Chapter 53 My Wife is Charming "Jiang Shunian, you'll definitely be able to leave..."

This blond-haired boy always fawned over Nono, even using his earnings to buy her all sorts of gifts.

Fu Yanli once complained to Lucien, but Lucien laughed heartily, saying that this was Atticus's way of showing affection for Nono, and he was very happy to see it happen. He even felt that the bond cultivated between the next generation of heirs of the two families since childhood would be very helpful for future cooperation.

Fu Yanli once considered helping Lucien seize power as soon as possible so that he could send the blond-haired boy back.

But Lucien refused, saying that Fu Yanli was already doing a great favor by helping him take care of his son.

Therefore, when Fu Yanli heard that Lucien was about to succeed, his biggest concern was whether Atticus could leave immediately.

Unfortunately, Lucien gave a negative answer: "Not yet, my friend. There is a saying in China that goes, 'The darkest hour is just before dawn.' The closer we get to the end, the less we can relax. So I need you to help me for a while longer, which is expected to be after February next year."

In other words, Atticus is going to stay here for the New Year.

Fu Yanli calculated the time and found that it would be more than three months later, and his mood plummeted again.

What frustrated him the most was that Pei Qingrong had also sent Lu Yunchuan over.

"Qinghe's family situation is extremely complicated." Pei Qingrong frowned, his tone tinged with disgust. "A few days ago, people from his hometown came to cause trouble, and that's when I learned about Qinghe's background. I'm going to accompany Qinghe to deal with them and find a way to send their entire village to jail. They're a bunch of beasts!"

“Yunchuan and I have only recently met, and we are still getting to know each other. He is not familiar with my family either. After thinking it over, your place is the most suitable. Yunchuan is easy to take care of. He can bathe, wash, dress, and eat by himself, and he can even take care of Nuonuo. I will probably need to stay for about a month, so I will be troubling you for this month.”

Fu Yanli: "..."

Pei Qingrong considered himself to have a good relationship with Fu Yanli, so he brought his luggage and the little one with him when he came to visit.

Lu Yunchuan bowed politely: "Uncle Fu, Uncle Jiang, I'm sorry to bother you."

Jiang Shunian was quite happy to agree, after all, Lu Yunchuan was really likable and got along well with Nuonuo.

He reached out and tugged at Fu Yanli's collar, signaling for his consent.

Lu Qinghe, standing behind Pei Qingrong, only showed half of his head, looking at Fu Yanli cautiously, afraid that his boss would be unwilling.

Fu Yanli had no choice but to agree: "Okay, leave it here with me."

After thanking him, Pei Qingrong left with Lu Qinghe.

Jiang Shunian was somewhat curious: "What's the situation with Lu Qinghe's family? How could an entire village be involved in crimes?"

Although he was abandoned, he grew up in the city and had never been to the countryside, so he couldn't understand what Pei Qingrong was saying.

"I'm not entirely sure, but I remember his information indicated he came from a remote and impoverished mountain village." Fu Yanli frowned. Poverty and remoteness sometimes signify ignorance, and the evil in people's hearts will be laid bare.

Fu Yanli had some guesses, but he didn't want to tell Jiang Shunian, fearing it would upset him.

Jiang Shunian's empathy is too strong and his heart is too kind; he is not suited to know too many dark things.

Their house was big enough that Jiang Shunian and the servants prepared a guest room for Lu Yunchuan to stay in.

When Atticus found out, he immediately begged to come over. He was clever enough to know that Jiang Shunian was soft-hearted, so he directly clung to Jiang Shunian's leg and said that he also wanted to live here, and could also learn and trade stocks with Nuonuo and Lu Yunchuan.

"Uncle Jiang, please!" Atticus even resorted to acting cute to achieve his goal.

The blond-haired, blue-eyed little cub is indeed very cute. Anyway, we already have Lu Yunchuan in the family, so we won't miss Atticus.

So now we have three super cute little ones, each with their own unique features.

Atticus is the oldest and already has the air of a little gentleman, while Lu Yunchuan is more gentle, and his son is naturally the cutest.

When the three kids discussed things together, they mostly communicated in English. After all, Atticus was okay with everyday Chinese, but he couldn't switch to professional terms right away. So, Nono and Lu Yunchuan took care of him in English.

Jiang Shunian listened for a while and felt like he was listening to gibberish. However, he noticed that Lu Yunchuan would peel fruit for Nuonuo to eat, and Nuonuo would accept being fed naturally.

Fortunately, Fu Yanli wasn't there, Jiang Shunian thought, otherwise he would have been stressed again.

After refilling their fruit and homemade milk tea, Jiang Shunian went back to his room to read the script. He was about to go to the film set for an audition and needed to be fully prepared.

When Fu Yanli came home from get off work, he felt like the sky had fallen.

Even after spending the night with Jiang Shunian, he would get up to check if the two little blondies were sleeping properly in their room. He even had a sudden idea and said to Jiang Shunian, "Actually, we don't need to tidy up so many rooms. It would be fine if Atticus and Lu Yunchuan shared a room."

Jiang Shunian was truly impressed by Fu Yanli's imagination.

The casting and filming for his next movie are both in S City, so he doesn't need to travel far and can make a round trip in a day.

After sending her three children to school, Jiang Shunian went to the film set for an audition with her agent and assistant.

