"Isn't that right, mommy?"
The little boy's face brightened up as if he had just received the most precious present he had ever received his entire life! As if he's not requesting her to punish other people. Ran Xueyi was baffled by her son's reaction and couldn't help but turn her head at the culprits who may have influenced him to act like this.
Song Yu Han and Guo Yun met her gaze with clear ones as though they couldn't understand the meaning behind her glare.
After holding back the scolding that was about to rise to her throat, Ran Xueyi, under her son's beautiful and adorable persuasion, could only reluctantly nod her head.
Thus, she let free reign over Song Yu Han to do as he sees fit to handle the issue in this matter.
Upon receiving her nod, Guo Yun immediately called Moonlight HQ and asked what had happened. According to the reports he received just after he made the call, Director Fan met with another actress the same day Ran Xueyi met her at her office with Director Xiao. The actress who was picked as the main lead for her film was the rising star actress Li Na. No one knows what had happened after they met with each other at a cafe, but Director Fan listed her in the cast of her film.
Even the casting team was stunned by Director Fan's sudden change of potential cast list. When they heard it was likely that Ran Xueyi would work with the production team, they planned a celebration with everyone at a hotel. But who would have thought that just a few hours later after they saw a glimpse of their dreams coming true, Director Fan decided not to give Ran Xueyi the role and even erased her name on the cast list.
"Isn't this a bit too much!" Adelle was already angered by how Director Fan was becoming flippant with her words, but to think that she actually replaced Ran Xueyi only because she met with another actress?
Ran Xueyi also became thoughtful when she learned of this from Guo Yun. However, just like what she had said earlier, this wasn't something that they should be even bother with. After all, she hadn't signed a contract with Director Fan and they could replace anyone in the cast for as long as it's not set in stone.
"Let's not talk about this… Aren't we here to have fun?" Ran Xueyi changed the topic quickly. She didn't want to dampen the lively mood with this matter. In any case, she can still pick any role she wanted from the scripts she had back home.
Seeing her like this, Song Yu Han was even more determined to punish Director Fan and the actress who stole her role. Although Guo Yun had already said everything, he could tell by the way his assistant was looking at him that there was another reason why Director Fan refused Ran Xueyi from playing in her film.
However, Ran Xueyi was right. They were at the beach to have fun with Little Zhanzhan.
Little Zhanzhan happily sat up from where he was lying on his mother's lap and pointed at the sea, "Mommy, can we look for sharksh there? I shee in TV that sharksh appear when we shwim in the shea… Will they come if we shwim there?"
Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han: "...."
Adelle and Guo Yun: "..."
Ran Xueyi looked at the sea across them and looked at her son, feeling helpless at her son's sudden question. What shark… Are you looking forward to being bitten and eaten by them? She really wanted to know where her son's brain was circuited right now. It was not only this time. Thinking about it, Ran Xueyi recalled some moments where Little Zhanzhan's words were too confusing and baffling for her to understand. But the point was, it was all the kind of things that are dangerous to humans.
"Uhm… Baby shouldn't watch those kinds of movies anymore."
"Hm? Why ish that?" the little boy tilted his head in confusion.
Ran Xueyi found it hard to break his little bubble for him and tentatively asked, "Baby, do you like sharks?"
Little Zhanzhan nodded: "The sharksh looks adorable like a big puppy with sharp teeth!"
Ran Xueyi was completely out of words at her son comparing a shark to a puppy. Well, there were some times that sharks do act like dogs. But most of the time, they are treated like the monsters of the sea. Nobody wanted to provoke or have them swimming around you in the sea. And it was all because of how they were portrayed in the movies.
After calming down her son and telling him that the beach they were in had no sharks, Ran Xueyi finally held his hands as they entered the sea. The water was slightly warmer than she expected which was probably due to the warm weather. On the other hand, Guo Yun and Song Yu Han had to prepare the food and everything they needed in the tent since they planned to stay on the beach until tomorrow.
Little Zhanzhan also enjoyed his time on the beach. He kicked the sand and built sand castles with his mommy. He also collected all kinds of shells he could get his hands on into his tiny bucket. He saw a tiny crab to the left and quickly ran to take it. He planned to save it by throwing it into the sea, but before he could even touch it, a big foot suddenly stepped on the tiny crab, crushing it to death.
Little Zhanzhan's eyes teared up when he thought that the tiny crab died even though he wanted to save it. He raised his head to look at the culprit but saw three adult men in beach shorts standing in front of him. It seems he had strayed a bit too far from his mommy when he was looking for pretty shells!
"Why is a midget standing in my way!" the one in the middle and who stepped on the crab was immediately angered by something blocking his way. He glared at the little pretty child in front of him and frowned. "Oh wait, is this boy a girl? Why does he look so pretty?"
"What the heck man! I said to look for beauties, why are you targeting a child? Are you that type…?" the man on the left sent the man who killed the crab with a strange look in his eyes.
The man who killed the crab rolled his eyes and replied, "Are you kidding me? Just look! This boy looks so much like a girl! Tell me I'm lying after looking at him."
The other two men with the man who killed the crab also looked down seriously to observe the little boy in front of them. It was true. The little boy was so pale and adorable. He really did look like a girl at first glance.
"Hey, little boy. Where is your mommy? Is your mommy pretty like you?" the crab killer suddenly asked.
"Hey, what do you think you are doing?"
When he received another questioning look from his buddies, he snapped and said, "If this boy's face looks pretty, doesn't it mean his mommy is pretty too?"
His buddies didn't want to play along with the crab killer. After all, the boy could have had his genes from his father too! What are you going to do if it's the dad? Are you going to hit on the father too?
However, they couldn't say what was in their minds as the crab killer was an infamous delinquent in their town.
At this time, Little Zhanzhan didn't know what was wrong with these men and hearing the question, he couldn't help but boast, "Yep! Mommy is sho pretty! She's the mosht beautiful pershon in the world!"
Hearing him say that didn't appease the crab killer's curiosity as any child could announce their parents looked the most beautiful in the world. So he asked, "Does she look like you too?"
"Hey, stop it. Let's go to a club instead." one of his buddies stepped in to stop him. However, the crab killer pushed him away and crouched down.
"So, does your mommy look like you?" He repeated the question.
Little Zhanzhan tilted his head in bewilderment. He's mommy's son. Why should mommy look like me?
But despite his internal questions, Little Zhanzhan still honestly answered, "En, mommy looksh even prettier than me!"
