"Good morning." Xia Yitong remained stiff, vaguely feeling something brushing the back of her neck, with a slight coolness that seemed to suddenly ignite sparks on her hot skin.
After Lu Yinbing let go, he looked at her nervously for some reason, and found that her eyes were completely out of focus. After letting go for a minute, he fell down again. Lu Yinbing pulled down the air-conditioning blanket that belonged to her on the bed and covered her. As soon as Xia Yitong covered her, her hands started to pull around restlessly, and she threw it far away with her eyes closed. Lu Yinbing threw a pillow at her, and this time Xia Yitong hugged it tightly and buried her face in it. Her arms and legs were spread wide because of the heat, and she lay on the ground with her legs spread out, and even her underwear under her nightgown was exposed.
Lu Yinbing thought with amusement: "You call this a good sleeping posture? It's not much better than mine, right?"
She completely forgot that she was the culprit behind all this.
At five thirty three, Xiaoxi knocked on the door.
"Here it comes." The prone young woman moved her fingers, then put her palms on the ground, tilted her neck upward, supported her body, and tried her best to tear herself off the pillow, struggling painfully for several times.
Seeing how sleepy she was, Lu Yinbing simply picked up the quilt that had been thrown away and whispered in her ear, "Lie down, I'll go open the door."
Xia Yitong let out a breath and fell down completely.
Then she suddenly opened her eyes again, turned her head and saw the long-haired woman in long-sleeved shirt and long pants pajamas with her back to her who was going to open the door. It was as if a heavy hammer hit her brain, making her scattered nerves even more messy, and only one nerve returned to normal.
"I'm wearing a suspender pajamas now. Someone is about to come in, so I have to cover myself up." So she decisively picked up the quilt that Lu Yinbing had returned to her, wrapped herself tightly in it, sat on the ground with her knees hugged, and looked out the door with confused eyes.
"Good morning, Mr. Lu."
"Good morning." Lu Yinbing let Xiaoxi in, and went to the cubicle to wash up with her hair in one hand.
"Uh... Teacher Xia, what are you doing?" Xiaoxi looked at Xia Yitong, who was lying on the ground with disheveled hair and a face like a bullied young wife, and suddenly countless cameras appeared in her mind, recording Xia Yitong's current situation and expression with her mind's eyes. I didn't expect that Miss Lu... was so fierce that she even got him off the bed.
My sister Lu is a ruthless person in society. She is wild. Quite wild. Well... to put it in a rounded way, it's almost wild.
Clap, clap, clap.
Xiaoxi applauded Lu Yinbing enthusiastically in her heart.
It’s not like Xia Yitong hasn’t slept late before, especially when she was filming or running around for announcements, lack of sleep was a common thing, but she used to be able to rest quietly for two or three hours every day, no matter how lacking sleep she had, unlike last night when she was tossing and turning all night, and was slapped and kicked in the head. Dizziness was the first feeling she had when she sat up, and it lasted for two minutes without relief. There was a buzzing in her ears, and she wanted to lie down. I don’t know if it was simply because of the quality of sleep, or the sequelae of hitting her head last night.
Xiaoxi studied her idol with an inquiring gaze and found that something seemed to be wrong. How could she not get up from her sitting position? She almost lay down several times, but she supported her body with her hands and refused to fall.
Could it be that Teacher Lu was too crazy last night? Xiaoxi cursed herself secretly: "What are you thinking about? You are always filling your brain with colored garbage. Stop thinking!"
"Teacher Xia?"
When Xia Yitong heard the voice, he looked around blankly in the direction where the voice came from, his face tense and expressionless.
"Teacher Xia, I'm Teacher Lu's assistant, Xiaoxi."
Lu? Oh, Lu Yinbing's Lu...
Xia Yitong's expression seemed to relax, and she habitually revealed a gentle smile.
"Teacher Xia?"
Xia Yitong tried her best to identify the figure in front of her with her eyes. Her face turned pale, her lips moved, and she whispered, "Xiaoxi, help me up. I feel dizzy."
"Okay, I'll help you up right away." Xiaoxi hurriedly went to support her arm, but she didn't expect that although Xia Yitong looked thin, her body was very firm due to exercise. She didn't use all her strength at the first try and failed to help her up.
