Chapter 52 Tear up the stepmother script

"Thank you in advance for your kindness, Director Yi. Our Minghua needs to pack her things and send them down the mountain. The crew on the Hong Kong Island side is waiting for Minghua to go over. We can't delay it any longer. We understand your wishes."

Xiao Chen came forward to negotiate.

Yi Yunsheng suddenly realized, as if he had just remembered such a thing, "Oh, yes, Xu Sheng is still waiting for Comrade Xiao to come over, look at my memory; OK, you go ahead, I planned to do it specially for Comrade Xiao

A finals banquet, since Comrade Xiao cannot attend, the finals banquet will be cancelled, and we will all get together in the evening."

"Sorry." Minghua said.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Your acting skills are very good and you can perform them freely. I hope I have a chance to cooperate with you next time." Yi Yunsheng smiled and stared at Minghua.

Minghua smiled and said nothing, said goodbye to her friends in the crew, and went down the mountain with Xu Mingzhan and others.

Filming on the set is still continuing.

Walking into the courtyard, Gu Jianguo said, "Comrade Xiao, you were too busy earlier and it was not appropriate to invite you to treat us rashly. Now that Comrade Xiao has finished, why not let us fulfill our friendship as landlords tonight?"

"I'm really sorry, Comrade Gu, you saw it on the mountain; I need to rush to another place to shoot a movie, so I can only regret to decline you." Minghua apologized sincerely without any hesitation.

"Next time I have a chance, I'll treat you to dinner."

"It's a pity that the time is not coincidental; then you go about your business and I'll drive to the intersection and wait for you." Gu Jianguo nodded politely, turned and walked away.

Xiao Chen said: "What does Gu Jianguo mean, just inviting you to dinner?"

"Do you feel innocent?"

Xiao Chen was speechless when he retorted.

All fools know that this is not just a dinner invitation, but a plan; Minghua has never shown any difference in front of them, and she can't bear the instructions from her superiors to protect her, and her personal safety has been raised to the highest level.

If you are a person with no interests, why should you raise the level of protection so high?

"What do they want to do? Are they trying to trick someone, or are they trying to trick someone into talking about something?" It's acceptable to trick someone into talking about someone else, but it's definitely not acceptable to talk like someone else.

Xu Mingzhan said calmly: "We are leaving. What they think has nothing to do with us; Xiao Chen, it's time for you to pack your luggage. We should go down the mountain later."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Xiao Chen responded hurriedly and ran away.

"Minghua, go and clean it up. Call me when you're done."

Minghua nodded lightly and turned back to the room. After entering the room, she put her clothes, books, and notes back into her luggage bag; there weren't many things, but there was some unused medicinal powder when she left.

The watch her parents gave her was a Plum Blossom watch for her wrist. I don’t know how much effort her parents put into buying it; and it was given to her when she packed it in her luggage before leaving without her knowing it.

When she opened her luggage bag, she found two sets of new Lenin clothes, two pairs of small leather shoes, and a watch. These things cost a lot of money, and her parents were really willing to give her up.

The luggage for four people is neither too much nor too little; plus a small stove, food and the like are even more.

Xu Mingzhan and Comrade Ning went to the fork in the road to see her off, while Xiao Chen was left to watch over the fork in the road. When Minghua was carrying her luggage and going out, Xu Mingzhan and Comrade Ning were moving the last things.

Seeing her coming out, Xu Mingzhan handed the things in his left hand to Comrade Ning, walked up quickly and took the luggage bag from her hand.

"Why didn't you call me when you were done packing?"

"This thing is not very heavy, you can lift it." After saying this, Xu Mingzhan hummed softly. He was not disappointed. This girl did not rely on other people's thoughts at all. She has never been weak since they met.

Minghua looked confused and didn't know why his mood suddenly changed. She followed their footsteps and stopped only when they reached the fork in the trail.

There was a jeep parked in front of him, with Gu Jianguo and Xiao Chen standing outside the car; the luggage at the intersection was no longer there and should have been put in the trunk.

"Here you go, get in the car." Gu Jianguo greeted, turned around and sat in the driver's seat again.

Xiao Chen opened the car door and got into the back seat with Minghua one after another. Xu Mingzhan and Comrade Ning put their luggage and got into the car together. Comrade Ning took the passenger seat, while Xu Mingzhan got into the back seat and sat next to Minghua.

Gu Jianguo drove out of the military camp, bumping down the mountain, and drove to the provincial capital. Parked outside the pier, Minghua and others got off the car one after another, unloaded their luggage and sent them to the storage point at the pier. Gu Jianguo took them to the nearest hotel.

To settle down and stay in a hotel, you need an identity document and proof; but with Xu Mingzhan’s work permit, this procedure is exempted.

There are two double rooms, one for Xu Mingzhan and Comrade Ning, and one for Minghua and Xiao Chen. There are two single beds in the room, so each can sleep in his own room.

"Comrade Xiao, Comrade Xu, it's a pity that you can't stay here for a while. I hope I'll still be here next time you come over." Gu Jianguo said with an expressionless expression.

"We will meet again if we are destined."

After saying goodbye to each other, Gu Jianguo said goodbye and left.

"Let's go out for dinner; then I'll get my boat ticket."

"You bought it so quickly?" Minghua asked.

Xu Mingzhan nodded in response, "Yes, our time arrangement is very clear, so naturally we have to buy the boat tickets in advance; however, we can't take our small stove and other things with us, so I will ask someone to help send them back to Beijing."

"You need to send something to the post office. It's past five o'clock now. I wonder if the post office is closed." Xiao Chen frowned and said worriedly, "If you can't send it, we won't be able to take it with you tomorrow. It would be a pity to lose it."

"It should be open."

With that said, the four of them went out together and went to the post office to send the things. Then they found a place to eat. After eating, Comrade Ning and Xiao Chen escorted Minghua back to the hotel. Xu Mingzhan made a phone call, and then he came over.

A man in a police uniform handed him a ferry ticket and a bunch of unknown things and hurried away.

"Got it?" Xu Mingzhan returned to the hotel and opened the door of the room where he and Comrade Ning lived. Unexpectedly, Minghua and Xiao Chen were also there.

"Well, there are four tickets for the eight-thirty-thirty boat tomorrow morning, and four visas." Xu Mingzhan asked, "Should I pack the boat tickets, or should each person release one by themselves?"

"I'll put mine on for you." After Minghua finished speaking, Xiao Chen hurriedly followed suit.

Comrade Ning has no objection. In this way, the four tickets and the visa will be kept by him, and the tickets will have to be checked when getting on and off the ship.

"Everyone will go back to your room to rest. Get up on time at 7 o'clock tomorrow. Let's go to the pier to pick up our luggage first. We will board the ship on time at 8:30. The ship to Hong Kong Island may be advanced or delayed, so it's better to go as early as possible." It's only possible to go by boat or car.

Consciously go early, as you may miss the class if you are in a hurry.

"You guys should also go to bed early." After Minghua finished speaking, she and Xiao Chen left their room. When they returned to their room, they washed their hair, bathed, and body, and then went to bed after cleaning up.

After getting on the ship, I couldn't take a shower until I reached the destination. Plus, after filming for a day, my body was covered in sweat, so I couldn't do it without taking a shower.
