Ning Qiluo's film crew had just finished work, and the makeup artist was removing her makeup and hair.
She's in Venice, currently filming a Western fantasy movie. It's a big-budget production with very complex costumes and props. She plays the lead role of a noble countess. Aside from her simple look as a young girl, she wears elaborate and formal attire throughout the film, making her overall styling one of the most intricate and complex in the entire movie.
I start doing makeup and hair at 5 a.m. every morning and don't finish until 9 p.m. to remove my makeup and hair.
It's not that the shooting time is long, but mainly that her makeup and hair are complicated and troublesome to do, so it basically takes all day.
While she was removing her makeup and hair, she made a video call to Jiang Yingchi.
When the call connected, Ning Qiluo kissed the screen and asked, "Did you miss me? I missed you. I'll be back in two days. What do you want? I'll bring it for you. But I probably can't bring much. I brought a lot of nice things for Wanwan, so my suitcase probably won't be full."
Jiang Yingchi looked at the person she had been longing for in the video.
One second I heard her ask him what he wanted, and the next second I heard her say that she had brought things for her son!
"You've been away on a business trip for almost a month, and all you've been thinking about is your son?" Jiang Yingchi's tone was tinged with displeasure.
Ning Qiluo smiled ingratiatingly: "You've been to Venice four times this month, so don't argue with your son. I rarely spend time with him. Whatever you want, I'll give it to you when I get back."
That was a bit provocative.
This made Jiang Yingchi's heart flutter.
"What time is your flight?" he asked.
Ning Qiluo was so engrossed in filming that she forgot to ask the makeup artist to pause the makeup and hair removal process so she could retrieve her schedule. Flipping to her recent schedule, she said, "My flight is at 10 PM, but there's a time difference. You should go to work or rest as usual, don't wait for me. Also, after I adjust to the time difference, I have another event: the SRR international brand's first store opening in China, and I've been invited to the ribbon-cutting ceremony."
After listening to Ning Qiluo's rambling words.
Jiang Yingchi's mood was somewhat affected. "Aren't you going to ask me anything?"
Ning Qiluo was clearly taken aback for a moment: "Huh? What did I ask you?"
Jiang Yingchi: "..."
Perhaps she was really too busy filming to react immediately, because Ning Qiluo didn't realize what was happening at first and even asked him a silly question.
When Ning Qiluo realized this, she felt a little embarrassed, both sorry for him and wanting to laugh, but she held back her laughter and then told him some good news: "My schedule will be blank for a week after the ribbon-cutting ceremony, which means..."
Before Ning Qiluo could finish speaking, she already saw a smile gradually spreading across Jiang Yingchi's lips in the video.
However, the next second, Jiang Wanwan stole the spotlight.
Jiang Wanwan, who had been planning this for a long time, could only watch his parents video call longingly at first, without a chance to participate. But he really wanted to video call with his mother. Last time, he only chatted with her for two minutes before his father took the call away again, which made him very angry.
This time, he snatched it away in one go, as if afraid his father would take it away again before he would have time to speak, and blurted out in one breath:
"Mommy, it's me, Marumaru. Mommy, do you miss Marumaru? Marumaru misses you so much, so much. If you can bring me snacks when you come back, I'll miss you even more. Okay, goodbye, Mommy."
He spoke it all in one breath, without pausing.
After she finished speaking, Jiang Wanwan handed the phone back to Jiang Yingchi, being exceptionally obedient: "Daddy, I'm done, you can continue."
