Hearing Ning Xiaoyu’s request, some anti-fans spread speculation.
【It sounds fine now but who knows what demands she’ll make to the movie king in the future?】
【People’s hearts always change, especially for someone like Ning Xiaoyu who’s good at pretending. I don’t believe there’s someone in this world who is indifferent to the movie king’s promise.】
【Wait and see. Before long, Ning Xiaoyu will make a big request. It’s just a matter of time.】
【The movie king is so naive, he didn’t limit the number of requests. One knows that a person who is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.】
If Ning Xiaoyu knew what they were saying, she would definitely say, “You guys are thinking highly of this salted fish”.
She had no big ambitions and only wanted to lie completely flat. She didn’t want to engage in intrigue, let alone take advantage of others.
After all, to take advantage of someone, aside from having the skill, one had to use one’s brain.
Even if she saved Lu Jingdu once, she didn’t believe he would unconditionally agree to all her demands.
How could someone who could become a popular movie king be a fool?
As for Ning Xiaoyu’s true fans, they felt distressed and amused at the same time.
What was distressing was that Ning Xiaoyu couldn’t move right now, so her injury was probably quite serious. She said it was nothing, probably because she didn’t want to worry others. What’s amusing was that at such a time, she didn’t ask for benefits or comfort from Brother Lu Jingdu nor ask the program team to rush over with the doctor, but all she could think about was eating.
Their emotions were a little complicated for a while.
If it were an ordinary girl, even if she didn’t cry, she would definitely not be as calm as Ning Xiaoyu, as if nothing happened.
Lu Jingdu doesn’t have much contact with girls, and the ones he usually comes into contact with are either actresses or socialites with comparable family backgrounds. But the people he met, whether they were actresses or wealthy ladies, were all the kind who would make everyone know about the slightest injury.
The most exaggerated one was when one of his younger cousins cried and said she was injured. He hurriedly rushed over to take a look, only to find a wound on the other person’s index finger that couldn’t be seen without careful observation.
Supposedly, the other party’s index finger was scratched by the edge of a leaf.
From how it sounded, he thought something was wrong with her.
So he had an impression that girls were all like that.
Until he met Ning Xiaoyu who was unable to move but never complained a word.
Lu Jingdu was silent for two seconds, then nodded his head. “Okay.”
Passing a cupcake was just a small matter.
He brought over the cross-body bag that fell on the side. Although it wasn’t big, it was surprisingly heavy.
After Lu Jingdu opened it, he once again fell silent.
He saw a few bottles of milk in the bag, some exquisite cupcakes, and small pastries. There were also melon seeds in the mix.
The bag was heavy because it was stuffed with food.
Lu Jingdu stared for a few seconds, then took a cupcake that still looked fine, and handed it to Ning Xiaoyu.
She still only had one eye open as she took the cupcake from him with her uninjured right hand. “Thanks, I brought plenty. If you want to eat, you are welcome.”
【Movie King: Then thank you?】
【Movie King: What should I say?】
【Movie King: (Speechless) Just enjoy your food.】
【Hahahaha.】
【So, Xiao Yu doesn’t have any cosmetics in her bag?】
【I thought female stars would at least bring sunscreen, but no, she only brings food!】
【Our Xiao Yu is so good-looking because she’s born beautiful!】
Ning Xiaoyu, as a little-known actress, didn’t even have an assistant, let alone a stylist.
Among the female stars that resorted to all sorts of ways to compete for beauty, relying on makeup and clothing every day, she appears very ordinary.
She had no exclusive stylist to style her hair and clothing for her, and no top makeup artist to apply the right makeup.
Her face was bare every day.
When she stood together with Ning Yuwei, who had a gorgeous appearance, exquisite makeup, and was always dressed in haute couture, exuding the temperament of a popular female star, the audience would subconsciously overlook Ning Xiaoyu’s appearance.
So far, Ning Xiaoyu’s fans were all attracted by her character.
When a certain audience member said that, the audience took a closer look and realized that Ning Xiaoyu’s facial features were actually good.
It’s just that her hair and clothing were too ordinary and no different from ordinary people, obscuring her appearance so that the audience always subconsciously ignored it.
【This is the first time I have followed a female celebrity not because of her looks but because of her personality.】
【Xiao Yu’s temperament is really nice.】
【Anyway, I don’t like Ning Yuwei’s face, I just like Xiao Yu, who is down-to-earth.】
【But what’s wrong with Xiao Yu’s eyes?】
Fortunately, at this time, the movie king helped them solve this confusion.
Lu Jingdu pondered for a while before asking carefully, “Is your right eye uncomfortable?”
Ning Xiaoyu gave him a strange look and replied, “No.”
Lu Jingdu’s brows furrowed slightly. “Then why aren’t you opening your right eye?”
Ning Xiaoyu took a bite of the exquisitely made cupcake and let out a sigh of enjoyment. “Lazy.”
Audience: “……”
Lu Jingdu: “……”
【This is the first time I’ve heard such a plain and simple reason.】
【Even the word ‘because’ is omitted, marvelous!】
【My first reaction was that this is more real than real gold.】
【I’m laughing like crazy.】
【Xiao Yu doesn’t treat us as outsiders and just tells the truth, hahaha.】
【Xiao Yu cheated me out of my feelings. I thought your eyes were hurt just now! Fortunately, it’s only a false alarm and there’s nothing wrong with your eyes.】
【Brothers and sisters, I have one question, can it really save some effort by opening one less eye?】
Some viewers subconsciously tried it out.
