Chapter 54

I don’t know who Cancan learned this clingy skill from, but for the next three days, she held Weixun’s hand all day long, asking her to feed her and hold her when she walked, truly embodying the word “clingy” to the core.

On the fourth day, Wei Xun was going to sign an early termination contract with the company. Cancan naturally wanted to go with her, but Wei Xun didn't let her go.

I called Gu Chi and asked him to pick up Cancan before I went to the company to do my work.

Cancan stood beside Gu Chi's car, hands on hips, tilted head, and asked Gu Chi fiercely: "Cancan said she didn't want daddy to pick her up, why is daddy so disobedient?"

She had been enjoying herself so much at Wei Xun's place these past two days that she had completely forgotten that her grandparents, her second brother, her third brother, and her father were waiting for her at home. She was so happy eating and playing games with Wei Xun every day.

But the happy days came to an abrupt end because of the appearance of Gu Chi. Cancan was naturally unhappy and looked at the place where Wei Xun's car disappeared for a long time.

Gu Chi was stunned.

He wasn't angry yet, but Cancan got angry first?

Little Radish Head has ignored him these days. When he makes a video call to her, she says in a baby voice that she is busy and has no time to talk to him.

Of course, Gu Chi and Qi Sen would not hang up the phone so easily. They chased after Cancan and asked her what she was busy with. The carrot-head smiled and happily said that she was busy cooking, washing dishes, watching TV and sleeping with her mother.

Gu Chi frowned slightly after hearing this. It was obviously just a trivial matter in life, what was there to be so busy about?

He had wanted to take Cancan back today and apologize in front of her, making the little girl feel guilty, but he didn't expect that before he could even open his mouth to argue with Cancan, Cancan blamed him first.

Cancan stared at the deserted road with a lingering look, squatting on the ground with her hands on her face, looking pitiful as if to say "I'm very sad".

Gu Chi was helpless.

"Your mother is just going to work and will be back soon."

Cancan raised her head and pouted aggrievedly: "If Daddy doesn't come, Mommy will take Cancan to work with her."

"Maybe if I don't come, your mother will leave you alone at home." Gu Chi deliberately scared her.

Cancan clenched her hands, her dark eyes darting around in panic, and she said hesitantly, "Mother... Mother won't do that."

Gu Chi smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. We are going home. Your second and third brothers are still waiting for you at home."

When the second and third brothers were mentioned, Cancan's eyebrows moved, and she slowly stood up, saying in a crisp voice: "The second and third brothers are still waiting for Cancan to eat."

Qi Sen and Pei Shen just called her and told her that they had prepared delicious food at home and asked her to come back soon.

At that time, Cancan was still in the sad stage of separation from her mother and was not attracted by Qi Sen and Pei Shen's coaxing.

Now that Wei Xun has left, Cancan has gradually digested the reality of being separated from her mother. Thinking that there are delicious food waiting for her at home, she feels much better.

**

Wei Xun's contract termination with the company went relatively smoothly. Perhaps the senior management took into account the current pressure of public opinion on the Internet and signed the termination contract happily.

When leaving the company's office area and entering the elevator, agent Xiao Shen followed behind Wei Xun.

Xiao Shen thought for a moment and asked, "Have you found a new employer?"

Wei Xun nodded.

As soon as she proposed to terminate the contract, Sheng Jing asked her if she wanted to join Jingtian Entertainment, and the other side also extended an olive branch to her very enthusiastically.

Jingtian Entertainment is a large company that has been developing for more than ten years. It has many artists under its umbrella and is considered a leading entertainment company in the industry.

Wei Xun looked at Xiao Shen quietly, and after a long moment, he asked, "Do you want to come with me?"

Xiao Shen looked at her blankly.

"Gu Ruoshuang's decision to shift the blame to me was something you, like me, only learned about after seeing it. As you said, we're powerless and can't influence the company. I don't blame you." Wei Xun said calmly, "You've been with me since my debut. You were the one who encouraged me during the days when I was blacklisted. It's truly not easy to get to where I am today. I don't want to change agents again. If you're willing, come with me."

Xiao Shen's eyes gradually turned red. She pursed her lips in restraint, and a little more moisture appeared in her eyes.

"Thank you." Xiao Shen said softly.

"I will learn how to become stronger in the future," she said.

Wei Xun smiled and said nothing more.

On the way back, I sent a text message to Gu Chi asking if Cancan had arrived home safely.

Gu Chi replied quickly: [I got home and was crying and yelling for Qi Sen and Pei Shen not to go to school.]

Wei Xun sent a question mark in confusion.

Gu Chi simply made a video call.

The camera was aimed at Cancan.

On the screen, Cancan was sitting on the carpet in the study with tears in her eyes. Qi Sen on the left was packing up his books, and Pei Shen on the right was carefully arranging the test papers.

Cancan sat between them, tears streaming down her face, and the two lines of tears made people feel particularly distressed.

"Cancan doesn't want my second and third brothers to go to school." Cancan said while crying, raising both hands, hugging one person's legs with one hand, crying very passionately.

Qi Sen and Pei Shen looked at each other, with a hint of helplessness in their eyes.

"Cancan, we are students, how can we not go to school? Cancan will also go to kindergarten next semester."

Cancan sniffed and said, "Cancan wants the second and third brothers to stay home and play with her."

Wei Xun leaned back in the back seat of the car, watching Cancan cry quietly, with a slight smile on his lips.

