Chapter 242 The Movie King (Thirteen)
The next day, Lu Lingjun didn't ask Gu Yanjing when she arrived, and Gu Yanjing didn't say anything either.
Lu Lingjun had his personal assistant buy them breakfast, and after eating, they went out for a walk.
There weren't many foreigners, and the streets looked rather empty.
"**Popularity**." Gu Yanjing took a bite of ice cream.
"Then let's go back to China. We can't speak the language here, and the food isn't good either." Lu Lingjun didn't like it here much either.
Perhaps due to a fundamental difference in their thinking, Lu Lingjun disliked this place.
"Okay, let's go back then." Gu Yanjing nodded, swallowed the last bite of the crispy cone, and sent a message to Gu Congxin, asking him to buy a ticket and return to China.
Gu Congxin, whom I just sent to you: ...Damn it.
I've only been flying for a dozen hours, and you're telling me to go back right now?
You really are a dog.
Although she secretly wished she could chop Gu Yanjing to pieces, she still humbly replied with a cute emoji.
Gu Congxin: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will buy it right away. I will be waiting for Your Majesty at the airport."
Gu Yanjing told Lu Lingjun that he had bought the tickets. Lu Lingjun immediately sent messages to his assistant and the project manager who had come with him, asking them to handle the next steps, as he would not be staying there.
The two arrived at the airport an hour later, and again booked first class. For more than ten hours, Gu Yanjing leaned on Lu Lingjun's shoulder to catch up on sleep. When they got off the plane back in China, they were photographed by passersby and paparazzi.
There was no way around it; Lu Lingjun and Gu Yanjing were just too conspicuous, drawing everyone's attention at a glance.
When the two returned to the apartment, it was already trending on the internet.
Director Zhuang just released the first trailer for "The Great Emperor". The magnificent scenes and the ups and downs of the monarch's life from his youth to the emperor who eventually ruled the world immediately captured everyone's attention.
Damn, who is this handsome guy?
Is that their family's "flower vase," Brother Gu?
No way, what happened to Gu Ge being just a pretty face? Where did this acting come from? Did he pay for it? Even whales don't play like this.
However, it must be said that while netizens were complaining, they were also saving and rewatching the videos, drooling, and finally unable to resist licking the screen.
Damn, this guy's looks are absolutely irresistible.
Damn man.
Gu Yanjing posted her fourth Weibo post since arriving here that evening.
The first post was a screenshot of a player using the Chinese server's "**" (likely referring to a specific character or skill), the second was a screenshot of a player using the Chinese server's "Han Xin" (likely referring to a specific character or skill), and the third was a clarification video posted by Gu Congxin. Gu Yanjing found it annoying and deleted it directly.
He posted a screenshot of the Chinese server's Lightning Mouse today.
Number one in the Chinese server.
satisfy.
However, the fans who originally planned to see Uncle's beautiful photos were shocked to discover that it was a lightning rodent.
Isn't this the standard setup for a jungler in the King of Glory?
Looking at their uncle's other Weibo posts, sure enough, they're all King of Glory accounts.
Haha, what kind of weirdo are they idolizing? He's the older brother, and they're the uncles.
Theirs are beautiful photos; theirs are screenshots from the Chinese version of the game.
He's a complete oddball.
However, appearance is justice.
Countless people are asking Gu Yanjing to post a photo on his Weibo. If that's not possible, then a photo from his sugar daddy would be fine too, or even a selfie from his sugar daddy would be acceptable.
All they care about is whether it looks good.
Gu Yanjing's days suddenly returned to normal, and the second episode of the variety show was released on Friday as scheduled.
Fans waited in front of the platform in advance and almost couldn't open the webpage. Fortunately, the programmers worked well this time and prevented the website from crashing.
But what happened to buying daily necessities? Gu Ge, Zhu Que, are you doing a mukbang? You can't finish your food and you're even giving it to the phoenix next to you. It's just too cute.
They didn't want to see anyone else in the villa anymore; they just wanted to see Zhuque and Fenghuang being all lovey-dovey, eating and drinking together.
After eating and drinking, Gu Yanjing ran out of money. Then, well, never mind, they're like gods, they can't compare, and they can't compare when it comes to making money either.
However, I can't stand it when RMB is put in garbage bags.
They really wanted to do that too, but alas, the garbage bags were ready, but the money wasn't.
The editing for this episode was quite fast; throughout the entire episode, Gu Yanjing was eating, shopping, and buying things.
On the other side of the villa, there were occasional arguments and fights. In the past, they probably would have enjoyed watching it, but now, nothing was more entertaining than Zhuque's mukbang (eating broadcast).
