☆、Chapter 166: Positive Reviews
Xing Yuduo took it, walked into the east room, and closed the door.
"I'll help you watch outside." Banxia shouted from outside the door, then moved a small stool and sat down against the wall.
Although she didn't know why, from the brief time they spent together in her previous life, she could feel that Yu Yu was a very insecure person.
He was afraid of someone suddenly appearing behind him, afraid of doors that weren't closed tightly, and he had to sleep in a corner, like a cat, preferably with walls on three sides...
She didn't understand these habits when she was a child, but after she grew up and experienced many things, she realized that they were all manifestations of extreme insecurity.
Because she had also been through that time before, surrounded by enemies and hiding from place to place, even the meow of a cat could make her panic.
Therefore, when she thought about how she had actually left Yu Yu behind that evening and let him go home alone, causing him to encounter some unknown danger and be taken away by someone, she felt indescribably guilty.
I must protect him well this time! Be a good sister! Banxia thought firmly.
…
The competition is over.
All the programs in the second episode have been performed.
The host opened the final round of voting. Five minutes later, the results came out. Tang Qin's team lost to Lu Congxu's team with a low vote of 450.
The difference of one hundred votes on the big screen was quite embarrassing. The two teams stood on the stage, and Tang Qin barely controlled her expression to prevent herself from losing composure.
The next step is to vote for group members. She must maintain a good state in order to get a higher number of votes so as not to be eliminated.
"Congratulations to our Actor Lu's team for winning and advancing. It seems that everyone likes your performance very much. I also think the acting between the male and female protagonists is very exciting. Then I want to ask Actor Lu, when you were acting with Jasmine, did you secretly give her some special treatment to make her act so well?" The host seized the last opportunity to create a topic.
Lu Congxu knew that the program crew wanted to take advantage of the popularity of his relationship, so he avoided similar topics throughout the entire program because he didn't want others to think there were unspoken rules.
Now that Wen Mianyu has won the victory with his own strength, he doesn't mind relaxing for a while.
Lu Congxu took the microphone and smiled at the camera, "There's no need to give her special treatment. She's already very good. But if she wants, we can give her special treatment anytime."
"Ah..." There was a cheer from the audience.
"The same goes for other team members." Lu Congxu added.
"Wow," the host exclaimed, "Mr. Lu is really a favorite. Okay, Mr. Lu and the students will go back to rest. We're going to move on to the final round of canvassing for votes."
Lu Congxu and his team members thanked the audience and left the stage from the side.
The final vote-gathering is for individual votes, and the three with the lowest popularity are eliminated.
Wen Mianyu was familiar with no one in Tang Qin's group, so naturally she didn't care about the result. After getting off the stage, she went to the lounge with Lu Congxu to remove her makeup.
Along with the makeup artist came the assistant director of the program team, who brought a group of staff members to bring midnight snacks, fruit plates and drinks.
"Thank you all for your hard work, teachers. Please eat something to fill your stomach and don't starve." The assistant director walked up to Lu Congxu with a smile.
"Thank you, Director Wang." Lu Congxu thanked him.
"No way. We should thank Mr. Lu. The recording intensity of these two programs was very high. It was Mr. Lu who did not mind the hard work and fatigue, so the program was recorded so smoothly." The assistant director complimented.
"Director Wang, you're too kind. This is all part of my job." Lu Congxu didn't think it was a big deal.
With his status, he should be the center of attention in the circle. However, nowadays, all celebrities with a little status have a bad temper.
But Lu Congxu has always been calm and never interferes as long as it is within his job responsibilities.
The assistant director also admired him very much, "Teacher Lu, eat slowly, and go back and have a good rest after eating. Our next recording will be in a week."
"Okay." Lu Congxu responded.
…
While removing her makeup, Wen Mianyu drank a cup of milk tea, barely filling herself up with water.
Afterwards, the two left the satellite TV building together and took a car back.
The next episode of the show will be recorded a week later. They have a lot of schedules this week, including a double magazine shoot, roadshows and publicity.
Director Lin had high expectations for "Youth" and spent a lot of money on various publicity. He also took on two variety shows, one of which was to be the head of the professional jury on the night of the final of "This is the Actor".
As the male and female protagonists, Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu will naturally help out.
For the next entire month, both of them were busy, working hard on promotion and roadshows on the one hand, and recording the show on the other.
After six episodes of the show, Wen Mianyu has lost a lot of weight.
Lu Congxu felt very distressed when he saw this, so he asked Cheng An to stew some supplements every day for Wen Mianyu to drink to nourish her body.
