The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 86 Angry
Perhaps because Gu Lanxi was on the live stream tonight, during the final encore, the songs that fans strongly requested were all related to her.

Gu Lanxi listened to the whole thing from beginning to end. After saying goodbye, she hung up the phone, which was almost out of battery.

She put it in the bedroom to charge before taking a shower.

The boiling water in the pot was still very hot from the embers in the stove. She scooped it into a red plastic bucket, carried it to the yard, pumped some well water to dilute it, and then carried it to the bathroom before taking off her clothes.

Clean clothes were folded and placed in a bag, then hung on a nail behind the door. The wooden door was bolted shut, and the light bulb, which looked like it had been used for many years, cast a dim yellow light.

The quiet mountain village became lively because of the arrival of the film crew, and now you can still hear the laughter of young people.

Summer insects chirped around the houses, and the distant barking of dogs could be heard.

The sound of watering suddenly stopped.

Gu Lanxi closed her eyes, tilted her head back slightly, and placed the hot, wet towel directly on her face.

I could almost hear Lu Nanting humming in my ears:

I'll walk with you through the spring of March.
Summer arrives in July
I'm looking forward to our autumn.

I'm not afraid of the cold winter.

......"

Lu Nanting has a great voice; his singing is very story-telling.

The thought of how he had longed for every day they spent together brought waves of sadness to my heart.

Gu Lanxi pulled off the towel, took a deep breath, and let her lungs breathe in the warm, moist air, which calmed her down.

Aunt Wang got carsick yesterday, vomiting almost the entire way. Today, she spent half a day with the group and quickly adapted to the environment. Gu Lanxi made dinner for her, not wanting to cause her any trouble.

After taking a bath, she went to the yard to wash and hang up her clothes before going back to her room to sleep.

Before going to sleep, I hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help sending Lu Nanting a "Goodnight/Heart" message.

After Lu Nanting finished singing on the first day, Zhang Mingyuan immediately took him back to the hotel. Afraid that he wouldn't get enough rest, Zhang Mingyuan even turned off his phone for him. Only after he fell asleep did Zhang Mingyuan climb into the outer room to sleep.

The next day, after replying to Lu Nanting's good morning greeting, Gu Lanxi crossed the courtyard to brush her teeth by the ditch and saw Aunt Wang carrying a copper pot covered in soot from the bottom of the pot towards the main room.

"Aunt Wang, what's for breakfast?"

Sweet potato porridge, boiled eggs, and stir-fried shredded potatoes.

Seeing her brushing her teeth, and remembering that the two assistants the company had arranged wouldn't arrive until the afternoon, Aunt Wang put breakfast on the table and went to the yard to take down the clothes that had been drying last night.

One end of the clothesline was tied to the pomegranate tree in the yard, and the other end was tied to the iron bars of the window. When the clothes were taken down, the clothesline would start to swing back and forth.

"I'll be going to the film set with you this morning. The clothes are dry now, but it's best to bring them inside."

The two brought a lot of things with them this time. When they went to film, the doors and windows would be locked. For safety, she even brought a lock with her.

After washing up, Gu Lanxi returned to the main room, sat down, peeled the eggshell, and nodded in agreement.

When she was twelve and living under the stairs, someone stole her underwear. She was still young then and only thought that the underwear cost her three yuan and fifty cents, so she beat up the old widower to settle the matter.

As I grew older, I realized that there are all kinds of people in this world, and the thought of this incident made me feel disgusted. So I became extremely cautious in this regard.

"These white sweet potatoes are soft and chewy, with a really unique texture. We'll bring some home with us!"

"I can buy it online. It's available online. I'll buy it later."

"Let's talk about it later. Maybe I'll get tired of eating here by the time I go back." It's very inconvenient to buy vegetables in the mountains, so Gu Lanxi was prepared to eat whatever was available in the fields. It was a pleasant surprise that the film crew was willing to help her bring some vegetables up the mountain when they went to buy supplies.

Even so, there aren't many options, let alone rare ingredients.

After finishing my meal, I arrived at the film set feeling refreshed. While getting my makeup done, I overheard the makeup artist gossiping with the costume girl:

"Seriously, even though I've been in this industry for several years, this is the first time I've ever heard of something like this. It's truly mind-blowing!"

"That short essay was clearly written by a professional writer. Wow, so sharp!"

"In this industry, things are a mix of truth and falsehood, and no one can really tell. Let's wait and see how things develop before making any judgments."

Gu Lanxi couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Whose melon is this? What happened?"

Since entering the entertainment industry, it's been like living in a melon field; sometimes it's actually quite enjoyable.

The makeup artist gestured for her to tilt her head back slightly, and while drawing her eyebrows, she briefly explained the process to her:
"Take Xiao Han for example. Suddenly a bunch of women came out and revealed that he really liked to invite female fans to his house to play, and then he would find all sorts of reasons to force them to have sex with him, and then he would not take responsibility."

"In the beginning, in order to keep people engaged, we tricked them into dating us, making all sorts of promises, like helping them debut or making them famous, but they would always disappear after a while."

"There was another one who was pregnant. The chat logs were really explosive. He insisted that the child she was carrying wasn't his. To deny it, he relentlessly smeared the girl, used all sorts of manipulative tactics, and even casually suggested that she have an abortion, saying it would affect his career. But the girl was stubborn and insisted on giving birth to the child. Now they're in a lawsuit fighting for child support."

Gu Lanxi wasn't familiar with Xiao Han and wasn't interested in such trivial matters, so she listened and put it aside, then took out the script and started reading.

In today's scene, Duan Wei continues to keep things from Luo Yang, engaging in a battle of wits with Luo Yang's human trafficker parents. In the process, she discovers that the evil in this village goes far beyond what she initially thought.

Gu Lanxi had already memorized the script perfectly, but today's scenes had several parts that would really test her acting skills, so she needed to quickly study the script again.

Seeing that she was calm, the two staff members wanted to continue talking about Xiao Han's disgusting deeds, but they decided not to say it in front of her.

Perhaps this innocent child doesn't even understand what they're saying!

That’s all.

Xiao Han's house collapsed, and it collapsed extremely quickly. The signal is poor in the mountains, so watching videos and catching up on dramas may be difficult, but going online is still possible.

Upon receiving the news, the entire crew spent the whole day discussing it.

Gu Lanxi inevitably overheard it as well.

It's so embarrassing to even bring up the other person's various sexual fetishes!
I wanted to discuss my thoughts on this matter with Lu Nanting, but after thinking about it, I decided not to.

After all, Lu Nanting isn't that kind of person. If she brings it up herself, she might misunderstand and think Lu Nanting is overthinking things.

To her surprise, instead of bringing it up herself, Lu Nanting sent her a message:
[You see? People who are unfaithful in relationships never end up well!]

So, what did it mean to say this to her on purpose?

Could it be that you suspect she's having an affair on set?

Gu Lanxi did not reply.

Seeing that the concert had already started, I immediately shut down my phone.

Then he pulled a long, thin bamboo from the woodpile, set it up in the yard, and started practicing.

Practicing Wing Chun's Six and a Half Point Pole in this open space is perfect; working up a sweat will make all your bad moods disappear.
