Gong Yu grasped Yun Muxi's wrist and looked at her nervously. He lifted her up with a princess hug and ran to the faucet in the restroom, washing her hand with cold water. Yun Muxi felt a terrible pain with her tears trickling down her cheeks. Her mind went blank, so she paid no attention to Gong Yu's tension and intimacy.
Gu Yuxuan was also worried. She ran to the tea table and search things in a medicine cabinet. After finding the medicine for scald, she ran into the restroom and passed the ointment and gauze to Gong Yu.
After receiving the ointment, Gong Yu held Yun Muxi to the sofa in the living room and laid her down cautiously. He got down on one knee, holding the red and swollen blistered hand, and gently blew while applying ointment to the hand with great care. He was so gentle as if he was treating a rare treasure. He knitted his eyebrows tightly and his eyes were full of tender affection.
Niannian was panic-stricken when she saw her mummy hurt. She was stupified in front of the table for a long time before she came to her sense. Then, she ran to hold Yun Muxi's arms, "Purr... Mummy, are you hurting? Purr... "
Yun Muxi shed tears in pain but she held up for the little girl's sake. "The pain is gone. Niannian, don't cry. I'm sorry that I was not careful and frightened you."
Gong Yu comforted her softly while applying ointment gently, "Lovely Niannian, don't cry. If you keep on crying, your mummy will feel more pain. Since she got injured, you should take care of your mummy rather than make her anxious, right?"
Niannian stopped crying and nodded. "Hum. I will listen to Daddy Yu's words. I will take care of my mummy and I won't let her worry."
Yun Muxi did not notice that Niannian called "Daddy Yu", but Gu Yuxuan and Tong Nan heard clearly. In amazement, they looked at the three people, who were as harmonious as a family of three, leaving no space for strangers.
With skillful movement, Gong Yu finally bound up her wound. Then, he lifted up his eyes and looked at Yun Muxi. His undisguised tender affection in his eyes raised her heartbeat.
At this moment, his telephone rang, and he answered, "Hello, Seventh Brother."
He asked Seventh Brother to pick him up at the appointed time because he needed to work at night. Seventh Brother had been waiting for a long time but he had not seen Gong Yu. If Seventh Brother didn't call him up, they would be late.
Hanging up the phone, Gong Yu looked at Yun Muxi anxiously and said softly, "I have to work tonight and I need to go right now. If you feel uncomfortable, please go to the hospital. Call me if you need anything." Then he left reluctantly.
He just left and Tong Nan gossiped, "Sister Xiao Xi, you and Gong Yu..."
Even if she was insensitive, Tong Nan could detect the subtleties among them three. Everybody could see that there must be something.
Yun Muxi answered coolly, "I wrote a play and he is the male protagonist. We only met several times. He happened to move here, and we knew each other only a few days."
Tong Nan asked again, "He seems to be interested in you."
Yun Muxi replied drily, "I don't like him. What's more, I'm not going to consider my personal affection."
Her words denied all the relationships and possibilities between Gong Yu and her. Hearing that, Tong Nan was extremely excited.
Tong Nan said delightfully, "Since so, it would be easier! "I fall in love with him at first glance, so I decide to pursue him. I swear that I will catch such a wonderful man! Sister Xiao Xi, you are in a favored position. You must help me create opportunities to pursue Gong Yu."
Gu Yuxuan took a deep look at Yun Muxi and then glanced at Tong Nan. She always thought the relationship between Yun Muxi and Gong Yu was not simple and it must be difficult to tear apart.
The next day.
The crew started shooting officially. Early in the morning, Yun Muxi rushed to the filming site. Today, they were going to film the play was that Zhen Ai, the female protagonist, took part in graduation party.
The details were: Zhen Ai had dressed normally to hide her beautiful appearance. This day, she finally decided to show her real appearance. Thus, Zhen Ai stunned all the people present at the party and stole all the honor from the class beauty Lu Yuxin. To revenge her, Yuxin used the excuse of her being late to make Zhen Ai drink as a forfeit. Nobody expected that Zhen Ai would fall into a drunken stupor after drinking a bottle of wine. This part had no difficulty and mainly showed Zhen Ai's beauty. Thus, the test was about the actor's facial attractiveness rather than acting skill.
