Dingding's P.O.V.

Once we were only about three hours away from landing in LAX, my makeup artist began working on my face. Thankfully Kevin slept through most of the flight, but the hours that he was awake, he made sure Ruwei and I made enough attention to him.

I laid down on my seat and closed my eyes as he began putting makeup on my face. After about half an hour, Rose handed me a more formal outfit for me to change into since there's going to be a lot of press.

Once I finished changing, my hairstylist quickly styled my hair up into a formal bun. "Wow, mommy looks so beautiful, doesn't she?" Ruwei asked Kevin as Kevin nodded happily and reached for me. "Sweetheart, when we get off the plane, you have to hold onto me, okay?" He nodded.

Ruwei took Kevin to the back to change and my makeup artist applied a bit of makeup to Ruwei. I took a deep breath when the plane landed. I looked at Ruwei, and he gave me a reassuring smile. He took my hand in his, "Ding, you got this." He said with the warmest and most encouraging smile ever.

I took Kevin's hand into mine as the plane door opened. Our security guards waited for us at the bottom, but at the bottom was an endless sea of paparazzi and screaming fans. Ruwei wrapped his arm around my waist as he guided me down the stairs.

I was careful to not trip in my heels while making sure Kevin wouldn't trip. I honestly thought Kevin would be somewhat scared, but he seems so, so happy to see all this attention directed towards us. We shook a couple of hands when we got on the ground.

"Sa Dingding, it is so nice to have you here in America! You're going to be performing in fifteen states, right? With the first state in California, Los Angeles?" One of the reporters asked as he shoved a microphone in my face, "Yes, I will be starting out this mini-tour in California." I smiled.

I answered a couple more questions before Liam gave me a slight push. Our security guards paved a path for us as we walked out of LAX. Many times, Kevin tried stopping me so he could wave to the people passing by us. Towards the end, Ruwei sighed when I looked like I was going to lose it.

He ended up picking up Kevin and literally have to gridlock him in order to prevent him from squirming out. Once we fought through another round of paparazzi, we finally made it to our hotel.

The moment Ruwei closed the door, I put on my stern and angry face towards Kevin, who immediately lowered his head. I felt Ruwei put his hand on my shoulder, but I shook him off. "Mommy, I'm sorry." Kevin said softly, "Kevin, saying sorry every single time is not going to cut it. I told you multiple times to behave! This is not China, this is America, we don't know this place! We don't know the people here! Getting through the paparazzi is already hard enough in a foreign place, but we had to stop multiple times to stop you from running around LAX!!" I yelled.

This is the first time I've ever yelled at him like this. I never have to yell because he is one of the most well-mannered and behaved boys ever. I feel bad, but I can't just let this go otherwise he's going to think he's the one holding the power.

"Dingding..." Ruwei said gently as I took a deep sigh, "Ruwei, get out." I said angrily with my eyes shut, "Mommy, I'm really, really sorry, I promise it won't happen again. You and daddy wuv each other, please don't kick him out because of something I did." He said, surprisingly both of us.

That's the last thing you'd expect a three-year-old to say! My jaw dropped a little as I continued looking at him. He observed me for a while before running over to me and wrapping his arms around my hips. "Mommy..." He whined as he rolled his head into my stomach.

"Kevin, daddy and I are both very famous celebrities, which means you will have to grow up under the spotlight. Every move you make will be watched. Which is why you need to be well-mannered and behaved. I can forgive you this time, but not without a punishment." I said I thought for a couple of seconds. "No juice or soda, or any drink besides water for the next month," I said, watching as his jaw dropped.
