Chapter 10
Floating life?
The moment she saw these two words, Xu Su subconsciously exited the chat page, but after searching through all the apps on her phone, she realized that she had deleted the game long ago, and even now the game's installation package could no longer be found on the entire Internet.
That’s right, how could a game that few people played five years ago still exist today?
What a coincidence, they are both called "Floating Life".
She looked at the picture again and felt that fate was truly wonderful. At least she had never seen such beautiful eyes in real life, so beautiful... the eyes were almost the same as those of the children in the game.
If the game were still around, my cub would be ten years old now, much taller and prettier.
But it doesn’t matter if he’s not here. I don’t seem to have that much energy and patience to deal with a game character right now.
At this time, at Kan Qi's house, Xiao An hid in the corner and nervously observed the owner who had been guarding the garden all morning. He didn't know what was so good about the newly leveled land.
Oh no, there is a flower planted in the middle.
I heard that Xiao Fusheng bought it with the prize money from a competition. There is only one plant planted in the huge garden, and the small buds that are about to bloom are in danger of falling.
But now the boss's expression looked a little... scary, as if he wanted to pull this poor flower up by the roots and stem.
In order to prevent the boss from doing anything, Xiao An walked over and said, "Boss, Sister Huan said they are on their way back. Should I cook now?"
Kan Qi raised his eyes slightly and took a look at the gloomy and depressing weather.
Just like his mood at the moment, it has been like this since the favorability was unlocked.
[Ding, favorability unlocked!]
Current favorability of the child: 0. 】
Why?
When Kan Qi thought back on his life over the past 28 years, he had only asked himself why twice.
One is when millions of people are pointing at you to quit the circle.
The second is now.
The child could recognize him just by his voice and followed him back without any precautions. He bought flowers and medicine for him during the competition, and now he tells him that his favorability towards him is 0.
absurd.
Perhaps because it knows what these hosts are thinking, the system also thoughtfully provides tips on raising cubs.
[A baby's reliance on his parents is solely due to their upbringing. Apart from that, his parents are just strangers to him. If you want to win his affection, please do your best. The system will update his mood in real time based on the affection between him and his parents.]
No wonder I haven’t seen any cub-raising calendars since the kids went out today.
So it’s because the favorability is low.
But the current system is different from the previous one. There are no daily tasks and no mall to please Zizi. He can only judge what Zizi wants based on her usual reactions.
Kan Qi frowned. What did his parents mean?
No, didn’t he keep her by his side because Zizi liked to rely on him?
How did it become that I have to keep her by my side and make her like me?
[After playing outside all day, I'm a little hungry. Do you want to cook something? ]
Kan Qi stood up subconsciously, and when he reacted, he was already standing at the kitchen door.
“…”
"Dad!" came a voice from the door.
Kan Qicai turned around and saw Little Cannonball rushing over with a lot of things in his arms: "For Daddy!"
Kan Qi's throat moved slightly, but he couldn't say anything harsh.
He carried the child to the dining table, and the other party was still carefully writing his "medical instructions" on each packet of medicine.
"Floating life."
"Yes, yes."
"If I wasn't..."
He asked half of the question, but it got stuck in his throat and he couldn't make a sound.
Xiao Fusheng waited for a long time but his father didn't say anything, so he raised his head from the pile of medicine and pushed the written medicine over to him: "Dad, what do you say?"
Noticing that her father looked unhappy, she tiptoed on the crossbar of the chair, one small hand supporting the tabletop, and reached out with the other to touch her father's forehead: "Dad, are you sick again?"
Even without the reminder of the cub-raising calendar, you can see that those beautiful eyes are full of worry and tension.
Kan Qi rubbed his fingertips unconsciously and suddenly felt that he was too despicable.
He used the pros and cons of weighing things in the adult world on an ignorant child.
"No," he said.
Chen Huan, who was standing next to him, noticed something and sneered, "Even if you were a dog on the street, she would buy medicine if she saw you."
Kan Qi glanced sideways: "What?"
"Today she met a little boy who was feeling unwell, and she even used her winnings to buy him medicine," Chen Huan said. "But the child ran away and left his phone with Xiao Fusheng."
To prove what his aunt said was true, Xiao Fusheng took out the phone that his brother had given him: "He said, call me and pay me back."
Kan Qi was not interested in this, but he thought that it was time to give his child a mobile phone. Unlike other children, she could use a mobile phone.
Seeing that his father was fine, Xiao Fusheng excitedly began to repeat to him the fun things outside: "Dad, I met a lot of people today."
The speed of her speech could no longer keep up with the speed of her brain. She stood up on the stool and danced around, even though her voice was hoarse.
They were just some ordinary little things, but they were so vivid in her eyes.
Kan Qi once again realized the difference between this child and ordinary children.
Only when the child said he was tired and wanted to wash his hands and eat, did he slowly lower his eyes.
Chen Huan clicked a few times on his phone. "Your daughter is loved everywhere you go. Today, the owner of that Chinese medicine store added me on WeChat. I'll recommend him to you. You can talk to him yourself when the time comes. I think Xiao Fusheng likes to go there too."
Kan Qi added that WeChat account without saying a word.
Then Chen Huan gloated, "Little Fusheng's speed of communicating with people has improved a lot these past two days, right? If not, I'll take her out for a walk every day. She'll recover faster, and it's better than staying at home with you."
Only then did Kan Qi react and looked over with a dark gaze.
"Well, have you read the contract?" Chen Huan said, as if to say, "I knew it," pointing to the garden. "You can plant only one flower in your garden, but in Xiao Fusheng's eyes, she would rather have hundreds of flowers blooming there."
