The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 521 Another one was born.

Someone is mocking you.

You used Rapid Impact, you used Suppression, and you took away two points of the opponent's health.

The opponent summoned a mount and activated Devour.

You take out the stun gun and knock out two more drops of health from your opponent.

If a third party mocks you, you must first attack the person with the mocking icon.

You used Suppression, you used Savage Charge, you went to the wrong place but it was more effective, you took away three points of the opponent's health.

The third party initiated the Shaking Shadow, and then initiated a back kick.

You used the stun device again, and you took away two points of health from your opponent.

Second-party and third-party organizations began to join forces to launch a data-stealing operation.

You unleashed the Blazing Blade Technique, and every strike landed a critical hit.

……

After reprimanding and sending the Li Xue sisters off, and instructing them to polish the script further, it was May, and Xu Jiuyang's scenes were almost finished filming.

The remaining scenes require following the main group, involving both training and anti-drug operations. It's impossible for everyone to finish filming here and immediately move on to other scenes, as other actors' scenes also need to be filmed here.

However, Kang Honglei repeatedly assured him that it would not delay his return to be with his wife, so he didn't say anything more.

Of course, the environment on set didn't change much. Among the male actors, only Baoqiang would gossip with him, even though he was still eating and sleeping outdoors while filming these scenes.

Actually, other male actors had tried to get close to Xu Jiuyang before, such as Cheng Cai, or rather Chen Sicheng, who had tried to get close to him.

However, when he asked Xu Jiuyang how he became so popular with women, Xu Jiuyang bluntly replied, "I don't know, they're all throwing themselves at me."

And then... that was it. Chen Sicheng never came looking for him again.

These days, nobody believes the truth. The world is going to the dogs. Feeling hurt, Xu Jiuyang called Xuanxuan and Yaya over to support him for two days before he calmed down.

Leaving all that aside, by the 15th, Xu Jiuyang had finally finished filming. Without waiting for the crew to hold any farewell party, he simply left.

Of course, he also repeatedly reminded Wang Baoqiang to call him after filming wrapped and not to tell anyone that he was going to star in a Zhang Yimou film.

Next, naturally, I stayed by my wife's side at all times, waiting for her to give birth, and so I waited until the last day of this month.

“I don’t know what to say. You can say the hospital’s prediction was inaccurate, since I did feel the baby move on the last day of May; but if you say the prediction was accurate, it didn’t give birth until June 1st,” Xu Jiuyang muttered to himself as he peeled an apple while sitting on the edge of the hospital bed. “But it’s alright, being born on Children’s Day means I’ll definitely be happy in the future.”

"Can you please stop arguing? You've been peeling this apple for ages, why don't you just stop?" Fan Bingbing said impatiently, leaning against the headboard. Her expression was gloomy, somewhat confused, and at a loss.

This situation was clearly not right, so Xu Jiuyang wasn't annoyed. He quickly cut off most of the piece, then diced it into small pieces, put them in a bowl, stuck toothpicks in them, and handed them to her.

"It tastes awful." After picking at two pieces, she disgustedly threw the toothpick into the bowl.

However, because Xu Jiuyang had specifically chosen very sweet apples, Fan Bingbing's emotions calmed down considerably after consuming the sugar.

"This isn't childbirth, it's torture..." she said angrily. "After several hours of this, I finally heard a cry, only to find out the doctor said there was still one baby waiting... I almost fainted on the delivery bed..."

"You've worked so hard, my dear wife," Xu Jiuyang continued to coax her. "Don't worry, you've already given birth. When the nurse brings the baby over, you'll know how amazing you are." "I don't want to see them!" Fan Bingbing said resolutely.

Then the nurse pushed the door open and came in: "Ms. Fan, it's time to feed her."

They not only carefully pushed the stroller in, but also thoughtfully explained: "The baby's first milk must be given by the mother, so that the mother can pass on her own immune antibodies to the baby, giving him initial protection."

"Okay...okay..." Although Fan Bingbing was somewhat resistant, she managed to control her emotions and, under the nurse's guidance, hurriedly picked up the child and pulled open her clothes.

Xu Jiuyang wanted to go over and help several times, and also to check on the two babies, but he held back each time.

Thankfully, after the little one started eating, she inexplicably shivered and suddenly relaxed.

Moreover, when she took the second baby into her arms to eat, her movements were noticeably gentler and more careful.

After Fan Bingbing finished feeding them, Xu Jiuyang took the opportunity to hug them before letting the nurse take them away again.

"Honey, are you alright now?" He sat back in his chair and asked, looking at Fan Bingbing who was in a daze.

"It's...it's alright," Fan Bingbing replied absentmindedly.

"Really?" Xu Jiuyang looked at her. "You seemed a little anxious before?"

Fan Bingbing was silent for a moment, then finally let out a long breath: "Probably... because I'm not ready to be a mother yet."

Xu Jiuyang blinked, unsure of what to say for a moment. Was her loving expression during her pregnancy all an act?
“Actually…” Fan Bingbing took another deep breath, “I thought I was ready, but I only realized when I gave birth that I wasn’t…”

“Then…” Xu Jiuyang asked, following her lead.

“But just now,” her tone suddenly became somewhat agitated, “when I was holding them and feeding them, that feeling… I don’t know how to describe it, but it immediately made me understand… understand what I should do.”

“It’s normal, honey, it’s normal,” Xu Jiuyang reassured her. “It’s understandable for a first-time mother to experience any emotional fluctuations. You just need to adjust.”

Then he sighed inwardly. Judging from her excited expression after her initial excitement, he knew that his status in the family was about to decline.

“Yeah, yeah, it’s not like this is your first time being a father.” Fan Bingbing glared at him.

Although his lips twitched slightly, Xu Jiuyang still managed a smile: "Oh my, you've recovered so quickly."

“Right, what’s the problem?” Fan Bingbing asked back.

"No, very good, not bad." Xu Jiuyang gave a thumbs up. "Since that's the case..."

Before she could finish speaking, her hand was grabbed, and the new mother in front of her looked at her with gentle yet somewhat shy eyes.

"Thank you, honey." She lowered her voice.

"Why thank me? Isn't this what I should do?" Xu Jiuyang asked, puzzled.

“No…” Fan Bingbing sighed. “How should I put it? Ever since I became famous, I’ve been worried about some things. You know what the entertainment industry is like, it’s a big melting pot. But back then, I was only focused on becoming a star and making a lot of money, so I didn’t think too much about it. After I really became famous overnight with Little Swallow, I started to worry about certain things, and then I started to dream about them all the time.”

"What did you dream about?" Xu Jiuyang couldn't help but ask.

“Take this pregnancy for example. Sometimes I dream that I will never have children in my life; sometimes I dream that I have to compromise and have children for some people because of bad things; sometimes I dream that I have to have children for people I hate for some benefit…” Fan Bingbing’s tone became somewhat wistful, completely unaware that someone’s expression was becoming more and more strange.
