Chapter 87 A Gift Made by Liu Haochun
"Huh? Did you fail?"
"One hundred and twenty points above the cutoff." Lin Feng handed her his phone. "Tell me, were you deliberately playing Versailles?"
"What?!" Tian Xiwei snatched the phone, looked at it three times, then suddenly screamed, grabbed Lin Feng's arm, and jumped up, "I passed! I scored over a hundred points more! Brother Feng, aren't I amazing?!"
"Amazing, amazing," Lin Feng said with a smile, ruffling her hair. "Our Tian Xiwei is the best."
Liu Haochun also came over, smiling, and said, "Congratulations, Weiwei! Now we can go to the Beijing Film Academy together."
"That's great!" Tian Xiwei hugged Liu Haochun tightly, her earlier nervousness turning into excitement. "We'll be classmates from now on! We can even act together!"
Seeing the two of them hugging and cheering, he clapped his hands and said, "Let's wrap up work early this afternoon. We're going to a restaurant tonight; order whatever you want, it's on me!"
"Yay! Long live Brother Feng!"
As evening falls, the neon lights of crayfish restaurants in Jiangcheng come on early, mingling with the spicy aroma wafting through the air.
"Boss, two pounds of each of the three flavors, please!" Xiao Tian said as soon as he entered, holding the menu. "Make the braised one bigger, the spicy one extra spicy, and the garlic one extra garlic!"
"Slow down," Lin Feng pulled her down to sit, "Nobody's going to take it from you." He turned to Liu Haochun, "Haochun, can you eat spicy food now?"
Liu Haochun nodded slightly, "A little bit of spice is fine."
"I'll save you a few extra garlic ones." Lin Feng handed the menu back to the waiter, glancing at Xiao Tian who had already rolled up his sleeves, rubbing his hands together, ready to eat. He couldn't help but shake his head; this was the Xiao Tian he knew.
When the crayfish were served, three large plates filled the table, and the aroma wafted into the air. Xiao Tian had just put on her gloves and was about to reach for some when she suddenly stopped, as if she had remembered something. Instead, she picked up the largest spicy crayfish and began to peel it carefully.
After peeling it, she handed it to Lin Feng, saying, "Brother Feng, you eat first."
Lin Feng paused for a moment, then took it and put it in his mouth. "Eat it yourself," he said vaguely.
"It's okay, I'll peel another one." Xiao Tian picked up another garlic clove, peeled it, and handed it to Liu Haochun. "Haochun, this one isn't spicy, you can try it."
Liu Haochun accepted it, flattered. "Thank you, Weiwei."
Watching Xiaotian peel shrimp with his head down, she suddenly felt that the Xiaotian who had "changed" in the past few days was making her feel a little unaccustomed to him.
As Lin Feng watched this scene, his doubts resurfaced. Just then, his phone rang; it was a video call request from Li Yitong.
"Hey, boss." Li Yitong, who had just removed her makeup, had her hair casually tied up and looked a little tired. "What are you guys doing?"
"Let's eat crayfish!" Xiaotian immediately moved in front of the camera, holding up a freshly peeled crayfish and waving it around. "Sister Yitong, this place is super delicious! We'll take you here to eat after you finish filming!"
"Okay," Li Yitong nodded with a smile, her gaze falling on Lin Feng. "Boss, is your foot feeling better?"
"I'm fine now." Raymond Lam stretched his ankle. "How's filming going over there?"
"It's alright, just a bit boring," Li Yitong sighed. "I don't know many people in the crew, and I can only stay in the hotel after work every day."
"I'll treat you to a big meal when you come back," Raymond Lam said. "Focus on filming and don't overthink it."
"Okay, boss," Li Yitong blinked. "You guys eat, I need to get ready to film a night scene."
After hanging up the video call, Xiao Tian clung to Lin Feng's arm and asked, "Brother Feng, how long will it take for Sister Yitong to film?"
"It's estimated to be around September or October," Raymond Lam said, peeling a shrimp. "Fighter of the Destiny is a big production with many episodes and a long filming period."
"Oh? That's been so long." Xiaotian was a little disappointed. "I was hoping to have hot pot with her."
"There will be plenty of opportunities when she comes back," Liu Haochun said softly, placing a garlic shrimp in Xiaotian's bowl. "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
When they had almost finished eating, Xiaotian suddenly clutched her stomach and leaned back in her chair, saying, "I can't take it anymore, I'm stuffed."
"Who told you to eat so much just now?" Lin Feng said with a smile, handing her a bottle of yogurt. "Drink some to help with digestion."
Liu Haochun also put down his chopsticks and rubbed his stomach: "I can't eat anymore either. If I eat any more, I'll get fat from dance practice tomorrow."
