The north wind was howling, and there were circles of people outside the tent, and there was even a trend of increasing numbers.
Although the wind was strong, the people inside still heard the noise outside. The first person to come out was a staff member, who immediately waved inside when he saw what was happening, and was extremely excited, calling his friends to join him. It was clear how unprofessional Qin Hanlin was in leading this crew.
Lu Yinbing was almost the last one to come out. She didn't even have time to check her phone. If Xia Yitong had fallen a little later, before Lu Yinbing finished reading the WeChat message, even if she didn't fall into Lu Yinbing's arms, she would have been protected by Lu Yinbing.
This situation is something I never expected.
Qin Hanlin immediately raised his phone, and before anyone else could react, a "click" sounded, leaving behind Xia Yitong's eternal black history in the "Breaking Snow" crew. However, no one else dared to openly take out their phones to take pictures.
Xia Yitong fell in such a terrible position that it took a lot of effort for her to get up. At this moment, an arm supported her arm and pulled her up: "I am very touched by your spirit of sacrificing yourself for the sake of entertaining everyone."
Lu Yinbing's voice sounded calm, which made Xia Yitong feel even more uneasy.
Qin Hanlin covered up his dark history and came forward with a smile: "On behalf of the crew, I welcome you."
Xia Yitong: "…Thank you, Director Qin."
If the smile on his face wasn't so gloating and he handed over her photo, Xia Yitong would still be willing to play with him.
Everyone entered the tent, isolated from the wind and sand outside. Xia Yitong then saw the layout inside. This tent was larger than any previous one. There was a long table, a sand table, and documents that looked like war reports piled on the table. She immediately understood which scenes were being filmed.
Jing Xiu fled the military camp, gathered his old subordinates in the south, and confronted Gu Zang.
The filming of the scene had not been completed yet, so Xia Yitong and Fang Hui were arranged to sit in the same seat with Xiaoxi to watch them filming.
Xia Yitong didn't notice just now that there was a white towel on the long table in front of Lu Yinbing, two feet long and two fingers wide. As the clapperboard was pushed in front of the camera, Lu Yinbing's eyes were covered with the white towel.
It was the scene where she injured her eyes!
Lu Yinbing usually looks good in front of the camera, but not as good as she is now. Usually, I think Lu Yinbing's eyes like deep wells add a lot of color to her. When she covers her eyes, you will know the true meaning of "Autumn water is the god and jade is the bone". Her character when she is tall and straight, her proud attitude, and her expression that is always hard to figure out, all of which are interpreting the transformation of Jing Xiu in the later period, from a king who defends the status quo to a king who fights.
Xia Yitong reached around Fang Wei's back and held her arm. Fang Wei was wondering when she felt a pain in her arm: "…"
Xia Yitong appeared calm on the surface, but the barrage of comments in her heart had already been displayed on Lu Yinbing's face hundreds of times: So handsome, so beautiful, and some indescribable words.
Xiaoxi's eyes moved back and forth between Xia Yitong, Xia Yitong's arm, and Fang Wei, trying to determine if there was something fishy going on between the two. Teacher Xia looked restrained, as if she couldn't help herself, and coupled with the restricted scene just played out outside, Xiaoxi let out a soft "hiss" and suddenly had a bold idea - no way? Could it be that her Bingxia CP was going to shake again, and should she stand for "next time" now? How did this world become so sinister.
Fang Hui gently moved her arm, asking Xia Yitong to grab it from another place, and whispered, "Teacher Xia, is your 'personal injury' not included in the contract?"
Xia Yitong said: "I'll give you a raise this month."
Fang Wei smiled slightly: "Okay, grab whatever you want, and you can bite it if you want."
Xia Yitong glared at her half-angrily and half-angrily. She would not bite her. If she had to bite someone, she would bite Teacher Lu. No, Teacher Lu had delicate skin and tender flesh, and had been exposed to the wind and sun recently. It would be better for her to bite herself.
Xiaoxi's expression became more and more horrified. This was even a romantic joke. Could it be true?!
The place is at a high altitude, with a harsh environment and inconvenient transportation. The lunch boxes were cold when they were delivered, so the crew spent a huge amount of money to hire a special chef and send trucks to transport ingredients regularly. They set up several large pots and cooked the hot rice and soup directly. When the time came, they would take the lunch boxes to pick them up and eat with relish.
Xia Yitong had just arrived not long ago, around four or five o'clock, when the aroma of cabbage stewed with meat wafted outside. That aroma was different from the stuffy smell in the lunch box. It was the aroma of the ingredients themselves, so overwhelming that no matter how thick the tent was, it couldn't resist it.
Xia Yitong didn't eat lunch. She was used to this job and didn't feel very hungry. But when she smelled the fragrance, she couldn't stand it anymore. It was no exaggeration to say that she was starving.
Gurgle-
Xia Yitong pressed her stomach awkwardly and even wanted to curl herself up to cover the sound with clothes so that no sound could be heard.
