Respectful ‘you’ are underlined.

Having this kind of spirit and energy was rare in an 18-year-old child.

Initially, Yu Xuanwen chose him to participate in this filming simply because of his good image and the fact he had the aura of the top scorer in the college entrance examination. As he was still schooling at X University, Yu Xuanwen felt Wen Mingyi fitted the image in his mind. Hence, not testing his acting skills nor saying much to him at all, directly signing the contract.

But now, Yu Xuanwen held a little more appreciation and admiration for him.

If Wen Mingyi intended to continue to develop in this circle, then he would definitely be very promising, Yu Xuanwen thought. He had a handsome appearance and was rather sensitive to the camera lenses. At the same time, he had excellent movement and problem analysis. Smart, and at the same time, kind. Yu Xuanwen found such a person very precious and very likable.

“It’s your own top scorer halo blessing,” Yu Xuanwen said honestly. “If you were a mediocre student, I wouldn’t have believed you. And Little Wen, is your family rich? Speaking of money like drawing out tissue paper. Seeing your attitude, I’d  think your father must be the richest man in the world!”

Wen Mingyi smiled awkwardly. Of course it was impossible to be the world’s richest man, but his dad was indeed quite rich.

Yu Xuanwen regained his seriousness after teasing him, “This time, you treated me and my crew with kindness. If there’s a suitable role in the future, I won’t forget you.”

Wen Mingyi was pleasantly surprised. “Then I’ll have to thank you!”

“You are welcome. You deserve it.” Yu Xuanwen smiled.

He had seen too many people’s ups and downs in this circle, and also seen too many people in this circle who have lost their aura and their own character. Now that he was saved by Wen Mingyi’s intelligence and kindness, he hoped that Wen Mingyi could always maintain this constant mindset. Though difficult, at least he could do some things to help.

For example, let Wen Mingyi star in his own movie.

Wen Mingyi was talking to Yu Xuanwen when he suddenly heard the phone start to vibrate. Messages kept on ‘du du du’ pouring in. He immediately looked down at the phone. There was signal!

Wen Mingyi was ready to call Si Junduo when he unlocked it but saw a call from Si Junduo coming in.

He quickly picked it up and before Si Junduo spoke, he recounted, “I’m fine, I’m very safe, everyone is fine. We are not in the village now, but in the county town. I couldn’t contact you because the mobile phone had no signal before. You don’t need to worry.”

Si Junduo was left stunned. In that moment, his tense mood finally relaxed. He held the phone and wanted to talk but his throat felt sour and hot. He lowered his eyes and took a deep breath before finally speaking.

“If nothing’s wrong, then that’s good. That’s good.”

“Then don’t worry about me. I was afraid you’ll worry.”

“En,” Si Junduo replied.

Wen Mingyi was still planning to say something, but he heard a call coming in. It was Lu Yunfei, who was probably worried about him.

He told Si Junduo, “I’m picking another call. Yunfei called me. I guess he saw the earthquake and was worried about me.”

“Okay.” Si Junduo’s tone was calm.

Wen Mingyi switched to the other line, but Si Junduo did not hang up. He raised his head and glanced at Zhuo Ran, and said warmly, “He’s all right.”

Zhuo Ran unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Thank the heavens and earth. Wen Mingyi was fine. Otherwise he didn’t know what Si Junduo would become. In these four years of university together, he had seen Si Junduo having all kinds of appearances, but never had he seen him like this. His whole person was filled with tension and depressive emotions. Zhuo Ran looked at him and thought he would crumble in the very next second.

He patted Si Junduo on the shoulder and comforted him. “If nothing’s wrong, then that’s good. Very good.”

Si Junduo gave a slight nod. “You go back ba, I can go by myself. You return to work.”

Zhuo Ran originally wanted to accompany him, but seeing him like this, he knew that Si Junduo had made up his mind. Hence Zhuo Ran didn’t persuade him anymore. He knew Si Junduo too well. When it came to Wen Mingyi, he never listened to any advice and insisted on going his own way, and would even hit the south wall without looking back, so he left Si Junduo to give him the time and space needed.

