In addition to the delicious egg burnt near the film and television city, there are also many night snack roadside stalls. There are no high-end restaurants. Even the one arranged by the crew for Zhou Chenxi is said to be the best hotel in City Z. The restaurant inside is also delicious. Just so so.
Everyone goes to the crew every day, and they don't pay much attention to the three meals. If you have a box of lunch, you can eat it. You can live without a box of lunch. You can lose weight. In the big deal, you will have a supper after filming.
As a result, the night snack stalls near the film and television city are in prosperous business, and even many star shops have emerged.
Star shops are businesses that use celebrities as gimmicks. When an actor comes to eat, the boss will take a photo with them and hang the photo on the wall of the store to show that "our store is very popular."
In the past, Zhou Chenxi had been curious to patronize many night snack shops in the studio. Of course, no one would take a photo with him.
He thinks that many shops can only be regarded as so-so, only the crayfish shop in a deep alley behind the movie studio made him unforgettable.
Take Lu Ji Qiguai Baguai, Zhou Chenxi took Lu Ji to eat crayfish.
As he walked in front, he said to Lu Ji: "I used to eat almost whenever I had time. It was so delicious. The money I earned every day was dedicated to the crayfish."
"..." No wonder he couldn't save money.
Lu Ji didn't speak, but listened quietly, and followed him.
Zhou Chenxi said again: "Think about it now, Crayfish is really a good friend of mine. But it's all my life, I don't know if that stall is still there!"
Turning a corner in the alley, the light in the alley suddenly became brighter. A simple stall set up a pergola on the corner of the street, and a few tables were randomly placed beside it.
The smell of crayfish was in the air.
There are a total of four tables and two or three diners. The boss is not busy. He brought a pot of crayfish just out of the pot to the guests. The boss looked back and saw Zhou Chenxi, and immediately smiled and said, "Chenxi, come here. ?"
Zhou Chenxi felt a bit hot in his eyes, but he didn't expect the boss to remember him.
"Sit down," the boss greeted them, "I heard that you took the new play of Director Luo a few days ago. Congratulations, and I wonder if you will come to me. It's cold, and the crayfish will not be eaten later. Huh!"
Zhou Chenxi called Lu Ji to sit with him and chatted with the boss.
Lu Ji looked around. The place was not large. Although the small stall was on the side of the road, it was not directly facing the road and there was no dust. The tables, chairs, and tableware were cleaned very cleanly.
Zhou Chenxi said boldly, "Boss, first, two catties of thirteen incense, two catties of garlic and braised in sauce."
The boss smiled and said, "I won't be filming for a while, and still eat garlic?"
Zhou Chenxi said: "I'm finished today! Bring my friends to try your craft."
The boss said: "You are satisfied." Then he went busy.
While the boss was not paying attention, Zhou Chenxi secretly said to Lu Ji: "The garlic is delicious, it is more delicious than thirteen, you must try it."
He is like a salesman, Lu Ji just smiled and nodded.
Lu Ji has lived in this kind of city corner in the future. He has lived in high-rise buildings for several lifetimes. Lu's office and the Lu house that grew up are like a delicate cage. Only tonight can he deeply feel the fireworks of this world. gas.
The crayfish brought the crayfish, and Zhou Chenxi said a few words with the boss.
He is like a wonderful social flower that complements Lu Ji. In places where Lu Ji is not good at talking, he can always chatter. In formal occasions, such as in front of certain stages and in front of some strangers, he is particularly shy.
The boss had a foreboding that he was going to fire, and asked him to sign for himself, saying that he would also hang on the wall. The book "Zhou Chenxi is a regular customer of this store", Zhou Chenxi said that was not good, and the boss had to give him a discount if he used his name. You must give him a 50% discount every time you come.
The boss disagreed and turned away.
Zhou Chenxi smiled and began to put on gloves to peel the crayfish.