Time flies and it’s the day of the finals.
Since the program was aired, it has topped the list of online topics and ratings, and its popularity has remained high. Naturally, the day of the finals attracted much attention.
In order to prevent the news from leaking, the program team adopted a live broadcast format for the finals, so that all netizens who like the program can know the champion at the first time, and avoid the leakage of the recording, so that the audience will not have any suspense.
The most feared thing about live streaming is accidents, so everyone needs to treat it with caution. From the host memorizing lines to the guests rehearsing, they are much more attentive than in previous episodes.
In the past, there was only one rehearsal, but the program team arranged three. To be on the safe side, it took a lot of time to go through the whole process.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the live broadcast was about to begin. The guests, who had put on their makeup, took their seats on the stage, and the host took the time to memorize the final lines at the side of the stage.
At 7:30, the live broadcast began. The host walked onto the stage in gorgeous clothes and gave an opening speech.
"Welcome everyone to This Is the Actor. We have gone through eight episodes and eliminated many outstanding students, but we also left a group of elites. Today, four groups of eight students are about to have the final PK. Let us first welcome our elite mentors and students to the stage." The host led the applause.
The background music sounded radically, and four instructors led the students to the stage from both sides and stood in two rows on the stage.
The collection of handsome men and beautiful women is very eye-catching. When the camera sweeps over them, all of them are good-looking.
"Today is the final episode. After all this time of loving and hating each other on this show, I'm sure you'll be very reluctant to leave, right?" The host handed the microphone to Lu Congxu and introduced the first topic, "I wonder if Mr. Lu will be very reluctant to leave the students?"
There is actually a small trap in this question, because Wen Mianyu is one of Lu Congxu's students.
If Lu Congxu answered yes, then it would mean that he was indirectly reluctant to part with Wen Mianyu.
Of course, Lu Congxu couldn't answer no.
"We've been together for nearly two months, and we've developed feelings for each other. It's natural to feel reluctant to part ways." Lu Congxu held the microphone with a gentle hand, "But we can still get together after the competition."
"Yes, everyone can get together, but we, the audience, will hardly see you all together in the future." The host sighed with feigned regret and then turned to ask Wen Mianyu, "I heard that Jasmine drew the script for both rounds of this performance. I'm curious on behalf of the audience, what kind of story is it?"
"They are two very interesting stories. One of them is about rebirth. I've written several scripts for the show that are of this theme, but each theme is different. This time, the story focuses on forbidden love and the spirit of adventure. The heroine and hero have an uncle-nephew relationship that outsiders can't understand. Of course, they are not related by blood."
Wen Mianyu summarized the script she was going to perform in a few words.
The second one was not mentioned, leaving a suspense.
"Okay, I'll be looking forward to it." The host clapped his hands in support and then went to interview the next group.
The time for live broadcast programs is very strict. The interview time for each guest must be within the specified range and cannot exceed it.
While the host was interviewing the other three groups, Wen Mianyu went over the script in his mind again.
Soon, the instructor's introduction process was completed, and the host asked the instructor to take his seat on the stage, while the students went backstage to prepare.
Wen Mianyu was chosen to perform in the second group twice this time. She rehearsed with her teammates backstage for more than an hour before the previous group finished their performance and it was her turn.
Wen Mianyu and her teammate Qian Jun were making preparations behind the scenes.
In front, the host announces the show.
"This is the ninth season finals of Actors. First round, two teams are competing for 'Back to the 90s.' Performers: Wen Mianyu and Qian Jun. The competition begins!"
…
Mu Qingyou felt the sensation, and the first word that came to her mind was heat.
My whole body felt as if it was burning, the heat was astonishing, and my head was dizzy, as if I was being roasted in the flames of hell.
She struggled to open her eyes, trying to take a look at the scene around her, but she only saw a blurry figure.
Mu Qingyou's limbs gradually regained some sensation, and he felt a slight shaking under his body.
The noisy sounds of hawkers around me penetrated my ears, it was very loud, and the smell of sweat mixed with the smell of various foods between my nostrils was very unpleasant. The only thing that could relieve my irritability was the wisp of fragrance in it.
She had smelled the light mint scent for seventeen years. It was so familiar, how could she have remembered it wrong?
Mu Qingyou's heart moved, and she suddenly opened her eyes. Then she was so shocked by the face that appeared very close to her that she was speechless.
Uncle...
No! It's my young uncle.
Mu Yushen in front of him still had a hint of childishness between his eyebrows and eyes. His hair was shaved flat as soldiers must do, without any decoration, but it could not hide his handsomeness. Instead, it made his face look even more clear and elegant.
