Chapter 101 Tong Xinwei's First Meeting

Chen Mo had just finished dealing with the messages on his phone and checked the system.

He chatted with Chen Yuqi and Luo Yunxi backstage at the press conference this morning, and then received a system notification. He didn't draw the item until now.

[The system detected that the host was communicating with celebrity Chen Yuqi.]

[You have one chance to draw a keyword. Do you want to draw now?]

"Extraction"

[Draw successful! Obtained low-level attribute: Culinary Mastery]

Chen Mo checked the entry's description.

[Entry effect: From the eight major dishes to everyday meals, your culinary skills are already comparable to those of a professional chef.]

A master of cooking?

"It's alright, at least I won't starve to death in the future," Chen Mo thought, stroking his chin, when he heard a knock on the door.

He went over and opened the door.

It was Li Yitong. She was surprised to see Chen Mo and couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong? Aren't you welcoming me?"

"No, aren't you afraid of being photographed? There are too many people around."

Upon hearing this, Li Yitong waved her hand dismissively and said, "I won't be staying here tonight. I'll leave in a little while. We're the male and female leads, so it's normal for us to go over our lines."

'

Seeing her like this, Chen Mo couldn't help but tease, "Are you really here to rehearse your lines? You look more like a kitten sneaking off to steal some cream!"

"Hmph~ Mind your own business."

Li Yitong snorted, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him.

A short while later————

Li Yitong's eyes became hazy, and her lips parted slightly: "I want it~"

Chen Mo leaned close to her ear and whispered, "What do you want?"

Li Yitong's face began to flush. She glared at him, bit her lip, and finally blurted out, "I want it—"

Chen Mo lay on the bed looking at Yi Tong in his arms: "Remember to be careful when you're holding the knife tomorrow. Don't ruin your happiness for the rest of your life~"

Li Yitong knew he was referring to the scene they were filming tomorrow, where Xu Feng transforms into human form and Jin Mi tries to take his inner core.

"Don't worry, I'm going to cut you~"

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow upon hearing this; he wanted to see just how stubborn Li Yitong really was.

the next day.

The set built by the film crew was located in a mountain stream.

The crew was already busy as soon as it was dawn.

The stage crew was laying tracks, the lighting crew was adjusting reflectors, and the props crew was placing all the items in their designated positions.

Chen Mo was sitting in the dressing room, and the makeup artist was applying his makeup.

Today's look is a bit special – the armor Xu Feng wore when he made his appearance.

The golden armor, layer upon layer, each plate meticulously crafted, gleamed with a cold light under the lamp.

The makeup artist carefully put the hair crown on him and adjusted its position.

"Teacher Chen Mo, this suit of armor might be a bit heavy. You'll have to be careful when you're filming later."

Chen Mo nodded, stood up, and stretched his shoulders.

It's definitely not light.

But his physical fitness, as a "fitness enthusiast," allows him to handle it with ease.

He walked out of the dressing room.

A group of staff members had already gathered outside.

When Chen Mo walked out, everyone was stunned for a moment.

His golden armor gleamed in the morning light, making him look like a god who had stepped out of a painting.

The stagehand, Xiao Zhang, looked utterly astonished: "Holy crap—!"

The photographer put down his equipment, stared at Chen Mo for a long time before speaking: "Even if Xu Feng himself came, it would be like this."

Zhu Ruibin walked over, looking Chen Mo up and down, his eyes growing brighter and brighter: "Excellent! This is exactly the feeling! This is how the Second Prince of the Heavenly Realm should be!"

He turned around and called out, "Where's Yitong? Is she done?"

"Here it comes!"

Li Yitong ran out from another dressing room.

Today she was wearing a light blue tulle dress, her hair was loose, and she had light makeup on her face.

She stopped in front of Chen Mo.

She looked up at him.

His golden armor and noble demeanor made him seem to glow in the sunlight.

Li Yitong stood there, staring at him without blinking.

Seeing her staring intently, Chen Mo teased, "What's wrong?"

Li Yitong snapped out of her daze, her face flushing slightly: "Nothing—it's nothing."

She lowered her head and muttered softly, "Well—I'm a little bit stunned by how handsome you are."

The staff members nearby couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

Watching the interaction between the two, Zhu Ruibin smiled like an aunt: "Yitong, that's the right reaction! This is exactly the expression Jinmi should have had when she first saw Xufeng in his armor!"

