Surprise! The wife of a top star is actually a Nobel Prize winner
Chapter 220: Late Altitude Sickness
"Okay, then I'll come back with you." With Li Xiao by her side, she should feel much more at ease.
Li Xiao was puzzled. "Can you come back with me? You should wait until everything is over before you come back. I may not be able to take so many days off."
"No, the National Security Agency told me not to attend the ceremony as my grandparents' descendant in order to protect my identity." Seeing Li Xiao's face full of disbelief and worry, she quickly explained, "Don't worry, our family already held a ceremony two years ago when the incident happened. This time, we're just avenging our grandparents and letting them rest in peace. Uncle Qian said it's okay for me to send them off as an ordinary person."
Even though the girl spoke so calmly and naturally, he still felt sorry for her.
His girl is really the strongest girl in the world. She has had a miserable fate since childhood, but she still grew up so well and is so kind and positive.
He couldn't help but rub her head gently, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I'll go back with you, and come back together. I'll try to take a few more days off."
"Thank you, brother!" Qian Cencheng felt the love from him, but this time she greedily allowed herself to enjoy a moment of warmth.
...
Qian Cencheng's altitude sickness had basically eased by the second day, and she regained some energy.
But Li Xiao's slight headache continued, and he didn't take it seriously.
The next day was the script reading, and he met the popular male and female protagonists as well as other members of the creative team.
Both the male and female protagonists are quite approachable, unlike some of the hottest stars who are arrogant and out of reach.
The atmosphere during the reading was very good. The producer and director were very good at motivating everyone. After a day of reading, he had quickly become familiar with the cast and crew.
The day's work went smoothly and the director let them go before five in the afternoon.
Most of the people were filming here for the first time, so he was considerate and asked everyone to go back early to rest or to walk around the area if they had the energy, after all, it was a nationally famous tourist city.
Li Xiao found the director and told him that he would need a few days off around the 15th because he had something very important to deal with back in Beijing. He hoped that the director could help move his scenes forward or backward, even if he had a full schedule every day during the initial period.
He also knew that it would not be good to ask for leave as soon as he joined the crew, so he told the director frankly that he had no other announcements except this play, and he would stay in the crew after taking leave. Even if he did not have a role to play, he would stay in the crew to observe and learn from other teachers' acting.
The director saw the handsome guy in front of him who was afraid that he would be unhappy because of his leave, and he was a little impressed by his honesty.
Originally, he hadn't planned to rehearse many scenes for himself. Most of the scenes rehearsed at the beginning were scenes of the male and female protagonists' childhood. The second male lead's scenes were indeed scheduled for more than ten days later.
We let him join the crew so early for two reasons: one was to let him participate in the script reading in the next few days; the other was that we knew he was a newcomer and had never filmed here before, so we wanted him to first adapt to the state of filming in the plateau environment.
Now, when he heard that he needed to take a few days off for something, the director readily agreed and asked him to keep his word. He must not be absent even when he has no scenes to perform during these days, and must come to the theater to familiarize himself with the environment and learn some acting.
Li Xiao nodded in agreement and sincerely thanked Director Wang for approving his leave.
The reading session over the next few days was also completed in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
In just a few days, Li Xiao quickly got along well with all the actors and staff on the crew.
Director Wang Yi's crew is made up of people he is used to, and the actors he chooses are not troublemakers, so the entire crew is harmonious. It is the most harmonious crew he has encountered in all the crews he has been on.
After the script reading was completed, some supporting actors who were not scheduled to perform in the show did temporarily leave the group.
Although his role was not scheduled at the beginning, he still followed the crew every day and went out early and came back late, watching other people perform, helping the props team move props, and helping the stage staff set up the stage. Sometimes when there were not enough extras, he would use his strengths to make up the number. It can be said that Li Xiao was a brick and could be moved wherever he was needed.
The director team had never seen such a young man before. He was humble and could get along with anyone. He would come forward to help as long as you asked for something. He was very respectful and polite to the director, seniors, and crew members. From time to time, he would treat the entire crew to food and drinks.
Naturally, he became the darling of the entire crew.
That's right, ever since he came here, he has had a dull headache that has never stopped, and his insomnia at night is more severe than before.
At first, Qian Cencheng herself felt uncomfortable and didn't notice it. Two days later, when her altitude sickness completely disappeared, she found that her idol's eyes were red. When she asked him about it, he said that his head had been hurting and he had severe insomnia at night.
She suddenly realized that the young man also had altitude sickness, but his was a chronic condition.
So, she tried many methods, such as applying various headache medicines to him, downloading a lot of hypnotic music for him, and asking him to listen to it before going to bed.
After all this busy work, there was some effect, but not much.
Li Xiao happily watched the little girl busying around. The energetic Cheng Cheng made people happy just by looking at him. She had been listless in the past few days and he had been worried about her for a long time.
Although his head still ached slightly, he told her every day that he felt much better, because he didn't want her to worry too much.
Fortunately, as all the luggage they sent arrived, he slept on his familiar bedding and hugged his beloved little orange rabbit, and his insomnia was relieved a lot.
The only worrying thing is that since arriving here, both of them have lost their appetite.
The first few days were fine. For the sake of novelty, Qian Cencheng collected a lot of local delicacies nearby, and the two of them could still eat quite a bit.
Once the novelty wore off, finding something to eat every day became a headache for Qian Cencheng.
For the crew's boxed lunch, two people usually take one, pick and choose, and force themselves to finish it.
What’s excessive is that Li Sheng and Gao Lei would regularly post pictures of delicious food to attack them.
Whenever Qian Cencheng saw the delicious Sichuan and Chongqing delicacies, he would drool with tears in his eyes and look at his idol with resentment.
Li Xiao was amused, angry, and a little guilty.
Later, he really couldn't bear to see her always looking pitiful, wanting to eat but not being able to, so he sent a private message to her, beating Li Sheng up and sending her emoticons.
Then he pleaded pitifully: "Ever since arriving here, Chengcheng and I have had some altitude sickness and have lost our appetite. Chengcheng can't stand looking at these delicious food photos, please leave it alone."
Li Sheng, seeing that his brother was so pitiful, magnanimously forgave him for sending him the crab roe bun photo. He and Brother Lei quickly stopped sending food photos to the four-person group.
Li Xiao: Thank you so much!