Once they did, they thought, hey, it really feels different.
It could indeed save some effort.
As a result, the audience followed Ning Xiaoyu’s lead and played along.
After eating a snack and soothing her frightened heart, Ning Xiaoyu closed her eyes once again and placed her hands on both sides of her legs in a peaceful, salted fish posture.
Lying on the grass while basking in the sun was quite comfortable.
Not to mention that the environment in the forest park was very good. The air was fresh and there were occasional bird calls, making it a great place to relax.
After basking in the sun and the pain from the sprain gradually disappeared, Ning Xiaoyu felt a little drowsy.
She was about to fall asleep when she suddenly noticed that the air coming out of her nose seemed to have hit some obstacle, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
She opened her left eye, and the next second, locked eyes with Lu Jingdu, who was reaching out to check her breathing.
Seeing her open her eyes, Lu Jingdu calmly withdrew his right hand.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Ning Xiaoyu took the initiative to explain, “I’m just tired.”
“Hmm.” After two seconds of silence, Lu Jingdu spoke, “I’ve already contacted the crew. The rescue team is also on their way. They’ll be here in about a quarter of an hour.”
Ning Xiaoyu let out an “Oh”, indicating that she knew.
Then she closed her eyes again, ready to sleep.
Lu Jingdu sat casually not far from her. His baseball cap had been taken off and without sunglasses and cap covering his appearance, his captivating face was completely exposed to the sun, clear enough that his lashes could even be counted.
The fangirls in the live broadcast room screamed crazily when they saw this beautiful image.
Unfortunately, there was no one on the scene to appreciate it.
He spoke up, “Let’s talk for a while.”
Ning Xiaoyu opened her eyes and looked at him, then she signaled him with her eyes to just talk, she’ll listen.
Lu Jingdu: “……”
【Movie King: This is the first time I’ve encountered such a thing.】
【Movie King: I’m afraid that you’ll fall asleep, and even more afraid that you’ll sleep through everything.】
【Movie King: Talking won’t affect your physical strength too much.】
【I kind of understand Brother’s thoughts, but it’s a pity that the other party doesn’t cooperate. I feel sorry for Brother, hahaha.】
In normal times, no matter how Ning Xiaoyu sleeps, the audience wouldn’t care too much.
Anyway, it wasn’t the first time she’d slept in front of a live audience.
On that previous occasion in the garden, she had not only slept but had also slept soundly.
Only, she was injured just now.
This slope wasn’t exactly smooth and was quite high, roughly a few meters from the top, and the two tumbled for a full minute or so.
A normal person rolling down from such a high place would either be disabled or killed.
Ning Xiaoyu hugged Lu Jingdu as they tumbled, using herself as a human cushion to lessen the damage. He was fine except for a little bit of dust and grass on his body, but it was impossible for Ning Xiaoyu to remain unharmed.
The audience worried that Ning Xiaoyu might look alright, but in reality, she just wasn’t feeling it due to adrenaline.
【Wuuwuuwuu, don’t let anything happen to Xiao Yu.】
【Xiao Yu don’t sleep! You can’t sleep!】
The audience still didn’t know her that much.
Ning Xiaoyu wanted to sleep only because she was being a salted fish.
Lu Jingdu’s gaze was fixed on Ning Xiaoyu, keeping an eye on her state. “How are you doing now?”
Ning Xiaoyu didn’t even bother to open her eyes this time and simply replied, “Pretty good.”
Previously, when she said she was fine, Lu Jingdu didn’t believe her, so this time, she emphasized her tone and told him she was doing ‘pretty good’. He should feel rest assured, right?
However, Ning Xiaoyu’s words were not believed by the audience.
【I feel distress for Xiao Yu. She’s afraid people will worry so she’s enduring the pain alone.】
【I hope Xiao Yu isn’t severely injured.】
【I’ve only been a fan of the anchor for a short time, so the anchor must be fine.】
While the audience was waiting anxiously, help finally arrived.
In terms of time, the speed of the rescue wasn’t too slow.
However, the audience was overly worried and felt like days had passed. Even though it was less than half an hour since the accident, they still think it was super long.
When the doctor arrived at the scene, he immediately gave Ning Xiaoyu a simple physical examination.
During the check, everyone was very quiet, and the audience couldn’t help holding their breaths, praying that Ning Xiaoyu was fine.
After a few minutes, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief. “To be sure, she needs to go to the hospital for further examination, but there doesn’t seem to be a big problem. Ms. Ning’s injuries aren’t bad.”
Lu Jingdu was a little unconvinced and he frowned slightly. “But she looks extremely sleepy.”
Could it be due to a brain injury or other reasons?
The true fans in the live broadcast room also pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
The doctor smiled. “That’s because she was frightened just now and was tired.”
High EQ: She’s tired.
Low EQ: She’s just being a salted fish.
After a few seconds of silence, the audience realized that Ning Xiaoyu hadn’t lied earlier.
It was unknown which audience member suddenly said what everyone was thinking.
【She’s okay even after descending from such a height. Brothers and Sisters, it’s solid proof that the anchor is a blessed salted fish!】
