Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

The appraisal work at Dream Star had come to a close. Shen Qianshu no longer had to go to Dream Star. After submitting all the reports, she returned to her usual job and continued doing appraisal work. Lin Xiaojuan received an invitation to film an outdoor reality TV show, and she brought Tong Hua out for the show.

The reality TV show took the nation by storm from the first episode.

This was a reality TV show relating to traveling. Tong Hua was the youngest guest on the show. He broke free from his usual obedient persona and let loose, revealing his true character on the show. In one day, he was filmed for eighteen hours. If he had to act well-behaved the entire time, he felt that it would not be ‘real.’

After the first episode of the show was broadcasted on TV, people labeled Tong Hua as a genius child with high IQ and high EQ. His IQ was way ahead of others. He spoke fluent English and French interchangeably, which attracted a lot of fans. Furthermore, Tong Hua did not mind flaunting his skills in front of the camera. Being skillful in playing the piano, organ, and harmonica also made many musicians cheer for him.

The most surprising thing was that Tong Hua’s education level had already reached high school standards. This was what made people feel strange about him. Lin Xiaojuan wanted to help make Shen Qianshu more popular as well and paid people to make Shen Qianshu seem better than what she was.

The outside world complimented her for being a mother who could groom a child into a genius. Shen Qianshu received a lot of praise, and it was clear that since she became an internet celebrity, there was no turning back. An outcome like this made Tong Hua extremely happy.

No one could be happier than Shen Qianshu when it came to Tong Hua having a broad future with no obstacles.

Tong Hua felt more relaxed on reality TV than when he was acting, as it was less stressful. He was like a little child being well taken care of by the other guests. Shen Qianshu was slightly more relieved, and at the same time, she was doing preparations for the product Shen Lin was using for the competition.

Shen Lin hurried her almost once every three days to hand her designs. Shen Qianshu procrastinated on purpose. She knew Shen Lin too well. The previous time, she designed a beautiful piece of work for Shen Lin that she really liked, but Shen Lin was dissatisfied and wanted her to redo it. She ended up handing her three designs. Later on, she found out that Shen Lin had used the two other designs that she had rejected on other competitions and even boasted to others that she came up with those ideas on the spot. That won her good reputation.

She was put in the limelight, and she took the nation by storm.

Shen Qianshu was furious about it, but Shen Lin said calmly that no matter what, her designs all belonged to Shen Lin and that it was her choice if she wanted to use them or not. Shen Qianshu had no right to say anything. After learning her lesson, she vowed to never let history repeat itself again.

No matter how Shen Lin hurried her, she insisted on not giving her any extra works.

Let the strong be strong, for I am the cool breeze that brushes the small hill; let the unreasonable be unreasonable, for I am the bright moon that illuminates the great river ¹ .

She refused to budge.

Shen Qianshu was no pushover. Since she was young, she had been losing out. First, it was to Shen Lin. Then, it was to Ye Ling. Other than these two people, she had never lost to anyone else. She knew all of Shen Lin’s weaknesses and was right about her every sly move. The more Shen Lin hurried her, the more she felt relaxed.

She posted photos of herself doing recreational activities all over her social media accounts. She went fishing, drinking tea, playing basketball, and going for spa treatments… Every time she posted something, Shen Lin would look for her angrily, and Shen Qianshu also got a confirmation that Shen Lin was indeed always observing how she lived her life.

The better her life was, the more heartbroken Shen Lin felt.

Shen Qianshu was very sure about that.

The day before the jewelry design competition of City A, Shen Lin came to her house again to demand for her work angrily. Shen Qianshu finally handed her the designs.

Shen Lin was very unhappy about it. “Shen Qianshu, you did that on purpose, huh?”

“Yup! That’s right. I did it intentionally.”
