After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 470 Jiang Hanying's New Toy, Killing Two Birds with One Stone Underwater

After having lunch, Jiang Hanying went directly to Cuiwei Lake after leaving the lounge.

She strolled over here in the morning while waiting for her turn, and the lake was still bare back then.

Looking at it now, it has changed drastically.

Although they are mostly simulated lotus flowers and leaves, they are made to be realistic enough. Standing on the shore and taking a look, they really evoke the imagery of the ancient poem, "The lotus leaves stretch to the sky, an endless expanse of green; the lotus flowers, bathed in sunlight, are a unique shade of red."

A small wooden boat was tied to the lakeside, which would undoubtedly be the prop she would use later.

Pei Yuan had just taken a picture of the lake with her phone when she caught a glimpse of someone stepping onto the boat.

Her heart skipped a beat. "Sister, stop!"

Jiang Hanying paused for a moment, then turned around and saw Pei Yuan running towards her.

"I'll go up and familiarize myself with it first."

Pei Yuan's face was flushed from running. After stopping, she still grabbed the arm of the person in front of her with one hand, a little worried. "If you rush onto this kind of boat without someone holding it up, it's easy to capsize."

The answer is that she had once flipped over, and at that time she was completely submerged. If it weren't for the safety officer who quickly rescued her, she would have definitely drowned.

She still remembers the fear and helplessness she felt back then.

Yue Zhuo arrived just one step slower than Pei Yuan, followed by a string of staff dressed in green, with only two small holes around their eyes.

"Sister, they said they're looking for you."

Seeing Jiang Hanying looking this way, the green-skinned leader introduced himself: "Teacher Jiang, we are here to assist you in filming this scene where you fall into the water. We'll also teach you how to row a boat, and there are a few real lotus flowers, leaves, and seed pods in this lake. When we start filming, you can pick a few of them, and we'll show you the location first."

He paused, then added, "Don't be afraid. My companions and I will help you and the boat stay stable in the water. You just need to paddle forward with confidence, and leave everything else to us. We will also be around to protect you when you fall into the water, and we will absolutely ensure that you are not in any danger."

After listening to this, Pei Yuan released Jiang Hanying's arm, nodded to the green-skinned men, and said politely, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

"You are welcome."

After saying that, the group filed into the water and reached out to hold onto the edge of the small wooden boat.

The leader looked up and said, "Teacher Jiang, you can board the boat now. It will sway a little, so please lower your center of gravity. If you're scared, try not to look at the water."

Jiang Hanying looked down at him.

Since you can't see the face, all you can see are the eyes peeking out from those two small holes.

The man felt a chill run down his spine under her gaze and instinctively blinked.

Before they could even react, the small boat in front of them suddenly sank.

Jiang Hanying jumped onto the boat quite decisively, and even bent down to pick up the oar at her feet.

The small wooden boat swayed uncontrollably under her movements, but the people standing on the boat didn't seem scared at all.

If I had to put it another way, it's more like getting a new toy and being eager to explore how to play with it.

The man's heart sank upon seeing this.

Aren't you afraid of water?
As one end of the oar dipped into the water, and with the green-skinned men pushing in unison, the small wooden boat swayed away from the shore and headed into the lake before Jiang Hanying even had a chance to exert any effort.

Pei Yuan watched intently from the shore, initially unable to contain her nervousness. She didn't know how deep Cuiwei Lake was, but judging from the color of the water, it must be at least two meters deep. If she accidentally fell in, she wouldn't be able to touch the bottom!

Only after watching the small boat sway gently with the waves, yet the people on board remained perfectly still, their backs seemingly poised and graceful, as if they could even perform a set of acrobatic moves with the oars, did I finally feel completely at ease.

Turning her head, she saw that the person next to her also looked eager to try it out, and a thought popped into her head: "Yue Zhuo, do you know how to row a boat?"

“Yes,” Yue Zhuo nodded without hesitation. “There’s a big lake in our mountains, and there’s a unique vegetable growing there. Not only do the people in our village love to eat it, but many people from outside also buy it. They say it’s highly nutritious and can even fight aging. It’s just that the yield isn’t very high, otherwise we could get rich just by selling vegetables. I’ve been rowing to the lake to pick vegetables since I was a child, and I can even hold my breath underwater for a long time.”

