Rebirth of the Little Actor – Chapter 9
Such a good Brother Shen will be Ning Rong’s best friend from now on.
Lu Tian Shen’s hand stayed at the edge of the cup, and in a rare moment, he suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
He took a sip of juice to settle his nerves and spoke tentatively:
“I did not hear you just now, what …… did you say you want the paternity test report?”
“Someone suspects that you are not Uncle An’s biological child?”
An Xing tried to recall the mood of his last life when he just heard the rumors, and substituting it into the present day, he was suddenly full of aggression without having to act.
“Last time I didn’t tell you about it, but my cousin at the company was not happy with me, and simply every word he said was digging a hole for me ……”
“And now I’m working in the design department, but someone told me that there are still rumors about me in the company, saying that I’m not my parents’ biological child… They’re going too far!”
The teenager’s pair of almond eyes are glaring wide open, and his light curry colored eyebrows are damp, and the corners of his lips that were born with a smile are deflated, making him look innocent and pitiful. Lu Tian Shen almost instantly believed the words of the teenager, and was furious in his heart.
An Hao was too much and too ignorant, how could he bully Xingxing like this!
Luckily, An Hao was only a year younger than him, and the few years that he was older than Xingxing, he had lived in a dog’s stomach!
Oh, there is no meaning of scolding, An Hao and his family are all dogs.
The moment Lu Tian Shen’s eyes changed slightly, An Xing knew that he believed. He couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief, which was followed by a lot of guilt.
He knew he could not tell anyone about this incident of the reality, no matter who he told it to, it would be a futile attempt to add to the trouble, or cause grief. An Xing was also not of a flamboyant nature, and the only thing he wanted to change when he came back from rebirth was just to remove the knot between the An family couple and Ning Rong.
He hoped that the matter of recognizing family members would go smoothly, so that Shen Ying would not be stimulated and Ning Rong would not be left alone again.
Originally, everything could have been done slowly, but considering that it was less than a month before the truth was revealed, An Xing really couldn’t think of a better way, and could only do the most direct thing, first get the paternity report and hand it over to the An family couple by himself.
He knew An Zhaoming and Shen Ying very well, those two were both strong as a father and a mother. In his last life, Shen Ying was greatly stimulated because of her sense of responsibility, and when she learned of Ning Rong’s suffering she blamed herself and was pained, and that’s why she fell ill. And in this life, as long as he first showed his helplessness and sadness, Shen Ying and An Zhaoming will definitely try to be strong.
Just …… An Xing felt guilty thinking that he invariably lied to Lu Tian Shen.
Lu Tian Shen opened his mouth to interrupt An Xing’s dwelling, ”You want a paternity report of Uncle An and you? But this kind of report cannot be forged, forgery is an offense.”
An Xing quickly said, “I know, of course I can’t let Brother Shen help me do something illegal!”
Saying this, he dug in his pocket and took out a small bag that was sealed and labeled, and smiled curtly at the man.
“Dad’s hair! I plucked it!”
Lu Tian Shen: ……
The man’s expression was all over the place, thinking in his mind that this little twerp really was capable of anything, while the teenager carefully placed the bag to the side, still muttering as he was returning.
“Luckily I pulled a lot the other day, I’ll pull some of mine later.”
Sitting back down at the table and meeting the man’s somewhat helpless gaze, An Xing smiled sheepishly.
“Then Brother Shen you help me to get a paternity report! You let the organization keep it a secret ah, it’s weirdly embarrassing to let people know.”
Lu Tian Shen naturally understood that this child’s temper did something stupid, it was embarrassing to tell, and although he was speechless, he also agreed in a good-natured manner.
With the man being so good at it, An Xing felt even more guilty.
Letting Lu Tian Shen to help do the paternity test is equivalent to involving people in it, after all, Lu Tian Shen’s behavior in the eyes of outsiders, represents Lu’s position. But there was no way around it, this was the most confidential test An Xing could find.
What’s more, at least Brother Shen and he had a marriage contract – albeit a verbal one – and were considered half of his family. The fact that his own family knew some secrets could only be described as an early spoiler!
An Xing, who had a weak heart, gave the man ribs: ”Thank you, Brother Shen! You’re the best, Brother Shen! You’re great!”
Lu Tian Shen’s gaze was sharp: “Why don’t you give me shrimp?”
An Xing buried his head and ate diligently.
The man shook his head in amusement and did not say another word, as an answer to An Xing’s request for help. Even though An Xing was confident that Lu Tian Shen would help him, when he was really indulged like this, each of the ten people had to float.
Such a good Brother Shen will be Ning Rong’s best friend from now on.
An Xing mentally grunted and decided to try to eat more of his Shen brother a few times while he was still the youngest master of the An family.
After the two ate and played video games together, and rubbed the cat and chased two episodes of the drama, An Xing carefully plucked a few of his own little curly hairs – he originally wanted to let Lu Tian Shen pluck them, but the result was that the man’s serious face did not change for half a day, so An Xing could only pluck them by himself, and then painfully stroked his little curly hairs. Oh, when Lu Tian Shen stroked his curly hair, he was quick in his movements.
By the time he returned to An’s house, it was exactly dinner time.
When he stepped through the villa’s front door, An Xing was still pondering why his day seemed to start and end with eating when he heard Shen Ying’s voice.
“Xingxing is back? Did you have fun with Tian Shen?”
An Xing looked up and saw the woman smiling gently at him, and happily pursed his ears.
No matter when he came home, Shen Ying’s first question when she saw him was: did Xingxing have a good time today?
Whether having a good time or not, when he heard this voice of care, An Xing would be super happy.