It wasn't until Nan Wan'er and Tun Tian blew up the kitchen that they finally turned their attention to the villa.
This couple is something else! They managed to blow up the kitchen while cooking; that's not something an ordinary person could do.
No, Devourer of Heaven is not human.
However, Zheng Ying looked so cute, almost wanting to bite her husband because she was so hungry.
Bai Yu and An Jing got along very well, but Liu Tingting was causing trouble and acting up the whole time. She was incredibly spoiled and expected everyone to treat her like a little princess and fawn over her.
That's insane! I don't know where that face comes from.
I didn't even want to watch it, I just skipped it. I'll watch their uncle's show first, then I'll go back and scold him.
The episode ended with Gu Yanjing packing up fish and driving home after finishing his meal. However, sharp-eyed netizens clearly noticed that there was actually a large truck blocking the way.
After watching this episode, netizens rewatched it while taking to Weibo to criticize Liu Tingting and He Zigui. The two of them appeared on the show, but instead of gaining more followers, they were thoroughly criticized and even trended on Weibo for their negative comments.
Liu Tingting is acting like an idiot, still crying on Weibo, not knowing what she did wrong, why everyone is scolding and slandering her, and whether someone hired online trolls.
That's shameless; it directly accuses Gu Yanjing of hiring online trolls to smear her.
Gu Yanjing saw it while browsing Weibo and replied directly: "You?"
You think you're worthy of my hiring of online trolls? Wouldn't it be better to use that money to buy some meat or skin?
Liu Tingting was immediately ridiculed by netizens, and her agency contacted her agent to delete the Weibo post.
The online reaction has become even worse.
Liu Tingting became depressed. She was angry that Gu Yanjing had so many fans that people were attacking her, and she was also angry that her boyfriend He Zigui didn't say a word on Weibo when she was being attacked.
They said they would make it public after this show aired, didn't they?
Is this a public stance?
She called He Zigui dozens of times, but his phone was always off, and he wouldn't even reply to her messages. Liu Tingting was so angry that she smashed her phone.
He Zigui, who was caught in her deadly chain of attacks, is also suffering now.
In his past life, his excellent performance in the "The Great Emperor" crew earned him a role in Director Zhuang's new film "A Flaw in a Perfection," and he ultimately rose to fame with this film, winning the Best Newcomer Award.
But what did he just see Director Zhuang post on Weibo?
The male lead for the new movie "A Minor Flaw in a Perfection" was chosen directly from Gu Yanjing, and even the audition was conducted without prior notice.
In his past life, he had to go through numerous auditions and fight his way to get the second male lead role.
Why is Gu Yanjing the male lead from the very beginning?
Is this the power of capitalists?
Does Gu Yanjing have the resources behind him? Why can't he?
He didn't understand things in his past life and took so many detours; he won't do that in this life.
Thinking of this, He Zigui opened his phone and dialed a number. The call was answered immediately, and it was a young woman's voice.
"Honey, you finally called me!" The woman's voice was charming and seductive, clearly not that of a man.
However, He Zigui now has other options.
However, He Zigui never understood why people were so devoted to him in his past life: it was because what you can't have always stirs your heart.
Once you get it, things will be different.
Gu Yanjing received a message saying that filming for the fourth and fifth episodes of the show would begin tomorrow. After replying to the message, he and Lu Lingjun packed up and headed over.
It's the same villa as before, but this time we're just gathering at the villa.
Today was unusual; He Zigui arrived very late, completely covered up, and his face was abnormally pale. The director frowned and told He Zigui to quickly get his makeup done, so as not to scare people with that deadpan look.
He Zigui was scolded by the director, and with a gloomy face, he followed his assistant to the dressing room.
A group of people are tasked with a mission at an amusement park today, and the mission will culminate in a final competition.
The director kept an eye on Gu Yanjing and Lu Lingjun's expressions throughout the entire process, and breathed a sigh of relief after realizing that neither of them had said anything wrong.
Fortunately, she was angry, but she also refused.
It has to be said that these two are much easier to please than some big-name celebrities.
Upon arriving at the amusement park, the director gathered everyone together and assigned them their tasks for the day.
Today's task still requires you to find different task cards yourself. After completing the task cards, you will receive different rewards.
However, there are only three slots for each task, which means that some people will definitely not get some tasks.
After the group of guests received their tasks, Bai Yu spoke first: "Director, this is not fair. Zhuque, Fenghuang, and Tuntian are not ordinary people. If they use magic, we definitely can't beat them."
