I watched the whole thing and felt that Mingxiu acted really well, and many of the things she wrote were very delicate.
"I have a feeling your movie will be a huge hit." After the movie ended, the star stroked his chin mysteriously and said to Kangxi.
Kangxi chuckled and ruffled Mingxiu's hair. "Really? Then I'll take your good wishes. I hope it becomes a huge hit."
As he spoke, Kangxi glanced at the movie screen, his already straight back straightening even more, showing his confidence in his work.
As expected, the movie quickly became a hit after its release. Although its subject matter wasn't the most appealing, the plot was very well-developed, and everyone who saw it found it excellent. Moreover, anyone who watched it once would definitely recommend it to others. Therefore, it gradually gained more and more popularity, reaching a peak about two weeks after its release.
Mingxiu was inside the house watching Kangxi make a phone call outside, and she knew how popular the movie was. The director and screenwriter had been calling Kangxi a lot lately, and there were also many after-sales events they wanted him to participate in, but Kangxi refused them all.
"You really don't want to go? This way, everyone can get to know you." Mingxiu asked with a curious smile as Kangxi walked in.
"There's no need for that, and I don't care," Kangxi said nonchalantly. The audience has absolutely no need to know who the director is, and although he played a very small role, it was truly a very, very small one. There was absolutely no need for him to appear in the interview.
Mingxiu pouted as she looked at Kangxi's calm expression.
She didn't say anything more after that. Nothing else mattered, but a few days later, Mingxiu smiled with satisfaction when she saw the balance on her card. They weren't short of money, but they didn't feel like they had too much either. This balance really made her happy.
Mingxiu was arranging the flowers in the vase in the courtyard when Kangxi walked in from outside. He had just seen off the flower arrangement teacher.
There was a pile of scraps on the table, and Kangxi slowly tidied them up. Mingxiu rolled her eyes at Kangxi's actions. "I already told you I'd go to class by myself. If that's not possible, you could come with me. That would save so much trouble, and you wouldn't have to clean up all this stuff."
“How can that be? You’re so far along in your pregnancy, it’s safer to stay home. Besides, going out to class is too tiring, it’s much more convenient to take classes at home.” He said this while packing.
Mingxiu rolled her eyes and ignored Kangxi. A couple of days ago, she saw some flower arranging videos and really wanted to learn, so she signed up for an illustration class. However, when Kangxi found out, he didn't want her to go, so he paid extra to enroll her in a master's class so that the master could come to her home to provide instruction.
"Look at my masterpiece today! Isn't it beautiful?" Mingxiu said, pointing to the flowers in front of her.
Kangxi nodded. "Indeed, this teacher has excellent taste. It was worth the expense of hiring him. He will give you a lesson."
Mingxiu put down the vase in her hand and looked at him with some interest. "I haven't asked you yet. How did you manage to get him here? I specifically looked him up. He's the face of the recruitment, and not just anyone is willing to teach him. Usually, only very talented people can get his attention and guidance. You actually managed to get him to come. He's quite capable of teaching me all by himself."
Kangxi smiled and shook his head. "Actually, it's nothing. You should know the saying, 'Money makes the world go round.' Most people in this world either don't have enough money or they don't have enough money. Very few people can refuse these two things. So as long as you can find his weakness, he can agree to any request."
Mingxiu looked at the vase she had placed in the middle of the table. She admired it with a smug look. She was really amazing. After hearing Kangxi's words, she turned around and teased him, "Not bad. You used to hate these corrupt officials the most. How come you've changed and are now bribing them to suppress people?"
Kangxi raised an eyebrow and said, "I have not done anything to harm the country or the people. Besides, it's not about using power to oppress people; it's about using money to bribe people. I paid money, and he received money. It's a win-win situation."
Mingxiu raised an eyebrow. "Okay, you're good. You're amazing."
Time passed slowly, and as the weather gradually warmed up, Mingxiu's due date was approaching.
Mingxiu and Kangxi checked into the hospital early on. The due date was in the next few days. In his previous life, he had a lot of maids and servants, but now he was all alone. Kangxi was extremely nervous.
Mingxiu, lying on the hospital bed, squeezed Kangxi's hand and comforted him, "Okay, don't be nervous. It's not like it's your first time giving birth. Don't worry. Besides, you've already made all the arrangements, haven't you? It'll be fine."
Kangxi nodded, feeling a momentarily blank in his mind.
"By the way, have you thought about what to name our child?" Mingxiu asked curiously.
Emperor Kangxi nodded with a smile. "Jing Shu, Ye Jing Shu."
Mingxiu blinked her big eyes. She wasn't very educated and didn't know much about these things, but she knew a phrase: "Jingnu and Jingshu sound quite nice. What's the boy's name?"
Mingxiu waited for a while, but Kangxi still didn't speak. Mingxiu blinked, her eyes filled with disbelief, and stared at Kangxi, saying, "You didn't take it! You actually didn't take it! This is too much!"
Kangxi shook his head. "I will definitely get what I want."
Bah! That bastard actually dares to go all in!
Mingxiu ignored Kangxi and watched him go about his business. She sat on the bed and continued eating fruit and watching TV. Around midnight, Mingxiu felt some water flowing out from below, a familiar sensation. She quickly nudged Kangxi, who was sleeping next to her.
Kangxi quickly sat up and looked at her, "What's wrong? What's wrong? Do you feel anything?"
Mingxiu nodded. When Kangxi saw Mingxiu nod, he quickly got dressed, pressed the bell, and soon a string of doctors came in.
Because it was Mingxiu's first pregnancy and the delivery was very difficult at first, the doctor suggested that she get down and walk around for a while before giving birth. Mingxiu stood in the hospital corridor, holding onto Kangxi's arm, her face a little pale. "How much longer do we have to walk? I'm so tired. I think I've had enough. Can you help me walk back slowly?"