Mu Qingyou reached out and touched it. In an instant, countless complicated emotions surged in his heart, and finally turned into a determination to regain what he had lost and to hold it tightly in his hand.
Even if it's just a dream.
Then Mu Qingyou discovered that this did not seem to be a dream. She saw that her hands were much smaller than she had imagined.
The thin palm was pressed against Mu Yushen's handsome face, and the contrast between the burning heat and the coolness was very obvious.
Mu Qingyou pulled her hand back blankly and looked at it carefully in front of her eyes. How could this be the hand of her when she was 27 years old?
At this moment, she felt a chill on her forehead. It was Mu Yushen's hand covering her forehead.
The man paused briefly to test the temperature, then withdrew his hand. "It's still a fever. I've finished the medicine everyone gave me. We'll be in Jiangcheng soon. I'll take you to see a doctor then."
The voice was deep and magnetic, with a hint of coldness.
Familiar tone, familiar words.
Mu Qingyou closed her eyes.
Her memories of her life began when she was ten years old. The first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Mu Yushen.
The situation was exactly the same as it is now, even what Mu Yushen said and did were exactly the same.
Is she...doing it again?
Without giving Mu Qingyou time to think, the wet bottle mouth touched her lips.
Mu Qingyou was startled and subconsciously looked up at Mu Yushen, and met his cold eyes as clear as a pool of water.
"This is warm water." The tone sounded gentle.
Mu Qingyou opened her mouth and drank it obediently, her eyes reluctant to leave Mu Yushen. She stared at the man as if copying him, her eyes full of affection that was about to overflow.
Fortunately, she was sick with a fever, so even if she looked at it bluntly and explicitly, Mu Yushen would only think that she was in a daze due to illness.
"Just bear with it, the train will be here in ten minutes." The man really thought she was sick and confused, so his tone became a little gentler.
Mu Yushen is most gentle when she is sick or injured.
Mu Qingyou has been with him for seventeen years and knows his character too well.
Taking advantage of this tenderness and indulgence, she reached out and opened Mu Yushen's military coat, snuggled into Mu Yushen's arms like a kitten, and pressed her cheek against Mu Yushen's chest, feeling very safe.
Lan Meixin's day and night torture disappeared in an instant. With the comfort of her uncle's body temperature, even the most terrible things could be easily forgotten.
Mu Qingyou is only ten years old now. She is a little thinner than her peers and her body is very light. Mu Yushen has a strong physique, so this weight seems nothing to him.
He gently placed his hand on Mu Qingyou's back and said, "If you're sleepy, sleep a little longer."
"Hmm..." Mu Qingyou agreed vaguely, thinking secretly in his heart.
The current situation made her realize that this was the year when she and Mu Yushen first met.
She was ten years old and Mu Yushen was twenty years old.
Mu Qingyou didn't remember anything before she was ten years old. When she woke up, she saw this scene. The little she knew later was what she heard from Old Master Mu and other people.
Mu Yushen once went on a mission with Mu Lin. He saved Mu Lin from being injured by drug dealers, stayed with Mu Lin in the hospital while Mu Lin recovered, and then carried Mu Lin on the train back to Jiangcheng overnight.
That is now.
Mu Qingyou was in poor health after recovering from a serious illness. She developed a high fever soon after getting on the train. Mu Yushen asked other passengers for antipyretics and took care of her all the way. The first thing he did after carrying her off the train was to take a taxi to the hospital.
Therefore, he was severely beaten by Old Master Mu and taught him a lesson for not knowing the seriousness of the matter.
Severity...
Mu Qingyou recalled the cold looks those people gave her after she arrived at the Mu family.
In the eyes of the Mu family, this inexplicable person like me is insignificant, but to Mu Yushen, he is important.
But Mu Yushen chose her, the lighter one, between the two.
Mu Qingyou still doesn't quite understand why her uncle is so nice to her.
This thing that had troubled her before now troubled her again.
Mu Qingyou's thoughts were in a mess for a moment. She thought about many things that happened later. Finally, she reached out and touched the side of her neck, and sure enough, she felt a raised scar there.
It is rebirth, yes.
If memory serves me right, something will happen soon. Mu Yushen will carry her to the hospital, and then return to the Mu family to be punished by Old Master Mu...
Mu Qingyou remembered that Mu Ye had hit Mu Yushen very hard with his belt, leaving indelible scars on his body.
This time, I must not let my uncle get hurt for me again!
