Why are you trying to steal her destiny? She's the little ancestor of the Xuanmen sect!

Chapter 206 I Can Still Grow Taller

Saturday morning.

Little Jiu Jiu had just opened her eyes when she saw Coal Ball squatting in front of her: 【You've got a lucky day today!】

"really?"

Xiao Jiujiu took out a copper coin and tossed it into the air.

The copper coin landed on the carpet. Little Jiu Jiu bent over and looked at it, her eyes lighting up: "It really is a fortuitous encounter, and it seems to have something to do with me."

In short, going out today is not a bad thing.

Xiao Jiu Jiu changed her clothes and went downstairs to have breakfast.

Shortly after, the doorbell rang outside the villa.

"So early? It's only a little past seven o'clock. Who's here?" Xiao Jiu Jiu looked at the housekeeper in confusion.

The housekeeper nodded to her and pressed the call button.

Xiao Jiu Jiu could only vaguely hear a man's voice coming from the other end of the receiver.

After learning about the situation, the butler at the door said to Xiao Jiu Jiu, "Miss Jiu, someone from outside wants to see you."

"Huh? See me? Who is it?"

Xiao Jiu Jiu tilted her head in confusion and waved her hand: "Then let him in."

"Yes!"

Not long after, a man in a black suit walked in, carrying a beautifully crafted wooden box.

As soon as he entered, his gaze locked onto Xiao Jiu Jiu, his eyes sharp: "Excuse me, are you Miss Liu Juan Bai?"

"it's me."

Xiao Jiu Jiu peeked at him, puzzled, and asked, "Who are you? What do you want with me?"

"Who I am is not important, I'm just here to deliver something to you."

Just as the man was about to reach Xiao Jiujiu, the butler immediately stepped forward and said, "Leave it to me."

The man looked up, gave the butler a cold glance, and then handed him the box.

The butler nodded to him, then took the intricately patterned wooden box and walked up to Xiao Jiu.

"What is this?" Little Jiu Jiu looked at the box curiously.

The man said coldly, "You'll know once you open it."

"Then open it." Xiao Jiujiu gestured with her chin toward the butler.

The butler opened the box and exclaimed in surprise, "This, this..."

"What the hell?"

Xiao Jiujiu rested her chin on her hand: "It's actually a dagger!"

This is a very beautiful dagger, with various gemstones on its hilt, making it look extremely valuable.

"What are you doing giving these things to my young lady?!" The butler looked at the man warily, and the bodyguards appeared around them.

The man raised his hand innocently and said, "I meant no harm, really."

"Step back!" the butler shouted sternly.

The man took a few steps back before respectfully saying, "Hello, Miss Liu."

This is a gift from a distinguished guest who asked me to give it to you, saying it's a keepsake from your mother.

I was just a delivery person; I had no idea what was inside.

"My mother's belongings?" Xiao Jiu blinked, looking at the man curiously.

If she remembered correctly, her mother was not dead.

But now, all the relics have been unearthed.

The man nodded: "Yes, it's said to be a keepsake, but I don't have the authority to know the specifics."

"That's it."

Xiao Jiu stared at the dagger, her dark eyes darting around: "Do you know this dagger is valuable?"

"This is……"

The man cautiously approached, examined it closely, and exclaimed in astonishment, "This is Topkapi, a priceless treasure."

"Oh, what's that?"

Xiao Jiujiu seemed to be deep in thought.

He didn't understand what Toca was.

The man sighed: "In short, this is a very valuable item."

"Alright, then I'll accept it."

Xiao Jiujiu waved his hand.

The housekeeper was still somewhat worried.

However, seeing that Xiao Jiujiu wanted to accept it, he had no choice but to do so.

He had never heard of his wife leaving behind any belongings.

He had to tell President Qin about this immediately.

"Alright, I've accepted the things. Is there anything else?" Xiao Jiu Jiu stared at the man with her beautiful eyes.

The man coughed lightly: "It's nothing, I'll be going now."

"Ah."

After everyone left, Xiao Jiu Jiu said to the housekeeper, "Just leave your things in my room, I'm leaving soon."

"Yes, Miss Jiu."

After Xiao Jiu Jiu finished eating, she got up, and Mei Qiu jumped onto the table next to her: "I'll go with you."

Glancing at the people around her, Xiao Jiujiu said, "You all go down first, I'll stay here by myself for a while."

"Yes, Miss Jiu."

After everyone left, Xiao Jiu Jiu finally refused Mei Qiu's suggestion: "No, I have to film today, you can't go."

The coal ball stubbornly insisted: "No, I'm going!"

"You can't go!"

Xiao Jiujiu picked up the coal briquette: "You're coming with me? What if we get caught!"

No, I'm going with you today.

Under Mei Qiu's insistence, Xiao Jiu Jiu had no choice but to agree.

She took out a small schoolbag and placed it in front of Coal Ball: "Come in, I'll take you there."

"That's more like it," Coal Ball said, wagging its tail and jumping into the backpack, poking its head out: "Let's go."

As soon as Xiao Jiu Jiu stepped outside, she saw Chang Hong Feng's car parked at the gate.

