Chapter 1923: Filming with Leng Ruobing
This dinner lasted for almost two hours before it finally ended.
Xiao Zheng didn’t let Long Qie and the others drive him, instead, he took a taxi home.
He originally planned to surprise Leng Ruobing, but when he got home, he found that there was no one there. Not only was Leng Ruobing not at home, but even Chu Xiaoran was nowhere to be seen.
"That’s strange, where have they gone?"
Xiao Zheng muttered, then proceeded to dial Leng Ruobing’s number.
Leng Ruobing told him over the phone that she was at the maternity check-up center for a check-up, and as for Chu Xiaoran, she had returned to the film set to work. Xiao Zheng wanted to go find Leng Ruobing, but she told him to rest at home.
Knowing that the Sky Net brothers were protecting her, Xiao Zheng did not insist.
After sitting in the living room for a while, his phone rang again.
Xiao Zheng picked up the phone and saw it was Chu Xiaoran calling. Without guessing, he knew that Leng Ruobing must have informed the young girl of his return.
As soon as the call connected, Xiao Zheng heard Chu Xiaoran shouting from the other end: "Xiao Zheng! Hurry over and save me!"
Save her?
What was this about?
Xiao Zheng’s heart tightened, thinking something had happened to her, he hurriedly asked: "What is it? What happened exactly?"
However, Chu Xiaoran’s reply next made him a bit amused: "Nothing, I’m just too bored at the film set, and I want you to come over to chat with me."
"What’s the matter? Can’t you fulfill such a small wish of mine?"
Chu Xiaoran’s voice revealed deep grievance.
Xiao Zheng couldn’t help but chuckle, after relieving his tension, he spoke with a slightly reproachful tone: "You’re really messing around, don’t you know that some things shouldn’t be joked about? You had me worried you were in real trouble."
"Hehe, I just wanted to test whether you really care about me." Chu Xiaoran said mischievously, without any sense of wrongdoing.
Xiao Zheng found himself at a loss with her, sighed and asked: "Where are you now? I’ll come find you, I’m alone at home anyway, with nothing to do."
"Then hurry over, I’m almost bored to death, I’m at the Yutai Mountain Scenic Spot shooting outdoor scenes right now," Chu Xiaoran said quickly.
Xiao Zheng nodded and replied: "Got it, I’ll head over right away, I’ll call you when I arrive."
After chatting briefly, they hung up the phone.
Xiao Zheng stretched, then grabbed his car keys and left the house.
Yutai Mountain Scenic Spot is on the outskirts of Zhonghai City, with beautiful scenery, cascading waterfalls, and there’s even a thousand-year-old Taoist temple on the mountain. Many film crews coming to Zhonghai City choose this place for outdoor scenes.
This is the place that appears most often in major films and TV dramas in Zhonghai City.
Since it is winter now, not many people are visiting the mountains.
When Xiao Zheng arrived at the scenic spot, the ticket point appeared somewhat desolate. However, the reduction in tourists made the mountain return to a sense of simplicity and ethereal beauty.
Clouds and mist rose at the summit, and the highest peak was even covered with a thin layer of snow.
After buying a ticket and entering, Xiao Zheng called Chu Xiaoran.
About ten minutes later, he saw Chu Xiaoran excitedly running down a nearby mountain path and then throwing herself into his arms.
Although bumped hard into his arms by Chu Xiaoran, Xiao Zheng still had a doting look on his face: "Your personality now compared to before, has really changed into another person. You used to be so quiet, now you’ve become a bit of a crazy woman."
Hearing this, Chu Xiaoran emerged from his embrace, raised her head, and pouted: "No way, I’m still quite quiet now. It’s just that I haven’t seen you in ages, so I missed you too much."
"We’ve only been apart for less than two days, how is that ages?" Xiao Zheng replied somewhat amused.
Chu Xiaoran’s pretty face turned slightly red, then she flirtatiously said: "I don’t care, I say it’s ages, so it’s ages!"
Clearly, she was feigning innocence.
Xiao Zheng showed a hint of helplessness, then said: "Alright, whatever you say is right. But speaking of which, isn’t your film crew still shooting? Running out secretly alone, won’t the director scold you?"
"No, I’m just here representing the company to oversee things, not responsible for specific affairs within the film crew, the director can’t boss me around," Chu Xiaoran said, "By the way, Xiao Zheng, do you want to see the filming set? It’s not far from here, if you’re interested, I’ll take you to see it."
"Sure, I can enjoy the scenery of Yutai Mountain," Xiao Zheng nodded with a smile.
Chu Xiaoran then wrapped her arm around his, and the two chatted and laughed as they followed the cobblestone path up the mountain.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the filming location.
According to Chu Xiaoran’s introduction, the crew is shooting a fantasy film titled "Master Fell in Love with Me". Hearing the title, Xiao Zheng was thunderstruck and quietly sympathized with future cinema audiences.
Seeing Xiao Zheng’s expression, Chu Xiaoran knew what he was thinking and said with a sly smile: "I forgot to tell you, this film’s investor is Qianqiu Group!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng looked surprised: "No way? Who made this investment? They actually invested in such a cheesy film?"
"It was Sister Mo’s approval, and even Cousin signed off," Chu Xiaoran said, "Actually, the purpose of filming this movie is to promote the male lead, who is a star under Qianqiu Group’s entertainment company, this movie is tailor-made for him."
"The title may be cheesy, but the script is actually decent."
Xiao Zheng shook his head, momentarily not knowing what to say.
However, his impression of the movie had somewhat changed, after all, it was jointly endorsed by Leng Ruobing and Mo Anna; they certainly had their reasons for doing so.
While the two were standing and watching the filming process, a female actor in an ancient long dress suddenly slapped the male actor she was acting with hard, then angrily shouted: "I’m not doing it! Director, what kind of extras have you hired? They don’t even know how to act and tried to touch me inappropriately!"
"I won’t shoot this scene! Unless you immediately replace the extra!"
Hearing her words, the male actor quickly said with grievance: "I didn’t touch her inappropriately, I didn’t even touch her..."
"So, you’re saying I’m wrongly accusing you?" the female actor glared and said.
The male actor quickly shut his mouth, seemingly terrified of her.
Xiao Zheng, witnessing this from a distance, couldn’t help but frown.
As for Chu Xiaoran, she had a look of anger and helplessness on her face.