"The crayfish here is actually famous. It’s that the movie studio is too far here and it’s inconvenient. The interval between filming is short and you can’t come here. Unless everyone comes to eat after the movie, most of the protagonists are busy. Sometimes After tossing until two or three in the morning, I just want to go back to sleep, so I usually send an assistant to buy it during the filming."
Zhou Chenxi checked the time on the phone and said, "Hey, it's still early. When the supper time comes, there will be more people in line here."
Lu Ji slowly accompanied Zhou Chenxi to peel the shrimp, and observed by the way, there were really many assistant-like people rushing over to find the boss to pack the supper. They bought dozens of boxes and placed large orders. The boss has a nephew who has been sitting in the corner playing games. When he saw the boss was too busy, he put down his phone and went to help.
On the contrary, there are not many people sitting here eating, so the surroundings are fairly quiet.
Lu Ji hadn't eaten crayfish before, and after watching Zhou Chenxi for a long time, he finally knew how to peel it.
Crayfish is the food of the rivers and lakes, of course it will not land on the table.
Zhou Chenxi was very sophisticated, like a ruthless shrimp peeling machine, and soon the sauce plate in front of him was piled with red and white crayfish meat.
Zhou Chenxi's gloved hands were so greasy that he brought the shrimp that hadn't eaten a bite and put it in front of Lu Ji: "Eat it while it's hot! The dipping sauce here is also a must, so it’s the best. Use chopsticks ."
Zhou Chenxi handed him the chopsticks, motioned him to eat slowly, and then began to peel the shrimp.
Lu Ji worried that he would be so busy: "You eat too."
"Okay," Zhou Chenxi showed Xiao Liwu and reminded him, "I pay the bill today, you can't grab it with me anymore!"
Lu Ji nodded: "Yes."
Only then was Zhou Chenxi satisfied and started to eat shrimp.
Lu Ji eats very reservedly, as if what was placed in front of him was not crayfish, but some kind of high-end ingredients. He ate the roadside supper like a star restaurant.
After a full meal, it was still early, Zhou Chenxi bid farewell to the boss and came out and walked on the road with Lu Ji.
"Now we have the same taste in our mouths." Zhou Chenxi breathed a sigh and said with a mischievous smile.
Lu Ji's hand in his pocket stretched out, magically conjured two sticks of chewing gum.
Zhou Chenxi was shocked: "Are you wondering about the prophet?"
Lu Ji said: "Lu's new flavor will be launched this month."
Ok.
Zhou Chenxi took it and praised him: "You are really a business genius. I have never seen a boss like you who can bring goods physically. Let me taste it. If it is delicious, I can speak for you on Weibo for free."
He is now an internet celebrity with millions of followers.
Zhou Chenxi peeled the chewing gum shamelessly and tasted it. The strawberry flavor: "..." It seems that Lu Ji really likes the strawberry flavor.
It was just after nine o'clock in the evening when I came out of the alley.
Recently, the film and television city has launched a new tourist activity. The large-scale evening show will be separated at 8:45. It is now when the tourists are rushing to watch the performance. In order to cooperate with the performance, the film and television city will also be open until 11 pm
In addition to performances, there are many places to play in the film and television city. For example, the newly opened haunted house is said to be quite exciting. Except for the performance theater, there should be no people in other places. It is a good time to go to the haunted house, Zhou Chenxi asked If Lu Ji wants to go or not, Lu Ji can say it.
So the two returned to the studio to buy tickets for the haunted house.
In fact, Zhou Chenxi wanted to return to the hotel and had nothing to do. Lu Ji might have other things to be busy then. He finally came here. Zhou Chenxi wanted to stay with him a little longer.
Unexpectedly, there were quite a lot of people in line at the gate of the haunted house. Two tall men, Zhou Chenxi and Lu Ji, slammed toward the end of the line, especially eye-catching.
