Chapter 48 Bring a bottle of proper safflower oil!
Dilraba, like a docile kitten, sat to Xu Lang's left and casually asked:
"Isn't it your turn yet?"
She was completely unaware of Li Yifeng's sudden stiffness on her right—his eyes were a mixture of confusion, doubt, and the frustration of being NTR'd in front of her.
Didn't you say you attract things with your own light?
Didn't you say you had no interest in Dilraba?
Why are you waving and sitting on the other side? Are you doing this on purpose?
Also, Dilraba is usually quite assertive and has a strong presence on set, but how come she turns into a docile kitten as soon as she sees Xu Lang?
"Almost there!" Xu Lang ignored the burning gaze behind him and turned to Dilraba:
"Dilraba, have you been hanging out with any male celebrities in Hengdian lately?"
"You mean besides you?"
"Um!"
"Then it should be..." Dilraba looked at Li Yifeng and said:
"Teacher Li, he's a very warm-hearted person. When he learned that I was accompanying you for the check-up, he volunteered to come along because he was worried that I wouldn't understand the hospital's procedures."
Xu Lang glanced at Li Yifeng and said, "Dilraba, some things are more memorable when done by two people. Three people... that's just being a third wheel."
Li Yifeng: "..."
Xu Lang, that's not what you just said...
What happened to relying on charisma and charm?
Your words are thorny!
Dilraba extended her index finger, tapped her chin, and turned to look at Li Yifeng:
"Teacher Li, why don't you go back first? I can manage on my own."
Li Yifeng: "..."
Dilraba, I've been working tirelessly for you on set for so long, and all my efforts have been wasted because of one sentence from Xu Lang?
"Reba, I've already come all this way..." He stammered a little, feeling that he had come here to humiliate himself, but if he left now, wouldn't that be the same as admitting defeat?
Looking down at Xu Lang's feet, he said:
"Professor Xu Lang has a foot injury, so it's inconvenient for him..."
"Ouch!" Xu Lang stretched out his hands, yawned, stood up, and took a few steps:
"My shoulders are a little sore from sitting for so long!"
Li Yifeng stared at his feet, which moved freely, his mouth slightly agape, in astonishment.
Are you able to walk now?
What does it mean that I carried you on my back for so long when you got on and off the bus? Was it a human stretcher experience card?
Are you kidding me?
Reba exclaimed excitedly, "Hey, Xu Lang, you can walk now? That's great!"
Then, he turned to Li Yifeng and said, "Teacher Li, look, Xu Lang can leave now. Hehe, you can go back now."
Li Yifeng: "..."
He really wanted to explode and curse Xu Lang and his ancestors for eighteen generations; but Reba was there, so he had to maintain his image.
Since the two haven't officially gotten together yet, he still has a chance. There's no need to ruin his image or break things off now.
Somewhat embarrassed, he stood up, leaned slightly closer to Xu Lang, and lowered his voice:
"Teacher Xu Lang, things are still uncertain, don't be too happy yet."
After saying that, when he looked at Dilraba, his expression immediately changed, and he revealed a warm smile:
"Dilraba, I'll head back now. Don't stay too long; you have filming this afternoon."
He glanced at Xu Lang again, his eyes cold; Xu Lang shrugged, revealing his signature smile, and watched him leave around the corner.
Dilraba looked up, her eyes filled with confusion:
"Xu Lang, what's wrong with Teacher Li?"
Xu Lang casually said, "I guess they put too much vinegar in the breakfast."
"what?"
Just then, Xu Lang's name finally came over the loudspeaker.
The two quickly walked into the doctor's office.
After reviewing the CT scan results and examining the area of his injury, the doctor said:
"You're recovering very well, but I still don't recommend you do any strenuous exercise for the next month. If you're filming, avoid action scenes. If you feel unwell at all, come back to see a doctor immediately."
"Okay!" Xu Lang said gratefully, "Is there anything I need to be careful about? Or anything I shouldn't eat?"
"Just eat normally; basically, if you can lie down, don't sit; if you can sit, don't stand; if you can stand, don't walk, understand?"
"Okay, thank you, doctor!"
