Xia Yitong fell down without blinking, and did not even hesitate. His head felt dizzy after he fell down so suddenly, and he almost got a mild concussion.

If the people around her had not rushed to the night snack stall first, she would have been at a loss in the situation and would never have chosen such a clumsy method. Fortunately, Fang Hui thought quickly and Qin Hanlin finally let her go and gave her a ride on his Lu brand car.

Lu Yinbing didn't move: "..."

No matter how I look at it, I feel that the artist surnamed Xia did it on purpose and didn't want to take her back at all.

Seeing no one coming to help her, Xia Yitong closed her eyes, tilted her head, and continued to lie in Fang Wei's arms.

As the only man present, Qin Hanlin volunteered to pick up Xia Yitong and put her on a chair, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

Xia Yitong: "Well, Director Qin, please go have a midnight snack first."

"No, I won't. You're like this, and I'm still going out for a midnight snack. Am I a human being?" Qin Hanlin raised his voice a little and said, "If I go back to the hotel alone, I'm even less of a human being."

Lu, who was just about to go back to the hotel alone, said, "Alright, alright, Old Qin, go have your midnight snack, I'll take you back."

"Then I'm leaving. Bye. I'll make sure to send you to the bed myself." Qin Hanlin showed his fox tail. He didn't care that Lu Yinbing called him old again. He happily went forward to catch up with the large group.

Xia Yitong lay weakly on the recliner.

Lu Yinbing said: "I know you are pretending, get up and leave by yourself."

Xia Yitong still had her eyes closed.

As the saying goes, the highest level of deception is to deceive yourself. She has a good understanding of Lu Yinbing's personality. The best way now is to pretend to the end, until she believes it herself, and then Lu Yinbing will doubt her own judgment. Otherwise, if Lu Yinbing sees through her fraud, she will most likely suffer the consequences.

Lu Yinbing said impatiently: "Hey."

Xia Yitong: “…”

Lu Yinbing's expression relaxed a little: "Can you still walk?"

Xia Yitong tightly grasped Fang Hui's arm, and the blue veins on the back of her hand were clearly visible. She opened her mouth and whispered, "Yes, I just feel a little dizzy."

Lu Yinbing: “…”

She said, "Come on, stop trying to show off. You are so young and your health is so bad. What will you do when you get older? I can't exercise now. If I could, I would stay in the gym every day."

Xia Yitong felt warm in her heart, so sweet that she almost didn't know which way was which. She said dazedly, "I understand, Teacher Lu. I will definitely exercise more in the future."

Fang Hui thought to herself, "This teacher Xia is such a bullshit guy. Not to mention all the training he did when he had free time, even after joining the crew, he did hundreds of squats every night, carried dumbbells in his suitcase at all times, and trained his arms to have big muscles."

Lu Yinbing glanced at the two assistants and said, "Who of you is stronger?"

Xiaoxi is 160cm tall, with thin arms and legs. She looks like a little girl who hasn't fully grown her hair at the age of 25. Fang Hui is 166cm tall, with a well-proportioned figure. She has been working out in the gym with Xia Yitong for a long time, and her arms look long and strong.

Lu Yinbing said "Oh" and looked at Fang Hui: "You come and help her."

Xiaoxi: “…”

Unhappy!

Xia Yitong: “…”

She put in a lot of effort to act, but in the end it was her assistant who took her back... But at least she got the chance to go back to the hotel together, which was better than nothing.

The walk from the studio to the hotel took at most five minutes, but Xia Yitong's "low blood sugar" dragged it to ten minutes. However, Lu Yinbing didn't speak a word. Her usually bright brain seemed to be rusted. She thought of countless topics to start with, but her brain ruthlessly killed them.

"Teacher Lu."

"Are you still dizzy?"

They both spoke and answered at the same time: "What's the matter?" / "Much better."

The frozen atmosphere gradually disappeared, and what followed was much better. Although it was not very intimate, it was very natural, like an ordinary conversation between friends.

"You are the patient, you speak first."

Xia Yitong did not refuse: "Okay, am I not watching your play tonight? I have a question, although it is not particularly related to this play."

"Well, go ahead."

"How can you act out real indifference instead of expressionless expression?"

"puff."

"Hey, Teacher Lu..." Xia Yitong was embarrassed by her laughter. As soon as she spoke, she said it with a hint of pouting, revealing a hint of being teased and reproached, "I really want to know, you're still laughing."

Lu Yinbing tilted his head to look at her, a hint of displeasure flashed across his brows: "I just laughed."

Xia Yitong was afraid that she would be unhappy and was afraid of such a look, so she withdrew her intimacy.

"Look, this is it."

"Ah? What is this?"

"You want indifference."

"But you just smiled."

"Do you think cold people can't smile?"

"Not really, but you clearly didn't sneer just now. It was a very casual smile, not cold at all!"

