Chapter 74
Although the weather outside was cold, everyone inside the house didn't feel the chill at all. In fact, they were so disgusted by the couple that they wanted to go out and brave the cold wind and heavy snow.
Xia Linxia proved with her actions what it meant to be shameless: if I'm not embarrassed, then everyone else is.
She didn't care at all, "Lao Ji, stop what you're doing and come warm yourself by the fire."
Ji Fengxue said, "There's no seat."
"Come here, this seat is always reserved for you," Xia Linxia patted her thigh.
Ji Fengxue held her forehead.
Everyone else: ... ￥…=。=
Qiu Xingzhou cracked his knuckles, "Do you know the consequences of showing affection?"
"I do," Xia Linxia said, "We get married."
...
Qiu Xingzhou had wanted Ji Fengxue to discipline her, but when he turned his head, he saw that Teacher Ji was smiling with indulgence and affection. Truly worthy of being family.
Xia Linxia's shamelessness was likely a result of being spoiled.
Damn, why did he feel a bit envious?
Many single people present couldn't help but feel the same way. In this cold weather, they also wanted a partner to kiss, hug, and lift them high!
After a short rest, everyone was called out by the director and got into the cars to head out for location shooting.
Xia Linxia and Ji Fengxue sat in the last row. Ji Fengxue was closing her eyes to rest. Xia Linxia couldn't help but stare at her sleeping face when she turned her head slightly. Qiu Xingzhou, who was in front, happened to turn back to hand over a hand warmer and saw this scene. He was so sour that he immediately turned his head back.
Xia Linxia tore open the packaging and stuck a few on herself. She hesitated whether to wake Ji Fengxue. A moment later, she took a hand warmer and stuck it on Ji Fengxue's stomach, pressing it gently to ensure it wouldn't fall off.
At this moment, a hand covered hers. Ji Fengxue opened her eyes and looked at her, asking with a slight smile, "Touching me secretly, is this also part of the rehearsal?"
Xia Linxia stared blankly, "No, I'm putting a hand warmer on you."
Ji Fengxue looked down, then released her hand, "Thank you."
"Let me put two on your back," Xia Linxia directly turned her body, reached into her cotton-padded jacket, and stuck them on her inner clothing.
When she looked up, she stared at the back of the other's neck and, on impulse, leaned down to bite it. She pressed down hard with her hand and withdrew it, "There."
"Much warmer," Ji Fengxue smiled, then thanked Qiu Xingzhou in front. This batch of supplies was brought by Duan Yan yesterday. They weren't expensive but were practical.
Outside, snow was falling continuously, but the atmosphere in the car became lively. With laughter and chatter, they arrived at their destination. When the crew chose the location, Chen Lianjie had given up on Hengdian. Firstly, Hengdian had too many crews and too many people. Secondly, the terrain here was very suitable for this film, and it was remote, which was perfect for keeping the actors focused on their work.
There were two long-distance buses, and the filming location was still a ten-minute walk away. The group got off the bus and followed the staff. A gust of cold wind blew, and everyone instinctively pulled their clothes tighter.
Xia Linxia thought it was fortunate that she had listened to Ji Fengxue's advice that morning and hadn't worn a coat with a wide collar, but a long down jacket instead. She walked to Ji Fengxue's side in a few steps. Before she could speak, Ji Fengxue reminded her, "There are gloves inside your clothes, wear them."
Xia Linxia touched her clothes and indeed found them. When she took them out, they had a cute bear pattern. Without thinking, she handed them to Ji Fengxue, "You're so thoughtful, you wear them. Your hands are always cold."
Ji Fengxue smiled, took one, and put it on her right hand. Then, with her left hand free, she took Xia Linxia's hand and put it into her pocket, "This way, it'll be warm."
"You're so smart," Xia Linxia chuckled and called out to Xiang Huaimeng in front, "Come here, help me put on my gloves."
Xiang Huaimeng, the single dog, turned around.
After walking two to three hundred meters, they reached a cave entrance. Inside was a karst cave, a local scenic spot, but due to inconvenient transportation, there weren't many tourists.
At this time of year, there weren't many locals visiting either, so the crew easily booked the spot for a few days.
The group walked forward while admiring the strange and varied rocks. About twenty minutes later, there was suddenly light ahead, and they reached another exit, a hidden paradise.
Xia Linxia walked to the entrance and saw steep cliffs on both sides, like a narrow sky.
