Chapter 54
The night was like a giant piece of deep black velvet, covering the entire sky so tightly that no light could pass through. The clouds and stars were the only embellishments in the folds of the velvet.
In the hotel bedroom, the lights were bright.
After a few seconds of silence, Shen Tiantian’s just-dispersed sleepiness came back. The back of his collar was still being held by Shen Jinfeng, but his eyelids couldn’t help but slowly close.
Shen Jinfeng put Shen Tiantian back on the bed, folded his arms, and took a slow, deep breath.
At this moment, Shen Tiantian was so sleepy his little head was no longer spinning. He stuck his little bottom in the air and obediently crawled back into the quilt.
He rubbed his little face against the soft pillow, and his whole person seemed to be swallowed by the quilt, quietly and obediently falling into a dream.
Shen Jinfeng stood at the head of the bed, gritting his back teeth hard.
Little brat!
Shen Jinfeng was so angry he couldn’t stand it. He reached out and pinched Shen Tiantian’s nose hard.
It’s a good thing I have a good temper.
If anyone else were Shen Tiantian’s brother, this little brat would have been beaten up!
After venting his anger, Shen Jinfeng closed the bedroom door, went to the small living room next door, and called Assistant Chen on his phone.
Assistant Chen was still busy with the live stream. When he saw that it was his boss’s call, he quickly answered it.
“Mr. Shen? Do you have any instructions? I’ve already sent the list of live stream celebrities to the cooperating team. We’ll try to make the official announcement on Weibo tonight.”
Shen Jinfeng was silent for a moment and slapped his forehead with a sense of helplessness.
“Didn’t you feel that there was something wrong with the person you were chatting with on WeChat tonight?”
Assistant Chen was a recent college graduate. Hearing this, he couldn’t help but push up the non-prescription glasses he wore to look profound.
Unfortunately, the clear and simple foolishness in his eyes still couldn’t be hidden and was bubbling out.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Shen. I won’t tell anyone that you like to use reduplicative words.”
Thinking that he had kept his boss’s secret, Assistant Chen secretly gave himself a thumbs-up.
Shen Jinfeng flipped through the documents on his computer, and the corner of his mouth twitched violently.
“…The person you were chatting with tonight was my little brother.”
Assistant Chen was puzzled for a moment, then his eyes widened.
“Little brother? Isn’t your little brother… Tiantian?!”
Shen Jinfeng laughed, a cold scoff.
“It’s good that you still remember.”
At this moment, Assistant Chen was like a quail. He didn’t dare to speak for a long time. It wasn’t until Shen Jinfeng became impatient that he weakly asked:
“Then should I still notify the team to make the official announcement on Weibo tonight?”
Shen Jinfeng let out a deep sigh, opened the official Weibo of the live stream, and saw that the live stream time and Shen Tiantian’s name had already been posted. He shook his head helplessly.
“The team has already posted on Weibo. It’s not good to take it back now.”
Assistant Chen shrank his neck and was completely silent this time.
He really thought that Mr. Shen was going to give this live stream resource to his little brother.
Assistant Chen even thought that his boss was quite good to his little brother.
Shen Jinfeng, on the other hand, was the calmest one. He flipped through this already-posted Weibo, his mind whirred, and he quickly thought of a solution.
“You quickly find someone to edit a Weibo post, add Lu Wei and Song Xinxue, and I’ll contact Director Lin Chen’an to see if he can coordinate the two of them to do a live stream together, which can also promote their new drama.”
It was a win-win situation. He could not only use the influence of Lu Wei and Song Xinxue to attract a wave of traffic for the live stream but also take the opportunity to promote the TV series.
Shen Jinfeng had just invested a sum of money in this drama, so Lin Chen’an would not refuse him this favor.
Of course, the most crucial point was that Shen Tiantian didn’t have to be removed from the list.
The little one had accidentally gotten himself the role of a little streamer. Even if Shen Jinfeng was helpless, for the sake of him being so well-behaved during his bath tonight, he had to do his best to keep it for him.
He was busy until the latter half of the night. It wasn’t until he received confirmation from Lu Wei and Song Xinxue’s side and the official Weibo posts were sent out one after another that Shen Jinfeng’s tense expression finally relaxed.
He rubbed his slightly throbbing temples, threw his phone on the sofa, and went back to the bedroom.
He looked at Shen Tiantian, who was lying in bed in a star shape, snoring carefree, and Shen Jinfeng’s head instantly ached with anger.
Shen Jinfeng walked over, pulled Shen Tiantian up, and gave him two flicks on the head.
Shen Tiantian was startled from his dream and his eyes widened.
His eyes were filled with confusion. He lay dazed on the bed, feeling the pain on his forehead, and belatedly let out a “hmm.”
“My… my head hurts.”
He wasn’t fully awake. He slowly covered his little head, sat foolishly on the bed, and seemed to be thinking about why he had woken up.
Shen Jinfeng, who had successfully flicked the little one awake, coughed twice in embarrassment and coaxed him:
“Hurry up and go to sleep. You’re dreaming.”
Shen Tiantian actually believed him.
His head felt as if it weighed a thousand jin. He sat up for a short while and then fell back down, his head hitting the quilt with a thud.
Did I knock him out? Shen Jinfeng thought.
He quickly walked over, reached out to lift Shen Tiantian’s little head, but found that the little one had already closed his eyes and was sleeping more soundly than a little pig.
Shen Jinfeng was both angry and amused. He sighed and resignedly tucked the little tyke back into the quilt.
To prevent Shen Tiantian from kicking the quilt and spinning wildly in bed, Shen Jinfeng directly wrapped Shen Tiantian into a small cocoon with the quilt.
He restricted Shen Tiantian’s hands and feet, leaving only his round and obedient little head exposed.
