Chapter 322: Brother Yang’s Wife
The New Year’s Eve party at Chuntian Kindergarten was held on the eve of New Year’s Day, just like the Spring Festival Gala was held on New Year’s Eve. There was nothing wrong with it.
Yang Yi accompanied Xixi for the entire day in the hotel auditorium where tonight’s New Year’s Eve party was being held, preparing for the evening performance with the teacher and other children.
As a qualified house-dad, Yang Yi also demonstrated his skills in braiding. Therefore, he also took on the job of a hairstylist for the middle class children. Not only did Xixi have her hair braided by her father, but all the little girls in the class lined up, eager for Uncle Yang to braid them a beautiful hairstyle.
Originally, Yang Yi was quite popular in this class, but now these children were almost fighting for Uncle Yang! If dads could be exchanged, perhaps every little girl would probably exchange their own dad for Uncle Yang Yi who can tell stories, make delicious food, and even dress up his baby, right?
In fact, Yang Yi had other invitations today.
Du Yuanlei had thoroughly studied the script and made detailed shooting plans and preparations in advance. She planned to start shooting on the last day of this year because shooting across the year has a good omen of carrying on the old and welcoming the new. it turned out that many directors were superstitious.
Unfortunately, Yang Yi needed to attend his daughter’s New Year’s performance and could not attend. He had declined the invitation when he received it a few days ago. And he really didn’t like these formalities and ceremonies. Even if Du Yuanlei arranged to start shooting at another time, he wouldn’t want to participate. Yang Yi at most likes to watch them filming and satisfy his desire to understand the filming process.
So, Du Yuanlei didn’t need to postpone the shooting plan for Yang Yi, the investor and screenwriter. According to the original plan, after today’s opening ceremony, Du Yuanlei immediately arranged for the first day of shooting for the micro-movie “Fairy Tale”.
When Mo Fei arrived at the hotel after finishing her press conference, the sky had already turned as dark as ink.
The good news was that the cover of darkness served as the best disguise. And on this chilly winter night, wrapped in a large overcoat with the collar pulled up to cover half of the face and wearing a mask, as long as there were no paparazzi tailing her, Mo Fei wasn’t easily recognizable by anyone.
“Where is Xixi? Have you had dinner yet?” Although Mo Fei was very tired, she still cared about her daughter and Yang Yi first.
“The teacher took them to the waiting room to put on makeup, and there is only one makeup artist, who is very slow. Xixi and the other children are together, and they’ve already arranged dinner for them. I waited for you to eat together. You must be starving, right?” Yang Yi took Mo Fei’s bag and said with concern.
Yang Yi knew that Mo Fei was busy rushing and had no time to eat, so he led Mo Fei into a private room in the hotel restaurant. He had timed his order earlier so that the waiter would bring dinner just before Mo Fei arrived, and now all the dishes were still steaming hot.
As Mo Fei removed her disguise and took off her coat, Yang Yi scooped up a bowl of hot soup for her.
“Don’t just mention me, you must be starving too. Let’s eat quickly! Later, I want to see Xixi too.” Mo Fei gave Yang Yi a big chicken leg and said with concern.
The two of them were intimate with each other, but the door was suddenly pushed open. A hearty and cheerful laugh came from the doorway: “Hahaha, Brother Yang, you’re not kind! Eating alone here without calling me!”
Mo Fei was somewhat startled, but Yang Yi knew who it was when he heard the voice. He patted Mo Fei’s hand and comforted her, saying, “It’s Brother Lan.”
Sure enough, the all-resourceful Lan Zhoukai walked around the screen and appeared in front of Yang Yi and Mo Fei with Lan Xin’s mother.
Mo Fei had heard Yang Yi mention Lan Zhoukai’s name and background before, and when Lan Xin came to play at home before, she had also seen this little girl and knew that Lan Zhoukai was her father. Feeling a little more settled, she stood up with Yang Yi to greet them.
When he saw Mo Fei, Lan Zhoukai was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at Yang Yi with a strange expression in his eyes. “Oh, is this sister-in-law? Xixi’s mother?”
He wasn’t quite sure, after all, there were many rich people who had that kind of thing!
