.

In that moment, Ye Jiabao felt as if he were watching some absurd silent drama.

He felt that he had been a clown in his previous life.

An inexplicable frustration welled up in his heart, and it was stuck in his chest with nowhere to go. Ye Jiabao held it in and managed not to break down on the spot.

In the end, they were not real brothers.

Ye Jiabao could only console himself with this.

The last trace of white light in the sky was swallowed by the night. The moon hung quietly on the dry branches, emitting a not-so-bright glow.

Shen Xiuze first drove Ye Jiabao back and then returned to the Shen family.

The villa was brightly lit, and the door was wide open.

Shen Tiantian had already fallen asleep in the back seat, his little head tilted up, his sleeping posture bizarre.

If it weren’t for the seatbelt restraining him, his little feet would probably be kicking the car door, completely writing his name, Shen Tiantian, all over this space.

Shen Xiuze got out of the car, carried the little tyrant-like sleeping Shen Tiantian down, and a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.

Shen Yuanchuan walked out of the house. Seeing his little son sleeping soundly, he also laughed.

“Like a little pig reincarnated. He can eat, drink, and sleep.”

Shen Yuanchuan then looked at his eldest son, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

“Thank you for your hard work. The project a while ago was completed very well. You finally have some free time today, and you still took Shen Tiantian to see his grandma.”

When Shen Xiuze faced his father, his expression was silent and quiet.

“It’s fine. I was free anyway.”

It seemed that besides official business, the father and son had nothing to talk about. After a business-like chat, they took Shen Tiantian back to his room to sleep.

After washing up, Shen Xiuze leaned against the bed and scrolled through the schedule on his phone when a notification suddenly popped up.

[Super luxurious children’s bed with raised all-solid-wood single extra-wide small bed]

Shen Xiuze’s heart moved, and he clicked on it.

He looked at it carefully and found that this small bed was still not suitable.

Shen Tiantian’s sleeping posture was too bizarre. The gaps in the railing couldn’t be too big, and the small bed preferably had to have two steps to make it easier for Shen Tiantian’s short little legs to climb up.

After browsing the online shopping mall, Shen Xiuze was not satisfied no matter how he looked at it.

In the end, he simply did it himself, drew a simple design of a small bed on his phone, and had someone custom-make one.

After doing all this, Shen Xiuze silently let out a breath.

Next door, Shen Jinfeng, who had just finished his investment project, thought of Shen Tiantian chasing after him for the riding clothes two days ago and sighed with a headache.

He really owed this little ancestor!

Shen Jinfeng then contacted the designer who made riding clothes and asked him to help custom-make a set of children’s riding clothes.

The two brothers were busy until midnight before they finally went to sleep.

The deep night was gradually dispelled by the light. The sky became bright again, and a bright light fell on the ground.

Shen Tiantian crawled out of bed in a daze, brushed his teeth, washed his face, and received a call from Qin Ye.

Qin Ye, despite having gone abroad, called once a day, more punctual than an alarm clock.

“Tiantian, are you awake?”

Tiantian hummed twice, picked out his clothes, and with his little eyes curved in happiness, he said to Qin Ye:

“Yezi, I’m going to act in a movie. You’ll be able to see the drama I’m in soon!”

Qin Ye hadn’t expected Tiantian to be so amazing, but he also felt that with Tiantian’s cute appearance and bright personality, it was only natural that he would be chosen to act.

“That’s great. I have to work hard too!”

Qin Ye still wanted to keep his position as the number one little follower, so he naturally couldn’t fall too far behind.

After hanging up the phone, it was just getting dark on Qin Ye’s side, but he still opened the one-on-one teaching video class and buried his head in studying with the teacher.

Qin Bailan had just returned from a social engagement. Seeing that the light in her son’s room was still on, her heart softened for a moment.

“You don’t have to work so hard. You’re still young. It’s okay to relax a little,” Qin Bailan placed the fruit on her son’s desk.

Qin Ye, however, shook his head, his little expression extremely determined.

“No, Tiantian is already a big star now, and I haven’t achieved anything yet. I can’t be his little follower like this!”

The corner of Qin Bailan’s mouth twitched, and she couldn’t help but say, “Why are you so obsessed with being Tiantian’s little follower?”

Qin Ye had already turned his head, thinking that his mother didn’t know how popular Tiantian’s little follower was!

He sat up straight and picked up his pen again.

“Mommy, don’t disturb my studies.”

Qin Bailan could only sigh and close the door as she left.

The winter weather never seemed to be bright. It was always gloomy, and the sun was nowhere to be found, hiding in some corner.

Shen Tiantian jumped out of the car, held the butler uncle’s hand, and walked towards the entrance of the film city.

C City had the second-largest film and television base in the country, covering a vast area. More than half of it was ancient-style buildings, and a small part was characteristic scenes from the Republic of China era.

Several film crews were filming at the east gate of the film and television base at the same time. Shen Tiantian followed the butler uncle and finally found Lin Chen’an’s film crew.

This director, Lin Chen’an, had a particular preference for historical dramas, especially tragic historical dramas from the end of a dynasty.

Perhaps because the style was too tragic, although the dramas he had filmed before had a very good reputation and some had even been broadcast on satellite TV, their popularity had never been very high.

It was also very difficult to get investment for this drama. After much thought, Lin Chen’an changed the theme of this drama.

It was changed to a light-hearted comedy-style historical drama from the end of a dynasty.

To be honest, it was not surprising that the market was not optimistic about this drama. The combination of these elements really didn’t look like it would be a hit.

But only Ye Jiabao, who had been reborn, knew that it was precisely this drama that had its popularity skyrocket after it was broadcast and had become a classic that was passed down for more than ten years.

A comedy shell with a tragic core, and the protagonist even became the emperor in the end, opening up a new dynasty.

Unlike the previous protagonists who always died, this TV series also had a certain degree of satisfaction.

It had both connotation and satisfying points, which was why it had become so popular so suddenly.

However, at this time, the people in the film crew didn’t know this, and Shen Tiantian didn’t know either. He was just extremely excited that he could be a little actor!

The assistant director had called Lin Chen’an in advance and knew that a child actor was coming today. When he heard a staff member say that a child was looking for him, he quickly came out to greet them.

“Are you Tiantian?”

The assistant director looked at Tiantian, who was very young in both appearance and age, and couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.

“You’re very good-looking. Let the makeup artist try a costume on you first to see the effect.”

This drama was a historical drama, and Shen Tiantian was playing the male lead as a child. Although his role was not particularly heavy, he still had to wear a wig.

The makeup artist’s older sister led the little actor Tiantian into the makeup room. Because it was a costume fitting and the little one had a good foundation, the older sister barely put any makeup on his face.

While no one was looking, the older sister even secretly pinched the little one’s soft and chubby face.

“How are you so cute?”

To be honest, he didn’t look like the male lead at all after he grew up, with his pure and kind appearance but black-bellied and gloomy inside!

Tiantian dangled his short little legs, giggled, and his ears turned slightly red.

“Really? I am indeed good-looking.”

Being praised, Tiantian accepted it calmly, which made the older sister laugh out loud.