Xia Yitong grabbed her arm, and when Xiaoxi lost her strength and fell, she also fell down. Xiaoxi was almost scared to death, so she knelt down and let her fall on her.
"What are you two doing?"
As soon as Lu Yinbing came out, he saw the scene where his lover in the play and his assistant were rolling in a ball, which was really strange.
"Teacher Xia said she felt dizzy and asked me to help her up, but I didn't help her up and we both fell to the ground. Teacher Lu, please come and help." Xiaoxi saw the reinforcements, explained, and quickly asked for help.
"Dizzy? Why are you suddenly dizzy?" Lu Yinbing came over, holding Xia Yitong's waist with one hand, and motioning Xiaoxi with the other hand to get out of the way. Xiaoxi walked away, and Lu Yinbing helped her stand up easily. Xia Yitong was supported by her, and as soon as she felt the soft mattress under her, she stood up immediately, swayed her body, and shook her head vigorously: "I don't want to sleep, I want to go to film."
"What's the point of filming when you can't even recognize people? I'll ask for leave for you." Lu Yinbing gave a rare kind advice.
"No... no," Xia Yitong uttered two words slowly. She closed her eyes and the dizziness eased a little. "I just asked for leave because of a cold. How can I ask for leave again? It's not like I'm missing an arm or a leg. I just need to rest for a while."
"So I'll help you get on the bed and take a rest."
"No, I'll go wash up and rest while I wash up."
Lu Yinbing didn't know whether to praise her for her greatness and dedication or to scold her for being reckless. Her expression changed several times and she said calmly, "Then go ahead."
Xia Yitong closed her eyes, looked towards her face pitifully, and said weakly: "Teacher Lu, can you... help me go?"
Lu Yinbing pinched her chin. Xia Yitong's words were quite dramatic, but she decided to pretend not to notice because she was dizzy. "Okay, I'll help you. Xiaoxi, go upstairs and pack my luggage. Bring the room card and check out when you leave. Don't bother the crew."
Xiaoxi agreed and went out.
Fang Hui usually comes over after Xia Yitong has prepared everything and sends her a WeChat message before leaving home to report her itinerary and so on. She doesn't need to be served in every detail like Xiaoxi does, because Xia Yitong is not used to having someone serve her daily life like Lu Yinbing is.
Because of this, no one knocked on the door when I was washing up, and the space in the house was very quiet, so quiet that the only sound was... the sound of splashing water.
Xia Yitong stood in front of the washstand, and could barely see herself in the mirror. She picked up the toothbrush, filled it with water, put it aside, and picked up the toothbrush. A hand reached out from the side and rubbed her fingertips vaguely, as if the fingertips suddenly touched the taut strings of a guitar, causing her to shudder. She was still doubting herself in the unreal touch, and the handle of the toothbrush was stuffed into her palm.
Did Lu Yinbing squeeze the toothpaste for her? Did Lu Yinbing squeeze the toothpaste for her!!! The next thought was: but she didn’t see it clearly because she was dizzy!!!
At the slight buzzing sound of the electric toothbrush, Xia Yitong felt regretful and repeatedly had the urge to swallow the foam.
"Were you hot last night?"
Xia Yitong: "Woo woo..."
"Speak human language."
Xia Yitong took out the toothbrush: "Mmm..."
Lu Yinbing: “…”
After rinsing her mouth, Xia Yitong lied seriously: "No."
“I see you sweat so much?”
“I got up in the morning and took a shower, and it was just water.”
"Then why are you dizzy? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Um."
"Why?"
"It's so exciting to sleep with a goddess. I'm too excited to sleep."
"real?"
"Why can't I see any excitement on your face?"
Xia Yitong immediately bared her small white teeth, "Excited, very excited."
Lu Yinbing glanced at her, said nothing, and turned to go out. Xia Yitong didn't know whether to wash her face first or chase Lu Yinbing first. After a third of a second, she turned off the faucet and chased after him.
"Teacher Lu, are you unhappy?"
