Around 11:30 p.m., Sisi was still awake. First, with her bare feet, she quietly approached her parents' room, tilted her face and put her ear against the door to listen. She found that her parents were not moving inside, and they might have fallen asleep.
She then quietly returned to her room. Then she opened QQ, muted it, and sent a message to Zhong Yunqing.
As for Zhong Yunqing, he was used to going to bed late both in his previous life and now. He was busy writing and editing manuscripts. When he saw her urging, he immediately replied:
"Well, I'm here, why don't you rest?"
As soon as his message was sent, the girl responded quickly:
"I can't sleep. I have something I want to tell you."
Yeah? His little girlfriend stayed up late at night to chat with him? Then there is still a lot of hesitation! This guy instantly felt that it was not good to save manuscripts.
I quickly closed the writer’s page and concentrated on chatting with her.
"Well, tell me what you have to say."
This time my girlfriend did not reply immediately, but took almost half a minute to reply:
"Tomorrow my parents will go to the college to ask for leave for me, and then send me to the crew."
When Zhong Yunqing read this message, he thought she wanted to say that she couldn't go with him.
This is nothing, he can understand it. He had guessed that this would be the case when Dad Liu came to pick her up.
So he smiled and coded his reply:
"Okay, then I'll leave early tomorrow and go there first."
As a result, when the girl saw his message, she immediately replied:
"You idiot, I didn't mean to let you go by yourself! I just wanted to say that you should go in the car with us tomorrow."
"ah?"
Zhong Yunqing is a little confused now! If the girl is like this, doesn't she want him to meet his parents now?
"Sister, you really want to play this big! Is it too early for me to meet your parents now?"
Not only is it too early! Putting it in his perspective, if Father Liu knew that Zhong Yunqing had already coveted his little cotton-padded jacket when Sisi was only seventeen years old... he would probably go crazy on the spot!
Fortunately, Sisi is a very sensible girl. When she saw her boyfriend’s random reply, she immediately corrected his random thoughts:
"What are you thinking about! I just want to let you take a ride with us! I won't let my parents know that we are in love right now!"
"Then you still..." Zhong Yunqing didn't even finish typing the words, but the new news from the girl arrived again:
"But as long as we are together, we will have to meet our parents sooner or later. So now I will let you get to know each other first. I will take you home later, so you won't be embarrassed when we meet again! Hehe!"
Zhong Yunqing doesn't understand the brain circuits of girls, so he can only complain madly in his mind:
"This will only make it more embarrassing!"
Without waiting for his reply, Sisi simply sent the message with final word:
"That's it, you wait for us at the school gate at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Then I will tell my parents that you and I met when we were auditioning on the set..."
Then Sisi acted as the "chief conspirator" and Zhong Yunqing acted as the "accessory". The two of them started an "ulterior" conspiracy with each other!
…………
At nine thirty the next morning, Zhong Yunqing had to wait half an hour longer than Sisi expected.
But after all, he was meeting his future "father-in-law" and "mother-in-law." Not only did he not complain, but he felt a little nervous.
After all, he had never been married in his previous life, and this was his first informal "meeting his parents"!
He was pacing back and forth in the shade of the trees by the roadside of the school gate, thinking about his first words when he met Sisi's parents.
Then he saw a black Buick car, which slowly drove up to him and stopped.
The window of the back seat rolled down, revealing Sisi's little head:
"Old Zhong, come here quickly..."
At this time, the passenger window was slowly lowered, and a middle-aged woman whose eyebrows looked somewhat similar to Sisi's, and the fat middle-aged uncle in the cab, looked at him with scrutiny.
"Dad, please open the trunk first and let him put his luggage."
Zhong Yunqing put the suitcase away, then got into the back seat from the door on the other side of Sisi, and then greeted with a somewhat reserved expression:
"Hello, uncle and aunt, my name is Zhong Yunqing, and I'm on the same crew as Sisi. I'm sorry to trouble you this time."
…………
There is actually a reason why Father Liu and Mother Liu came together to help Sisi ask for leave.
After all, this girl is still a student of Beijing Dance University. Of course, she is already a junior this year.
Originally, Sisi's qualifications for learning dance were not very good, and her teacher told her so frankly.
Sisi's family members are well aware of this, and they all know that she is unlikely to achieve great success in the field of dance in the future.
In the previous life, Sisi had an interview after she became famous. She said without hesitation: If she had not entered the entertainment industry, she might have opened a tutoring class and become a children's dance teacher.
Therefore, if she has the opportunity to take on a role and become an actress, it can be regarded as a way out in the future. As parents, Liu's parents learned that she had signed a contract with a film crew, so they came to the academy to help her ask for leave to film.
Also thanks to Sisi's usual good performance in school, the teacher in charge didn't allow her to take leave when she was informed that she wanted to take time off for filming, and the leave was completed smoothly.
So, under Sisi's "instigation", Zhong Yunqing, as a crew member, was forced to "meet the parents" with her sister at the gate of Beijing Dance School.
Of course, although Zhong Yunqing agreed to ride in her father's car with Sisi, but once she said it, he wouldn't dare to let the two elders of the Liu family know that he was Sisi's boyfriend!