The props team had already made arrangements. The weather was cold, and everyone wanted to finish filming their scenes here quickly. Actors had to take off their outer clothes to act. Although the costumes had a layer of thermal underwear, it was still a drop in the bucket for this weather.
Xia Linxia and Qiu Xingzhou ran in place, warming up considerably. Only when sweat broke out on their foreheads did they go to find the director, ready to start.
Lu Ke and Cheng Youwei, by chance, ran into a cave with many mechanisms. Relying on their intelligence and strength, they finally found another exit and continued to run forward without stopping.
After running for an unknown amount of time, they were suddenly attacked from behind. When they woke up, they were in a secret room with only a faint light. The walls were uneven. Lu Ke immediately saw the maid and Lu Wuyi tied to the wall.
They were covered in injuries, with many whip marks on their bodies. The flesh was torn open, and the blood had scabbed over. Their hair was messy, and they were unconscious.
Lu Ke frantically called out to them. The two of them finally woke up and were overjoyed to see her, but as soon as they wanted to speak, they spat out blood.
Cheng Youwei tried to untie them, but he couldn't break the chains.
At this moment, a voice came from behind the wall, "You have intruded into this territory, which means you are destined people. I will allow you to save one person and leave, and the other will stay to be our sacrifice."
Lu Ke's eyes turned fierce, "Who are you? Come out if you dare!"
The person laughed, the sound echoing in the secret room, sinisterly, "You don't have much time. Tell me who you want to save after one incense stick burns."
"No need for an incense stick, I'll tell you now. I want to save both, and I want to kill you."
"Arrogant."
As soon as the words fell, the maid spat out another mouthful of blood. Lu Ke quickly went to treat her.
During this time, she and Cheng Youwei tried every possible method to save them, but all were in vain. She was so angry that her eyes turned red. She picked up her sword and madly hacked at the chains.
Lu Wuyi said weakly, "Lu Ke, don't worry about me anymore."
Lu Wuyi knew her situation. She and Lu Ke had only known each other for a little over a month, so she naturally couldn't compare to the maid and Cheng Youwei.
"I won't abandon you," Lu Ke choked out, "You are all from Wuyi Town, you won't die in this cursed place!"
Lu Wuyi smiled weakly, her eyes devoid of any light. She closed her eyes, drowsy, and murmured, "It's okay, it's just a pity I won't find a good family in this life."
"No, no, look at me," Lu Ke threw down her sword and cupped her face, "Hold on, don't sleep. When we get out, I'll immediately arrange a marriage for you, and I'll prepare your dowry. Don't sleep!"
Lu Wuyi was slightly woken up by her. She wanted to laugh but didn't have the strength. She said faintly, "I'm too dirty, I should go to hell."
"Not dirty, not dirty," Lu Ke patted her face, tears streaming down, "You are the most beautiful person I have ever seen. Hold on, I'll take you back to the human world, okay?"
Lu Wuyi seemed to come back to life. She looked at Lu Ke, a strange light flashing in her eyes, but it was only for a moment. She said "okay" and then fainted again.
The maid also cried, but she was clearly not as badly injured as Lu Wuyi. The best choice at this moment was to take the maid away, saving one person. Lu Ke took a deep breath and said, "We'll save A Yun."
The chains on the maid suddenly unlocked, and a door opened beside them. Cheng Youwei picked her up and walked out. Lu Ke followed without looking back.
Lu Wuyi weakly opened her eyes and saw this scene. She listlessly lowered her head and gave a self-mocking smile. Just then, she heard an angry shout from outside the door, "Lu Ke!"
The situation changed suddenly. Lu Wuyi looked up and saw that as the stone door was closing, Lu Ke pushed Cheng Youwei out from behind and then ran in herself.
"Don't sleep, wait for me. We'll definitely find a way to save you," Lu Ke began searching for clues in the secret room.
Lu Wuyi's eyes flickered for a few moments, and a hint of a smile flashed in them.
Back to the human world?
Lu Ke searched around and suddenly touched a mechanism, opening a wall that led directly to the man who had spoken earlier. She picked up her sword and crossed over.
Subsequently, she entered various illusions. The ultimate goal of these illusions was to guide her to kill. Relying on her strong willpower, she finally emerged from the illusions, but she was exhausted and collapsed on the ground.
In a daze, she felt someone enter behind her. The footsteps were light, and before she could get a clear look, she fainted.