Just then, my phone rang.

After the call connected, Xiao Jiujiu said, "Sister Hongfeng, please wait a little longer, I'll be right out."

"it is good."

On the bus, Chang Hongfeng glanced to the side and saw Xiao Jiu Jiu rushing over.

She rolled down the car window and said with a light smile, "Miss Jiu, slow down, there's no need to run so fast."

"Whee!"

When Xiao Jiu Jiu ran to the door, Chang Hong Feng had already gotten out of the car and opened the door.

"Thank you, Sister Hongfeng~" Xiao Jiujiu smiled sweetly at her, and her voice was especially cute and pleasant as she thanked her.

Chang Hongfeng was delighted to hear this: "Miss Jiu, sit tight, I'll fasten your seatbelt."

"Okay."

The car arrived at the filming location quickly.

Xiao Jiu Jiu got off the car yawning, still dazed, and was dragged to the dressing room.

Director Song, holding a megaphone, said, "Just a quick makeup session is fine, but the main thing is to use the best costume. Today we're filming the princess's birthday."

"Okay!" the makeup artist replied with a smile, picking up a makeup brush and fussing over Xiao Jiu Jiu's face.

Little Jiu Jiu closed her eyes and remained motionless.

After the makeup was done, the hairstylist started doing Xiao Jiu Jiu's hair.

While working on it, she exclaimed, "Xiao Jiu's hair is so good! She doesn't need a hairpiece at all; she has so much hair!"

"Let me touch it!"

The makeup artist secretly reached out and touched her hair, then said with satisfaction, "Her hair is great for styling, and her skin is amazing."

"It's good to be young!"

As the two were talking, the empress, who was playing the young heroine's mother, entered: "Come quickly and do my makeup."

The makeup artist walked over: "Have you finished filming your scene where you get up?"

"Last night's filming and this morning's shooting are finished. Now it's time to get ready for the little princess's birthday shoot. Is the little princess all done?"

The role of the Empress was played by an unknown actress named Fu Qing.

She is very beautiful, and every smile and frown is proper. I heard that she used to be a theater actor, and now she works part-time as an actress to support her troupe.

The makeup artist smiled and said, "The little princess is getting her hair and makeup done."

"Let me see." Fu Qing walked to Xiao Jiu's side and looked down to see that Xiao Jiu Jiu's eyes were closed.

Fuqing squatted down, her long dress trailing on the ground.

She stretched out her slender index finger and gently poked Xiao Jiu Jiu's cheek: "Even after touching it so many times, I still can't help but sigh, Xiao Jiu's cheek is so tender."

"That is."

The hairstylist finished the last braid and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please wait a little longer, the princess is not done yet."

"It's okay, I'll go change my clothes first."

Fu Qing got up and glanced at Xiao Jiu Jiu again: "She's asleep, so be quiet."

"I know, I'm used to it." The hairdresser's movements were much gentler as he combed the girl's hair, so as not to wake her up.

It was already eight or nine o'clock when her hair was finished. Xiao Jiu Jiu opened her eyes, still sleepy: "My head is so heavy."

Looking in the mirror, Xiao Jiu Jiu realized she had many hair ornaments on her head: "Can you make it simple, sister?"

"That won't work."

Just as the hairstylist refused, Director Song walked in: "Don't do so many headpieces yet."

It's still morning, let's film some other scenes. This look is just for testing.

"I see."

The hairstylist took several off and said, "The little princess said there are too many headdresses and they're too heavy. What do you say, director?"

"Not many, just a few headdresses, I think they're a bit too simple."

Director Song said, taking out the original renderings: "Xiao Jiu, look, I originally planned to make this many for you."

"what?"

Xiao Jiu Jiu's mouth dropped open: "Why all that!"

"I'm still a child, I can still grow taller. Doing all that will stunt my growth!"

"Haha, how could that be!" Director Song said with a smile.

Little Jiu pouted and said unhappily, "It's too heavy!"

"Wear it only for the final, crucial scene. Wear less now, because you'll be climbing a tree later."

Director Song scratched his head as he spoke: "I forgot to ask, Xiao Jiu, can you climb trees?"

"Climb a tree?"

Xiao Jiujiu patted her chest confidently: "Don't worry, I'm good at this!"

"That's good. Uncle will make you a mat in a bit." Director Song left after his inspection.

With him, a lump of coal secretly slipped out of his backpack.

When Xiao Jiu Jiu looked through the mirror, she saw the tail of the coal ball.

"Eh~"

Xiao Jiujiu, who was about to shout "coal ball," paused.

The hairstylist looked at Xiao Jiu in the mirror: "What's wrong, Xiao Jiu? Are you unhappy with your look?"

She removed part of Xiao Jiu Jiu's headdress, leaving only the double-bun style, and also gave her a large gold necklace.

"No, I'm very happy with this look." Xiao Jiu Jiu gave a sweet smile: "Thank you, sister."

"You're welcome. I'll go and style the Empress now." The hairstylist touched Xiao Jiu Jiu's cheek and got up to go next door.

Xiao Jiu Jiu stood up, changed into a lake-blue dress, and twirled in front of the mirror.

