Originally, Tianyi—the little "grown-up" who had been immersed in emotion—was momentarily stunned by Fu Shan's sudden action.
Even someone as calm and serious as him rarely lost composure, yet now he burst into laughter from Fu Shan's antics, laughing so hard he collapsed into Fu Shan's broad and warm embrace.
The joyful and crisp laughter of Tianyi seemed to echo across the vast skies above Aifei Manor.
Seeing this scene, the two younger children, Yunduo and Tianyu, were also delighted.
Standing on either side of Fu Shan, they clapped their little hands and bounced around happily while letting out silver-bell-like giggles:
"Ooh ooh, Daddy's lifting big brother up high! Hehehe—"
"Ooh ooh~ Big brother smiled! Big brother's smiling so happily! Big brother, you look soooo handsome when you smile. You should smile more often~ Hehe~"
…
Xu Yifei and Li Lili, mother and daughter, followed the children's laughter all the way over.
From afar, they saw the heartwarming and cheerful scene before them.
Watching the harmonious and happy interaction between father and children, both Xu Yifei and Li Lili revealed knowing smiles.
After exchanging glances, the mother and daughter walked together toward Fu Shan and the three little ones.
"Mommy—"
Yunduo was the first to notice her mother and grandmother arriving.
Immediately, she called out in her sweet childish voice, spread her tiny arms, and toddled toward Xu Yifei with her little legs.
She threw herself straight into Xu Yifei's embrace.
Seeing this, Tianyu also hurried over with his short little steps.
Meanwhile, Fu Shan and Tianyi, who had been happily playing together, also stopped fooling around.
The moment Fu Shan set Tianyi back on the ground, the little boy immediately ran toward his mother with his tiny legs.
Not a trace of hesitation.
Cough… Actually, this little heartless child didn't even wave goodbye.
He didn't look back once, nor did he spare Fu Shan a single extra glance.
Fu Shan: "…"
What a ruthless little guy!
Looks like the three kids in this family were still closest to Yifei after all.
As their black-haired old father, he simply couldn't compare.
Still, Fu Shan didn't feel jealous or competitive over it.
Nor was he envious that the children seemed to prefer Xu Yifei more.
In fact, Fu Shan thought this was only natural.
And honestly, he was happy to see it.
After all, Yifei had carried the children for ten months and gone through hardship to give birth to them.
Not only that, she had also raised them alone for two whole years.
If the children suddenly tossed her aside just because they now had their biological father, then Fu Shan really would need to properly educate the little ones.
Fortunately—
Their three children all had consciences.
Fu Shan was very satisfied.
(〃'▽'〃)
Thinking this, a faint smile curled on his lips.
The next moment, he also walked toward Xu Yifei.
"Fu Shan, you're back! Are you tired? Do you want to go rest for a while?"
Seeing him approach, Xu Yifei smiled warmly at him.
Of course she knew he had just gone to the company to handle work matters.
That was why she asked.
Hearing this, Fu Shan waved his hand and smiled at her.
"I'm not tired! Yifei, I have something to tell you—"
"The Legend of Jia Huan is officially beginning production. And the female lead, Jia Huan, has already been confirmed to be played by you."
"So from now on, Yifei, you're going to have to work hard again."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yifei's pretty face immediately lit up with joy.
"What? The Legend of Jia Huan is starting filming? And I'm playing the female lead, Jia Huan?"
"That's wonderful! Really wonderful!"
"It's not hard work at all. Even if it is, I'm not afraid."
"Fu Shan, don't worry! I'll definitely act well and put my whole heart into it! Hehe."
Xu Yifei had actually read the script for The Legend of Jia Huan long ago.
At the time, she had already liked it very much.
And she had especially wanted to play the female lead, Jia Huan.
This role was completely different from all the characters she had portrayed before.
Jia Huan was a woman with a turbulent fate and an extremely complex inner world.
For Xu Yifei, it was an incredibly challenging role.
If she performed it well, this role could become her breakthrough masterpiece.
It could help her successfully transition from a popular idol actress into a truly respected acting powerhouse.
Although Xu Yifei's acting skills were already highly praised by audiences and fans, many people still regarded her merely as one of the better actresses among young idol and traffic stars.
This perception was closely tied to the fact that most of her previous dramas had been youth romances and idol dramas popular with younger audiences.
But The Legend of Jia Huan was different.
As a more serious and traditional palace intrigue drama, its audience would be much broader.
Women of all age groups—and even men—would watch it.
This would allow more viewers to recognize and appreciate Xu Yifei's acting talent.
Because of this, Xu Yifei had always looked forward to the role of Jia Huan.
Now that Fu Shan had personally told her that the drama was officially entering production and that she had secured the role—
How could she not be thrilled?
And while excited, she naturally had to repeatedly reassure Fu Shan.
Since he had given her such trust and support, she had to work even harder.
Only then could she live up to his faith in her.
(#^.^#)
"Listen to yourself!"
"With you playing the role, what could I possibly worry about?"
Fu Shan laughed helplessly and affectionately glanced at her.
What exactly was going on inside Yifei's little head?
He had always trusted her completely.
Not believing in her?
Impossible.
"Then… what about everything afterward? Do I need to cooperate with the company on anything?"
Blushing beneath Fu Shan's intense gaze, Xu Yifei lowered her eyes awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
Hearing this, Fu Shan immediately waved a hand confidently.
"I'll handle everything after this. Yifei, you don't need to worry about anything."
"I'll take care of all arrangements. You just focus on acting well."
Making Yifei worry about anything besides acting?
Absolutely not.
She only needed to happily pursue her acting career.
Everything else—
He would handle it.
As for the fact that both the male lead and second male lead in The Legend of Jia Huan would also be played by him—
Fu Shan didn't mention that yet.
After all, once filming started, Yifei would find out anyway.
He might as well let it be a surprise for her.
Hehe.