Gurgle-
Fang Hui was also embarrassed.
The two looked at each other and decided to just not go out so as not to disturb everyone's filming.
But before they could act, their stomachs started growling one after another, and the entire crew was filled with the sound. The one closest to them was Xiaoxi, and Xia Yitong looked at her, unable to hide her surprise.
The two new friends were confused: "… "
Qin Hanlin smiled and clapped his hands: "Okay, I know everyone is hungry, let's do it twice more, cheer up, as long as we pass, we will have food immediately. Tonight's dishes are beef stew with potatoes, cabbage stew with meat soup, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and roasted whole lamb!"
Xia Yitong couldn't help but swallow her saliva, deeply suspecting that this was a trick Qin Hanlin used to improve filming efficiency.
The field staff came over with a plastic bag and distributed a piece of chocolate to each person. Xia Yitong also had one. After eating, her stomach finally stopped growling. But when she thought of the roasted whole lamb, stewed beef with potatoes, and other dishes outside, she felt that the chocolate in her mouth had no taste.
The cast and crew members on the scene obviously had the same idea as her. After eating the chocolate, their energy and spirits were lifted. They performed with great passion and their eyes were shining. They were indeed much better than before.
As the saying goes, people die for money, but when people really fight for food, they will fight even harder than for money.
At 6pm, the crew finished work early for the first time. Qin Hanlin said that in order to welcome Xia Yitong, they would not continue filming tonight and would have a bonfire party. Everyone was in high spirits and went to thank Xia Yitong, which made her feel embarrassed. Those who were close to her complained bitterly, saying that the filming of this month was equivalent to the previous year's. Yu Qingyan's clear and fair face was now made like a rough man. He smiled at her and his teeth were whiter than his face.
When the cameraman came over, Xia Yitong almost didn't recognize him. His hair was two inches long, covering his ears, his face was unkempt, and he looked more like a farmer than a real farmer. Xia Yitong couldn't help laughing. The guy cried and said, "It's all for warmth! I used to be cute and clean. You don't know that we push the camera, not only in the wind and rain, but sometimes we even have to go into the sand..."
Someone patted the shoulder of the cameraman who was busy talking.
The young man didn't even turn his head: "Wait, I'll be there soon."
Xia Yitong looked over his shoulder and behind him, and her smile was replaced by uneasiness.
The young man continued to cry, "My girlfriend wanted to video chat with me the night before yesterday, but I didn't dare to. She even suspected that I had someone else outside. Who else could it be with me in this state?"
Xia Yitong wanted to laugh, but when she looked at the person standing behind the young man, she didn't dare to laugh.
The hand patted his shoulder again, and the boy turned around and said, "Brother Wu, I'll be there in a minute—Ah, Teacher Lu!"
He stood at attention reflexively. Lu Yinbing didn't say anything. The young man ducked and slipped out of the tent curtain, leaving behind only a sentence that was too fast to be prolonged: "I'll talk to you tomorrow."
Lu Yinbing had no expression on his face. He looked down at Xia Yitong, walked out, and whispered, "Follow me."
Xia Yitong said, "Fang Hui, go eat with Xiaoxi first. I'll be there soon." Then she quickly followed. Lu Yinbing took her to his lounge, a small tent.
The two corners of the curtain were firmly pressed down with stones. After Lu Yinbing confirmed that there were no gaps, he walked over quickly.
As Xia Yitong walked over, her brain was working frantically, burning 100 million brain cells. Should she explain the cameraman first and say that she didn't really want to chat with him at all? "In my heart, there is only you, not him?" Or should she explain that she fell outside just now and it was just because she got up too quickly and had low blood sugar? "In my heart, there is still only you, not her?" Or should she give an early warning that the cover of the November half issue of "ELLE" might be a little gay, but it was not her own wish. Please don't be angry. In my heart, there will always be only you, not her."
"Teacher Lu, I—" she spoke hesitantly.
A solid and warm embrace wrapped her tightly, and all words were cut off in an instant.
Lu Yinbing rushed over so fast that Xia Yitong even felt a little pain in her chest, but besides the pain, there seemed to be other feelings. Lu Yinbing put his chin on her shoulder, heavily, causing her shoulder bone to hurt.
Then he tightened his arms, as if he wanted to press her into his arms.
Xia Yitong was stunned, and first gently wrapped his hands around her thin waist, then slowly tightened his grip, returning the same strength. Xia Yitong couldn't see Lu Yinbing's expression, and Lu Yinbing couldn't see hers, making this hug seem like a dream, but the warmth and strength they felt were real.
The longing that had been suppressed for so long was released. Besides the pain, it was like a flowing spring, which finally gave rise to sweetness in the heart.
After hugging her for an unknown amount of time, Lu Yinbing whispered the first words since entering the tent into her ear. Her voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded more like a soft sigh:
"I missed you so much."
