Nan Zhi’s mother was a well-known anchorwoman when she was in her prime. Nan Zhi’s dream since she was a child was to follow her mother’s footsteps and sit on the broadcasting stage.
She learned broadcasting and hosting while she was abroad, in between looking after her mother and taking care of Xiaojie.
Yanran called Nan Zhi to tell her that NCTV Broadcasting Station was recently recruiting for an anchorperson.
“Pretty Zhizhi, I heard from G.o.dma that you’re going for an interview at the broadcasting station, right?” Xiaojie, who was sitting on the medical bed wearing a white and black checkered medical gown, asked excitedly as he swung his long legs back and forth.
Xiaojie was a lot taller than most children his age. Nan Zhi could faintly remember that the man that she had slept with that night was very tall.
Although Xiaojie resembled her a lot, his height was probably inherited from that man.
“Pretty Zhizhi, Jie Gege knows that he’s good-looking, but aren’t you tired of looking at me after three years?”
Nan Zhi laughed at Xiaojie’s words. Her slender fingers pinched his soft cheek. “Mummy won’t get tired of looking at you for the rest of my life.”
“Wow, our Pretty Zhizhi really knows how to sweet-talk.” The boy’s sweet smile made his eyes sparkle, as if there were stars weaved into them. “I want kisses and hugs.”
Nan Zhi pecked Xiaojie’s tender cheek. “Of course! I only sweet-talk to Jie Gege.”
“Pretty Zhizhi, when I was chatting with Nurse Jiejie yesterday, she said that my eyes don’t look like yours. Do my eyes look like my bad daddy’s, who slept with you, but didn’t take responsibility?!”
Nan Zhi pursed her lips and smiled. “Maybe. I can’t remember how he looked like either.”
“Then you can start looking for him based on Jie Gege’s eyes? He might be the one if he looks like me.”
Nan Zhi laughed at Xiaojie’s child-like chatter.
