After washing up, Yang Qiaoqiao went back to her room and gently kissed her two children's tender little faces. Just as she was about to go to bed, the phone rang.
She answered the phone, and Huo Beixiao's cold voice came from the other end, "I told the Xia family today that I'm returning their old house to them."
Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia have now moved back to Fusen Road.
Yang Qiaoqiao already knew about this news; Zhou Yang had called her when the Xia family first moved.
But now that Huo Beixiao had personally called to discuss this matter, she still politely and distantly said, "Thank you."
After that, the two remained silent for a long time.
After a moment of silence, Yang Qiaoqiao said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
Huo Beixiao felt as if he had a thousand words stuck in his throat, unable to speak them. In the end, he could only utter two words: "Good night."
the next day.
When Yang Qiaoqiao got up with the two little ones, Qiao Haifan had already arrived.
As soon as she came downstairs, Qiao Haifan naturally took An'an from her arms and pinched An'an's soft little face. "An'an, did you miss your uncle?"
An An glanced at Qiao Haifan, her cold face expressionless, and gave him no response.
Lele, who was being held by Lin Xiaohui, became anxious, "I miss Lele..."
As Lele spoke, she stretched out her small, lotus-root-like hands to Qiao Haifan, asking for a hug.
Qiao Haifan's eyes lit up with a smile. He quickly took An'an in one arm and Lele in the other, holding the two little ones in his arms.
While having breakfast, Qiao Haifan discussed with Yang Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, An'an and Lele will be one year old in a few days. I've booked a hotel and will hold a birthday party for An'an and Lele then."
Yang Qiaoqiao declined, "No need. It's just a child's birthday. It's enough for relatives and friends to get together. There's no need to make a big fuss."
An An Le Le was once kidnapped by Zhang Wei and Jiang Yi Ran.
This incident still left Yang Qiaoqiao with considerable psychological trauma.
So until she is strong enough, she doesn't want to expose her two children to the public anymore.
Qiao Haifan looked at Yang Qiaoqiao and roughly understood what she was worried about. He smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, then I'll help you decorate the house properly and give us a peaceful and happy first birthday celebration."
Qiao Haifan said this to the two little ones sitting in the baby chair.
An An looked at Qiao Haifan, her bright, large, black grape-like eyes lighting up.
After tilting her head and looking at Qiao Haifan for a while, Lele grinned, revealing eight newly grown baby teeth, and clapped her hands, laughing happily, "Birthday, sister, Lele, birthday!"
Qiao Haifan smiled lovingly and reached out to rub Lele's little head.
On the other side, Lin Xiaohui looked at the two children's reactions and was a little worried. "Qiaoqiao, do you think we should take An'an for a special check-up when we have time?"
Lele can already utter two-word phrases, why can't An'an speak yet?
Upon hearing her grandmother's words, An'an immediately looked up at her.
But after only one glance, she lowered her head again and focused on eating the vegetable and lean meat porridge and steamed egg custard that she had specially prepared for them with her small spoon.
Yang Qiaoqiao looked at her daughter, reached out and rubbed her little head, and said, "Mom, no need. When An'an had her check-up, the doctor said that her hearing and everything else were normal, and her learning ability is also very strong. She may not be talking now just because she doesn't want to."
When An'an heard her mother say this, she looked up and gave her a knowing look.
Then, she glanced disdainfully at her silly younger brother next to her, who was grinning foolishly and drooling.
If speaking is like her silly younger brother, spouting out one or two words at a time, then she wouldn't speak at all; that would be incredibly childish.
Yang Qiaoqiao looked at her daughter's precocious manner and was both amused and exasperated. This little girl's sense of self seemed a bit too advanced.
Lin Xiaohui always accompanied An An and Le Le to their pediatric check-ups.
Hearing her daughter's words, she recalled what the doctor had said when her two grandsons had their checkups, and she felt a little relieved.
After breakfast, Yang Qiaoqiao cupped her son and daughter's little faces and kissed each of them before saying goodbye.
Qiao Haifan also told the two little ones that he would come back to play with them in the afternoon.
Today, the two of them are going to audition for actresses for a movie that is about to start filming.
Although Qiao Haifan's drama promotes traditional Chinese embroidery culture, the culture is perfectly integrated into the plot.
The story tells of thirteen beautiful embroiderers aged 18 to 24 during the War of Resistance against Japan. To defend their country, they used their beauty and embroidery needles as weapons to lure and kill the enemy, helping Chinese soldiers drive the invaders out of China. In the end, all thirteen girls sacrificed their lives for the country in order to win the war.
The movie features a scene where thirteen embroiderers embroider their own last beautiful dress, put it on, and calmly face their deaths.
The clothes they wore were sponsored by Yang Qiaoqiao, who also invested nearly half of the film's production budget.
When Yang Qiaoqiao arrived at the interview site with Qiao Haifan, although it was not yet time for the interview to start, many young and beautiful women had already lined up outside the interview site.
Their interviews were held directly at the drama academy, and most of the interviewees were female students from the school.
They are all professionally trained, and both have good looks and temperament.
In the past two years, with the rapid development of the entertainment and film industries in Hong Kong, many young people have begun to aspire to step onto the big screen and become big stars.
