The afternoon filming went extremely smoothly.
Except for the guy who was filming opposite Jiang Lingxi and it was a fighting scene, he almost burst into tears.
If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were holding realistic prop swords when filming, he really suspected that he would have died by the sword more than once.
"Okay, call it a day!"
Wei Xiao smiled and raised his hand to give an order, and the crew suddenly burst into cheers.
Finishing work half an hour earlier than scheduled means that they can also get off work half an hour earlier.
Who wouldn’t be happy to get off work early?
The actor who played opposite Jiang Lingxi listened to the cheers from all around and rubbed his still sore arms sadly.
Very good, the world where he is the only injured person in the entire crew has been achieved!
Go back to the dressing room to take off your makeup and change into your own clothes. It's exactly six o'clock.
Jiang Lingxi walked up to Xu Ling'an who was standing in front of the mirror and was adjusting her clothes, and helped her smooth the messy hair on her temples, "Perfect!"
Xu Lingan touched the skirt that her grandmother had made for her, looked into Jiang Lingxi's eyes through the mirror, took a deep breath and let it out slowly, "Sister, let's go."
She's ready!
Seeing the two of them leaving, Lu Zhengzheng quickly put down her phone and stood up, "Sister Xixi, I have already agreed with the driver to take you directly to the restaurant. Just contact him ten minutes in advance after dinner."
Jiang Lingxi nodded and took the phone. After unlocking it, she saw a several-minute video sent to her by Shen Yunqing, and her eyebrows furrowed.
But it was too late to look at it, so she simply turned off the screen again.
When he saw Gao Lan waiting outside, he saw a small bag in his hand, "Grandma, what's this?"
"It's almost a festival. I made some mooncakes at home last night. I thought I couldn't go there empty-handed. This mooncake is also a good idea."
When Jiang Lingxi heard this, she took another look at the small bag, hoping that the Zhang family would sincerely accept this gift.
"The driver is already waiting outside. Grandma, An'an, let's go."
The back seat was given to the grandfather and grandson, and Jiang Lingxi went to sit in the passenger seat, just in time to watch the video Shen Yunqing sent her in the car.
Just as he was about to put on his headphones, Xu Ling'an's voice came from behind, "Sister, do you remember Brother Xiaolei? He is going too."
Jiang Lingxi turned her head and asked, "Where is he now? Where should we pick him up?"
Xu Ling'an waved his hands hurriedly, "No, no, I gave Brother Xiaolei's address, and he said he can just go there by himself after work."
She just felt that it was necessary to tell her sister in advance.
"Is he still working in the previous restaurant?"
"That's right. His boss opened a new branch not long ago and sent him there as the sous chef."
"It shows that he has done a good job and the boss appreciates it."
However, after seeing the video Shen Yunqing sent her, Jiang Lingxi's relaxed mood when chatting with Xu Ling'an quickly disappeared.
There are two videos in total.
Xu Qingmei brought Jinghuai into the villa.
Jing Huai came out of the villa alone.
She also thoughtfully added subtitles to the video.
In just half an hour, the person who went in and the person who came out looked completely different to her.
It looked very much like the poison-controlled puppets she had seen in her previous life.
Like a walking zombie without a soul.
She typed: [Is this being controlled? 】
[It’s very possible, that’s what I speculated as well. 】
[Xu Qingmei has clearly drawn a clear line with Jing Huai, so why would she suddenly bother to control him? 】
[I suspect it’s medicine. The active substance Lu also detected in Jinghuai's blood may be the key to controlling people. 】
Jiang Lingxi suddenly thought of Xu Qingmei's dirty paw that almost fell on Shen Yunqing yesterday. Looking at Jing Huai's current situation on the video, she almost couldn't restrain the murderous intention in her heart.
In this way, Xu Qingmei originally wanted to control her prime minister, but she temporarily disturbed him and accidentally injured Jinghuai, so she settled for the next best thing!
But, damn it!
The driver, who was driving seriously in the driver's seat, felt the air around him suddenly become colder and almost hit the brakes.
