Chapter 345 Chu Bai Wants to Be a Star
Chu Bai used to do workouts with Yaya. Hearing that Little Demon recognized his talent in martial arts, Le Yi left him on an island for special training every summer vacation.
“Don’t worry!” Chu Bai clenched his fists and said, “At least it will be much easier for me to act in costume dramas.”
He was so excited that Yaya could only bless him.
“Okay, don’t forget to give me your autograph when you become a superstar!”
Chu Bai touched her head lightly and said, “I am going to a talent show next week, let’s go out in the next few days.”
“Thank you, but you are also busy these days. Why not get together afterward? We’ll have a lot of time in the future.” Yaya patted his shoulders.
“I don’t think so.” Chu Bai said seriously, “By that time, I will be very famous. How can I show my face in public at will? It will cause traffic jams and fan riots.”
Yaya shook her head and said, “You are right… I can’t meet you afterward for fear of scandalous news.”
Whether she was willing or not, Chu Bai would take her to the streets and eat in all the famous restaurants the next day. A Miao was happy to see that because she was afraid that Yaya would think too much if she was alone. It was good for her health to stroll around.
“Why don’t you go out today?”
This morning, A Miao saw Yaya coming downstairs and asked, “Having breakfast?”
“Sure.” Yaya hugged her. “Did Dad go to the company?”
“He has a meeting today; he will be back at noon.” A Miao gave her a bowl of cubilose and asked, “Did you eat constantly when you were abroad?”
Yaya was uninterested and took a sip. “Yes, of course.”
The bodyguards stared at her desperately, as if they would kill themselves if she did not eat. What could she do…?
“Why are you so thin?” A Miao murmured and gave her a pan-fried bun.
Yaya took a bite tamely and said, “Chui Bai went to do training. We can watch it on TV in the evening.”
“Do you have any plans today?” A Miao thought for a while.
She was thinking about taking her daughter to the beauty salon to have a manicure or something else.
“I am going to that place,” Yaya said calmly.
A Miao’s facial expression changed. She tried very hard to hold her temper. When Yaya was about to leave, A Miao saw her out.
“That house has been deserted, so don’t stay there alone for too long.”
Yaya smiled and turned around to hug her. “Don’t worry, Mom.”
When Yaya went around the villa of the Shen family, there appeared the tip of a high castle, just like the home of a prince and princess in fairy tales. There was a beautiful merry-go-round and Ferris wheel, as well as some recreation facilities with lovely exteriors.
“Miss!” Her bodyguards came and went like a shadow, especially when she was alone.
Yaya walked into the playground slowly. “It does not change at all every time I come back, all clean and quiet. The pity is that it has been idle for so long. I wonder if it will be lonely.”
“Haha…” The two bodyguards did not know what to say and just giggled.
“Turn on the switch, I am going to try them all today.”
The bodyguards stood under the Ferris wheel and kept watch without blinking their eyes.
“I am worried that Miss wants to kill herself.” One of the bodyguards said, “What if she wants to jump…”
“Shut up!” The other bodyguard shot him a glare and said, “Miss wouldn’t do that!”
When Yaya reached the top of the Ferris wheel, she looked at the mountains and the sea in the distance. There was a moment that she really wanted to jump down.
“If I were dead, you might appear in front of me…” Yaya sat by the window and said with grievance, “If you don’t come back, I won’t see you anymore.”
Tears rolled slowly down her cheeks, and then she pulled a pendant out from her collar.
It was an oval ring with an unusual design. The diamond seemed to be blue diamond, but it was not when she touched it. She had asked Yu Sihan about it, but he just smiled.
“It is something that is very important to me. Without you, I take it as my life. Now I give it to you, please cherish it.”
Yaya swung the pendant and said fiercely, “If you do not come back, I will throw it away!”
Then she stretched out her arms and made a gesture like she wanted to drop it.
However, after a few seconds, she withdrew her hands quietly and put it in her clothes carefully.
“Take me back.” She picked up the intercom.
The Ferris wheel moved immediately and the two bodyguards were relieved.
One of the bodyguards said, “It was so high just now, were you able to take pictures?”
The other bodyguard shrugged his shoulders and said, “It is another group’s job, not our business.”
When Yaya left the playground, she saw a five-year-old boy near the gate, who was led by a middle-aged woman, seeming to be his nanny.
“Hello, Miss.” This little boy greeted her very politely. “I want to ask; did you just enter the playground?”
Yaya saw him so eager and excited. She gave him a smile and said, “Yes, what’s wrong?”
“I want to go in and play, but every time I enter, there is no one and the facilities are not available.” He patted his pocket and said, “My mom gave me an allowance, so I can buy the tickets.”
The nanny beside him felt sorry and gave Yaya a smile. She wanted to take the child away, but Yaya stopped her.
“Do you live nearby?”
