I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack-Chapter 52 - Smacking Face!

Madam Yun patted his head. “It won’t do even if you’re free. You’re still young. You’ll need a guardian to accompany you.”

“Then I’ll go look for daddy!”

After saying this, Chu Tianye ran straight upstairs to the study to look for Chu Cichen.

Chu Cichen then stared at the ownership transfer contract in his hand and his eyes flickered. It was only after a while that he looked at Chu Tianye, asking hesitantly, “Is your mommy… really very poor?”

Otherwise, why would Little Ye be so obsessed over money?

Chu Cichen didn’t care for Royal Ocean Entertainment. However, there was no such thing as a free lunch. Chu Tianye had really brought some trouble for the Shen Family.

Chu Tianye nodded vigorously. “En, en. Mommy is very poor. She doesn’t go to work every day and only has a little* savings in her bank account.”

The child sighed. “If I don’t work hard to earn money, how am I going to provide for mommy when she grows old?”

At the thought of how Shen Ruojing’s dressing seemed simple and she didn’t even have a car of her own, only riding her rundown motorbike every day, Chu Cichen took out a black card and handed it to Chu Tianye. “I’ll give you this card.”

Chu Tianye’s eyes lit up.

His previous attempts to get money from his daddy had all ended up in failure, so he had thought that his father was a covetous person just like him! He hadn’t expected his daddy to be so generous!

Chu Tianye took the card and stuffed it into his pocket gleefully. “I know Daddy is very busy, so I won’t be disturbing you any further! But when is Daddy going to return me the $5,100 you owed me previously?”

Chu Cichen: “?”

Chu Cichen squinted his eyes and his gaze was fixed on Chu Tianye. “Take it from the bank card.”

Chu Tianye instantly covered his pocket. “Daddy, how can you use my money to pay for what you owe me?”

Chu Cichen: “… It hasn’t even been a minute since this card entered your pocket, right? Yet it has now become your money?”

–

After lunch, Shen Ruojing took an afternoon nap.

When she woke up, she saw a few messages on her phone.

Chu Tianye: [Mommy, I’ve struck it rich!]

Chu Tianye: [Mommy, save me!]

Chu Tianye: [Mommy! Hurry up and come to the Chu Manor to look for me~ I’ll be waiting for you~]

Shen Ruojing did a stretch before she got out of bed. She then rode her motorbike and went to the Chu Manor with Chu Yu.

There was no helping it. Her children were there.

After she was done parking the motorbike, Chu Yu ran off to look for Matriarch Chu.

Shen Ruojing walked slowly toward the house. She was about to enter when she ran into Chu Cichen, who was just about to head out. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

The two of them happened to come into each other.

Shen Ruojing lowered her gaze calmly.

The other time, Chu Cichen had told her not to look for him unless there was a reason to do so. Therefore, she just pretended that she hadn’t seen him. She dragged her feet along and walked past him when she suddenly heard the man call out to her, “Miss Shen.”

Shen Ruojing stopped in her footsteps and turned to look at him.

Chu Cichen’s side profile looked very good, with a tall nose and defined chin. He said nonchalantly, “I heard from Little Ye that you just have a little bit of savings?”

Shen Ruojing’s peach blossom eyes raised slightly, and she said with a shadow of a smile, “It’s alright. It’s enough.”

It was just a savings of a few hundred million, in addition to the monthly dividends from Z Corporation.

Chu Cichen took a look at her, and then his gaze landed on her rundown motorbike again. He nodded slightly and was planning to walk away when he heard her ask, “Mr. Chu, are… you good at Mathematics?”

The gaze of Chu Cichen, who had gotten a gold award in the International Mathematical Olympiad, flickered slightly and he replied with his words, “It’s alright. It’s enough.”

Shen Ruojing: (… That probably means that he isn’t that good in Mathematics.)

