Chapter 67 Fever
Shu Ming stayed in the warm room for a long time, then gulped down two cups of warm water. He finally came to his senses!
At the beginning, the boy seemed to be fine. He was still in high spirits and hugged and said goodbye to everyone with full energy.
But Guan Xianyi felt based on his experience that the child was so excited despite being cold.
This is not a good thing! Everything will turn into its opposite when it reaches its extreme.
But he had already run away.
Guan Xianyi was not paying attention, and the silly boy was forced to drink a sip of white wine by the assistant director Hao Ning, who took out a cup from somewhere, under the pretext of drinking to warm himself up.
Shu Ming's alcohol tolerance is really low, and he even gets red in the face.
Then a blush appeared on their faces, like ripe fruits.
The tone of his speech also began to return to that of his hometown, becoming a curly sound like humming a little tune.
Rong Ankang and Qiao Minxue had already prepared a big red envelope for Shu Ming, and even ordered a bouquet of flowers for him, saying that it would help him calm down.
After all, it was the first time I played a real death scene, so I did it to bring good luck.
Qiao Minxue, in particular, loved this child so much that she even pulled Shu Ming to a corner in private and asked him if he would be willing to play his own child in the play if he had the chance.
Shu Ming looked at him without blinking, making Qiao Minxue feel that he was drunk and not drunk at the same time.
"I do!"
She even took the initiative to hold Qiao Min and learn from him: "Teacher Qiao, thank you for teaching me so many things. I will always remember you."
God knows, Qiao Minxue is middle-aged, almost fifty years old, and has never been coaxed like this in his life. If he doesn't suppress the corners of his mouth, they will be lifted up to the sky!
My daughter is known for her strong-willed personality. She has been like a little adult since she was young. She never causes any trouble and is very independent.
Of course, it is also because he and his wife love their daughter very much and give her 100% support, so their daughter does not need to please the elders, does not need to repeatedly confirm with the outside world whether she is loved, and can do her own things completely freely.
In fact, Shu Ming also has his own ideas, but he doesn't express them so directly.
To put it bluntly, his age, status, family background... all force him to act according to other people's wishes.
Fortunately, Shu Ming realized his own advantages and deliberately magnified the advantages brought by his age.
In other words, the naivety and childishness in him are on the one hand natural, and on the other hand he deliberately creates and exaggerates them.
This made Shu Ming look like a fish in water, and everything he said was pleasing to others.
Of course Qiao Minxue could see that Shu Ming was trying to coax her, but what did it matter? As long as the friendship between them was real, that was enough!
Besides, he was really coaxed.
So he rummaged through his pockets and stuffed another thick red envelope into Shu Ming's pocket.
Alas, there is no other way to express it. I will give the red envelopes originally intended for other actors to Shu Ming first, and let his assistant pick up the rest.
Perhaps because he was really short of money, Shu Ming's eyes were particularly bright when he looked at the red envelope.
You can clearly feel that he loves money and cherishes the opportunity to make money.
But this kind of "love of money" is not annoying... The thing about liking someone's appearance really requires talent, this sentence has been said so many times.
Some young actors have become so tired of their material desires that they are indifferent to receiving a red envelope.
But sending a red envelope to Shu Ming is a little different. You can feel that he is particularly looking forward to it, and you feel a sense of accomplishment when sending it.
So Shu Ming walked back to Guan Xianyi with a bag of red envelopes.
"Drunk?"
Shu Ming nodded, then shook his head: "Drunk."
His eyes were a little misty and his voice began to become softer, turning into a strange tone. He then pointed at his temples and said, "But there's no drunkenness here."
He is awake!
What a joke! If you drink so much that your mind is not clear, and you say something inappropriate or do something inappropriate, you will see a lot of negative news about yourself on social media tomorrow.
Guan Xianyi was not surprised.
After being with Shu Ming for such a long time, I realized that this kid knows his limits when it comes to big things.
Before he could say a few words, Shu Ming was called away again.
Guan Xianyi narrowed his eyes and looked at the figure surrounded by the crowd.
19 years old... and just celebrated his 19th birthday.
He already has a hit CCTV drama in his hands, and a movie directed by a famous director that is destined to be a hit.
The album also achieved triple platinum, and then it was on the cover of V’s November issue…
Next, I will seamlessly join two groups, and both will be ranked first.
There is also a super good one among them. From the time this whole round of filming to the end was finished, he was probably only in his early twenties.
In the past, I wouldn’t even dare to dream of this. If I spread the news, I would be ridiculed and told to go to bed immediately.
Chengzi originally reached out to keep the red envelope for Shu Ming, but Shu Ming dodged it by turning sideways.
He drank some wine and spoke more bluntly: "Thank you, Sister Orange, but I want to take it myself~"
Little money-grubber!
By the time Shu Ming had said goodbye to everyone, they had already returned to the hotel they had booked. He was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, counting the money in the red envelopes with great energy!
The sound of banknotes rubbing against each other was rustling.
Counting them—"A lot."
Counting again—“It’s still a lot!”
Finally, my eldest brother pushed me into the bathroom and pressed me into bed: "Go to sleep!"
