After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 90

Chapter 90: Bald Little Zhouzhou
Qin Lie looked at her amusingly and followed her pace. They had been here before, but back then, they were here to meet Yang Pengcheng as guests. Now their roles had completely changed. She was the boss of this company.

The manager Qin Lie had previously sent was already waiting for them on the side. Seeing Qin Lie’s expression, he understood his intention and respectfully said to Zhouzhou, “Miss Qin, would you like me to show you around the company first?”

Miss Qin? Calling her that?

Zhouzhou blinked and looked at Qin Lie. Seeing him nod, she cleared her throat lightly and placed her hand behind her back, imitating his serious expression, trying her best to appear more like a boss. However, the moment she opened her mouth, her soft and gentle voice instantly ruined the act.

“Sure, Uncle, thank you. Sorry to trouble you.”

The manager wanted to laugh, but he didn’t dare to be the slightest bit negligent towards her. Even if Zhouzhou was gentle, there was a big tiger behind her. No one dared to underestimate her.

He carefully introduced the company to her, but Zhouzhou listened in a daze. After going around once, her initial excitement had faded away.

She just wanted to have some fun and didn’t really want to manage the company. She wouldn’t manage it either.

She pitifully turned her head and looked at Qin Lie.

Qin Lie gently patted her head and raised his chin. “Go and have fun.”

Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up. “Thank you, Dad! You’ve worked hard!”

Saying that, she spread her short legs and ran towards the place where Xiao Lan was shooting the advertisement.

She hadn’t learned how to be a boss yet, but she had already learned how to be a carefree boss.

Fortunately, Qin Lie didn’t mind. He shook his head with a smile, then turned to the manager and said softly, “Get ready for a shareholder meeting.”

“Yes.”

When Zhouzhou arrived, Xiao Lan was still doing her makeup.

The setting of the Optimus game was a martial arts world, so Xiao Lan’s appearance was also in ancient style, a bit complicated. At the moment, she was working on her hairstyle.

Zhouzhou curiously peeked over, her eyes filled with amazement.

Xiao Lan also looked at her, her gaze falling on Zhouzhou’s head. Suddenly, she remembered something. Zhouzhou had been with them for over a month now, but why hadn’t her hair grown back yet?

Although most people went bald early these days, Zhouzhou seemed to have gone bald too early.

Afraid of touching on the child’s sadness, Xiao Lan didn’t have the heart to ask. She only asked, “Zhouzhou, would you like to have a hairstyle too?”

She didn’t have hair, but she could wear a wig, that would be fine too.

Zhouzhou was curious and touched her bald head. She nodded repeatedly, “Okay, okay.”

Xiao Lan pulled a makeup artist from the team to style Zhouzhou’s hair. The little girl was cute, soft-looking, and harmless. Everyone in the room instantly liked her at first sight.

The makeup artist was a bit chubby with a round face. She smiled cheerfully and said, “Let’s first choose a wig, shall we?”

“Okay.” Zhouzhou nodded and followed her to the next room.

The makeup artist was searching for a suitable wig while Zhouzhou curiously watched. She noticed that there were some small stubbles on her head in the mirror, so she raised her hand and touched them. It felt a bit prickly.

She looked around and found a blade, and the chubby hand skillfully shaved her scalp, and soon it was all clean-shaven.

Feeling satisfied, she nodded and took out a porcelain bottle from her bag, poured some liquid into her palm, rubbed it, and applied it to her head.

The makeup artist had found a headpiece and led Zhouzhou back to the set. Upon hearing the commotion, Xiao Lan also turned to look and exclaimed, “Zhouzhou, why is your head shining?” It seemed to reflect light under the lamp, as if something had been applied to it. Was it an illusion?

Zhouzhou opened her hand and showed it to Xiao Lan, who touched it and found it oily. She wondered where the little girl had picked it up. Without investigating further, Xiao Lan took out a wet wipe and carefully wiped her hands.

