He is so foolish and courageous
Lu Xinyang lifted up his large down jacket, turned around and looked carefully at his butt. After looking at it, he jumped twice on the spot, walked forward a few steps, and looked back again.
Very good, the back pocket is very deep and can completely hide the photo inside, without any possibility of exposure.
Only then did he feel relieved and satisfied.
Dusk dripped down from the wings of the flying birds, but the crew had not yet completed their filming task for the day. The lighting technician set up the equipment and stood in the field with them on an empty stomach for three hours.
After working so hard and finally completing today's task, most of the crew members treated this hot pot meal as a celebratory banquet.
Of course, the male protagonist, who was the only one in the group who had no food to eat, was not among the celebration.
Assistant Director Chen Feng, relying on the director's backing, spoke first, "Well, you guys from the props, lighting, and photography crew, please take the equipment and the lead actor back for safekeeping first, and then come eat with the driver and crew. Don't worry, there's plenty of food today, you won't be able to finish it all even if you stay up all night."
Lu Xinyang gazed dimly at the brightly lit hot pot restaurant, its aroma wafting ten miles away. He looked at the excited faces one after another, watched Ji Rongyu smile at him, then walked away side by side with Gao Jian without even looking back...
After returning the phone to him, even Tang Lin walked away arm in arm with Tang Yao, discussing loudly what dishes to serve with the sea buckthorn hotpot and the spicy hotpot respectively.
Lu Xinyang could only get on the bus alone in the howling cold wind. Fortunately, the one who shared the same seat with him was the props team who had not used up the big watermelon.
Lu Xinyang and Xigua looked at each other: "..."
Wronged.
Normally, for a young man in his twenties who was in great shape, skipping a meal wouldn't be a big deal, but... He had to smell it first, and then be driven away!
Originally, it might have been just ordinary hunger, but now...
Lu Xinyang moved back and forth, feeling uncomfortable sitting in the car. It was probably because he was so hungry that his butt was cramping.
How could this go on? He had to fight for it no matter what, at least he had to sit in the store and continue smelling it!
So, while waiting for the red light, Lu Xinyang pushed the car door and ran away.
Before running away, he did not forget to take the watermelon away. This is called sharing the hardships and happiness.
After a moment's silence, the driver nudged the co-pilot and said, "The director asked us to bring back the goods, but he ran away with another one. Aren't you going to chase him?"
The co-pilot calmly pulled out his phone to report the situation: "The pressure is shifting to the director on its own. It's so tactless of us to stand in the way..."
Lu Xinyang made a sudden comeback, striding down the road with a watermelon in his arms. He felt that he was building up momentum as he walked. When he arrived at the hot pot restaurant, he would slam the watermelon on the table and sit on the stool, to see who would dare to kick him out again.
This is what he thought and intended to do.
The restaurant was packed and bustling, but Ji Rongyu, who always liked to sit by the window, was easy to find. Lu Xinyang locked onto him at first sight, pushed the door open with a fierce expression, walked to Ji Rongyu's table with his head held high, and raised the watermelon in his arms with both hands -
Ji Rongyu put down his drink with a click, raised his eyelids and looked at him: "What are you doing here?"
Lu Xinyang slowly put the watermelon down: "I'm worried that you're too greasy from eating hot pot, so I brought you some fruit."
"You don't have to be so considerate," Ji Rongyu reached out and tapped the watermelon. The sound was thumping, indicating it was ripe. He tried not to laugh, waiting to see what other tricks Lu Xinyang could come up with. "It's just a watermelon. Just have someone bring it over later."
Lu Xinyang's eyes slid back and forth across the table full of ingredients: "There's something else...something very important I need to discuss with you."
"Can't you call if you need anything?"
"That's what I wanted to remind you," Lu Xinyang cleared his throat. "My phone got acute gastroenteritis from eating too much hot pot and was sent to the hospital. It can't make calls, so don't learn from it."
Ji Rongyu's cell phone was on the table. He reached out and tapped the screen a few times, and then a clear ringtone came from Lu Xinyang's pocket.
The two looked at each other, and Lu Xinyang took out his cell phone without changing his expression and hung up the call.
"Tsk." Ji Rongyu failed.
He turned to look at the director's table and saw that they were already enjoying a drink and chatting happily. They probably wouldn't notice him from the walls. He stopped pretending to be serious and said, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? If you stand any longer, the director will notice you."
Lu Xinyang's position was immediately confirmed.
The shabu-shabu pot in front of the two of them had already boiled. Ji Rongyu used a serving chopstick to pick up some fish balls and shrimp dumplings and put them into the fragrant beef bone soup. Lu Xinyang clumsily brought back a dish of dipping sauce and took out a few pieces of soft boiled white radish from the pot to fill his stomach.
"It's great to be a male star. If I want to eat radish, eat radish. If I want to eat bean sprouts, eat bean sprouts..." Lu Xinyang pouted and blew on the white and fat radish, and looked at Hong Tang with a bit of greed in his eyes.
As he looked, his gaze slowly moved to the green watermelon.
"Hello, could you please cut this watermelon in half, thank you."
The waiter came over, holding a long knife, and with a snap, the watermelon was split into two smooth halves. Lu Xinyang said, "Could you please cut this half into a fruit platter for us? And... is there a juicer in the store?"
The waiter nodded and said yes, and he went to the kitchen with the other half of the watermelon.
