The rich stepmother brought her son to the variety show again ~ Chapter 53 Flirting

There is nothing that can’t be solved by a good sleep. After Chu Rong had a good sleep, she forgot about her worries and went downstairs to have breakfast full of energy.

  Fu Ruhui, who had been sleeping with Chu Rong until noon, was busy dealing with the work that had piled up for almost a day. He drank a glass of milk and went back to his study to work.

  There were only Chu Rong, Fu Nian and Fu Yu at the dinner table. The two little ones looked like they were still sleepy. They almost closed their eyes while eating bread. They were totally unlike their usual fierce tigers who would eat like crazy.

  ”What happened to the two of you?” Chu Rong was the only one who looked energetic. She wondered, “Did Nian Nian and Xiao Yu sleep on the second floor last night?”

  Fu Nian and Fu Yu yawned in succession, one after the other, and took the time to answer, “Yes.”

  ”Why don’t you sleep on the third floor?” Chu Rong held Fu Yu’s head as he almost fell into the bowl of porridge.

  Fu Nian closed his eyes and chewed the biscuit mechanically. The crunching sound was very fragrant.

  ”It’s too late.” He said, “I don’t want to disturb your rest.”

  ”Ah?” Chu Rong imagined the scene of Fu Nian and Fu Yu hesitating and pacing outside the door, and finally the two brothers went to sleep alone in their room. She felt distressed, “So pitiful.”

  Fu Nian looked at Chu Rong in confusion, “What?”

  Apart from not sleeping well at night, he was not that pitiful. Fu Yu vowed that he could not sleep in the same room with his parents. Fu Nian was worried at the time, but he did not expect that Fu Yu’s reaction at night really proved that he was not worrying in vain.

  At twelve o’clock in the middle of the night, Fu Yu woke up on time and wanted to look for his mother. Fu Nian coaxed him for most of the day, but Fu Yu sobbed and said that he would not go upstairs to look for his mother. But he didn’t sleep either. He whispered that he was scared, and then he said he was cold and hot, which made Fu Nian spend a lot of effort.

Usually, Fu Nian, Fu Yu and Chu Rong watched a lot of horror movies. Fu Yu didn’t understand and had no reaction, but Fu Nian was different. He coaxed Fu Yu to sleep, and he was the only one who remained awake in the room. The dark space made Fu Nian panic. But Fu Yu, as a little ball weaker than him, could not give him any sense of security. Fu Nian did not sleep well all night.

  In the morning, the two sleep-deprived children were drowsy at the dining table. Seeing how hard they were having to eat, Chu Rong said, “Why don’t you go back and take a nap? If you’re not too hungry, don’t eat yet.”

  Fu Nian and Fu Yu felt as if they had been pardoned. They left the table like wandering souls and went back to their rooms to catch up on some sleep.

  Chu Rong was the only one eating breakfast. She felt a little lonely and had no appetite. She was going to put her unfinished fried dumplings in the refrigerator. When she opened the refrigerator, Chu Rong saw a large cup of pink strawberry milkshake. Her eyes lit up. She forgot about it. Fortunately, she didn’t eat much just now, so she could finish this cup.

  Chu Rong happily enjoyed a whole cup of ice-cold strawberry milkshake by herself and let out a comfortable sound.

  She finished her milkshake and Fu Ruhui came downstairs. He was wearing a pair of thin frameless glasses on his nose, which made him look more gentlemanly.

  ”Hey, are you nearsighted?” Chu Rong was a little curious when she saw him wearing glasses for the first time.

  Fu Ruhui smiled and said, “It’s blue light proof.”

  ”Oh.” Chu Rong looked at him twice more, “Actually, you look pretty good wearing glasses.”

  Fu Ruhui said: “Then should I go get a pair of glasses?”

  ”Forget it,” Chu Rong sneered, “You are not nearsighted.”

  Fu Ruhui shrugged, “You can get a pair of plain ones.”

  ”It’s up to you.” Chu Rong didn’t expect that this man was a bit conceited, so she praised him for looking good in glasses. He really wanted to go get a pair of glasses to wear, what a hassle.

  ”By the way, your variety show will start filming soon.” Fu Ruhui came downstairs to talk to Chu Rong about this matter. “It will be filmed on Friday. The filming content of this variety show will be mainly indoors, and the outdoor shots will not leave the city.”

  Fu Ruhui pushed his glasses and said, “I didn’t invest much. We are all friends, and they did me a favor.”

  Chu Rong understood what he meant. Fu Ruhui’s “do me a favor” had the same effect as “I’ll make him an offer he can’t refuse” in “The Godfather”. She saw that no one would refuse to do Fu Ruhui a favor.

  ”Would you like to see the contract?” Fu Ruhui walked to the dining table and picked up a green grape. “I’ve already looked it over for you. If you’re not satisfied with anything, I’ll have someone revise it.”

  Domineering, too domineering. Chu Rong dared not to raise any more complaints. This contract must have been revised by Fu Ruhui before it was handed over to her. Chu Rong thought that she was not as smart as Boss Fu, so she did not show off in front of him.

  ”I just have one question.” Chu Rong extended his index finger.

  Fu Ruhui held a juicy green grape in his mouth and raised his chin slightly to signal her to speak.

  ”How much is the salary?”

  Fu Ruhui had expected this. He said, “It’s twice as much as your last show.”

