Chapter 41
On the first day of recording “Adventures of Mountains and Rivers”, in the early morning, the car of the production team arrived at the downstairs of each guest’s house.
Qian Lingling originally wanted to accompany Xia Shutong to the airport, but was stopped by the staff, so in the end Xia Shutong got into the car alone and joined the other five people at the airport.
After getting in the car, Xia Shutong raised her eyes in surprise when she saw the figure in the front row.
Jiang Chun actually came to pick her up in person.
“Mr. Xia, good morning.” Jiang Chun handed over a small microphone from the front row, and said with a smile, “This is your microphone.”
“Morning, Ms. Jiang.” Xia Shutong took the microphone, casually pinned it in his jacket, and glanced at the master who was following behind holding the cameraman: “Is this the start of filming?”
Jiang Chun: “Well, since I received Mr. Xia, the recording has started, and we will shoot along the way afterwards. But Mr. Xia, don’t worry, there are very few materials needed on the way, and you can capture a minute or two at most. Mr. Xia, before you leave Should have read the rules of our show?”
Xia Shutong nodded slightly.
After arriving at the destination of the program, the guests’ mobile phones and other electronic products will be confiscated, but considering the work reasons of Xia Shutong and Zhou Hanchi, the program team will not confiscate their mobile phones, and even allow them to bring an extra laptop, except They can’t use their phones for anything other than work.
Jiang Chun said again: “Mr. Xia, maybe you can be a little softer during the filming process. To be honest, I feel a little scared when you look like this.”
Jiang Chun was reminding Xia Shutong that although it was a reality show variety show, everyone in front of the camera would more or less have an element of acting. Showing the good side of the performance in front of the audience, the benefits that can be obtained are undoubtedly huge.
“Thank you for reminding me, I just…” Xia Shutong’s lips turned up slightly, and the smile in his eyes grew wider, “I’m a little nervous.”
She is telling the truth.
It was the first time for Xia Shutong to participate in the program, and it was also the first time to be followed by the camera. She was inevitably a little novel and nervous.
However, the tense expression on his face turned into habitual arrogance and disdain.
“Mr. Xia will also be nervous?” Jiang Chun obviously didn’t believe what she said, and shook his head with a smile, “I’m really joking.”
Xia’s house is not far from the airport, and after a few words, they arrived at Haicheng Airport.
Xia Shutong was the last one to arrive.
…
In the VIP lounge, the rest of the people also arrived not long ago.
Coincidentally, Jiang Feng, a college student who played the heroine’s best friend in “Chasing the Light”, is also one of the guests of this episode.
Before departure, the program team only told her that there were two actors, two entrepreneurs, and two college students as guests of this program, but they did not tell her who they were. Although Jiang Feng was an actor, her only work hadn’t been released yet, so she was naturally classified as a college student.
As soon as Jiang Feng entered the door, he saw Yun Feiwu sitting in the corner, looked around again, and found that she didn’t know any of the other three people except Yun Feiwu, so she rushed towards Yun Feiwu first: “Sister Yunyun! It’s been a long time not see!”
He stretched out his hand happily again, wanting to shake hands with Yun Feiwu.
“haven’t seen you for a long time.”
When Jiang Feng was on the set of “Chasing the Light”, Yun Feiwu had a good impression of her. He didn’t expect to meet her here, so he smiled and held out his hand.
But at this moment, the door of the terminal was pushed open.
Jiang Feng suddenly had a bad feeling—
Sure enough, when she turned her head, she saw Xia Shutong’s smiling face.
The four eyes are facing each other.
Jiang Feng’s whole body froze, and he almost trembled.
She, she, why didn’t she think of it just now… There are entrepreneurs who participated in the show! What is the relationship between Yun Feiwu and Xia Shutong? Since Yun Feiwu has come, how could Mr. Xia not come?
It’s over, I escaped last time, this time I’m really going to be silenced!
“Hi, Mr. Xia…” Jiang Feng swallowed, and said stiffly. After finishing speaking, she let go of Yun Feiwu’s hand and took a few steps back tremblingly.
“Yeah.” Xia Shutong nodded slightly, walked up to Yun Feiwu and sat down, doubts flashed in his eyes.
