No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

“Mommy!” Qin Xiaobai exclaimed and jumped to her instantly.

Yiyi and the makeup artist were dumbfounded. ‘What happened?’

Qin Muxuan held Qin Xiaobai in her arms, suppressing her tears. ‘I haven’t hugged him for three years.’ However, she couldn’t tell him the truth.

The mother tried to compose herself and act normally. After a while, she gently pushed Qin Xiaobai away. She grinned. “You’re Xiaobai, right? You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not your mother.”

The child gaped at Qin Muxuan. His big eyes were full of confusion. ‘Why does mommy say that?’

Qin Xiaobai’s expression stung the woman’s heart.

“No, you’re my mom! Mommy, do you wanna get rid of me…” The boy became choked up. Tears were about to fall.

Yiyi understood out of the blue. ‘I’ve heard that Qin Xuan resembles Xiaobai’s mother. He must have mistaken her for Qin Muxuan.’ Considering that, Yiyi strode over immediately and apologized. “Sorry, Ms. Qin. You look like Xiaobai’s mother, so he thought you were her.”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan beamed. “It’s okay.”

However, Qin Xiaobai became more perplexed. His face puckered. The child still couldn’t believe that the woman before him was not his mother.

“Xiaobai, you need to finish your makeup. The shooting will start soon.” Yiyi crouched down, talking to the boy who stared at Qin Muxuan in a trance.

“Are you really not my mom?” Qin Xiaobai ignored Yiyi, but asked Qin Muxuan stubbornly.

“No, I’m not.”

Qin Muxuan’s words dimmed the kid’s eyes. “Mommy left me three years ago, so I’ve gotten the wrong person.” Qin Xiaobai got his wits together.

He wiped away his tears and gave Qin Muxuan a bright smile. “Sorry, Ms. Qin. Would you like to dine with me after work?”

Although the boy realized that the woman was not his mother, he wanted to stay with her.

Qin Xiaobai nervously waited for her answer. Noticing that, Qin Muxuan couldn’t refuse, so she nodded. “Yes. It’s my pleasure.”

Hearing that, Qin Xiaobai was overjoyed. “Deal! Please keep your promise, Ms. Qin.”

“Of course. I swear I’ll dine with you.”

Hearing that, Qin Xiaobai was relieved. He jumped onto the chair. His makeup artist started putting makeup on him.

As soon as the makeup was done, someone knocked on the door. Then the door was opened by Chen. He strode in, greeting everyone. Chen stood beside Qin Xiaobai. “We are about to start shooting, Xiaobai. The director asked you to show up.”

The boy nodded. He rose from the chair and turned to Qin Muxuan. A broad smile touched his lips. “Ms. Qin, I should say goodbye. See you later!”

“See you.” Qin Muxuan grinned.

After that, Qin Xiaobai followed Chen out. Only Qin Muxuan, Jian Xi and Qin Xiaobai’s makeup artist stayed in the dressing room.

The makeup artist noticed that Qin Xiaobai seemed to like Qin Muxuan, so he walked over. “Ms. Qin, my name’s Li Yun. I’m Xiaobai’s makeup artist. It seems that you need some touch-ups. Would you mind me helping you?”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan turned around subconsciously to look in the mirror. Her foundation was smudged on the skin. ‘Well, it might be messed up when I held Qin Xin in the car.’

“Thank you.” Qin Muxuan beamed.

Not expecting the star was easy-going, Li Yun nodded immediately. “It’s my pleasure.” The dresser placed all kinds of cosmetics on a table in front of Qin Muxuan and started working. In fact, Qin Muxuan not only needed some touch-ups but also some changes. She had put on makeup by herself, which was inadequate. A professional was better than an amateur.

Li Yun put away the brushes about ten minutes later. “Ms. Qin, it’s done.”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan looked in the mirror. She was stunning now. “Awesome. Thank you.” Qin Muxuan chuckled.

Li Yun became bashful after hearing Qin Muxuan’s compliments. He was just a makeup artist of some renown. It was his pleasure to be selected by Qin Xiaobai.

“Ms. Qin, you have a delicate face. Makeup’s only the cherry on top.”

