Huayu: You were supposed to be a top star, but you've become capital?

Chapter 83: Ambassador for Anti-Drug Publicity in China

Night falls early in Changbai Mountain.

It got dark around 4 p.m., and by now it's 8 p.m., and it's completely dark outside.

The snow has stopped, but the wind is still blowing, and occasionally you can hear a howling sound squeezing in through the cracks in the window.

Bai Mengyan was scrolling through her phone on the sofa in her hotel room.

Lin Shen sat next to her and looked at the itinerary for Shanghai that Yang Chaoyue had sent. The flight was early tomorrow morning, and Xiaohongshu had arranged a whole day of shooting. Mao Wenchao had also invited her to dinner that evening.

The phone next to me suddenly vibrated.

Bai Mengyan looked down and a smile appeared on her lips.

Qiqi: "I saw your WeChat Moments! You went to Changbai Mountain!"

Kiki: "Is the snow really that heavy? Is it cold?"

Bai Mengyan typed with a smile: "It's freezing, but the snow is really beautiful."

Qiqi: "Send me pictures! Let me see! Let me take a virtual tour!"

Bai Mengyan switched to the photo album, picked out a few pictures, and sent them over.

One photo shows the snow-capped mountains outside the hotel window, another shows the snow-covered film set, and the third shows a selfie of someone wearing a thick down jacket with a red, frostbitten face.

Kiki: "Wow, so beautiful!!"

Kiki: "I'll take the selfie. You look so good even though you're freezing, that's too much, sis."

Bai Mengyan: Hehe

Kiki: "By the way, how's filming going over there? Are you tired?"

Bai Mengyan: "It's alright, the conditions on set are pretty good."

Qiqi: "How was it working with Brother Shen?"

Bai Mengyan paused in her typing, glancing to the side out of the corner of her eye. Lin Shen was still looking at his phone, unaware of what was happening.

She pursed her lips and replied, "It's alright, they take good care of people."

After posting, quickly change the subject.

Bai Mengyan: "Stop talking about me, how about you? Are you busy?"

Kiki: "Ugh, I'm exhausted from shooting still photos every day."

Bai Mengyan: "Is being tired a good thing? As long as I can make money, that's all that matters."

Qiqi: "That's true, it's much better than being a Taobao model before."

Qiqi: "By the way, I have something to tell you. A new girl recently joined the company, and she's incredibly hardworking."

Qiqi: "That energy, even more than you did back then."

Bai Mengyan: "Who is it? How do you spell it?"

Qiqi: "There's a little girl named Liu Haocun. She's still there every day after we finish work, and she's also on the earliest shift the next day."

Qiqi: "The girl is still in school, I heard she's at the affiliated high school of Beijing Dance Academy. It seems there's been some trouble at home, and she wants to earn more money."

Bai Mengyan paused for a moment, then smiled.

She was just as hardworking when she was a model back in the day. She was always the first to arrive and the last to leave, taking any job she could get. Back then, all she wanted was to make more money; she didn't care how tiring it was.

Bai Mengyan: "That's really hard work. How old is the young lady?"

Qiqi: "She looks quite young, probably only fifteen or sixteen? Anyway, she's very clever and pretty."

Qiqi: "She's just too skinny, so tiny, she looks so pitiful."

Kiki: "Oh right, I'll send you a picture, take a look."

The next second, the photo popped up.

Bai Mengyan clicked on it.

The girl in the photo is standing in front of the backdrop in the photography studio, wearing a simple white sweatshirt.

瘦。

So thin.

Her collarbones were prominent, her chin was pointed, and she was as thin as a sheet of paper, but her eyes were big, and she just stared at the camera.

Bai Mengyan zoomed in for a closer look and typed: "She's so thin! Does she even weigh 80 pounds?"

Qiqi: "I don't think so. She's working too hard, and it breaks our hearts to see her like that."

Just as Bai Mengyan was about to reply, Lin Shen's voice came from beside her.

"Who are you chatting so enthusiastically with?"

She looked up and saw that Lin Shen had put down his phone at some point and was looking at her with his head turned to the side.

"Qiqi." Bai Mengyan handed him the phone.