Chen Mo looked at Yi Tong with her head down and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Let's go to the scene."

A mountain stream.

The clear stream flows gently down from upstream, leaping and splashing among the stones, making a crisp sound.

The banks are lined with lush trees, and sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the water.

Chen Mo stood by the stream, eyes closed, mentally rehearsing the scene.

This is the first time Xu Feng has appeared before Jin Mi in his true form.

Jinmi originally thought he was an injured crow transformed into human form, but he suddenly transformed and revealed his true form as Xu Feng, the God of Fire of the Heavenly Realm.

Zhu Ruibin walked over: "Chen Mo, Yi Tong, this scene is the first time Jin Mi sees Xu Feng's true form."

Jinmi needs to portray the process from shock to amazement.

Xu Feng, on the other hand, needs to maintain that aloof and noble demeanor.

But at the same time, you also need to feel a little bit attracted to her silly appearance.

Chen Mo nodded, understanding dawning on his mind.

Li Yitong took a deep breath and nodded.

"All departments, prepare!"

The site staff conducted a final check.

The photographer picked up his equipment.

The lighting technician adjusted the angle.

"Scene 1, Shot 1 of 'Ashes of Love,' Action!"

The clapperboard is struck.

Li Yitong squatted by the stream when a strange noise came from behind her.

Li Yitong turned her head, and for a moment, her expression froze.

Chen Mo stood not far away.

The golden armor gleamed in the sunlight.

Her long hair was tied up, adorned with an exquisite hair crown, and her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting.

He stood there like a god descending from the heavens.

Li Yitong's eyes slowly widened.

Her lips parted slightly, but no sound came out.

Her body froze, as if she had been frozen in place.

Chen Mo looked at her, a slight smile curving his lips.

The curve was very slight, but enough for Jinmi to see.

He raised his hand, his slender fingers making a light sweeping motion in the air.

He picked up the jade cup in his hand, brought it to his lips, took a small sip, and then looked down at Jinmi.

Following the current upstream, he saw Li Yitong squatting by the stream, her feet in the water, stirring the water with her toes.

Chen Mo's expression froze. He looked at the jade cup in his hand, then at her feet soaking in the water.

"you----

There was a hint of disbelief in his voice.

"You're using this water to wash your feet?"

Li Yitong snapped out of her daze, looked down at her feet, then looked up at him, her face innocent: "Yeah, what's wrong?"

Chen Mo narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then do you know what kind of water I just drank?"

Li Yitong blinked and thought for a moment.

"I know, didn't you say this water is very sweet?"

Then she seemed to realize something, and her expression changed from innocent to surprised, and from surprised to horrified.

"what!"

She stood up abruptly, forgetting that her feet were still in the water, and stumbled, almost falling.

Chen Mo instinctively reached out and supported her.

The two locked eyes.

They are very close.

They were so close they could see each other's reflections in their eyes.

The stream babbles, and the birds chirp.

The whole world was so quiet that only their heartbeats could be heard.

"Card!"

Zhu Ruibin stood up and clapped enthusiastically: "Great! Great! One take!"

Chen Mo and Li Yitong walked together to the monitor to watch the playback.

In the shot, Chen Mo's position was impeccable, and the scene was breathtakingly beautiful.

Then the camera shifts to a close-up of Li Yitong's feet in the water.

Chen Mo was stunned. The fair little feet were splashing in the clear water, and the sunlight shone on the water, making the little feet shimmer with a faint golden light.

Chen Mo couldn't help but swallow hard, and then he came to his senses.

Turning to look at the staff next to me, they were all stunned, because the scene was indeed very beautiful.

"Cough cough~"

Chen Mo couldn't help but cough twice, and everyone came back to their senses, looking away somewhat embarrassed.

"A bunch of old perverts, and they even have a foot fetish."

Chen Mo muttered something under his breath, but Li Yitong overheard him. She glared at him angrily and cursed inwardly, "This guy has the nerve to talk about others. He was even swallowing his saliva just now, and I heard him do it."

But this guy seems to really like this style, otherwise next time—"

Li Yitong stood there, lost in thought, watching Chen Mo walk towards the lounge to change clothes.

The golden armor still gleamed in the sunlight.

