When Ji Qian came out, Han Mengyao was waiting outside the monitoring room, still holding the wedding dress in her arms.
It was the height of summer, and Ji Qian recovered soon after luring the female ghost away, with only some frostbite marks remaining on her hands.
"Qianqian, are you alright?" Han Mengyao stepped forward, and the familiar chill returned, though this time it was much weaker than before.
Ji Qian shook the cola bottle in her hand: "Here, he probably won't regain consciousness anytime soon."
Han Mengyao stared at the bottle of cola again and again, but couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped worrying about it.
She held up her wedding dress for Ji Qian to see: "I've seen this dress before. The same style is available online for 58 yuan a set, and it even comes with a gold hairpin."
In other words, the wedding dress was indeed a prop purchased by the production team, but based on Ji Qian's extensive experience with ghosts, the female ghost was definitely not a modern ghost.
Ji Qian wanted to exchange the information she knew with Han Mengyao, but kept quiet because of the presence of the camera.
"Um... what did I say to you?"
Ji Qian looked at Han Mengyao in shock when she asked the question. Han Mengyao knew from Ji Qian's expression that she was still unaware of what had happened, so she pulled Ji Qian to a corner where there were no cameras: "I was filmed just now. Even a fool could see that something was wrong. There's no use in trying to hide it anymore."
I told my agent that we'll go see Director Liu in a bit and have an online meeting with the agents to see how to resolve this issue.
You should be able to sense how strange this house is. Similar things will happen frequently in the future. There are still five days of filming to go; we can't just pretend it didn't happen.
Having been in the entertainment industry for many years, Han Mengyao is very clear about how it operates. As long as the production team is willing to cooperate, no matter how many mistakes Ji Qian makes, they can all be attributed to the show's effect. Therefore, the most urgent task is not to pretend that nothing happened, but to bring the production team to the same side.
Ji Qian was genuinely unaware of the intricacies involved. Liu Xia had protected her very well. After entering the entertainment industry, she worked diligently on her acting projects. Sometimes, after filming a movie, she wouldn't even know the director's name. Liu Xia handled all these matters.
Before dinner, Xu Qi, who had been injured twice, finally returned.
It shouldn't have taken this long. The doctor at the county hospital examined his injuries, prescribed some medicine, and was ready to send him back. But Xu Qi kept delaying. He not only asked to have an X-ray taken, but also suggested staying overnight in the county to wait for the results. In the end, he was forced to return by his agent.
When Xu Qi returned, he ran into Han Mengyao and Ji Qian, who were whispering in the yard.
Xu Qi wanted to go over and say hello, but when he saw the empty Coke bottle that Ji Qian was shaking in the distance, Xu Qi immediately understood what was going on, turned around and went back to his room, and didn't come out of his room until dinner was served.
Ji Qian and Han Mengyao went to redeem their points before dinner.
Because he was busy picking locks in the morning and catching ghosts in the afternoon, he was delayed and only managed to get 5 points, 3 of which were contributed by Xu Qi.
Han Mengyao had a very fruitful day, earning a total of 15 points including the wedding dress she wore at the end, which was said to be the highest score among the guests.
As for Xu Qi... he missed the chance to exchange points, but even if he had, it wouldn't have mattered, since all his clues had already been taken away by Ji Qian.
The dinner set meal costs 3 points.
Ji Qian thought about the supplies she had hidden under her bed and decided to give up exchanging them.
"Can I still get a loan?" Penniless, Xu Qi wanted to take out another loan for food, but before the production team could answer, Ji Qian stopped him. "The poor don't accept charity! Let's go!!" With that, she pulled Xu Qi away.
Production team: ...Ha, just a trick to hog all the benefits.
Ji Qian pulled Xu Qi upstairs, and he cooperated with her the whole way until they reached the room door.
Xu Qi, who had been quiet the whole way, suddenly remembered that there was an old man hanging inside the house. She refused to go in no matter what, clinging tightly to the door frame: "Sister, please let me live a couple more days, I really can't!"
[Shocking! The Hidden Pain of a Popular Male Star: Xu Qi Admits He's "Incompetent"!]
【Qiqi! Mommy won't allow you to talk about yourself like that!!】
What's wrong?! Is it the process that's wrong, or the result?
You can't just say things carelessly; you can only judge someone after experiencing them. I say it's good (shyly)
[Those guys upstairs, how did they get so drunk after just a few dishes?]
Whether it works or not, you'll only know by trying. I suggest you let me give it a try!
The abacus beads all hit my face.
"It's okay, I know you, you won't miss a couple of days!" Seeing that she couldn't drag Xu Qi away, Ji Qian simply grabbed Xu Qi's leg and carried him up.
This wasn't the first time Xu Qi had been carried like this. Whenever he was a child and fainted from fright, Ji Qian would carry him back to his room like this.
But this time was different. This time... "It's still live! Aaaaaaah!" Xu Qi covered his face and screamed. Ji Qian, annoyed by the noise, slapped Xu Qi's butt. It worked, and Xu Qi immediately quieted down.
【Aa ...
Put that man down, let me handle this!
[I'll contribute 200 to crowdfund the assassination of Ji Qian!]
I want to curse Ji Qian, but I also want to ask about the feel of the hand.
[It seems to feel good; I saw Ji Qian bounce it twice after she slapped it down.]
Xu Qi: There's no need to observe so closely.
Ji Qian walked to the bedside and put Xu Qi down, only to find that Xu Qi's face was already extremely red. This was quite rare, as this kid was usually incredibly thick-skinned. This was the first time in all these years that she had seen Xu Qi blush.
"What, are you shy? It's not like you're the first... Mmm!" Xu Qi covered Ji Qian's mouth and desperately tried to wink at her. Only then did Ji Qian remember that the camera was still filming.
Ji Qian patted Xu Qi's hand, signaling him to let go: "Sorry, I got so excited I forgot. Here, let me show you a big treasure!"
Is this something I can hear?
[Ji Qian, I beg you, please let Qiqi go!]
[It's great, I love watching it, I want more!]
Although I know Ji Qian didn't mean it that way, I still misunderstood...
Xu Qi was unaware of what had happened that morning. Upon hearing this, he felt a pang of panic. Could it be that after all these years, Sister Qian had finally realized his good looks and wanted to force herself on him?!
