Jian Junruo asked in surprise, "Xiu Huan, why do you want to bring Sheng Sheng on the show with you?"
Jian Junyu also didn't quite agree, "The family was very against you entering the entertainment industry by yourself before, why do you have to drag Sheng Sheng into it?"
Jian Xiu Huan sighed and took out his phone.
"I don't want to either, but the fans are all worried about Sheng Sheng's mental health and want me to share more interactions with her."
He found his Weibo page and handed it to Jian Junyu and Jian Junruo to see.
Speaking of this, Jian Xiu Huan vented his frustrations.
"You have no idea, my fans have turned into Sheng Sheng's fans."
"They treat me like a parenting blogger, asking me all day long why I haven't posted photos with Sheng Sheng yet."
"They ask if Sheng Sheng has been left with psychological trauma because of what happened last time."
"Now my Weibo homepage is full of apologies and requests to see Sheng Sheng, not to mention that even the company's mailbox has received many letters from fans."
Jian Junruo took the phone and looked at it. The comment with the highest number of likes at the top was:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry to Sheng Bao. Brother, can you let me see Sheng Bao? [Crying] Baby, please don't be unhappy! [Hearts] [Hearts] [Hearts]"
Due to being bombarded by phone calls and text messages, Jian Junruo hadn't turned on her phone for the past two days.
Whether it was the change in public opinion online or the Jian family wanting her to return, Jian Junyu had personally informed her.
Jian Junruo clicked on Jian Xiu Huan's previous Weibo post and saw that extremely emotional, long post.
After reading it, she felt a mix of emotions.
She silently handed the phone back.
After a long while, Jian Junruo said, "To be honest, I don't really want Sheng Sheng to enter that industry."
Jian Xiu Huan was a little disappointed but understood.
Some people outside thought the entertainment industry was glamorous, while others believed it was corrupt.
He, being in the industry, knew that many seemingly conspiratorial theories outside were not unfounded.
They could never be dismissed with a simple statement that others were jealous or slandering.
The industry was indeed chaotic, that was an undeniable fact.
With his current status in the industry, he could only be considered to have barely established a foothold.
He completely understood his little aunt's concerns.
The suggestion for Sheng Sheng to join the show with him came from his agent after seeing the online reactions.
He was a little tempted but didn't agree immediately. Instead, he came to ask for Sheng Sheng's and his little aunt's opinions first.
If it were possible, he could happily dote on Sheng Sheng in the upcoming show.
If not, he would be slightly disappointed.
However, just when he thought Jian Junruo's words were a refusal, Jian Junruo continued:
"I don't want Sheng Sheng to enter this industry because I don't want her to get hurt."
"But I also believe that with you, Xiu Huan, by her side, Sheng Sheng will never be bullied."
On Jian Xiu Huan's Weibo, she only saw protection for Sheng Sheng.
The key point was that she saw Sheng Sheng's little face clearly showing interest.
Jian Xiu Huan's eyes lit up, and he quickly assured, "Sheng Sheng is my sister. Anyone who wants to bully her will have to get past me first!"
"And little aunt, don't worry, it's just a two-week variety show. It's just to let the fans see Sheng Sheng's current situation."
"Knowing that Sheng Sheng is fine, they can rest assured."
Jian Junruo nodded, then suddenly slapped her forehead as if remembering something.
"Look at my brain, there's been so much going on these past two days, I almost forgot."
"Sheng Sheng is about to start school, and she'll be going to the art studio soon."
"When does your show start, Xiu Huan? I don't know if Sheng Sheng will have time then."
Jian Sheng quickly raised her little hand, "Mommy, I can self-study the content I'll need to learn in advance! That way, it won't delay my studies!"
Originally, she was just curious, but now that she heard she could avoid school, she immediately perked up.
If she had to attend classes with a bunch of five or six-year-old brats, she would die of boredom!
Jian Junruo flicked her on the head.
"You'll do anything as long as it's not going to school, right?"
Jian Sheng covered her head with her little hands and giggled.
Jian Xiu Huan said, "The next recording is in eight days, and it will be broadcast around the National Day after editing."
Today is August 17th, so eight days from now will be August 23rd.
Jian Junruo hesitated when she heard the time.
The recording time clashed with Sheng Sheng's enrollment date. She still wanted Sheng Sheng to be happy and enjoy her normal school life.
Seeing her concern, Jian Xiu Huan said,
"I am the guest for this episode. Sheng Sheng is just accompanying me, she doesn't have to be there all the time."
"During the normal recordings, on the day of her school enrollment, I can bring Sheng Sheng to register, how about that?"
"If Sheng Sheng can't continue recording after school starts, she can give up the recording and go back to school."
With such lenient conditions, Jian Junruo no longer hesitated and agreed.
Jian Sheng immediately jumped up from the sofa and cheered.
She didn't have to go to school anymore!
Hooray!
After her excitement, Jian Sheng remembered the main reason she had come.
She asked with some concern, "Cousin, your identity is exposed. Won't Grandma and Uncle and Aunt tie you back?"
Jian Xiu Huan was taken aback, "Sheng Sheng, why would you think that?"
Jian Junyu and Jian Junruo also looked at Sheng Sheng at the same time, their eyes filled with surprise.
Jian Sheng scratched her head and said weakly,
"Well, Mommy was almost tied back before, and I heard Grandma doesn't seem to like your current career."
The others felt like crying and laughing.
What kind of monsters had the Jian family become in the little one's heart?
Jian Junyu remembered what he had said when he was in Jiangcheng and suddenly felt a little apprehensive.
The little one was so afraid of the Jian family; perhaps he had a share of the "credit" for it?
"Grandma really doesn't want me to continue in the entertainment industry. I'd forgotten about that until you mentioned it."
Jian Xiu Huan pretended to be troubled and said, "Grandma called me back today, probably because she doesn't want me to stay in the entertainment industry anymore."
Jian Sheng immediately became anxious, "How can that be!"
Whether it was for her cousin or to have a better reason to ask for leave, she absolutely could not let her cousin be forced to go home!
Jian Xiu Huan feigned sadness and said,
"What else can I do if I can't?"
Jian Sheng waved her little fists.
"If I can't, I'll... I'll act spoiled! I'll cry for Grandma!"
"Grandma has a pretty good impression of me, she'll definitely feel bad for me if I'm sad!"
Although Jian Sheng had only met the elder Mrs. Jian once, she had an inexplicable confidence.
Grandma would definitely not bear to see her sad!
The others chuckled.
Jian Xiu Huan was almost laughing hysterically inside, but on the surface, he pretended to sigh.
"Let's see how Grandma reacts later. If it's really no good, I'll have to retire from the industry and go home to inherit a fortune."
"Huh?"
Jian Sheng was stunned.
Looking at it this way, wasn't it not a bad thing for her cousin to retire and go home?
