Xiaoxi: Teacher Xia, have you arrived at the set

Two minutes later, Xia Yitong replied: Not yet.

Xiaoxi immediately reminded Lu Yinbing and said, "Yes, yes."

Lu Yinbing looked at the WeChat application and approved it after Xiaoxi said this:

Now that you've added land and stars, you can start chatting.

Lu Yinbing typed: Yitong, are you there

Xia Yitong took the cup from Fang Wei, drank a sip of warm water, set the settings to prevent the entertainment reporter from viewing her Moments, and then sent a WeChat message to Xiaoxi: "Has Mr. Lu been here for a long time?" The phone was in flight mode at night and just turned it on.

Did you just wake up

Hmm. I feel a little uncomfortable and got up late.

Xiaoxi reported: "Report, Teacher Xia said she is not feeling well."

Lu Yinbing was about to explode into the sky, but suddenly fell down. She pursed her lips and said, "Ask her what's wrong?"

Teacher Lu asked me to ask you... Xiaoxi paused, raised her head and asked, "Should I ask in your name or in my name?"

Lu Yinbing was very surprised and said as a matter of course: "Of course it's yours."

I don’t know if it was Lu Yinbing’s illusion, but after she said this, Xiaoxi seemed a little disappointed.

What's wrong with you? I'm quite free now, I'll buy you some medicine and send it to you.

Maybe I soaked in cold water for too long and the air conditioner was set too low at night, so I caught a cold. You don't need to buy medicine, I have some here, thank you.

"Teacher Xia caught a cold. He probably has a fever." Xiaoxi added fuel to the fire.

Lu Yinbing said "hmm" lightly, and her fingers slowly tightened the armrest of the chair, revealing her true emotions. This scourge, with low blood sugar and a cold, the abdominal muscles on his waist were like white training, and he was as fragile as tofu.

"I'll ask Qin Hanlin for leave for her so she can have a good rest."

Xiaoxi: "Should this sentence be posted in your name or in my name?"

Lu Yinbing glanced at her for a long time and said, "Mine."

"Okay."

Before Xiaoxi finished typing, Xia Yitong's message came in:

Did Teacher Lu ask about me

Xiaoxi deleted the half-typed sentence and replied: No question.

Xia Yitong sent a [sad] expression. Xiaoxi glanced at Lu Yinbing secretly: This is what she asked me to tell you. I asked her several times this morning, but she wouldn't let me. So I have to withdraw this message. Your next reply is "This expression is so funny, I'm going to steal the picture."

Then Xiaoxi immediately withdrew the message, and Xia Yitong responded cooperatively: This expression is so funny, I want to steal the picture

Xiaoxi: Stealing pictures is shameful.

Xia Yitong: Ah, I withdrew it so quickly that I didn’t have time to save it.

Xiaoxi: Teacher Lu asked me to tell you that she will ask Director Qin for leave for you, so that you can have a good rest in the hotel.

Xia Yitong: Thank you.

This "thank you" made Xiaoxi feel confused. What was there to thank for

After Lu Yinbing finished reading the chat history, he didn't think much about Xiaoxi's withdrawn message and asked, "What's there to thank me for?"

Xiaoxi spread her hands.

Hotel.

Xia Yitong took off the ice towel on her head, opened the quilt and jumped off the bed. Fang Wei was shocked: "What's wrong with you?"

"I want to go to the set to see Lu Yinbing!" Xia Yitong's face was red, with excitement and fever acting together.

When Fang Wei saw her glowing eyes, she knew she couldn't stop her, so she worked tirelessly to prepare warm water, medicine and throat lozenges for her, and provided her with a parasol and sunscreen, and a mask and sunglasses. Xia Yitong went out in high spirits, not like a patient.

Lu Yinbing regretted a little that she had added Xia Yitong using a secondary WeChat account. She didn't have a guilty conscience so why would she use a secondary account? She had originally planned to send her the photo taken by Xiaoxi that was saved in her phone to scare her, but now that she was sick, it would be unforgivable for her to do such a thing again.

never mind.

The heavy stone in my heart fell, and a few other unfamiliar emotions emerged. It seemed that other roots had sprouted in the mud in my heart.

Lu Yinbing couldn't sleep, so he asked Xiaoxi casually, "Did Xia Yitong say she has medicine?"

"Yes."

"What kind of medicines are there?"

"I didn't ask. Should I ask now?"

"Ask, in my name."

Xiaoxi's eyes lit up, and she quickly sent a WeChat message: Teacher Lu asked me to ask you, what kind of medicine do you have? She will see if it is enough.

A minute later, Lu Yinbing asked, "Did she come back?"

"not yet."

"She's probably sleeping. You'd better not send messages to avoid disturbing her."

"good."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the dressing room door. Xiaoxi: "Come in."

Xia Yitong came in wearing a mask. The voice coming from behind the mask was muffled, but it carried her unique vigor and charm, which made people feel happy. She called out sweetly and softly, "Teacher Lu!"

Lu Yinbing's heart almost melted by her shouting. The corners of her mouth curled up, then sank down, and she said in a cold voice: "Aren't you sick? Why are you here?"

Why don't you take a good rest in the hotel? You are pretending to be dedicated, you unlucky thing!

Xia Yitong ran to her happily, but was unexpectedly treated coldly. Perhaps sick people are particularly vulnerable. When Xia Yitong was scolded, she felt so aggrieved that she wanted to cry, and tears instantly filled her eyes.

Not wanting to cry in front of her, Xia Yitong turned around and walked out, her feet even at the door before she retreated.

Fang Hui followed behind her and heard Xia Yitong shout anxiously, "Sunglasses."

Xia Yitong put on sunglasses and lowered his head quickly.