He changed his shoes and went in, only to see that in addition to An Zhaoming and Shen Ying, there were three more people in the living room, namely his second uncle An Zhaoyuan, his second aunt Tan Xiu, and An Hao.
An Xing’s face remained unchanged as he first pampered his mother before turning to the others to greet them.
“Second uncle and second aunt, and …… cousin.”
An Hao’s skin had always been thick enough, and although both of them had exchanged blows several times in the company, at this time, he could still greet An Xing as if nothing had happened.
Second uncle An, not to mention who was hanging on to an idle position in An Ning Jewelry and smiles at everyone he met, at this moment, he also had a kind look on his face. But An Xing remembers that in his last life, Second Uncle An also had such a kind smile on his face, advising An Zhaoming not to treat Ning Rong poorly for the sake of his unknown origins, and then turning around and telling him to be sensible and not to covet the An family’s property.
As for Tan Xiu …… An Xing’s gaze shifted to the beautiful and dignified woman sitting in the sofa.
“An Xing just came back from that child of the Lu family?”
Tan Xiu looked An Xing up and down and said in a casual manner.
“You two are pretty close, you spend half a day together on weekends.”
“The two kids grew up playing together, Xingxing’s cat is still being kept at Tian Shen’s place.” Shen Ying smiled and waved towards An Xing, “It’s a pity that I’m allergic to cat hair, causing our Xing Xing to not be able to raise Hua Hua, isn’t it?”
For Lu Tian Shen who could blow out a bunch of rainbow farts, for Shen Qing, An Xing would only be more vocal and pour out extremely real feelings.
“Aiya how can you blame mom, it’s Hua Hua who is not lucky enough to be raised by mom with me! I went to see it today, and Hua Hua super likes the little cloth mouse that mommy sewed for her!”
She chewed her head off.
Shen Ying was amused and laughed out loud, rubbing her son’s little curly hair. An Zhaoming also said on the side:
“Tian Shen is usually very busy, on weekends he still has to play cat with you, today he cooked for you again didn’t he?”
An Xing shrunk his head feebly. Blame him for going out and forgetting to take the little dessert he made.
This family, the father indulged the mother in pampering, and their son was carefree and pampered by the two of them. Tan Xiu watched this harmonious scene, and her extremely well-maintained nails slowly sank into her palms, but her face was still smiling gently, revealing nothing.
Glancing at Tan Xiu with his remaining light, An Xing grunted in his heart. This second aunt of his, always looks like a proud and dignified noblewoman, in fact, inwardly she can be bitter, because she thinks that An Hao is better at studying than he is, so when facing him, she always inadvertently shows a kind of superiority, and looks at him with a deep-seated dislike in her eyes.
Before An Xing was lazy, after all, this is not his mother, but now An Xing holds a grudge.
In his previous life, it was Tan Xiu who pretended to be careless, but deliberately and carefully told all the suffering Ning Rong had endured during this period of time, stimulating Shen Ying to pass out on the spot.
An Xing’s eyes rolled, and he tilted his head in a pretense of innocence.
“I originally thought I was going to go out to eat, but it turned out that when I arrived at Brother Shen’s house, he had taken the initiative to make the meal, so I should definitely eat it ah, can’t waste food.”
The teenager looked at Tan Xiu, showing a kid’s show-off type of smile.
“The two of us are close because we have a good relationship, so what’s wrong with him cooking a meal for me, right Second Aunt?”
Tan Xiu smiled and nodded her head as if she agreed.
“You’re right.”
An Hao sat on the sidelines, and was discontented in his heart.
The Lu family was already very prestigious in the upper class circle of Tang City, and Lu Tian Shen, the heir of the Lu family, was even more extremely capable in person. The heirs are good friends with each other, so that the next generation of their respective families can also help each other, and their respective family businesses can go further. However, the person who befriended Lu Tian Shen was an idiot like An Xing, does he know how to deal with other family heirs?
He is the one who is close to Lu Tian Shen’s age and has known him since he was a child, but that person obviously has a noble status and does not have any kind of playmates whom he would like to have in Tang City, but only has eyes for An Xing and would rather play with him in the mud, which is simply unbelievable.
An Hao opened his mouth to mock a sentence or two, but he saw his mother suddenly glance sideways at him, and instantly his heart flinched, so he shut up and didn’t speak.
Tan Xiu smiled and looked at Shen Ying.
“Big brother and sister-in-law have taught An Xing to excel. To be able to befriend the heir of the Lu family, this will also be beneficial in the future.”
An Xing: ……
An Xing was convinced, this family can’t talk properly anymore. He and Brother Shen were on good terms because of their friendship, how could he let the second aunt say this as if he was carrying a utilitarian agenda.
If it was once upon a time, An Xing would have put up with it, after all, family and everything is perfect. But nowadays, this family is not his family anyway.
“It’s all fate la, after all, Brother Shen is also very picky about his friends, and not everyone can be his friend.”
An Hao: ……
“When I was friends with Brother Shen, I didn’t expect him to be so successful today. But this is also good, I’ll be able to lie down in the future!”
Tan Xiu: ……
An Zhaoming almost couldn’t hold back his laughter and coughed lightly with a stern face.
“It’s only that Tian Shen boy who can tolerate you being so petulant and is still willing to indulge you. You also need to work harder, you can’t rely on Tian Shen to help you with everything in the future. Now that you’ve gone to the company’s design department, you need to put away your little temper and learn well from your seniors, got it?”
An Xing glanced at An Hao and Second Aunt whose eyes sank, revealing an exasperated look and raised her paw in complaint.
“Speaking of the company, dad you know, I heard someone say the other day that I’m not your son!”
“……”
An Zhaoming instantly strained his face.
“What?!”
