Chapter 90: Hmm, Very Dominant
After Lu Yun finished his work, he joined them to play.
The three little ones felt that this Uncle Lu didn't seem so unfamiliar after all.
On Su Xingwan's end, all the short drama actors had arrived.
During the filming, Director Jiang was resting his chin in his hands, gazing at the actors reciting their lines on set.
But in his mind, he was thinking of that handsome guy from before. If he were to pair with Su Xingwan, the drama would surely become more popular.
Once Su Xingwan finished reciting lines with the male actor, she sat down to rest.
Director Jiang suddenly looked at her, "Su Xingwan, where's that handsome guy you came with last time? Isn't he really going to act in the short drama?"
Su Xingwan: Are you talking about Mr. Lu?
"He's not going to act in short dramas."
"Did you ask him?"
"No need to ask."
Su Xingwan directly rejected him.
Director Jiang was puzzled by her straightforward refusal, "Really? I was hoping he'd come to act. Even if he worked part-time, we could discuss the payment issue. It's such a pity that a face like his doesn't grace the public."
The key point is that man has such a domineering CEO presence, even if he can't act, his natural appearance would suffice.
Su Xingwan felt a bit embarrassed.
The little ones got tired of playing, missing aunty, so they called her via video.
Su Xingwan's phone rang at the right moment.
"Aunty!"
The three little ones immediately shouted happily when they saw aunty in the video.
Su Xingwan watched the three little ones crowding the camera, pushing against each other, all wanting to be in the center of the screen.
She noticed they were wearing Little Magic Fairy costumes.
"Did you bring these clothes over?"
"Yes, aunty."
"Aunty, when are you coming home?"
Su Xingwan: "Soon."
She glanced at the time: "After I finish filming the last scene, I'll be off work."
Ye Yixing approached, "Once you're off, why not come over here for dinner?"
At this moment, Su Xingwan saw Mr. Lu working at the computer desk.
He was sitting upright, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, dressed in a sharp suit, exuding an aura of slight aloofness, like a chill wind in winter, cold yet dignified, making one feel a sense of reverence and a certain untouchable awe.
Just then, her expression matched the little ones'; she felt Mr. Lu at work seemed somewhat different from his usual self.
Hmm, very much a domineering CEO.
That's how Su Xingwan mentally described him.
Ye Yixing: "Su Xingwan, what are you looking at?"
He turned his head to look, then turned back, smiling teasingly, "Could it be you're captivated by my cousin's working demeanor?"
Su Xingwan was startled by his words and coughed a few times.
What she didn't notice was Lu Yun glancing her way after Ye Yixing spoke.
"Aunty, are you okay?"
Su Xingwan looked up to see the concerned eyes of the three little ones.
"Aunty is fine."
Ye Yixing: "No need to react so strongly, I was just joking."
After a pause, he added, "But with my cousin's figure and looks, it's hard for any woman not to be smitten."
The three little ones agreed, "Uncle Lu is handsome!"
Ye Yixing chuckled.
"By the way, I watched your short drama today."
"How was it?" Su Xingwan asked.
"Not bad, but the male lead is ugly, and not half as handsome as my cousin!"
Su Xingwan felt a little embarrassed.
Ye Yixing added, "Next time, let your director pair you with someone more attractive, it'll definitely increase profits."
Su Xingwan looked at him.
"Your thinking is similar to Director Jiang's; she definitely went for someone handsome today."
Last time, it was because Director Ye couldn't find anyone and grudgingly found someone to fill in.
Ye Yixing raised an eyebrow, "…Oh."
The three little ones seemed displeased with Uncle Ye always talking to aunty.
"Aunty, aunty, let's show you around Uncle Lu's playroom at the company."
As they spoke, Little Su Luo came down from the chair, holding the phone, heading towards the next room.
The playroom was large, and Su Xingwan saw it was full of toys, including big slides, trampolines, and more.
The three little ones enthusiastically introduced these toys to aunty.
Words came from their little mouths nonstop.
Su Xingwan didn't really listen, as she looked at the well-equipped classroom full of kid-friendly entertainment options, feeling a bit quiet.
The little ones didn't notice aunty's expression.
Su Xingwan: "Are you guys very fond of this place?"
"Yes, aunty, Uncle Lu and Uncle Ye let us come to play every day."
"Aunty, you should come next time too. Uncle Lu's workplace is huge, we've never finished exploring."
"Yes, Uncle Lu has lots of new clothes here, an entire wardrobe!"
When the little ones dirtied their clothes while eating, they would change into new clothes from the wardrobe, and their old clothes would be quickly washed, dried, and put into the bags they brought.
After touring the playroom, Ye Yixing remembered, "You haven't answered my question: Are you coming here for dinner after work?"
Su Xingwan shook her head, "No, I'll eat at the set and go home afterward."
Ye Yixing seemed disappointed, "Oh, I was hoping to eat at Shuiyun Pavilion."
The Black Gold Card was in Su Xingwan's possession; only she could make the reservation to eat there.
Su Xingwan unaware of Ye Yixing's yearning for the Black Gold Card.
She suggested, "Why don't I give you guys the Black Gold Card? Feel free to go there for meals in the next few days, I don't mind."
Ye Yixing's eyes sparkled, he exclaimed, "Great, great, I didn't expect you to be so generous."
The coveted Black Gold Card was with Su Xingwan, yet it seemed it held no temptation for her.
Suddenly, Lu Yun looked over.
"Ye Yixing, your dad just messaged me, asking you to return now."
Ye Yixing was puzzled, "Why does my dad suddenly want me to go back?"
Lu Yun: "I don't know."
Ye Yixing: "You take care of the kids, Su Xingwan will be off work soon to come over."
"Okay."
Soon it was time to fetch the kids, and Su Xingwan waited downstairs at their company without going up.
Shortly after, Lu Yun and Xu Xiao came down holding the three little ones' hands.
Su Xingwan courteously said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for taking care of them today."
"You're welcome, it was mostly Ye Yixing, I didn't do much."
The three little ones let go of the two uncles' hands and immediately held aunty's hands.
Su Xingwan petted the little ones, she really missed them after a day apart.
"Did you have fun today?"
"Yes."
"Well, you'll be staying here these days. Once aunty finishes work, she'll take you back home." Su Xingwan prepared them in advance.
Upon hearing this, the three little ones pouted.
Su Xingwan: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you were happy here?"
"Happy, yes, but we just miss aunty a little."
If Ye Yixing heard this, he'd probably be saddened again.
Su Xingwan petted their heads, "If you miss aunty, just call her on video."
Lu Yun spoke up, "Shall I drive you home?"
Su Xingwan quickly refused, "Oh, that's too much trouble."
"No need to be polite," he said.
Seeing his insistence, Su Xingwan didn't decline further.