"It's better to be a little chubby." Xiao Tian said indistinctly while sipping his yogurt, "Look at Feng Ge, he eats so much but doesn't get fat, it's so annoying."
"It's natural; I can't gain weight no matter what I eat."
After paying the bill, the three walked out of the crayfish restaurant. Xiao Tian let out a satisfied burp and suddenly said, "Brother Feng, let's go to the night market! I heard there are lots of delicious things to eat there!"
"You can still eat?" Raymond Lam raised an eyebrow.
"Not today, but maybe tomorrow!" Xiaotian patted his chest confidently. "My stomach is flexible!"
Liu Haochun couldn't help but speak up, "Actually, I also want to go and see. I've heard from classmates that Jiangcheng's soup dumplings are particularly famous."
"Okay, then I'll go tomorrow."
The next afternoon, the crew wrapped up filming before the shoot. Xiao Tian and Liu Haochun changed into nice clothes and stood at the hotel entrance waiting for him. One was wearing a pale yellow dress, and the other was wearing a light blue shirt with a black skirt.
"Let's go, buy whatever you want today, it's on me." Lin Feng opened the car door.
"Yay! Long live Brother Feng!" Xiao Tian rushed into the car, turned around and waved to Liu Haochun, "Haochun, come on up!"
In the mall, Xiaotian pulled Liu Haochun straight to the women's clothing section. "Haochun, look at this!" she exclaimed, holding up a pink Peter Pan collar blouse. "Doesn't it suit you perfectly?"
Liu Haochun shook her head: "I don't really like pink." She picked up a white knitted cardigan. "This one looks nice."
"Try it on, try it on!" Without saying a word, Xiaotian shoved the shirt into her hands, then grabbed a pair of overalls and rushed into the fitting room.
For the next two hours, Raymond Lam became a "walking clothes rack" and a "praise machine".
The two changed clothes so many times that he was dazzled. One moment they were wearing sweet princess dresses, the next they were wearing cool jeans. In the end, Lin Feng was carrying more and more bags, from clothes to shoes.
There were also two half-human-sized rabbit plush toys, which Xiaotian insisted on buying because she said it would be "especially comfortable to hug while sleeping."
"Are we buying more?" Lin Feng asked, looking at the dozen or so bags in his hand. "If we buy any more, the trunk won't be big enough to hold them all."
"I'm not buying anymore!" Xiaotian hugged her rabbit doll, her eyes crinkling into slits with laughter. "I've had a very fruitful day!"
"I told you it was a reward," Lin Feng said, ruffling her hair. "Come on, put your things in the car, then we'll go to the night market."
At the night market, Xiao Tian pulled Liu Haochun through the crowd, saying, "Slow down, don't get lost." Lin Feng followed behind, carrying some freshly bought Sanxiang bean curd sheets, "Eat this to tide you over."
Xiao Tian took the bean curd sheet, took a big bite, and stuck out her tongue because it was so hot: "Delicious! The glutinous rice inside smells so good!"
Liu Haochun also took a bite and nodded, saying, "It tastes better than the sticky rice we have back home."
The three of them ate their way through the walk, from soup dumplings to beef offal noodles, from roasted chicken wings to ice jelly. By the end, Xiaotian was squatting on the ground, clutching his stomach. "I can't eat anymore. I'm going to explode if I eat any more."
"Who told you to eat so much? Let's go back to the hotel."
The car was piled with shopping bags and plush toys. Xiao Tian leaned back in the back seat, dozing off while hugging a rabbit plush toy. Liu Haochun, sitting in the passenger seat, said, "Brother Feng, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for?"
"Thank you for taking me to eat so much delicious food and buying me so many clothes. Actually, I'm going to the set of 'Hello, Old Times' tomorrow. I was quite nervous at first, but now I feel like I'm not so scared anymore."
Lin Feng turned to look at her, "Senior Brother Zhou Ming is very reliable. If you don't understand anything, just ask him, or give me a call. I'll come over to find you as soon as I finish filming here."
"Mmm." Liu Haochun nodded vigorously. She knew Feng Ge was very busy, and it was a great honor that he had taken the time to accompany her shopping.
It's already quite difficult to get a snack.
When they got back to the hotel, Xiaotian was still asleep. "I'll take her upstairs," Lin Feng said. "Haochun, you should get some rest. We have to travel tomorrow."
"Okay." Liu Haochun watched him carry Xiaotian on his back, then suddenly remembered something, took a small box out of the bag and handed it over, "Brother Feng, this is for you."
It's a handmade amulet, sewn from red cloth, with a little rabbit embroidered on it. "I sewed it last night, wishing Brother Feng a smooth and safe filming experience."
"Thank you, Haochun." Lin Feng accepted the amulet.