How does it feel that when he was on the set of “Chasing the Light”, Jiang Feng was afraid that he was a little abnormal?
…
When everyone arrived, the production team gave a brief introduction.
Xia Shutong, Yun Feiwu, Zhou Hanchi, and Ouyang Chao all knew each other, mainly the other two college students.
One, Jiang Feng, was a junior at the Film Academy and was considered an amateur.
The other person is called Xi Ao, he has a cold personality, his hair is very short, but he doesn’t look like a boy at all, his nose is straight and delicate, and his eyebrows are also very delicate. She is a senior student at Haicheng Agricultural University, and a village official who has been intern in the countryside for half a year in the first half of the year. She doesn’t know how she was approached by Liutai.
The program team was on a chartered flight, and there were only about 20 of them on the entire plane. Except for the cameraman, the director team and other staff were also seated separately from the guests. So as soon as he got on the plane, Ouyang Chao followed Yun Feiwu noisily, insisting to sit next to her.
Yun Feiwu ignored him completely and sat down by the window.
And Xia Shutong naturally sat beside Yun Feiwu.
There are three seats by the window, and now only the outermost one is left. Xia Shutong raised her eyes and said with a smile, “Shall I sit?”
Ouyang Chao shivered unconsciously, Mingming Xia was always laughing, why was he so penetrating?
But looking at Yun Feiwu on the innermost side, he still mustered up his courage and wanted to sit down tremblingly, but as soon as his **** moved, he was dragged back by a pair of big hands behind him.
“Mr. Xia, I’m sorry, my artists are ignorant, so I disturbed you.” Zhou Hanchi held Ouyang Chao tightly, and smiled gently.
“It’s okay.” Xia Shutong withdrew his gaze.
Ouyang Chao wanted to say something, but was pulled away by Zhou Hanchi.
Ouyang Chao: “???”
…
The big cameraman is sitting on the other side of the corridor.
A camera was watching at close range. Although Xia Shutong was sitting next to Yun Feiwu, the two of them had no intimate contact, let alone any communication.
Inexplicably, it’s like cheating…
It’s quite exciting.
The first episode of the program was recorded in a small village in Ba County, Chuancheng. After arriving at the airport in Rongcheng, the provincial capital, they had to transfer to the train station and take a five-hour green leather train.
The train from Rongcheng to Baxian is the oldest one. Compared with the plane just now, the environment inside the train is also very bad.
The big cameraman arranged by the program group stood at the train door, recording the changes in everyone’s expressions after getting on the train.
After all, “Shanchuan” has to highlight the “poor” of the recording location, attract people’s attention, and attract investment or charity projects. And the micro-expressions of the guests who were shocked by the poverty-stricken environment are undoubtedly excellent material.
The two men got into the car first, Zhou Hanchi and Ouyang Chao were the kind of people who were used to living a life of rich clothes and fine food, but they could go with the situation. After getting on the car, they sighed a few words and immediately adapted to the environment in the car.
Xi Ao, on the other hand, kept his face sullen and said nothing. Jiang Feng was a completely inexperienced old lady. It was the first time she got on such a dilapidated train, and she covered her lips in amazement, and her mood became depressed.
Finally, there are Yun Feiwu and Xia Shutong.
Yun Feiwu helped Xia Shutong carry a small bag of luggage, and walked in front. After entering the carriage, she looked as usual, still so indifferent.
However, if you look closely, you can see a trace of deep compassion in her deep gray eyes.
As for Xia Shutong… Several cameras were on her back and forth.
From the program team’s point of view, Xia Shutong should be the only one in this group who has never been exposed to low-level life. Her demeanor, gestures, and temperament revealed inadvertently, all belong to the superior.
So they were also looking forward to what kind of expression Xia Shutong would show.
But after getting in the car, Xia Shutong only restrained the playful smile in his eyes, but he didn’t feel any surprise or discomfort.
The carriage was a little narrow, so she carried the luggage in one hand and walked slowly in, holding the seat back with the other hand.
Her white and delicate fingers directly touched the oil-soaked seat back, but there was no trace of disgust or disgust on her face.
The big cameraman looked at the picture in the camera, and suddenly had an indescribable strange feeling.