  Chu Rong stared, “That’s too exaggerated.”

  ”Is it exaggerated?” Fu Ruhui thought for a moment. The money he invested was enough to pay her salary many times over. “I have already lowered it. This is what you deserve.”

  Chu Rong also knew that it was Fu Ruhui who came forward to negotiate this time, and for Fu Ruhui’s sake, she didn’t dare to neglect him. Besides, Fu Ruhui should have a lot of sponsorship, and since both parties were willing to fight and be beaten, she didn’t worry about it.

  ”Alas.” Chu Rong sighed softly.

  Fu Ruhui forked a grape and fed it to her, “What’s wrong?”

  ”What’s the point of being on a variety show?” Chu Rong looked up and sighed, as if she was looking for the meaning of life.

  Fu Ruhui thought about it seriously, “For fun?”

  Chu Rong had nothing to say.

  ”Bulang Jun’s schedule is now free, and he will be in the city on Friday.” Fu Ruhui continued, “Are you ready?”

  ”What are you preparing for?” Fu Ruhui brought her two bombshell pieces of news in one breath, leaving Chu Rong with no chance to catch her breath. Chu Rong had not touched the expensive piano since it was brought back. It was not that she did not want to touch it. Every time she passed by the living room and glanced at the piano, Chu Rong still felt a little itchy. She was just afraid that she would make a fool of herself if she could not play it, so she resisted the urge every time.

  When Fu Ruhui was asked this question, he really didn’t expect her to prepare anything. He smiled and said, “Prepare a good mood. I hope that this gift I always give you can make you happy.”

  The gift he mentioned was not just the piano itself, but also the confidence Chu Rong would regain in playing the piano.

  But Chu Rong thought his gift was to let her learn piano from scratch, which was no different from a parent forcing their child to attend a tutoring class. She looked at Fu Ruhui for a while, and suddenly said, “Bulang Jun is a foreigner, what should I do if I don’t speak foreign languages.”

  Fu Ruhui was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: “Foreigner?”

  ”Isn’t it?” Chu Rong wondered, “Is it still a Chinese name?”

  ”You didn’t search for any information about him?” Fu Ruhui stopped laughing and was speechless. “I thought you would at least check his information.”

  Chu Rong said confidently: “I don’t like playing with my phone. I don’t check it often, so I didn’t think of checking it.”

  ”Don’t you often check your phone?” Fu Ruhui raised his eyebrows. Who is the person who is addicted to mobile phone videos before going to bed every night? Fu Ruhui didn’t directly expose Chu Rong’s trick, but his teasing eyes were enough to tell what he was thinking.

  Chu Rong said calmly, “Is it illegal not to investigate him?”

  Even if she ignored him, she could still make some sense. He always had to admit defeat to Chu Rong. “It’s not against the law. But I think checking it out can reduce a lot of worries. For example, Bulangjun is Chinese and speaks modern Chinese, so you don’t have to worry about communication problems between you.”

  He raised his eyebrows casually, and his handsome appearance looked particularly irritating at this moment.

  Chu Rong really wanted to go up and grab his face and pull it away until he begged for mercy.

  ”Why do Chinese people call themselves this? I’ve never seen a pianist with such a strange stage name.”

Chu Rong muttered.

  Fu Ruhui suppressed his laughter and said, “He is not a pianist either.”

  Chu Rong’s face was full of question marks, “If not a pianist, then what?”

  ”I didn’t say that Bulang Jun was a pianist.” Fu Ruhui patiently helped Chu Rong recall, “I just said I would help you find a teacher, and asked you what you think of Bulang Jun? Playing the piano is just his hobby, not his profession.”

  Chu Rong carefully recalled what Fu Ruhui said that day. He really didn’t mention Bulang Jun’s occupation. She just subconsciously thought that the teacher Fu Ruhui found for her must be a piano master or something like that. In addition, the name Bulang Jun was so international, so Chu Rong automatically imagined the image of a middle-aged foreign man, the kind of foreigner whose hair and beard were almost connected!

  ”Then, what is his Chinese name?” Chu Rong was too stupid to raise her head, so she asked humbly, “What is his occupation?”

  Fu Ruhui smiled meaningfully: “Then you have to ask yourself. Bulang Jun only let me reveal this much. This is a promise between friends, and I have to keep my word.”

  Chu Rong wasn’t that curious in the first place, so if he didn’t say anything, she wouldn’t force him.

  ”Won’t it interfere with my work if you ask him to be my piano teacher?”

  Fu Ruhui pressed down a strand of Chu Rong’s hair that was sticking up. “Don’t worry about him.”

  Chu Rong was about to say that she didn’t worry, but Fu Ruhui continued, “Why not worry about me?”

  Chu Rong: “…Why does what you said sound ambiguous?” Especially the second half.

  Fu Ruhui looked innocent: “Really? What’s the ambiguity?”

  Chu Rong looked at his eyes that seemed sincere but were actually smiling, and said with a fake smile: “Has anyone ever told you that if your company can’t continue, you will definitely be a top actor, and you can definitely become an actor.”

  Fu Ruhui thanked Chu Rong for the unusual compliment, “Thank you for your affirmation. No one else has said it, you are the first.”

  Chu Rong: “Haha, I’m really honored.”

  Fu Ruhui smiled slightly, “It’s my honor.”
