Chapter 194 Crystal Princess (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)
Liu Yifei immediately started baring her teeth and brandishing her claws.

That's so humiliating!
They're either idiots or morons!

The two started playfully wrestling in the hot spring pool.

In the midst of playful banter, physical intimacy is naturally inevitable.

This is something that neither Gu Bei nor Liu Yifei can control.

When Liu Yifei finally stepped out of the pool, her usually cool face was completely flushed. Clearly, she wasn't unaware of the contact, but was pretending not to know.

What would you like to see?

Gu Bei sat down on the sofa, picked up the remote control, and asked Liu Yifei.

"Pixar animated films, I suppose."

Liu Yifei answered casually.

Besides reading at home, she also...

I also enjoy watching cartoons and horror movies.

Gu Bei then remembered something, took out a piece of paper from the bathrobe he had worn, and handed it to Liu Yifei, who was still drying her hair.

"what is this?"

Liu Yifei looked puzzled.

Gu Bei naturally took the hairdryer from Liu Yifei and helped her dry her still damp, ink-black hair.

Liu Yifei then took the paper with her free hand and discovered that it contained a song title.

She stubbornly insisted on handing the song back: "No, I didn't even win the bet, how can I take yours!"

"This is not our bet!"

Gu Bei gently ruffled Liu Yifei's hair, ensuring it was exposed to the hot air as much as possible. "Our bet is a love song, but this isn't a love song; it's a song about a fairy tale."

Liu Yifei enjoyed Gu Bei's actions.
She began to look at the song on the note with a slight look of confusion.

Let it Go?
After reading a few lines of lyrics, Liu Yifei immediately realized that Gu Bei was right; this was indeed not a love song.

It begins by talking about hiding painful emotions, then moves to no longer suppressing emotions (Let it go), and then to the emotions of reshaping oneself.

Even without considering the melody of the song at all,
These simple lyrics alone resonated deeply with Liu Yifei!
The song's mood perfectly matched her mood.

However, she is currently in the initial stage of hiding her pain. She can only hide all the harm done to her by the outside world and cannot let the perpetrators feel triumphant.

However, she also realized that this was wrong and is consciously trying to stop suppressing herself.

Did Gu Bei write this song to make me confront my own inner self?
"How about it?"

Gu Bei turned off the hairdryer and asked with a smile, "Do you still like this song?"

"like!"

Liu Yifei turned around and nodded heavily.

Then, with bright, starry eyes, she gazed intently at Gu Bei and couldn't help but say, "I like the song, but I like you even more!"

A sudden confession,
That sweet, childlike voice sent a shiver down Gu Bei's spine.
He reached out and touched Liu Yifei's head, responding to her feelings: "I like you too!"

Liu Yifei nudged Gu Bei's hand with her head, feeling a surge of happiness in her heart. She wished this happy moment could last a little longer.

Subsequently,

Holding the paper in her hand, she began to softly chant: "Let it go..."

After a simple humming

Liu Yifei discovered that this song wasn't just about good lyrics,

The melody is even better, light and cheerful, very suitable for spreading. "Actually, this song is not just a song, but also has a story about a fairy tale adaptation," Gu Bei said, sitting back on the sofa and watching her engrossed in the song.

"what story?"

Liu Yifei's eyes lit up. "Quick, quick, tell me!"

She jumped onto the sofa, snuggled into Gu Bei's arms, found a comfortable spot to settle down, and stared at Gu Bei with bright eyes.

"This story is adapted from Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale 'The Snow Queen'."

Gu Bei put his arm around Liu Yifei and began to tell the story of "Frozen" with a smile: "Let me tell you, in a kingdom surrounded by the sea and with picturesque scenery..."
The King and Queen had two lovely princesses named Crystal and Anna…

Liu Yifei heard her name appear in the story.
She nudged Gu Bei a little shyly: "Isn't it disrespectful to Mr. Andersen to use my name?"

"Nope!"

Gu Bei shook his head. "In the original story, the Snow Queen didn't have a name; she was just called the Snow Queen. I just gave her a new name."

Don't you think your name is a perfect match for the Snow Queen?

It seems... okay?
Crystal is as clear and transparent as snow, and they are indeed similar in nature.

but……

In the original novel, "The Snow Queen," isn't it about the friendship between Kai and Gerda, who are separated because of the villainous Snow Queen, and how Kai is ultimately saved by Gerda's tears?

Liu Yifei immediately realized: "So I'm the villain?"

"I know you are in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry yet!"

Gu Bei smiled and continued telling the story of Frozen: "The older sister, Princess Crystal, was born with ice magic, but she has been isolating herself for a long time because she was afraid of hurting others. The younger sister, Princess Anna, is the opposite; she is optimistic and enthusiastic."

During the coronation ceremony, the Crystal Princess's ice magic went out of control, accidentally freezing the entire kingdom. Overwhelmed with guilt, she fled into the snowy mountains…

Liu Yifei listened quietly to the entire story.
This deepened her understanding of the song "Let it Go".
They can also understand the Crystal Princess in the story and the core theme of 'love and acceptance' in the story.

"I wish this story could be made into a film."

Liu Yifei felt somewhat regretful.

Unfortunately, this kind of story is too fairytale-like.
They can only make animated films like Pixar.

Making it into a live-action movie is actually less likely to be well-received.

"I do have such an idea."

Gu Bei found the paper and pen at the resort, activated his drawing skills, and began to draw.

In just a few minutes,
An animated version of Crystal Princess leaps off the page, dressed in a princess gown, aloof and proud.

If you compare her to Liu Yifei, you can tell at a glance that this is the Pixar animated version of Liu Yifei.

"So beautiful!"

Liu Yifei took the painting from Gu Bei's hand and cherished it.

Seeing her happy expression, Gu Bei couldn't help but smile.

Next year is the 2008 financial crisis, and many animation studios in Hollywood will be short of funds, which is a good opportunity for him to invest in an animation studio.

"Is it really possible to make it?"

Liu Yifei looked at Gu Bei expectantly, "If you need money, just tell me, I'll support you!"

This time, she didn't care if the character looked like her.

Although it's a bit embarrassing, it would be great if we could really turn this Crystal Princess into a classic animated character.

This was extremely appealing to Liu Yifei, who loves animation.