“Call me when you arrive there.”

Si Junduo nodded.

The plane was about to take off. Si Junduo hung up and sent a WeChat message to Wen Mingyi, saying that he had something to do, so he’ll hang up first.

He turned off the phone and raised his hand to cover his face, only to feel the sweat all over his body. His entire back was chilled.

Fortunately, his Ming Ming was fine. He was still alive, alive and kicking.

Wen Mingyi was currently still talking with Lu Yunfei.

At this point in time, Lu Yunfei was chatting with Bian Jinyuan at home, when he suddenly received an earthquake notification. After seeing the geographical location, he was so frightened his whole body was unwell.

He hung up Bian Jinyuan’s call and called Wen Mingyi, but no one answered.

After finally getting through, Lu Yunfei asked directly, “Are you okay? Your area was in an earthquake, are you okay?”

“I’m okay.” Wen Mingyi comforted him. “My geography knowledge is really strong. When I saw something was wrong, I immediately got everyone to evacuate.”

Lu Yunfei didn’t believe his reason, but since everything was fine, he was simply relieved.

“Where are you now, is it safe?”

“Still okay. It’s quite far from the epicenter area. I felt the tremor during the earthquake, but it was not very strong. Currently in the car driving outwards.”

“That’s good. Scared me to death.”

“I’m fine.” Wen Mingyi smiled, feeling a little moved in his heart. He tried to allay his worry, “How can I get into trouble so easily? Don’t worry.”

It was so hard for me to get my life back, how could I die here so easily.

Wait a moment. Wen Mingyi suddenly recalled that at this time in his previous life, he hadn’t died yet, so why didn’t he have any impression of this incident?

Even if this kind of natural disaster happened in a remote area, and not many deaths and injuries, he wouldn’t have paid any attention. But if Yu Xuanwen and Kang Jie were also shooting commercials here, even if they were not killed and rescued in the end, this would definitely be splashed on the news, continuing on the hot search. However, he had no impression at all. He remembered that before he died, Yu Xuanwen and Kang Jie were alive and did not encounter such danger.

What was going on?

Wen Mingyi quickly recalled what he was doing at this time in his last life. It seems that he went abroad with Zheng Feng for training and did not come back until after the Chinese New Year.

Therefore, if the earthquake in the previous life was the same, the impact was not large, and it did not cause any explosion. As he was overseas, it should be normal to miss this. But how could he explain about Yu Xuanwen and Kang Jie?

Wen Mingyi thought of what Yu Xuanwen said to him just now. “The first location I chose for the filming was not here. Before the filming started, I moved to this place.”

In other words, it was possible that Yu Xuanwen’s filming location in his previous life was the location he chose in the first place. It was just that, in this life, he made another choice so he came here.

It was not impossible. His rebirth was equivalent to a butterfly inciting wings in a sense. Any of these could be a direct or indirect butterfly effect. Wen Mingyi himself couldn’t say clearly either, but in his previous life, he did not star in this advertisement.

And now, he was sitting with Yu Xuanwen. He joined the shooting team. That meant everything was likely a result of the butterfly effect.

Wen Mingyi understood everything; finally, his heart settled.

He looked at his watch. It was 8.10 pm.

“Director Yu, are we still resting tonight?” Wen Mingyi asked him. “I think we should rest. Everyone’s spirits has been tense all day. Driving at night is too dangerous right now. Also if aftershocks occur and they are weak then we naturally don’t need to mind it, but if it is strong, there is at least shelter within the rooms but not in the car.”

Yu Xuanwen felt that what he said was reasonable, and told the driver, “Let’s find a hotel nearby to rest.”

Wen Mingyi’s final worries were gone. He called Si Junduo again, but the female voice on the phone said: “The phone you dialed has been turned off, please call again later…”

Wen Mingyi: …

Wen Mingyi silently held his forehead.

