It was Xiaxia's first time on an airplane, and she happened to have a window seat. She found the white clouds floating outside incredibly fascinating.
Later, when he got tired and lay down to rest, a flight attendant came over and politely asked if he needed a blanket. Chu Qing shook his head and politely declined, then draped his coat over Xia Xia.
He doesn't really like using these things in public places; there's always a strange sense of rejection and resistance towards them.
If you're like this yourself, you'll naturally treat your children the same way.
Chu Qing was the first to arrive at the filming location. The other guests were all big names who usually had many engagements to attend, and most of them arrived the day before the official start of recording.
This is a large villa with a spacious backyard. The guest rooms are arranged on the third and fourth floors.
Xia Xia was still asleep when they arrived at their destination. Chu Qing carried him, and the luggage was brought to his room with the help of the production crew.
Chu Qing helped Xia Xia take off his coat and shoes, laid him on the bed and covered him with a blanket, and then briefly looked around at the surroundings.
The villa is located in a slightly remote area, but the environment is very nice, especially the blooming cosmos flowers in the backyard, which look vibrant as they sway in the wind.
Even if it's not for filming a TV show, it would be a great deal to come here for a simple vacation.
The production team arranged for chefs, but after the official start of filming, these chefs did not help most of the time. Chu Qing didn't even have to cook; she just played with Xia Xia every day.
This parent-child program involves celebrities in the entertainment industry bringing a child to participate and recording the entire process of their interactions with the child.
Most of the time, taking care of children is a chaotic and hectic process. Audiences are very happy to see celebrities, who are usually seen as unattainable beauties, sweating profusely while taking care of children, or making a fool of themselves.
The requirement is that it be a child, which can be a biological child or a relative's child.
A typical group consists of one child and two adults. One person does not bring their own child but instead raises the child brought by their partner.
Chu Qing and Xia Xia watched some previous variety shows together these past few days. The director of this live variety show had a firm grasp on the audience's psychology and presented what they liked to watch to the audience.
Furthermore, since it's a live broadcast, there's no possibility of any editing, making the sense of authenticity especially rare in the entertainment industry where everything seems fake.
These kinds of variety shows have both high risks and high rewards, so celebrities with high popularity are usually quite cautious about participating.
If something really happens, there's no way to salvage it through post-production editing.
Xiaxia was holding a huge apple in his hands, which he had asked the chef for when he went downstairs today.
The chef, seeing how cute he was, gave him the biggest one and even kindly asked if he wanted it cut into smaller pieces.
Xiaxia refused the uncle's suggestion so that she wouldn't be bored while watching the show with her father.
After watching the one-hour replay, even the hand holding the apple was a little sore, but he still only ate half of it.
At times like these, he especially misses his other father who passed away at a young age.
The apple had a lot of his saliva on it, and he couldn't bear to give it to his father, but he could give it to his father, who would definitely not mind. Even if his father did mind, it wouldn't work.
The guests who came to participate in this recording arrived one after another, except for Wei Yutang, whose recording was in the afternoon, who arrived close to lunchtime.
Xiaxia was always very enthusiastic when she saw the guests arrive, and she looked at them with great eagerness.
Most people are very tolerant of children, especially a child like Xiaxia who is pretty and well-behaved except for being overly enthusiastic.
One of the actresses brought her sister's son with her. The boy was a bit naughty, and Xiaxia comforted him when she got a headache from all the noise.
Because of this incident, it seems that they have developed a very deep friendship.
If it weren't for Xiaxia's reluctance to part with her father, that actress Su would have even wanted to take him back to stay with her.
One of the guests, Song Meng, is a big fan of Wei Yutang.
I heard that he was also going to participate in this variety show, so he squeezed out another artist from the same company to participate in this program.
But until the night before the recording was scheduled to begin, he didn't see Wei Yutang come over; he had a sour expression on his face.
On several occasions, in front of the production crew, he began asking his assistant how much he would have to pay in breach of contract fees if he didn't want to continue filming.
The director said that filming would begin after the afternoon nap, around 2:30 p.m.
I also made a special mention of Wei Yutang, because he hasn't finished his work yet and should be able to get over before the recording.
Song Meng originally wanted to be in a group with Wei Yutang, but unfortunately the production team said that it was all pre-arranged.
If there was even the slightest possibility, the production team would not want Chu Qing, who was previously completely unknown in the industry, to come and become one of their guests, as it would simply lower the overall standard of their program.
But Wei Yingdi's attitude was very firm; he was practically saying that he only came to participate because of Chu Qing.
The director, who knew the inside story, didn't dare to say much because of Wei Yingdi's background, but he had been secretly watching Chu Qing these past few days. He was really curious about what it was about Chu Qing that attracted Wei Yingdi.
Putting aside his popularity and fame, Chu Qing is truly beautiful, so beautiful that she doesn't pale in comp
