Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 5) Chapter 95.2: The Son Is The Villian (14)
However, during the filming process, no one dared to step forward and offer advice.
After yelling at the child, Ying Siyi felt much better. She then stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and said, “Weren’t you going for a walk? Let’s go.”
When Shao Yi saw that Ying Siyi didn’t continue to blame him, he breathed a sigh of relief and was then pulled by her to take the elevator again.
The mother and son took a walk around the neighborhood downstairs, and without causing any trouble, they returned home safely.
Just before his afternoon nap, Shao Yi whispered, “Mom, I’m sweating, I want to take a shower.”
Upon hearing this, Ying Siyi’s face darkened for a moment, inwardly cursing the child for being nosy, but she still nodded in front of the camera.
Although the child was young, it was not convenient to film him taking a bath. Ying Siyi only made a gesture in the bathroom before leaving.
The person who actually bathed the child was Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang was already retired, but he was very skilled at doing this. Even the film crew outside the bathroom could hear the laughter coming from inside.
This side of Shao Yi is completely different from how he is with Ying Siyi.
The crew members couldn’t help but let their imaginations run wild, but Ying Siyi acted as if nothing was wrong, standing aside looking at the contents of her phone with a gloomy expression.
“Siyi?” The agent gently nudged her.
Ying Siyi finally looked away from her phone.
The agent glanced at Ying Siyi’s phone screen and saw the rumors about Shao Yu and Gu Jiaying.
“The most important thing is what’s in front of you,” the agent reminded her.
Ying Siyi nodded with a stern face. As soon as Mr. Zhang brought the child out of the bathroom, she immediately changed to a loving expression and took the child with a smile.
“The baby is so clean after washing,” Ying Siyi said with a smile.
The moment Shao Yi fell into her arms, his body stiffened.
Ying Siyi planned to tell her son a story to lull him to sleep, but after Shao Yi lay down on the bed, he closed his eyes and waited to fall asleep without needing to be coaxed at all, which was a waste of Ying Siyi’s preparations.
Unable to get a story to work, Ying Siyi, wanting to show her maternal love, pulled Shao Yi aside after his afternoon nap and asked him to draw.
After taking out paintbrushes and paper, Ying Siyi said with a smile, “Yiyi, Mom will teach you how to draw.”
Shao Yi nodded obediently.
Ying Siyi started drawing and quickly drew a flower. Pointing to the very simple-looking flower, she taught Shao Yi how to draw it.
Ying Siyi felt she had taught him enough, so she handed the paintbrush to her son and let him draw on his own.Ying Siyi was initially smiling as she watched her son draw, but under the camera’s lens, her expression gradually became somewhat stiff.
Shao Yi finally finished the painting, held it up to show his mother, and said, “Give Mom some flowers!”
The film crew immediately turned their cameras on Shao Yi’s painting.
Although the flowers in the painting did not reach the level of an art student, they were clearly better than those painted by Ying Siyi.
“Yi Yi’s drawing is really good,” Ying Siyi said with a stiff face.
Shao Yi said with some pride, “Mom, have you forgotten? Last March, I won second place in the kindergarten’s painting competition.”
Last March, Ying Siyi had not yet divorced Shao Yu, but Ying Siyi never cared about her children, so she had no idea about this matter.
In the evening, at the request of the production team, Ying Siyi was to receive a visitor.
This visitor will also be bringing their child; they are Du Lan, a guest from the previous episode of the show.
Ying Siyi and Du Lan didn’t have any requests, but when the people arrived, Ying Siyi pretended to be very familiar with them in front of the camera.
The two mothers presented a stark contrast. Du Lan’s daughter was about the same age as Shao Yi, but Shao Yi was much more well-behaved and sensible, and could even feed himself, while Du Lan had to chase after her to feed her.
“I really envy you, Yi-yi is so well-behaved,” Duran praised.
Ying Siyi said with a smile, “I have been consciously teaching him all along.”
Du Lan assumed Ying Siyi had a wealth of parenting experience, so she couldn’t help but ask, “How do you usually teach your children?”
After a moment of hesitation, Ying Siyi quickly began to speak fluently.
Hearing these words, Shao Yi, who was standing to the side, slowly developed a look of confusion on her little face.
“I didn’t know eating mangoes had such benefits. I’ll give my daughter more of them too,” Du Lan said with a smile.
Ying Siyi doesn’t understand her son; she only speaks according to her own preferences.
As they were talking, Ying Siyi casually forked a piece of mango from the table and brought it to Shao Yi’s mouth.
Shao Yi froze upon smelling that odor.
“Why aren’t you eating?” Ying Siyi asked.
Shao Yi shook his head and said, “I can’t eat it, I’m allergic.”
Ying Siyi couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you allergic to everything?”
Du Lan felt a little embarrassed when she saw this scene. She recalled the interview she had seen before. She had thought that it was impossible for a mother not to have feelings for her child, but seeing Ying Siyi like this, she realized that some people really do not have any feelings for their children.
Although Shao Yi was young, he still remembered the pain he felt when he had an allergic reaction to accidentally ingesting something, and he couldn’t help but look at Father Zhang with pleading eyes.