The makeup artist was skillful and quickly finished styling Zhouzhou’s hair. It was a beautiful double bun hairstyle with a hairpin hanging from a small flower bud, making her look delicate and lovely. Zhouzhou stared at the person in the mirror, blinked in surprise, and the person in the mirror blinked back. It was indeed her. It looked good. She had never had this hairstyle before and couldn’t take her eyes off it.

Xiao Lan also held her and looked at her carefully, nodding in satisfaction. The little girl was very pretty, with fair and tender skin. She didn’t need makeup at all, just a vermilion mole on her forehead, making her look like a little fairy from heaven, extremely adorable. Xiao Lan couldn’t help but kiss her on the face and said, “You look so beautiful.”

Zhouzhou curiously touched her hair and laughed along. She also thought she looked good.

Soon, the director called Xiao Lan over. It was just a commercial, not as long as a script, and Xiao Lan’s performance was excellent. They finished shooting within the morning, with only a few additional shots. Zhouzhou watched by the side, touched her hair, and wanted to show it to Qin Lie. But as soon as she ran to the office door, she heard a “crash” sound, as if a cup had fallen and shattered, followed by an angry voice, “Qin Lie!”

It was Qin Yan’s voice. It sounded like they were arguing. Zhouzhou was startled and quickly pushed the door open. She saw a broken teacup on the floor, Qin Lie and Qin Yan standing opposite each other with increasingly grim expressions. Qin Yan clenched his fists tightly, his muscles tense, his eyes sparking with anger as he glared at Qin Lie.

Qin Lie’s face also darkened, emanating a cold and stern aura. Zhouzhou had never seen him like this before and stood there stunned for a moment. Hearing the commotion, Qin Lie turned his head and saw her. His expression softened slightly. He didn’t want to argue in front of the child and spoke calmly, “This project is not feasible. The production crew has already disbanded, and no one dares to invest even if you want to continue. This is Zhang Ming’s new script, and I’ve secured it for you. You can go ahead.”

Saying that, he handed the script to Qin Yan and walked toward Zhouzhou. Qin Yan couldn’t contain his anger and shouted, “Who do you think you are?”

Zhouzhou could visibly see Qin Lie’s expression change slightly, and his footsteps paused. However, Qin Yan didn’t notice and ran over angrily, asking, “Who do you think you are, rejecting my script, disbanding the crew, and not allowing anyone to invest? Qin Lie, who do you think you are? Just because you’re the CEO of the Qin family, do you think you can do whatever you want?”

Qin Lie’s face instantly darkened, he turned around, and with an expressionless face, he said, “That’s right. With just one word from me, I can make sure you don’t get any roles. If you want to act, go ahead and finance it yourself. After all, this isn’t the first time you’ve done such a thing.”

“You!” Qin Yan was furious, his eyes bloodshot, and he swung his clenched fist.

Zhouzhou was startled and immediately stepped forward to pull Qin Lie away, nervously calling out, “Third Elder Uncle!”

However, Qin Yan’s hand didn’t come down. Even if Qin Lie stood still, he wouldn’t hit him. He looked at Qin Lie, and the expression on his face slowly dissipated until finally, the emotions in his eyes also faded, turning into indifference. He looked at him coldly, without a trace of warmth, and sarcastically said, “I’m not as capable as you, CEO Qin. Thank you for sparing me. You gave me a role as the male lead in Zhang’s production. I truly appreciate it, but I don’t need it anymore.”

With that, he smashed the script in his hand onto the ground, and without looking back, he walked out, slamming the door shut with a “bang.” The office instantly fell silent, completely quiet.

Zhouzhou looked at the mess on the floor and then at Qin Lie, whose expression was equally grim. She anxiously held his hand and said, “Dad.”

Qin Lie lowered his head and looked at her, suppressing his anger, his brows softening. Just as he was about to speak, they suddenly heard a startled cry from outside the door, “Qin Yan!”