"What do you think?" Lu Yinbing raised her eyelids and glanced at her. Xia Yitong's tricks were not good enough in her eyes. Could she not tell the difference between water and sweat? She had even smelled it just now.
"I'm sorry. I was wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"I shouldn't have lied and said I wasn't hot. I have a hot body. I used to sleep at 24 degrees every night. I woke up last night because I was hot."
"Why don't you say it?" Lu Yinbing asked, completely unaware that the two of them were acting like a young couple quarreling.
"I'm afraid..." Xia Yitong glanced at her, lowered his head, and said softly, "I'm afraid you'll kick me out after you find out."
"What's your logic? Am I that kind of person?" Lu Yinbing said coldly.
Xia Yitong panicked when he saw the coldness on her face, and said incoherently: "I, I don't mean that. I'm just afraid that I can't live with you. I'm afraid that you'll move out. I'm afraid that you'll hate me. It doesn't matter if it's too hot. I can buy a fan and sleep on the floor. I..."
Lu Yinbing didn't say anything, but she became more and more anxious as she spoke. Her voice trembled and her eyes turned red. Lu Yinbing was originally sitting on the edge of the bed, but suddenly stood up and reached out to hold her trembling hand.
Lu Yinbing's throat seemed to be blocked by something, and his heart suddenly felt sour and swollen: "You don't have to do this."
Xia Yitong looked at her blankly.
Lu Yinbing asked: "Why do you do this?"
Xia Yitong's eyes hurt so much that she was about to cry.
Because I like you.
Xia Yitong took a deep breath, held back her tears, and said, "I'm afraid you hate me."
This kid looks mature, but actually he still has a childish temperament.
Thinking of this, Lu Yinbing became more tolerant. He touched her head and said gently, "I don't hate you. I like you."
Xia Yitong blinked her eyes that were wet with tears, looking both well-behaved and pitiful.
"Didn't you hear the voice message I sent you last night?" Lu Yinbing's hand slid from the top of her head to the back of her head, stroking her long hair, and said, "You are very serious and hardworking, I like you. Don't always be so humble, you seem to treat me like a god, it's very hard. I don't like being treated like a god either."
You are always worried that I will hate you. Even if it is true, so what? You don’t live for me. There are other people who like you.
But she didn't dare to say the latter part. After she finished speaking, Xia Yitong would definitely think too much and then flood Jinshan Temple. She couldn't comfort her. She was so scared and couldn't bear to see her cry.
Xia Yitong was silent for a while, then said sullenly, "Teacher Lu."
Lu Yinbing said "Hey" like coaxing a child, and said with a smile: "I'm here."
"Can you hug me?"
Lu Yinbing hugged her and rubbed her back. Xia Yitong took a deep breath on her shoulder, stepped out of her arms, and said energetically: "I'm going to wash my face! Let's go to the set together later!"
"good."
Xia Yitong was dressed neatly, and Xiaoxi also came back with her suitcase. She placed her suitcase side by side with Xia Yitong's in the corner and said, "Teacher Lu, I'm going to check out downstairs."
Xia Yitong said: "I'm done with my work, let's go together."
After meeting up with Fang Hui at the door, the four of them took the elevator together and went to the hotel front desk.
Xiaoxi handed over the room card.
The other three were waiting, either sitting or standing.
"Okay, please wait a moment." The front desk pressed the intercom, "Guest room, guest room, 4024 check out, check it out."
"receive."
A minute and a half later, the front desk intercom received a reply: "The items are intact. But there is a small bottle under the cabinet, tied with a blue ribbon, and inside the bottle is a folded paper star. Is it left by the guest?"
Lu Yinbing had just coaxed Xia Yitong, and the two were chatting and laughing. The intercom at the front desk was loud, so these words naturally reached her ears. Her heart skipped a beat and she suddenly froze.
She finally knew what the disturbing thing was that she had forgotten.
Oh no, she went to see Xia Yitong immediately.
Xia Yitong looked at her very calmly, with the corners of her mouth curved, as if she was trying to smile, but failed before it formed. She finally couldn't pretend anymore, nodded to Lu Yinbing apologetically, walked quickly to the front desk, and said politely and gently: "Excuse me, can you take the bottle down and let me see it? That might be mine."
