The Prince's Beloved Little Wife

After finishing lunch together, Chen Mengyao and Ouyang Han sat in the living room to rest for a while. Sunlight streamed into the room through the glass windows, making it warm and inviting, almost drowsy. Chen Mengyao took a sip of tea, turned to look at Ouyang Han, and said in a relaxed yet serious tone, "You haven't taken them out to practice driving these past few days. Those guys in the villa who just passed their driving tests really need to familiarize themselves with the roads more."

Ouyang Han nodded, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Understood, I'll go arrange it right away. The weather's nice today, perfect for a drive."

"Okay." Chen Mengyao smiled with satisfaction. "Then you can go ahead. I still have some things to take care of here."

Having said that, she rose and walked towards the hall, her steps light yet firm. The hall was clean and bright, filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. She took out a plate of fruit and some delicate pastries from her spatial storage, gently placed them on the coffee table, and then instructed the servants to boil water for tea. After everything was prepared, she took out her phone and dialed her second brother, Chen Feiyang.

"Hey, Second Brother, are you free right now?" Her voice was clear and melodious. "I have something I'd like to talk to you about, and I'd also like to assign you a task."

A hearty laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Of course I'm free. Just tell me where I'll wait for you."

"Let's just stay in the living room. I've already had the servants prepare tea and snacks. Please bring the performers down here, and we can chat over tea."

"Okay, I'll be right there." Chen Feiyang hung up the phone and immediately got to work.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Han had already taken several new drivers out. As he drove, he patiently instructed them on paying attention to road conditions, controlling the steering wheel, and adjusting speed in different road sections, while also teaching them how to find their way. The atmosphere inside the car was relaxed and pleasant, with bursts of laughter erupting from time to time.

Back in the villa's living room, Chen Mengyao sat on the sofa, flipping through some documents, waiting for Chen Feiyang's arrival. Not long after, the phone rang; it was Zhao Youze calling.

"Mengyao, hello there." Zhao Youze's voice was as gentle as ever.

"Youze, how have you been lately?" Chen Mengyao replied with a smile.

"Not bad, just incredibly busy." Zhao Youze paused, then continued, "Regarding the outdoor performance you suggested last time, I've already started making arrangements. The time is set for next Saturday, and the location is xxx community square."

"Oh, that's great." Chen Mengyao smiled with satisfaction. "Thank you for your hard work. I remember you said the children rehearsed well before, so make sure they give it their best this time."

"Don't worry, I've already got them rehearsing." Zhao Youze said firmly. "I'm also arranging the costumes and shoes, and I've contacted a few professional makeup artists."

"For stage setup, let's go with the same team as last time. Their service is very thorough and efficient," Chen Mengyao added.

"Okay, I'll contact them." Zhao Youze nodded in agreement. "If we don't have enough mentors, do you have any suitable candidates you can recommend?"

“Yes, I have a new group of people here, all of them are professionals, and we can have them go over to assist.” Chen Mengyao thought for a moment, “But you should check the current situation first, and let me know if it is really necessary.”

"I understand," Zhao Youze said with a smile. "Actually, I was planning to tell you earlier, but I was busy with preparations and forgot."

"It's okay, as long as it's confirmed." Chen Mengyao said gently. "By the way, I'll go check on the children's rehearsals in a few days. I've been busy with the opening events of several shops lately, so I haven't been able to spare much time."

"I understand," Zhao Youze said with a smile. "We'll let you know the specific time and process once we've made the arrangements on our end."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Chen Mengyao said and hung up the phone.

At this moment, Chen Feiyang led a group of actors into the living room. Seeing the fruit and pastries on the coffee table, everyone sat down and waited quietly for Chen Mengyao to speak.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a while." Chen Mengyao smiled slightly and glanced at everyone. "I just confirmed with Zhao Youze, the director of the welfare home, about the children's outdoor performance. The time and place have been set. It will be next Saturday at xxx community square."

Upon hearing the word "performance," everyone perked up, their eyes revealing anticipation and curiosity.

"The stage setup and makeup will be handled by a professional team," Chen Mengyao continued. "If you're interested, you can also participate and help guide the children."

“Wow, that sounds interesting!” a young actress couldn’t help but interject. “Can we rehearse with the kids? I love teaching children.”

