Fang Miaomiao said nothing, but smiled and nestled into Wen Zhiyan's embrace, "I just wanted to call you Wen Zhiyan."
The word "husband" could only be uttered when she was being pampered.
"Silly girl," Wen Zhiyan ruffled Fang Miaomiao's hair, "Let's sleep. You have a lot to do tomorrow."
"What?"
"Wang Zhou is not a good person. Do you really think he won't know about you and Cui Mantong making such a big show?"
Fang Miaomiao wrapped her arms around Wen Zhiyan's neck, her eyes alluring, and her voice drew out, "Husband."
Wen Zhiyan pinched Fang Miaomiao's nose, "Cui Tong and I both believe that you and Cui Mantong can resolve this perfectly."
Fang Miaomiao narrowed her eyes slightly: she always felt that these two men were keeping something from her.
"Sleep."
The next morning.
Fang Miaomiao was woken up from her sleep.
"Mom, good morning."
"An'an, good morning. Where's the baby?"
"The baby is eating in Dad's arms."
Fang Miaomiao tapped Wen Yan'an's forehead, "Did Dad ask you to wake me up?"
Wen Yan'an nodded seriously, "Dad said that Mom and Aunt Mantong have very important things to do today."
"Good boy," Fang Miaomiao stroked Wen Yan'an's head, "Have you eaten breakfast?"
"Yes, Mom. I'm going to school now."
"Go."
After Wen Yan'an left, Fang Miaomiao rested in bed for a while before getting up to wash. As she walked out, she saw Wen Zhiyan holding the baby in the living room, looking gentle.
"Awake? Qian Ma is bringing you breakfast."
After teasing the baby in Wen Zhiyan's arms, Fang Miaomiao pretended to be angry and glared at Wen Zhiyan, "You did that on purpose."
"What did I do on purpose?"
"This morning, you were afraid I wouldn't wake up, so you sent An'an to wake me, right?"
Wen Zhiyan raised an eyebrow slightly, not satisfied with this explanation.
Fang Miaomiao huffed a few times, "I even suspect that you and Cui Tong making us watch a movie last time was also deliberate. Otherwise, how could Brother Cui Tong have produced Wang Hui's information the next second?"
Now it seemed that all of this was orchestrated by these two.
"As expected, my Miaomiao is the most brilliant, knowing my intentions so quickly."
Fang Miaomiao was confused, "But, I don't quite understand, Wen Zhiyan, why are you doing this?"
"Because I feel I can't protect you forever. What I want is for my Miaomiao to become strong herself, and Wang Hui is a breakthrough."
"Miaomiao, you are very talented. In just over a year here, you've won both the Best Newcomer Award and the Best Supporting Actress Award. Yet, it's precisely this you who has made so many people in the entertainment industry jealous, even wanting to ruin you."
Especially during Miaomiao's pregnancy, there was an endless stream of negative news online targeting her. Fortunately, with her studio and him, those rumors didn't reach Miaomiao's eyes.
During that time, he was busy with his own work and taking care of Miaomiao's emotions, so he hadn't had the time to deal with those people. But now, it seemed imperative to deal with them.
He had intended to handle it himself, but Zeng Nian said the best way was for Miaomiao to do it herself, to become an outstanding figure in the industry, making those who wished her ill tremble.
This was also why he collaborated with Cui Tong, letting Miaomiao and Cui Mantong go find Wang Hui to stir things up. He had seen Wang Hui's script, and it was excellent. It would be a shame if such talent didn't join Miaomiao's studio.
Fang Miaomiao fell silent. She wasn't unaware of this matter; she just didn't want to deal with it.
"Miaomiao, I'm very sorry I made this decision without discussing it with you. If you don't like it, I can let you play around by my side for a lifetime."
With him around, Miaomiao would never be bullied.
"Miaomiao."
"Ya ya ya."
Fang Miaomiao cooed at the baby, "Baby, do you think Dad is so amazing? He's already planned out Mom's future path."
"Miaomiao," Wen Zhiyan called out nervously.
"What?"
"Are you, are you angry with me?" Wen Zhiyan asked cautiously.
Hearing this, Fang Miaomiao almost burst out laughing but quickly suppressed it, "What? Someone has the guts to do it but not to admit it?"
"No," Wen Zhiyan quickly shook his head. "Cui Tong said you would definitely be angry and ignore me."
"Cui Tong said, Cui Tong said. I never saw you and Cui Tong being this close before," Fang Miaomiao's lips curved upwards, asking amusingly, "Did you forget how Cui Tong angered my Aunt Mantong?"
"Miaomiao, I didn't. I didn't mean to make you angry." Wen Zhiyan was completely flustered. He sometimes felt that Cui Tong's suggestions were quite reasonable. He wanted to reach out and grab Fang Miaomiao but was afraid of not holding the baby in his arms properly and making the child cry.
Seeing Wen Zhiyan's flustered state, Fang Miaomiao couldn't hold back her laughter any longer, "Hahaha, Wen Zhiyan, are you trying to make me laugh to death? You're so funny."
Wen Zhiyan saw her laughing heartily and finally realized she wasn't angry at all. She had just been teasing him. He said with a hint of helplessness, "Miaomiao, you scared me to death just now."
"Hmph, who told you not to discuss it with me and decide my future randomly?"
"I was wrong. Will you forgive me?"
"Alright, I'll reluctantly forgive you," Fang Miaomiao said with a wave of her hand, acting magnanimous.
"Thank you, Miaomiao, for forgiving me."
After they playfully bickered for a while, Fang Miaomiao went to eat breakfast, with Wen Zhiyan diligently serving her by her side.
"Miaomiao, drink your porridge. I made this for you this morning. And the xiaolongbao were specially packed by Qian Ma from Xiang Zhuang."
"What are you planning to do next? Enter the entertainment industry with me?"
Wen Zhiyan shook his head, "No. I'm planning to collaborate with Fang Zhihuan. He wants to integrate his makeup brand with local elements and create our own local makeup brand."
Fang Miaomiao was stunned, "Didn't Brother Fang say he would never come back?"
"Silly girl, he was just saying that in anger. Once his heart is unburdened, he'll come back."
"Then, Grandpa Fang?"
Wen Zhiyan shook his head, "That's not something we can interfere with."
After breakfast, Fang Miaomiao played with the baby for a while longer, then drove to the film set.
As her car approached the film set, Cui Mantong called her and asked her to go to a nearby teahouse.
Arriving at the designated location.
Fang Miaomiao narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the person in the room.
Cui Mantong gave her a look and then beckoned her in, "Come, Miaomiao, let me introduce you. This is Wang Zhou, Director Wang."
Wang Zhou, in his fifties, had a potbelly, and his hazy eyes kept appraising Fang Miaomiao before looking away. He continuously rubbed his teacup with his fingers, "Miaomiao is even more beautiful than she appears on screen."
"You flatter me," Fang Miaomiao sat down beside Cui Mantong.