For such a simple scene, the Dresser had spent six hours making up on Ding Sisi's face. The Dresser made up and cleaned repeatedly six times, but Zhao Yi was still unsatisfied because he always thought that Ding Sisi was not stunning enough.
He Xin knitted her eyebrows, "Otherwise, let Tina have a try." Tina was the most senior Dresser in the circle. She was the Chief Dresser of Xinghuang International Entertainment Group and employed by the movie queen Fang Qing. In the circle, only a few people were able to invite her.
Director Zhao hesitated and said, "It's not easy to invite Tina."
He Xin thought for a while and said, "Tina owed me a favor. Let me have a try."
For He Xin's sake, Tina finally came to the filming site an hour later. With her superb skill, the Director finally felt satisfied with Ding Sisi's makeup. Due to less technical difficulty, She finished the makeup in less than two hours.
Ding Sisi felt disgusted by makeup for the first time in her life as if she would never want to wear makeups forever.
She felt discontented that it took 10 hours for a simple scene. She was unhappy and thought Zhao Yi deliberately created difficulties for her. However, the agent Sister Yamei specially asked her to restrain herself, so she did not vent her anger.
...
The next day. The scene was: Zhen Ai returned to the modern era through time-travel for the first time.
The film was not shot in order, so the Director would shoot the modern part before the ancient part.
The scene was relatively difficult. Zhen Ai returned to the modern era for the first time, so she could not completely adapt to the time-travel. She had been adapted to ancient life, so she felt panic-stricken, confused, and depressed after her returning. Thus, the actor needed to show this kind of mental feelings. If she was not able to handle this emotion accurately, it would be difficult to achieve the desired effect.
Ding Sisi was always a little self-important, so she did not take the scene seriously. While shooting for the first time, the Director called a "cut" directly because of her empty eyes. Director Zhao reminded her in a low voice, "Ding Sisi, why are your eyes empty? You're not playing a dying man. You should be surprised and maladaptive to the sudden change. You should be a little flurried, panicky, and confused. After leaving Mu Lengyu, you must have so many mixed emotions. Think about it and let's do it again." Then, they began to do it again. Ding Sisi shed tears sadly and her performance was emotional. But the Director called a "cut" once again. Director Zhao reminded her again, "Ding Sisi, you have just known Mu Lengyu, so your relationship is vague. You should not cry so badly." She performed for the third time. Ding Sisi opened her eyes in a panic. The Director called a "cut" once again. Direc
Gong Yu whispered to Zhao Yi, and then Zhao Yi responded with a look of hesitation. And Gong Yu added something. Zhao Yi contemplated for seconds and nodded his head finally. Director Zhao stood up, clapped his hands and called loudly at the crew, "Stop and come here for a moment." Hearing the call, all the crew came up to Director Zhao, forming a circle with Zhao Yi in the center. Sitting dismissively on the edge of the film set, Ding Sisi did not move at all. Instead, she lifted her right hand and examined the manicure she just had yesterday, as if she had heard nothing. With a haughty look, she threw a slanting glimpse at the crowd around Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi raised his eyes to glance over the filming site to check whether all had gathered together. Unexpectedly, he found that Ding Sisi was still in the distance. Anger rose instantly in his heart. He withdrew his glance and coughed lightly. Ding Sisi was totally elated in her heart, and a
When Gong Yu saw Amy holding her hands and thinking something else as looking at the phone, he asked, "What's wrong?" Amy put the phone aside and answered softly, "Ding Sisi is really funny. She dared to order me to deal with it carelessly." Upon hearing it, Gong Yu became sullen and said deeply, "Ignore it. And do you own thing carefully." Amy could not help arching her eyebrows and joking, "What? Handsome guy, why did you stand up for Yun Muxi like that? Do you like our screenwriter?" Yun Muxi was surprised at these words and said in disagreement, "Oh dear, Sister Amy, don't make fun of me. It's not good if others hear that." Gong Yu coughed lightly and pretended to be indifferent. He headed down to a magazine and said in a deep voice, "We don't have enough time. Please get started!" After being reminded, Amy came to herself and got into gear quickly, throwing herself into doing m