Mr. Zhang wanted to step forward, but was stopped by the director.
The director stopped filming again and couldn’t help but say to Ying Siyi, “Teacher Ying, I have a list of allergenic foods that Director Shao sent me. Why don’t you take a look? After all, we’re going on a trip together later.”
Ying Siyi looked at her agent, who immediately stepped in to smooth things over.
Ying Siyi, who had initially been very friendly to Du Lan, immediately became indifferent after the camera stopped rolling.
After finally managing to get through the day’s filming, the rest of the trip didn’t go smoothly either.
The film crew filmed the whole way and could see that Ying Siyi and her son were extremely estranged.
After filming finally wrapped up, the agent started pressuring the production team to remove any potentially controversial shots.
The production team promised everything on the surface, but when it came time to air, nothing was missing.
Other guest groups have harmonious parent-child relationships, which often results in many heartwarming moments being edited out, and even many parenting methods that provoke deep thought among the audience.
When it came to Ying Siyi’s group, only four words came to mind: terrifying upon closer inspection.
The mother and son’s relationship began and ended in awkwardness. In just two weeks of filming, the audience could clearly see that Shao Yi had lost at least three pounds compared to before. Some people even made before and after comparison pictures, showing that the baby fat on Shao Yi’s face had shrunk considerably.
Ying Siyi’s attempt to establish a good mother persona backfired, and instead, the production team released numerous irresponsible clips of her.
At first, leaving the child at home was a minor issue, but later, during a trip, the child was left behind in a scenic area. If it weren’t for a film crew accompanying the child, viewers wouldn’t even dare to imagine how frightened a small child would be if they were actually left there.
“Damn Hunan TV!” After watching the show, Ying Siyi angrily swept everything off the table.
Seeing this, the agent couldn’t help but sigh and said, “You’ve never taken care of a child before. Who gave you the courage to go on a parenting show?”
Ying Siyi looked up and stared at her.
The agent said, “I’ve told you before, the most important thing for you is to appease Mr. Zheng. Don’t you want the GAAR endorsement?”
As if knowing what she was thinking, the agent said, “Stop thinking about Shao Yu. No matter how good Shao Yu is, he only has two works. Think more about Mr. Zheng. He is the one who can become your foundation. Do you want to experience another husband going bankrupt and being heavily in debt?”
Ying Siyi is a normal person. She always acts casually towards Shao Yu, but she has to be cautious and trembling when facing Mr. Zheng. She instinctively doesn’t want to have too much to do with Mr. Zheng.
But her agent’s words at this moment brought her to her senses. Even if she didn’t want to face it, Ying Siyi had no choice but to force herself to.
Seeing that she had come to her senses, the agent went to the balcony and started making phone calls. Five minutes later, the agent said, “Get ready for 8 PM tonight.”
Ying Siyi nodded reluctantly.
When her agent was out of sight, she took out her phone and called Shao Yu, but no one answered.
She called again and again until she finally got through.
But the person who answered the phone was not Shao Yu, but Zhang Ming.
Zhang Ming doted on Shao Yi, and after watching that program, he had no good feelings towards Ying Siyi whatsoever.
“Let Shao Yu answer the phone, I need to talk to him,” Ying Siyi said.
“Old Shao won’t answer your calls anymore,” Zhang Ming said.
“You’re talking nonsense.”
Zhang Ming ignored her and hung up the phone.
“Will you be angry if I say this?” Zhang Ming asked Shao Yu, who was standing next to him.
Shao Yu shook his head and said, “The child is the most important thing; nothing else matters.”
Zhang Ming breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and when Ying Siyi called again, he immediately blocked her.
Enraged, Ying Siyi slammed the phone to the ground.
At 8 p.m., in a high-end club, Ying Siyi raised her wine glass and smiled at Zheng Minglang.
Zheng Minglang had originally cared about Ying Siyi quite a bit, but now he just leaned back on the sofa and casually raised his hand.
Ying Siyi didn’t understand why this person would suddenly change his attitude, but for the sake of her future, she still tried to force a smile.
Although Zheng Minglang and Ying Siyi were entangled for a long time, he never really succeeded in getting her. He originally thought that Ying Siyi was a virtuous wife and loving mother. At that time, his plan for Ying Siyi was to wait until Shao Yu died before marrying her.
Like Shao Yu, Zheng Minglang comes from a family that works in the entertainment industry. However, unlike Shao Yu, Zheng Minglang is very career-oriented. His ex-wife’s death was shrouded in mystery, which damaged his and his company’s reputation. Therefore, he needs to marry a wife with a good reputation to salvage his image.
Originally, although Ying Siyi had two children, Zheng Minglang saw a good opportunity because of her image as a virtuous wife and loving mother. In the original story, Ying Siyi’s reputation as a virtuous wife and loving mother did indeed help Zheng Minglang a lot.
Ying Siyi’s carefully crafted persona has backfired countless times, tarnishing her reputation. Naturally, Zheng Minglang’s attitude towards her has changed. Now, he only wants to use her for some resources to keep her entertained for a while, and then deal with her later when he’s done with her.
