Chapter 325: A busy family

In the Chi house, Chi Rui who was enjoying a cup of soy milk and Youtiao was rudely interrupted by another unwelcome phone call. This was the fourth call he was receiving in less than five minutes from a reporter.

The peep star had struck once again it seemed. This call was from his assistant and after speaking for about forty seconds, he hung up and frowned.

Pushing his chair back, he stood up and said, "Excuse me; I have to go to work."

"Suddenly, is something wrong at the company?" Mama Chi asked.

Chi Rui answered, "Wu Lian is threatening to stop all of his activities if we poach Bei Qing or allow Bei Qing to get a role in director Mile’s movie. Everyone is losing their minds over this movie, you would think it will be the end of the world if they all don’t get roles in it."

Wang Tong squealed and Wang Bolin kicked her leg under the table.

Chi Lian returned to the living room with Mei-Mei in her arms, handed her to mama Chi and said, "Mother, I am going to take some things for Muyang at the university. I will be home later."

Mama Chi settled Mei-Mei onto her laps and fed her a small almond cookie. Once she was distracted, mama Chi looked at Chi Lian and said, "I was going to follow your brother to the company, it seems like something big has happened. His phone keeps ringing and he has said that Wu Lian is acting out."

From a side angle, Chi Lian noticed grandma An and Wang Xue vying for Mei-Mei’s attention. Even grandpa Wang was waving his fingers around as if they were jelly fish.

"What happened?" she asked Chi Rui as she packed almond and ginger bread cookies into a medium sized white container. Her mother referring to whatever Wu Liang’s actions were as ’acting out’ made it sound as if he was a teenager.

"The peep star happened, again." Chi Rui answered in a frustrated voice.

Chi Zimo who always walked around with his laptop was already online, and a hologram of the peep star’s weibo was made viewable for everyone. The Wang family already knew about this technology because some of them were pretty high up in the military. And Chi Lian had used it in her camping event for the viewing of a movie. But the laptop was still quite impressive and sleek.

"Where can I get one of those?" Wang Zhao asked Zimo.

"This is custom made cousin, I am afraid you won’t be able to." Chi Zimo answered with a proud smile on his face. "Sister, the peep star is claiming that Bei Qing is coming to phoenix entertainment. The post has sixteen million likes already. Is it really true?" he looked at Chi Lian eager for first hand gossip.

Wang Tong too was looking at her the same way. The excitement in her eyes was so blatant that it could not be hidden.

"Ask Chi Rui, he runs the entertainment company." She answered with a shrug.

"Brother, is it true?" Chi Zimo turned his question and eager gaze to Chi Rui.

Chi Rui opened his mouth and closed it. Then he opened it again and said, "Do you think Bei Qing can come to a place where Wu Lian is? The two of them have been compared to each other right from the beginning of their careers and the competition and hatred between them is fierce. Would you want to hang around your enemy every day?"

"But it is rumored that they used to be childhood friends, are they really enemies?" Wang Tong blurted out.

She covered her mouth once she realized that she had asked her question out loud and quickly looked at her grandfather. He was paying no attention to her whatsoever; all of it was on his granddaughter who was giggling with him.

On the other hand, grandmother An shocked everyone by responding to Wang Tong. "Jie and I used to be close friends before she did this to me. Just because you are friends with someone toady does not mean that you will still be friends tomorrow."

"Well, I have to run; I will see you all later. Grandma, grandpa, everyone have a good day." Chi Rui stuffed an almond cookie into his mouth left the room.

"I will be leaving now too." Chi Lian kissed Mei-Mei on the head, bid everyone goodbye and left.

"Dad, we should also go to work, there is a lot to prepare for Mr. Ian Smith and we have only accomplished about fifty percent." Chi Wei pushed his chair back and stood up.

Papa Chi nodded in agreement and he stood up to leave.

"Then I should also go to work, I agreed to work the afternoon shift for Kiki today." Chi Zimo also stood up and announced.

Grandmother An and grandfather Wang could only look on as the grandchildren they wanted to interact with left one after the other.

"Does everyone in the family work?" grandmother An asked mama Chi.

"Yes, we have three companies, a bakery, a spa and a tea shop. Chi-Chi founded the companies but her brothers have been successfully running them right from the beginning. Except for the media company, spa and tea shop, she takes care of that on her own." Mama Chi explained to madam An proudly.

"My granddaughter is sure impressive." Grandma An said with a smile.

"You have no idea, that girl has been driving me crazy since her childhood because she always does things her way. She decided to become an exchange student in the last two years of her university on her own. I found out one week to her leaving. When she got there she earned money which she used to start up the companies. She is always up and down, if it wasn’t for the children I don’t know what she would be up to now." Mama Chi listed down more than one of Chi Lian’s accomplishments like the proud mother she was.

Grandmother An frowned after a little while though and she asked, "What happens to the children if you all go to work? Do you leave them with nannies? Nuo, you cannot trust people easily with the lives of the children. Jie is your aunt and yet she threw you to wolves, what about these strangers? Someone can pay them to do something to the child in your absence."

After everything that had happened, madam An was very untrusting now. She had failed to protect Nuo but she could protect Nuo’s grandchildren, her great-grandchildren.

"Shiqing, I think we should move in with Nuo temporarily and take care of the children when they have all gone to work. Nuo, is my suggestion ideal?"