Yun Muxi was quite timid and said waveringly, "Director, I'd better not. I have never acted before!" Zhao Yi was still in the excitement and comforted with a laugh, "Xiao Xi, it's okay. Take it easy. You just help Gong Yu to play. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. We haven't replaced the female protagonist with you." In fact, Zhao Yi thought, "If she acts well, I can let her have a try. After all, her image is very good." On second thought, he was a little disappointed. "She is just a screenwriter. How could she perform well? I thought about it too simply." Seeing Yun Muxi still boggling, Gong Yu lowered his head and muttered, "If you want this play abortive, quit it." Hearing the word "abortive", Yun Muxi made up her mind instantly and allowed Gong Yu to lead her to the room where the scene had been set. At the moment, a crowd of people entered the filming site, found Ding S
The black Bentley drove so fast that a sudden brake could not stop it, but continue to charge, almost hitting Yun Muxi... A young soldier beside leaped over a car and dashed toward her like a flash light. He held Yun Muxi in his arms and rolled sideways. That hurtling car squeezed past them and halted two meters in front of them finally. Fortunately, the soldier rescued her in time. But for his agility and fast speed, Yun Muxi had been certainly knocked down by the car. The picture that both of them were flying away like a parabola made people around close their eyes. They heard the sound of suddenly braking, but not the clang of crashing and falling down. So they opened their eyes with curiosity, only to find that the woman who had dashed around madly was in a man's arms, lying two meters diagonally behind the black Bentley. The man was dressed in an army uniform. Because of Yun Muxi, the crossing was in a mess with the serious traffic jam. In the black
Lu Yang said casually," I had nothing to do, so I'm popping by the kitchen to take a look. Your back view looked especially good under the sunlight, so I took some photos. I'm just bored and trying to find something to do." Yun Muxi did not question him anymore. She turned around and continued with what she was doing. Lu Yang returned to the sofa and flipped through the pictures he just took. Although Yun Muxi's face was not shown, her thin and weak figure sparked his urge to protect her. Her peaceful back view gave off a light refreshing feeling that made others want to know her more. He flipped to the last photo. It was the only one that showed her face. She was turning her head naturally and casually, with no tint of deliberateness. Her defined features needed no further enhancements. Although she was not smiling, her beauty was more than enough to behold, especially her big eyes. They were black but bright and were as clear as lake water. They seem
Gong Yu got up quickly and took big strides towards the door. When he opened it, two slightly swollen eyes met his. Anxiously, Yun Muxi was standing in front of him. When she saw Gong Yu, her eyes immediately lit up, as she saw hope. She asked earnestly, "Gong Yu, please help me!" Gong Yu was startled. He quickly asked, "What's wrong?" Yun Muxi was at a lost. With her big eyes, she stared at Gong Yu piteously as tears rolling down. "Niannian has a fever all of a sudden, it's as high as 40 degrees now. I waited for half an hour downstairs and did not see any taxi. I tried to call Xuanxuan but I could not reach her, and Yichen went abroad on business. I really have no choice. Don't you have a car? Can you please drive us to the hospital?" After listening to Yun Muxi's plead, Gong Yu turned around, putting on the coat that he grabbed off the clothes stand. He then swiftly picked up his car key and wallet and closed the door. He
Yun Muxi saw what happened and took the prescription from Gong Yu. Softly, she said, "I'll go instead." After paying and getting the medicine, they returned home. Niannian dozed off after eating the medicine. Both Yun Muxi and Gong Yu remained silent in the car ride as they were too occupied with their own thoughts. There was a fog in the car, and the quietness made them uncomfortable. At 3 am, they finally brought Niannian back to the apartment. Gong Yu laid her gently on the big bed while carefully covering her with a blanket. He sat by the bedside and gently caressed her forehead. His inner struggle made him want to yell out with her head on her crossed arms. He wanted to spoil the cute child in front of him, but he felt unbearable pain because she was like a poison sting in his heart. Two mixed feelings pained him. Yun Muxi came up behind him quietly. "Thanks for what you did tonight! Now that Niannian's temperature has dropped slightly, I can