It was as if Xia Shutong was wearing a famous brand from head to toe, and his temperament was extremely noble, but unexpectedly, he did not violate the messy environment of the carriage.
In front, after Yun Feiwu put away the luggage in his hands, he immediately returned to help Xia Shutong carry the suitcase.
The two still sat in a row.
Soon, the train moved on.
After the train leaves the city, there are large fields.
The window of the car that sits in the bunk cannot be opened, and there is a lot of mud on the window. Looking out from the car, even the scenery outside is somewhat unclear.
And the old green leather carriage is mixed with the smell of human sweat, fermented food, and musty smell coming from nowhere.
While breathing, Xia Shutong actually felt a little nostalgic.
In her memory, she had never taken this kind of old-fashioned train, but everything on the train made her feel familiar.
When I was a child, the windows of my home were also full of stains. If I wanted to peek at the TV on the opposite side through the window, I had to open the window a crack, but if the children in the opposite house saw it, I would be caught and scolded again. So later, she hung a rag on the window, and peeked through the hole in the rag every time.
And the house seems to be filled with a cold musty smell all the time, and after a long time, even the clothes have this smell.
It turns out that poverty in the world is interlinked.
At noon, when the auntie, a flight attendant pushing a snack cart, passed by, Xia Shutong bought two buckets of instant noodles, and she and Yun Feiwu each had a bucket for lunch.
I bought two more ham sausages and added them to the instant noodles.
Xia Shutong hasn’t eaten instant noodles for a long time, but she is very skillful in tearing the package and squeezing the seasoning. Even though she bought two ham sausages, Xia Shutong still habitually broke her own , the long part goes into Yun Feiwu’s noodle cup.
…
She seemed to recall a few scattered fragments.
After Wang Xiaoning passed away, her favorite food was instant noodles. The first is because it is cheap, two yuan a bag, plus the vegetable leaves picked secretly from the back of the house, can last a whole day. The second is because it is delicious… Her cooking skills are really not very good. The plain boiled noodles are really unpalatable. For instant noodles, at least there are seasoning packets, and it will be delicious if you add a la carte to it.
Every time Yun Feiwu came to find her, she would be cruel and buy an extra ham.
At that time, Yun Feiwu seemed to be only eleven or twelve years old, small, white and tender, like a cute puppy.
So when she was a child, Xia Shutong subconsciously felt that feeding her more nutritious food would make her grow better and faster.
At first, Xia Shutong wanted to give her the whole sausage, but Yun Feiwu disagreed. So in the end, I settled for the next best thing, half of each person, but Xia Shutong always kept the short half for herself.
…
On the train, Xia Shutong sent the ham sausage to Yun Feiwu’s cup, only to realize that something was wrong.
But she can never get it back.
So Xia Shutong pretended nothing happened and got up calmly.
Yun Feiwu’s movements froze slightly, and he took a deep look at Xia Shutong with his gray eyes, but couldn’t see anything, so he obediently lowered his head and followed Xia Shutong to fetch hot water.
Although the big cameraman was shocked that Mr. Xia could eat instant noodles, he still dutifully followed behind them and recorded this scene with his camera.
In the afternoon, Xia Shutong fell asleep in the car in a daze.
His head was naturally on Yun Feiwu’s shoulder.
Finally arrived at the destination at around three o’clock in the afternoon, Xia Shutong still hadn’t woken up yet, and felt that he was being pulled into a familiar embrace and hugged him horizontally.
Xia Shutong: “!!” His fingers unconsciously caught some.
Xia Shutong was just about to open her eyes, but she heard Yun Feiwu whisper to the person next to her, “Well, Mrs. Xia has fallen asleep, please help me with the luggage.”
The staff next to him waved his hand: “No trouble, no trouble, you didn’t bring much.”
Xia Shutong: “…”
Well, I’d better continue pretending to be asleep, otherwise I’d be hugged, and it would be too embarrassing to wake up now.
Yun Feiwu hugged Xia Shutong, ignored the surprised eyes around him, and calmly got on the bus again—the train just arrived at Baxian County, which was still three hours away from the destination village, and even had to walk a section of mountain road at the end.
