In the sanctity of Buddhism, the concept of the soul has always been revered.
When Master Mingdeng mentioned this, Lady Jiâs face turned ashen with fright. âThen, Master, is there no hope for Qingwei? Can this stop her energy from dissipating?
âLady, rest assured, the second missâ luck is strong; she will not come to harm,â Master Mingdeng said calmly. âConservation of energy dictates that the dispersed energy will eventually find its way elsewhere. Once I trace where the energy has gone and resolve the root of the issue, all shall be well.â
He chanted a few Buddhist sutras and left behind some talisman papers before departing.
Over in An City.
Si Fuqing woke feeling refreshed, her entire body relaxed and invigorated.
It was only when Sang Yanching came to fetch her for the film set that she learned there had been a fierce online debate during the day.
âThis Miss Jiâs health is really too fragile,â Sang Yanching shook her head as she browsed Weibo. âTo think she vomited blood on her birthday, ruining what should have been a festive celebration.
Si Fuqingâs eyes narrowed slightly.
Ji Qingvvei had vomited blood again.
The last time Ji Qingwei did so was after the Seven Schools Joint Examination.
It seemed this method was indeed effective.
Vomiting blood like this not only brought back her luck but also earned money âa truly splendid arrangement.
Si Fuqing stroked her chin. âSister Sang, do you know why she vomited blood?â
Sang Yanching was taken aback. âWhy? Can you tell fortunes now?â
Si Fuqing replied, âBecause I made her upset.â
Sang Yanching muttered, â.. If anyone hears you joking like that, be careful the
Ji family doesnât snatch you away. Also, stop scaring Director Tang; heâs
already visiting the cardiopulmonary department.â
The film âCrossing the Demon Realmâ was set to premiere on January 20th, and with over a month to go, promotions had already begun.
The film crew had scheduled roadshows in several cities, and as the lead actress, Si Fuqing naturally couldnât miss them.
Besides discussing the roadshow schedule today, there was also the matter of the theme song.
Si Fuqing arrived at the production office and after listening to Director Tang Haiqiu and the music directorâs discussion, she said, âDirector Tang, wait for me a moment, Iâll make a couple of calls.â
Tang Haiqiu felt something amiss in her words. âWhat calls are you making?â
âJust that I have a couple of friends in An City who havenât left yet,â Si Fuqing replied nonchalantly. âIâll ask them to come and sing the theme song.â
Her calls were made so smoothly that Tang Haiqiu couldnât even intervene.
Within half an hour, Su Yang and Xie Yu arrived one after another.
Tang Haiqiu clutched his chest, struggling to breathe.
Sang Yanching was silent.
She thought to herself, had Si Fuqing forgotten what she said earlier?
Even the music director was stunned.
After ushering Su Yang and Xie Yu into the recording studio, it took a while for everyone to recover.
Tang Haiqiuâs hand trembled as he took out the medicine bottle Si Fuqing had given him and swallowed a pill.
It really worked wonders.
But if he continued to work with Si Fuqing, his heart might not take it.
Su Yang and Xie Yu, highly competent in their craft, quickly completed the recording.
Xie Yu had a flight to catch and left first.
Su Yang bent down and sat next to Si Fuqing. âBig sister, whatâs your next engagement?â
âHmm?â Si Fuqing looked up. ââThe Birth of an Employee.â The showâs producers are quite generous; they offered me twenty million as a fee.â
âAre you joining the art team?â Su Yang pondered, âI donât have much scheduled next month; I might come and watch.â
âNo,â Si Fuqing replied. âIâm not going to Heaven Earth Alliance. Iâll be at the Sijiu City First Hospital. Iâve decided to just hang back this time, as Sister Sang suggested. â
Su Yang fell silent.
The extent of Si Fuqingâs martial prowess and medical skills remained a mystery to him.
Both of these, he had experienced firsthand.
There really wasnât much to worry about in this variety show.
It was others who should be concerned. âAlright,â Su Yang nodded. âIâll come visit when I have the time.â
He put on his mask and hat and left the set.
Just a few steps away from his hotel, Su Yang paused.
A few seconds later, he continued walking.
âSu Yang!â Bai Jinxi hurried forward, her expression startled. âSu Yang, I have something urgent to discuss with you.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The photograph Lin Jihuan had posted yesterday had captured half of Su Yangâs figure.
But because the netizens already knew of Su Yangâs close friendship with Si Fuqing, and with the eighty-million watch in the mix, the discussion about Su Yang had significantly dwindled.
Bai Jinxi had run here behind LI Yanchenâs back.
âSu Yang, I really have your best interests at heart,â Bai Jinxi tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, her voice low. âIâm now with LI Yanchen. You better stay away from Sijiu City too. If he sees you, both you and I will be in danger.â
Su Yangâs expression remained indifferent; he didnât even spare her a glance as he walked past..