“Thank you.”

“Xuan, let’s go. It’s time.” Jian Xi checked the time and said to Qin Muxuan.

The latter nodded and turned to Li Yun. “Excuse me, we should leave now.”

“Okay, goodbye.”

After that, Qin Muxuan and Jian Xi went to the shooting site. Noticing them, Chen pulled a chair out for Qin Muxuan, “Ms. Qin, please take a seat. I’ll bring you some water.” After saying that, Chen hurried away.

Sitting on the chair, Qin Muxuan gazed at Qin Xiaobai. At this moment, the kid showed a solemn face, which attracted the woman’s attention.

Qin Xiaobai behaved in a professional manner. Seeing that, Qin Muxuan felt someone was cutting her heart. She couldn’t imagine how the kid toughed it out in these three years. The mother hoped her son could have a carefree childhood as his peers if possible.

Tears welled up in her eyes. ‘I owe him too much.’

As Qin Muxuan’s eyes were fixed on Qin Xiaobai, Chen strode over with bottles of water in his hands. “Ms. Qin, here you are.” He provided Qin Muxuan and Jian Xi with bottles of mineral water.

“Thank you.” Qin Muxuan expressed her thanks towards Chen.

“You’re welcome. It will be your turn after Xiaobai finishes his rounds.”

“Got it.”

Qin Muxuan nodded. She continued to stare at Qin Xiaobai who was shooting. The boy’s outstanding performance pleased the director who repeatedly applauded.

“Cut!” The director shouted out of the blue.

“Good job, Xiaobai. You can have a rest. Don’t forget to come here in the afternoon.” He smiled from ear to ear, speaking to the kid.

Hearing that, Qin Xiaobai nodded. He turned around, finding Qin Muxuan was gazing at him not far away. The boy waved at the woman.

Noticing that, Qin Muxuan grinned. She waved back at him.

The child rushed over with a smile. “Ms. Qin, do you like my performance?”

“Yes, you are an awesome actor.” Chuckling, Qin Muxuan unscrewed the bottle cap and gave him the water.

Qin Xiaobai took it and gulped down the water.

Seeing that, Chen immediately offered another bottle and placed it on a table beside Qin Muxuan. He was astonished inwardly. ‘I didn’t expect that Ms. Qin and Xiaobai would be so close.’

“Chen!” The director signalled for Chen to come over.

Chen trotted over immediately. “Is there anything wrong?”

“Is that Qin Xuan? Tell her to get ready. We are about to start shooting.” The director detested such a person who relied on nepotism. He thought that she became famous because of her sponsor.

“Got it.”

Chen didn’t know the director’s thoughts. He rushed towards Qin Muxuan. “Ms. Qin,

It’s time. The director asked you to be there.”

“Okay.” Qin Muxuan nodded. She then lowered her head to talk to Qin Xiaobai. “I need to work now. Xiaobai, wait for me.”

Qin Muxuan didn’t forget her promise.

“Okay, I’ll stay here. Goodbye, Ms. Qin.” The boy nodded meekly.

Seeing that, the woman turned around and strode away. It was her first time to shoot a film. She tensed up.

“Scene 30th. Cut 1. The first time. Start!” The director ordered abruptly.

Receiving the message, Qin Muxuan immediately got in the zone. Fortunately, she recited all the lines in advance. Otherwise, she would forget when facing cameras.

As the countdown finished, Qin Muxuan started acting.

Staring at Qin Muxuan through the screen, the director was stunned as time went by. ‘I thought she was an eye candy but not a good actress, but it seems that I was wrong. She’s good at acting.’

“Cut! Perfect, move on to cut 2!”

Everyone was dumbfounded. They couldn’t believe that Qin Muxuan succeeded at one try. Even Qin Muxuan was surprised. However, she suppressed her astonishment immediately after hearing the doctor’s instruction. Lines flashed through her mind.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

As time fled. Qin Muxuan finished her scenes in an hour. The director changed his view. After all, most of her performances were successful at one try except two cuts. In addition, she had only prepared for one day. Everyone admired her efficiency.
