Yin Chengjue arrived today dressed casually, wearing a white T-shirt with a simple pattern of a winged fox printed in the middle—which was actually the pattern on their wedding rings.
She wore a misty blue long coat and black jeans. The style was simple, except for the few silver chains on the waistband that were a bit eye-catching.
Finally, wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a black mask all in one, I almost got asked to leave by the staff as soon as I walked onto the set.
There's no way around it, this outfit is so different from the usual suit style that at first glance you might think it's an actor from the neighboring filming studio who wandered onto the wrong set.
"I'm here to visit the set." Yin Chengjue had no choice but to take off his sunglasses and mask.
"President Yin!" This face has been trending on social media multiple times; anyone who surfs the internet has seen it at least once.
"Are you here to visit Xiaoyu on set? Xiaoyu is touching up her makeup in the dressing room," a staff member said.
Yin Chengjue nodded, followed the staff's directions, saw a simply constructed shed, thanked them, and walked over.
Just as he reached the door, it opened, and Xiao Yang's voice rang out: "Brother Rong, what would you like to drink for lunch today?"
Xiao Yang was looking down at his phone, ordering food. Rong Yu was following behind him. When he looked up, he saw Rong Yu and smiled, "Brother!"
Having been Rong Yu's assistant for so long, Xiao Yang had only ever heard Rong Yu call Yin Chengjue "brother." Upon hearing this, he immediately felt like he had been tortured: "Brother Rong, this is a public place with people coming and going. You shouldn't make these kinds of dirty jokes. It will affect your image!"
Rong Yu: ? ? When did I make any suggestive jokes? I was just saying hello.
Xiao Yang looked away from the order screen and noticed someone standing outside the door. He looked up and was startled: "President Yin?!"
Yin Chengjue nodded: "Are you ready to start filming with Xiaoyu?"
Xiao Yang glanced at the scene being filmed outside and shook his head: "It's not here yet. At this rate, it should be this afternoon."
Yin Chengjue: "Then I'll take him for a walk nearby, not far. I'll call and come right back."
"Then...then should I go and say hello to the director?" Xiao Yang said voluntarily.
As Xiao Yang walked over there, Yin Chengjue's gaze lingered on Rong Yu, unable to look away for a long time.
Rong Yu must have filmed the scene of the Imperial Preceptor's sacrificial ceremony today, so the usually flawless Imperial Preceptor, dressed in white, changed into a solemn sacrificial robe today.
He wore a wide, snow-white robe, over which was a black long gown with gold patterns. The waist was cinched with a wide black belt, which was also decorated with gold patterns and inlaid with seven bright red beads in the center. The largest bead was in the middle, and six smaller beads surrounded the large bead. A string of bells was tied to both sides of the belt, which jingled with every step he took.
The lower part of the garment is wide and heavy, with characters embroidered in gold thread, birds and beasts in red thread, and the national flower of the Yuan Kingdom in purple thread along the edges.
Not only were the clothes elaborate, but the makeup was also very complex. Rong Yu's handsome face was painted with red, white, gold and black dots on his brow, the corners of his eyes and cheeks. It looked simple, but it gave Rong Yu's face a mysterious feel, as if he really was a sacred high priest from ancient times.
The makeup artist didn't even spare Rong Yu's neck, using white and gold paint to draw several stripes on it. It's only thanks to Rong Yu's good looks that she could pull it off; otherwise, this kind of makeup would have been more of a graffiti disaster than a sacred image.
Rong Yu walked out of the makeshift makeup booth and placed the crown she was holding on her head.
This is a crown made of black and gold, with the part covering the head also in gold. Several red lines hang down from the side, each ending in a bead.
Seeing that Yin Chengjue was engrossed in the photo, Rong Yu couldn't help but laugh and say, "Brother, shall we take a picture? It took me quite a while to do this makeup."
Yin Chengjue: "If I take a picture with you dressed like this, wouldn't that be considered blasphemy?"
Rong Yu raised her head and looked at Yin Chengjue: "Then, do you dare to blaspheme against the gods?"
Yin Chengjue raised his hand, his fingertips gently tracing the red silk threads on both sides of the crown, finally pinching the bead at the end of the thread and gently rubbing it, and said with a smile: "If you are the god, I would not only dare to blaspheme the god, but I would also dare to... defy the god."
Xiao Yang, who relayed the message, was speechless.
Xiao Yang didn't come back alone; a young man in casual clothes was following behind him.
Although it was casual wear, the T-shirt had a green bamboo pattern printed on it, and the pants were wide-legged and the same moon white color as the shirt, making it look like a simplified version of a long robe. In addition, he was twirling a folding fan in his hand and walking at a leisurely pace. From a distance, he looked like a spoiled young master from ancient times who had run out.
It's quite amazing how someone can wear a discounted Taobao T-shirt with ancient Chinese elements and make it look like a young master from a noble family.
The visitor was none other than Xi Bei.
"You want to take pictures? Don't rush, let's shoot a few scenes first. The makeup artist just did your makeup, so don't let it fade by the time you come back. The ritual of the Imperial Preceptor is quite particular, every color of makeup must be used, especially the yellow, it absolutely cannot fade."
