Chapter 082
In the bathroom, Pei Yubai was going crazy.
He's going to kill that stupid dog! When the show is over, he's going to kill that stupid dog!
Pei Yubai rubbed his head vigorously, his scalp was numb and hundreds of hairs were knocked out. After finally washing away the smell of dog urine, Pei Yubai rinsed off the foam and came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
The program crew reserved the entire ski resort, so there was almost no one there.
The bathroom was also deserted. Pei Yubai came out to change his clothes and saw a staff member from the program team running towards him in a hurry.
Pei Yubai recognized him. He was the assistant of Yan Xi's PD team and his surname was Liu.
Assistant Liu's work clothes were covered with food residues. He followed the PD to shoot Yan Xi today and only had time to eat a hot meal just now. Because he was not paying attention, the lunch box fell on his clothes. Now he came to the bathroom to rinse.
The lockers in the ski resort bathrooms are all rented, otherwise there would be nowhere to put clothes and belongings, but Assistant Liu did not bring any cash and no deposit to rent a locker.
"Second Master Pei," Assistant Liu whispered, "Can you help me look at something for a while? I'll just take a quick shower and be out in five minutes!"
Pei Yubai was blowing his hair. "Put it on the chair. I'll watch it for you."
Assistant Liu was overjoyed. The spilled food residue was sticky and he felt like he was being pickled in it.
"Thank you, Mr. Pei!"
Assistant Liu took off his clothes and rushed into the bathroom.
Pei Yubai was still blow-drying his hair in front of the sink when he suddenly heard the sound of an intercom coming from Assistant Liu's pile of clothes.
Drama crews or variety show crews will use this thing. Now that technology is advanced, many crews will use mobile phones to communicate, but the Queen City Ski Resort is located in a remote area. Director Yu was worried about the poor signal, so he took out the walkie-talkie.
Pei Yubai picked up the walkie-talkie and heard Director Yu's voice coming from the other side, "Xiao Liu? Can you hear me? There is news from the ski resort that there will be a snowstorm later. Please inform Yan Xi's team that the filming must be completed within an hour."
"Hello? Xiao Liu? Did you receive it?"
There was a glimmer of cunning in Pei Yubai's eyes.
He pressed the PTT button and lowered his voice, "Got it, over."
Assistant Liu moved quickly, just washing off the oil stains on his body, and then came out wrapped in a bath towel. After all, it was working hours, so he couldn't delay too long. He changed into new clothes, took the walkie-talkie and other items, thanked Pei Yubai again, and then returned to his team.
From beginning to end, Pei Yubai didn't say much.
…
Coming out of the bathroom, Pei Yubai changed into a clean down jacket. He stood in the ski resort, and outside the huge French window was an endless expanse of snow. The sky and earth were all white, and it was so desolate to the bone. In the distance, there seemed to be dark cumulus clouds, rolling in the clouds and approaching quietly.
Even though it was such a bad weather, Pei Yubai was in a good mood. He was about to accompany Zhou Qingyu when he suddenly heard a groan from behind.
Pei Yubai turned around and saw Ye Luoyi walking slowly towards him with her ski poles. There were no cameras from the production crew around, so Pei Yubai immediately stepped forward to support Ye Luoyi.
"Yiyi, what's wrong with you?"
Ye Luoyi looked pitiful, tears welling up in her eyes, "I don't know how to ski, and I sprained my ankle accidentally."
"Where's Pei Hanli? Aren't you in the same group with him? Didn't he send you to the infirmary?"
"How can I bother Mr. Pei! It's just a minor injury," Ye Luoyi said quickly, "Yubai, don't worry, don't you still have to accompany Wenyu?"
Ye Luoyi lowered her head in disappointment, "You go and accompany her, I can do it alone..."
Pei Yubai felt heartbroken. His beloved girl was injured, but he couldn't be by her side. He had to accompany a woman he didn't love!
Pei Yubai picked up Ye Luoyi and said, "I'll take you to the infirmary first!"
Ye Luoyi's body suddenly hung in the air. She screamed in surprise and immediately hugged Pei Yubai's neck.
This was the first time the two had been in close contact since they had participated in the show. Pei Yubai felt Ye Luoyi's warm breath and the pleasant smell of her perfume. His heartbeat quickened again, beating like the intense drum beats in a disco.
Pei Yubai couldn't help himself and bent down to kiss Ye Luoyi.
Ye Luoyi avoided his lips and said, "Second Master, he's outside."
