Huo Ci shot Ling Sheng a dangerous look.

Jun Shiyan reached out and pulled the young lady to his side to protect her.

Ling Sheng hurriedly plastered a smile on her face, feeling a little curious inwardly. Had her dad and mom reconciled? “I’m not eating. Mom, your stomach is weak. You can’t go hungry. You should eat first. The Third Master and I can just help ourselves with the leftovers.”

“Mommy, have some.” Xiaoqi passed her the candied hawthorn.

Ling Sheng took half a bite and there was still half left.

Jun Shiyan looked at the remaining half of the candied hawthorn in Xiaoqi’s hand without speaking. The little fella understood and hurriedly brought it to his mouth.

Huo Ci gave the duo a strange look. Somehow, he had a feeling that something had changed.

There was no need to find someone else to be a model. The two men in her family could replace them. At this time, even when they were being used, they had to be willing no matter what. They didn’t get to decide.

Since Huo Ci had already spoken, Ling Sheng didn’t dare to eat the food he had bought, as she was afraid that her father would punish her. Besides, she kept feeling that the atmosphere between her father and mother seemed to have become a little strange. She didn’t know if it was her misperception.

Upon hearing Ling Sheng’s explanation, Nangong Lengyu was still a little hesitant. She had initially wanted to choose two people from among the guests. As the special guests of this fashion show, the people replacing the models to go on stage were all professionals. Even if they didn’t come from a background as male models, their foundation and qualifications were present. It wouldn’t be a problem for them to guest star in a fashion show.

“Mom.” Ling Sheng pulled Jun Shiyan to Huo Ci’s side and complimented the duo without restraint. “Look at their figures and looks. My father and the Third Master are a million times better than those models.”

Jun Shiyan was a little hesitant. After all, he wasn’t a professional and had never walked down a runway before. However, he had watched other people do it before.

Upon hearing Ling Sheng’s words, Huo Ci was over the moon inside. “I’m handsome in the first place. Do I need you to tell me that?”

“But Ah Yan doesn’t have any relevant experience.” Nangong Lengyu was still a little worried. Even she had to admit that the two people in front of her were indeed first-rate in terms of looks and figures. Even if they were put together with all the male celebrities in the world’s entertainment circle, the two of them would definitely still be outstanding existences.

“It’s all right.” Ling Sheng smiled as she tried to persuade her. “Mom, catwalks are about one’s aura. The Third Master’s aura is 2.8 meters tall1 even if he’s not on stage. He’s definitely the king of the stage.”

Huo Ci gave her a sideways look, his lips curling up in a mocking sneer. He was the king of the stage, with a 2.8-meter aura? What did she take him as, then?

As soon as Ling Sheng finished speaking, she realized that her father seemed to be unhappy. She ran over to him hurriedly and blurted out a string of enthusiastic compliments. “My father’s aura is 3.6 meters. He’s an overlord who looks down on the world.”

Nangong Lengyu was amused by her expressions, actions, and that tone, filled with the desire to survive. She could give it a try. She looked at Huo Ci and asked, “Do you agree?”

Huo Ci raised his head haughtily and said off-handedly, “It doesn’t matter to me.”

Xiaoqi, on the other hand, was very proactive. He raised his hand and jumped in front of Nangong Lengyu. “Grandma, Grandma, can Xiaoqi be with Grandpa and Dad? Can Xiaoqi be a young model?”

Ling Sheng took a look at her son. Look, look, look! This is the most enthusiastic person. However, she placed Xiaoqi between her father and the Third Master for a look and nodded in satisfaction. If the three of them appeared together, they would be absolutely dazzling and stun the whole audience.

Nangong Lengyu patted the child’s small head helplessly and indulgently. Upon seeing the little guy’s expectant look, she nodded. “I’ll arrange for it.”

Anyway, it was her own fashion show, so it wasn’t that strict either. It was still very easy to arrange to stuff a young model in at the last minute. After all, her darling liked it. She could let him walk the runway for the whole performance alone, let alone a brief appearance.

Huo Ci knew that she was worried about the rascal causing trouble, so he said, “Leave Xiaoqi to me. I’ll bring him on stage.”

Xiaoqi jumped up happily and said in a crisp voice, “Thank you, Grandpa.”

Nangong Lengyu had not expected Huo Ci to agree so readily. She looked at Jun Shiyan and said, “Ah Yan, if you can’t go on stage…”

“Sister.” When Nangong Lengmo pushed the door open and entered, he didn’t even care what they were talking about and immediately volunteered, “I can go on stage!”

Ling Sheng turned around and realized that other than Nangong Lengmo, a few other heads had popped in.

Cheng Ye, who was right at the front, waved at her as a greeting. “Sister Sheng Sheng, we’re the representatives of your family and friends.”

Ji Fanchen reached out to pull him to his side and gave his greetings politely with a smile.

Upon seeing her daughter’s happy and surprised expression, Nangong Lengyu explained, “I told them to come.”

Shi Lingyu and Su Yi entered arm in arm, followed by Yu Bei and Lu Yubai.

Upon seeing the group of people arrive, Ling Sheng shot her mother a meaningful look. Now, she didn’t have to worry about not being able to find a model. These people who had come were all existences who could save the situation. Be it their figures, looks, or professional abilities, they were all solid.

One by one, the Eight Immortals entered the room. In the end, two more people followed them in. They were none other than Song Yiyan and Si Chengluo.

Song Yiyan smiled and waved at her before running to Nangong Lengyu’s side. She wasn’t familiar with the Eight Immortals, just that she happened to bump into them when she came over. She had initially come with Sister Xin Xin, but she knew that Ling Sheng didn’t like her much, so she parted ways with her at the end.

Luo Xin bumped into Gu Shen and the two of them went in together.

When Si Chengluo walked in, he greeted everyone in the room one by one. When he saw Jun Shiyan, he only nodded and walked past him.

Xiaoqi was thrilled. The uncles, aunties, and older brothers he liked all came. He held Cheng Ye’s hand and excitedly told him that he would be going on stage later as a young model with his father and grandpa.

When Cheng Ye found out what they were going to do, he recommended himself excitedly. “Do you need more people, Auntie? I can do it.”

Si Chengluo nodded as well and said, “I can do it too. I’ve been a professional model before, so I have experience in this area.”

Ling Sheng was amused. “You guys should have said so earlier, then. If all of you were up for it, my mom wouldn’t even have had to hire models. The models definitely can’t compare to your publicity impact!”

When these people gathered, they could even put together a gala!

Lu Yubai stood beside Huo Ci and asked him in a low voice, “You’re going on stage to save the day?”

He didn’t know if it was because there were a lot of people, nor did he know if it was because Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi were there. Somehow, he kept feeling that the atmosphere between Sixth Brother and Sister Yu seemed to have eased up a lot. How much hatred or enmity was there that they had to cut off all communication?

In the past, one had been in the country, while the other had been overseas. Perhaps they would never get the chance to meet again in their lives. Moreover, there had been a huge misunderstanding between them.

Now, the biggest misunderstanding that had led to their breakup and mutual hatred had been resolved. There was also the addition of Sheng Sheng. Even if the two of them wanted to cut ties with each other, it was impossible. Sheng Sheng was sustaining their relationship as the intermediary!