Xia Shutong didn’t move until she was sitting in her seat, and finally “woke up”.
It happened to meet Shang Yun Feiwu’s soft and deep eyes.
“Mr. Xia, have you rested yet?” Yun Feiwu leaned into her ear and asked in a low voice.
“Mmm…mm.” Xia Shutong’s ears went numb, and he nodded.
Yun Feiwu asked softly, “Then… let me sleep for a while?”
“Well, good.” After Xia Shutong nodded, he suddenly understood what Yun Feiwu meant.
Just now she seemed to be leaning on Yun Feiwu to sleep, but now… of course Yun Feiwu also leans on her.
Xia Shutong looked at the camera on the side, hesitated for a moment, but finally did not refuse.
Anyway, just relying on sleeping, normal friends and girlfriends get along like this, even if they are photographed, there is no problem at all. If it doesn’t work, you can also ask the program group to cut these contents later.
After getting Xia Shutong’s affirmative answer, Yun Feiwu frowned, stepped back a little, and then slowly leaned down, resting his head on Xia Shutong’s thigh.
Xia Shutong froze, but her fingers naturally touched Yun Feiwu’s hair, stroking gently.
Near night, a group of people finally arrived at the small village where the program was recorded.
The six people each carried their suitcases and walked for about ten minutes on the bumpy mountain road before finally arriving at the small courtyard where they lived.
A large table was set up in the yard, and there were plates of dishes on it, full of aroma, and it looked like it had just been cooked.
The group stayed on the vehicle for a whole day, and they dragged their luggage for so long just now, they were so hungry, Ouyang Chao’s eyes were even more excited, he put down his luggage and rushed to the table.
The director explained: “Due to the special circumstances today, the village head cooked the first meal for everyone, but for every meal after that, I can only rely on myself.”
Along the way, when the director communicated with the guests, the tone was very respectful, but now it is obviously different, like the npc who releases the game mission, without a trace of personal emotion. Xia Shutong immediately understood that this was the official start of filming.
Ouyang Chao cooperated excitedly: “Okay! But what about the village chief? Should we thank him?”
“Of course.” The director said with a smile, “but today he has gone home.”
Ouyang Chao was disappointed: “Ah… so…”
The director nodded with a smile and said nothing more.
Xia Shutong understood. The rules of the program group stated that during the recording of the program these days, the guests need to complete the tasks of the program group. It is estimated that thanking the village chief is a task.
A group of people sat down at the table in a circle and began to eat dinner. Due to the exhaustion of the day, no one spoke much. Jiang Feng, who was usually very lively, also turned pale because of motion sickness. Halfway through, Xi Ao went out with her to vomit once with a cold face. Ouyang Chao was almost the only one who forced him to babble.
Because of Yun Feiwu, Xia Shutong didn’t like Ouyang Chao very much, but now he finds him annoying even more.
Instinctively want to scold him or even beat him.
Of course, it is impossible to fight, so every time Xia Shutong was quarreled to the point of death, he would stare at Ouyang Chao, and Zhou Hanchi would suggest food for him, so that he could be quiet for a while, but not In two minutes, he opened his mouth and started babbling again.
However, after listening to him talking for a long time, Xia Shutong has to admit that Ouyang Chao is annoying, but he is not very annoying. He is just a big boy who is innocent and stinky, and he is even kind, no wonder He can attract so many fans.
However, as soon as this idea came to Xia Shutong’s mind, Ouyang Chao looked at Yun Feiwu with a smile: “Yunyun, I don’t know what tasks the director team will give us. Are we going to be divided into groups? How about our physical strength? I’ll do all the work, you can just play in the back…”
Xia Shutong: …Take back your thoughts just now, be kind.
Yun Feiwu also directly refused: “No.”
He also said, “Xiao Xia and I are always on the same team.”
Xia Shutong paused when he was picking up the vegetables, but his mind was distracted, and the vegetables were caught in Yun Feiwu’s bowl under the watchful eyes of everyone. As a result, Xia Shutong’s hands became even more stiff.
Yun Feiwu took it naturally: “Thank you, Mr. Xia.”
