Chapter 1398 - 1397: Side Story - The Gourmet Festival

As they talked, Shi Wu’s little face finally stopped being tense, and his eyes quietly started to smile.

"Yes, Shi Wu is smart," said little Shi Wu, "Mom is smart too."

"Hehe, what a good son." The mother and son made up in an instant.

"Dad is the smartest." However, hearing Shi Wu add this sentence, Xia Chuyi was once again tempted to "tickle" her son.

But after some thought, she decided to let it go.

This rascal in her house always holds grudges whenever she teases him.

After returning from Abraham’s place, the next day, the food festival officially concluded.

In the final count of votes, unsurprisingly, the Chinese delegation won first place.

After Xia Chuyi and her team won first place, the timing was right, and Scarlett immediately took action. She contacted some familiar media outlets and publicly revealed the fact that Xia Chuyi was the founder of WEI.

At the same time, it was announced that WEI would be officially promoted externally in a franchise model.

At this time, Scarlett suggested to Xia Chuyi to shoot an advertisement for the media.

"Boss, our WEI specializes in Eastern ’Magic’ food, so I wonder if we should find Eastern faces to shoot the advertisement?" Scarlett said to Xia Chuyi.

"Finding Eastern people to shoot?" Xia Chuyi said, a bit surprised, "Will Americans accept that?"

Scarlett smiled and said, "Actually, I have an idea... I’d like Shi Wu to shoot this advertisement."

"Shi Wu to shoot?" Xia Chuyi was even more surprised, "How did you think of having him shoot?"

Scarlett said, "It’s nothing, I just think since WEI is Eastern food, it’s best to have Eastern faces."

"But indeed, many people may have some bias against Eastern faces," Scarlett continued, "but if it’s children, the acceptance should be higher."

"Also, boss, your Shi Wu is very cute; I believe everyone will love him!"

"You know, back then, the child star Shirley Temple was all the rage in the United States!"

"Well..." Xia Chuyi thought for a moment, and said, "I have to ask the kid’s dad."

Besides asking Huo Shiqian, Xia Chuyi also had to ask her own son.

After all, don’t be fooled by Shi Wu’s mere three years of age; he has ideas of his own.

When Xia Chuyi told Huo Shiqian about this, he didn’t say much.

But when she told Shi Wu, little Shi Wu thought for a moment and said, "Is there money for shooting ads?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi found it funny: "Yes, of course, there’s money involved. So, son, do you want to shoot?"

Hearing Xia Chuyi say there was money, Shi Wu seriously nodded and said, "I want to shoot."

Xia Chuyi: ...

Is she raising a little money-grubber?

After Shi Wu finished shooting the advertisement, Xia Chuyi symbolically gave him a bankbook, saying it was his payment.

Shi Wu’s eyes lit up, he took the bankbook, looked at the text he couldn’t understand yet, then suddenly handed it to his mother, saying, "Mom, here, it’s the milk money I earned myself... no, food money, clothing money, and tuition."

"You don’t have to work so hard in the future," little Shi Wu said seriously.

"Huh?" Xia Chuyi was stunned for a moment, remembering the teasing words she had said to her son before.

Her son is indeed very "vindicative."

But she felt very touched!

"Son, mommy loves you!" Xia Chuyi squeezed little Shi Wu into her arms, kissed him several times, and said loudly.