"Yes, because I lied to you."

"Teacher Lu, you--" Xia Yitong turned her head, her smile froze on her face, and the next words were swallowed into her throat because of Lu Yinbing's expression.

She didn't look relaxed at all, her lips moved slightly, her eyes looked at her mysteriously, and under the early morning street lights, it was chilling, a standard sneer. She then grinned again, revealing her white teeth, and said faintly: "I was lying to you."

Lu Yinbing said, "Look behind you, there is a woman in a red dress, lying on your back, blowing cold air on your neck, and her tongue is so long, it's hanging out."

There was silence all around. I could hear the barking of a wild dog from somewhere, the sound of something being stepped on, and the gurgling sound of a bottle rolling to the ground. The air was empty and deep.

"Just like this." Lu Yinbing blew air, "Hu-Hu-Hu-"

Xia Yitong froze, and the hairs on his back stood up.

Lu Yinbing suddenly screamed, "She has her tongue wrapped around your neck!" She stepped back hastily, covering her neck with her hands, looking terrified, "I don't know you, don't come looking for me!"

Xia Yitong couldn't help but put her hand towards her neck and touched something cold. She was horrified: "Ahhh!" Then she grabbed the thing and twisted it hard, then grabbed the arm cleanly and was about to throw it over her shoulder!

After seeing the person clearly, I stopped halfway.

"Ahhh!" Xiaoxi squatted on the ground, covering her index finger that was about to be broken, with tears streaming down her face.

She wants to resign and no longer be Lu Yinbing's assistant. She only had tendonitis before, but now she has to work part-time as an actor in a horror movie. If she doesn't get a pay raise, she will resign!

Lu Yinbing squatted down to check Xiaoxi's injuries, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'll give you a raise this month."

So Xiaoxi changed her mind about resigning with tears in her eyes.

Xia Yitong hurriedly went to apologize to Xiaoxi, saying that she had some medicine and would apply some to her and bandage her wounds when she got back. Xiaoxi's idol loved her so much that her fingers immediately stopped hurting after the mental treatment, and her head became like a rattle: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt! It doesn't hurt at all!"

Lu Yinbing next to her was stunned. Who is her boss

Originally, Lu Yinbing only planned to send Xia Yitong to the door of the room. Now Xiaoxi's hand needed to be treated with medicine for safety reasons, so it was natural for her to enter Xia Yitong's room. The rooms in the hotel were all the same, nothing to see, and Lu Yinbing was observing the different furnishings.

The most eye-catching thing was the glass wishing bottle on the table in front of the window. It looked familiar. Lu Yinbing sent a WeChat message to Xiaoxi and asked her to check her phone. Xiaoxi immediately opened the WeChat interface and handed her the phone.

Lu Yinbing compared it with Xia Yitong's WeChat avatar and found that it was the one on the table.

Lu Yinbing looked at the small and exquisite transparent bottle, and didn't even realize that his voice was filled with a faint smile: "Did you make the stars inside?"

Xia Yitong was holding a medical kit in her arms. She looked over and her expression suddenly became nervous: "Yes."

Fortunately, Lu Yinbing didn't even look at her and asked, "Are you still folding now?"

"Sometimes."

Lu Yinbing scraped the blue ribbon on the bottle mouth with his fingers and raised the corners of his mouth.

There are very few young people who are so fresh and unpretentious. If I remember correctly, stacking stars seems to be a trend in junior high school or elementary school? It can be maintained until now. Lu Yinbing admires such people. No matter what it is, even if it is a trivial matter, people who can persist for more than ten years are amazing.

When Xia Yitong saw the movement of her fingers, her heart almost jumped out, fearing that she would open it.

Xiaoxi: “Hiss—”

"I'm sorry." Xia Yitong whispered, calming himself down and focusing on the fingers in front of him, but the speed of bandaging increased significantly.

"It's a pity that I have forgotten how to fold it. I spent a lot of time learning it, but I gave up after folding a few." Lu Yinbing sighed, her attention always focused on the bottle. She entered the Capital Film Academy at the age of fifteen, and then she focused all her attention on acting. She has no youth memories of many of her peers.

"I'll teach you. It's very simple." Xia Yitong immediately responded with a smile. She rolled up the remaining bandages, put them in the medicine box, and handed them to Fang Wei. When she looked up, she was met with Lu Yinbing's gaze, which was perhaps called astonishment, and she hesitated to change the subject, "I mean, if Teacher Lu doesn't mind, I can teach you... you."

"We'll talk about it when we have time."

"Oh, okay."

Xia Yitong looked at her toes, not knowing what she had done wrong and why the smile on her face suddenly turned cold.

Lu Yinbing attributed her inexplicable unhappiness to the fact that Xia Yitong knew how to fold stars while she couldn't and had to ask her for help, rather than to Xia Yitong's suddenly unfamiliar tone.
