Daily (1)
February 9, 2225 in the official calendar.
Half a year has passed since Nuwa was defeated, and the alliance is about to usher in the Spring Festival of the ancient lunar calendar again.
"When did you get together? There's no news at all!"
You Yao was shouting loudly, and even the aroma of the hotpot on New Year's Eve couldn't stop him from eating.
As a former member of the True Object Group, after the defeat of the brain worm, You Yao naturally regained his freedom.
He was originally a minor character in the organization. By some strange coincidence, he became close to Shang Jingyan and was noticed by the brain worm. Therefore, his subconscious was disturbed in the later period and he stopped contacting Shang Jingyan.
It's just that his activities are mostly in the Exile Galaxy, and the brain worm's intervention is limited, so he is not manipulated to do shockingly bad things like the blue ants.
Now that the organization has been disbanded, the black magic cast on him has disappeared, and he is happily reconnecting with the monk Jingyan again.
That's why he is at today's hotpot party.
Shang Jingyan and Pei Yi were asked about this. The former was too lazy to respond and switched the program channel on the screen. The latter smiled and said, "It was after the interview with Time last year. I asked Bai first, and Director Shang agreed at that time."
"It's been that long!" You Yao exclaimed, and said, "It seems that you two have been calling each other 'Director Shang' and 'Manager Pei' just for fun."
Shang Jingyan played the Spring Festival Gala songs and dances, letting the festive and lively BGM fill the entire room. She sat back at the round table with satisfaction, and snatched a piece of beef that You Yao was about to take, and put it into Pei Yi's dish.
You Yao: “…”
The hot pot was boiling, and the steam was billowing. Ao Qingxue sighed, "I actually had a premonition a long time ago. When Yanyan told me yesterday, I didn't feel surprised. I just didn't expect that the first person to break our group name would be our group leader."
Yun Yongxue was picking up a piece of meat and putting it into his mouth. Hearing this, he bit his chopsticks slightly, but he no longer felt too much resentment or melancholy in his heart.
If one had to say, he and Shang Jingyan were more in tune with each other artistically and spiritually. Yun Yongxue knew that he could never be as considerate and attentive to every aspect of Shang Jingyan's life as Pei Yi was.
Director Shang and Manager Pei started talking about love, and there were indeed signs of it a long time ago.
First, Shang Jingyan's outfits occasionally have some soft styles, then she wears a love-shaped meal that is obviously handmade when she goes to the studio, and later there are couples' styles for her optical computer protective cover and some electronic devices...
These things are obviously Pei Yi's style.
It was not until yesterday when Shang Jingyan mentioned to her friends that "her boyfriend Pei Yi would prepare the meal" when inviting them to a New Year's dinner that the speculation was confirmed. She said it lightly, but for a man as thick-skinned as You Yao, it was like a miracle.
"The craftsmanship is quite good." Hua Feitian commented briefly - in fact, it was great that she could say it was good.
She didn't even realize that she had been eating non-stop. She secretly thought that the person she would fall in love with next time must have better cooking skills than Pei Yi in order to be considered better than Shang Jingyan.
A burst of praise immediately followed Hua Feitian's words. Pei Yi felt a little embarrassed, so he coughed and said, "I'll go get the fried crispy meat."
He left the table and went into the kitchen. The white smoke curled up, making the noise outside seem hazy.
When I put the last piece of crispy meat into the oil-absorbing paper, a hand stretched out from the side and attacked it: "Oh, it's so hot."
I saw Shang Jingyan sneak into the kitchen at some point, picked up the crispy meat, blew on it a few times, put it in her mouth, and her eyes narrowed slightly because of the delicious smell.
Pei Yi was amused and took her hand to rinse it under the faucet: "You didn't get burned, did you?"
"Not bad." Shang Jingyan answered in a serious and formal tone. Pei Yi observed her eyes - sure enough, this guy was a little drunk.
Shang Jingyan's alcohol tolerance is a mystery. As long as she wants, she can drink thousands of cups without getting drunk. But if she restrains all her mental strength, her alcohol tolerance is very average. I think she wanted to get tipsy at a friend's party today, so she "actively" got drunk.
Pei Yi picked up the tray, but Shang Jingyan leaned on him, rubbed his forehead and said, "Those people are waiting to make trouble for you. Wait a little longer until they are drunk enough."
"Isn't this truth or dare?" Pei Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"It's just so childish." Shang Jingyan spread his hands.
Pei Yi then put down the tray and opened the small door - the layout of their house was designed by Shang Jingyan, with the main theme of transparency and mystery, and almost every room was connected by strange passages.
The kitchen leads to a small balcony, where the two of them would sometimes have a barbecue facing the night sky.
Shang Jingyan smuggled the crispy meat and two glasses of sparkling drinks to the small balcony.
When the two returned to the living room when the moon was at its highest point in the sky, there were already several drunks on the floor.