Lu Yang also saw Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu and also felt a little bit shocked. He stepped forward to greet them. "Xiao Xi, Gong Yu, why are you here?" Murong Yunxi looked at Lu Yang with a smile. Many years had passed by, the past had gone with the wind. Lu Yang was just one of her good friends and they seemed to be more comfortable in this way. "Yeah, we came for a movie, but I didn't like it, so we left before the ending!" Subsequently, Murong Yun turned to a woman behind Lu Yang who looked familiar. "Lu Yang, is this your...?" Lu Yang put on a bitter smile. "Oh, you know that I am in a situation of being forced to get married. This is a girl that my big brother introduced to me for a blind date." Lu Yang had nothing to hide because he had no intention to get married to this woman, so he shared his thoughts directly to avoid any misunderstandings, let alone he had no intention to make her his girlfriend. This woman did not rea
Twelve years later. "Luoluo, come to help me!" Lying face down on her big bed, Murong Niannian complained to her good friend through her mobile phone. She was simply so depressed inside. Yan Chuluo was Murong Niannian's best friend, and their friendship was very solid. Although Yan Chuluo was five years older than Murong Niannian, Murong Niannian, a mature girl, did not have any difficulty communicating with her. Their relationship was even more harmonious than those of her peers. "Well, my dear girl, I'm too busy to attend to you now. I even don't have any leisure for myself," replied Yan Chuluo, who was reading the latest military newspaper on a closestool. Yan Chuluo actually could not attend to her talented friend at the moment because she fell in love with a man. More exactly, she fell in love with him in secret only at one glance. "Well, you just went to receive military training. By the way, your grandfathe
S City— The doorbell was ringing outside. After finding that it was a courier delivering a parcel, Gu Yuxuan answered the door and signed for the delivery. After closing the door, Gu Yuxuan leaned against the door, overwhelmed by sadness. The express delivery belonged to Yun Muxi, which should be her admission letter according to the mailing address. However, Yun Muxi had disappeared for almost a month. Gu Yuxuan stood with her back against the door and slowly slid down on the ground as her tears kept falling down. Gu Yuxuan held the parcel and put one hand on her knees, covering her eyes with the other. Her tears streamed down through her fingers, and she cried silently. In fact, she had cried countless times this month. Father Yun had gone to Africa and kept working after arriving there, so that they were out of touch. Neither could she convey the news of Xiao Xi's disappearance to Father Yun, nor did she know how to tell oth
The bottle was in the shape of a gourd and was smooth and delicate. What was the most special part was the handle of the bottle, which was also made of a little gourd. The two gourds were cleverly connected by a vine. It looked like the bigger gourd was holding the small one while the small one wrapped onto the large one. The lip was the root of the vine, showing a natural and smooth combination. The bottle's shape was delicate and refined. Every detail showed unique ingenuity, subtly revealing a sense of tenderness in its mellow lines. The two gourds were like a mother and daughter. The mother showed her infinite love for her daughter, while the daughter relied on her mother. The two were made of crystal-white porcelain, while the vine was lush green with no extra impurities. Duanmu Gongyu opened the lid and extended his nose to smell it. A rich smell of wine rushed to him with a faint fragrance like a kind of flower. Duanmu Gongyu could not tell what it
