The two elders’ children were already married and did not stay with them.
It was rare for a junior to take the initiative to look for them. Auntie Song was quite happy too. “Hey, don’t just stand there. Come and sit.”
Song Linghua and Huo Chenhuan’s mother used to be very close friends, but after they got married, especially after they had their own children, they gradually lost contact.
Even when Huo Chenhuan’s parents passed away, Song Linghua only found out about it after a long time.
“We were quite surprised when we suddenly heard about your parents from a senior from school. They were such good people. I didn’t expect them to…”
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.” Luo Baogeng saw that his wife was sad and frowned. He reminded her softly, “The children are still here.”
It was only then that Song Linghua remembered that Huo Chenhuan was probably the saddest one when his parents passed away. She quickly changed the topic. “You’ve grown up and have your own family now. From now on… live a good life.”
“Yes,” Huo Chenhuan replied as he looked into Song Linghua’s gentle eyes that were similar to his mother’s.
Then, he went straight to the point. “Actually, we came here today to disturb you because we have something to ask Uncle Luo for help.”
Luo Baogeng was stunned. “You want my help?”
“Yes.” Su Yayan saw that Huo Chenhuan had spoken, so she told him the truth. “I won’t hide it from you. I have an entertainment company that recently got a new script. It’s about ancient opera.”
These words stunned the two elders, especially Song Linghua. A glint flashed across her eyes.
“This drama is a big IP that our company is investing in. The plot is rigorous and the background is grand…”
Before Su Yayan could finish, Luo Baogeng interrupted her. “You want me to direct this drama?”
“Yes.”
“Sorry, I haven’t taken on this kind of job for a long time.”
Su Yayan knew that this wasn’t going to be easy, and she was mentally prepared to be rejected.
Therefore, she didn’t panic too much. Instead, she took out the script that he had prepared beforehand and handed it to the two of them. She pleaded, “Don’t be in a hurry to reject it. I’ve brought the script over. Take a look first. If you’re really not satisfied, we won’t force you.”
Luo Baogeng did not take it. He frowned and seemed to be angry.
Song Linghua opened her mouth and was about to persuade him when the doorbell rang.
The sudden noise broke the subtle atmosphere in the room. Song Linghua pushed Luo Baogeng and asked him to open the door.
Luo Baogeng stood up unwillingly. As soon as he walked out, Song Linghua said to Su Yayan and Luo Baogeng, “My old man has always been a straightforward person. Don’t mind him. As for filming, he’s getting on in years. He hasn’t been doing this for years. You should find someone else.”
“Aunt Song, we…” Su Yayan was about to persuade her when she heard a cheerful voice.
“Grandma Song, my mom asked me to bring you and Grandpa Luo fruits. Eh, you have a guest at home?”
$u Yayan and the rest looked in the direction of the voice and saw a round-faced girl walking in excitedly with a bag of items.
Seeing the two strangers in the house, the girl stopped in her tracks and looked at them curiously.
“Xiao Xi, you’re here.” Song Linghua waved at the girl with a faint smile, gesturing for her to come over. “It’s fine that you’re here, why are you bringing things again? We haven’t even finished eating the bag of pears you brought earlier!”
