Chapter 84
On this day, Song Shu was packing a set of clothes to go out for the night. Today, she, Tian Tian, Rong Xiaohua, and Chen Xinyi made an appointment to go out to sea on a yacht. The three of them had not been together for a long time.
Miraculously, Chen Zhinian did not cry when she knew her mother was going out today. Instead, she was busy like a little top getting things for her mother to pack.
"The dress Mommy gave you."
"Is this the skin care product that Mommy gave me?"
The little girl happily passed things to her mother. Seeing her hardworking and adorable appearance, Song Shu couldn't help but pick her up in her arms, wiped the sweat off her face with a tissue, and kissed her red face, "Thank you, baby, you are awesome."
The little boy was so flattered that he hugged his mother's neck and gave her a big kiss on the cheek, "Mom, you're welcome."
Thinking that the little guy actually saw her go out without making a fuss and followed her, she asked curiously, "Baby, why don't you want to go out with mommy today?"
But the little guy hugged her neck tightly and said loudly: "I do. But a mother is not just a mother, a mother also needs to play with her friends, just like the baby plays with other children."
Song Shu was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect the little guy to say such simple yet warm words, which made her eyes feel sore.
Song Shu smiled widely and kissed her cheek passionately, making the little girl giggle.
"Then baby, listen to your dad and sister tonight, and mom will bring you some delicious food tomorrow."
"Okay, baby, I will be good and obedient."
After Song Shu finished packing her things, Chen Zonghao came in to help her carry her bag and went downstairs to take her to the pier. Chen Zhinian also asked to help take her mother there, so Song Shu held her hand and walked downstairs.
In the car, Chen Zonghao kept reminding her while driving, "Did you bring a coat? The sea breeze is very strong when you go out to sea."
"Be careful when you drive a yacht. Don't drive so fast."
"My phone is on 24 hours a day. If you have any questions, please call me immediately, no matter how late it is..."
Seeing how seriously he was giving instructions on every detail, Song Shu felt warmed but also a little helpless. He seemed to treat her like a three-year-old child, Chen Zhinian, and gave her all kinds of worries and instructions. She joked, "You're even more clingy than your daughter, and you can't leave her alone."
Song Shu originally thought that the first person she couldn't leave behind when she went out to play would be her daughter, but unexpectedly it was completely the opposite. It seemed that Chen Zonghao couldn't leave her even more than her daughter.
The man didn't feel embarrassed at all, but said seriously: "Well, I can't leave you."
Song Shu blushed at his annoyance for a moment, and couldn't help but glared at him, "What are you talking about? Your daughter is still here."
When the little kid sitting in the safety seat in the back seat heard himself being mentioned, he also spoke loudly: "Mommy, I can't live without you either." It was as if he wanted to compare with his dad how water can be more inseparable from mom.
Song Shu was embarrassed when she heard this. Chen Zonghao laughed softly and glanced at Song Shu. "Look, my daughter and I can't live without you."
"Yes, Mommy, we can't live without you."
Song Shu was amused and laughed, "Okay, Mommy can't leave you either."

When we arrived at the dock, Tian Tian and Chen Xinyi were already there.
Seeing the family of three coming over, Tian Tian suddenly came up and hugged Chen Zhinian, kissing her little face passionately, "Little baby Zhinian, it's been a long time since we last met. Did you miss Auntie Tian?"
Chen Zhinian is not a shy child. If you are enthusiastic towards her, she will be more enthusiastic towards you. She also hugged Tian Tian's neck affectionately and said sweet words, "Auntie Tiantian, I miss you so much. I miss you every day."
Then he said sweetly to Chen Xinyi who was walking over: "Aunt Xinyi, I miss you every day too."
Tian Tian teased her, "Oh, you miss your aunt every day, so do your parents miss them?"
"Yes, I also miss my dad, mom, and sister, and..."
Tian Tian looked at the little guy counting on his fingers and felt a little amused. "How many people think about you every day?"
"Yes." The little guy nodded without blushing, holding his little face, "I am so cute and considerate, of course I think about a lot of people every day."
