Although Yan Zixiu completely trusted Jing Shaoci, he had been fooled a lot recently, so he had to be vigilant.
"Just tell me what this thing is, you don't have to use it yourself."
Jing Shaoci laughed secretly. He did not answer Yan Zixiu's question, but directly opened the box.
The box tilted slightly and seven or eight small bags with sawtooth edges fell out. The colorful packaging looked like candy.
Jing Shaoci picked up one at random, "Yan Yan, what color do you like?"
Yan Zixiu thought for a while, "Black."
Jing Shaoci raised his eyebrows, "Unfortunately, this thing doesn't come in black."
"Why?"
"Because..." The corner of his mouth raised a malicious arc, "Black makes you look thinner."
Yan Zixiu became more and more confused, and he didn't understand what the connection was.
At this moment, Jing Shaoci suddenly sighed while looking at the letters on the box.
"Why are you sighing?"
"This is the model number." He pointed to the "Large" on it and asked Yan Zixiu to look at it. "It's OK for you to use, but I don't think it will work for me."
Jing Shaoci was actually just taking the opportunity to tease his little glutinous rice balls. After all, this opportunity would probably not come again in a while, so he had to cherish his time.
Yan Zixiu didn't know that the other party's mind was full of unspeakable things at this time, and he just thought that the sweet potato was leading him to learn new things.
"These also have various flavors."
"Flavors?"
As soon as the voice fell, Jing Shaoci swept the small bag beside the bed to the ground, then grabbed Yan Zixiu's wrist and pushed him down.
"I'll take you to learn more about it."

The next day, the assistant went to the hotel front desk to settle the bill, but was petrified when he got the bill.
After recovering from the shock, he immediately ran to the elevator, and when he got in the car, he handed the list to Li Fengzhi with a dumbfounded look.
"Li, Brother Li, take a look..."
Li Fengzhi took the list, and the assistant pointed at one of the items with trembling fingertips. When he saw it clearly, his eyes suddenly widened.
One box, a whole box? !
Li Fengzhi swallowed twice, thinking in his heart: Can Zixiu still run the promotion today?
He had just finished instructing the assistant, and Yan Zixiu opened the door and got in the car.
Li Fengzhi asked the driver to go to another car, and sat in the driver's seat himself.
After the car left the hotel parking lot, he asked tentatively: "Zixiu, how was your rest last night?"
Yan Zixiu said calmly: "Not bad."
Li Fengzhi glanced at his waist and continued: "If it's not good, I can discuss with the publicity team and we will go to one less place today."
Yan Zixiu thought that the other party was concerned about him, so he turned around and said: "No need, since you promised, you'd better go."
Li Fengzhi coughed lightly, "Then tell me if you're tired."
"Okay."

Although Deng Fang was arrogant, he said one thing correctly.
A truly good movie will not be buried by capital power, and the market still relies on the audience's word of mouth.
Especially in today's information-developed society, even if the early publicity is not in place, the audience will spontaneously form an Amway army.
After watching the first screening, more than half of the dozen well-known film critics were unable to write when they returned home, because they were afraid that the language description was too pale and would drown out the bright spots of the doomsday catastrophe.
On the day of the premiere, although Shanhai 2 became the fastest movie to break the billion-dollar box office in China, it was also criticized by the world.
The special effects were poor, the plot was dragging, and the most criticized thing was the inexplicable emotional entanglement between the male and female protagonists.
[Feng Yanqing was able to collect so many mountain and sea monsters in the previous film, but in this film, he is like a paper man that falls apart at the slightest poke. The character setting is as fragile as a dumpling. ]
[Is this still a fantasy film? Is it a fucking romance drama? I spent tens of dollars to buy a ticket just to see the hero lying in the heroine's arms and gasping for breath? 】
【When Jiubao came out, the special effects made me laugh. Compared with the previous one, all the monsters in this one look like they are made of plasticine. 】
The publicity team of Shanhai 2 has been spending money to suppress negative hot searches, and most of the entries are flattering and praising. At the same time, they are still issuing press releases to slam Doomsday.
On the 2nd, five well-known film critics posted on Weibo at the same time, and the content was all about the movie "The Doomsday".
It was also on this day that Doomsday topped the hot search list of major platforms with its own reputation.
It closed with a dismal 70 million on the day of the premiere, but the growth rate of Doomsday's box office began to show its edge from the second day.
On the ticketing platform, 97% of the audience who watched the movie gave it a five-star rating.