“Of course!” Chen Mengyao nodded with a smile. “If Dean Zhao has any needs in this regard, we will definitely give our full support. However, you can also go there in person to see how their rehearsals are going. This way, you can not only understand their progress, but also give them some guidance when appropriate and help them correct any mistakes they are making.”

She paused briefly, then continued, "Moreover, I think this event is more than just an ordinary performance; it's a very meaningful charitable experience! Through this event, we can showcase the children at the welfare home to more people, allowing everyone to better understand their lives and needs, thereby raising awareness and concern for the welfare home. I hope to take this opportunity to promote the welfare home and let more people know that the children here need everyone's help and care."

Chen Mengyao's eyes were full of anticipation as she continued, "I also hope to find some suitable charitable enterprises to establish long-term partnerships with the welfare home. This way, the welfare home can regularly participate in commercial performances, bringing in a stable income. This is very important for the children at the welfare home! So, I hope everyone can actively participate in this event and contribute their own strength to the children at the welfare home!"

"No problem, I'll definitely do my best!" another actor assured, patting his chest.

"Thank you all for your support," Chen Mengyao said with a smile. "We'll arrange the details gradually, and then we'll let you know the specific assignments." Everyone indicated that they had no problem with that.

Chen Meng turned around, her gaze falling on Chen Feiyang, and said earnestly, "Second Brother, I hope that this performance by the children at the welfare home can have a clear theme that truly reflects the significance of our charity event. Therefore, I would like to ask you to serve as the general director to coordinate the entire planning process."

She paused, then continued, "The theme should highlight children's growth, hope, and the power of art, so that the audience can appreciate the value of public welfare while enjoying the performance. In addition, you need to oversee the publicity, including details such as inviting guests and media reporters, since you have much more experience in these areas than I do."

Chen Feiyang smiled upon hearing this, patted his chest readily, and said, "What's so difficult about that? Just leave it to me! Tomorrow I'll take the performers directly to the orphanage to check on the situation and let them stay there. That way, they can have more contact and communication with the children, and it will be more convenient for rehearsals."

He glanced around at the people present and added, "Anyway, these people will all be under your management afterward. They can move in once the art museum officially opens. Going there in advance to get used to the environment will also allow you to spend more time guiding the children, killing two birds with one stone."

Chen Meng nodded, her eyes filled with gratitude. "That's wonderful, that's exactly what I was thinking. But I still need to ask for everyone's opinion. Would you like to move in?" As soon as she finished speaking, the artists present all nodded in agreement.

“No problem!” a young actress responded first. “I think this is a great idea. It would be very meaningful to spend a few days with the children.”

“I’d like to too,” another actor chimed in. “Plus, I can contribute to charity, which is much more interesting than playing video games at home.”

Seeing everyone's positive response, Chen Meng smiled and said, "Alright, go back and pack your things tonight, and I'll personally take you there tomorrow morning. After you're settled in the welfare home, I'll notify my private drivers to show you around the city so it'll be easier for you to get around in the future."

She looked out the window, her tone softening slightly, "Once the art museum officially opens, you will be among the first artists to move in. Going to the welfare home to experience life there now is also a way to prepare for the future."

A burst of relaxed laughter filled the living room, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere, as if the prelude to a heartwarming journey had quietly begun.

At the same time, Ouyang Han was driving a luxury van slowly into the villa area, with several novice drivers who had just finished all their driving tests in the passenger seat and the back seat.

"What a fruitful day!" said an excited girl sitting in the back row. "I've basically mastered the traffic rules for the area, and my instructor told us we can get our driver's licenses tomorrow!"

“Yeah, yeah!” a boy next to him chimed in. “Young Master, could you drive us to get our driver’s licenses tomorrow? Then we can take turns driving and try it out on the road. We all want to practice as soon as possible!”

Ouyang Han chuckled and said as he parked the car, "Sure, no problem. But you have to remember, getting a driver's license doesn't mean you can drive fast. Safety first. Once your skills are more stable, I'll take you on a few trips around the city. Take it slow, don't rush."

"Understood, understood!" everyone responded in unison, their faces beaming with youthful enthusiasm and anticipation.

The car was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation. Sunlight streamed through the windows, illuminating everyone's faces and seemingly casting a golden glow over the journey that was about to begin.