Her coy look completely pleased Pei Yubai and also aroused his strong desire to win. Pei Yubai's lower abdomen tightened, and his heart seemed to be tickled by a small hand.
"Okay, let's talk about it when we get to a place where there's no one."
Pei Yubai carried Ye Luoyi all the way to the infirmary of the ski resort.
There was no one in the infirmary. Pei Yubai put Ye Luoyi on the bed and examined her ankle.
The atmosphere is ambiguous, and the air becomes charming and sticky.
When neither of them noticed, someone quietly reached out and locked the door of the infirmary.
——
On the other side——
Pei Hanli crossed the snow hills and came to the area where Zhou Qingyu was skiing.
On the ski platform, Pei Hanli saw Zhou Qingyu dancing like an elf in the snow hills. The sunlight fell on her, shining with golden light. Zhou Qingyu controlled the skis nimbly, drawing graceful arcs, and the snow waves she raised seemed like rhythmic golden ribbons.
The scene was breathtakingly beautiful.
--if
Ignore Yaozu who is following behind her like a fool.
Pei Hanli's sharp gaze followed Zhou Qingyu closely, and suddenly became gentle.
The PD, carrying a camera, chased after him breathlessly, "Boss Pei, why are you in this area? This is against the rules!"
Pei Hanli shrugged his shoulders. "What's wrong with that? My partner is missing, so I went out to look for him, and I happened to find this area. Is that okay?"
The PD wanted to argue, but the assistant next to him pulled him back and said, "This is President Pei, why don't you just forget it..."
Rules are fixed. Today's partner exchange activity was proposed by this ancestor! Director Yu is afraid of him, so you better be quiet.
PD is aware of the current situation and chooses to keep silent after this reminder.
Pei Hanli put on silver goggles, held up his two ski poles, and leaped forward. He ignored the 45-degree platform, and the height of more than ten meters quickly converted all his potential energy into kinetic energy. At an extremely fast and smooth speed, Pei Hanli rushed in front of Zhou Qingyu!
Zhou Qingyu took off her goggles. The snow was glaring and everyone was wearing thick coats, but Zhou Qingyu could easily recognize that the person in front of her was not Pei Yubai.
"Pei Hanli? Aren't you in the same group with Ye Luoyi?"
Pei Hanli skied handsomely, like a male peacock spreading its tail, and after showing off his skiing skills to his heart's content, he stopped steadily in front of Zhou Qingyu.
"I don't know where she went." Pei Hanli looked indifferent, "Where's your travel consultant? Why isn't she here?"
"Who knows?"
Zhou Qingyu found it funny when she thought about Pei Yubai being peed on by Yaozu. She just hoped that he would wash it clean and not come back too soon.
Pei Hanli asked, "Aren't you going to look for him?"
"He doesn't deserve it."
"What a coincidence," Pei Hanli said, "I don't want to find a partner either. Why don't we go together?"
Zhou Qingyu took a deep look at Pei Hanli for the first time.
After thinking for a moment, she smiled, her laughter as sweet as a silver bell.
"OK!"
——
Beginner ski slope here
Yan Xi had no idea that her daughter had been targeted by the villain. In order to complete the task of exchanging partners as soon as possible, Yan Xi was still studying hard.
The wound caused by being pinched by the car door the night before had already scabbed over and had little impact on skiing. Zhou Yanci taught her a lot of skiing techniques, and Yan Xi also knew them by heart.
But theory and practice are completely different things.
After trying again, Yan Xi didn't slide more than two meters before she plunged into the snow pile with a splash!
Zhou Yanci: "..."
He was helpless. It didn't make sense. He remembered that Yan Xi was very smart. How could she not learn it after studying for so long? How difficult could skiing be? Could it be harder than getting a perfect score in physics in the college entrance examination?
But for Yan Xi, it seems to be true...
I understand the principles and the theory, but the actual operation is a mess.
The two of them kept sliding forward, with Yan Xi sliding and falling all the way, and Zhou Yanci pulling her out of the snow pit from behind. What was thought to be a romantic skiing trip for two ended up with Yan Xi planting radishes and Zhou Yanci pulling them out.
Gradually, we have slid to the edge of the beginner ski resort. The slope beyond that is no longer within the ski resort and is very steep and dangerous.
Zhou Yanci reminded Yan Xi, "Be careful, it's almost time for us to go back."
Yan Xi nodded, but didn't care.
The main thing is that so far, the longest she has skied is no longer than 10 meters. How could she possibly ski beyond this range!
In the distance, the wind was howling and dark clouds were approaching.