On the fourth day, the film review website released the score, and Doomsday received 8.9 points, while Shanhai 2 only received 6.6 points, and it was still declining.
[Friends! Watching Doomsday is really worth it! ! I didn't dare to breathe heavily during the whole movie, and even forgot to eat popcorn. ]
[Yan Zixiu's every move is full of hormones. I really love this kind of rough and handsome guy! ! ]
[At the end, when Ji Luo, played by Duan Shaoheng, died, I burst into tears and directly snatched a pack of tissues from my girlfriend. ]
When the box office exceeded 2 billion, Yan Zixiu finally ended the long promotion.
He declined the invitation of the director and producer and flew back to City B that day.
"Zixiu, I think the box office will break 4 billion in the next two days, remember to shoot daily vlogs." Li Fengzhi reminded.
Since it was a promise, Yan Zixiu would definitely do it, "Okay."
"Just send it to my email after shooting, I will keep an eye on the post-production work."
When Jing Shaoci returned home, Yan Zixiu was watching other celebrities' daily videos on his notebook.
He took off his coat and walked over, and found that a picture of a male celebrity changing into pajamas appeared on the screen.
'Snap' - the laptop was closed.
Yan Zixiu looked up, "I'm still watching."
"You are not allowed to watch."
Yan Zixiu looked at the other person's cold face and explained, "I just borrowed a method."
Jing Shaoci was already very unhappy. When he thought that in addition to him, countless people would see Yan Zixiu's usual appearance, he instantly got angry.
Yan Zixiu took the initiative to hold his hand and coaxed, "Just this time." The
matter was done, and Jing Shaoci also knew the temper of his lover. After a long time, he said, "Then I must take a photo for you."
Yan Zixiu nodded, "Okay."
Since it was to share daily life, it was natural to do what he usually did at home when filming.
Yan Zixiu thought about it seriously and prepared to record the cooking process once, but he couldn't film it at Jing's house.
After Jing Shaoci heard his decision, he said solemnly, "Why not at home?"
Yan Zixiu pointed to the glass cup he placed next to him and said, "This thing alone is worth a year's worth of money for an ordinary person. If the surrounding furnishings are also included in the photo, it will only add to the trouble."
Every word he said made sense, and Jing Shaoci could not refute it.
On the tenth day of its release, the box office of "The Doomsday" successfully exceeded the 4 billion mark, and the official Weibo and Yan Zixiu himself also fulfilled their promise and released a daily vlog.
The picture starts with Yan Zixiu washing up in the bathroom in pajamas. After wiping his face with a towel, he returned to the bedroom to fold the quilt.
The two pillows on the bed did not attract attention, but if you look closely at each frame, you will find that both pillows have dents from sleeping.
After making the bed, Yan Zixiu raised his hand to cover the camera, and when he put it down again, he had already changed into his home clothes.
[Haha, brother, you are too polite. Why can't a family member watch when they change clothes? ! ]
[Brother Xiu looks good in anything. Sisters, please link to the same style! ! ]
Yan Zixiu turned around and picked up a pair of silver-framed glasses. These were prepared by the stylist. Celebrities usually wear them to cover eye blemishes when they are not wearing makeup, but for Yan Zixiu, they are just accessories.
"Today, I will make a dish of sweet potato with shreds for everyone." As
soon as the words fell, the ingredients and seasonings jumped onto the screen in the form of animation.
When Yan Zixiu was cutting vegetables, the camera was lowered to shine on his white and slender fingers. He was just simply cutting the sweet potato into pieces, but it was also pleasing to the eye.
After the whole dish was prepared, it was served on the table. During this period, every time Yan Zixiu looked at the camera, his eyes were completely different from usual.
[Is it my illusion? Brother Xiu's eyes are so gentle today that tears are about to drip out.]
[Help, my heart is beating faster than when we first kissed just by looking at his face through the screen.]
[Brother, don't be the shredded sweet potato, be me!!!]
Yan Zixiu's perfectly jointed hands picked up a piece of shredded sweet potato with chopsticks, fed it to the side of the camera, and said with a very slight smile in his eyes: "Is it delicious?"
From the audience's intuitive perspective, this piece was equivalent to being fed to them, but in fact, Yan Zixiu's eyes were looking at the shredded sweet potato itself.
This daily vlop is only more than five minutes long, but fans are deeply immersed in this video.
He is a cold and aloof male god outside, and a gentle and reserved good husband at home. No one can resist him.
