Once the scene was successfully filmed, Director Zhou called out and led everyone out, not forgetting to assist the others with the door. Naturally, after shooting this kind of scene, it is necessary to clear the set again. To make sure that Lu Bai doesnât feel embarrassed after his first time doing this kind of scene â after all, after the first time, a personâs heart will feel more comfortable, so they can smoothly perform subsequent intimate scenes later, no?
Lu Bai was still lying on the hard bed and didnât try to get up. Curling his toes, his legs felt cold. Qu Xueyu put on his shirt and leaned over to stroke the teenagerâs slightly wet bangs, fearing that the other would catch a cold he then used the thick and soft blanket on the other to cover the other tightly. Although they didnât actually do it, they had to stick to the directorâs requirements, which made it quite a bit easier to perform. They also fell into the scene, and it was quite heartbreaking to capture it.
âAre you okay?â Qu Xueyu gently touched the tip of the teenagerâs nose.
Lu Bai half sat up and hugged his partnerâs waist, burying his face in the otherâs bosom, sniffling and saying, âItâs a bit hard to endure.â

Qu Xueyu gently patted the teenagerâs back like a child, smiling helplessly and dotingly, âWhat?â
Lu Bai acted spoiled and then cuddled up to the other more closely, âI know itâs a movie, and itâs all made up. Xiao Qu is not Xiao Qu and Iâm not me either, but itâs just hard for me not to be upset.â After a pause, Lu Bai tilted his head and looked straight into the eyes of Qu Xueyu: âXiao Qu, if you kiss me, Iâll definitely not be sad anymore.â
Qu Xueyu quietly regarded the teenager looking into his eyes, full of dependence. His heart softened into a puddle, he smiled and leaned over, catching the teenagerâs soft lips, tenderly and languidly kissing him.
After the kiss, Lu Baiâs pale face finally improved a bit, a smile emerged on his face, and his eyes arched into crescent moons: âXiao Qu, you are my precious treasure, I canât live without you.â

Qu Xueyu raised an eyebrow: âHmm, a baby, itâs acceptable.â1ĺŽč´ bÇo bèi â treasured object, treasure, darling, baby = small play on words. I believe I already made a footnote about this when they confronted QXYâs mother a few chapters ago. But felt like I should include again as it helps make QXYâs response make more sense. After all, he had even been his canary. After a moment, he fetched Lu Baiâs clothes and brought them over to Lu Baiâs side, while he himself got off the bed.
Lu Bai subconsciously reached out and grabbed the otherâs sleeve. Qu Xueyu turned back and gently rubbed the teenagerâs tresses, saying, âBe good. Get dressed first, while I go find you some hot water.â His voice was a bit hoarse, and it was already getting cold, so it was better for him to drink some hot water. However, he was actually quite shy outside, and it was really not appropriate to let an assistant in under these circumstances.
Lu Bai was slightly mollified, so he let go of his sleeve, and Qu Xueyu headed outside.
The lights in the cabin were dim, and as Lu Bai continued to look at the young manâs elegant back in the darkness, he somehow felt a sense of unease in his heart that he could not explainâŚ
Lu Bai frowned as he looked at the youthâs back out of reach⌠For a moment, he felt that his back was distorted and illusory in the light, and almost subconsciously, he reached out his hand towards the other, and the words that came out of his mouth were tinged with inexplicable panic: âXiao Qu-!â

Qu Xueyuâs steps lurched, and he turned around again, a helpless but doting smile on his face as he caught hold of the young manâs hand that had been extended towards him, âWhat?â
Lu Bai returned his firm grip on the youthâs well-defined hand and felt dazed â it was hot, so warm and realâŚ
Lu Bai blankly stared, then blinked and smiled, letting go of the young manâs hand: âItâs nothing. Just, just reluctant about being away from you.â Perhaps he was overthinking it.
Qu Xueyu laughed and arched his eyebrow, he stretched out a finger and gently tapped the teenagerâs head, âIâll be back as soon as I find some hot water, so you can drink some to warm up and weâll go back to the tent.â The teenager had sweat on his body and it was too cold outside, it would be unpleasant if he got sick.
Lu Bai nodded obediently while wearing the blanket, âOh.â
Qu Xueyu then once again turned and walked away.
Lu Bai intently and dependently watched the otherâs back.

Suddenly, the ground seemed to shift slightly, and the bed and table in the wooden house let out an inconspicuous soft squeak as if it were a hallucination.
Lu Baiâs eyes widened, and for some strange reason, an inexplicable foreboding flooded his mind, and the words on that paper airplane suddenly flashed in his mind
âYou love Ruan Jiangjiu, right? Then, please, save him.â2End of Chapter 38
The paper airplane that seemed like a curse found in the maple forest â the maple leaves that were as bright red as bloodâŚ
Lu Baiâs body trembled violently â bloodâŚ
His eyes dilated, and almost instinctively, he got out of bed and stumbled towards the youthâs back â he was close, after all, this room was so small⌠he would be able to touch his Xiao QuâŚ
The ground shook violently, and the shouts of the staff outside the house of âEarthquake! â and the shouts of Mr. Bo Yangzhi and Director Zhou as they called their names sounded unrealâŚ
Lu Bai couldnât hear a thing. In his eyes and heart, there was only the young man who seemed to be so close to him and yet too far away to be caughtâŚ
This wooden hut was specially built for filming, and there was only one support beam for the roof, which was right above Qu Xueyuâs head. When the ground started to tremble, the deadly beam shifted and fell down!
âXiao Qu!â
Lu Bai lunged at the other party with all the strength he could muster.
He stretched out his hand towards him, and the moment he grasped the otherâs wrist a transparent resistance seemed to rise out of nowhere in the airâŚ
No, itâs too late, heâs not allowed to be too late!
Lu Baiâs eyes were as red as a monsterâs, bits of the broken beam and collapsing roof pelted his body and cut blood marks on his neck, but he didnât seem to be aware of it, he just gritted his teeth and fiercely stretched out his hand towards the other party!
Before the roof beam came crashing down, he was able to grip the young manâs wrist and pull him to his side by using all his efforts in spite of the youthâs shaken state of mind.
The roof beam fell with a loud bang, and without any support the entire wooden house collapsed, Qu Xueyu almost instinctively shielded the youth in his arms.
Broken boards and sharp shards fell one after another, burying the two people who were hugging each other tightly underneath.
Lu Bai was light-headed, warm blood dripping over his eyes, his brain frantically flooding with new memories. After a hectic moment, he had managed to grab hold of the young man firmly, and a light smile appeared on his pale, blood-stained face. This time, he finally succeeded in his goal of making amendsâŚ