……
On the way back, even the air tasted sweet.
Xu Lang hummed a little tune, stepped on the gas, and headed straight for the film set, which also put Dilraba in a good mood.
Arrived on set!
Many people glanced at him, smiles appearing on their faces.
Director Liang was filming when he saw Xu Lang. He instructed the assistant director to keep an eye on him, and then he quickly went to meet him.
"Professor Xu Lang, what brings you here?"
Xu Lang handed him the medical report: "Director Liang, I just got back from the hospital. The doctor said there's nothing wrong. I can't let my scenes fall behind and delay the crew's schedule."
Director Liang looked at the report and patted him on the shoulder:
"That's a good thing, but let's finish filming the dialogue scenes first, and then focus on filming the big scenes later."
Yang Mi also came over, took the report, smiled, and didn't say anything.
Director Liang glanced at the scene being filmed over there and said:
"Alright, you can rest this morning, and I'll arrange your dramatic scenes this afternoon."
"good!"
Director Liang happily went back to filming.
Yang Mi then spoke up: "Xu Lang, you've recovered quite quickly! My treat tonight, let's celebrate... Wait, can you drink?"
Xu Lang smiled and said, "The doctor said there are no dietary restrictions."
"That's good, let's have a crew dinner tonight!"
Xu Lang went to the dressing room. While the dressing room staff were busy working on him, they took a picture and sent it to Meng Ziyi, Mao Xiaotong, Chai Biyun, Yang Chaoyue, and several other girls who knew about his injury.
All four girls were happy for him.
Issue another separate certificate, report the situation, and indicate that the MV matter can proceed.
In the morning, he mainly familiarized himself with the script and rehearsed with the assistant director, practicing his blocking.
Dilraba watched his every move the whole time.
After lunch, Dilraba will go to Hengdian.
After a short rest, the crew began filming.
The first scene in the afternoon was a dialogue scene between Xu Lang and Feng Qingxue.
Feng Guangmo, one of the Ten Witches of Youdu, was ordered to investigate the whereabouts of Yu Heng.
"Action!"
The clapperboard fell.
Feng Qingxue walked step by step toward Feng Guangmo.
The camera captures the taut lines of his neck and his trembling fingers from the side, seizing a close-up of Feng Guangmo's subtle emotions.
"Brother, are you going to take me back to Youdu too?" Feng Qingxue's voice was as sharp as a blade.
Feng Guangmo closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were red.
"...Qingxue, you've grown up."
Feng Qingxue tightened her grip on her sword and turned her face away.
"My brother doesn't want to know the price of growing up."
The director behind the monitor smiled with satisfaction, intently watching every move on the monitor screen while simultaneously directing the various camera positions to capture the necessary shots.
The entire crew worked together seamlessly.
Qiao Zhenyu stood in the crowd, watching Yang Mi and Xu Lang's intense acting performance, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his face. It was a pleasure.
"Pass!"
Director Liang shouted very loudly.
Yang Mi quickly snapped out of character and stared at Xu Lang's feet:
"Xu Lang, is your foot alright?"
Xu Lang slowly regained his composure, revealing a sunny smile:
"Thank you for your concern, Honey. I'm fine!"
The director walked over and said with satisfaction:
"Mr. Xu Lang, in our next scene, there's a scene where we have to fall down..."
"It's alright, Director Liang, it's really all right," Xu Lang said firmly.
"Okay, let's take a ten-minute break."
Xu Lang felt his phone vibrating under the heavy ancient costume. He slapped his thigh, quickly walked to the rest area, and took out his phone—Bai Mengyan!
"Xu Lang, you got injured while filming? Why didn't you tell me?"
Bai Mengyan's questioning tone sounded like a accusatory message from a girlfriend who hadn't broken up with her yet.
"It's just a minor injury, no need to bother you!"
I'll come see you tonight!
"No need, don't come. The doctor said I can't do strenuous exercise yet."
"It's okay, you lie down, I'll do the moving!"
Xu Lang stared at the screen, almost choking on his own saliva, before recovering:
"Then... bring a bottle of safflower oil."
"The proper kind!"
