Being pushed around for no reason made even the good-tempered Long Xiaoxiao a little angry. She slowly got up from the ground and glared at the little boy in front of her.

The little boy was still crying, but his parents didn't notice his emotions and continued arguing with the director. The little boy looked up and saw that Long Xiaoxiao was still glaring at him, so he glared back.

Long Xiaoxiao said in her broken Mandarin in a childish voice, "You, you're not good!"

Even so, Long Xiaoxiao still didn't call him bad.

The fact that it was completely harmless had no effect whatsoever; in fact, the little boy inexplicably stopped crying.

He lost to someone who couldn't even speak clearly?

Just as the little boy was questioning the meaning of life, the director had already lost interest in arguing with him and simply turned to Long Xiaoxiao and waved: "Hey little girl, where are your parents?"

Long Xiaoxiao looked around, then turned to the director and suspiciously pointed to herself.

"Yes, it's you." The director nodded. He was very kind to Long Xiaoxiao. After all, a child star with such a superior temperament and appearance is bound to make a name for herself in the future. It wouldn't hurt to speak to her nicely now.

Long Xiaoxiao scratched her head, and finally walked towards the director.

The system was frantic, frantically searching through the system shop for all sorts of items. Seeing that Long Xiaoxiao was about to be launched into the entertainment industry, the system was on the verge of tears.

The parent in the second spot was so angry that the director was ignoring them that they were about to explode. They simply took out their phone and started filming Long Xiaoxiao and the director, yelling, "Director Song Xing is giving people preferential treatment! Today I'm going to expose you!"

Long Xiaoxiao rarely saw someone whose emotions exploded so easily. For a moment, she was at a loss. She stood there and unconsciously twisted her hands together, her big eyes looking at the other person pitifully.

The parent paused slightly, but quickly resumed their hot-tempered state.

Director Song Xing was a little helpless. He turned around and called the security guard in, then turned to the parent and explained in a kind voice, "Your child is indeed not suitable for this play. How about this, next time there is a suitable script for your child, I will let you know in advance."

Song Xing knew that there was no point in dragging it out. He had only taken some time to come and choose a candidate today, which was why he had hurriedly decided on Long Xiaoxiao and wanted to leave. Now that the parents were complaining, Song Xing had no choice but to appease them first.

After all, making a big fuss wouldn't be good for him either.

Long Xiaoxiao looked around at the two people in front of her, puzzled.

The other parents nearby were also somewhat indignant, but they knew that even if their children auditioned, they probably wouldn't pass. Now, hearing what Song Xing said, they rolled their eyes and agreed.

Parent number two was furious and helpless when they saw their own people switch sides so quickly, and in the end they were all asked to leave by security.

After everyone left, Song Xing was finally able to squat down and talk to Long Xiaoxiao.

"Little girl, where are your parents?" Song Xing asked gently.

Long Xiaoxiao's hands were still clenched together. She looked up at Song Xing, her long eyelashes curling upwards: "They..."

Before she could finish speaking, the system's voice suddenly rang in Long Xiaoxiao's ears, its tone urgent: "At Huangge Mountain!"

Long Xiaoxiao was stunned and didn't say anything.

Just as Song Xing squatted down to talk to Long Xiaoxiao, the system finally found a useful tool: a pill that could temporarily reduce the host's energy, the duration of which depended on the host's physical condition.

Normally, the system would never pay attention to such a highly uncertain item, but due to the urgency of the situation, the system had no choice but to buy it temporarily for later use.

At the same time, the system scanned the nearest mountain, Huangge Mountain, which is about ten kilometers away. Although there are residents, there are very few. If Long Xiaoxiao were to transform into a dragon there, she would not be discovered.

Song Xing saw that Long Xiaoxiao had stopped halfway through her story and asked again, somewhat puzzled, "Where are your parents?"

Long Xiaoxiao said in a systematic tone, "Huangge Mountain."

Huangge Mountain?

Song Xing was taken aback. It was in the suburbs, quite far from the audition location.

Moreover, Long Xiaoxiao doesn't look like a child who is living a miserable life. At most, she just looks a little dirty. Why would she live in Huangge Mountain?

After thinking for a moment, Song Xing didn't pry too much into Long Xiaoxiao's family situation. He simply asked, "Are they still at home? Did you come alone?"

Long Xiaoxiao nodded obediently.

Song Xing frowned immediately. He thought he was already very strict with children, but he never expected that there would be parents who were even more irresponsible than him, letting such a young child come here alone from Huangge Mountain.

After silently condemning himself for a moment, Song Xing remained silent.

"Xiaoxiao, quickly ask him if he can take you home to find your mom and dad," the system commanded.

Long Xiaoxiao chimed in, "Uncle, can you take me home?"

As she spoke, Long Xiaoxiao blinked twice and looked at Song Xing pitifully.

Song Xing raised his eyes to look at Long Xiaoxiao and immediately saw the longing look in Long Xiaoxiao's eyes. He paused, and his heart softened instantly.

What a pitiful child.

Song Xing coughed lightly twice, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "Okay."

In the past, he would have had his assistant take Long Xiaoxiao back and contact her parents at the same time. But today, Song Xing suddenly wanted to drive Long Xiaoxiao back himself.

It won't cause too much trouble, right?

Thinking of the film crew still shooting at this moment, Song Xing touched his nose guiltily.

Upon hearing Song Xing's reply, Long Xiaoxiao immediately beamed with joy, her rosy cheeks making her even more adorable: "Yay, thank you, Uncle!"

Long Xiaoxiao's accent was still a bit strange, but combined with her soft and cute appearance, it made her seem even more pitiful and adorable.

The system breathed a sigh of relief when Song Xing agreed. It had been on tenterhooks the whole time, but now it was finally able to relax a little.

Song Xing stood up and reached out his hand to Long Xiaoxiao.

Long Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment. She thought for a moment, looked down at her own paws, then looked up at Song Xing's paws, and tentatively put her hand on them.

Her soft little hand seemed like it might melt at any moment, so Song Xing didn't dare to hold it too tightly. He gently took Long Xiaoxiao's hand in his and said softly, "Let's go, I'll take you home."

After saying that, Song Xing led Long Xiaoxiao toward the parking lot of the film and television base. When they stopped next to a black car with sleek lines, Long Xiaoxiao keenly heard a crisp click.

Long Xiaoxiao looked up curiously, but didn't see anything. When she looked up again, she realized that she had been picked up and placed in the passenger seat.

"Huh?" Long Xiaoxiao exclaimed in surprise.