After she finished speaking, she sat down, her face showing a bit more seriousness and helplessness: "Kan Qi, not only Xiao Fusheng's contract, but our contract is also about to expire."
"Although you nominally have your own studio now, it's still relatively young and relies on the company. You should know how the company will handle your contract under the current circumstances. We may not work together again in the future, and I certainly can't control what you do."
Kan Qi opened the Chinese medicine bag in front of him, gently fiddled with the herbs inside with his fingertips, and did not speak.
"But, we've worked together for so many years, and I've been with you from nothing to where you are today. We can be considered friends, right? Even when you were in a slump, I didn't listen to the company's arrangements to lead other artists. But what did you do?" Chen Huan changed the subject, "It's been two years, Kan Qi. I understand how you feel, but I also have to eat and work, and I don't want to wait for you anymore."
"Don't even mention our eight-year friendship," Chen Huan said. "You've only known Xiao Fusheng for eight days now. How long can she wait for you?"
For no reason, Kan Qi thought of the zero-degree bar.
He laughed at himself. Even if others' score was 100, it was almost the same as 0 now.
Everyone starts from the same point.
"Dad!" Little Fusheng came out from behind him and said expectantly, "Wash your hands and let's eat."
Kan Qi withdrew his thoughts, leaned over, picked her up and sat her next to him, then opened his phone and handed it to her: "Do you want to see it?"
Xiao Fusheng lowered his head curiously and found that there was a contract on it.
With her current IQ and knowledge, she can fully understand the cause and effect, especially the labor remuneration in the contract, which has one more zero than five thousand!
She said excitedly: "Work!"
"Yeah." Kan Qi rubbed her head, "Do you want to go?"
Chen Huan was stunned.
No, this contract is for you to read. Just ask the child directly, what can she understand?
But Xiao Fusheng actually read it from beginning to end. After confirming that there were no problems, she nodded affirmatively: "I'll go."
She wants to earn money to treat her father's illness!
After three seconds of silence, Kan Qi curled his lips and said, "Okay."
Now Xiao Fusheng also remembered that his father had once told him that he also worked in TV production.
She asked, "Is this job the same as Dad's?"
Kan Qi was slightly stunned.
The reason why I was so addicted to the game of raising a cub was purely because this game has a very humane aspect - you can chat with the cubs, and the cubs will answer according to different content and topics, which is very smart.
Now that I think about it, maybe the baby had his own consciousness at that time.
"I saw Dad on the police station TV." Xiao Fusheng said, "It's great. Dad is awesome."
She said: "Dad has become what he wanted to be."
She remembered that her father always said that his work was very hard every day and that he wanted to become a movie star in the future.
I heard the policewoman say that day that my father has become a movie emperor.
Chen Huan was surprised to hear this. How could Kan Qi actually tell a child about these things? She was curious about how Kan Qi would respond.
Facing the burning gaze, Kan Qi's fingertips trembled slightly as he rolled up her sleeves.
"No, Dad still has nothing," he said.
Then he looked into the child's eyes, trying to see something in them that would allow him to continue hiding.
But unexpectedly, the child nodded and said, "Dad, no, the castle is not here. Now the house is so small."
No wonder my dad always said the house was so small he couldn’t even turn around, and there were rats and cockroaches.
Chen Huan: “…”
Xiao An: “?”
Would you like to see where this villa is located?
Kan Qi was also stunned, but after thinking about the cause and effect, he couldn't help laughing out loud, with a smile on his brows, which made the two people beside him a little distracted.
Kan Qi, who fought his way from being an extra to becoming a movie emperor with his high-class looks, is not called that for nothing. However, his decadence in the past two years has made everyone forget how glorious he was in the past.
Only at this moment, I found a little bit of the original shadow.
He leaned forward slightly, resting his forehead lightly on the child's forehead, and asked with a smile: "Then, what should we do?"
"It's okay, Dad." Xiao Fusheng held his hand and said firmly, "I will work and support you."
Kan Qi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"If we work together, we will definitely be able to live in a castle." Xiao Fusheng comforted him, "Although the house is small now, I am not afraid of hardship."
Xiao An looked numb: Little ancestor, do you want to take a look at what you are saying?
No matter how poor the boss is, at least the money in the card is real. Is living in a villa really making you suffer?!
But the boss was very happy to coax him: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Chen Huan wasn't as easy to please as a child, so he seized the opportunity and quickly asked, "So what do you mean?"
Kan Qi slowly straightened up: "The contract is still there. When will it expire?"
"Three months."
Three months...
At this time, there are no advertising resources. The production cycle of both TV series and movies is too long, and you have to select them slowly. There is no time to show the company the results before the contract expires.
After thinking for a long time, Kan Qi said, "Find some variety shows and contact me. The remuneration is not discussed."
After a pause, he added, "It's okay to serve as a foil."
Xiao An didn't understand: "A movie star is just a supporting role?"
Chen Huan didn't think so. She was full of joy: "What's wrong with being a foil? He's played corpses before when he was an extra. It's just starting from scratch. It's artificial."
"It's just that you might get scolded more in the early stages."
Kan Qi smiled faintly: "In the past two years, it's not a small amount. I'm used to it."
Xiao Fusheng's eyes widened: "Who scolded Dad?"
"No." Kan Qi pushed her small bowl over to him, "Eat."
Little Fusheng, who had been hungry for a long time, immediately lowered his head. Halfway through his meal, he seemed to remember something and looked up expectantly and asked, "Dad, how many castles can I buy with 50,000 yuan?"
Everyone: “…”