After doing all this, Shen Jinfeng let out a long sigh, returned to his own bedroom, and lay down to sleep, exhausted.
A night of sweet dreams until dawn.
The morning light was faint, and a little light came through the window.
The butler uncle got up early to get Shen Tiantian’s nutritious meal from the hotel’s back kitchen, then went back upstairs to wake the little one up.
Shen Tiantian had slept very well this night. After being woken up, he wore his one-piece fluffy pajamas and ran to the washroom full of energy to tidy up his little face.
After becoming a little actor, Shen Tiantian was particularly concerned about his image.
He held a small light blue towel with a cartoon character on it and carefully wiped his face clean.
Then he opened his baby cream and evenly applied it to his face and neck.
After confirming that he was a fragrant and good child again, Shen Tiantian’s eyes curved, and he happily ran out to eat breakfast.
Tiantian was not a picky eater. Although the breakfast was very light, he still ate it with great relish.
After breakfast, there was still no movement from the bedroom next door.
Shen Tiantian sighed helplessly, spread his small hands, and said to the butler uncle with his cheeks puffed out:
“Big brother is such a big lazy bug. He won’t be able to be a little president in the future like this.”
A lazy brother can’t be a rival to the little president, Tiantian!
Shen Tiantian lifted his little face, smiled smugly and confidently, and ran into Shen Jinfeng’s bedroom on his short little legs to wake him up.
Shen Jinfeng was sound asleep in the morning when a loud sound suddenly came from his ear.
“Big brother!”
For a moment, Shen Jinfeng couldn’t distinguish between dream and reality.
He had worked overtime last night to clean up Shen Tiantian’s mess. In his dream, it was all Shen Tiantian’s arrogant little appearance with his hands on his hips.
For the whole night, Shen Jinfeng had been spanking Shen Tiantian’s bottom in his dream.
He had finally defeated Shen Tiantian in his dream, and now he suddenly heard the little brat’s voice again. His heart wailed.
Is this little brat so hard to kill?
So arrogant even in my dream. Is there no law?
Shen Jinfeng struggled to open his eyelids. As soon as he opened his eyes, he was met with Shen Tiantian’s face, which at first glance looked like a well-behaved little angel but was actually an arrogant little devil.
His heart skipped a beat. He silently rolled over and let out a long sigh.
Shen Tiantian didn’t understand his brother’s sorrow. Seeing his brother turn his head, he ran around to the other side of the bed on his short little legs and called him.
“Big brother, get up.”
Shen Jinfeng pressed his still throbbing forehead, sat up, and sighed.
“Why did I have to be so idle and come over to bring you a diet nutritious meal?”
After coming here, not only did he have to pay several million in investment, but he also had to work overtime in the middle of the night to fix the little cub’s loopholes.
It was simply torture.
Shen Tiantian propped up his chin, his short little legs dangling. He pushed his little face in front of his brother’s, blinked his eyes, and said:
“Is big brother very idle? Why? Do you need me to find something for you to do?”
As soon as he said this, Shen Jinfeng’s radar began to vibrate wildly.
His eyelids also kept twitching.
Shen Jinfeng directly reached out and covered the little one’s mouth.
“No need. I’m not idle at all!”
He’s very busy and doesn’t need this little ancestor to find things for him to do!
Shen Tiantian’s mouth was covered, and he let out a slightly regretful “oh” sound.
He had wanted to say a good word for the director uncle and let his idle brother act too. It would be best if he could play his little servant, hehe.
Shen Jinfeng, who had unintentionally dodged a bullet, sighed, lifted the quilt, and got up to wash up.
Today was a weekday. Shen Jinfeng had class in the afternoon and couldn’t stay on the set with Shen Tiantian. After taking Shen Tiantian to the film crew, Shen Jinfeng went back to school by car.
Shen Tiantian, on the other hand, continued to stay on the set, holding his script, observing while waiting to film.
When he wasn’t filming, Shen Tiantian would take the camera uncle and wander around the film city.
The cameraman was carrying the camera, and there was also an assistant streamer behind him.
Shen Tiantian’s last few variety show live streams were all in C City’s film city, and the netizens in the live stream chat were already used to it.
[It’s been almost a week. When is the second episode of the variety show going to air?]
[The filming content can’t be leaked either. I feel like Tiantian’s screen time has suddenly become so little.]
[In the other people’s live streams, the children’s screen time is super long. Every time Tiantian live streams, he has to act and runs out of sight. I’m going to cry.]
The assistant streamer would occasionally read a couple of comments to Shen Tiantian to let him interact with the netizens.
Shen Tiantian tucked his little hands in, answered questions while strolling under the city wall.
He followed this path to a corner and was about to turn back when he looked up and saw a man holding a sign, shouting:
“Urgently recruiting extras, meals provided! We can film today. After filming, you can get a lunch box and your salary on the spot!”
The man’s voice was loud and powerful. His bearded face was very distinctive, and his thick arms were full of bulging muscles.
It felt like one punch could kill five Shen Tiantians!
Shen Tiantian was a little scared. He shrank his little head and wanted to turn and leave.
But his little feet suddenly left the ground. He turned his head and was met with the man’s bearded face.
“Hey, there’s a child here!”
The man named Hong Feng poked Shen Tiantian’s warm and soft little face, laughed twice, glanced at the camera behind him, and thought he was some little internet celebrity.
“I happen to be short of an extra to play a little beggar. Do you want to come, kid? I’ll give you three hundred for one scene.”
Shen Tiantian was about to refuse, but when he heard there was money, his little eyes instantly lit up.
“Three hundred? Is that three fingers?”
Shen Tiantian gestured with his small hand, and in the process, he had unknowingly exposed his identity as a little illiterate.