The filming of the scenes here took several days. In addition to the frequent shooting of various action scenes, the actors' expressions and emotions also needed to be perfectly controlled, which required constant refinement and progress.
Of course, there was also the weather. They could only film for a short time before having to stop and let everyone warm up. Otherwise, they would end up like Xia Linxia, who would be saying her lines with righteous indignation and suddenly sneeze, "Achoo!"
Fortunately, this scene was finally completed with everyone's concerted efforts.
However, several staff members also fell ill during this shoot. The director gave the actors and the sick staff a day off to rest properly, while the staff used this time to move equipment and props back.
After returning to the hotel and taking cold medicine, Xia Linxia still couldn't stop sneezing. Feeling that she had lost her image in front of Ji Fengxue, she found an excuse to go play with Le Qingyi.
Le Qingyi had just opened her computer, ready to edit some videos to refresh her mind. Seeing Xia Linxia arrive, she poured her a cup of hot water, "Why did you come to my place? Did Teacher Ji allow you to come?"
"Why wouldn't she allow it? I'm the boss."
Xia Linxia felt her status was challenged. She glanced at Le Qingyi's computer and then at her face. Her eyes rolled, and she suddenly thought of a good idea. She whispered to Le Qingyi, "Post something on Weibo, use your 'Xiangfeng Yixia' account."
Le Qingyi asked blankly, "Post what?"
Xia Linxia whispered a few words, and Le Qingyi's eyes lit up, "Mission guaranteed to be completed!"
Ten minutes later, Xia Linxia, Ji Fengxue, and the CP fans suddenly discovered that their usual meticulous "Xiangfeng Yixia" had posted a new Weibo. They rushed to the scene.
Xiangfeng Yixia v: According to an insider, the Summer CP has been showering everyone with sweetness on set! Xiaxia's gaze is full of adoration, taking meticulous care of Teacher Ji. Xiaxia is so manly and cool, Summer CP is unbreakable and irreversible!
[What? Xia Linxia is the top? I don't believe it]
[Even my own mother fans don't believe that Baby Xiaxia would be the top, picks nose]
[My "Snowflake" fans also don't believe Xiaxia is the top. Our Fairy Ji is beautiful and speaks little, but her aura can completely crush Xiaxia into bed for some fun.]
[As a casual fan, I just want to know who this insider is? Is it reliable? Love entanglements all depend on one's mouth.]
The comment section was filled with opinions. Half a minute later, someone suddenly noticed this Weibo—it had been liked by Xia Linxia again!
[Am I seeing things?]
[Damn, Xia Linxia is here to officially stamp it again, hahaha]
[Xia Linxia, do you live on the big account's Weibo?]
[Holy crap, I have a bold guess. Isn't Xiangfeng Yixia Xia Linxia's alt account?]
[This Snowflake fan tells you, Xiaxia in the house wouldn't create alt accounts like this. She usually uses her main account directly.]
[Hahahaha, so Xia Linxia is here to personally confirm that she's the top?]
[Everyone, don't forget what "protesting too much" means. Those who constantly say they are the top or a '1' are usually a flirtatious '0'.]
[The person above is right, hahaha]
[A strong '1' like me, never showing off, only making my little sister happy in bed.]
[No, can you drive a car on such a steep road?]
[Xia Linxia is a flirtatious '0', confirmed!]
As soon as Xia Linxia finished liking the post, Xiang Huaimeng called her furiously. After a heated conversation, they hung up. Then, she asked Le Qingyi, "How is it? What's the netizens' feedback?"
Le Qingyi reported everything, "One, netizens think Xiangfeng Yixia is your alt account, and you're secretly posting sweet content, but your fans denied it. Two, some suspect you are that insider, deliberately spreading sweetness to netizens. This point was confirmed by netizens."
"Tsk, this batch of netizens is quite excellent," Xia Linxia touched her chin and praised.
Le Qingyi looked at her again and continued, "Three, they say you're a flirtatious '0'. You're indeed quite excellent."
...
Xia Linxia scoffed, "Flirtatious '0'? Where am I flirtatious or a '0'?"
Le Qingyi hooked her lips, smiling without speaking.
Xia Linxia became anxious, "Don't you believe me! I'm just young, but my... is bigger than hers. And just you wait, she'll definitely..." confess to me first!
"Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you," Xia Linxia looked at her with disdain, "The adult world is very complicated."
Le Qingyi chuckled, "Based on my years of CP-shipping experience, the third point is definitely not wrong!"