Zhou Yanci noticed that the weather was not right. There was the sound of howling wind and snow all around, and the visibility was much lower than when he first arrived. It was already blurry fifty meters away.
He let Yan Xi practice on her own for a while, then turned around and slid neatly to PD's side.
The PD didn't notice Zhou Yanci coming over, and a few people were still whispering -
"The signal was fine just now. How could there be a problem?"
"I don't understand either, but the live broadcast has been interrupted for a while and there is no signal on my phone."
"No way, the equipment is broken?"
Zhou Yanci frowned, "Is there a snowstorm, so the signal is interrupted?"
The PD was shocked. "That's impossible! If there was a snowstorm, the ski resort would definitely notify Director Yu, and Director Yu would also tell us!"
The PD was carrying a camera and it was inconvenient for him to communicate with Director Yu. He asked Assistant Liu who was in charge of communications, "Did you receive any notification from Director Yu today?"
Assistant Liu was at a loss, "No!"
But even though the PD and Assistant Liu said so, Zhou Yanci could feel that the weather was getting worse. There was no signal on the phone at the ski resort, and there was no wifi either. Zhou Yanci urged Assistant Liu, "Contact Director Yu and ask what's going on now."
Assistant Liu immediately took out the walkie-talkie.
——Even if the mobile phone can’t receive a signal, the walkie-talkie can still be used.
But before Assistant Liu could say anything, Director Yu's urgent voice came from the other side, intermittently, "Xiao Liu... Xiao Liu... why haven't you come back yet... The other groups of guests have returned to the rest center of the ski resort... Hurry back... The blizzard is coming... Did you hear me..."
At the same time, Zhou Yanci saw the roaring wind and snow in front of him, like a giant white beast, rushing towards them with its fangs and claws bared. The strong wind blew up the snow particles, hitting people's faces painfully and blurring their vision.
Zhou Yanci was startled and immediately looked at Yan Xi.
Yan Xi had already slid more than thirty meters and continued to slide forward.
The white beast behind her was almost catching up with her, but she was unaware of it. Her voice was still full of joy, "Zhou Yanci! I learned how to ski~ Look, I learned it!"
She had already run out of the safety of the ski resort.
Zhou Yanci's heartbeat almost reached his throat, "Yan Xi! The snowstorm is coming! Come back quickly!"
Yan Xi then realized that the surroundings were desolate and the wind and snow were like tiny blades, cutting her delicate face. She wanted to brake, but this was a steep slope and she was a novice. The strong inertia carried her forward continuously with the howling wind!
In just a few seconds, Yan Xi was swallowed by the giant snow and wind beast!
The staff were shocked. The visibility around the ski resort was no more than 20 meters. They didn't know where Yan Xi had skied to. If something happened to the guest on the show...what would happen to the show?
The next second, a black figure appeared in front, and Zhou Yanci was like a sharp sword, piercing into the roaring snowstorm without hesitation!
He was moving extremely fast, diving at full speed, but in a moment, his figure was engulfed by the wind and snow and could no longer be seen.
The PD and other staff were all dumbfounded.
The disappearance of Yan Xi was not enough...now even Zhou Yanci is missing?
Director Yu's voice came from the intercom, "Xiao Liu... a snowstorm is coming... what's the situation over there..."
The PD took the intercom and spoke tremblingly, "Director Yu, something happened! It's a big deal!"
——
Yan Xi was in a panic.
She had just learned how to slide, and had no idea how to brake. There was nothing in front of her, and the slope of the snow trail was steep. Yan Xi could feel that her speed was getting faster and faster, and the wind in her face was not wind, but the sickle of death.
Yan Xi went over the ski brake techniques in her mind and wanted to do the same, but her limbs were frozen and she had no control at all.
But in such an extreme situation, her speed would only get faster and faster. If she continued to slide, no one would know where she would go, and it would be difficult for the rescue team to save her.
Yan Xi gritted her teeth, gave up sliding, and fell to the side decisively!
Her body fell heavily to the ground. The snow was soft and had a certain cushioning effect, but the speed in her body had not yet been reduced, and it kept rolling her down!
After rolling for more than ten meters, the situation ahead suddenly became clear.
There was a huge rock in the direction where Yan Xi was rolling down. It was like a Land Rover, blocking Yan Xi's direction steadily.
Yan Xi cursed inwardly, dropped her ski poles, and held her head tightly with both hands.
Seeing that Yan Xi was about to hit the boulder, Zhou Yanci controlled the snowboard and rushed over at high speed!
