Huayu 02: The Days of Extreme Pulling and Rolling with the Fairy

"I...I strained my leg...it hurts, Xie Jin."

"Serves you right. You caused trouble after just a few drinks, even trying to do somersaults. I should have left you here to embarrass yourself properly."

People can laugh when they're speechless, and Xie Jin couldn't hold it in any longer.

Miss Liu stared intently at Xie Jin as he mocked her, her big eyes filled with grievance.

She immediately turned into a crybaby, squeezing out three words: "You bastard."

Seeing her pitiful look, Xie Jin's heart softened. "Hey... come on up, I owe you one..."

"Hmph, you think my money is so easy to borrow?"

Without thinking, Xie Jin started running wildly with Xiao Jiumengzi on his back.

Although her drama "The Story of a Noble Family" has not yet premiered, its popularity has already begun to rise due to pre-release publicity and promotion.

Most people will never forget her small face after seeing it just once.

In addition, local newspapers reported that Bai Xiuzhu and Wang Yuyan were filming in Tianjin, and people came to see them every day.

Given her current popularity, Xie Jin dared not take a taxi for fear of being recognized.

Fortunately, it was late at night and there weren't many people around. The film crew's hotel was only two kilometers away.

He jogged along, his brow unsteady, until he was drenched in sweat; the alcohol had worn off completely...

The young woman behind me, Ms. Liu, was actually sleepy.

"Hey, are you even capable? Four beers and you're already like this, as heavy as a lamb."

  

Ms. Liu forced her eyelids open, pinched his waist hard, and then pinched his mouth shut with her other hand.

"What are you babbling about? From now on, you're not allowed to speak. Keep your mouth shut and listen to your creditor. If you speak again, you'll get extra interest."

Not long after, I heard a soft, even snoring sound coming from behind me...

Xie Jin didn't know how long she had been running, but she finally arrived outside the hotel.

........

"Get down, you're so heavy, go to the hotel and don't sleep."

Miss Liu groggily opened her eyes and, emboldened by the alcohol, grabbed Xie Jin's ear and twisted it: "You dare to yell at me? I think you can't tell the difference between a king and a queen."

His tongue was so thick he could barely speak, yet his hands were still so strong...

Four beers are way too powerful! How did they even resort to such underhanded tactics...?

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Let go! Or I'll throw you down!"

"No way!"

During the struggle, Miss Liu sobered up a little.

She seemed to feel Xie Jin's belt catching on the inside of her long underwear.

It's not just a feeling, it's a hook!

She panicked immediately, her voice softened and she started to cry.

"Xie...Xie Jin, don't move."

Xie Jin's ear was still being pulled, and it really hurt. She grimaced in pain and cried out, "Let go!"

"I told you not to move!" Xie Jin didn't notice the panic in her voice...

Sizzle.....

Mr. Xie froze, and subconsciously looked down.

A splash of snow-white, dazzlingly white.

The air became quiet.

The two looked at each other, and the young lady's face changed from red to white, from white to green, and from green back to red.

She forced a sob out of her throat, said a few words, and ran away.

"I'm never playing with you again!"

Xie Jin awkwardly rubbed her nose, standing there bewildered in the wind...

"Who would have thought this..."

··········

··········

Xie Jin woke up very early in the morning because she wanted to shoot some empty shots of the dawn breaking. It just so happened that there was a strong wind in the middle of the night, and the morning glow was particularly beautiful.

The empty shot was done in half an hour.

Ning Hao accompanied the film crew and art department as they packed up the equipment, saying, "Be careful, don't drop or damage it!"

The film crew has a lot of stuff; they're loading it into a truck downstairs at the hotel right now.

Liu Yifei vaguely heard the noise, woke up, and sat up abruptly.

"Oh no, I'm late!"

I was startled to be late, afraid that people would think I was being arrogant.

I glanced at the notice board above the bed.

Phew~ I finished filming yesterday...... No wonder Mom didn't call me....

Hehe~ Sleeping in is so nice, unlike Xie Jin who has to go out early in the morning...

etc.

Xie Jin?

Suddenly, many images flooded into Ms. Liu's mind...

"I've already eaten four beers!"

"I'll do a somersault for you!"

Oh!

"I'm never playing with you again!"

Xiao Liu patted his forehead.

I dared not open my eyes, hoping it was just my imagination.

Yesterday must have been a dream, right...?

Opening her eyes, Miss Liu turned her head and looked at Xie Jin's coat by the bedside.

It's not a dream...it's not a dream!!

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

She buried her head in the blanket, her small ear sticking out was bright red, and she kicked the blanket hard with her feet.

What did I do...? Alcohol really is the devil!

It was all Xie Gouzi's conspiracy!

Thinking about her show yesterday, she doesn't even have the courage to see Xie Jin now.

There was nothing ambiguous or shy about it; there was only deep regret for my self-destructive performance art.

He has such a sharp tongue, he'll definitely laugh at me...

It's so embarrassing. I just wanted to see what he was up to and make fun of him.

