After Xu Xiu finished putting makeup on the supporting actress, she retreated under the parasol and waited for the actors to start filming.

She was concentrating in her daydreaming, but suddenly she noticed that Sister Zhang next to her was looking at her with a strange look.

She looked back in confusion:

"Sister Zhang, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," Sister Zhang smiled awkwardly after being discovered, and then took the opportunity to ask, "Xiao Xu, you are so young and so beautiful, don't you want to have a relationship?"

“My children are already in kindergarten.”

Xu Xiu's casual remark shocked Sister Zhang so much that she was almost speechless.

"You, your child, kindergarten? You have a child?!"

"Ok?"

Xu Xiu noticed something wrong in her words and looked at her strangely.

Sister Zhang didn't dare to say that she knew about what happened between her and Qi Yi, so she could only hurriedly explain:

"No, I mean you actually have a child, and a child this big."

Xu Xiu smiled and said nothing, leaving Sister Zhang alone in shock.

Of course, he wasn't the only one who was shocked.

Qi Yi, who had just finished changing his makeup, happened to hear this conversation and was so shocked that he froze in place.

Xu Xiu and his eldest brother have a child?!

He's an uncle?!

Qi Yi was shocked by this realization. If the director hadn't been waiting for him to film, he would have called Qi Zhen immediately to ask.

How can we keep such a big thing a secret? We already have a child, so the parents have to agree even if they don't agree.

"Teacher Qi Yi, it's your turn."

The assistant's reminder brought Qi Yi back to his senses, and he looked at Xu Xiu with complicated eyes.

Qi Zhen was in a private room in the restaurant when he received Qi Yi's call.

"Brother, if you have something to hide from us, you must tell us. The most important thing for a man is to take responsibility. You can't let women and children follow you without knowing the reason. You have to take responsibility."

After Qi Yi had been talking for a long time, Qi Zhen finally couldn't help but speak out:

"If you are no longer interested in filming, then I will arrange for you to join the group, so that you don't have to think about useless things every day instead of working hard."

Qi Yi on the other end was also a little exasperated and wanted to say something, but he hung up the phone first.

I thought my brother couldn't hold back his curiosity and called him, but I didn't expect to hear a lot of nonsense from him.

Qi Zhen rubbed his temples, feeling helpless for his younger brother.

A voice was heard outside the box, and the next moment the door was opened, revealing a young man with an imposing demeanor.

"Mr. Shen, long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The person who came was Shen Xingyi.

The two men shook hands in a friendly manner and then sat down.

Qi Zhen's eyes fell on the little boy beside him with a puzzled look.

Shen Xingyi calmly introduced:

"This is my son, Xu Zhirang."

"uncle."

Xu Zhirang was very sensible and called for help.

Qi Zhen quickly hid the strange look on his face and praised Xu Zhirang with a smile.

It was indeed unexpected that the two of them met here, but since they had met, they should naturally meet each other.

Qi Zhen is two years older than Shen Xingyi. They both come from famous families and grew up together. Their similar backgrounds and excellences have made them the subject of all-round comparisons since childhood.

Many people thought that the atmosphere between them would be very subtle, but privately, they have always maintained a friendship as pure as water.

After the two sat down and talked briefly about the recent company developments, the topic turned to personal matters.

Qi Zhen looked at Shen Xingyi's meticulous care for Xu Zhirang and couldn't help but say:

"Everyone was talking about you a while ago. I thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."

In front of the child, he didn't explain it very clearly, but Shen Xingyi naturally understood what he meant.

Shen Xingyi carefully placed the fish meat with bones removed on the small plate in front of Xu Zhirang and curled his lips silently:

“You’ll listen to these things, too.”

"I'm not interested in listening to other people's stories, but yours is so rare that I can't let it go."

The circle of wealthy families is never short of gossip. Today someone has an illegitimate child, tomorrow someone has an affair, the day after tomorrow someone's family puts an elderly person under house arrest in order to fight over the family property. There are so many new things.

But Shen Xingyi seems to be immune to scandals. Except in the business world, you rarely hear about his deeds.

"How is it, how does it feel to be a father for the first time?"

This was the first time someone asked Qi Zhen this question in person. Shen Xingyi stared at Xu Zhirang intently, and finally raised his hand to stroke his hair:

“Very special, not bad.”

The little kid was eating quietly, but after hearing his words, he quietly raised his eyes and did not avoid the touch of the big hand.

Looking at the similar faces of the father and son, Qi Zhen couldn't help but sigh:

"He looks a lot like you."

"He looks just like his mom, too."

These were the words that Shen Xingyi blurted out subconsciously. After he said this, even he himself was stunned for a moment.

Qi Zhen became even more interested.

"Oh? What kind of person is the child's mother?"

The child Shen Xingyi suddenly appeared, and the public already had speculations in their minds.

Many people said it was a romantic debt from youth, but this could happen to anyone except Shen Xingyi.

But if there is nothing to hide, why not announce the child's mother?

So everyone has different ideas about the origins of the child's mother.

After hearing Qi Zhen's words, Shen Xingyi's mind unconsciously recalled Xu Xiu and her every move, and finally he spoke with a slightly deep look in his eyes:

"She's a very special person."

Xiao Douding also added:

"Uncle, I really look like mom."

Qi Zhen could see that Shen Xingyi didn't want to talk more, so he just talked to the little kid:

"Really? Then uncle, please meet him if you have a chance."

Xu Xiu finished work early today and lay alone in bed to rest.

Shen Xingyi took Xiao Douding to the nearby city on a business trip, so she had a rare chance to sleep alone tonight.

When I was about to fall asleep, I received a call from Sister Zhang.

"Xiao Xu, do you want to go out for a barbecue? We just finished work here, so it's a good opportunity for us to go together. Teacher Qi Yi and the others are here too."

Xu Xiu was so dazed that he couldn't open his eyes:

"Sister Zhang, I'm not going. I'm too sleepy. You guys have fun."

Sister Zhang obviously didn't expect her to refuse, so she tried to persuade her a few more times.

"I really won't go. I'm going to go back to sleep."

After that, hang up the phone.

Sister Zhang looked at Qi Yi awkwardly:

"Xu Xiu said she was a little sleepy, so she didn't come."

"That's it."

Looking at Qi Yi's face full of disappointment, Sister Zhang thought that the young couple must have had a quarrel.

Otherwise, why would Qi Yi pass the message through himself? And when Xu Xiu heard that Qi Yi was involved, he immediately refused, which clearly showed that something was wrong.

While she was playing out an emotional drama in her mind, Xu Xiu was about to fall asleep again when her cell phone rang again.

But when she saw that it was Shen Xingyi calling, her bad mood disappeared.

It must be that the little kid misses her.

So she lay on the pillow, closed her eyes and answered:

"Baby, did you miss me?"

She thought it was a little kid, so her tone was naturally that of coaxing a child, and it was incredibly sweet.

The silence on the other end gradually sobered her up.

Not a little bean?

She started to explore:

"Mr. Shen?"

"……Um."