Everyone laughed at her. Tian Tian looked at Song Shu sideways and said, "Shu, this is incredible. Your daughter has learned how to be tactful at such a young age."
Song Shu walked over and pinched her daughter's little face, saying lovingly, "You are so clever."
After they talked for a while, Rong Xiaohua also came over.
As soon as she came over, she took the lead in hugging little Chen Zhinian and being intimate with him just like Tian Tian. Song Shu felt that her daughter was quite charming and everyone who got along with her could not help but like her. However, when she thought of her daughter's sweet mouth, she felt that this was very reasonable.

Watching the yacht go away, Chen Zhinian hugged her father's neck, her eyes red, her mouth clenched, and her voice was a little tearful, "I miss my mommy."
Chen Zonghao saw that the little girl acted so happy in front of her mother just now, but showed her sadness and reluctance after her mother left. It was obvious that the little girl didn't want her mother to worry and wanted her mother to have fun.
Seeing his daughter's caring look, Chen Zonghao's heart softened. He reached out and touched her head, coaxing her in a low voice: "Mom will be back tomorrow. Then Dad will still bring you over to pick her up, okay?"
Chen Zhinian nodded her head sharply, "Okay, I'll come pick up Mommy."
Seeing that she was still in a low mood, Chen Zonghao continued, "Dad will take you to KFC now. Don't you like the fried chicken wings there the most?"
The little guy's eyes lit up when he heard this, then he became depressed for a moment, "But mommy said I can't eat there often. I ate there last week, one day, two days..."
The little man counted on his fingers as he spoke, "It's only been four days. I can't go eat again."
"It's okay. Mom and Dad are rewarding you today. Mom knows you've been so good today, so she'll reward you by letting you eat. If you ask your mom tomorrow, she'll definitely say the same thing." Chen Zonghao carried his daughter to the parking lot, "Reward you for being so sensible today and not clinging to mom."
"Hehe." The little girl laughed at the compliment, then she wrapped her arms around her father's neck a little embarrassedly and whispered in his ear, "Dad, I'll tell you a secret. In fact, the baby also wants to go with mom."
Seeing her cute face, Chen Zonghao smiled and whispered to her, "Dad also secretly told the baby that he also wants to go with your mother."
"Wow, then Dad, let's do this secretly without telling Mom, so that she can have fun."
"good."

On the yacht, Song Shu drove for about an hour and stopped the yacht on the wide sea. Then, she, Tian Tian, Xinyi and Xiaohua lay side by side on the lounge chairs on the pedals.
Rong Xiaohua handed her a glass of watermelon juice and said, "I really envy you and Tian Tian for being able to drive a yacht. I'll take a test to get a license when I have time."
Song Shu took the watermelon juice and took a sip. The comfortable feeling of the ice made her feel relaxed all over. "It's easy to pass the exam. I'll recommend my previous coach to you."
"Xiaohua, you are such a busy person, do you have time to take the exam?" Tian Tian who was sitting on the other side asked.
Rong Xiaohua is currently training store managers for the Song Shu clothing brand store. Previously, Rong Xiaohua also made a lot of efforts in opening brand stores in various countries in Asia. In many countries, it was Rong Xiaohua who negotiated with the local governments for the establishment of stores.
Rong Xiaohua, who was shy and had low self-esteem at first and had trouble talking to others, has become a strong woman after several years of training.
Uncle Rong once said that Xiaohua's current momentum is stronger than the pigs he had killed for more than 20 years.
Rong Xiaohua took a big sip of watermelon juice and said, "I plan to take a long vacation after a while."
She has been a really busy person in recent years. At the beginning, she was so busy that her father often nagged her not to work so hard, just to make some money, and to find someone to marry as soon as possible, otherwise she would not be able to get married when she was too young.
Rong Xiaohua usually listened to him with one ear and let it out with the other without saying anything. Later, as she became busier and busier, and earned more and more money, buying houses one after another, her father got tired and shut up. One day, he said to her in a trance, "Daughter, why don't we find a live-in son-in-law, and then kick him out after we have a child."
