Seeing Wei Er's attitude change so smoothly and his behavior so 'sincere', Xiao Yu secretly covered her mouth and chuckled. Su Daji and Jing Ke also smiled.
Upon seeing Su Daji's stunning smile, Wei Er's expression immediately froze, and he blurted out subconsciously, "...I have another request. Could you invite Miss Su Daji to be the lead actress in my next movie?"
Yu Ningning readily agreed gently: "Of course."
She added, "Or rather, as someone who's just a tool in a film, you only have the options of the people in the room."
Wei Er: ?
Before Wei Er could react, Yu Ningning picked up a teacup, took a slow sip, and said in a persuasive tone, "...Director Wei Er, in addition to your avant-garde scripts, would you be willing to listen to us tell a story that lasts a very, very long time?"
Then she looked at Qin Shi Huang: "Does this guy have any luck or destiny?"
Qin Shi Huang stared at Wei Er cautiously, his expression slightly surprised. He pondered for a moment and said, "...From my personal experience, this person's aura is so powerful that it's like a beam of light shining brightly."
Wei Er: Huh?
Having received a satisfactory answer, Yu Ningning ignored the increasingly bewildered Director Wei Er and looked at Jing Ke, saying gently, "Although you only lived a life of regret, Mr. Jing Ke must have experienced far too much in your life, right?"
"For Mr. Jing Ke, his peaceful departure is a very peaceful relief, but for these wonderful and unique stories that are about to be buried in the soil, it seems too lonely."
"Would you be interested in gathering around the fire tonight, warming some wine, and telling us your story?"
When people have lived for a very long time and are nearing the end of their lives, they often have an inexplicable urge to confide in others. Jing Ke saw through Yu Ningning's intentions at a glance.
But after a moment's hesitation, he readily agreed, saying gently, "...According to Miss Yu, I do have some things to say."
"I would like to trouble Director Wei Er to take the time to listen to this."
...
The story of Jing Ke has lasted for a very, very long time.
It wasn't until the moon had slowly climbed above the willow branches, a pot of wine had been warmed again and again, and even Qin Shi Huang had yawned a couple of times, that Jing Ke finally finished his long narration.
At this point, Wei Er was completely stunned.
The light on the voice recorder in his hand was flashing, indicating that the battery was low, but Wei Er couldn't care less. With his mouth agape in bewilderment, he murmured to Yu Ningning, "Miss Yu, is everything that Mr. Jing Ke said just now true?"
"he……"
He then looked at Su Daji and Qin Shi Huang, "Or rather, are Miss Su, Qin Shi Huang, and even this fake medicine dealer Mr. Tang, all historical figures? Are they truly the obsessions of those historical figures who actually existed?"
"And Miss Yu, you're the one in charge of them?"
"This...this...this is too absurd!"
Upon hearing his name called, Qin Shi Huang remained seated calmly and composed, while Su Daji raised her head slightly and returned a charming smile. Only Tang Sanzang appeared somewhat restrained and protested with a wronged tone, "I've already told you, I'm really not a fake medicine dealer."
Not a single person voiced any objection.
Wei Er: ...Hehehe...
If this isn't a dream, then you really aren't a fake drug dealer, are you?
There was once an elixir of immortality placed before me, and I actually hesitated...