Pei Yuan: "..."

If I had known earlier I wouldn’t have asked.

She's definitely the worst!
Jiang Hanying had already stepped onto a small wooden boat and arrived near the center of the lake. In front of her were several real lotus flowers, still covered with water droplets.

"Teacher Jiang, these are the plants. Please note their locations."

Jiang Hanying glanced around at Zhen Hehua again and nodded. "Okay, I'll remember." "Do you want to practice rowing again?"

"No need, go back."

Her interest came and went quickly; once she realized there was no challenge, the new toy lost its appeal.

Not to mention that there were so many people surrounding the small boat, which made it even less interesting.

The small boat returned along the same route.

Upon reaching the shore, before the green-skinned men could make a move, Yue Zhuo had already crouched down and firmly hooked one hand onto the bow of the boat. At the same time, Pei Yuan reached out her hand, and Jiang Hanying grasped her hand and nimbly jumped ashore.

The director was standing on the shore with his hands behind his back. When he saw Jiang Hanying come up, he asked, "How did it go?"

"Take the picture quickly!"

"Alright, you're more impatient than I am. Come on, everyone get ready."

There were three shots in total this time.

A close-up shot of a small wooden boat, with several crew members filming from another, larger boat, and an aerial shot as well.

After clearing the area, Jiang Hanying jumped back onto her small wooden boat and rowed out onto the lake.

However, this time I have to portray the indignation of being forced to pick lotus flowers in the lake and the fear of the lake water, and my body also has to follow the character's lead and sway a bit.

At the same time, in the lakeside pavilion on the shore, Consort Xiao, played by Xin Linglong, turned her head and gave her personal maid a wink.

The palace maid immediately understood and quietly left.

A moment later, a dark figure disappeared into the water from the secluded spot.

After picking the real lotus flowers as per the plot, Li Minghe, played by Jiang Hanying, couldn't wait to turn back the way he came. However, before he could row back very far, an unexpected event occurred.

The small boat beneath her feet seemed to have hit something, lurching violently and causing her to tumble forward. Luckily, she didn't plunge headfirst into the water.

As she clung to the gunwale, still shaken, to calm her racing heart, a wet hand suddenly emerged from the water, precisely grasped her wrist resting on the gunwale, and with a forceful pull, dragged her entirely into the water.

A scream lingered, but it didn't reach the shore.

underwater.

Underwater photographers were already waiting in the water.

After dragging the person into the water, the mastermind intends to kill them, but they also need to make it look like they drowned. Therefore, they don't use any weapons and just keep pushing the person into the water.

Li Minghe didn't want to die, so he struggled desperately underwater, looking for an opportunity to fight back.

The actors were focused on filming, and the green-skinned figures floating around them dared not relax, constantly watching over the actors' safety.

Unbeknownst to them, one of the green-skinned men swam up behind Jiang Hanying.

The photographer, who was not far away, saw it in the lens, but assumed that the person had swum closer because he was worried about Jiang Hanying's safety, and continued to take pictures without paying attention.

A bright green hand quietly reached behind Jiang Hanying, avoiding the camera.

Just as it was about to bypass the armpit and continue its attack, the eyes in the hole couldn't help but get excited.

Although Jiang Hanying did not turn around, she had already noticed someone approaching from behind her.

The actor in front of her was still working hard to get a take, but then this reckless bastard showed up. So she simply changed her initial plan, took a deep breath and dived more than half a meter. When her feet touched the bottom of the lake, she quickly pushed off and pulled out the hairpin from her hair. Using the reaction force and the upward force, she stabbed the black-clad man who had followed her down to find her in the neck, successfully turning the tables!

At the same time, his left foot, seemingly flustered but actually steady and ruthless, kicked backward sharply, striking the green-skinned man between the legs, who was also looking down into the water.

Although the resistance of the water offset some of the force, it also depends on who kicked it.

The green-skinned man instantly experienced unbearable pain.

One of them couldn't help but scream in agony and curled up like a shrimp in the water.

The underwater photographer, who happened to be filming this scene, whether intentionally or unintentionally, was left speechless:

My lower body feels cool!
