What Yang Huanyi didn't know was that while she was thinking about Shang Yechu, Shang Yechu was also thinking about her.
Shang Yechu was talking to Li Yi.
"Teacher Yang seems very busy," Shang Yechu said casually while drinking the cheap soda provided by the film crew.
Seeing that Shang Yechu was enjoying her drink, Li Yi curiously opened a bottle of soda. After sniffing it, Li Yi frowned critically.
"It smells awful," Li Yi said frankly. "It smells like saccharin."
Shang Yechu guessed that Li Yi was probably a young master who had descended to earth to experience the life of filming. Judging from Yi Tianzhao's caring attitude towards him, he might be a young master in the entertainment industry.
Shang Yechu had no intention of getting entangled with Li Yi about the saccharin soda issue, and continued, "Teacher Yang looks very tired, I'm really worried about her health."
"Are you very familiar with her?" Li Yi asked, puzzled.
"..." Shang Yechu took another sip of soda. "I really enjoy watching her TV dramas."
"Oh." Li Yi nodded. "It seems she's filming another movie."
"Hmm?" Shang Yechu raised her eyebrows in surprise. She had thought it would take some effort to steer the conversation to this point. "How did you know? Didn't you say you didn't know when we were rehearsing?"
"Yi... Someone told me." Li Yi looked curious. "Is it that good? You've been drinking it."
"It's alright." Shang Yechu put down the soda bottle and gently tapped the glass with her fingers. "Since Teacher Yang is going to film another movie, why not just film all the scenes from 'Tianji Tower' in one go? That way, we can free up more time."
Li Yi, unsuspecting, casually replied, "Because the script hasn't been finalized yet. The parts we're filming are already set, but there's still a lot to be decided. I—the original author Jiang Shang Nong Chao Sheng—am still holed up at home revising it."
Shang Yechu stopped tapping the bottle with her fingers, but Li Yi didn't notice.
"What if we film it ahead of schedule, and then Jiang Shang Nong Chao Sheng wants to change it? Wouldn't that be a double burden?" Li Yi finally couldn't resist the temptation of the cheap soda and took a small sip. "Wow—this is even worse than I expected. How did you manage to drink it?"
Shang Yechu downed the soda in one gulp, then smiled slightly, revealing two dimples: "Is there one? I'll go get you a bottle of my flavor." With that, she got up and left.
Li Yi stared at Shang Yechu's back for a while, something seemingly flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Shang Yechu got herself a new phone card.
Fortunately, the 2013 Renxing phone was also a dual SIM dual standby model. Shang Yechu inserted the new SIM card and painfully topped up his phone credit by 200 yuan.
Using the WiFi of the shop next to Grandma Hu's bookstore, Shang Yechu registered a WeChat account with her new phone number and bought a Weibo account.
After thinking for a few seconds, Shang Yechu changed her WeChat nickname and Weibo nickname to "Ai Sanwu's Kui Kui♡Feng Bao's Favorite".
Then, Shang Yechu opened Weibo, searched around, and found a beautifully drawn fan art of Xiao Fengque. She then took a screenshot and used it as the profile picture for both accounts.
In her Weibo bio, Shang Yechu wrote the following line:
[Xiao Fengque is my eternal ultimate favorite, my white moonlight | Three Five Eternal! I'm only on Weibo for Feng Bao♡♡♡ I politely decline any fans of the 1985 film, fans of Xiao Fengque's lameness, or fans of characters whose careers have collapsed! No one can portray the Feng Bao in my heart!]
"Sanwu" is the couple name of Xie An and Xiao Fengque, taken from their code names "Di San" and "Di Wu" in Tianji Tower.
Grandma Hu's bookstore has a wide selection of books. Shang Yechu found a complete set of "Phoenix Playing with Dragon" published in the 1980s, a complete set of "Phoenix Playing with Dragon" published in the millennium, a complete set of "Phoenix Playing with Dragon" in 2010 with a revised commemorative edition, and a complete set of "Phoenix Playing with Dragon" in 2015 with a collector's edition.
Shang Yechu took out his own quilt from the storeroom, spread it out on the ground, and then laid the books on the quilt.
The four sets of books, ranging from old to new, totaled eighty volumes, and were neatly arranged on the clean quilt, creating a magnificent sight.
Shang Yechu used her Renxing phone to take many photos of the books from 360 degrees. After taking the photos, she opened Meitu Xiu Xiu (a photo editing app) and began cropping and retouching them.
After trimming away the excess edges to ensure no bookstore information was visible, and adding numerous filters and cute stickers to ensure the style was kawaii enough, Shang Yechu carefully selected a nine-grid layout and posted it on the Xiao Fengque super topic on Weibo.
[Newcomer reporting in! Although I'm new to Weibo, I'm not a newbie to the official Weibo account!]
I've loved Fengbao since I was five, and this is my twentieth year of loving her!
The accompanying illustrations are eighty different versions of "The Phoenix Plays with the Dragon".
