Chapter 350
Lu Xun is like this, with strange little obsessions. She must hang up first when talking on the phone, say good night before going to bed, and inform her when they separate...
Jiang Qiao sometimes felt that she was being strictly controlled, but more often she enjoyed this ubiquitous sense of security and control.
The assistant was trying to hold back her laughter when she saw through the rearview mirror that her own artist sitting in the back seat was laughing. She was startled and thought that Jiang Qiao might have become ill because of the "jokes" made by netizens.
The shooting period lasted for a month or so. As Chen Qiu said, the accommodation in the mountainous area was small bungalows. There was no heating in the mountainous area in winter, so taking a bath was a problem. There was a half-day break every Sunday, and we could go to the town bathhouse to take a bath.
In such an environment, Jiang Qiao persisted without saying a word. She even took the initiative to ask to do it again when there were scenes with bad environments.
All the crew members completely changed their view of this "vase" female star, and believed that Jiang Qiao did not bring money into the crew.
Who says that beautiful female stars can’t endure hardships and have no acting skills? They are the first to disagree.
Jiang Qiao, the tough little white flower in everyone's eyes, almost couldn't help crying when she returned to her room and closed the door.
"My hands have been itching badly these days whenever I touch hot water..." Jiang Qiao's tone was full of grievance, and he lifted his red face in front of the phone.
The originally fair and slender fingers looked a little swollen and abnormally red. Lu Xun knew at a glance that they were frostbitten and frowned tightly: "Did you apply frostbite ointment?"
"I applied it." Jiang Qiao said, "It doesn't work."
"Lu Xun, will this leave any sequelae?" Jiang Qiao was extremely worried. She had heard from other actors in the crew that if you get frostbite once, it will recur every year.
She also suffered from the cold when she was a child in an orphanage, but the memory is so distant that she can't remember whether it ever "relapsed".
When Jiang Qiao thought about the frostbite that would itch to the bone every winter, he couldn't help but want to cry for himself in advance.
“No,” Lu Xun’s eyes fell on the red finger. It felt like a nest of ants had poured into his heart, biting him and making him feel pain and itchiness. “Keep warm and apply the ointment regularly in the future, and it won’t come back.”
"Hmm..." Jiang Qiao nodded vigorously, feeling a little embarrassed by his gaze, and put his hands away.
"Jiang Qiao..." Lu Xun started but paused for a while before continuing: "When will you be back?"
"We have finished three quarters of the shooting. It should be done soon." Jiang Qiao replied.
"Can I visit the set?"
This was the nth time Lu Xun had asked this question. He wanted to hold Jiang Qiao's hand and put it in his pocket, to kiss her and comfort her. He didn't want to know about Jiang Qiao's suffering through the cold Internet cable.
Lu Xun was very anxious. This feeling of powerlessness made him unable to calm down at any moment.
Jiang Qiao was stunned for a moment, and uttered two words with great difficulty: "...No."
Lu Xun lowered his eyes and pursed his lips a little.
Jiang Qiao: "…Actually it doesn't hurt that much, just a little itchy. The crew gave me frostbite cream, and Xiao Ting also took good care of me. Lu Xun, don't worry about me…"
"............Yeah." Lu Xun responded softly. It was obvious that he had not given up and still wanted to come to visit. Jiang Qiao regretted "complaining" to Lu Xun. She felt that she and Lu Xun were like a long-distance couple.
Even though she knew Lu Xun would be worried and distressed, she still couldn't change her bad habit of feeling wronged when she heard Lu Xun's voice.
"I'll go back as soon as the filming is over. Can you pick me up then?"
"…………good."
“Smile~” Jiang Qiao teased him with a playful smile. Lu Xun couldn’t bear to disappoint her and pulled the corner of his lips. Jiang Qiao didn’t give him face at all: “Your smile is so ugly!”
Lu Xun: “…………………………”
"Be good, smile again." Jiang Qiao said without hesitation, "Show the standard eight teeth, smile with curved eyebrows and eyes, smile beautifully, understand?"
She kept talking, but Lu Xun didn't let her lead him astray. When Jiang Qiao got tired of talking, he repeated, "Really can't go?"
“……………………”
Jiang Qiao sighed, feeling anxious and troubled, but reason prevailed and he said with difficulty: "I really can't..."
Shenqiu is well-known for its strictness in the industry. In order to ensure that everyone's state is not affected by outside comments, the film is shot in a closed environment. Don't even mention visiting the set. At the beginning, they even took away electronic equipment.
Jiang Qiao has a clear idea of her own positioning. She wants to transform herself through this movie. If she doesn't get rid of the label of "traffic vase", there will always be black fans who will use her love affair to make trouble.
Only with enough works and enough strength can she stop being carried away by traffic and allow the fans who have always supported her to stand up straight.
Jiang Qiao thought that no matter how hard or tiring it was, she had to make this movie well.
The two looked at each other across the cold phone screen, their thoughts spreading silently. Jiang Qiao's eager eyes looked too pitiful, and Lu Xun couldn't bear to force her: "Okay..."
Lu Xun checked the time. The video call lasted nearly an hour and a half. It was now 9:30 pm. Jiang Qiao had to film a scene tomorrow morning. If he continued chatting, he would not get enough sleep. He finally said:
“Don’t keep the sun on all the time. Remember to turn it off before going to bed. Don’t keep it in front of your face. It will make your skin dry and flaky, right?” Lu Xun spoke at a moderate pace, making it easy for people to hear him. “After filming outdoors, remember to put on your down jacket in time. Don’t forget to drink the ginger soup, no matter how unpalatable it is. If you catch a cold, you’ll be the one suffering…”
Lu Xun would say these little bits and pieces every day. Even though she had heard them many times, Jiang Qiao still listened carefully and was not impatient at all. Lu Xun asked her if she remembered them clearly, and Jiang Qiao nodded vigorously: "I remember them clearly."
Jiang Qiao felt that Lu Xun was like an old-fashioned person, who was very strict in caring about others. Although he didn't have much fun... well, he was quite interesting, but only in some special ways.
It was time to rest, and everything that needed to be explained had been said. Jiang Qiao said reluctantly: "Lu Xun, good night..."
"……………good evening."
A grand garden in the capital.
Looking at the black screen of his phone, Lu Xun came back to his senses after a while. He turned on the desk lamp and continued to work on the research project he had just finished.
Lu Xun has been very busy recently. The winter vacation is approaching and the final week makes the students of Beijing University feel sluggish. These have not had much impact on Lu Xun, as he is unable to rest.
After half a month, Sheng Hua finally entered the final stage of completion. The wrap-up banquet was held in a small town. This was the most simple wrap-up banquet Jiang Qiao had ever attended.
Director Shen Qiu doesn't drink, and the others also followed suit and drank tea or soup. When they were half full, Shen Qiu stood up and said, "Everyone has worked hard during this period. Go home and have a good rest and have a good New Year."
