The crew had just set off.
By noon, the rumors were flying, each more outrageous than the last.
They were all about gossip and scandals, not a single mention of Luo Yun Chu and Liu Xiao Li's senior-junior relationship.
Everyone was saying that Fan Bing Bing and Liu Xiao Li had fallen out over a man.
Of course, these were just whispers.
Not many people dared to speak in front of the parties involved.
The most uncomfortable person, though, was actually Zhang Dan Feng. He was clearly the lead actor in this drama, yet hardly anyone paid attention to him.
It was like he and the female lead in the drama were both vying for a man with another woman.
But he didn't harbor any ill feelings towards Luo Yun Chu.
He just felt uncomfortable.
And even if there were grudges, they wouldn't be displayed openly. Except for some brainless people who liked to spout harsh words.
Normal people would smile to your face but stab you in the back, tripping you up.
Who would openly declare their intention to harm someone?
...
Yuan Shan Film City
The Xia Ying crew was also filming on location, but on a much smaller scale.
The film city was rented for a short period, and most of the shooting took place in scenic spots outside the city.
Upon arrival.
Everyone received their costumes. Luo Yun Chu got a set of simple, understated, ornate guard attire.
It couldn't compare to Duan Yu's prince's attire, of course.
But it was still good, at least it didn't look out of place.
According to the director.
A cold, close-knit bodyguard, his attire should be as austere as his personality.
Too ornate and it would clash with the character itself.
These words made Luo Yun Chu have a newfound respect for the director. To have such an understanding, it meant he had genuinely studied.
While he was changing clothes, Liu Xiao Li was right next to him, not leaving his side.
It was just that he was changing his outerwear, not his underwear, so she didn't need to be bashful.
There was a hint of love for her junior in her eyes, and a hint of desire hidden deep within.
After all, she had watched him grow up in the same courtyard. When he went abroad, he was still a little kid in her eyes.
In the blink of an eye, he had grown up, transformed into a dashing young man.
How quickly time flies.
"What are you thinking about, Aunt?" Luo Yun Chu, seeing Liu Xiao Li in a daze, suddenly approached her, curiosity in his eyes.
Liu Xiao Li lovingly stroked his hair.
"Nothing, just thinking about when you and Siqi grow up, I'll be able to retire peacefully."
Luo Yun Chu pulled her hand and laughed.
"Aunt, how can you get old? You look even younger than most girls."
Not to mention her skin, it was truly white and glowing. Not only was it naturally fair and tender, but it must have been meticulously cared for.
A woman's appearance is for the one she loves, and if there's a way to enhance her beauty without harming her body, no one would refuse.
Liu Xiao Li had heard these words many times, but she couldn't help but be happy to hear them from Luo Yun Chu.
She touched her own face and asked with a touch of naivete.
"Really?"
As an adult, she should know that asking such a question was not rational, yet she still asked with anticipation.
"Really."
Luo Yun Chu wasn't lying. Liu Xiao Li was naturally beautiful, and age had left no mark on her.
Instead, it added to her beauty. She was now ripe, like a juicy peach.
A mouthful of water.
Before they could say anything, others walked in, so they quickly pretended to be fine.
It was just a normal conversation, but Liu Xiao Li felt like she had almost been caught having an affair.
After the staff came in.
Luo Yun Chu took his prop sword and went to the set. To be honest.
This prop, except for not being sharpened, was indeed real.
Zhang Dan Feng, who had just finished his makeup, thought to himself that Luo Yun Chu was just a supporting character, no matter how brilliant he was, that was all he could be.
But when he actually saw his appearance, he couldn't help but feel envious.
Damn it, his lead actor, in comparison, looked like a clown.
If he hadn't had any backing, he really would have used his resources to have Luo Yun Chu's role changed.
Anything would be better than seeing him in front of him.
Fan Bing Bing's eyes lit up, thinking that the little man looked even better in ancient clothes, that cold aloofness.
It was a bit like their first meeting, when he was indifferent.
The director nodded with satisfaction. As expected, he had insisted on adding this role, in the original novel, Huang Hai Bing didn't have a bodyguard, it didn't matter.
Anyway, the whole script had already been adapted, one more character wouldn't hurt.
"Little Luo, have you studied martial arts?"
Luo Yun Chu shook his head, if it were a character, he might be able to pull out a sword technique, but now he only knows a few martial arts routines.
"No, but I know some martial arts routines."
The director was about to find the martial arts instructor to create a set of moves for Luo Yun Chu. Having some foundation would be best.
"Then show me."
"Okay."
Luo Yun Chu responded cleanly and crisply, going to an open space, pulling out the long sword in his hand.
He had learned some things and tricks from the professional martial arts instructor from Tian Long.
Not much, but enough.
"Buzz."
The long sword let out a soft hum, the blade making a crisp metallic sound as it cut through the air, he swung the long sword, like a dancing butterfly, light and graceful.
There was no practical effect at all, it was all for show.
The director actually saw a shadow of the Kung Fu Emperor in Luo Yun Chu.
The action scenes were all smooth and flowing, visually appealing.
Liu Xiao Li, who appeared from nowhere, her beautiful eyes were filled with a hint of intoxication. He was fighting so well, she was like she was bewitched.
At first, she had just treated him like a junior, but why did her heart have such thoughts.
That day, she took advantage of Yun Chu's drunkenness, pretending to be Siqi to......
She didn't know when this affection started to change.
She only hoped that Yun Chu wouldn't find out, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to face anyone.
On the other side of Liu Xiao Li, Fan Bing Bing was sizing her up with the eyes of Hu Yi.
Was that definitely the look of an aunt looking at her junior?
More like looking at her lover, her heart's desire...
But the problem was, weren't they related by marriage, or something like that?
Hiss.
There's something wrong.
If her guess was true, everything would make sense.
No wonder this old woman was so hostile to her, it turned out she wanted to enjoy him with her.
She had to observe a little longer.
If she was sure, Fan Bing Bing was going to let Luo Yun Chu know,
To prevent him from falling into her clutches one day.
You know, a woman in her thirties and forties, her needs are not ordinary...