Fuqing smiled when she saw it: "It's really beautiful."

"Mother!"

Xiao Jiu Jiu took the opportunity to call out, walking to Fu Qing's side: "Mother, am I pretty?"

To better immerse themselves in their roles, it's generally better for them to refer to themselves by their character names when they enter this area.

"My daughter is absolutely gorgeous," Fuqing said with a smile.

Xiao Jiujiu ran outside, saying, "I'm going to film first."

"Ah."

Today's scene mainly revolves around the mischievous little princess who doesn't want to go to class and runs off to play. She encounters a boy and later sneaks off to the martial arts training ground, where she watches her older brothers spar and decides she wants to join in.

The older brothers initially intended to show mercy, but they discovered that the little guy was exceptionally talented, possessing a golden core from birth. His master took a liking to him and wanted to take him as a disciple.

Xiao Jiu Jiu filmed for a whole morning, and just then, the scene came to the point where everyone discovered that she had a golden elixir inside her body.

"So tired!" Xiao Jiu Jiu lay on the ground, spread out in a starfish shape.

Fuqing, who was next to her, took off her robe and threw it on her: "Don't lie like that, or you'll be seen naked."

"Who's looking at me!" Little Jiu Jiu didn't want to get up and lay down on the grass.

Seeing this, Fu Qing could only say, "So many people have stepped on this grass, I wonder if it has been soiled with feces or anything."

"Ah, I'm not tired anymore." Xiao Jiu Jiu suddenly stood up.

Director Song ran over: "My goodness, look at your dress, it's so dirty!"

"I just had a fight, it's normal for my clothes to be dirty!" Xiao Jiu Jiu retorted.

Director Song nodded helplessly: "That's true, but you're quite good at climbing trees, did you learn it?"

"Want to learn? I've always been able to climb trees!" Little Jiu Jiu blinked and patted the grass clippings off her body.

Director Song glanced at his watch: "It's time to eat. Everyone, take a rest. You've all worked hard."

"it is good!"

The group dispersed.

Several people dressed as Xiao Jiu Jiu's brother gathered around.

Xiao Jiu Jiu's brothers are all very young, the oldest being only a teenager, and they are very handsome.

"Little one, your martial arts were very impressive just now. Where did you learn them?" The eldest brother himself had studied martial arts, and here he was not only playing the role of the eldest prince, but also a young general.

He went out to lead troops into battle at a young age.

Xiao Jiu Jiu's eyes darted around, and she laughed, "I learned it from a reclusive master, he's incredibly skilled!"

"Where did you find your reclusive master? Introduce him to me!" The older brother grinned and moved closer to Xiao Jiu Jiu.

Xiao Jiu Jiu turned around: "No introductions, no introductions!"

After saying that, Xiao Jiu Jiu quickly slipped away.

at noon.

Little Jiu Jiu arrived at the food area, clutching her rumbling stomach, and asked, "What are we having for lunch today?"

"This afternoon..."

Just as Director Song was about to reply to her, someone ran in: "Director Song, a car has arrived outside. They say it's from Shanhaiju."

"Shanhaiju?"

Director Song exclaimed in shock, "How is that possible?!"

Chang Hongfeng walked in from outside: "President Ye prepared a special lunch for everyone today. Director Song, you don't mind, do you?"

"Of course I don't mind!" Director Song rubbed his hands together.

Actually, the crew's boxed lunches weren't bad; they consisted of three dishes and a soup, with two meat dishes, which were good for everyone's stomachs.

Who wouldn't be happy to have Mr. Ye treat them to an extra meal!

The surrounding actors' eyes lit up: "What? There's an extra meal today, and it's from Shan Hai Ju!"

"I've heard that the food at Shan Hai Ju is incredibly delicious!"

"It's so hard to get food at Shan Hai Ju; you have to make a reservation to go!"

"If it weren't for President Ye, we would never have been able to eat this in our entire lives!"

Director Song looked at Xiao Jiu Jiu: "It's all thanks to Xiao Jiu Jiu. We were able to eat such good food thanks to her."

"Director Song, please don't be so polite. I'll have someone clear out a space and set out all the dishes," Chang Hongfeng said, before heading off to give instructions.

Little Jiu Jiu jumped up happily: "Yay, time to eat!"

After dinner, Xiao Jiu Jiu sat listlessly to the side, holding a tablet and playing "Eliminate Stars" with great concentration.

"Wow!!!"

Just then, a commotion arose from the film crew next door.

It's a person crying.

The person was crying so loudly.

It woke up everyone who was taking a lunch break.

"Who is it? Crying and wailing in the middle of the day, mourning at a grave!"

"What are the film crews next door shooting? They're filming in the middle of the day."

"I heard it's a sweet romance drama. The girl next door is the one crying, right? Why is she crying so hard?"

The people who were woken up looked impatient.

Everyone worked hard all morning, and just when they finally got a chance to rest, they were disturbed.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu Jiu dropped her tablet and ran to the film crew next door.

She peeked out from behind the props and immediately spotted a little girl being fawned over.

It turned out to be her...