Hua Feitian was determined to learn from Shang Jingyan to withdraw her spiritual power. She was even drunker than her and was now unconscious. She sat upright on the sofa with a serious face, muttering to herself, "Where's the Su Rou?"
Shang Jingyan pretended not to hear - most of the small plate of crispy meat had already gone into her stomach.
There were only a few people left who could play Truth or Dare again. One of them, Qu Licong, touched his overstuffed stomach and finally decided to give up embarrassing Pei Yi. He just asked a question that interested him: "Director Shang, will you make it public? Will you get married?"
She was indeed very curious about this gossip. Luo Zhiyu and others beside her also pricked up their ears.
——After knowing that love is the mainstream imposed on humans by brain worms, interstellar people need to re-examine the trends in the market.
There are reports that the divorce rate across the league has risen to an unprecedented peak in recent days.
In fact, the marriage rate in the Alliance was originally very low, and marriage was more like an ancient relic from the single-planet era. Most people would not register their marriages even if they wanted to get married and raise children.
Now that the marriage rate, which was already at a precarious level, has dropped, perhaps the institution of marriage will completely disappear in the near future.
——Shang Jingyan would certainly not choose marriage. She had never considered this option in her previous life.
She said bluntly: "Neither of us wants to get married. But we haven't decided whether to make it public or not."
Zhang Nian touched his chin thoughtfully; "I need to think about it carefully."
In the eyes of the public, Shang Jingyan is labeled not only as a "horror style" but also as an "anti-love style", even though she has shot works with love elements before. Her position against brainworms determines the public's view.
If we choose to make it public, some fans may be dissatisfied. Especially now that Shang Jingyan's popularity is still at its peak and she has not returned to her daily life at all.
But to be honest, even if Shang Jingyan immediately became a playboy and changed a dozen boyfriends and girlfriends every day, it would not have any impact on her. The only one who would be condemned would be the one she chose.
The group of people then played for a long time and then fell into a deep sleep amid the sound of fireworks and firecrackers of the Spring Festival.
The only people who were completely sober at the scene were Pei Yi and Qu Licong, who refused to drink alcohol for the sake of his throat. Even Shang Jingyan couldn't drink anymore.
There is no need to worry about these people. Shang Jingyan's villa is big enough and robots will assign beds to guests and clean the house.
Pei Yi carried Shang Zuigui up to the second floor. The latter fell from his arms when passing by the sofa upstairs and sat in front of the coffee table, tossing around.
"Are you looking for this?" Pei Yi held back his laughter and took out a bag of dried fish from Shang Jingyan's blind spot.
"Yes!" Shang Jingyan tapped his palm, "That's it."
She drank so much but ate so little, she was actually a little hungry now.
This is a snack exclusively for Shang Jingyan. Since she likes seafood, but Lan Heyue does not always have fresh seafood, Pei Yi baked a can of dried fish.
He looked up the information carefully and found that the meat of this fish has a special texture. It tastes better when dried than when fresh, and has no fishy smell.
Pei Yi watched Shang Jingyan pick up a piece of dried fish and put it in his mouth, as if he saw a big cat eating.
After eating snacks, taking a shower and going to bed, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
Shang Jingyan finally sobered up, and the two of them huddled together, talking while leaning on their rabbit doll pillows.
It was all meaningless nonsense, but Shang Jingyan never got tired of it. She wasn't like this at first. The boyfriends she had dated in her previous life were all passionate types, and they were never long-lasting like this.
Being with Pei Yi seems more like a natural thing.
Just like Pei Yi, he had left a mark in her life without knowing when. He was not strong, but gentle as water, but he could not be ignored. Shang Jingyan turned around and saw him waiting for her with a smile.
"After the first day of the Lunar New Year, I want to travel."
Shang Jingyan pulled the ears of the white rabbit in his arms and said casually.
Although she said in her updates last year that she was preparing for her next work, her fans couldn't choose one, and neither could she.
Now that she is already a star-studded dream builder, and has the halo of being the "youngest", she should be cautious with her first work after being awarded five stars.
So it has been delayed until now. Shang Jingyan needs to think carefully and sort out his distracting thoughts.
——People will lose themselves in a situation where there is fire, oil, and flowers.
Even if Shang Jingyan is not really eighteen years old, has she ever seen such a grand scene of being surrounded by the entire alliance when she was in her forties in her previous life?
Director Shang at that time could be said to be internationally renowned, but he was definitely not as popular as he is now.
She had to admit that she was also affected by the environment. An impetuous mood is always the most detrimental to a work.
Therefore, Shang Jingyan deliberately kept a low profile, posting updates as infrequently as before, and even less frequently appearing in public. The fans could sense her intention, and they also gradually cooled down.
Shang Jingyan plans to take a trip to relax herself.
Pei Yi could always coordinate his schedule with Shang Jingyan. He nodded and asked, "Have you decided where to go?"
"I've thought of some of it." Shang Jingyan said, "On my birthday, we can arrive at the Rose Heart. Xue Jiang is planning to build a new horror theme park. I want to go and see it."