He made a sharp turn, and the skis changed the snow track and slid over the boulders. The change in the contact objects brought about huge friction, and the huge kinetic energy under the impact was also turned into nothingness when the skis shattered.
Zhou Yanci hugged Yan Xi tightly and fell to the other side of the boulder.
The untreated snow was full of uneven stones, which made people's skin hurt. Zhou Yanci hugged Yan Xi tightly to prevent her body from touching the snow.
The two rolled on the ground for several circles and finally stopped.
Zhou Yanci's originally neat assault suit became tattered, with holes scratched by stones and covered with mud and dust, but Zhou Yanci didn't care about that and immediately checked Yan Xi in his arms.
"Yanxi! Yanxi!"
Yan Xi fainted.
Zhou Yanci examined her body and found no other injuries except for a few small scratches on her cheeks. He estimated that she had fainted because she was nervous and frightened just now.
Zhou Yanci breathed a sigh of relief.
The wind was still howling, and visibility around was no more than ten meters.
He didn't know how far he and Yanxi had skied, but they should still be near the ski resort. If he stayed where he was, he would be frozen to death.
Zhou Yanci carried Yan Xi on his back and looked for a place to shelter from the wind and snow.
——
“Tick…”
“Tick…”
In the dim light, Yan Xi opened her eyes.
What came into view was a tall dome, and she seemed to be in a cave.
The cave is not big, with an irregular entrance and jagged rocks standing abruptly at the edge of the entrance. The walls inside the cave are made of rough rocks, with water dripping slowly on them.
The air was damp and cold, mixed with the smell of earth. But Yan Xi felt very warm. Zhou Yanci held her in his arms, using his body temperature to isolate her from the severe cold outside.
Yan Xi looked up and saw that Zhou Yanci's eyes were tightly closed, with a layer of frost on his thick eyelashes.
Didn't she almost hit a boulder before she passed out? Was it Zhou Yanci who saved her?
Zhou Yanci's assault jacket was torn and tattered, and the scabbed wound on his ankle began to bleed again. The hot and wet blood flowed into his trouser legs and was almost dry.
Yan Xi's nose felt sore and her eyes were red.
Why did he save her? He was still a patient, why did he play the hero? She was just a passerby, at most she had a broken bone, didn't he know his own situation?
Yan Xi nudged Zhou Yanci, "Zhou Yanci? Zhou Yanci?"
His body was still warm, but not that hot, and the exposed parts of his fingers were frighteningly cold.
Yan Xi panicked, "Zhou Yanci, wake up, don't scare me!"
After pushing him twice, Zhou Yanci showed no reaction. Yan Xi was frightened and started to cry.
Zhou Yanci suddenly reached out, grabbed Yan Xi's waist, and let her press against his chest.
"Don't make a noise, he's not dead."
Yan Xi was startled, and hurried forward, seeing Zhou Yanci slowly opening his eyes. His amber eyes under his glittering eyelashes looked like white snow. His breath was a little weak, but he was not completely unable to speak.
"Save your energy and wait for the rescue team to come and save us."
Yan Xi was relieved to see that Zhou Yanci was safe and sound.
"You scared me to death!"
Zhou Yanci raised his eyebrows. Even though the situation was extremely dangerous, there was a smile in his eyes.
"Worried about me?" he asked.
Yan Xi said angrily, "You are talking nonsense!"
Zhou Yanci looked at her and his smile deepened.
Outside, the wind and snow were howling, and the fierce hurricane hit the outer wall of the cave, making people tremble with fear.
Yan Xi's heart was pounding, and she asked anxiously, "Can the rescue team find us?"
Zhou Yanci explained, "We are not far from the ski resort, and the PD also saw the direction we disappeared. The rescue team only needs to follow the direction and they will definitely find us in less than half a day."
This is normal.
Yan Xi also knew that under normal circumstances, if something happened to the eldest son of the Zhou family, the rescue team of the Queen City would definitely be dispatched. The scope was determined, so even if there was heavy wind and snow, finding the person would not be a problem.
But what if... the plot intervenes?
The unexpected snowstorm and the two people trapped in the cave, everything went as planned. If the rescue team got lost and found them two days later, Zhou Yanci would have been frozen to death.
"Do you have any other idea?" Zhou Yanci asked Yan Xi.
Yan Xi blinked at Zhou Yanci and took out a positioning beacon from the pocket of his assault jacket.
The yellow positioning beacon was only the size of a palm and had a bright color. Yan Xi had rolled all the way and it was still intact. Yan Xi pressed the emergency help button. If nothing unexpected happened, the rescue team would be able to accurately locate them through this thing.