“Yes!” The little boy pointed to a villa nearby and said, “That is my house.”
Yaya took one look and touched his head gently. “You can play here whenever you come. But remember you should be with an adult. Otherwise, the recreational facilities cannot be used.”
“Really?” The little boy looked at her surprisingly and asked, “Can I play on them?”
Yaya looked at one of the bodyguards who nodded and walked aside to pick up the intercom.
“Now you can go in and play.” Yaya waved to him and left.
His eyes rounded in excitement after he saw the Ferris wheel and the merry-go-round starting up. He ran in and ran out after a while, shouting.
“Thank you!”
Yaya didn’t respond. She didn’t like children very much and thought that they were troublesome. She didn’t like Shen Jingshuo either when he was a child. However, their relationship had been better since she knew that he was her closest family aside from her dad and mom.
Obviously, the kid was very lonely. It seemed that his parents had no time to accompany him. That was why Yaya wanted to help him.
“Miss?” The bodyguard saw her in a daze and said, “We have reached our destination.”
Yaya raised her head and saw the villa of Yu Sihan. The bodyguard opened the door and looked at her.
“I am going to the second floor. Don’t disturb me if you have nothing important.”
“Yes, Miss!”
When Shen Xinglan came back, he saw A Miao standing at the window and looking around with distraction.
“What are you looking at?” He went over and kissed her.
“Yaya went to the villa of Yu Sihan again and didn’t return till lunchtime.”
A Miao wanted to go find her, but she was afraid of upsetting her.
“Did she said she would come back for lunch?” Shen Xinglan loosened his tie.
“I told her, she also agreed.” A Miao was a little aggrieved because she wanted to stay longer with her daughter.
Shen Xinglan smiled and said, “Is she going to come back?”
Yaya walked slowly outside the window, followed by her bodyguards from a safe distance.
“Mom!” Yaya opened the door and said, “Dad? You are back!”
A Miao changed her facial expression immediately. “Go and change your clothes. We are going to have lunch.”
When they were having lunch, Shen Xinglan asked suddenly, “Yaya, do you have anything to do this afternoon?”
“No. What’s wrong?”
“Let’s go to the cinema!” Shen Xinglan saw A Miao’s eyes light up and he began to scold Yu Sihan in mind.
A Miao didn’t have much time to get along with Yaya during her childhood because of Yu Sihan, especially in the first two years after Shen Jingshuo was born. Yaya lived with Yu Sihan almost every day.
He knew how much A Miao loved Yaya. Now that Yaya had returned without that nuisance, they could have more time to get along with each other.
Shen Jingshuo thought, “Did my parents pick me up in the trash can?”
“The cinema?” Yaya looked at Shen Xinglan and turned to look at A Miao curiously. “Mom, do you want to go?”
A Miao nodded immediately and said, “Yes, of course. There is a movie about supernatural and martial arts that has come out recently.”
“Okay, I’ll buy the tickets online.” Yaya picked up the phone.
Shen Xinglan took a look at A Miao and said, “We can have dinner outside.”
“When we come back, we can see Chu Bai’s program,” Yaya added.
Chu Bai was looking at the girl who was in front of him with innocence.
“You didn’t say you wanted it, so I took it.”
The girl in front of him wore a white T-shirt and jeans of the same style as him. She had fair skin and a lovely face, like a typical hypocritical bitch.
“But… what can I do now?” Her voice was sweet and exposed her character.
Chu Bai looked at his watch and said, “I don’t know. The competition will start in 10 minutes. You had better hurry.”
He left after saying it. The girl was standing there, dumbfounded.
“Shanshan?” A few boys and girls wearing the same clothes came over and asked her curiously when they saw her crying, “What’s wrong? It’s about to start. The director called us!”
The girl named Shanshan burst into tears. “I don’t have my prop. I can’t perform my planned program.”
“What?” A girl looked at the prop box and said, “You said you wanted the umbrella in the morning. Didn’t you tell others? Did someone take it?”
A beautiful boy furrowed his brows and said, “We had discussed it at noon, but you were not here.”
“But I mentioned it before!” Zhang Shanshan wiped her tears and said with dissatisfaction.
Another girl snorted and said, “Don’t be silly. This is a talent show, not a children’s game. Did you mention it before? Did anyone hear it? Where did you go at noon? You can’t blame others, because it is your own fault.”
A boy stood up and eased the situation. “Oh, forget it. It is too late to say that. You can go to ask the staff if they have an umbrella.”
Thereafter, everyone went backstage, waiting for the director’s instruction.
Zhang Shanshan stamped her feet and glared angrily at Chu Bai, who was waiting backstage. Then she turned around and ran out.
“Doctor…” In a pure white room, row upon row of precision instruments flickered ceaselessly. Some old men were busy working among a pile of bottles.
An old man with a shaggy beard among them kept a serious face and said, “You can go out if you have nothing to say.”