Rong Yu corrected, "This is gold."
Xi Bei: "In my eyes, it's about the same."
Since they needed to shoot storyboards, they had to put the photography aside for now, and Yin Chengjue went with them to take a look.
It must be said that Rong Yu's appearance is really beautiful. The camera captures her from every angle without any blind spots, giving her a sense of sacred inviolability.
The staff responsible for filming and lighting were full of praise.
As Yin Chengjue listened, he felt a little uneasy, as if someone else had seen his beloved possession. He just wanted to hide Rong Yu away, to hide her in a place where only he could see her.
The thought had barely crossed his mind when Yin Chengjue quickly suppressed it. Tsk! This idea is a bit dangerous. Could it be that Rong Yu's mother was right, and he also needs to see a psychologist?
Just then, a voice, clearly tinged with danger, rang out: "What are you looking at here?"
Yin Chengjue looked in the direction of the sound and found that Donghuang Qingyan, who was directing the scene, had walked over at some point and was standing behind Xi Bei.
Xi Bei's gaze was still fixed on Rong Yu, and he casually replied, "Of course, it's to see beauty... uh? To see the beauty of nature?"
Donghuang Qingyan: "Hehe, your expression says it all."
After saying that, the man scooped up Xi Bei with one hand, turned around and walked back as easily as if he were holding a rag doll.
Xi Bei, with both feet off the ground: "..."
Xi Bei: "Put me down! There are so many people here! Don't I have any dignity?!"
"Hahaha..." Good-natured laughter erupted from all around, clearly indicating that they were already used to this scene.
Some people were even egging her on: "Sister-in-law, stop running around! Isn't it nice to be in Dong-ge's arms?"
"Dong-ge, you'd better get a rope and tie your wife to your belt, otherwise she might run off again if you're not careful, hahaha..."
Get a rope...
These three words unconsciously repeated in Yin Chengjue's mind before he looked at Rong Yu.
Just then, Rong Yu also looked over at him, and their eyes met. Rong Yu blinked innocently, looking somewhat naive.
Yin Chengjue suddenly felt that his heart was so wicked that, for a moment, he actually considered taking a rope and tying the person to his waistband.
The crew's lunch was ordered by the crew, and only bottled water was served. So if you wanted to drink something else, you had to order it yourself. Of course, the lead actors had to control their diet to maintain their figures, so sugary drinks were absolutely forbidden, especially Deng Xiao, who played the young emperor, and had to maintain the image of a thin puppet emperor.
After obtaining the director's consent, Yin Chengjue ordered a fruit platter for everyone in the crew, secretly... uh, no, openly giving Rong Yu an extra meal!
In fact, Yin Chengjue also played a little trick. While everyone was busy sharing the fruit platter and had no time to pay attention to anything else, he switched the boxed lunch he brought for Rong Yu with Rong Yu's meal from the film crew.
Seeing the long-awaited, fragrant roasted beef, Rong Yu, who had been under dietary control for many days, was so excited that her mouth watered. She ate the meat one piece at a time, while cautiously looking around as if afraid of being discovered.
Yin Chengjue was both amused and exasperated: "Eat slowly, I'll shield you so they can't see. There's also egg-wrapped meat here, it's all yours."
Rong Yu kept shoveling rice into her mouth, yet managed to squeeze in a few words: "Brother, eat too!"
Yin Chengjue quickly devoured the crew's meals, along with the various meat dishes he had prepared.
Actually, the food on set was pretty good, with two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. The actresses with small appetites probably couldn't even finish half of it, but for Rong Yu, it was a bit too little. Rong Yu's stomach had been fed by Yin Chengjue...
Yin Chengjue: "Eat slowly, don't overeat. We also made some pickled radish here, have a taste."
Rong Yu was very satisfied with the meal and found it unforgettable.
Well... the imperial advisor's sacrificial robes, which were originally quite loose, are now a bit tight.
The belt, designed to accentuate her waistline, made Rong Yu feel uncomfortable.
Upon seeing this, Donghuang Qingyan's gaze towards the two became somewhat unfriendly.
Xi Bei stepped in to smooth things over: "Oh, it's alright, it's alright. We still have half an hour to rest, we can take a walk to digest our food."
Rong Yu touched her swollen belly, feeling a little embarrassed: "Once I digest it, my belly will definitely go back down!"
Xi Bei: "Keep it up! Also, I suggest you take off your belt first, just in case it breaks accidentally, this outfit is quite expensive."
The belt was just for decoration, and taking it off wouldn't affect anything, so Yin Chengjue helped Rong Yu remove the belt and put it aside.
Xi Bei then instructed, "I'll teach you a quick way to aid digestion. Mr. Yin can put one arm around Xiao Yu's waist, support Xiao Yu's other hand, and use the other hand to rub Xiao Yu's stomach."
Is this some kind of special folk remedy? Rubbing the stomach is understandable, but why put your arm around the waist?
Donghuang Qingyan stuffed a piece of apple into Xi Bei's mouth and said, "Don't keep coming up with bad ideas!"
Yin Chengjue finally realized what that posture was, and almost choked on his saliva.