Ji Rongyu tilted his head to look at him, then used the serving chopsticks to pick up the fish balls and shrimp dumplings floating on the soup and put them into his bowl to cool.
Then he changed his chopsticks and put the shrimp dumplings covered with dipping sauce into his mouth.
Soy sauce, sesame oil, chili oil, balsamic vinegar, sesame, chili pepper... and a lot of mustard.
With this thing, even if Lu Xinyang eats white pot, it will not be much different from red pot.
Ji Rongyu took a sip of lemonade and hesitated between "confiscate the dipping sauce" and "I didn't see it", then Lu Xinyang came back with his half watermelon.
"Now I have a special pot too," Lu Xinyang said contentedly as he placed the watermelon on the table. "Look, this is my special watermelon pot."
Ji Rongyu took a quick look and saw that only the sweetest piece in the middle of the red flesh was left. He cut it into a heart shape and the rest was blended into watermelon juice.
The little heart was revealed cutely, and in order to make the juice look redder, Lu Xinyang carefully skimmed off the foam on the juice.
Ji Rongyu: “…”
He looked at the half watermelon with an indescribable look: "You don't want to put the meatballs in this to rinse them, do you?" Then he would not agree to it even for the sake of the meatballs' dignity.
"How can that be delicious? Do you think I'm stupid?"
Thinking he was very clever, Lu Xinyang used a spoon to dig out the most perfect little heart in the middle, placed it on a clean small plate and gave it to Ji Rongyu: "Try it, this is the apple of my eye."
Ji Rongyu: “…”
Then he dipped the spoon into the watermelon juice and dug out a big, imperfect heart. He put it on his plate and said, "It's my turn. This is the flesh and blood of my heart."
Finally, he put two pieces of lettuce into the juice, picked up his mobile phone to take a photo, and posted it on Weibo.
[@路新炀: Spicy hot pot is really delicious [Picture]]
Ji Rongyu who saw the message pushed on Weibo: “…………”
He really shouldn't treat Lu Xinyang as a fool.
A fool only likes to deceive himself, but Lu Xinyang is not like that. He even tries to deceive everyone. He is so foolish and bold.
After Lu Xinyang posted on Weibo, he stopped caring about anything else and focused on eating his watermelon pot. Every bite of vegetables tasted like watermelon.
Ji Rongyu suddenly understood. No wonder he put so much mustard in the dipping sauce. It turned out that he really had no intention of eating it. He was just pretending to eat it to satisfy his greed. He was very self-disciplined and didn't even need Ji Rongyu to help him confiscate the small sauce dish.
Seeing that he was eating happily, Ji Rongyu also picked up a piece of beef roll with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
What they both didn’t know was that not long after Lu Xinyang posted that Weibo, the comment section gradually became more interesting.
As a male star who debuted with funny videos, Lu Xinyang's work is his silly and handsome face. It is conceivable that under such circumstances, the people who follow him will not be as gentle and amiable as the fans of other seniors in the entertainment industry.
[Where? Why use watermelon as a stand-in? Report species discrimination.]
Did I click the follow button myself? That's impossible. Tell me the truth, did you buy followers for me?
[Although I don't want to be his fan, but seeing the above suddenly reminded me that this male celebrity has no face. So far, no one has thought of giving him a nickname or fan name.]
[I saw him while watching videos on the street. Why not just call him Malu?]
[Only my own suggestion: Bageya Road]
【Maybe you can call him Xi Yangyang? 】
【Yang Yang gets one point first】
[Why are you focusing on the beginning and the end? Doesn't anyone use the new characters? I vote for Labi Xiaoxin.]
[Then I will change my Weibo name to Meiya]
【Meiya +1】
【Meiya +2】
Although the group was small in number, they were very motivated. They quickly decided on the name "Sister Mei Ya" and applied for a one-stop service for super topics and the creation of an encyclopedia. Before Chang Xue decided on a photographer, Lu Xinyang's encyclopedia had a series of extremely embarrassing nicknames, and the photos in the encyclopedia album were directly screenshots from the live video.
After doing all this, fans took screenshots and posted them on the super topic to show off. By the time Chang Xue's team discovered the problem, the situation was already beyond redemption.
Tiredly rubbing a newly formed fine line at the corner of her eye, she said to her assistant, who was on a long-distance call discussing schedules with a famous photographer, "Hang up. I don't think Ansel is right for him."
Another assistant looked at the list in his hand and asked in confusion, "Who are you going to hire to shoot this? We've analyzed all the well-known photography teams we could work with, and Ansel seems to be the best choice."
"I don't think he's not good enough, I just think..." Chang Xue buried her face in her hands tiredly, "I think our male celebrities are too unremarkable... How can he deserve such high-end resources..."
Assistants: “????”
Lu, who had just smelled of hot pot, was now taking Ji Rongyu for a walk outside.
The small shopping mall was really close to the previous filming location, so they just walked around and arrived in just over ten minutes.
Ji Rongyu felt a little emotional. He had personally witnessed the construction of the scenery in front of him. When he was free, he and Lu Xinyang also took on some work for the art group. They would squat on stone bridges, manhole covers, power grid boxes and other places with paints to draw graffiti such as sheep taking bird eggs and small fish eating dinosaurs.
During the nearly one month of filming, many props were broken and rebuilt, used and modified, but the graffiti in the corner has only faded slightly and looks like it can last for at least a few more years.