"Xia—" It was the first time Fang Hui saw her crying. She was so panicked that she almost kneeled down in front of her. But she was afraid that someone might see her crying, so she swallowed the last two words and pretended to say something in her ear. Of course, she didn't make any sound.

Xia Yitong cried silently under her sunglasses.

Fang Hui also experienced the difficulty of being a star again. She couldn't laugh or cry on her own. She finally had some emotions, but she couldn't show them in front of others. If she fell in love with someone she shouldn't love again, her life would be like Shura mode.

When Xia Yitong left, Lu Yinbing subconsciously wanted to chase her, but her hair got caught in the comb. She was nervous and asked Xiaoxi, as if she understood but didn't understand, "Why did she leave?"

Xiaoxi rarely looked gloomy, and she was furious for her idol, and said indignantly: "How could you say such a thing?"

"What did I say?"

"Teacher Xia is so happy to see you, can't you just say something to her in a nice tone? Do you have to be mean to her?"

"Did I treat her badly?"

"It's fierce!" Xiaoxi was very excited.

"Was I mean to her?" Lu Yinbing looked at the makeup artists blankly, and the makeup artists pecked her head silently.

Lu Yinbing: “…”

Didn't she just express in a very "friendly" way that she should go back to the hotel and have a good rest? Didn't she

In response to her rebuttal, Xiao Xi, who was loyal to her idol, said sarcastically, "I'm sorry, I didn't see that. I only saw that she came over happily, but you drove her away with your cold words."

"Have I?"

"Yes! Maybe he's crying outside right now."

Xia Yitong, who was crying outside, suddenly sneezed softly. Fang Wei took a breath and thought, "Teacher Xia has finally stopped crying."

Under Xiaoxi's accusing gaze, Lu Yinbing reflected for a moment and felt that her "friendly" attitude was probably not fully expressed. She sat there in silence for a while, but finally couldn't sit still anymore. As if a nail was piercing her buttocks, she pushed away the makeup artist's hand and walked out.

Xiaoxi was frightened and hurried to follow.

She dared to talk back to her boss several times. Ah, she didn't want to be fired.

Lu Yinbing looked around the set and saw Xia Yitong and Fang Hui in a corner not far from the dressing room. She turned her head and glanced at Xiaoxi, who nodded vigorously.

Lu Yinbing received the encouragement, smoothed his hair, and walked forward courageously.

Fang Hui thought it was over, but it wasn't. She continued her pantomime without taking a breath. She also had to switch between smiling and serious expressions to show that they were talking seriously. Fang Hui thought tiredly while performing, "After a while, she will be able to make her official debut. She can play a supporting actress, which is much better than the vicious supporting actress who only rolls her eyes in TV dramas."

Looking to see if anyone noticed this, Fang Wei fixed her eyes on the front of her, with a look of horror on her face. She quickly patted Xia Yitong's shoulder, and Xia Yitong whispered in a crying voice: "It will be fine in a while."

"It's too late! Teacher Lu is here!!!"

Xia Yitong: “!!!”

Lu Yinbing: “…”

Why did Xia Yitong immediately turn his back to her as soon as she walked over

Xia Yitong stopped crying and hurriedly wiped the tears from her face with both hands. However, the redness in the corners of her eyes would not disappear in a short time, so she took out her mobile phone and looked at the screen while wearing sunglasses.

Lu Yinbing: "What are you doing?"

Xia Yitong was afraid that making a sound would reveal her crying voice, so she shook the screen in her direction and saw that she was checking Weibo.

Lu Yinbing took the initiative to walk in front of her. Xia Yitong's chin almost poked into her chest, but her heartbeat still accelerated.

Lu Yinbing was half a head taller than her. If you lower your head like this, your red eyes from crying will be exposed to Lu Yinbing's sight. Lu Yinbing held up her chin with his left hand. Xia Yitong struggled for a while, but failed to break free. His right index finger hooked the sunglasses on her nose and gently pulled them out...

A face covered with tear marks appeared in front of Lu Yinbing. Lu Yinbing had seen many people cry in the play, and she herself had cried too. Her crying scene was praised by the media as "one of the most beautiful crying scenes."

Xia Yitong's face was very beautiful, and she looked beautiful even when she cried, but Lu Yinbing felt that he could not appreciate it.

What was certain was that she did not want to see that expression on her face.

Her eyes were filled with tenderness and compassion that she herself hadn't noticed. Her thumb gently stroked the corner of Xia Yitong's eye, and she said softly from the bottom of her heart: "I'm sorry."

Xia Yitong was stunned at first, then threw herself into her arms and burst into tears.

Lu Yinbing was also stunned. His body stiffened for a moment, then relaxed. He put one hand around her warm back and coaxed her stiffly, half gently and half threateningly: "Don't cry. If you cry again, bad guys will kidnap you!"

This was a trick that adults used a long time ago to scare children for being disobedient. Xia Yitong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Lu Yinbing was delighted, and then she heard the crying getting louder.

Lu Yinbing: “…”

The set was noisy with staff coming and going.

Xiaoxi and Fang Hui were relieved at first, but then they felt something was wrong because someone was already taking pictures with their cell phone.

Fang Hui reminded the two in a low voice, but Xia Yitong, who was crying so hard, couldn't hear her at all.

The two assistants were sweating profusely, but suddenly an idea struck them. They looked at each other in tacit understanding, clapped their hands with tears in their eyes, and shouted, "Great acting! Great acting!"

"That's a great performance, isn't it, Fang Hui?"

"Yes, yes, that's great!" Xiaoxi clapped her hands vigorously, and her tears fell in the wind at the right time.

Fang Wei looked at her in shock, thinking, "It seems that I have to give way to Sister Xiaoxi as a supporting role."

So she clapped even harder than Xiaoxi, and this time it was from the bottom of her heart.