A slow smile spread across her face, and then she followed suit.

Next, they filmed the scene where Li Yitong wanted to kill a chicken to get the elixir. Chen Mo was lying on the bed, feeling a little nervous. Fortunately, Li Yitong's hands were steady and she didn't cause any trouble.

The day's filming went smoothly, but there were many scenes to film, and by the time we wrapped up, it was almost 9 p.m.

Chen Mo removed her makeup, changed into casual clothes, and walked out with Li Yitong, with Li Xiaoyu following behind.

As Chen Mo approached the entrance, he paused for a moment. A large, dark crowd had gathered at the hotel entrance.

There were probably about twenty fans, holding up light sticks and banners, standing in the night.

Upon seeing Chen Mo emerge, screams erupted instantly: "Chen Mo!!!"

Chen Mo nodded subconsciously, waved, and quickened his pace.

He had been filming all day and was a little tired, so he didn't want to deal with too many people. Li Xiaoyu quickly followed up and shielded him from the crowd.

But after walking a few steps, Chen Mo suddenly realized that Li Yitong hadn't followed.

He turned around and saw Li Yitong standing at the door, looking at the group of fans.

Her gaze swept across the crowd, then she frowned.

"It's so late—"

She whispered to herself, then turned and walked toward her fans.

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, and Li Yitong had already walked up to the fans.

The crowd fell silent for a second, then erupted in even louder screams: "Snow!!!"

"Yi Tong is so beautiful!!!"

Li Yitong smiled and took the letter handed to her from the front row: "Thank you for coming. It's so late, have you eaten yet?"

The fans responded all at once: "Yes, we ate it!"

"I haven't eaten—I've been waiting for Teacher Chen Mo for too long—"

"We'll go eat in a bit!"

As Li Yitong received the letter, she smiled gently and said, "It's too late, it's not safe. How will you get back later?"

Fans exclaimed, "Let's take a taxi!"

"I have some girlfriends to carpool with!"

Li Yitong nodded and continued receiving the letters, while Chen Mo stood not far away, watching her.

She lowered her head and carefully signed each photo that was handed to her, while also making heart shapes with her hands in response to the fans' gestures.

Occasionally, she would look up and smile at her fans.

Sometimes I would chat with them for a bit, asking them where they came from and whether they had to go to work or school the next day.

Her hair swayed gently in the night breeze.

Chen Mo suddenly felt that this scene looked familiar.

He recalled that at the opening ceremony yesterday, she had done the same thing, carefully receiving letters, signing them, and expressing her gratitude.

At that time, I thought she was quite virtuous.

Now—he thinks Xuexue is just too cute.

Seeing Chen Mo standing there in a daze, Li Xiaoyu whispered to him, "Brother Mo, do you want to go over there too?"

Chen Mo snapped out of his daze and was about to walk forward when his gaze suddenly fell on a figure in the crowd.

It was a young girl, holding a cell phone, wearing a white hoodie, standing at the edge of the crowd.

It's Tian Xiwei.

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment.

What's she doing here today?

Chen Mo subconsciously opened his phone and found that Tian Xiwei had indeed sent him a message that afternoon.

She said she was auditioning nearby today for a drama called "Waiting for You in the Long Time," and she wanted to stop by Chen Mo after the audition.

However, Chen Mo's phone is with Li Xiaoyu today, so he hasn't had a chance to check it yet.

Chen Mo put away his phone and walked over. When the fans saw him coming, they screamed even louder.

As Chen Mo received the letter and signed it, he slowly moved towards Tian Xiwei. When he reached her, he stopped.

Tian Xiwei looked up at him, smiled, dimples appeared on her face, and her eyes shone like two stars.

"Chen Mo, Teacher Chen—long time no see!"

Even though she had seen her before, her voice still trembled a little this time.

Chen Mo smiled at her: "We meet again, Xiwei."

When Tian Xiwei saw Chen Mo smile at her and call her name, her heart started beating even faster.

Just as Chen Mo was about to speak, Li Yitong suddenly walked over, stood in front of Tian Xiwei, and asked her with a smile, "Are you a fan of Chen Mo?"

Tian Xiwei nodded, seemingly surprised that Li Yitong would speak to her, and a little nervous: "Yes—yes."