This drama is a big production, so many people came to audition. Jiang Shunian's popularity has recently soared due to web dramas and variety shows. Some young actors came over with smiles to greet him, calling him "Teacher Jiang" or "Brother Jiang". Jiang Shunian responded with a smile and a very gentle attitude.

The role Jiang Shunian is auditioning for is a young master who has returned from studying abroad. He has an extremely broad perspective. After seeing the corruption of the national system, he carefully considers and chooses the right path. He actively persuades other powerful families to join him, but he is not understood and is even ridiculed to his face. However, he has never wavered.

For this role, Jiang Shunian even learned some English from the three kids to prevent the director from suddenly testing his English.

After performing the scene she was assigned, Jiang Shunian waited for the director's evaluation. However, looking at Jiang Shunian's appearance and figure, the director said, "Jiang Shunian, I know you. Your acting skills are very solid and you have a lot of talent. It's a waste of your talent to play this role. Why don't you give this role a try?"

Jiang Shunian took it and was somewhat surprised.

Because he was required to play two roles.

One is a young master who was raised with strict discipline. Although he looks handsome and outstanding, he actually has no goals in life.

One was a popular leading lady in the Peking Opera world, but her eyes were firm, as if burning with flames.

Due to an accident, they discovered that the two were actually twin brothers.

On the surface, the younger brother is just an actor, but in reality, he is an underground intelligence agent who moves among the upper class to collect top-secret information.

Because he was controlled from a young age, the older brother felt suffocated, so he would occasionally switch identities with his younger brother to experience the taste of freedom.

Later on, she even worked with her younger brother.

Unfortunately, he lacked the ability and inadvertently exposed his identity. Just when he thought his life was about to end, his younger brother forcefully switched identities with him and died in his place.

Later, he put on theatrical makeup and lived as if he were his younger brother.

The charm of ensemble dramas lies in this: each character is designed to be vivid and full, with a complete growth line. And these twin brothers, although very different, end up in the same place.

This is definitely a huge challenge for Jiang Shunian. It seems like he is playing two roles, but in reality, he has to portray four different states.

"So, are you interested?" the director asked with a smile.

Jiang Shunian nodded earnestly: "Thank you for your high regard, Director Zhong. I am willing to take on the challenge and give it a try."

Fortunately, he had taken opera as an elective in school because of his interest, and he also audited many opera-related courses. He has a good voice and can perform a piece on the spot.

"Okay, then you give it a try. If your performance is convincing, the role is yours."

Jiang Shunian quickly memorized the lines and studied the character's psychology, and was soon ready.

In the first scene, he adjusted his demeanor and posture, transforming into a refined and polite young master, but his eyes were empty and lost.

In the second scene, he moved with a light and graceful demeanor, yet his eyes shone with an astonishing brightness. Even while singing, one could still see the unwavering determination in his heart.

In the third scene, the older brother becomes the younger brother, and he finds opera very fun; the confusion in his eyes fades away.

In the fourth scene, the younger brother becomes the older brother, and he plays the role of the older brother with ease.

Although it was the same person, Jiang Shunian portrayed four distinct states, which was very clear and captured the essence perfectly.

The director and the others applauded, and the director said with a smile, "You acted very well, Jiang Shunian. You have impressed me. Moreover, you even have a background in opera. It seems that this role is perfect for you."

Jiang Shunian was also pleasantly surprised and humbly said, "Thank you, Director Zhong. I will study these characters more carefully."

Zhao Yuanzhou had always known that Jiang Shunian was a good actor, but he didn't know he acted this well. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Jiang Shunian, you will definitely go very far."

If he performs well, Zhao Yuanzhou believes Jiang Shunian might even win an award for this role.

If it weren't for what happened back then, which forced Jiang Shunian to leave the entertainment industry for four years, she might have become a top star by now, winning awards left and right.

Fortunately, Jiang Shunian is still young and has many opportunities.

When Fu Yanli learned that Jiang Shunian auditioned for a small role but was given an important role by the director, he felt that the director had a good eye and decided to increase his investment.

Fortunately, the role has been cast, but there's no rush to start filming; production will begin after the new year.

During this time, he can take care of the babies while also undergoing pre-production training.

Director Zhong hired a traditional opera teacher for Jiang Shunian to specifically practice his demeanor and singing style, as well as the etiquette of the Republic of China era, all of which he needed to learn.

Fortunately, Jiang Shunian had a good foundation and learned very quickly. Even her teacher said with a smile that they could try using Jiang Shunian's own singing style when filming in the future.

Jiang Shunian would practice at home as well. The charm of traditional Chinese culture is universal, and all the kids love to listen to it. Whenever he practices and the kids are home, they sit obediently in a row, resting their chins on their hands and listening attentively.

Jiang Shunian simply bought a costume online, and the effect was even better after he put it on and sang.

She's got all the kids completely bewitched.

She also captivated Fu Yanli, who had returned home early.

That evening, in order not to disturb the children's rest, Fu Yanli and Jiang Shunian stayed upstairs. He looked at the handsome young man in theatrical costume, his eyes dark and deep, staring intently as if he wanted to devour him.

While being held down, Jiang Shunian still tried to struggle: "You said that as long as I sing, you won't do anything to me."

Fu Yanli pressed down on Jiang Shunian and kissed his lips: "Baby, I'm really fascinated by you."

As he spoke, he reached into the sandalwood box and pulled out an even thicker one.

According to the plan, Jiang Shunian should be able to fully accept him by his birthday.
