My Wife is a Beautiful CEO - Chapter 993

Chapter 993: 993

Chapter 993 A Month

With a gentle voice, Lin Ruoxi replied to her, “Minjuan, whatever it is, you can tell us . ”

Minjuan gave her a grateful smile . She thought to herself, Sir has chosen the right candidate to take care of Lanlan .

“Sir left in a hurry but he told me that if he wasn’t back within a month, Lanlan will be under your care officially as your daughter . ”

“Really?” Lin Ruoxi‘s face lit up . But the whole situation still seemed highly irregular to her . “Is he doing something dangerous?”

Minjuan shook her head helplessly . “I don’t know about that, I’m not allowed to ask about his matters . ”

Yang Chen’s heart sank slightly when he saw her delighted expression . It certainly seemed like she was hoping for Lanlan’s grandfather to never return .

Nonetheless, Yang Chen couldn’t understand why she valued the girl so much to the extent where she would treat her like she was her own daughter .

On the other hand, Lanlan sipped on her orange juice quietly as the adults talked . She didn’t interject and had already finished the whole cup by the time they were done talking .

Lin Ruoxi stroked her hair and thought that she was getting cuter and cuter . She couldn’t stop herself from pinching her cheeks and Lanlan returned the gesture with a sweet grin .

Just when she was about to ask if Lanlan needed more food, her cellphone rang .

Lin Ruoxi picked it up and looked at the number before telling Yang Chen, “It’s home . ”

Yang Chen nodded and replied, “Why are you telling me this?”

Lin Ruoxi blushed . She wondered why she even told him that, it was as if she was worried he would misunderstand her .

“Hello, Mom? What’s wrong?” Lin Ruoxi answered the call .

“Ruoxi, you’re with Yang Chen right?”

“Yeah, we just finished dinner . Mom, I have to tell you something…”

“Now’s not the time for that . Hui Lin’s back and the famous director, Yu Shuo is here too . He wants to discuss something with you guys . ” Guo Xuehua sounded cheerful .

It didn’t sound like a bad thing so Lin Ruoxi relayed the message to Yang Chen .

“Hui Lin’s back? Her tour’s over?” Yang Chen asked .

Lin Ruoxi counted the dates and replied to him, “I think so . I remember that her concert’s in Japan and the USA were canceled due to some conflict of interest . ”

Yang Chen nodded his head, he saw the news occasionally and they did mention the conflict between Japan, USA, and China over the territorial waters . It wasn’t suitable for Hui Lin to have concert tours there since she was one of the most popular artists in China .

This was trivial news to him . As long as war did not break out, there was nothing for him to worry about .

He would be happier if a war were to break out . After all, he had stocked up lots of weaponry that would come in handy . Yang Chen could earn a lot of money with it and as long as he wasn’t involved in the war, he wouldn’t mind the idea of it .

Minjuan sounded excited . “Really? Miss Hui Lin? The singer?”

Lin Ruoxi nodded . “You know her too?”

“Of course I do! I thought she looked very familiar the last time I saw her but I couldn’t believe my eyes . I thought about it when I got home and I realized Miss Lin’s the president of Yu Lei International and Miss Hui Lin’s from the Yu Lei Entertainment! I regret not asking for her signature!” Minjuan became teary-eyed at the thought of it . “When she sings sad songs, it reminds me of the time when I was back at home and it made me cry a lot . ”

Lin Ruoxi exchanged glances with Yang Chen . They didn’t know Hui Lin was so popular that even a nanny knew her songs .

“I’ll ask her to sign for you when we get back . But promise to not make it awkward for her . She’s part of our family . ” Yang Chen chuckled .

Minjuan nodded hurriedly . She already felt blessed enough to be able to meet her idol .

It took them nearly forty minutes to reach home because of the traffic jam .

When they entered the villa, Guo Xuehua and Wang Ma were already chatting away with Director Yu Shuo in the living room . On the other hand, Hui Lin was chatting and giggling with Zhenxiu .

Even though the semester had already commenced, they were still undergoing military training . Since Zhenxiu stayed in Zhonghai, she only needed to attend the training during the day and then return home at night .

Yang Chen was reminded that he didn’t even visit her university when the semester had already commenced . She took care of everything herself and as her ‘guardian’, he should really check on her soon . She might get bullied by others like last time since she was so gullible .

Guo Xuehua and others were surprised to see them, they didn’t expect to see Lanlan and her nanny, Minjuan again so soon .

Guo Xuehua was especially surprised, throwing a confused glance at Yang Chen . She hasn’t met Lanlan yet as she was in Beijing the last time Lanlan was here .

Yang Chen shook hands with the director and Lin Ruoxi gave him a simple nod as a greeting before sitting down together .

Yu Shuo thought their reaction towards the little girl’s appearance was a bit weird but he didn’t say anything about it . He grinned and said, “Please forgive me for visiting at night . I didn’t want to miss out on a good opportunity like this so I came here to talk about a movie collaboration . ”

Yang Chen remembered this . He wanted to film a movie about deities and warriors . Yu Shuo was awarded the best director award in the Cannes and Tokyo Film Festival, so naturally his movies would receive a ton of recognition .

“Director Yu, do you wish to have Hui Er in the movie?”

“How did you know that, Mr Yang? You’re right . I’ve been busy trying to cast the female lead character and Miss Lin Hui is the most suitable one by far . But she’s been busy with her world tours so when I heard that her tours in Japan and the USA had been canceled, I came over immediately . Miss Lin Hui said I didn’t have to go through the agency, she only needs both of your approval,” Yu Shuo said .

Yang Chen looked at Hui Lin and asked with a smile, “Do you like acting in movies? It’s all up to you . ”

Hui Lin blinked and hesitated before saying, “I’m not professionally trained and I don’t know how movies work . I’m afraid I’ll mess things up . ”

“I watched your concert and you are already halfway there . You just need to channel it towards your character . Besides, your aura matches the main character, I’m sure it’ll go smoothly!” Yu Shuo persuaded her .

Hui Lin struggled to answer and tossed a helpless glance towards Lin Ruoxi .

Lin Ruoxi voiced up, “If that’s the case, it would be best to accept . I’m sure he won’t blame you even if it doesn’t work out . ”

“Yeah . ” Yang Chen nodded . “But let me be frank with you . I expect decent compensation for this . ”

Lin Ruoxi rolled her eyes at him . Things hadn’t been settled yet and he was already talking about the pay .

Yu Shuo smiled bitterly . Based on her popularity, he knew he couldn’t give her a basic payout . He wouldn’t dare to invite her without a minimum pay of at least ten million dollars .

After a simple discussion, it was finally settled and the contract could be signed after the details were discussed with the agency . The filming for the movie was scheduled to start in the mid of September so Hui Lin still had time to prepare and familiarize herself with the script .

Once Yu Shuo had left, Guo Xuehua who had been quiet this whole time couldn’t hold it in anymore . “Yang Chen, Ruoxi, whose child is this?”

Back when the adults were talking, Lanlan sat on Minjuan’s lap obediently . She stroked her full belly and dozed off, having eaten a full meal .

Wang Ma explained it to her while the others sat quietly . “Xuehua, her name is Lanlan . You didn’t know this because you weren’t around at that time . Miss is going to adopt her . ”

“Adopt her?!” Guo Xuehua’s jaw fell .

Guo Xuehua sounded troubled after hearing the whole story from Wang Ma . “Ruoxi, this doesn’t seem like a good idea . You’re still young and you’ve only been married for less than two years . People will gossip if you adopt a five-year-old kid before giving birth to your own . ”