Yang Yi introduced them with a smile, “Yes, this is Mo Fei. Mo Fei, these two are the parents of Lan Xin, Xixi’s best friend, Big Brother Lan Zhoukai, whom I mentioned to you before, and Wu Jingjing. You can call her Sister Jing, just like I do!”
“So it really is sister-in-law!” Lan Zhoukai’s heart settled down, and joked happily, “I was wondering why I hadn’t seen Xixi’s mother before. It turns out she’s so beautiful that Brother Yang was hiding her away!”
As Mo Fei was busy greeting them, Lan Xin’s mother, who had been staring at Mo Fei’s plain face in a daze, finally reacted.
“Mo Fei? Is it really Mo Fei?” Wu Jingjing was a little excited, and she double-checked to confirm.
Sure enough, she was recognized. Mo Fei nodded shyly to her.
“Who? Do you know her?” Lan Zhoukai asked, puzzled.
“Husband, Mo Fei!” Wu Jingjing patted his shoulder and chided him excitedly. “Have you forgotten? The song I played for you before, ‘For You I Used Half a Year’s Savings, Traveled Across the Ocean to See You,’ wasn’t it sung by Mo Fei?”
Lan Zhoukai really didn’t remember. He didn’t chase stars and he didn’t have any artistic cells1either. The songs he listened to were basically forgotten as soon as he turned his head. But he still had an impression of this song because Wu Jingjing often looped it at home…
After the two families finally got to know each other, everyone sat down together for dinner. As for the fact that Yang Yi’s wife was Mo Fei, Lan Zhoukai didn’t react much. Instead, Wu Jingjing turned into a fan girl. She sat with Mo Fei and the two women chatted eagerly about music and entertainment topics. After getting closer, she even asked Mo Fei for several signed collector’s editions of “Empathy” that were currently unavailable on the market.
Lan Zhoukai chatted with Yang Yi. He smiled and nudged Yang Yi’s arm with his elbow, raised his eyebrows, and said, “Brother Yang, you are usually quiet, but once you speak, you are amazing!”
“Don’t be in a hurry to defend yourself. Let me count for you.” Lan Zhoukai began to count on his fingers. “You see, before I thought you were just a simple writer of a novel, right? But who knew that you also have such a good understanding of business! This is one!”
“At that time, I thought you were only rich in theoretical knowledge. I didn’t expect that by coincidence, you were also on the list of recommended people given by my consulting company. And you also invested in opening a company with others, and your net worth is not small! This is two!”
“Well, now you have quietly brought out a big star wife, which surprised me once again! This is three. I’m wondering if there’s anything else magical about you that I don’t know!” Lan Zhoukai stroked his chin and looked at Yang Yi and said with a click.2
“Where is it so magical? No matter how much success one achieves outside, whether one has a lot of money or not, don’t we all have to go through the cycle of birth, old age, sickness and death? The difficult thing is how to live a good ordinary life and how to enjoy a limited life! So no matter what kind of person you see me as, in the end, I am just an ordinary person. Isn’t Boss Lan the same?” Yang Yi smiled slightly and said calmly.
“Yeah, you’re absolutely right! I just like to live a good life like ordinary people!” Lan Zhoukai was moved by Yang Yi’s words and couldn’t help but raise his teacup in a toast to Yang Yi in agreement.
As the evening party approached its start time, Yang Yi and Mo Fei finally saw their daughter. After putting on makeup, Xixi’s face was white and her lips were red. She looked…a little strange… If it weren’t for seeing other children like this too, Mo Fei would have almost thought her daughter had offended the makeup artist! ．
“Mama, we’re the second performance!” The little girl held up two fingers and couldn’t wait to convey the news to her mother. “Soon, Mama will be able to see Xixi’s performance!”
The little girl didn’t care too much about the makeup. She just felt a little uncomfortable with the lipstick on her lips. Her lips were dry and she didn’t dare lick them.
Mo Fei took out her own makeup box from her bag and put some lip gloss on her daughter so that Xixi wouldn’t look so fierce. While applying it, she comforted the little girl, saying, “No matter when Xixi’s performance is, Mama will definitely watch Xixi’s performance until the end. So, Xixi, don’t be nervous and do your best, okay?”
“I’m not nervous! I really want to perform!” Xixi said naturally.
“Then do your best! Mama believes that Xixi will definitely perform well!” Mo Fei affectionately kissed the little girl’s hand.