In February, in addition to the ancient Spring Festival, there is also Shang Jingyan’s birthday.
At this time last year, she was so busy that she didn't even celebrate her birthday. Pei Yi just made her a bowl of noodles.
"Okay." Pei Yi smiled, "I haven't been to the horror park for a long time."
Shang Jingyan raised his voice slightly; "Then it's decided! Go to sleep."
She stood up and kissed her lover, the corners of her lips curled up, "Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year." Pei Yi interlocked his fingers with her, hugged her and covered her with a blanket, "Good night."
A few days later, February 13th.
The entire planet of Rose Heart is almost spring-like all year round. When Shang Jingyan and Pei Yi arrived, it was drizzling in the area below the star port.
Both of them were dressed in masks and hats, and they dragged their luggage down the port escalator in a low-key manner.
Shang Jingyan looked at the couples of tourists around him and suddenly thought of an interesting point: "I have been to Rose Heart countless times, but today is the first time I have come here to meet its theme."
That is, "couples".
But then again, when people mention Rose Heart, the first thing that comes to mind may be horror style.
Shang Jingyan clearly felt that there were more tourists than before, many of whom were from the main galaxy. There were also many newly developed tourist spots on the electronic map in the hall, some of which she had never even heard of.
Rose Heart is a big planet. Even if she has been there many times, it is impossible for her to visit all its landforms. In fact, ordinary people may not be able to appreciate all the beautiful scenery of the planet they live on in their entire lives.
The location of the new theme park is a newly developed area.
It belongs to the "Chinese Horror Series" with the theme of "ancient village + tomb". It occupies an entire mountain, and a burial space is dug out in the mountain.
The main gate is at the foot of the mountain. There are many strangely shaped sedan chairs parked at the entrance. They are actually sightseeing cable cars. Tourists can feel the terrifying and eerie atmosphere from afar.
There is a simple puzzle main line in the amusement park. You can get a small gift by checking in all the cards in the electronic book.
The sky of the holographic projection was covered with dark clouds, with lightning flashing from time to time, and raindrops as big as beans hitting the ground. The muddy ground effect was extremely realistic, and tourists would occasionally check to see if their shoes were dirty.
Pei Yi looked at the crowd and thought of a question: "Will we be recognized?"
Shang Jingyan's face is so famous now that even if he wears sunglasses and a mask, he will be recognized in minutes.
Previously, they were just passing by a public place, but now they were going to a horror park. It was no exaggeration to say that if you caught a hundred people there, fifty of them would be loyal fans of Shang Jingyan.
At that time, she will single-handedly cause traffic jams in the theme park and turn the scene into her own autograph session.
Shang Jingyan had already thought about it, raised his chin and said, "We can buy that."
She was referring to the surrounding shops at the entrance, where many Nuo opera masks were displayed, as well as ancient costumes and ancient Hanfu. Many tourists chose to buy a set of clothes to make themselves more in line with the environment.
Pei Yi imitated Shang Jingyan's habitual action and tapped his palm: "Good idea."
So, twenty minutes later.
Shang Jingyan walked out of the fitting room wearing a dark green round-necked robe with flowing patterns and a devil mask on his face.
In an instant, the attention of everyone around her was attracted by her, and some even uttered low exclamations.
Her long hair was tied up with a golden crown, and the bead tassels hanging from the rope of the ghost mask swayed in her hair; she had wrist guards on her wrists and brown leather boots on her feet, which were light and simple.
With every gesture and movement, even with a ferocious face, he looked graceful and elegant.
Behind her, Pei Yi was dressed similarly to her, except that his round-necked robe was light blue, and his slightly curly hair was half-covered, giving him an exotic vibe.
Pei Yi met the astonished gazes and pondered: "Will this make me more conspicuous?"
Shang Jingyan: “.”
Oops, that was a mistake.
She also heard a customer say in confusion:
"Why do you feel strangely familiar?"
"Maybe some internet celebrity..."
One of them was covered in all her works' peripherals and was obviously a fanatic among fans.
Shang Jingyan thought about it, and quietly used her mental power to connect to the equipment in the theme park - all the equipment in the Rose Heart originated from the first-generation models customized for her by Xue Jiang, and she could use them all.
Then, the next moment, several ghost projections suddenly appeared at the door of the store. They were pale and thin, and suddenly appeared out of thin air, scaring the surrounding tourists to scream.
People in the store were also attracted:
"Oh my god! NPC? Chase after them!"
"Strange... It's different from the guide I read. Didn't it say that there are no plots near places like the entrance? Did it get revised?"
"Never mind, never mind, go and check in for the conversation!"
The customers' eyes lit up and they immediately forgot about the good-looking couple passing by and rushed to the door.
Shang Jingyan hid his achievements and fame, pulled Pei Yi out from the side door, and walked up the mountain path: "Let's go and take the ghost sedan chair."
