That night.
Lying on her bed in her room, Chi Nao couldn't wait to send a voice message to her mother using her children's smartwatch.
"Sister Qin, what are you doing? I've already taken a shower and am lying in bed."
Qin Yuanyao was sitting cross-legged on the sofa reading a script, the very one Yu Xin had mentioned that morning.
Qin Yuanyao was quite interested in this notebook.
However, the production company asked her to audition the day after tomorrow.
Since she had to participate in a variety show recording tomorrow, Qin Yuanyao took advantage of the free time to research the role she was going to audition for.
She didn't want to answer her phone when it rang once.
But when she realized it was Chi Naozi who sent her the message, she picked up her phone to reply.
"Wow, you're so great! You finished your shower so early."
"I'm reading the script right now."
"Sister Qin, are you working? Am I disturbing you?" Chi Nao's soft, sweet voice came through again.
"No. I'm just tired of watching, so I'm taking a break."
Hearing that she hadn't disturbed her mother's work, Chi Nao continued chatting with her mother with peace of mind.
"Sister Qin, do you have work tomorrow?"
"Yes, I have to record a variety show tomorrow."
"What variety show is it? I want to watch it."
"Have you seen 'Happy Challenge' before?" Qin Yuanyao asked gently.
Chi Nao did not reply to her for a long time.
Chi Nao initially thought the name of the variety show sounded familiar, but it was a show from ten years ago, and she definitely hadn't watched it ten years later.
What's more, she doesn't watch variety shows at all.
But she soon realized that the reason the name sounded familiar was because she had heard her mother mention it ten years later!
The mother said that the reason she finally decided to break ties with Yu Xin was after participating in this variety show. Besides that, there was another, more important reason!
"Sister Qin, what script are you reading?" Chi Nao finally spoke after a long while, but asked a different question.
Qin Yuanyao didn't take it to heart, simply assuming that children's thoughts were so fickle.
"There's a TV series called 'Luckily I Met You'."
Chi Nai's almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened.
This is the TV series!
The mother said that it was because of some bad things that happened after she participated in the variety show "Happy Challenge" and auditioned for the TV series "Luckily I Met You" that she made up her mind to break up with Yu Xin.
As for what bad thing it was, her mother didn't tell her in detail.
The mother only said that because she trusted the agent too much before and did not keep sufficient evidence, the lawsuit lasted a long time and she lost a lot of money.
That period was incredibly dark for my mother. She often felt like she couldn't go on.
Fortunately, she persevered and eventually reached the peak of her career.
Chi Cheese doesn't want her mother to go through those dark times again.
However, if her mother didn't participate in the variety show "Happy Challenge" and the audition for the TV series "Luckily I Met You", she wouldn't be able to make up her mind to part ways with Yu Xin, and she would never reach the peak of her career.
Chi Nai's little face scrunched up in a frown, caught in a dilemma, unsure of what to do.
She suddenly thought of a solution!
If the mother has sufficient evidence, can the lawsuit be ended quickly without having to pay too much money?
That way, Mom won't have to go through that kind of darkness!
"Sister Qin," Chi Nao said in a babyish voice.
"Hmm?" Qin Yuanyao's voice rose at the end.
“I heard from Uncle Mu and Dad today that the video of you teaching Grandma Sun and us the Heimlich maneuver on the show went viral. An official influencer shared the video, but there were a lot of negative comments. Uncle Mu also said that the official organization originally wanted to have you film a promotional video for the Heimlich maneuver, but because there were too many negative comments, they didn’t contact you,” Chi Nao said as she recalled.
Uncle Mu did not tell Dad about this.
She heard this from her mother ten years later.
My mother spoke of this with great regret. She said that if she had broken up with Yu Xin earlier, she might have had more good opportunities.
At the time, she was completely confused.
Although she doesn't quite understand it now, she feels that if she relays what her mother said ten years from now, her mother now should be able to understand it.
Upon hearing Chi Nao's words, Qin Yuanyao's expression indeed stiffened.
"Sister Qin, I think that Yu Xin looks really annoying, she doesn't seem like a good person," Chi Nao said again.
Qin Yuanyao snapped out of her daze and asked, "Why do you think she doesn't seem like a good person?"
“She’s just like all those people who try to please my dad, but you’re completely different, Sister Qin. My dad said that those who try to please him don’t really like him, and some of them might even hate him.”
“My dad also said that people with different personalities can’t get along. You have to be careful when dealing with bad guys and keep enough evidence.”
Qin Yuanyao chuckled, wondering why Chi Baiyi would say such things to a child.
“My dad also said that those who try to please him might retaliate if they don’t get what they want. Those who were once friends might not be friends anymore. So, when you interact with people, you should keep some evidence, you might need it later.”
Qin Yuanyao was both amused and exasperated. "Why is your father telling you all this?"
Do children from wealthy families have to learn about the wickedness of human nature from a young age?
Chi Cheese "..."
Her father never said that many words to her.
These are what Dad said to Mom ten years later.
She didn't quite understand what they were saying, but she thought her mother should be able to understand.
"So, Sister Qin, Yu Xin doesn't seem like a good person, you should keep evidence too. Cheese doesn't want Sister Qin to be bullied by bad people."
Qin Yuanyao was slightly taken aback, her emotions a mixture of gratitude and complexity.
After ending her chat with Chi Nao, Qin Yuanyao searched for the video Chi Nao had mentioned, which had been reposted by an official influencer, showing her teaching them the Heimlich maneuver.
It was reposted by a highly respected official verified account. The repost description stated that the Heimlich maneuver is a very standard and practical method, and everyone is advised to learn it.
However, the comments below were quite discordant.
There are very few articles that actually discuss the Heimlich maneuver; most are condemning it.
Are official Weibo accounts so biased these days? Sharing a tutorial video about a celebrity with scandals?
Why can't you see so many down-to-earth, hardworking, and unconventional celebrities? All you see are videos of stars with a lot of scandals putting on a show?
[The Heimlich maneuver? Great, it's really useful, I definitely need to learn it! Qin Yuanyao teaches the Heimlich maneuver? Oh, then I won't learn it.]
[Since when has it become the business of official propaganda and public education, for celebrities who only know how to create scandals to interfere? Are you all just sitting around doing nothing?]
The few comments that occasionally defended her were met with dozens of counter-attacks from netizens.
