Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 235: Ancient Ways of Heating
"what happened?"

Seeing Meng Bai frowning and looking at the dashboard, Ni Ni asked curiously, "Why is there no response? Is the car broken?"

"may be."

Meng Bai unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car, opened the front hood and checked the situation.

Seeing this, Nini also got out of the car.

He walked to the front of the car, stared at the accessories and circuits for a long time, nodding from time to time.

"Can you understand?"

Could it be that the girl is an expert at pretending not to be able to drive?

"I don't understand." Ni Ni shook her head, then sighed, "So this is what the hood looks like!"

"..."

Meng Bai closed the hood speechlessly, walked aside and made a phone call.

There is a time difference of less than two hours between Dunhuang and northern Beijing, so even though it is almost eight o'clock, there is still some light.

However, as the sun set, the temperature gradually dropped.

When Nini went out to change clothes, she didn't expect to come back so late, so she only wore a shirt and a small jacket, and now she already felt a little cold.

After waiting outside for a while, I felt a little overwhelmed and went back to the car.

After a long time, Meng Bai finally came back.

"A good news and a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"bad news?"

"The car is indeed broken, and I definitely can't fix it with my current skills."

Nini smoothed her hair. She was mentally prepared for this, so it was not difficult for her to accept it.

"What about the good news?"

"There is a signal here, so I just sent the location to the crew and asked them to find someone to pick us up."

Thanks to the country's large-scale infrastructure, even in this desolate Gobi Desert, the mobile phone signal and network are full.

Of course, the main reason is that this place is not too remote.

"That's good."

Nini breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there is electricity and internet, the sense of security of a mobile phone is more important than anything else.

Next, just wait.

but……

"How long will it take them to get here?"

Meng Bai opened the map and looked at the navigation: "About an hour."

There is no way, the main feature of the northwest is that the area is vast. Any two adjacent towns on the map can catch up with the distance between two coastal cities.

Fortunately, more than an hour is still acceptable.

The two got into the car, Meng Bai reclined the driver's seat halfway back, and then lay down at an angle.

Nini on the other side followed suit and also lay down.

Needless to say, it's quite comfortable.

The sun has almost completely set, and the surrounding temperature has dropped from over 20 degrees during the day to around 4 or 5 degrees.

Nini leaned back in the passenger seat, folded her arms across her chest, and wrapped her clothes tightly around her.

"The air conditioner won't turn on either?"

"This is a gasoline car. We have to start it before the heater can be turned on."

Meng Bai glanced at her: "Why, are you cold?"

"Kind of."

Nini nodded: "But it's okay."

After saying that, she smiled brightly again, indicating that she could still hold on for the time being.

Meng Bai got up and searched the car, but unfortunately found nothing.

The crew driver knew that the big boss was going to use the car, so he cleaned it thoroughly before delivering it, not even leaving a piece of toilet paper behind.

"Hold on for a while." Meng Bai said, "If it's really cold, you can go down and run a few laps."

"..."

What kind of straight man can say this?

The last ray of light disappeared behind the sand dunes, and the sky and the earth became completely dark.

Meng Bai turned on the small light in the car. Fortunately, the circuit system was not damaged and could at least provide some light.

"Hu——" Nini exhaled white breath and moved her body. She felt her body was already cold.

Meng Bai glanced at her, stood up, took off his coat and handed it to her.

"It's okay. I'm fine."

Meng Bai spread the clothes on her: "No, you are more important than me now."

Ni Ni was delighted when she heard this, but before she could say anything, she heard Meng Bai continue, "Don't catch a cold or fever, otherwise you won't be able to catch up with the filming schedule."

It doesn't matter if the supporting actors are not there, but it will be a big problem if the leading actors are not there.

We can't really let her go for a run, right? It's dark here, and it would be even more troublesome if she got lost again.

"…Thank you so much!"

Nini fiercely picked up the coat, but after thinking about it, she moved closer to the driver's seat.

Then, she stretched out her clothes to cover both of them at the same time.

Meng Bai turned his head and looked over.

Nini's face felt hot, and she quickly said, "This way everyone can be covered, and it will be warmer if we get closer."

This reason was very reasonable. Meng Bai didn't say anything, but just leaned towards the passenger seat.

Now the two of them were closer and could even vaguely feel the warmth from each other.

Anyway, we are so close, so a little more doesn’t seem to matter.

Thinking of this, Nini moved her body again, this time sticking directly to Meng Bai.

Meng Bai naturally felt it as well, but he didn't say anything, nor did he move away, just letting it go.

The dim little light emits a faint glow, bringing a little light.

The carriage was silent except for the irregular breathing sounds, which seemed to contain surging energy.

"what--"

Nini suddenly chuckled, breaking the silence.

"What are you laughing at?" Meng Bai asked.

"It reminds me of the TV series I watched when I was a kid." Ni Ni said with a smile, "In those costume dramas, there is often a plot where the hero and heroine are trapped under a cliff or in a dungeon, and they hug each other for warmth."

"Well, an ancient way of keeping warm."

Ni Ni ignored Meng Bai's words, raised her head, looked at him and whispered, "Teacher Meng, is it really useful?"

The girl has hinted at this point, and it would be a bit too much for Meng Bai to pretend not to understand.

"You'll know if it works or not after you give it a try."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and reached under Nini's body, turned around and held her in his arms.

Feeling the warmth coming from all around her body, Nini's eyes sparkled with spring-like spirit.

No matter what you do, the first step is always the hardest. But once you get through it, the rest will usually follow naturally.

Just like now, the man and woman in the car looked at each other and their breathing became rapid.

Meng Bai leaned his face forward slightly, and this action obviously broke the "confrontation balance" between them.

Before he could continue, Nini suddenly leaned forward and kissed him actively.

The biggest feature of this girl, besides her long legs, is her big mouth.

At least among the girls Meng Bai knows, she is the oldest.

Therefore, the feeling it brings is also unprecedented.

Lying sideways was always a little uncomfortable, so Meng Bai put his arms around Ni Ni's slender waist and carried her from the passenger seat to the driver's seat.

Because he was half lying on the recliner, Nini could conveniently sit astride Meng Bai.

"call--"

The two separated briefly to breathe. Meng Bai looked at the woman's bright face close to him and said with a smile, "How are you? Are you warm?"

"is acceptable."

Nini looked at him closely: "Can't there be more?"

"The crew should be here soon. We don't have enough time."

"Then wait until we get back?"

"can."

"Okay." Ni Ni said, then leaned down again, "I'll make some interest first."

“I think I should be the one saying this.”

"it's the same."