“Done!”
Zhou Yanci was surprised, "You're wearing this when you're recording a variety show?"
Yan Xi was speechless. Originally, she had not intended to bring anything with her, but knowing that Zhou Yanci would also be on the show, she specifically asked the manager of the Royal Hotel for it this morning.
It's too easy for accidents to happen at a ski resort.
If Yan Xi were the plot, her first choice would be to attack Zhou Yanci here.
But Yan Xi didn't explain in detail, as saying too much would make the explanation unclear.
"Just grab it, just in case."
…
They activated the locator beacon and waited for the rescue team to find them.
Yan Xi curled up and leaned against Zhou Yanci's arms. There was limited oxygen in the cave, so they couldn't make a fire. They could only cuddle up to each other for warmth.
Yan Xi was very scared at first, but she felt at ease in Zhou Yanci's arms.
She murmured and whispered, "Zhou Yanci, I'm glad you're okay."
Zhou Yanci was helpless, "It was you who almost hit the rock, don't you want to think about yourself?"
"We are different."
I'm just an ordinary person, at most I'll just break some bones, but if it were you, you would die.
Fortunately, you are okay.
Zhou Yanci only heard Yan Xi say one sentence, and then there was silence. He lowered his head and saw Yan Xi curled up, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and tears glistening in the corners of her eyes.
His throat rolled.
The desire to destroy in my heart is stirring again.
Almost instinctively, Zhou Yanci took off his gloves, pressed his broad and gentle palms on the back of Yan Xi's head, and bent down to kiss the tears at the corners of her eyes.
The tip of the licking tongue lightly touched the corner of Yan Xi's eye, and Yan Xi's eyelashes trembled.
Even though the temperature was zero degrees, Yan Xi felt her face burning hot and her earlobes were so red that they looked like they might bleed.
Yan Xi hesitated, saying what she had just said, "Zhou Yanci, don't come to save me in this situation in the future... Your own life is the first priority, I will be fine..."
Zhou Yanci responded absentmindedly, while kissing her from the corner of her eye to the tip of her straight nose, and then to her round lips.
Little by little, sometimes kissing, sometimes sucking.
Yan Xi's breathing became disordered and her heart beat very fast.
Zhou Yanci placed his hand on her waist and squeezed it lightly. Yan Xi moaned and felt Zhou Yanci's tongue tip sliding in like a fish.
She pressed her hands against Zhou Yanci's hard chest. This was almost her last sanity, but the exchange of saliva between their lips and tongues was gradually destroying her sanity.
The cold wind was howling outside the cave, and the wind and snow were like giant beasts, devouring all the temperature in the world. But in that small corner of the cave, the temperature was scorching hot.
Zhou Yanci's Adam's apple rolled and a drop of sweat fell there. Although he was pale, weak and sickly, Yan Xi actually felt that Zhou Yanci was extremely sexy.
She was almost suffocated by the kiss. Zhou Yanci let her take a breath and then kissed her again.
After inhaling oxygen, Yan Xi's dizzy head cleared up for a moment, and she immediately pushed Zhou Yanci away.
"Stop kissing!"
If he kisses her again... Yan Xi feels like something bad is going to happen.
Zhou Yanci hugged Yan Xi and rubbed his nose against her cheek again.
"Still cold?"
He has a low voice, which is clear and pleasant.
Yan Xi was speechless, "Is there a way to keep warm like this?"
"Don't like it?" Zhou Yanci's hand fell on her waist, "But your body is very hot."
Yan Xi:!
"It's okay! I'm not cold anymore! That's enough!" Yan Xi said quickly.
Zhou Yanci smiled. He didn't want to do anything else. It was not appropriate to do anything in such a cold day and in the suburbs.
The two of them just lay together quietly, just hugging each other like this, and they felt very warm.
Yan Xi summoned the system in her heart——
"Tong, this blizzard has something to do with the plot, right?"
If it was just an ordinary snowstorm, the system should have been able to alert her, but even the system didn't know about it.
[That should be it!] The system popped up, [Director Yu checked the weather forecast when he first selected the location. Theoretically, there wouldn't be any extreme weather this week. Who knew a blizzard would suddenly come!]
[Host, what did you do just now? ]
[I have a problem with my data flow recently, and I was just locked up in a small dark room! ]
[When you were leaving for Queen City two days ago, I was also locked in a small dark room at the gate of Zhou's house! How strange! ]
Yan Xi's face flushed. "Why would an artificial intelligence like you care so much? Stop asking!"
