Chapter 1288: Going Back
Chapter 1288: Chapter 1288: Going Back
During dinner, the family decided to meet at a restaurant for a meal.
"Mom, the restaurant’s business is really booming."
"Isn’t it? The food is good, and the environment is great. Naturally, it attracts a lot of people."
They had the most famous seafood there.
"It does taste pretty good."
"Right? I used to come here once a year to treat myself."
"Mom, why only once a year?"
"Because earning money isn’t easy. When I was young, I grew up in the village with grandma. That’s also why I managed to adapt to village life so quickly."
After dinner, the desserts that Qi Hao and Qi Xuan liked, the two little ones ate quite a bit.
Since they didn’t drive there, the family walked back.
"Can this place be called a city that never sleeps?" Qi Hong asked.
Yuanyuan nodded, "It should be. The nightlife here is also colorful."
The kids were still young, so they didn’t plan to let them experience it.
For the next few days, the kids ventured out on their own, the four of them were like an amusement park.
The children’s playgrounds here were numerous and of high quality. Qi Hao and Qi Xuan were so enchanted they didn’t want to leave. Every day, the first thing they did when they opened their eyes was to go out and play.
Yuanyuan saw that the three older ones also found this place novel, so they decided to stay a while longer.
They had originally planned to return home directly, but then remembered that the ashes were still elsewhere, so they thought it would be better to bring them back to their hometown to be buried beside grandma.
This meant they had to go to the north. But it wasn’t a big deal, and it would let the kids see different landscapes.
Today, Qi Yan and the others went to the film city, which allowed visitors.
Once they got in, Qi Wen began to complain.
"Don’t you think the modern buildings are quite different from what’s described in the novels? The older generation should know better. How did they end up building it like this? If there’s a fifty percent resemblance, that’s already good enough."
"It’s about the effect," said Qi Hong.
"What kind of result do they want with such effects? They’re not being true to the facts, and kids in the future will have these scenes imprinted in their minds, even though they’re so different from reality."
The two brothers didn’t know what to say, but their sister wasn’t wrong.
Qi Wen quite liked ancient architecture, "We don’t know much about it, so let’s just pretend it’s real. I’m just curious whether they had such advanced architectural skills in the past."
The two brothers didn’t answer her question. They just followed behind her.
"Little girl, little girl." A woman caught up with them, looking quite sharp and capable.
The three siblings turned around to look at the woman.
Hu Yan looked at these three kids and marveled in her heart, whose children are these? How are they so outstanding?
She quickly walked up to them.
Qi Wen admired her; being able to walk so fast in high heels must be a skill, right?
"Three little friends, here’s my business card. I think you three are amazing. I currently have a long costume drama, and young girl, you might try out for the female lead’s role during her youth."
Qi Wen laughed; on the first day, her mom was approached to act in a movie, and today it happened to her too?
"Sorry, miss, I’m not interested."
Hu Yan wasn’t discouraged; it was easy to see that these three weren’t from ordinary families.
There were many children from wealthy families in this circle now.
"Young girl, this is a good opportunity to become famous. The female lead is Liang Huan."
Qi Wen did know about Liang Huan; she had been binge-watching dramas these past few days. Liang Huan was quite a pretty actress, though Qi Wen didn’t like her much, finding her a bit pretentious.
"Thank you, miss. I’m not interested."
Hu Yan looked at the little girl’s smiling face and thought with regret that one day she would regret it. This drama was a big investment with a famous director. The male lead was a current popular star, and the other actors were also famous, with quite a strong lineup.
Since she didn’t know how to appreciate opportunities, Hu Yan thought, there were plenty of pretty girls out there.
She then looked at Qi Yan and Qi Hong.
"You’re twins, right? Are you interested in forming a group? Not knowing how to sing isn’t an issue; you can learn. I guarantee you’ll learn to sing and dance within six months."
Qi Yan didn’t even look at her, starting to get fed up with listening to her.
Qi Hong smiled and shook his head, "We siblings aren’t interested, but thank you."
The three siblings nodded and walked away. They knew their parents wouldn’t interfere, so it was up to them.
They really didn’t like it. Besides, they knew they were just observers here, and they would eventually leave.
Hu Yan watched them leave, feeling frustrated. Why were these three kids so hard to deal with? Although she thought to herself earlier that there were plenty of pretty girls, finding one as beautiful as that young girl was still rare.
She sighed, thinking that she’d missed a good opportunity. Who knows how excellent these three would become when they grow up?
She had no other options, not daring to have someone follow them, nor to seek out their parents. Given their attitude, it was clear they came from wealthy or noble backgrounds, and she couldn’t afford to offend them.
Qi Wen admired the beautiful costumes.
"Much prettier than those female cultivator outfits."
"It’s surely because they’ve incorporated modern elements; otherwise, how could they make such pretty clothes?"
Qi Wen agreed with Second Brother’s viewpoint. What they saw now, having a fifty percent resemblance was already pretty good.
"But the arrangements are indeed pretty good. Overall, the designer seems to be quite talented."
"You don’t think it’s just one designer, do you?"
Qi Wen indeed did think that. Seeing Second Brother’s expression, she realized she’d guessed wrong.
At noon, they saw many people squatting and eating box lunches. Qi Wen leaned in for a look and thought it was okay.
Watching others eat made her want to eat too, so the three siblings decided to leave and find something outside.
"Hmm, the restaurants here are okay."
"As long as you like them." The brothers weren’t fans of the local cuisine flavors, but the rest was acceptable.
After eating, Qi Wen returned to the film city.
"Wow, such a spectacle? Even more bodyguards than when Mom and Dad go out. Wonder which big star this is for."
Qi Hong could sense the sarcasm in his sister’s tone.
Out of curiosity, Qi Wen decided not to leave but to watch from a distance.
A male celebrity came out, seemingly quite famous. A group of girls screamed and rushed over to him.
"What makes them so obsessed? Is he that good? Dad’s much better. I really can’t understand them. Why do they like him so much? Is it worth getting this excited over?"
"They must have their reasons for liking him."
Qi Wen nodded; there must indeed be something that attracted them.
"Let’s go, before we get caught up in anything. They’re too crazy, who knows if something bad might happen," Qi Yan spoke up.
