My Youth Began With Him

“Pretty good. My mom got sick a few days ago, and Jie’s been coming to my house every day after work, making Shuai Shuai and my mom dinner. Shuai Shuai really likes her.”

“I’m glad.” Huo Mian smiled. Then, she looked down and went back to arranging flowers.

“Sis… you asked President Su to bring me here, right? What did you want to talk to me about?”

Ni Yang knew the dire situation Huo Mian was in; she couldn’t see anyone because it might risk her and the people protecting her.

“Yeah, GK’s being managed by the headquarters in the States, and GK Film and Television barely exists anymore… It’s severely affected you.”

“I’m not scared, it’s a good chance for me to retire.”

“You can’t do that, you’re still young, and you have so many fans who love you. Plus, you like singing, why would you retire? By the way, I heard that Yingzi took a bunch of people from GK and signed with Huo Siqian.”

Upon hearing this, Ni Yang’s expression fell. “I’m never going to talk to her again. I had no idea that she would throw away friendship for money.”

“There are a lot of people on this earth who only care about profits. We all have different priorities. What she did was her choice, and I won’t blame her. But I can’t do you wrong… you signed with GK because of me, so it’s my job to find you a better place to go to.”

“Sis, I don’t want to…”

“Listen to me, Ni Yang. You can’t be stubborn. You’re the beam holding up your family. You’re a man. When you grow up you have to take care of your parents, wife, and children, which means you have to have a career of your own. It’s not a good time for you to back down. I don’t have to tell President Su for him to give you a higher offer than GK. He’ll treat you right… plus, President Su has a lot of connections, so Yingzi won’t be able to do anything to you.”

“Sis…”

“If you really treat me like your sister, listen to my arrangements, okay?”

Upon hearing this, Ni Yang immediately shut his mouth; he knew Huo Mian did this for him.

“Okay then, I’ll listen to you, Sis.”

In the end, Ni Yang chose to listen to Huo Mian.

He was touched – when he decided to treat her like his sister, he had no idea that she would treat him the same way he treated her.

“Sis… when is your due date?” Ni Yang asked as he stared at Huo Mian’s belly.

“I still have a long way down the road… They’re only two months old right now.”

“So it’s going to be seven more months?”

“No, six months or so, actually.”

“Isn’t pregnancy supposed to last ten months?” Ni Yang asked, obviously surprised.

“That’s just what people say. Pregnancy usually lasts nine months…”

“Oh, I see… Do you know the babies’ gender right now?”

Ni Yang was truly curious and even made a bet with Chen Jie. Therefore, he really wanted to know if Huo Mian was having boys, girls, or one of each.

“I won’t know until they’re six months…” Huo Mian smiled.

“Awesome! I’m going to be an uncle…” Ni Yang exclaimed happily.

“Yes you are, so you’re going to have to prepare a present for the babies. I’m rich, so I don’t need money or baby stuff, maybe you can write my babies a song? After all, you’re the talented one in our group.”

“Mhm, that’s doable…”

Ni Yang and Huo Mian went on to chat for an hour or so. When it was time, Su Yu came downstairs and saw Ni Yang out…

Before he left, Huo Mian suddenly thought of something and grabbed the end of his sleeve. “Lingling’s getting married on the 16th of next month… can you sneak me into the wedding? I really want to go…”
