Chapter 178: Chapter 136: Jiang Ning, One Must Not Be Too Kind! (Two in One)
Wang Ye, as a behind-the-scenes worker, suddenly appeared on camera, and was immediately recognized by the audience. It was clear, his fame in the country was enormous.
Since the audience could recognize him, it goes without saying that the other guests who were part of the entertainment industry were completely flabbergasted when they saw Wang Ye’s face appear behind the door.
Ling Bo, "Wang... Director Wang Ye?"
Ling Bo, after all, was someone who had won the Best Actor award and had collaborated with Wang Ye before. They had met many times at events, so they were acquainted.
"Best Actor Ling, long time no see," Wang Ye said cheerfully and then his gaze swept over the other guests behind him.
Yuan Wei, Lin Qi, Jian Tiantian, and Huo Miao recognized him too. However, the four of them were new forces in the entertainment industry and had not yet had the chance to interact with a renowned director like Wang Ye. When Wang Ye’s gaze fell upon them, they became tense, their spines straighter than usual.
Wang Ye opened the door and let everyone in, "Why have you arrived so late? I’ve been waiting here for so many days."
Thinking of the hardships of being abandoned by the production team on the desolate island, Ling Bo felt a bit embarrassed, "The production team dropped us off too far away... we walked for two whole days to get here."
"I see," Wang Ye nodded, as if realizing something, "Right, there was a guy who came with me before, but he left the next day. Seemed like he took a map to look for you; have you seen him? He’s quite tall and strangely handsome."
Ling Bo nodded, "Yes, he’s behind us; he’s with us."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ye also noticed Qi Xingzhou’s figure in the crowd and felt somewhat relieved.
"Hurry, hurry. You’ve walked such a long way, you must be exhausted. Come in and sit down." Wang Ye called everyone in and asked, "Have you had dinner? There’s some food in the kitchen."
"Haven’t eaten! Starving!" Yuan Wei couldn’t wait to respond, full of grievances.
Indeed, it was evident: Wang Ye was dressed in loose home clothes, seemingly having just taken a shower, with moist hair, looking clean and refreshed. In contrast, Ling Bo and the others were without exception, all covered in dust and dirt, their faces haggard, looking very much like refugees who had fled a disaster.
Even the usually exquisitely beautiful female stars Jian Tiantian and Huo Miao were barefaced, looking much more disheveled than usual.
Wang Ye stepped aside to let everyone in, and upon hearing they hadn’t eaten, he immediately took out fruits and snacks for everyone to eat.
The men, usually so genteel on camera, were now like refugees, gobbling down food. Even Jian Tiantian and Huo Miao ate more hurriedly than usual.
Jiang Ning sat on the sofa, took a piece of sandwich bread, broke it by hand, and ate it in small bites.
Qi Xingzhou sat beside her, carefully peeling an apple with a peeler.
Wang Ye had a towel draped over his shoulder and laughed upon seeing this scene, "I wondered why he was so anxious to head into the forest; turns out it was to look for you."
On the day the show started filming, the staff picked up Wang Ye and Qi Xingzhou from the airport and then brought them to the remote desolate island and left.
Wang Ye had lived in big cities all these years and had never stayed in such a remote place. One second, he was lamenting how lucky he was that the production team arranged a companion for him; otherwise, staying alone on this island for a month, he would’ve surely gone mad. At least with Qi Xingzhou, he had someone to talk to when bored, although... when he tried to converse with Qi Xingzhou, he never got a response.
But his relief didn’t last for many days as Qi Xingzhou started packing silently one day and headed towards the forest behind them.
Initially, Wang Ye didn’t react, but when he saw Qi Xingzhou holding a map provided by the production team, he realized the other party was planning to leave!
Wang Ye hurried to stop him, but Qi Xingzhou was insistent. If even Qi family members couldn’t stop him, Wang Ye certainly couldn’t, so he could only stand there and watch him slowly disappear into the forest.
Now, seeing Qi Xingzhou return safely and with so many guests, Wang Ye was truly happy.
Seeing that everyone indeed looked famished, Wang Ye went into the kitchen and cooked a pot of steaming noodles, adding plenty of eggs, turning it a rich golden color.
The simple egg noodles were served, making everyone drool in anticipation.
Lin Qi ate his noodles with big bites, looking completely satisfied, "This is great, feels like I’ve come to heaven."
