Chapter 65 Making Friends
Chapter 65 Making Friends
When Liu Yifei got into Lin Feng's van, he got out to check the situation outside. Seeing that Liu Yifei still looked a little panicked, he comforted her:
"It's alright, it's not that serious. We're just stranded. Besides, I checked, we're surrounded by desert, no mountains, so a mudslide couldn't have happened. It's just a sudden downpour, and the cars are stuck in the mud. Once the rain stops, everything will be fine!"
Hearing Lin Feng say that, Liu Yifei felt much more at ease, but she still said with lingering fear, "Yeah, I'm fine. I was just a little scared at first, but I'm okay now. When I was filming 'The Return of the Condor Heroes,' I almost got swept away by a waterfall."
"It's alright, you can rest first. I'll keep an eye on things. I'll call you if anything happens." Lin Feng even pulled out a chair for Liu Yifei, indicating that she could lie down and sleep.
Liu Yifei had only been lying down for a short while when she sat up again. She couldn't sleep. "Lin Feng, I can't sleep. How about we talk?"
"What are you saying?"
"Well, when you first met me, why did you say I have a good mother?"
"Oh right, where's your mother?" Lin Feng then realized that something was missing from Liu Yifei's side—it was her mother!
"She hasn't been here for the past few days. She had to go back early because of something. I guess she's worried about me now." Liu Yifei also missed her mother a little.
"Isn't this always with you? Why didn't you come today?"
"She often accompanies me, but she doesn't come every day!" Liu Yifei explained.
"Yes, you really have a good mother. I've met someone in a similar situation before, but her mother wasn't as good as yours, which ultimately led to tragedy."
"Who is it?" Liu Yifei asked, still a little curious.
"Uh, I dreamt about it. These are all things that happened in my dream. Let's not talk about these things anymore. Anyway, just know that you have a good mother!" Lin Feng said with a laugh, not wanting to dwell on this topic for too long.
Many fans had previously told Liu Yifei that her mother was limiting her career development and that she should find a more professional agent. This was the first time Liu Yifei had heard someone praise her mother like this, and she was quite happy.
In fact, Lin Feng was telling the truth. Liu Xiaoli protected Liu Yifei too well. As for Liu Yifei's career development, that's all she's capable of. What else can she achieve?
From "The Forbidden Kingdom" to "Mulan," Liu Yifei has acted in a total of 17 movies, covering all genres, but none of them seem to have been a blockbuster.
Aside from subjective factors like the movie script, the main issue is that Liu Yifei's acting skills are not up to par. It seems like every character she plays is beautiful and ethereal. She's too beautiful, which makes her seem unrealistic, and her acting is lacking. How can anyone connect with her on screen?
Actually, Liu Yifei is more suited to the small screen, but she doesn't seem to care about it now.
A brief silence fell between them. After a long while, Liu Yifei broke the silence, "Lin Feng, can we be friends?"
"Aren't we friends now?"
"I'm talking about true friends, people I can confide in. I haven't had many friends growing up, but I really want to be friends with you. Actually, you can use my nickname 'XiXi'." This seems to be the second time Liu Yifei has mentioned her nickname "XiXi".
"Sissi? Why do you insist I call you by your nickname?"
"Well, because we're friends, Lin Feng. Do you have a nickname?" Liu Yifei blinked and asked curiously.
"No, I don't. My family called me Xiaofeng when I was little. Just call me by my name. I'm not that particular."
"Um, Lin Feng, actually, when you called this afternoon, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation, but I overheard a little bit. Are you planning to invest in and shoot a movie called 'Love is Not Blind'? Are you short of money? Actually, I have money, and I can lend it to you." Liu Yifei's attitude was very serious.
"Oh, thank you, but really, you don't need to!"
Although Lin Feng himself knew that the movie "Love is Not Blind" would be a box office hit, others didn't. Since Liu Yifei was willing to lend him money, she definitely meant well and truly considered Lin Feng a friend.
Lin Feng understood that some money could be lent, such as Fan Binbin's, Deng Shuang's, and Yang Mi's, but some money could not be lent, such as Liu Yifei's.
"Didn't you just agree to be friends with me?"
"It's not a big deal, and I'm not short of money. I'll lend you the money if I really need it," Lin Feng explained.
"Okay, then I'll have a cameo in your movie too. I heard you were thinking of finding someone else to do a cameo!" Liu Yifei said again.
It seems that Liu Yifei has never made a cameo appearance in a film or television drama since she became famous, which makes Lin Feng feel quite flattered.
Could it be that she likes him? Lin Feng was starting to doubt himself; was he really that charming?
However, Lin Feng quickly realized that she probably just wanted to be friends with him; she was desperately seeking friends.
"Okay, I'll call you if needed."
Lin Feng readily agreed, which made Liu Yifei quite happy.
Just as the two were having a good chat, Lin Feng got hungry and his stomach started growling. He hadn't eaten in a long time and had originally planned to go back to the hotel to eat, but he ended up stuck there.
Seeing this, Liu Yifei said, "Oh right, I still have some cookies and bread in my car. Wait here, I'll go get them for you."
"Yeah, let's go together. It's still raining outside, it's not safe."
After getting their food, the two ate and chatted, talking a lot, even more than they had in the two months on set, until they were too tired to talk anymore and couldn't stand being sleepy.
"Why don't you take a nap? I'll help you unfold all the seats." Lin Feng reclined all four seats so that Liu Yifei could lie down and sleep in the back of the car.
"Take off all these headdresses, they're so heavy, they're almost as heavy as my armor."
"Yes, these headdresses are all made of iron and are very heavy, weighing about 5 kilograms. The main problem is that they cause skin allergies and unbearable itching."
"You should ask the production crew to get you a gold one, then everything will be fine. Okay, you go to sleep, I'll play around here for a while."
Lin Feng stayed by her side, playing mobile games like Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja when he got sleepy. But in the end, it seemed that Lin Feng fell asleep next to Liu Yifei.
Fortunately, Lin Feng woke up early the next day. By the time he woke up, the rain had stopped, but the car was still stuck in the mud and couldn't move. In the end, everyone had to walk back to the hotel.
It took a full four hours to walk, a truly unforgettable experience. Lin Feng and Liu Yifei supported each other for a full 18 hours since they lost contact.
"Do we feel like we're on the Long March?"
"Yes, and I actually feel quite accomplished!"
Upon arriving at a location with a signal, Lin Feng's phone immediately rang with numerous missed calls and messages. He promptly contacted the outside world to let them know he was safe and reassure his concerned fans.
Lin Feng also took the initiative to call people who were closer to him.
"Mom, I'm fine. Don't listen to those media reports; they're just scaremongering people."
"Xiao Shuang, why are you crying? I'm fine, I'm just trapped. It's okay, don't worry!"
"How am I heartless? When you called, the line was busy, so you were calling my mom. You, Binbin, dare to be jealous of my mom?!"
"Xiao Mi, I'm fine, thank you! Ah! What? You were replaced again in 'Caught in the Web'? Why do you have to take on so many roles at once?! What am I supposed to say to you!"
Well, you see, before it was small directors replacing you, now it's a big director like Chen Kaige replacing you, which shows you've improved! But you should try to avoid taking on too many projects at once in the future.
