Chapter 414 Emetics
After a day of filming, Guo Shengtai wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat aside somewhat powerlessly.
Chu Ruanruan suddenly walked over and said, "Director Guo, you don't look well!"
"I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach. I'm old and my health is not good." Guo Shengtai smiled helplessly.
Chu Ruanruan handed him a transparent box: "Take one, you will feel better."
"What's this?"
"Mint candy." Chu Ruanruan replied with a smile.
Guo Shengtai took the box, took one and threw it into his mouth: "Thank you, Miss Chu."
"You're welcome." Chu Ruanruan smiled.
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Shengtai's face changed drastically and his stomach churned. He was about to run to the toilet, but it was too late. Before he even reached the toilet, he vomited everything in his stomach.
"Director Guo, what's wrong with you?"
Everyone gathered around.
Chu Ruanruan handed over a bottle of water, and Guo Shengtai immediately rinsed his mouth with the water:
"I'm fine. Go pack up your things. It's going to rain soon. Don't let anything break down with the machine."
"Director Guo, are you really okay? Why don't you go to the hospital?"
"No, I'm much better now."
Guo Shengtai didn't force himself to do it. He did feel much better after vomiting out those things.
Seeing this, everyone could only return to their posts.
"Director Guo, how are you? Are you feeling better now?" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
Guo Shengtai looked at Chu Ruanruan's smile and immediately realized: "What you just gave me was not a mint candy?"
"Mint candy doesn't have the effect of inducing vomiting." Chu Ruanruan smiled.
"That's an emetic!" Guo Shengtai said in surprise.
"Yes!" Chu Runrun nodded calmly.
Guo Shengtai's expression changed slightly: "Miss Chu, why did you give me emetics?"
"You have a belly full of human flesh. If you don't spit it out, you're going to die of stuffing, right?" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"What?" Guo Shengtai thought he had misheard:
"What meat did you just say?"
"It's nothing. Director Guo, are you used to living in your new home these days?" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
After Chu Runrun reminded him, Guo Shengtai remembered what she had reminded him before.
"I'm getting used to it. Living in my new home is very comfortable!"
"As long as you're comfortable, Director Guo, won't you invite us to your house for your new home? My brother is thinking of investing in a film crew recently. Director Guo has experience in this area, so won't you give us some advice?" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
Guo Shengtai immediately realized that Ning Xuan was going to be an investor in Xingchen Ji!
He was just worrying about what to do if the later funds could not keep up, when a ready-made sponsor came to him.
"Okay, okay! I'll treat Mr. Ning and Miss Chu to a simple meal at my house tonight. You two must come!" Guo Shengtai said quickly.
"It's settled then." Chu Ruanruan said with a smile.
Guo Shengtai immediately called Xie Wei and asked her to prepare dinner at home.
After packing up, Guo Shengtai took Ning Xuan, Chu Runrun, Tian Yuyuan and Ge Hanlin back home.
"Mr. Ning, Ms. Chu, Tian Yuyuan, Ge Hanlin, please take your seats!"
As soon as she entered the house, Chu Runrun keenly smelled a hint of blood, the smell of human blood.
The crackling sound of frying food came from the kitchen, and a woman could be vaguely seen cooking.
"Wife, the guests are here. Is the meal ready?" Guo Shengtai shouted.
"It's almost ready. There's also some broth." Xie Wei responded.
Guo Shengtai felt nauseous again when he heard the word "meat". Looking at the table full of meat dishes, Guo Shengtai couldn't help but frown:
"Wife, you didn't like meat that much before. Why have you only been cooking meat dishes lately? Not a single vegetarian dish?"
"I see you're working hard outside, so I want to give you some nourishment!" Xie Wei said with a smile.
"It doesn't have to be all meat dishes! It's okay for normal times, but we have guests at home today, so let's make some vegetarian dishes." Guo Shengtai advised in a low voice.
Xie Wei's expression showed a hint of dissatisfaction, but she didn't say anything. She just took the cucumber that had been idle for a long time and started cutting it.
Chu Runrun and Ning Xuan looked at the table full of meat: chicken, fish, duck, beef and mutton. Almost all the meat was gathered together, but there was not a single leaf of vegetable in it, not even a bit of onion, ginger or garlic.
"This isn't a dish at all, it's a pure meat feast!" Ge Hanlin complained in a low voice.
Guo Shengtai said awkwardly, "I'm sorry, my wife thought I was working too hard, so she didn't make any vegetarian dishes."
Chu Ruanruan raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "It's okay."
The meat on the table was not chicken, duck, or fish as it appeared. In her and Ning Xuan's eyes, the true nature of these dishes was revealed.
Chicken is human breast, duck is human leg, fish is abdomen, beef and mutton are spine, and some are internal organs. All of them are raw and bloody.
"Don't eat for a while." Chu Runrun whispered to Tian Yuyuan and Ge Hanlin.
"Why? Director Guo invited us to dinner. It would be impolite if we didn't eat a single bite!" said Ge Hanlin.
"Do you really want to know the reason?" Chu Runrun raised an eyebrow.
Ge Hanlin shook her head repeatedly when she saw her expression. Every time Chu Runrun spoke like this, something bad would happen.
Soon, the last plate of broth was served, accompanied by a plate of smashed cucumbers.
"The meal is ready, please take a seat!" Guo Shengtai said with a smile.
"Where's Mengmeng? Call her out for dinner!" Guo Shengtai said.
"I'll go and shout."
Guo Shengtai quickly invited Ning Xuan and the others to eat, but faced with a feast of human flesh, how could they possibly eat it?
"Director Guo, your wife's cooking is really unique!" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
Guo Shengtai smiled helplessly and said, "I'm sorry to bother you. She wasn't like this before. I don't know what's wrong with her these past few days. When she cooks, she only sees meat and fish, not even a little onion, ginger, or garlic."
"No wonder Director Guo has severe indigestion. He eats so much meat every day. It would be better for him to eat some vegetarian dishes!" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
Just as he finished speaking, a girl's voice came: "What's so delicious about vegetarian food?"
Xie Wei and Guo Meng walked over and looked at the table of food, their eyes lighting up.
"Mengmeng, this is a guest, how can you talk like that!" Guo Shengtai scolded.
Guo Meng ignored Guo Shengtai and sat next to Tian Yuyuan and started eating with relish.
Those bloody raw foods seemed like rare delicacies in her mouth.
Chu Runrun muttered secretly, fortunately Tian Yuyuan and Ge Hanlin couldn't see it, otherwise she would not be able to hold on any longer.
"Mr. Ning, I'm sorry. I spoiled Mengmeng. She didn't mean any harm." Guo Shengtai said with a smile.
"It's okay." Ning Xuan responded calmly.
"Why don't you eat it? Do you think my cooking is bad?" Xie Wei said with a smile.
"It's not that our cooking skills are bad, it's just that we don't dare to eat this meat!" The smile in Chu Runrun's eyes gradually turned cold.
"Why wouldn't you be afraid to eat such good meat? I can't treat you with bad meat!" Xie Wei said with a smile.
Guo Shengtai frowned slightly and said with some displeasure, "Miss Chu, don't worry. Although my wife's cooking skills are indeed lacking, the meat is definitely fresh."