Jiang Lingxi turned her head and looked over, "Drive well."
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry, Teacher Jiang."
So for the rest of the journey, the commercial vehicle drove as smoothly as ever.
Thinking that Shen Yunqing was currently helping her monitor Xu Qingmei's movements, Jiang Lingxi typed a reply uneasily: [You must be careful and stay away from Xu Qingmei, and don't let her touch a single hair of yours. In addition, don’t touch Jing Huai’s blood. Remember! 】
What the active substance is has not yet been detected, and the scene in the villa cannot be monitored, so it is unclear how Xu Qingmei uses the active substance to control people.
As the target that Xu Qingmei originally planned to control, Shen Yunqing is now more dangerous than her.
But it is impossible to stop in the face of danger.
Now we can only face the danger.
"Boss," the bearded young man looked at the man in front of him who was smiling at the mobile phone for some reason, and couldn't help but curiously approached him, "What are you looking at, smiling so ripplingly?"
Shen Yunqing raised her hand to cover the phone screen before he came over, "Have you figured out what Xu Qingmei did after she left the villa?"
The bearded young man: "...I was just about to report to you. When I chased me to a high-end residential area in the city, the signal was cut off. I strongly suspect that Xu Qingmei used a shielding device, which is high-strength and ordinary. The shielding device doesn't work on me. I don't know what big secrets she hides in her family, but she hides it so tightly."
"By the way, I also discovered that Miss Jiang's residence is not far from that residential area, just one street away."
Shen Yunqing couldn't help but give him a cold look, "I'll report back later, remember to focus on the key points first."
Bearded young man: "..."
When he returned to his pile of instruments, he patted his forehead, his eyes widened with a look of astonishment on his face.
He realized that the important point was Miss Jiang!
*
A taxi stopped at the door of Lin Mansion's Imperial Kitchen.
Xu Lei got out of the car, adjusted the suit he had specially changed into, and then looked up at the restaurant sign, which was already softly lit.
Silently I muttered in my heart "Good boy!"
Looking at this decoration, it is at least ten blocks away from the splendid style that my boss likes.
He took out his phone and looked at the location shared with An An. It was still almost two kilometers away.
When I walked to the door and waited, I couldn't help but click on my boss's profile picture and sent a message: [Brother, what do you think of the Lin family's imperial chef? 】
The boss was probably busy at the moment, so he quickly replied: "How is it? It's hard to comment." This is an old-style private kitchen that has been passed down for hundreds of years. If I work for another 30 years, I will never be able to match it. What do you think? But why did you suddenly ask about the Lin family's imperial chef? 】
[I’m going to brag to you, I came to this Lin’s Royal Chef to eat today. 】
[True or false, it’s just your kid’s salary. If you eat there, you’ll lose a month’s salary! 】
[Hey, have you forgotten why I asked you for leave today? This is the wedding ceremony for my sister. 】
[If you can choose to eat here, it seems that your sister's background is quite good. Anyway, you are not the protagonist today, so just concentrate on eating the food and see if you can get some snacks later. 】
After reading the news, Xu Lei couldn't help but turn his head and look at the restaurant door.
He heard that girl An An say that his grandfather was a calligrapher and painter, but he didn't understand it and had no idea. It wasn't until he saw the restaurant where he ate that he had some understanding.
It seems that he is really wealthy. That's fine, girl An An has been living frugally with her grandmother since she was a child. She doesn't lack love but lacks nutrition. Now she can have a few more rich relatives to love her. It's good, it's really good!
But this time when he looked over, he met eyes filled with dissatisfaction and disgust.
"Where's the security guard? No idlers are allowed in front of the restaurant. Do you want your wages to be deducted?"
Xu Lei: "..."
Idle people waiting? This aunt, who is wearing a cheongsam and has a big string of pearls hanging around her neck, looks like a noble lady. Is she talking about him?
At this moment, he felt deeply insulted by the suit he was wearing, which he had spent a huge sum of money to buy!