Otherwise, I'm afraid it will give these two parents a bad first impression! They think he is suspected of abducting an underage girl! (After all, Sisi was only a seventeen-year-old girl when they met.)
After listening to Zhong Yunqing's self-introduction, Dad Liu looked at him in the rearview mirror, and then asked in a playful tone:
"Xiao Zhong, right? How do you and our family Sisi know each other?"
This is actually a very normal question for parents. After all, my little cotton-padded jacket suddenly asked him to pick up a strange young man at the school gate. A serious father must quickly understand the situation!
What Zhong Yunqing didn't know was that Liu's parents had repeatedly warned Sisi a long time ago, telling her that she was under twenty and would never be allowed to fall in love!
But feelings are beyond human control. Sisi was captured by an "uncle" from later generations when she was eighteen years old!
She knew her parents' tempers, so after disobeying her parents' "orders", she could only choose to hide it temporarily.
In the mind of the girl who is currently in the rebellious stage, it is only two years away. After a while, her boyfriend will be "justified" and officially meet his parents.
So Sisi and Zhong Yunqing used QQ last night to discuss how to deal with the situation. They unified the conversational tone for those who might be "interrogated" by parents.
Zhong Yunqing actually knew that it was a bit unkind to "lie to parents" like this. But he still lied with his sister conscientiously.
After all, he couldn't tell Liu's parents and Liu's mom that he met her when she was working as a massage parlor in Hengdian! And then this time, by chance, he and Sisi met unexpectedly on the set of Yanjing?
Please, this is not a novel, how can there be so many bloody encounters!
If he really dared to tell the truth honestly, it would only make Liu's parents aware of the unusual relationship between him and Sisi right away!
Therefore, telling a little white lie appropriately at this time is a very sensible approach!
So, Zhong Yunqing, who was relieved of his knot, responded to the two elders of the Liu family with a calm expression:
"It's like this. Sisi and I actually just met. On the day of the audition, we were assigned to the same group to perform. Later, after the audition, we chatted and found out that she was a student of Beijing Dance University, and she knew
I happen to live in a community near Beiwu..."
Isn’t it perfect to talk nonsense like this?
Sisi secretly suppressed her laughter, fearing that she would be discovered, so she could only turn her face to look at the scenery outside the window.
Sure enough, after listening to his reply, although there were still some doubts, Father Liu and Mother Liu did not ask further questions.
But Liu Ma changed the topic to giving the proposition:
"Oh, that's it. I heard from Sisi that you and she are playing a couple this time?"
This must be told truthfully! Mother Liu has also filmed, so she can understand the script! As long as you have the slightest bit of concealment, be prepared to face the strong wind from your mother-in-law!
"Yes, aunt, this is true. The scholar I played this time and Guo Furong, played by Sisi, are a couple in the script."
This sentence made Liu's father and Liu's mother look at each other without any trace.
"Dad, please focus on driving, we are almost late!"
When Sisi saw that her parents were asking questions, she was afraid that her boyfriend would accidentally expose her, so she quickly spoke out to save her.
…………
The shooting location of "Wulin Gaiden" is Feilong Film and Television Base in PG District, Yanjing City.
There were several traffic jams on the road, and it was already noon when Dad Liu drove to the place.
Fortunately, several conversations were resolved without incident. The two elders of the Liu family and Zhong Yunqing were considered acquainted.
Then when it was time for lunch, Liu's father treated him to a treat, and the "family" had an "informal" lunch together at a nearby restaurant. At around 1:30, he took the two of them to the hotel where the crew was located.
Fortunately, there are no shooting plans today. The crew will arrange staff to receive the actors who join the set and help allocate rooms. Then they will have a kick-off banquet in the afternoon.
Shooting will not begin until the opening ceremony is over at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.
According to the contract signed by the two of them, the filming time for this drama is about five months.
Although Liu Sisi's family is from Yanjing, the crew's filming schedule was tight and she didn't have much time to go home. So she brought a little more luggage.
Another thing is that the budget of the Wulin Gaiden crew is relatively limited, and the issue of accommodation can only be said to be as frugal as possible. Therefore, they can only rent a small hotel with not many rooms.
Therefore, in terms of room allocation, among the several actors, except Yan Ni, who plays the shopkeeper, and Sha Yi, who plays Lao Bai, all have single rooms, while the remaining main actors all have double rooms.
Sisi and Mo Xiaobei's room, Zhong Yunqing and Li Dazui's room.
The other supporting actors are also treated as two in a room.

…………
I’ll tell you something later.
The word count is coming up soon, and I’m going to start writing and saving the manuscript during this time. So I’ll keep updating it once a day until it’s put on the shelf.
If you feel that the first update is not enough, you can keep it for now. It will be released around May 7th, and you can read twenty or thirty chapters at a time.
Another one, I will speed up a plot when the time comes.
It is expected that on the first day it is released, you will see the supporting characters appear one after another, and Qing Shi and his wife will enter the Tang Dynasty together.
Then the main plot of the book unfolds, and the exciting plot officially begins.
However, Da Zongzi still has to ask everyone here to support the book and support the book. Remember to vote on time every day.
After all, I am very busy at work and only have time to type after get off work. Only when I see everyone’s support can I be in a good mood and write and save manuscripts with high quality and quantity●?●
