Once she became a cute mother, she was spoiled and became the winner

In the lounge of the Starlight Gala, Xu Xiu gave Jiang Yumeng's makeup a final check.

She lifted Jiang Yumeng's chin, her eyes swept over her flawless skin, and whispered softly:

"Perfect."

Jiang Yumeng was quietly raising her chin to let her examine her, but when her eyes fell on her face, she almost froze for a moment.

She has always been aware that Xu Xiu is good-looking, but when such beauty is magnified at close range, the impact is still a little too strong.

She couldn't help but suggest:

"Are you really not going to change your career path? It would be a waste if you don't join the entertainment industry with your looks."

Xu Xiu let her go and raised the corners of his lips slightly:

"My advantage is makeup. I have no competitiveness in the entertainment industry."

In fact, in her previous life, many people in the entertainment industry extended olive branches to her.

She was young at the time and had some hesitations, but she eventually recognized the truth.

Perhaps the public will have some interest in her appearance, which can make her popular to a certain extent, but if she wants to remain popular for a long time, professional ability is the foundation.

Acting and singing are not her strong points, so there is no need for her to get involved in such messy waters.

With her makeup skills, she can still reach the top.

Jiang Yumeng admired her for being able to resist the temptation of the entertainment industry's decadence.

She looked at Xu Xiu and said sincerely:

"I have a feeling that you will have a great position in the beauty industry."

"Lend your auspicious words."

Jiang Yumeng joked:

"When you become famous and your schedule is full, remember to open a backdoor for me."

"no problem."

After everything was ready, a staff member knocked on the door:

"Sister Yumeng, it will be your turn on the red carpet soon."

"understood."

After Xu Xiu sent the people away, he went directly to the backstage to rest.

*

After walking the red carpet, the stars will enter the venue and wait for the ceremony to begin.

Some special guests will be in the backstage lounge and will not appear until the show officially starts.

On the way back to the lounge, Xu Xiu heard several staff members gossiping:

"I didn't expect Mr. Shen to come. He was totally unprepared and brought a kid with him. I don't know who he is."

"Shh, let me tell you a secret. I heard from the daughter of my aunt's colleague's husband's uncle that the kid is his son!"

"What! Mr. Shen actually has a son?!"

The words of several people made Xu Xiu successfully stop and absorb the key points of their words.

Little Bean is here too?

She looked towards the VIP lounge not far away and lowered her head to send a message to Xiaodouding.

Before she had taken a few steps, a small figure suddenly flew out from the corner and hugged her legs directly:

"mom!"

Xu Xiu looked at him in surprise and subconsciously picked him up.

Then he saw Shen Xingyi's assistant Zhang Zhou and others following behind him.

"Miss Xu."

Zhang Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the person he hit was Xu Xiu.

Just when he was leading the young master to find Mr. Shen, the young master suddenly sped up and scared him so much that he hurried to catch up.

After hearing what Zhang Zhou said, Xu Xiu looked at the little kid with a serious expression.

The little bean also pouted guiltily, but still complained slightly:

"Uncle Zhang Zhou, how can you complain?"

"Uncle Zhang Zhou, this is not complaining. This is giving you truthful feedback. Mom cares about you, so she needs to know these things."

Xu Xiu corrected her words and continued:

"Xiao Rang, there are so many people backstage. It's very dangerous to bump into others or be bumped by others. Besides, there are strangers here. How can you get rid of Uncle Zhang Zhou and the others?"

As Xu Xiu's expression became serious, the little kid knew he was wrong and quickly admitted his mistake.

"Mom, I know I was wrong. I ran over here because I saw you at the window and I was so happy."

The little kid's short hands were behind his back, and his sincere expression instantly calmed Xu Xiu's anger, but he was afraid that he would not take it seriously, so he could only remain serious.

She looked around and saw that someone familiar might pass by at any time, so she had to leave first:

"Mom will pick you up after get off work today."

According to the agreement between her and Shen Xingyi, she can take Xu Zhirang home today.

She wanted to leave, but Xu Zhirang wouldn't let her:

"Mom, I made a new friend today, can you go meet him?"

He tugged at the corner of Xu Xiu's clothes pitifully, making it hard to refuse.

Xu Xiu really felt that he was being controlled.

I had no choice but to agree.

*

Xu Xiu was led to the door of a lounge. She was afraid that there was someone she was not comfortable seeing, so she looked at Zhang Zhou.

After all, her identity is sensitive, and Shen Xingyi may not be willing to expose his son's biological mother to others.

Zhang Zhou understood her concerns and explained:

"Don't worry, Miss Xu, Mr. Shen is the only one in the lounge."

Only then did Xu Xiu feel relieved.

In the lounge, Shen Xingyi was not wearing glasses. He leaned back on the sofa with his eyes closed. He did not open his eyes even when several people knocked on the door and came in.

"Why aren't sister Rongrong and brother Zhuangzhuang here? Mom, I really didn't lie to you."

The little kid's words made Shen Xingyi slowly open his eyes, and his slightly upturned almond-shaped eyes looked in the direction of Xu Xiu.

There was a hint of inquiry in his cold eyes as he just looked at her straight away.

Xu Xiu noticed his gaze, but did not look back. He just squatted down and said to the little kid:

"Then mom will see them next time."

"They'll be right back."

The words came out of his mouth before Shen Xingyi himself could react.

The scene was quiet for a few seconds, and then there was another knock on the door, and everyone came back to their senses.

The people who came were Rongrong and Zhuangzhuang mentioned by the little kid just now.

When several kids got together, they started talking more and the lounge became much more lively.

Shen Xingyi then breathed a sigh of relief without showing any emotion.

After he said that explanation just now, even he himself didn't expect it.

Could it be that Xu Xiu thought he was trying to keep her?

Shen Xingyi believed that he was just answering a question he knew the answer to.

I don't have any other thoughts in mind, so it shouldn't cause any misunderstanding.

After thinking about this, the panic in his heart gradually subsided, and he turned his attention back to the group of children and Xu Xiu beside him.

He had not originally planned to come to today's occasion.

But when Xu Zhirang heard that two new friends were going to accompany their father to the ceremony, they came to ask him if they could go with them.

Shen Xingyi asked his assistant to confirm the schedule and then came over.

But he didn't expect Xu Xiu to be there too, so he was a little surprised when he saw him just now.

Seeing Xu Zhirang happily chatting with the two children, his expression warmed up a little.

Rongrong and Zhuangzhuang are siblings. Their father Su Yuhe has been his partner for many years and is also a long-time friend of the Shen family.

After much thought, he decided that the age difference between Su Yuhe's child and Xu Zhirang was not much different.

Moreover, Su Yuhe was a decent person and had good family education in the Su family, so he brought Xu Zhirang to meet the two children of the Su family.

It is said that children prefer to play with children who are older than themselves. Shen Xingyi thought Xu Zhirang would like Zhuangzhuang, who is two years older than him, but he did not expect that he would get along better with Rongrong, who is half a year younger than him.
