Chapter 618: Mommy Is Here
Upon seeing Huo Ci and Xiaoqi sit two rows away from them, the girl thought of what he had just told her. She knew that if word got out at this time, it would cause a big commotion. Her husband had his relatives’ child with him, so she could not cause him unnecessary trouble. She hurriedly coughed and said, “I forgot to wear my contact lenses.”
She was so agitated that she felt like she was in heaven. However, no one else knew that her husband had come. Only she knew, but for some reason, she felt that this was a secret only she and her husband knew. It was thrilling.
Huo Ci sat down and took a look. The theater was basically filled with Little Cis. Everyone had a light stick. The movie had yet to start, but an advertis.e.m.e.nt had started playing. The Little Cis in charge of organizing the event had already taken the lead and were singing a chorale. When the silver light sticks lit up, they shone like stars. It was very beautiful.
When Xiaoqi sat down and saw the flashing lights in the Cis’ hands, he whispered regretfully, “Grandpa, I forgot to bring support light sticks.”
Huo Ci tapped his head. “Do you know how to sing?”
Actually, this was not the first time he had seen the Little Cis organize an offline event. Every time a movie of his was released, someone would organize an event. Sometimes, he would sneak in secretly, like now.
When Ling Sheng, who had followed the location of Xiaoqi’s phone and watch, walked in, she saw small silver stars sparkling in the cinema. They were like a silver sea, beautiful and shiny.
Silver was the color the fandom used to support her father. It turned out that the cinema had been booked by the Little Cis. The song they were singing had been personally composed by her father and given to the fans’ “On the Way” to thank them for their company.
Later, this song had become a chorale for the Little Cis. No matter the occasion, this song would definitely be the first to be sung. She had not known that this song would be so pleasant and heart-stirring when the Little Cis sang it. She was touched when she heard it.
Xiaoqi’s eyes were sharp, so he saw Ling Sheng immediately. His big eyes lit up and shone. He swallowed the word “Mommy” and tugged at Huo Ci quietly. “Grandpa, Mommy is here.”
By the time Huo Ci looked over, Ling Sheng had already run over quickly. She squatted beside the duo and whispered, “Dad, look over here. I bought tickets for the hall next door. I’ll come and find you when the movie ends.”
Huo Ci shot her a disdainful look. “What are you doing here?”
Ling Sheng raised the movie ticket in her hand and chuckled. “I’m contributing to the box office! I’ll mobilize more people tomorrow to boost your box office sales.”
Huo Ci lowered his voice. “As if I need you to contribute to the box office!”
The Little Cis were still singing and were immersed in this joyful gathering. Ling Sheng knew that it was not a good time to speak, as it would be a little disrespectful. She thus smiled sweetly. “Then I’ll go next door.”
Huo Ci said, “Scram.”
Before Ling Sheng left, she even took half a bucket of popcorn and kissed her precious son. In a low voice, she said, “Mommy will find you after the movie. Be good and listen to Grandpa.”
Xiaoqi was overjoyed. He nodded hurriedly and held his mother’s hand, unwilling to let her go. In the end, he even gave her his c.o.ke. Mommy only had popcorn, so she would definitely be thirsty.
Ling Sheng gave her son another kiss, feeling unwilling to leave. She wanted to hug the child and kiss him until she was satisfied. Thus, she squatted beside him for a long time. When the Little Cis finished singing the chorale and the movie was about to start, she left reluctantly.
