Luo Shimiao said irritably, "It saw other parrots wearing necklaces on a short video platform and said it wanted to buy one too, so it asked me for 50,000 yuan."
"A few days later, I received the package. Something seemed off about the packaging. A necklace worth 50,000 yuan isn't exactly cheap, so why was the packaging so cheap? Then I checked the order details on their phone, and lo and behold, it was only 9.9 yuan with free shipping! They made a killing off me!"
Hao Yun covered his mouth and chuckled, then looked at Xiao Lü and said, "You're quite good at making money."
Little Green covered its eyes with its wings and whispered, "It's so-so."
Luo Shimiao: "You have money but are reluctant to spend it, so you come here to fleece me. You're a parrot, not a miser, so please remember your place!"
"Me? Me? I'm just a bird, where would I get any money? My wallet is emptier than my face, I have no money, no money, I really have no money!"
"You don't need to be so nervous if you don't have your wallet on you. Besides, I didn't ask you to pay me back, so why are you so anxious?"
When Xiao Lü heard what she said, the tension in her heart dissipated.
Once money goes into its pocket, it can never be returned.
While Luo Shimiao was drinking milk tea, Xiao Lü flew to eye level with her and said, "Mommy, I'm your son. If you and Xiao Niannian go bankrupt in the future, I'll go out and perform to support you."
"Cough cough..." A violent coughing sound echoed in the room.
Hao Yun quickly put down his chopsticks and patted Luo Shimiao's back: "Did you choke on a pearl?"
Luo Shimiao clutched her chest and shook her head. After a moment, she said, "It's nothing, I just choked." Her eyes swept over the culprit: "Don't call me Mommy, it's too damn scary."
Little Green: "Okay, Mom."
"......"
It was nearly 11 p.m. when the two finished eating and cleaned up the trash. Most people were already asleep, and the entire dormitory area was quiet.
Luo Shimiao set her alarm, climbed into bed, and turned to look at the woman reading a book: "Sister Yun, are there any more books? I'd like to read some too."
"Yes, I'll get it for you in a bit." Hao Yun walked to the wardrobe, squatted down, opened the suitcase lying on the ground, and took out a book.
She brought two books with her to pass the time when she was bored.
Luo Shimiao took the book she handed him.
The quiet room was occasionally punctuated by the soft sound of turning pages.
Hao Yun saw a memorable quote and was about to share it with Luo Shimiao when he turned around and found the book covering her face; she was clearly asleep.
"Forehead......"
It hasn't been long since then; he probably fell asleep in less than ten minutes.
She tiptoed out of bed, carefully removed the book from Luo Shimiao's face, placed it on the table along with the book in her hand, and then turned off the light to go to sleep.
The next day, at 5:20 a.m.
The urgent alarm clock woke the two from their deep sleep.
The sky outside the window was still dark and shrouded in fog.
"Good morning." Luo Shimiao stretched as she sat on the bed.
Hao Yun replied, "Good morning. Do you want to use the restroom first, or should I go first?"
"You go first, I need to calm down."
"Okay." Hao Yun turned on the light and went into the bathroom.
Luo Shimiao stared blankly for a while, then jumped out of bed to change his clothes.
A few minutes later, she opened the door to let the cameraman in, saying, "The broadcast starts at 5:30 a.m. and ends at 7 p.m., a total of more than ten hours. Luckily it's not a 24-hour broadcast, or I wouldn't be able to sneak a bite."
At 5:30, their figures appeared in the live broadcast window, and at the same time, the temple bells rang.
Xu Xingliang was drying his hair, his handsome face showing the languor of early morning, which caused a flurry of comments from fans in the live stream.
Cao Lu applied skincare products in front of the mirror in the bathroom.
Bai Yunqing went downstairs and ran around the house, attracting the attention of many people.
There are four buildings in the entire dormitory area, all of which are two stories high. Some people stood in the corridor to watch her run out of curiosity.
She ran until five minutes before her morning class started before stopping.
Today from 6:00 to 6:50, I practiced the fitness exercise – Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade).
Hao Yun noticed that Luo Shimiao's clothes were bulging and asked curiously, "Miaomiao, what are you carrying in your arms?"
Luo Shimiao pulled out a section and said, "Nunchucks."
"Hmm..." She didn't know what to say for a moment, and finally uttered two words: "Let's go." Having been in the industry for so long, she had never seen a female celebrity use nunchucks on a variety show.
......
In a corner of the temple's front courtyard, all five guests had gathered. The corner was chosen because filming would disturb others. The others stood in the spacious center.
Luo Shimiao watched Master Huikong slowly approach, a smile appearing on his lips. It seemed that this meditation retreat would be led by an old monk.
Huikong clasped his hands together and said, "Good morning, everyone. Today I will teach you how to practice the Eight Pieces of Brocade. Now, follow along with me."
"First, stand upright with your chin slightly tucked in, chest slightly concave, and abdomen drawn in, relaxing from the top of your head to the soles of your feet. Take three natural breaths, and after adjusting, begin the first section, 'Holding Up the Sky with Both Hands to Regulate the Three Burners'."
"Use both hands to guide the movement, inhale through your nose and exhale through your nose, interlock your fingers..."
The five of them followed his movements and practiced. Little Green considered itself one of them, flying up to Luo Shimiao's head, its wings opening and closing intermittently. When it got tired of playing, it used Luo Shimiao's head as a nest and slept directly on it.
Everyone was quite clumsy the first time, but their movements became much smoother the second time.
After the second round of practice, Master Huikong told them to rest for 5 minutes.
Hao Yun raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead and said breathlessly, "I'm so tired. I've seen Baduanjin online before, but I didn't expect it to be so tiring to practice!"
Luo Shimiao glanced to the right and said, "Someone's legs were shaking when they squatted down just now."
"If you practice Baduanjin right after running, it's hard not to shake." Hao Yun knew who she was talking about.
