Chapter 589: Qin Lan and Xin Zhilei Come to See Re Ba!

~7 min read 1,339 words

The dinner party didn't end until 9:30 pm.

After it ended, everyone naturally went back to their own homes to look for their own mothers.

After all, at their age, each family already has children.

But none of them had the mind to play a second round or anything.

Robots' worldwide box office keeps climbing.

And Lin Mo was on the news broadcast once again.

About that.

Netizens all said they were used to it.

Including Lin Mo himself.

Being on the news broadcast is like eating a meal; after a few consecutive appearances, it feels nothing.

After returning to Mo Du.

Lin Mo has been running to the office frequently these past few days.

Nezha 2 wrapped before the New Year.

However, because Lin Mo's Robots was in the Spring Festival slot, Jiaozi deliberately avoided it.

After all.

When the Boss's new movie came out, its hype covered the sky.

Even if Jesus came, he couldn't stop this box office.

Especially after watching the film, Jiaozi and the Nezha 2 team members were so demoralized they lost confidence.

There's no way; Robots is a dimensional‑reduction strike against current animations.

Meanwhile.

Lin Mo is at the company, not at home, while two guests have arrived at his house.

When the doorbell rang, Re Ba was holding Nuan Nuan on the balcony sunbathing.

Opening the door, she saw Qin Lan holding a fruit basket and Xin Zhilei carrying two large bags of baby supplies.

"Ah, Lan jie, Lei jie?"

Re Ba was surprised for a moment when she saw the two of them.

"Surprise!" Qin Lan hugged Re Ba, "Let us see if Little Princess has gotten chubby~"

Xin Zhilei squatted down, making a funny face at Nuan Nuan: "Look at those big eyes, they take after Mom; the dimples take after Dad—what will they be like when grown up?"

Nuan Nuan giggled, her little hand reaching for Xin Zhilei's earrings.

"Come in quickly and sit, why did you come!"

Re Ba hurriedly ushered the two inside.

Then, she didn't forget to call out, "Wang Yi, guests have arrived!"

After entering and taking seats, Qin Lan looked around, placed the fruit basket on the table, and said, "Huh? Director Lin? Not home."

"He's at the company; Nezha 2 is in post‑production," Re Ba poured tea for them, "You don't know, Jiaozi the director and his team became reclusive after watching Robots…"

Xin Zhilei burst out laughing, "How could they not be reclusive? During breaks our crew kept discussing that Director Lin forced all the world's animation directors into a corner with two robots."

"Yeah, Robots' box office is now $2.6 billion, it's terrifying!" Qin Lan also sighed.

Nuan Nuan suddenly cried "Ah" and shoved the bitten strawberry into Xin Zhilei's mouth.

"Ouch, little ancestor feeding me!" Xin Zhilei caught it with her mouth, "This is sweeter than any Michelin three‑star dish~"

Then she saw Xiao Jiahuo leaning on the coffee table, wobbling a few steps, and landing right into Qin Lan's arms.

"My god, Nuan Nuan can walk!" Qin Lan clumsily hugged Xiao Jiahuo, "When did she learn?"

Re Ba quickly set down her cup, her face full of surprise, "She hasn't fully mastered walking! She only just managed to stand with support these past days, didn't expect her to let go today!"

Nuan Nuan wriggled in Qin Lan's arms, her little feet kicking nonstop, seeming to want to try again.

Xin Zhilei quickly took out her phone, "Quick, quick, let Nuan Nuan walk two more steps, I'll record it!"

"Careful, careful!" Re Ba nervously spread her arms to guard beside.

Nuan Nuan staggered two steps, then slipped, and quick‑eyed Qin Lan caught her.

"Ouch, my little sweetheart!" Qin Lan petted Nuan Nuan's tiny foot with affection.