Li Yitong glanced at her, then took out a photo of herself, signed her name, and handed it to Tian Xiwei: "Here, I'll give you my autograph too."

Tian Xiwei took the photos and became even more excited: "Thank you, Teacher Yitong! Teacher Yitong is so beautiful~"

Seeing her excited expression, Li Yitong couldn't help but smile, her eyes filled with tenderness. Then she turned to the other fans around her and asked, "Did everyone get an autograph?"

The fans nodded in agreement.

Li Yitong glanced at the time; it was almost ten o'clock. She frowned, then took her phone out of her pocket.

"It's too late, you should hurry up and take a taxi home."

She opened WeChat and looked at Tian Xiwei: "Add me on WeChat."

Tian Xiwei was stunned for a moment, not expecting the woman to add her on WeChat: "Huh?"

Li Yitong handed over her phone: "Add me on WeChat, I'll transfer the money to you, and you can help distribute it among everyone."

Fifty yuan each, for a taxi back.

The surrounding fans instantly erupted in shock: "Huh???"

"Teacher Yitong, no need!!!"

"We have our own money!!!"

"No, no, no!!!"

Li Yitong ignored their refusals and just looked at Tian Xiwei: "Hurry up, add me."

Tian Xiwei hurriedly pulled out her phone and scanned Li Yitong's QR code.

Friend request approved.

Li Yitong lowered her head and operated the machine for a few moments, then looked up: "It's turned around. 1300, 26 people, you should take it quickly."

Tian Xiwei stared blankly at the transfer record on her phone screen: "Teacher Yitong—this—"

Li Yitong smiled and then called out to them, "Go home early, don't worry your parents. Be careful when you're chasing after celebrities in the future."

After she finished speaking, she turned to Chen Mo and asked, "Shall we go?"

Chen Mo stood there, looking at her. Under the lamplight, her smile was faint, but her eyes shone.

"Chen Mo?"

Li Yitong called out again.

Chen Mo snapped out of his daze: "Yeah, let's go."

The two walked together toward the parking lot.

Behind her, the screams of fans continued: "Goodbye, Teacher Yitong!"

Goodbye, Teacher Chen Mo!

"Thank you, Teacher Yitong!"

"Teacher Yitong is the best!"

As Chen Mo walked to the car, he suddenly stopped and looked at Li Yitong: "Why?"

Li Yitong was stunned for a moment: "What? Why?"

Why give them money?

Li Yitong thought for a moment: "It's too late. Most of them are students, and some may have come from out of town. Taking a taxi back this late will cost a lot of money."

She paused for a moment, then added, "Besides, they came to see you. Shouldn't I help take care of them?"

Chen Mo looked at her.

Her eyes shone brightly in the night.

He suddenly reached out and ruffled her hair.

Li Yitong was stunned for a moment, then her face turned slightly red.

She whispered, "What—"

Chen Mo didn't speak.

He just smiled, then opened the car door: "Get in."

Li Yitong looked at him, and the corners of her mouth slowly turned up.

She got into the car.

The car drove into the night.

Chen Mo leaned back in his seat with his eyes closed.

But the scene from earlier kept replaying in my mind.

Li Yitong stood among her fans, earnestly signing autographs, speaking, and thanking them.

"Fifty yuan each, take a taxi home."

"Shouldn't I help you take care of it?"

Chen Mo opened his eyes and glanced at Li Yitong beside him.

She was looking down at her phone, the light from the screen reflecting on her face.

Noticing his gaze, she looked up: "What's wrong?"

Chen Mo shook his head: "It's nothing."

They arrived at the hotel quickly, and the two got out of the car and went inside.

Take the elevator.

The elevator is going up.

Li Yitong suddenly said, "Chen Mo."

"Um."

"You know what? I had a friend who used to be a fan of celebrities."

Chen Mo looked at her.

"Back then, she would go to the hotel where her favorite celebrity was staying every day and wait just to catch a glimpse of him."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "Once, when he came out and saw them, he ignored them completely, got into his car, and drove off."

Chen Mo remained silent.

Li Yitong continued, "She cried for a long time that night."

She looked at Chen Mo: "So when I see those fans, I think of my friend."

The elevator doors opened.

The two walked out.

Chen Mo stood at the door of her room, looking at her.

"You did a great job today."

Like a child receiving praise, Li Yitong smiled happily: "Really?"

"Um."
