“She is not a regular kid, so we can't drop her off at any random daycare centers. It's not safe,” added Nan Chen.

“Yeah, I agree. Many daycare centers nowadays are questionable, and I heard rumors about how some carers abuse the children,” replied Ning Ran.

“How about we sign her up for some lessons?” suggested Nan Chen.

“You mean like an extra-curricular activity?”

“Yeah. At first, I was against it because I thought she's too young, and I didn't want to burden her with too many activities. I simply want her to be happy, but if she's bored, we can hire someone to teach her a new skill. That might help kill the boredom and fill up her time,” replied Nan Chen.

Ning Ran thought that idea was great.

“Well, Darling? What would you like to learn?” asked Ning Ran as she turned to Erbao.

“Acting,” replied Erbao. Her response surprised both Ning Ran and Nan Chen.

“Acting?”

“Yeah, I want to be an actress like you, Mommy, and I want to shoot a movie with you,” answered Erbao.

It turned out the kid simply wanted to tag along with Ning Ran and go play at the filming site.

“No, that won't do. You can't be an actress because you have an important destiny to fulfill in the future,” said Nan Chen, trying to nip his daughter's idea in the bud.

“But why? I want to be a movie star and look pretty on TV,” insisted Erbao.

Truth was that her understanding of being an actress was limited and vague. To her, being an actress meant being featured on the screen and having people around her all the time.

Erbao had always been an extrovert who enjoyed a crowd, so she thought that being an actress would be perfect for her.

At that moment, however, she only asked to go to acting lessons because she wanted to follow Ning Ran to the filming site and play there.

“You're still too young to know what you want to be,” stated Nan Chen patiently.

“I may be young, but I'm sensible. I want to be an actress.”