Re Ba laughed, bringing her daughter back, "You don't know, two days ago my husband, to teach her to walk, lay on the floor as a human guardrail, and Nuan Nuan rode him like a horse for half an hour…"

As she spoke, Lin Mo returned, and the three of them turned their heads together.

"ba.. ba" Nuan Nuan suddenly blurted two clear syllables, and, under Lin Mo's shocked gaze, waddled toward him.

Lin Mo lunged forward in a single stride, steadying his daughter the instant she was about to fall; his excited voice trembled, "Our Nuan Nuan… can walk?"

Xin Zhilei and Qin Lan suppressed laughter, raising their phones to record the moment.

Re Ba walked over, gently leaning on Lin Mo's shoulder, "Surprised? Your daughter performed just because she was waiting for you to come back."

"We're catching a historic moment!" Xin Zhilei hoisted her phone, laughing uproariously, "Director Lin, your expression is more spectacular than taking an Oscar!"

Qin Lan also laughed, "Isn't that right? Director Lin, when I watched the Oscar Awards Ceremony live, you didn't get this excited when you won Best Director~"

Lin Mo, one hand cradling Nuan Nuan, took the wet wipe Re Ba handed over with his other hand to wipe his daughter's drool, "Why did you both come? You didn't even tell me in advance."

Xin Zhilei sat cross‑legged on the carpet, reaching to tease Nuan Nuan's little foot, "We've both been idle lately; my new drama just wrapped, and Lan jie has nothing to do day after day, so we thought we'd come see if our Little Princess has grown into a big girl~"

Qin Lan shot her a look, then pulled a singing doll from the baby supplies bag, "Nuan Nuan, look~" She pressed the doll's belly and music played.

Nuan Nuan's eyes lit up instantly, struggling to get out of her father's arms; Lin Mo just placed her on the carpet, and Xiao Jiahuo immediately crawled toward the doll using hands and feet.

"You two aren't just passing by, are you? Dinner together tonight?"

Lin Mo looked at the two and asked.

"Of course, we came especially to take on the rich!" Qin Lan laughed.

"Exactly, Director Lin, your money-making speed is such that even if our whole entertainment circle combined, we still can't match you!" Xin Zhilei also said.

Hearing their words, Lin Mo was also speechless: "Well, if you put it that way, I'm practically becoming the richest!"

"Haha~!"

The two accompanied Re Ba and spent a while with Xiao Jiahuo, and also took a photo and sent it to the Huashao group.

Qin Lan: "Ding ding dang, look at whether our little princess is getting prettier and prettier! 【photo. jpg】"

She had just posted this message a few seconds ago.

Zhao Zhaoyi then came out: "Wow, Warm Nuan Princess is so pretty! @Re Ba, Re Ba sis, in a few days I'll also come see you, I'll bring you the absolute best food from Da Lian!"

Qin Hailu: "@Qin Lan, @Xin Zhilei, you two are just sneaking off, aren't you? Not inviting me!"

Xin Zhilei: "Big sis, no, I just happened to have an event in Yanjing and met Lan sis, then I thought of coming together to see Re Ba~"

Wang Anyu: "Re Ba sis and Lan sis are definitely doing this on purpose!"

Qin Lan: "@Wang Anyu, shut up!!!"

The group chat instantly heated up.

In the evening, Lin Mo invited the two to dinner and also invited Yang Mi.

Yang Mi and Qin Lan's relationship has always been good.

With the release of Robots, its popularity is heating up.

Everyone also thought of the Nuan Nuan Children's Foundation that Lin Mo had set up earlier.

This is it.

Netizens are discussing it enthusiastically online.

"I remember Director Lin said he would donate 10% of the movie's box office to the foundation!"

Damn, Robots could easily break 4 billion in box office, and it's in dollars... 10% would be... 400 million dollars!

"Hiss... can only say it's too awesome!"

I've already watched it three times, and I took my kids to see it twice!

No, I need to buy another ticket to watch it once more, just as an act of charity!

I'll go too, I'll go too!