Ouyang Chao looked sad and wanted to continue talking, but seeing Xia Shutong’s face, he didn’t dare to say: why! Why are Yunyun and Mr. Xia on such a good relationship? Obviously he was the one who knew Yunyun first! Obviously he came first…
This time he finally calmed down.
After dinner, the group session began.
First of all, there is the issue of accommodation. There are three rooms provided to the guests, one room for two, and six guests discuss and divide into groups. In the end, there was no objection, two men were in a group, Xia Shutong and Yun Feiwu were in a group, Jiang Feng and Xi Ao were in a group.
Then there is the task group. The meaning of the program group is very simple. The six of them are still divided into three groups, which are decided by lottery.
When director Thief Xixi said the word “drawing lots”, Xia Shutong had a bad premonition.
Reminiscent of the old man Xia trying to find ways to get her and Zhou Hanchi to participate in this show together, it is not impossible for the program team to make a secret operation during the lottery to put her and Zhou Hanchi in a group.
Soon, six staff members of the program team came over with a black note each.
“There are three different colors on the back of the note, and those who draw the same color form a group.” The director explained.
Xia Shutong was almost laughed at by their blatant secret operations.
This is a lottery? This is telling you clearly that the grouping has been arranged.
Sure enough, after Xia Shutong opened the note, he found that the back was red, the same color as Zhou Hanchi. And Yun Feiwu’s blue is the same as Ouyang Chao’s.
Ouyang Chao over there has already started cheering happily.
“Director Wang.” Xia Shutong smiled bluntly, and hooked his fingers at the director, “Isn’t it too obvious that you operate in secret?”
When the director approached, Xia Shutong tore off the note in his hand.
Although the camera is still taking pictures, but in this case, it will definitely be cut out later.
So Xia Shutong’s smile became even more surly.
“This…” the director smiled sarcastically, “Xia is always dissatisfied with the lottery results?”
Xia Shutong raised her eyebrows: “Director Wang, what do you think?”
At this time, Yun Feiwu also came over and stood beside Xia Shutong. She didn’t say anything, but without hesitation, she also tore off the note in her hand.
The director’s smile became more guilty: “This…”
They did operate in the dark.
Long before departure, he had received an entrustment from Jiang Chun, saying that he would make Xia Shutong and Zhou Hanchi a team as much as possible. The director has been in the circle for so many years, and he immediately understood that the Xia family and the Zhou family probably wanted to marry through this show, so when drawing lots and grouping them, they only needed to do some small operations.
I didn’t even bother to do small operations, so I just kept the camera in the dark, anyway, it would be good to cut off the lottery link when the program is officially broadcast.
As for the grouping of Yun Feiwu and Ouyang Chao, it was purely a temporary idea of the program group.
After all, the two of them had just finished filming a TV series together, and the popularity of cp hadn’t passed yet, so they just took the opportunity to bring a wave of traffic to the program group.
But looking at Mr. Xia’s face now… the director realized that he seemed to have made a mistake?
So before Xia Shutong could speak again, the director waved his hand with a guilty smile: “Hey… Since everyone is not satisfied with the lottery result, shall we draw again?”
Everyone could see that the lottery just now was obviously tricky, so no one had any objections.
Soon, the second draw began.
This time, after throwing the small note into the basin and shaking it a few times, each person took one, there was no room for secret manipulation.
The results of the lottery came out soon, Yun Feiwu and Xi Ao were in a group, Xia Shutong and Jiang Feng were in a group, and the remaining two men were in a group.
Xia Shutong was a little disappointed that he couldn’t be with Yun Feiwu, but he didn’t say much.
However, Jiang Feng’s face, which was terribly pale due to motion sickness, became a little paler at this time, and the lights of the camera team shone on it, making a female ghost.
When Xia Shutong looked at her, Jiang Feng trembled all over his body: “No, no, Mr. Xia Xiaxia, I am… not worthy of you! I will trade with Yunyun, and you will be with Yunyun!”
The author has something to say: Jiang Feng’s little pity is online (and vice cp)~ The relaxed and fun mountain village life is about to begin!
And as mentioned in the first chapter, we Ruanruan have a soft spot for instant noodles (after waking up from a car accident, the first thing that comes to mind is to buy instant noodles) 233