Duanmu Gongcheng felt somewhat shameless upon seeing Duanmu Gongyu's shock, and he lowered his head to say, "It's my fault! I am too... I hope you don't blame me." Duanmu Gongyu felt happy to remedy the misunderstanding with his brother and nodded while saying, "I don't blame you, Big Brother. I have arranged for my people to deal with those bad guys. You don't have to be worried." Duanmu Gongcheng could not adapt to this change and still felt embarrassed at the moment. He said, "Third Brother, you've just come back, so I came to check on your injury. Since you're fine, I should not bother you. You're so tired after a long journey. Have a rest and I will come to visit you later." Then, Duanmu Gongcheng asked to leave in a hurry. Nanny Wu suddenly felt embarrassed when only Duanmu Gongyu, Yun Muxi, and she were there. She said in a hurry, "My Lord, you should have a rest and I will go to prepare food for you. You must not have e
After pausing for a moment, Duanmu Gongyu stared fixedly at Hei Ye as if he had something to say. Hei Ye was confused by Duanmu Gongyu's actions and wondered if he had a problem, but he dared not to ask Duanmu Gongyu if the fear that he would enrage Duanmu Gongyu, who had been in anger during the past several days. Looking as if he had made up his mind, Duanmu Gongyu cleared his throat and his face blushed as he said with an unnatural expression, "Hmm... it seems... Xiao Xi... is angry at me..." Duanmu Gongyu stuttered as he did not how to express his thoughts, but the long-lasting cold war between Duanmu Gongyu and Yun Muxi made Hei Ye understand Duanmu Gongyu's meanings at once. Hei Ye said to Duanmu Gongyu in embarrassment, "Your Highness, I didn't have any experience in dealing with girls, so, I don't exactly know how to solve this, but... usually, in such a situation, men should take the initiative to coax women. Don't feel shy to do th
Yun Muxi felt at ease enjoying such a peaceful and beautiful moment. Her parents had been busy with their work and left her alone at home since she was a child, and luckily, she had a good friend, Xuanxuan, accompany her; otherwise, she would have left a lonely life. She was quite satisfied that now Duanmu Gongyu accompanied her, took care of her, and loved her. She enjoyed the peaceful moment quietly. ... At sunset, the carriage arrived in Xinyang City. As soon as they entered the city, Duanmu Gongyu sensed something strange. He said to Hei Ye in a cold tone, "Hei Ye, put on your guards." Since Duanmu Gongyu always had a keen instinct, Hei Ye put on his highest guard at Duanmu Gongyu's reminder. Lan Yun surveyed around warily and looked out for everything that would happen. Hei Ye drove the carriage to a tasteful hotel, which was neither the biggest one nor the most luxurious one in the city. The reason why he chose such an in
Before walking long, Yun Muxi came across Duanmu Gongyu. She cast her anger behind her back and said to him happily, "Look, Gong Yu, I found a puppy. Isn't it cute?" Duanmu Gongyu was allergic to animals, especially furry ones. He measured the puppy with a frown and a look of disdain. As if the puppy had sensed Duanmu Gongyu's hostility against it, it barked at him in a wary way. Duanmu Gongyu furrowed his eyebrows even deeply. A long while passed, and he finally replied, "No, not at all. It is not that friendly to me." Yun Muxi defended the puppy hurriedly by saying, "No, it's just too small and afraid of strangers." In Yun Muxi's arms, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu warily once again. Still in a frown, Duanmu Gongyu said in a cold tone, "It does look unfriendly. It warned me to stay away from it." Right then, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu several times more in a warning way. Yun Muxi stroked
The time needed for an incense stick to burn passed by in the blink of an eye. Lan Yun indeed came over carrying two big handfuls of skewers. Since they were in the wilderness and they had never seen how modern-day skewers looked, although the skewers he made were somewhat close, it was still different from the modern-day ones. The wooden sticks were thick, and the meat cubes were also bigger. The shapes were not cut into long shapes as they do in the modern world. Lan Yun's skewers looked more like tanghulu. But Yun Muxi was still amazed that he could deliver such great results so quickly. "Lan Yun, if I bring you to where I came from, you could earn quite a lot just by making lu chuan! You're basically god-speed." Lan Yun felt awkward after hearing it. He had put in so much effort to equip himself with all these skills just for him to go there and make lu chuan? This Miss Yun had such a wild imagination. Hei Ye was very alert
