During this period, the crew worked very hard and never rested. Director Hu arranged for everyone to have a meal together in a large private room downstairs in the hotel in the evening.

It's rare to relax.

Everyone was basically familiar with each other. There were actors and crew members sitting at several large round tables, eating and drinking.

The atmosphere was informal and full of laughter.

[Right corridor, are you coming out?] ——Baby.

A new message popped up at the top of the phone.

Sheng Yuan subconsciously looked up, and saw that Shi Yan was no longer sitting next to Director Hu across the round table.

After turning off the screen and putting away the phone, Sheng Yuan prepared to get up. It was already the end of the dinner party, but obviously, everyone didn't want the happy time to end just like that. Several social elites led by Gong Cong suggested that they should have some game shows.

Director Hu and several older staff members waved their hands repeatedly, expressing their respectfulness and asking the young people to do as they pleased.

A group of people played a rock-paper-scissors version of truth or dare.

Sheng Yuan followed the noisy and bustling sound and left without attracting anyone's attention.

/ Everything is isolated behind the box door.

The corridor on the first floor of the hotel is very quiet. Although it is by no means comparable to the luxury of five-star or four-star hotels, some thought was still put into its decoration.

The intricately patterned carpet and the retro glass wall lamps shaped like petals give the corridor a mysterious and dim atmosphere.

Sheng Yuan walked along the right side and was about to reach the bottom. He didn't see anyone and was wondering if he had taken the wrong path.

suddenly.

With a "click".

The fire safety door beside Sheng Yuan opened, and a bony hand grasped her wrist and pulled her in.

react.

Under the green safety light, Sheng Yuan met a pair of dark eyes.

"Shi Yan?"

"Um."

Shi Yan was fully armed, wearing a windbreaker, baseball cap, and mask. He was dressed neatly, with only his dark eyes showing. He had a slender and unkempt figure, as if he was going out.

He let go of Sheng Yuan's wrist, stretched out his other hand, and handed a paper bag to her.

Sheng Yuan took it, lowered her head and opened it. Inside was the same windbreaker jacket, baseball cap, and a brand new, unopened mask.

He just left the table. Did he go to get these things?

He met her slightly confused gaze.

Shi Yan looked at her, his eyelashes moved, and he said in a low and magnetic voice through the mask: "It may be a little big."

Meaning let her wear it.

Sheng Yuan didn't ask questions like "Why do you need to wear a coat?" or "Where are you going after putting it on?", but just took the things out of the bag.

The clothes belong to Shi Yan, and the size is indeed a bit big.

She smelled the scent of detergent from her collar, with a faint hint of cedar, and she had to roll up the sleeves of her coat several times before she could put it on.

The same goes for the baseball cap, but fortunately there is an adjustment buckle on the back of the cap, so it can be put on.

Shi Yan stood quietly waiting for her the whole time, holding the mask in his hand. Seeing that she was almost done, he opened the transparent packaging bag. When she loosened the buckle of the brim of her hat, he took two steps forward, pinched the strings at both ends of the mask with his slender knuckles, and reached out to gently buckle them on her earlobes, one on the left and one on the right.

With her face covered, Sheng Yuan stilled her body and clearly felt him bending his fingers and pinching the metal strip above her mask.

"alright."

Shi Yan stepped back, and held her hand again the next second, but this time not by the wrist.

The dinner party in the box was in full swing.

He led her along the fire escape stairs towards the basement floor.

The underground first floor is a parking lot.

But Shi Yan had no intention of driving the car. He walked around the car for about three minutes, and a not very eye-catching iron gate appeared in front of him.

He reached out and opened the door.

Go out.

Sheng Yuan then realized that it was the back door of the hotel. There were many green plants planted here and it was very quiet. It was obvious that few people came here normally.

Shi Yan took her and continued to walk out.

It was dark at night and I couldn't see clearly around me. I didn't know which path this was and I didn't meet anyone along the way.

The two people were one in front and one behind, with their shadows, one tall and one short, moving on the ground with their steps, very close to each other.

After walking for a while, Shi Yan suddenly stopped and turned around. His black eyes were still as bright as ever even in the dark night.

"Where are we going?" Sheng Yuan asked, looking up slightly while being held by the hand.

It was as if she was reminded by him and just remembered to ask casually, but the fact was that she would go wherever he took her.

Shi Yan looked at her for a long time, then looked away, "It's just ahead."

It was not until she heard the sound of flowing water that Sheng Yuan had a premonition.

Then, she really saw a stream.

"here--"

It is the place where the crew filmed a certain scene.

Sheng Yuan remembered this place. She also had a role here, but it was during the day. Plus it was night time now, so she didn't recognize it at first.

The crew has finished work and all equipment has been removed. This piece of land is still under the lease period of the "Power" crew, and outsiders will not come here.

The crew chose this place for certain reasons. The most important reason was that the ecological environment here is excellent.

Green grass slopes, hills and gurgling water.

When we first started filming here, some staff members even saw wild rabbits.

The air is fresh and there are endless blue sky and white clouds.

It is simply a purely natural ancient style exterior scene.

"Sheng Yuan, look up."

Sheng Yuan followed Shi Yan and did the same.

He raised his head, and the next second, his movements stopped.

A cool breeze in the silent night and the sound of a gentle stream.

The night is like a huge inky black curtain, dotted with densely packed, sparkling stars. It is so vast that its boundaries cannot be seen.

It has not been invaded by human habitation and there are no steel high-rises.

It is like an artistic painting of fireworks splashing out of trees. It is so close that it seems to be slowly moving above people's heads. It is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes away.

A very beautiful starry sky.

"I saw this one day when we were filming a night scene. It's like this here when night falls."

Shi Yan's low and magnetic voice sounded in Sheng Yuan's ears.

Beautiful things always have the magical power to make people's hearts inexplicably peaceful and calm.

"nice."

Sheng Yuan looked up at the starry sky for a long time.

The corners of her beautiful eyes were slightly narrowed, as if a small piece of starry sky was falling on them.

Unlike during dinner parties when he always had droopy eyelids.

She turned her head, her almond eyes sparkling, and looked over, "Shi Yan, you can tell me, so you came here to see the stars."

"Um."

Shi Yan's dark eyes were still looking at her, and he nodded slowly.

The girl's eyebrows curved: "Very beautiful."

After saying that, she turned around and continued to look up at the starry sky.

For a long, long time.

She heard a pleasant low voice beside her ear.

"Sheng Yuan."

"Um?"

“Don’t be unhappy.”