On the screen, Cancan hugged her two brothers' calves tightly, sat on the ground and kicked her feet as if she was throwing a tantrum.

"Cancan didn't have any fun with the second and third brothers." She said loudly with a pout.

"We played for so long before the Spring Festival, isn't that enough?" Pei Shen asked with a smile.

Cancan shook her head, "That was on a variety show."

Gu Chi, who was not on the phone screen, chuckled and asked, "How does Cancan want to play?"

Cancan lowered her head and thought for a long time, then raised her little hand and said happily, "Yes!"

Qi Sen: “Hmm?”

Cancan said loudly: "Cancan wants to travel with Daddy, Mommy, Second Brother and Third Brother!"

Pei Shen frowned: "But my second and third brothers start school the day after tomorrow, so they only have one day to go out and travel."

Hearing this, Cancan lowered her head and looked at the dark carpet gloomily.

Qi Sen rubbed her head and comforted her: "Since we can't go traveling, we can go out for a day and have a picnic, okay?"

Cancan raised her little head slightly and repeated Qi Sen's words in a daze.

"Outing?"

"Um."

Qi Sen looked at Gu Chi's phone, walked over, pointed it at the camera, and asked, "Wei Xun, are you free tomorrow?"

Wei Xun: “Yes.”

Cancan hurried over, stood in front of the phone and said with a smile: "Then Mom can also go on an outing with Cancan!"

Wei Xun nodded towards his hands, his eyes softening.

**

The outing was thus decided.

Gu Jueyan and Bai Manshu were unable to return after the New Year because they went abroad for meetings and project cooperation discussions. Except for them, everyone else went back to attend the dinner.

In addition, Cancan also invited Wan Yao, who treated Pei Shen.

When this name was mentioned, Sheng Jing asked in confusion: "Why would Cancan want to invite her?"

Cancan chuckled.

"Sister Taotao is the Peach Fairy, and my second and third brothers, as well as our entire family, are all immortals. Of course, we have to invite Sister Yaoxian to today's immortal conference."

Sheng Jing's memory of his previous life only stayed in the dream he had, and he had no idea about the medicine fairy that Cancan mentioned.

The next morning, Gu Chi got up very early.

He made an appointment with Wei Xun last night to pick her up at Gu's house in the morning, and then they would all go together.

The two of them communicated more frequently because of Cancan. During the majority of the day after Cancan returned home, Gu Chi would take the initiative to tell Wei Xun about Cancan's condition every once in a while, including what she had eaten and how she felt.

Wei Xun would reply a few words from time to time, and the chat history gradually increased.

Cancan doesn’t know this.

In the morning, she woke up at around six o'clock as usual.

Taotao accompanied her downstairs to play for a while, and when it was time for breakfast, she carried Cancan to the dining table.

Cancan held the pig bun and took a bite. Just when she was about to ask Taotao's second and third brothers why they hadn't come down yet, Gu Chi walked down the stairs slowly. He was well-mannered and wearing a black coat. He looked energetic, elegant and handsome. From a distance, he had some of Qi Sen's previous temperament.

Taotao seemed to be petrified, holding the spoon in her hand blankly, looking at Gu Chi in surprise.

The Emperor looks like he's going on a date.

Cancan stared at Gu Chi blankly for a long time, and then exclaimed in a baby voice: "Daddy, you look so handsome today."

Gu Chi coughed twice, trying to suppress his inner joy and pride, and whispered, "Is it handsome?"

Cancan nodded repeatedly like a little chick pecking at rice.

"So handsome~"

Gu Chi pursed his lips and smiled.

"I'm going out. You stay home and have breakfast."

Tao Tao asked curiously, "Where is the Emperor going?"

She just wanted to know who was the person who could make the Emperor get up early, contrary to his usual behavior, and dress up specially.

Gu Chi said calmly, "Go pick up Wei Xun."

When Cancan heard this, he quickly stuffed the custard bun into his mouth, jumped down from the stool, trotted all the way to the door, sat down on his designated small stool and began to change his shoes.

Gu Chi looked at her actions, was stunned for a moment, and asked: "Cancan, what are you doing?"

"Hu Jie Lang Qin ya~" Cancan, who was stuffed with food like a little puffer fish, stuttered incoherently.

Tao Tao explained: "The little princess said she was going to pick up her mother."

Gu Chi nodded to show that he knew.

He frowned and said, "Cancan, Daddy will go and pick her up, you just have a good breakfast at home."

Cancan shook her head, tried hard to swallow the bag, and said in a baby voice: "Cancan wants to take it too. Cancan misses mommy so much."

Taotao looked at Gu Chi, whose face was stiff, and understood everything in an instant.

She very sensibly picked up Cancan and jokingly said, "Cancan, the Emperor is going to do great things. You'd better not be a light bulb, right, Emperor?"

Gu Chi was stunned.

After realizing what was happening, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she pinched her ears uncomfortably, saying awkwardly, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Cancan struggled to jump out of Taotao's arms, tilted his head and pointed at himself and asked seriously: "Cancan can't shine, how can he be a light bulb?"

After saying that, he pointed to the shoes he had put on and said, "Cancan is ready. Daddy, let's go!"

Gu Chi paused and looked quietly at Cancan who was looking at him seriously beside the dim light, and a sentence flashed through his mind.

What a big light bulb.