Rong Xiaohua was choked when she heard this and didn't know how to refute it. But then she thought her father's idea was a good one. Otherwise, she would feel heartbroken to think about having to spend all the money she earned on another person.
"I'm a busy person, and Tian Tian, you're also a very busy person. The entertainment company you run is now flourishing." Rong Xiaohua said as she lay comfortably in a chair, basking in the sun.
Tian Tian threw up his hands and said, "Come on, our eldest brother won't talk about the second brother."
Chen Xinyi, who was sitting nearby, suddenly said, "Looking at it this way, it looks like both of you are working for Ah Shu."
After hearing this, Tian Tian and Rong Xiaohua looked at each other and thought it was true.
Rong Xiaohua's work originally relied on Song Shu's clothing brand, and the major shareholder of the entertainment company opened by Tian Tian a few years ago was still Song Shu.
When Tian Tian did not have enough funds to start a company, Song Shu invested a lot of money and became the company's major shareholder based on her investment ratio.
With the arrival of the 1990s, Hong Kong was experiencing the most prosperous period in film and television entertainment in Asia, and Tian Tian's entertainment company also grew bigger and bigger.
At the beginning, Tian Tian and Song Shu were sad about the waves of beautiful and talented newcomers in the entertainment industry. As she got older, the roles she was offered became fewer and fewer, and she became less and less satisfied. Tian Tian was a little confused for a while, not knowing whether she would have any more roles to play in the entertainment industry in a few years.
It was Song Shu who told her that she might as well take advantage of the increasingly prosperous film and television industry in Hong Kong and start her own entertainment company. On the one hand, she could make money, and on the other hand, she could write her own scripts and shoot movies.
Tian Tian was persuaded, and for the sake of her future and her ambition, she opened an entertainment company with the help of Song Shu.
Her company only speaks according to its own abilities. It is not as dark as other companies in the industry. The salary packages it provides to artists are the best in the industry. Therefore, her company is the company that almost every artist wants to sign a contract with. As more and more artists become famous, the company is getting bigger and bigger.
In the beginning, there were other companies that were dissatisfied with the current dark forces, but with the support of Song Shu and his wife, Tian Tian was able to solve many problems.
"Don't just look at it this way, we really are working for you, Ah Shu." Tian Tian and Rong Xiaohua joked in unison.
Song Shu coughed and said, "We call this win-win cooperation."
Tian Tianrong and Xiaohua thought about the satisfying string of zeros on their bank cards and smiled, "Yes, cooperation is a win-win situation."
Song Shu and the others talked for a while and then talked about Chen Zhinian.
"Ah Shu, tell me how you gave birth to this baby. Baby Chinen is so adorable. I wish I could take her home to raise her." Tian Tian felt itchy at the thought of the cute and soft child she had just held in her arms.
Rong Xiaohua also echoed, "Yes, looking at the child you and Xinyi raised, I think the child is so cute."
Chen Xinyi and Awen also gave birth to a little boy after they got married, but the child is only one year old, two years younger than Song Shu's Chinian. She gave birth to the child after she retired from the modeling circle. She then switched careers and became an agent, managing several models.
Song Shu and Chen Xinyi looked at each other and said, "You only see their cute side. In fact, they can be quite annoying sometimes." For example, the last time little Chen Zhinian made a mess in the living room, it was really annoying.
Chen Xinyi also nodded in agreement, "Especially when he cries, I really want to cry too."
Chen Xinyi's son was a night crybaby when he was born. He liked to cry every night. Even with a nanny to help take care of him, the couple were exhausted.
Tian Tian and Rong Xiaohua swallowed their saliva after hearing this. Well, now it seems to them that being single is pretty good. Besides, entering into marriage is a gamble. Maybe they won't be as lucky as Ah Shu and Xin Yi to meet the right person.
"Come on, let's have a toast, a toast to ourselves."
"Cheers."
In the warm sunshine, the four women picked up their wine glasses and drank together with a smile.