[No one objects to saying that he is the number one spoiled attacker in domestic entertainment, right? ]
[It's amazing, it's really amazing, I, a passerby, swallow my saliva when I see it. ]
[Someone come and save me! ! I have watched it more than 30 times and still can't stop! ! ]
This video undoubtedly adds a high heat to the already popular movie. Not to mention the work team of Doomsday, the investors of Shanhai Monster Catcher are already crying together.
The total investment of Shanhai Part 2 is as high as 1.5 billion. On this basis, the box office must at least double to barely make a profit.
If the first part hadn't been a good example, the second part wouldn't have been compared to the dregs. But now it's too late to say anything. Not only did the investors lose money, but the stock prices of several producers have also fallen.
After the successful postponement of "The Doomsday", Yan Zixiu's personal myth has convinced the industry.
The entertainment industry is a place that believes in metaphysics. Some actors are obviously good-looking and popular, but they are box office poison once they appear on the big screen.
There are also actors who are both hardworking and talented, but eight out of ten of their films cannot be screened.
Although it is a bit unfair to say so, luck is really too important in this industry.
Yan Zixiu's every film is a hit. Before he was 30 years old, he became the actor with the highest cumulative box office in China. Even those who dislike him cannot deny Yan Zixiu's current status.
Countless excellent scripts fell on Xingyi like snowflakes, and even foreign first-line directors extended olive branches with sincerity.
Just when everyone was guessing what Yan Zixiu's next play would be, Li Fengzhi, as an agent, refused all work in the second half of the year.
In early July, Yan Zixiu and Li Fengzhi attended the wedding of Lu Qiaobei and Yin Jue with their families.
At the wedding, Yan Zixiu went on stage as a matchmaker for the two and gave a testimony.
Finally, he put his hand on the two people's clasped hands and said, "You two are a match made in heaven. May you grow old together."
At this moment, Lu Qiaobei and Yin Jue felt a very mysterious feeling in their hearts, as if something invisible had completely connected their hearts together, without any gap.
Various news about Lu Qiaobei's wedding were hot on the hot search for two days. Although a small number of fans found it difficult to accept, the vast majority sent their blessings.
It seemed that every couple had gotten married, but Yan Zixiu still hadn't made an official announcement with Jing Shaoci.
After stopping all the announcements, Yan Zixiu stayed at home every day. Xie Wanxin asked him several times about his thoughts on wedding preparations, but he just smiled and said nothing.
Time passed day by day, not to mention Jing Shaoci, even Yin Qinghe and others were getting a little anxious.
In mid-July, Yan Zixiu received a message from Li Fengzhi. On that day, Jing Shaoci had just arrived home, and the little Taoist offered to take him to a place.
"Where to?"
"You'll know when you get there."
As soon as the voice fell, Yan Zixiu hugged his waist and pinched the magic with his left hand.
Jing Shaoci opened his eyes again and they were already at the foot of a mountain.
"This place is called Zhuguang Mountain. I have already bought the entire mountain."
In China, unless the government develops tourism, no one has the right to buy or sell even a very small hill.
This time, Yan Zixiu was able to buy it because of a favor from the Special Management Office.
Jing Shaoci looked at the large expanse of barren land and dead forests around him, frowned, and said, "What do you want to do with this place?"
Yan Zixiu did not answer his question, but held his hand and said, "Let's go up first."
The two of them slowly walked up the dilapidated and broken stairs at the foot of the mountain. With every step they took, the scenery behind them began to change dramatically.
The dilapidated stone steps all turned into jade platforms. The late summer breeze blew across the mountain, and all they could see were lush forests and misty lakes. Even the corridors rose halfway up the mountain.
Jing Shaoci's fingers tightened, and his heart couldn't help but beat.
"This is the place." As
soon as he finished speaking, Yan Zixiu raised his right hand and waved it.
A green light flowed out from the silver ring on Jing Shaoci's hand like smoke, but in the blink of an eye, a palace appeared in front of the two of them.
"What do you think of this palace?"
This palace is already the most inconspicuous side hall in Yuqing Zhenjing, but it still exudes an incomparable sacred and vast aura in this world.
Jing Shaoci's guess became reality at this moment. He said hoarsely: "Yan Yan..."
"If you are satisfied, this is the palace where we will get married."
Yan Zixiu smiled and looked into his eyes and said: "Jing Shaoci, I love you, let's get married."
As he said this, the scheduled Weibo was also sent out on time -
Yan Zixiu: [You are all the sparkling light in my eyes. @Jing Shaoci]