The first two girls noticed that they were behind, and when they turned around, they recognized Zhou Chenxi next to them at first glance: "Hey, Zhou Chenxi! Are you here to play in the haunted house?"
Zhou Chenxi scratched his face embarrassedly: "Yes."
"You are so handsome!" the girl said, "may I ask you for an autograph?"
She said that she took out a notebook from her backpack, and Zhou Chenxi patiently signed it.
A girl next to her also asked Zhou Chenxi for one, and when she handed out the book, she suddenly saw Lu Ji next to Zhou Chenxi.
"Yeah!" the girl yelled and pulled the sister next to her.
When Zhou Chenxi signed the autograph, the two people got together and didn’t know what was said. When Zhou Chenxi handed the two notebooks back together, one girl blushed and said to them, "Thank you, Zhou Chen. Xi, you and Mr. Lu must be happy!"
Zhou Chenxi: "?" It doesn't sound like a serious blessing.
The two girls made a cheering gesture, and Lu Ji suddenly smiled and said, "Thank you."
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
Zhou Chenxi didn't know, so he whispered, "Mr. Lu, please don't shed your charm at will!"
Lu Ji glanced at him: "Are you jealous?"
Zhou Chenxi widened beautiful round eyes and shook his head, "What jealous am I!"
Zhou Chenxi had a big heart, and did not delve into what the blessings of the two girls meant.
After finally moving the team to the front row, Zhou Chenxi realized that all but the two girls were lovers.
Two young men and women who looked like college students came from behind. The girl had been holding the boy's arm and said in fear, "Honey, let's not go!"
A couple next to him just came out of it, and the boy among them had a lingering fear: "Almost scared me to throw up."
The girl said dissatisfiedly next to him: "You are too unpromising!"
Saying that, the girl's face is not so good.
Another couple in the front row said: "Husband, the brochure says this is the scariest haunted house in the country, I'm a little scared..."
The boy comforted her: "Don't be afraid, grab me when you go in, and I will protect you!"
Zhou Chenxi was originally enthusiastic, but he became a little nervous when he heard this, he quietly glanced at Lu Ji.
Lu Ji bowed his head, received his eyes, and said, "Don't be afraid, take me when you go in, and I will protect you."
Zhou Chenxi: "..."
"Puff--" The girl in front didn't know why she choked on drinking water suddenly, and started to cough quietly.
Suddenly, it seemed that the atmosphere was not so heavy. Zhou Chenxi and Lu Ji handed the tickets in their hands to the ticket inspector at the door, and walked in together after checking the tickets.
The haunted houses are entered in batches, one group at a time. There are two couples in front of Zhou Chenxi and Lu Ji, two girls, and a couple behind.
As soon as I entered, the door was sprayed with dry ice twice.
Zhou Chenxi was used to seeing this kind of thing. They used this for special effects on stage, so there was no reaction. The two girls in front were frightened. The chilly mist was falling on them, and the girl screamed.
The two couples who went inside did not know what they saw, and screamed.
Suddenly the door behind closed, the light dimmed.
Zhou Chenxi quietly posted next to Lu Ji.
"Don't be afraid." Lu Ji whispered.
The girl and the couple in front were scattered, and there were two forks after entering the door. Because they didn't know what was scared, they rushed forward quickly and disappeared in the haunted house in an instant.
Zhou Chenxi became more nervous, sweating on the palms of her hands.
With a warm palm, Lu Ji took his hand.
The scorching heat spread from his hands, Zhou Chenxi relaxed a lot, and slowly straightened his back.
"Don't let go," Lu Ji reminded, "so as not to get separated."
Zhou Chenxi nodded, realizing that he couldn't see, and then let out another "um".
The boy in the couple behind asked them: "Have you two been here?"
"No," Zhou Chenxi replied, "I have read the brochure and said that this haunted house has a theme similar to ‘Chain Saw’, and that there is a pervert in the hospital who likes to steal bodies..."
