577 A More Suitable Path
Lu Gan looked at her and thought about how cute and innocent she was. In the future, he would give her such a surprise again.
Song Ci placed the grass-woven puppy with the wildflowers and went off to film.
Lu Gan continued to make up stories for Song Yujin and Lu Suo. Song Yujin blinked and stared at him as if he wanted to learn. His gaze was too intense, and he could not deny him even if he wanted to. He simply carried Song Yujin onto his lap and held the child’s soft little hand, teaching him how to make up a story.
It was the first time Song Yujin had such an experience. He subconsciously looked at Lu Gan, a little dazed and with soft eyes. There was also the look of a child’s ignorance and a little admiration for his father. This was an experience he had never experienced in his short life.
!!
Lu Gan smiled and said softly, “I’ll teach you. Once you’ve learned it, you can make some up for your sister.”
Lu Gan’s gentle voice rang in Song Yujin’s ears. He nodded and focused on following Lu Gan’s movements, weaving stories one after another. In a daze, he recalled how his mother had first taught him how to write. She had held his hand like this too.
“This is called step-by-step teaching,” her mother said.
Now there was someone else who would teach him things step by step. It was his father. Song Yujin did not know why, but his heart felt as if it had been gently poked, making him a little happy. He sat on Lu Gan’s lap affectionately, feeling the warmth of his palm as he learned seriously.
Meanwhile, Song Ci and Lu Suo officially started filming.
Lu Suo followed the script and brought them to the ancient tree.
Wu Chengfei turned to Qin Yanxing and asked Song Ci, “Your mother told us to find the biggest tree. What now? Is she hiding in the tree?”
Song Ci shook her head and looked in silence at the tree in front of her. After a long time, she let go of Lu Suo’s hand and let him play himself.
Lu Suo turned around and walked towards the grass patch at the side. He started to look around.
“Where’s your mother’s letter?” Wu Chengfei asked. “Take it out, and let’s have a look.”
Song Ci took out the letters left behind by her mother and gave one to each of them.
After a while, the mountain wind blew, rustling the thin paper. Wu Chengfei’s eyes were red, and Qin Yanxing’s tears overflowed.
Song Ci looked at the bright and warm sunset. The sun was about to set, and the day was ending soon. Life was the same. One’s life would always be like the sun, sleeping peacefully in the evening breeze. That was why the days of living must be cherished. She turned her head to look at the child playing on the grass. He really was beautiful, pure, and full of vitality, like the morning light waiting for the sun to shine. She waited for the two to calm down and waved, shouting, “Hope!”
The little boy turned his head and revealed his sweet little face. He held the wildflower he had just picked and skipped toward her.
His name was Hope, and he had a dreamy and beautiful appearance. He was like an angel who had fallen into the mortal world by mistake. He was a beautiful hope.
Then, Song Ci held Hope’s hand and walked down the mountain.
Seeing that the sun was still setting when Director Chen finished filming the scene of Lu Suo walking toward Song Ci, he took the opportunity to shoot a few more times before finally announcing the end of the scene. To his surprise, Lu Suo’s acting in all three scenes was not bad. The child was not a little bit nervous in front of the camera. Moreover, Lu Suo’s expression, movements, and even the rhythm of his walking did not change. Other than the setting sun behind him, Lu Suo was a perfect copy of himself.
It was reasonable to say that children of this age did not know what it meant to strive for perfection. They also became bored, and their actions would decline from constantly repeating the same movements. However, none of that happened to Lu Suo! It was unbelievable. He was even more suited to be an actor than his brother, Song Yujin.
The setting sun had already dispersed, and the night shrouded the world when Director Chen was done with the shoot. It was finally time for Song Ci and Lu Suo to get some rest.
When Lu Gan saw that Song Ci and Lu Suo had returned, he retransformed into a little assistant and handed them some water. “Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something first?”
Lu Suo nodded. He still wanted the yogurt and to eat some fruit.
Song Yujin took an apple and yogurt out of his bag and handed them out.
Lu Suo generously placed the food in front of Song Ci and ate them with her.
Song Ci was still thinking about her grass-woven dog head. She immediately spread her hands and asked Lu Gan, “Where’s my little surprise?”
Lu Gan laughed. He took hers out first and placed it in her palm. Then, he took out a smaller grass-woven puppy and handed it to Lu Suo. “This is yours.”
Lu Suo caught it happily, scratching his ears and head from time to time. He was having a lot of fun.
Song Ci watched and silently looked at Song Yujin, worried that Song Yujin would feel left out. She handed over her grass-woven puppy and said to Song Yujin, “Do you want to play?”