Why are you drinking alcohol when everything is fine?

To make such a fool of myself in front of the person I hate the most.

The thought of being carried back yesterday and having to go through all that trouble made Liu Yifei feel utterly hopeless.

He probably doesn't think I'm interested in him, or that I'm trying to seduce him...

No way! We've already made a bet; whoever falls for it is a bastard, and I absolutely cannot be that little bastard!

Xiao Liu peered out the window, watching the film crew below. Xie Jin was also busy... Completely giving up, there was no way to escape...

No, I have to get out!

Anyway, the wrap party is over, and the teachers all went home yesterday, so it's normal for me to leave now.

We have to get out of here!

Ms. Liu quickly packed her luggage, put on sunglasses, and wrapped her face with bandages.

Hurry downstairs to the room and pull Liu Xiaoli up. "Mommy, let's go back. I've finished talking to Xie Jin, we can just leave."

"I haven't packed my things yet."

"I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Liu Xiaoli rubbed her eyes.

Good heavens, is the sun rising in the west?

I've never seen my daughter so diligent, packing her own luggage and unpacking her things.

After packing her small suitcase, her daughter urged her to wash up and dragged her downstairs.

He's really grown up! This child has really grown up!

Xiao Xie is right, she really made the right choice in experiencing life.

Just because the girl has grown up, making this show was worthwhile...

Liu's mother was still in a daze when she was dragged to the hotel lobby and pointed to Xie Jin in the distance: "I'll tell Xiao Xie."

"No, no, I've finished speaking."

"Why are you in such a hurry, child? At least let your mother use the restroom! We haven't even checked out of the hotel yet!"

Liu Yifei didn't dare linger in the lobby; she had already spotted Xie Jin in the distance...

"Mommy, give me the car keys, I'll put my luggage in the back."

Although Liu's mother found it a bit strange, she still gave the car keys to her daughter.

Go ahead.

Little Liu slipped away like a rat, taking advantage of Xie Jin's obstructed view while she was helping to carry things, and quickly made her escape.

I finally got into the van, and immediately felt completely at ease.

Phew... Perfect evacuation

·······

·······

After checking out of the hotel, Liu Xiaoli walked out of the hotel carrying her small bag.

Ning Hao said with a bitter face, "Director, I have something to tell you. The brothers bought too many local specialties, and our bus is about to burst."

"How many more people can fit?"

"one"

Xie Jin was speechless. The food in Tianjin was delicious, but that didn't mean there was no room left in the car.

He laughed in exasperation: "I told you to take it easy! You've gone crazy buying fried dough twists, haven't you? Who the hell bought these steamed buns? Who buys steamed buns by the basketful?"

The art team members were all grinning foolishly, "What can we do? People from Tianjin just know how to eat. Even their steamed buns are better than ours."

Xie Jin was just about to take Ning Hao with her to the train station.

Liu Xiaoli's voice came from behind: "Director Xie, Director Ning, come with me, there's room in my car."

Ning Hao smirked and darted into the car. "Aunt Liu, I won't go. Could you please show Director Xie around?"

Liu Xiaoli's recent impression of Xie Jin has been incredibly positive.

Firstly, he had witnessed Xie Jin's abilities and prestige within the group.

It's rare to see a young person who, at 21, can withstand the pressure and manage such a large operation.

She has met many outstanding second-generation individuals, but few are as ambitious and driven as this one.

In Xie Jin, she could see a kind of tenacity that was crazy about changing her fate and climbing upwards.

These kinds of young people can find a way to make a living even if there's only a small opening.

It is true that outstanding children often come from humble backgrounds.

Secondly, Xie Jin treated me with great respect and care within the group.

Although she had been a dancer when she was young, this was her first time experiencing film and television, and the experience of acting in a movie this time was fantastic... It's making Liu Ma a little addicted.

Most importantly, she felt that Xie Jin hadn't crossed any boundaries with Qianqian, which was the most important thing to her.

Of course, there are some things she doesn't know either...

"Let's go, Xiao Jin. The driver has to go home for the New Year. Auntie will drive you home today."

"It's too much trouble for Auntie."

Liu's mother covered her mouth and giggled, "What trouble? It's nothing."

········

········

Xiao Liu sat cross-legged in the van, with potato chips, yogurt, and small fruits laid out in front of him, along with comic books.

We're all ready to start this lovely tea party.

Gada~

The car door opened.

The little hamster didn't even lift its head, its mouth stuffed full of "Mom~ you're so slow!"

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes. "What's so slow? Mommy is fast enough. You're the one rushing me today. I really don't know what's in such a hurry."

Gada~

The passenger door suddenly rang as well.

Miss Liu froze for a moment.

As soon as the car door opened, the person I least wanted to see looked at me with a half-smile.

"So eager?"

Miss Liu's mouth was full, and her eyes were vacant.

The small potato chip in my hand fell to the ground with a "thud".

My inner squeak was like a groundhog screaming.

It's haunting me!