Zheng Wei nodded in agreement: "Yeah, yeah, director, I can't beat them."
He Zigui and Liu Tingting stood silently to one side, like two invisible people.
They've been embroiled in scandals lately, and all their other gigs and endorsements have been cancelled. Now all they have left is this variety show, which they're determined not to give up, but they also absolutely won't dare to cause any trouble.
Quiet as a chicken, that perfectly describes their current state.
“I think it’s just a game, there’s no need for magic or anything. Director, give me the mission card from your hat.” Lu Lingjun glanced at it casually, walked up to the director, and held out his hand.
The director remained silent, feigning ignorance, and said, "...What mission card? Didn't I read this mission card to you?"
Lu Lingjun smiled and said, "The card in your hat is showing. You're too short when you sit down, so it's easy to see."
Director: ......Ten-point critical hit.
"Take this and get out of here." The director angrily shoved the task card into Lu Lingjun's hand and waved him away.
This year's guests are really hard to manage; I'm on tenterhooks.
Lu Lingjun's mission card was to complete the Giant Swing Challenge, which would reward him with a water gun.
"Vermilion Bird, Giant Swing." Lu Lingjun showed the mission card to Gu Yanjing.
Gu Yan glanced at him in surprise: "Go by yourself."
Lu Lingjun took Gu Yanjing's hand: "Zhuque, I'm afraid of heights, I've mentioned it before."
Others: ...Boss, I remember you are a phoenix.
Phoenixes can fly, right?
Gu Yanjing shuddered and forcefully pulled his hand back: "Be normal, don't force me to beat you up."
Lu Lingjun's lips twitched, but he quickly regained his composure: "The mission card says that two people need to go together."
Gu Yan glanced at the production team, which made them feel even more pressured, before finally following Lu Lingjun to do the task.
There are quite a few tasks today. After completing the tasks, we need to grab our equipment and head to the haunted house to fight and eliminate others while clearing levels and winning.
It wasn't until 9 p.m. that the group of guests finally finished filming for the day. They returned to the villa prepared by the production team to rest for the night. The task for the next day was to work for free and earn money, and they couldn't reveal their identities. If they were recognized, they would be deducted five yuan.
If they recognize one, they'll deduct five yuan, even if the person has no money.
Furthermore, the workplace is determined by lottery.
Gu Yan glanced at Lu Lingjun and stopped Phoenix, who was about to draw a prize: "I'll go."
Lu Lingjun was stunned: "Zhuque, you're going?" Aren't you afraid that Gu Qiqi will do something underhanded to you and turn all your luck into bad luck?
Although Gu Yanjing's cultivation level is usually so high that he is completely unaffected by things like luck, he is basically destined to miss out on things like drawing lots, winning lotteries, buying lottery tickets, and opening bottle caps.
"What, I can't go?" Gu Yan asked in surprise.
"Sure, why not? I'll go with you." Lu Lingjun gave in instantly when he met Gu Yanjing's surprised look.
Then, Gu Yanjing was assigned the task of being a cleaner, and she had to pick up trash today.
Gu Yan was surprised: ......
Lu Lingjun: ......
Lu Lingjun: "Let's go settle accounts with Gu Qiqi later."
Gu Yan was shocked: "Heh, you brat." He turned around and burned her to death.
Nan Wan'er wanted to laugh but was afraid of being beaten to death, so she could only hold it in, until her stomach hurt.
Hahaha, damn it! His Majesty and Lu Lingjun went to pick up trash. She can't take it anymore. The scene is too beautiful to imagine.
Lu Lingjun: "Go and call the little orange cat over."
Gu Yan asked in surprise, "Why did you call him over?"
Lu Lingjun: "Have him come over and pick up the trash for us. Didn't you say you never keep idle people around?"
Gu Yan was surprised: "Aren't you a free person too?"
Lu Lingjun laughed: "How can I be considered an idle person? I am Zhuque's Daoist partner, His Majesty's Empress."
How can he be compared to those little things?
Nan Wan'er: ...Damn it, we were supposed to be picking up trash, what's with you two showing off your love here?
I feel so awful. I need a big kiss, a hug, and to be lifted up high by the heavens to feel better.
"Let's go, let's go draw some missions too." Tuntian ruffled Nan Wan'er's big curly hair and kissed the girl's rosy cheeks.
As a result, I ended up with a mouthful of blush on my cheeks.
hehe.
I'll talk to Gu Congxin about going to an ancient world, preferably one where people use cosmetics, so I won't have to eat a mouthful of makeup.
I'm afraid I might be poisoned to death one day without even knowing it.
