Shi Mianmian was completely oblivious to the awkward atmosphere, with sauce on her lips, and said, "Mommy, this meat and shrimp paste is so delicious!" Shi Su gave her some more, smiling, "Of course, how could the hotpot made by this fairy not be good?" Mianmian almost burst into laughter, her mouth full of food, puffing her cheeks and chewing, trying hard not to spew out the meat. "Well, eat more. In a few days, the film crew will start. I won’t have as much time to cook personally at home for you every day. I’ll probably be busy working from dawn till dusk, with no time to take care of you," Shi Su said, scooping some more for the man across the table. Jing Jihan signaled his gratitude with a glance, saying leisurely, "There was some misunderstanding earlier, a child’s words can’t be taken seriously." Shi Su looked at him first, then laughed, "I know. If you dared have any designs on me, I’d have kicked you out long ago." Jing Jihan raised his brows, looking at her for a moment, "What if I really plan to have designs on you?" Shi Su had just picked up a piece of meat, about to put it in her mouth, but stopped with her chopsticks in mid-air. She glared at him through the steam rising from the hotpot on the table, "The day I rescued you back, whatever state you’re in, is how I’ll beat you back to, and send you under the cliff, to fend for yourself!" "Mommy, please don’t!" Mianmian took it seriously, quickly swallowing what was in her mouth to speak. Find the newest release on noⅴelfire.net "Eat your hotpot. When someone wants to have designs on me, you still want to keep him at home?" Shi Su stuffed the meat into Mianmian’s mouth. Mianmian chewed vigorously, then puzzled, turned her gaze to Jing Jihan, "Uncle, what does it mean to have designs on someone? Why do you want to have designs on my mommy?" Seeing that neither of them explained the term to her, Shi Mianmian suddenly reached for the phone her mommy had placed on the table, shouting, "Siri, what does it mean to have designs on someone?" A mechanical female voice instantly sounded, "To have designs on someone means to plot something beyond the normal rule of law, for example, when a man has designs on a woman, it means the man intends to commit unlawful acts towards the woman, or describes a bad guy..." Shi Mianmian’s mouth gaped wider and wider in surprise. Shi Su quickly took back the phone, cutting off the voice, "Shi Mianmian!" Mianmian stared at Jing Jihan in surprise, "Wow, Uncle, so you like my mommy to such an extent..." "Shi Mianmian, shut up!" Shi Su knew it was just a misunderstanding. She could tell from his calm demeanor. Mianmian surely misunderstood and miscommunicated things. She was just bantering a bit with Jing Ji to ease a little tension! This brat just managed to turn things into this situation! Why did she use that term earlier! Shi Su looked at Jing Jihan angrily. Jing Jihan showed no sign of embarrassment. His elegant features remained calm and unemotional, occasionally raising his eyebrows to show admiration and surprise towards Mianmian, seemingly unaffected. Seeing Mianmian entirely clueless, Jing Jihan acted calm, as if outside the topic. Shi Su had to change the subject, "Fine, I’m in a good mood today, not going to fuss with a little kid." From the moment she came back, "good mood" was written all over her face. Jing Jihan’s dark eyes looked at her, calmly asking, "Is there something good? Why are you so happy?" Shi Su happily poured juice for herself and the two of them, raised her glass, and said, "Come, let’s celebrate that the director didn’t replace my role. Let me also wish myself a smooth entry into the crew the day after tomorrow! Cheers!"