After a while, Shu Ming's voice came out from under the quilt again: "How magical! The performance is over just like that~"
It is quite different from "Grassland Love". To be frank, he only stayed in the group of "Grassland Love" for a month or two, so naturally he did not have such deep feelings when the filming was finished.
But Shu Ming stayed in "Chang'an Embers" for half a year.
The ups and downs in it, how to go from being ignored in the beginning to being recognized in the end...the feeling, only those who have experienced it with Shu Ming in person can understand, it is indeed not easy.
but--
"Don't think about it anymore, go to sleep!" Guan Xianyi tried to suppress him with force.
This is so abnormal. She was almost falling asleep from the cold just now, but now she is so excited. I wonder if this guy is going to give her a big surprise.
Looking at Shu Ming's rosy face as he slept, Guan Xianyi couldn't help but sigh.
It's really not easy. In such temperature, she would shiver even in her down jacket.
Shu Ming wore such flimsy clothes, yet he had to meticulously step on the spots given by the director team, and he also had to perform to everyone's satisfaction...
I’m so tired, let’s have a good sleep.
**
It was really beyond Guan Xianyi's expectations.
Just as she was falling asleep in the evening, Zhuang Zheng knocked on her door: "Xiao Shu has a fever!"
Guan Xianyi quickly put on his coat and stood up. The group rushed to the hospital immediately. After the drip was hung, the fever subsided, but he was still confused.
Zhuang Zheng gently closed the door of the ward and shook his head at Guan Xianyi: "The temperature has dropped, but he hasn't woken up yet."
To be precise, Shu Ming woke up for a while in the middle of the night, and first called out "A Niang" twice as if he was not out of character, and then began to murmur "Mom".
This state is no different from not waking up.
Guan Xianyi has started preparing to change her flight schedule and is ready to postpone the magazine photo shoot.
Shu Ming woke up the next morning.
Guan Xianyi was standing by the window watching the snow falling outside. When he turned around, he saw Shu Ming with most of his face buried in the quilt, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
He didn't say anything, just looked at her intently.
Guan Xianyi walked over and smoothed the quilt for him: "Rest assured, I will contact V later and help you postpone the filming."
Shu Ming didn't respond to her, but just closed his eyes lazily.
Just when Guan Xianyi thought he had fallen asleep again.
Shu Ming suddenly spoke up: "Sister Xianyi, I heard that I wasn't originally selected for the November issue."
Logically speaking, to appear on a cover for the first time, one needs awards, fame, and brand sponsorship.
If he had not contacted Chen Mi in time and obtained approval from the headquarters, it is likely that he would not be able to publish the article now.
Guess what, after postponing the filming plan, will V-house wait patiently for him, or will they immediately replace the cover of the November issue?
Guan Xianyi hadn't thought of this, but Shu Ming was too ill to be a suitable subject for filming...
Shu Ming had only one idea - whether it was suitable or not, he would decide after meeting her.
"No need to postpone, let's go as planned."
**
On the first day of October, V magazine's newly appointed editor-in-chief Zhai Helian met her model for the first time as scheduled.
The person who appeared in front of him was Shu Ming, whose lips were pale and white because he had just suffered a serious illness.
To be honest, this is not quite the same as the Shu Ming that Zhai Helian had seen in the information.
After all, most of the time, he appears in front of the public with a "sunny, handsome and cheerful" image.
Zhai Helian also had a headache about how to mix the jewelry sponsored by those brands with a young and handsome guy?
But perhaps because he had just recovered from a serious illness, his physical weakness gave the young boy a sense of vulnerability that was not common before.
Although it was completely different from what he expected, Zhai Helian's heart skipped a beat unconsciously, with a belated feeling of "just right".
Even when the two shook hands, Zhai Helian could feel the other person's fingertips were cold.
Shu Ming's voice was soft but clear: "Hello, Editor-in-Chief Zhai."
Shu Ming had just landed in the capital. In order to arrive at the shooting site in advance, he hurried here without even taking his luggage home.
Without much time to take care of himself, his hair was a little messy on his pale face, his long eyelashes cast shadows, his features were more three-dimensional and delicate than before, but the corners of his eyes were drooping, so his eyes looked at him wetly.
A kind of fragile beauty that is held together by force but easily broken due to excessive rigidity.
Zhai Helian could imagine that when it was piled up with the jewelry, the two sides would complement each other and show brilliance under the camera.
No wonder Chen Mi wanted to sign him as the male lead in the TV series.
No wonder Chen Mi at the headquarters strongly vouched for this young kid.
Zhai Helian's original intention was to buy Chen Mi's face so as to secure his newly acquired position as editor-in-chief.
Now it seems that after the final shooting results come out, it is hard to say who is giving face to whom.
He took a deep breath, made up his mind, and said to his assistant, "Bring over that set of women's jewelry from B's store, quickly."
Then he turned to Shu Ming and said, "I originally prepared a high-end suit for you... After all, from what I know, it should suit you."
The young and handsome new actor shows his masculine charm for the first time in a green and immature way.
It’s actually a pretty good way of handling it.
"But seeing is believing. Now that we've met, I feel like the previous plan might not be suitable for you. So I'd like to discuss changing the filming plan with you."