He really knew his position in Si Junduo’s mind and Si Junduo’s personality. At this time, the only thing that could cause Si Junduo to shut his phone was definitely not because there was no battery left, or a meeting of sorts. There was only one situation — his gege, who desperately wanted to cover him with a glass cover to protect him, had already boarded the plane. He was probably coming towards him.

Wen Mingyi felt that his actions were really too decisive! This person was too capable at pretending!

When he called, Si Junduo’s tone still sounded relatively calm. There was not much sadness or joy, only saying since all was fine, then it was good. He seemed to accept the matter well. But now, within two minutes of picking up a signal, Si Junduo had already boarded the plane and was coming to his side!

Really, very courageous!

The driver parked the car at a nearby hotel and the crew coordinated the arrangement and everyone received the room card for their rooms.

Wen Mingyi had already responded to Li Yuanqing’s message. After opening the door and entering the room, he told Cheng Lu, “I’ll sleep. Send me a WeChat message if there’s anything.”

“Okay.” After this incident, Cheng Lu admired him in addition to her affection. She raised her hand to touch his head and like a sister, stated, “Take a good rest. You’ve worked hard today.”

Wen Mingyi smiled and said “You too”, then entered the room and closed the door.

It was an ordinary big bedroom, not as high-end as the hotel he lived in before, but at this time he didn’t care about that. Wen Mingyi checked the time, took a fierce bath, changed his pajamas and laid on the bed.

He sent a WeChat message to tell Si Junduo the location and room number of his hotel, and took out his tablet, cat keyboard, dog keyboard, and prepared to use it in a while’s time.

Thanks to Cheng Lu, Wen Mingyi thought, otherwise these things might have been left behind.

After he noticed that it might be an earthquake, he ran to Yu Xuanwen without even thinking about it, but after hearing Yu Xuanwen’s speaker notification, Cheng Lu’s first reaction was to contact him.

She was lucky. The phone got through, and Wen Mingyi quickly explained the whole situation and asked her to come over.

Cheng Lu was surprised, and when she passed by Zhang-jie’s house, she called out Zhang-jie and took the backpack Wen Mingyi had placed on the bed.

She actually didn’t know what was in this backpack, but Wen Mingyi always took it with him, treating it very preciously, so Cheng Lu took it out for him when she escaped.

Wen Mingyi looked at his own keyboard, thinking that when he went back this time, he would give Cheng Lu a big red envelope, just in time to celebrate the Chinese New Year. It would be convenient to pack a red envelope to go home for the Chinese New Year.

He was thinking about it, when in the next second, he saw his hands become familiar husky claws. It was obvious, it was nine o’clock.

When Si Junduo got off the plane, he received Wen Mingyi’s WeChat, and his heavy heart lightened.

He thought Wen Mingyi wouldn’t know, but he was correctly guessed out.

He took a taxi to Wen Mingyi’s hotel, located Wen Mingyi’s room according to his room number, and knocked on the door.

There was rustling behind the door. Si Junduo waited for a while. The door opened. He pushed the door, walked in and saw a large husky standing behind the door.

Seeing him, the husky’s eyes lit up and rushed towards him.

Si Junduo closed the door, hugged him, and gently stroked his fur. Fortunately, it was a look familiar to him. There were no injuries, it didn’t seem as if it got out of an accident, standing in front of him alive.

Si Junduo trembled and couldn’t help but tilt his head and kiss the husky on the head. He warmly welcomed, “It’s good that nothing happened.”

Wen Mingyi rubbed his profile and licked him again, and constantly acted coquettish.

Si Junduo stood up and picked up this whole dog.

Wen Mingyi was shocked. He looked at Si Junduo in disbelief. Didn’t his ge always dislike him when he was a husky because he was too heavy and didn’t want to hug him? Why did he pick him up without saying anything today?

Wen Mingyi looked at Si Junduo with a bewildered unblinking dog face until he was put on the bed.

The author has something to say:

Ge Ge: I love Husky!

Husky Ming Ming: I feel that the dog has reached its peak! Kiss Kiss Hug Hug up high! Cool!