"I told you before, the sister I used to catch up with as a model is now with Yao Jiu."

Lin Shen took the phone and his gaze fell on the screen.

That's when it stopped.

This face—

He stared at the photo for a long time.

"Who is this?" Lin Shen asked.

Bai Mengyan leaned closer and said, "The new part-time girl over there at Qiqi's place is really working hard."

Lin Shen glanced at the photo again.

"What's your name?"

"Liu Haocun".

Lin Shen's pupils contracted slightly.

Liu Haocun.

Of course he knew that name.

Before she transmigrated, this girl had quite a few labels online, such as "Zhang Yimou's girl", "resource-backed actress", and "top student of Beijing Dance Academy".

And of course, there's the most famous one, Emo's mom.

Lin Shen's lips twitched.

Right now, this girl should be studying at the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy. Something happened at home, she wanted to earn money, and that's when she saw the job posting on 1999...

He handed the phone back to Bai Mengyan and nodded.

Bai Mengyan took back her phone and replied to Qiqi, "I'm not talking anymore, I have to get up early tomorrow. You should go to sleep early."

Kiki: "Okay, go ahead. Take good care of yourself over there."

Bai Mengyan: "Okay."

She put her phone face down and leaned closer to Lin Shen.

What time are you leaving tomorrow?

"The flight is at nine o'clock, and we'll depart at seven-thirty."

"Oh……"

Bai Mengyan didn't say anything more, she just snuggled closer to him.

Lin Shen hugged her and leaned down to kiss her forehead.

"Go to sleep."

The wind was still howling outside the window, but the room was warm.

The next morning at 7:30, it was still dark.

Yang Chaoyue knocked on the door on time. Lin Shen had already finished washing up and packed his luggage.

Bai Mengyan sat on the bed wrapped in a blanket, her hair messy, her eyes not fully open, but she kept staring at him.

Lin Shen walked over, bent down, and kissed her on the forehead.

"I'm gone."

"……Um."

"Focus on filming, I'll be back soon."

"……Um."

Lin Shen smiled, turned around and went out.

The door closed.

Bai Mengyan stared at the door for a few seconds before falling back onto the bed and burying her face in the blankets.

Changbaishan Airport.

Lin Shen's car arrived on time, and Yang Chaoyue ran around handling the formalities. In the waiting room, Lin Shen sat by the window and took out his phone to check Weibo.

On the trending topics list, #LinShenDoesNotUpholdProfessionalEthics# is still ranked fourth.

It was followed by a deep red "hot" character.

Lin Shen glanced at the time and stood up.

The covered bridge was quiet, with only the echo of footsteps.

As he reached the cabin door, Lin Shen took out his phone and glanced at the screen one last time.

Then I pressed the power button.

Boarding.

Meanwhile, in the capital city.

It was eight o'clock in the morning.

The official Weibo account of the Ministry of Public Security, which is dedicated to combating four types of illegal activities and eliminating four types of harmful practices, posted an update.

The accompanying picture shows Lin Shen in a uniform, standing in a recording studio.

Word:

[#Lin Shen appointed as China's anti-drug publicity ambassador# Song "The Lone Warrior" released today]

Young actor Lin Shen was officially appointed as the "China Anti-Drug Publicity Ambassador" today, and the music video for his anti-drug public service song "The Lone Warrior" was released simultaneously.

The State Administration of Optics, Electronics and Telecommunications issued the following statements almost simultaneously:

[#LinShenPositiveEnergyArtist#Young actor Lin Shen conveys the powerful voice of the times through his works]

Lin Shen actively participates in public service campaigns on drug prevention and fire safety, and the music video for his song "The Lone Warrior" was released online today.

The music video unlocked on time.

In the video, Lin Shen stands in front of the microphone in the recording studio, singing the first line with his eyes closed.

Anti-drug police officers stake out the area in the dark.

Firefighters rushed into the fire.

Traffic police direct traffic in a blizzard.

Medical staff worked tirelessly in the operating room until dawn.

The lyrics also appeared one by one:

I love you walking alone in the dark alley

I love you without kneeling

love you confronted with despair

don't cry

The final shot of the video freezes on Lin Shen's profile as he stands in the recording studio.