She finally figured out the reason why Chu Yu was so stupid. Turned out that it was due to the fact that the genes inherited from his father’s side weren’t that good!

Chu Cichen wasn’t that smart, so it was no wonder he couldn’t remember her.

Shen Ruojing nodded coldly and then walked past him.

Chu Cichen: ‘?’

Why did he feel as if he saw ‘pity’ in her gaze?

Shen Ruojing had just stepped into the living room and hadn’t gone upstairs when a small figure came dashing over like a firecracker, pouncing into her arms. “Mommy!”

Chuyu came running after Chu Tianye, wagging its tail. It also ran around Shen Ruojing, fawning over her in the same way Chu Tianye was doing!

Shen Ruojing asked, “What is it?”

Chu Tianye’s eyes gleamed. “Mommy, can you go with me to my company to have a look? It’s Royal Ocean Entertainment!”

“…”

Shen Ruojing looked at the child, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

In the end, Madam Yun still gave the company to the Shen Family?

Seeing how excited Chu Tianye was, Shen Ruojing didn’t reproach him. She lowered her eyes and thought to herself, (Forget it. That small company isn’t really much trouble either. Since it’s taken, so be it. We’ll just treat it as accumulating experience for Little Ye.)

At the thought of how Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen had gone to the company, Shen Ruojing’s lips curled up. “Alright, let’s go.”

Shen Ruojing took Chu Tianye’s hand and walked up to the motorbike. Chu Tianye immediately saw the small black helmet and was planning to go take it when Chu Yu came running out of the house. “Mommy, take this key! Grandmother says that you’ll look more impressive if you drive this car there!”

He pointed to a luxurious Bentley at the side.

Chu Tianye instantly nodded. “Yes, yes!”

Therefore, Shen Ruojing drove the car and took Chu Tianye out.

It was only after they had left that Chu Yu carefully picked up his black helmet and wiped the spot where Chu Tianye had touched it. He then placed the helmet back next to the bigger helmet and giggled.

At Royal Ocean Entertainment.

When Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen entered, the manager, Brother Li, was reprimanding the artists under him. His choice of words was horrible as if he was scolding a lowly person.

“Do you think someone like you can really become a big star? Don’t you know how hard it is to survive in the entertainment circle? You know our company’s Jing Zhen, right? Even with his looks, he still didn’t become popular despite acting for over 20 years! He is negative teaching material for you guys! All of you should be more well-behaved!”

Some people didn’t agree with what Brother Li said and rebutted, “But Brother Li, Teacher Jing Zhen’s popularity seems to have risen these two days. His Weibo account has gotten several ten thousand more followers…”

Brother Li sneered. “Heh, what’s a few ten thousand followers gonna do? He’s not fated to become popular!”

Brother Li couldn’t be blamed for saying this.

Jing Zhen was too good-looking. As long as he was in the same frame as the main lead, the main lead would pale in comparison. This led to the situation where all the main leads didn’t like to be in the same act as him, and thus the roles he was given became more and more borderline. From the sixth supporting actor to really being an extra background actor now.

Each time he had gained a bit of popularity in the past, there’d be other news to suppress that.

Brother Li understood the entertainment circle too well. He knew that to become successful in this trade, one must rely on execution and producing works, but there was also the thing about fate.

Jing Zhen was really very unlucky…

After Brother Li was done saying these, he saw Jing Zhen entering the company.

Brother Li waved his hand to let the other artists leave before he walked up to Jing Zhen. “So? Have you finally thought things through? You’ve come to apologize?”

Jing Zhen was about to speak when Brother Li sneered. He then pointed to Jing Zhen and said, “Weren’t you being so haughty earlier? You’re really something now, daring to create trouble in someone else’s territory. Jing Zhen, let me tell you. You’re really unlucky. The new boss will be coming here, and we’re going to make an example out of you to show others! Just wait for the combo of paying a high penalty for breaking the contractual terms and being banned from this industry. You will never act anymore!”