"Don't say it!" The boy covered his ears and shivered with his girlfriend.
Lu Ji: "..."
This guy has to be scared, and deliberately scare others.
Zhou Chenxi closed his mouth.
Moving forward, fortunately, I didn't encounter anything particularly scary. They were all dolls, sculptures, and some bluffing electric machines.
It is said that there will be staff members who will play the role of "ghosts". Outside the haunted house, it is written to care for and take care of the staff, and do not beat them.
Zhou Chenxi is more afraid of this, afraid that they can't help but use a set of Tai Chi when they scare themselves.
A nerve was strained until it reached a fork in the road.
There was a dim red light on one road, and a dark one, with strange music playing inside.
The boy behind said: "Where are you going?"
Zhou Chenxi was also very entangled.
Lu Ji said, "Where are you going?"
"Walk, walk with light, it is more secure."
"Maybe it's scary where there is light." Zhou Chenxi said suddenly.
The couple: "..."
Lu Ji said, "Then let's go separately."
The couple thought about it.
"Honey," the girl said, "Let's go out quickly, I'm really scared."
The boy said: "Then go where there is light, maybe you can go out soon."
In fact, the distance from each side of the road to the exit was the same, so the four broke up, the couple walked towards the bright place, and Zhou Chenxi and Lu Ji walked towards the dark place.
Zhou Chenxi said as he walked: "It's better to think backwards at this time. You have to be bold and careful when you enter the haunted house."
"Yeah." Lu Ji looked a little funny when he was afraid of sweating his palms.
Sure enough, not long after they entered, they heard the screams of the couple coming from next door.
Zhou Chenxi had lingering fears: "Look, fortunately fortunately!"
As soon as his voice fell, the light above his head suddenly turned on with a "pop".
Zhou Chenxi: "..."
It was okay when there was no light. As soon as the lights were turned on, Zhou Chenxi found himself and Lu Ji standing in a ward-like scene, with red paint on the wall saying "Help!!!".
The three exclamation points at the back were very spiritual and shocking, and they also made the paint flow down. Suddenly the lights dimmed again, and there was a "hehehe" laugh outside the room.
It's the staff member: "Let me see, who is inside..."
He deliberately lowered his voice, which sounded terrifying in this environment. Zhou Chenxi raised his voice: "Don't pretend to be a ghost or a ghost..."
Lu Ji covered his mouth: "Don't bring people in, there is a door over there, let's go out."
Zhou Chenxi nodded and was dragged out of the ward by Lu Ji. The staff behind "hehehe" smiled and chased up. Zhou Chenxi was terrified by him and rubbed the goose bumps on his arm, thinking : How did he avoid being beaten?
Lu Ji was tall and long, and led Zhou Chenxi away. He thought he would be able to get out soon, but he didn't expect that there would be another side road ahead.
Now it was difficult to make a choice. The staff behind strode to catch up. Lu Ji hesitated, planning to get rid of him first, pulling Zhou Chenxi into the small alley next to him.
This place can just squeeze two people, behind it is a fire hydrant disguised as trees and vines.
"Hush—" Lu Ji motioned to him not to say anything.
"Can you get rid of him like this?" Zhou Chenxi couldn't help but ask him in a low voice.
Lu Ji had to cover his mouth that couldn't be idle again.
The two were close together and could hear each other's breathing.
Zhou Chenxi stopped talking, and Lu Ji put down his hands, and the staff walked away while grinning, but they didn't find them.
Zhou Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief and hid in Lu Ji's arms.
This place is actually a bit reluctant for the two people at Shushu Station, and they must be close together.
Zhou Chenxi smelled the good smell on Lu Ji's clothes, as well as the smell of strawberry and garlic crayfish in each other's breath.
that's nice.
Zhou Chenxi thought.
Because I ate the same thing together, I don't despise you, nor do you despise me.
The author has something to say: garlic fragrant, Mr. Lu.
