Chapter 42: Weak, Pitiful and Helpless, But Stupid and Gluttonous

The big explosion shocked the whole country, but in the end, only the driver suffered some minor injuries and the rest were not affected at all. This was an absolute miracle.

Before the results of the investigation came out, people's hearts were heavy and now they felt relieved. Even the paper media, which had always been holding a serious tone, couldn't help but joking with Yu Qinghuan's koi luck.

Although the influence of the print media had gradually decreased in recent years, the retired ones at home were the loyal supporters of it.

At the beginning, Yu Qinghuan's koi title was only circulated on the internet. After so much publicity in the paper media, even the old ladies dancing in the square now got acquaintance with him.

"Ah? Yu Qinghuan? I know him! He is the little koi in Orange!"

"You think mom can't keep up with the times? You're despising your mom. I know Yu Qinghuan, the boy playing in Orange! The young man is really a koi!"

"Wow, Yu Qinghuan, the handsome and lucky boy. He could definitely prosper his family! I think this young man can be my son-in-law!"

…

For a time, Yu Qinghuan gained considerable fame and became the best son-in-law candidate in the hearts of these aunts.

However, the story didn't end. Because of the big explosion, the film crew also became popular. Both the media and netizens were very concerned about the follow-up situation of them. Therefore, in recent days, there were often reporters wandering around the film set trying to find out some inside information.

"Hi, I am a reporter from Phoenix Tree Media," a reporter grabbed a staff member of Orange crew and eagerly rushed up, "Can I interview you?"

"Sure," the staff wiped the sweat from his head and nodded.

Because their props and costumes were all burned down, Zhao Rui's temper had become even more violent these days and he assigned more tasks to his subordinates. As long as they could breathe for a while, let alone being interviewed, they would like to leave for everything even if go to the TV station!

When the reporter heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened and he asked the already prepared questions, "I heard that the fire destroyed everything on your set?"

The staff nodded and sighed, "Yes, the shooting site is no longer available. We are now conducting a final count to see if there is anything else we can take away. We won't come here tomorrow."

The reporter sighed, "Are you going to start from scratch?"

Although there were no casualties, it was said that the film crew was very poor and had a hard time finishing the movie. The film crew may never expect such a thing to happen. The fire even burnt the houses to ashes, not to mention those precious and fragile films.

Well, one disaster after another. It might be difficult for the movie to be released, thought the reporter.

"Ah?" The staff was stunned. He didn't understand what the reporter said. Why did they have to do it again? Did the fire have anything to do with what they shot? The media practitioner was really strange…

What the staff didn't know was the reporter was also scolding him in heart at this time. The film crew was poor, and its staff member also had a particularly long reflex arc. There was no film left, how could they make it without starting again? The reporter was afraid that the silly child hadn't figured it out yet.

At the thought of this, the reporter gave the staff a pitying look and reminded him, "You have no film left, of course you have to shoot it again."

The staff gave him a puzzled look, "Who said we have no film?"

"What?" Now, the stunned one became the reporter.

The staff scratched his head and blurted out without thinking, "Our director is so stingy, how could he leave the films on the set!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he sensed that he shouldn't say such words. He looked around and didn't see the figure of Zhao Rui, so he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to the reporter, "Excuse me, can you pinch this off?"

"Ah, sure," the reporter replied casually and anxiously let him continue.

"Well," the staff reconsidered the wording and explained, "You know, our crew is poor and we can't even afford hotel rooms. Everyone, except the kid Wang Ruirui, including brother Yu, had to live in a shack. The shack could not be locked and was unsafe, and the director had no money to hire security guards. Every day we finished filming, we would move the machines, films and other valuables to Wang Rurui, a little girl's room and then took them to the set the next day."

He paused and smiled awkwardly, "So this fire only destroyed the props and costumes left on the set."

The reporter, "…"

The public had been worried for so long since they thought the meaningful movie was going to run aground. But it turned out their worries were unnecessary!

Stingy actually brought about extra bonus?

The originally sharp-tongued reporter suddenly had a facial paralysis, not knowing what to say for the first time. He had to find another topic, "Oh, director Zhao is really prescient. I don't know if I can meet him today. I also want to interview him."

Hearing this, the staff immediately replied, "Ah? You looking for him? Director Zhao is not here today! Our venue will expire in a week, but it will not be available from today. He went to the person in charge to refund the money."

The reporter felt he was a mute at that time.

The interview was quickly posted online, and the reporter deliberately kept the part where the staff said Zhao Rui was stingy. After watching it, the netizens almost turned over the sky with their laughter.

[LOL, my God, I should feel sympathy for the film crew of Orange, but now I just want to laugh. What is wrong with me?]

[Hahaha, it's so funny. I feel like I am growing abdominal muscles because of too much laugh! What the hell? The director cam in person asking for a refund? The film crew is so funny from director to actors!]

[I suddenly feel that director Zhao's gloomy face is not so terrible. How could it be? Am I broken…]

[This film crew should be called as koi crew… Yes, I'll pay another visit to Yu Qinghuan's Weibo.]

[Whispering: The reporter didn't choke off that section. I observe a second of silence for the staff's tragic career… Hahaha!]

Yu Qinghuan still had no idea what was going on on the Internet. He was almost bored by Zhao Qingyuan these days and didn't even want to watch his cell phone.

Zhao Qingyuan was never a person to stay idle. Knowing this had happened, he immediately used the excuse of visiting Yu Qinghuan to ask him out to play. How would Yu Qinghuan agree? Recently, the media had been keeping a close eye on him. If he and Zhao Qing yuan were photographed within the same frame again, no one knew what would happen.

However, Zhao Qingyuan was really stubborn enough. The more he being rejected, the more persistence he would have.

When Yu Qinghuan received the phone call, Zhao Qingyuan had left his agent and squatted downstairs of Yu Qinghuan's house.

"Why didn't you tell me before you came?" Yu Qinghuan rubbed his forehead with headache, "I am still outside."

"Ah?" Zhao Qing yuan felt stupid, "What should I do?"

"The apartment manager has the key. I'll let him open the door for you. Please wait for me at home for a while." After a pause, he said anxiously, "Don't run around."

"All right." Zhao Qingyuan agreed sullenly, "Hurry up, I don't want to stay here by myself. It's borning."

"I see."

At this time, Yu Qinghuan was packing for Wang Ruirui in the hotel. The filming was suspended and the staffs went home and awaited orders. But they could not leave Wang Ruirui alone in the hotel. Zhao Rui was busy with the remake of the movie and could not take care of her, but he didn't trust others on taking care of the little girl, so he entrusted this task to Yu Qinghuan.

"Come on. Let's go and live in my place." Yu Qinghuan walked into the elevator with suitcase in one hand and Wang Ruirui in the other.

"OK!" The little girl looked very happy. Her round little face was full of satisfaction, making Yu Qinghuan couldn't help rubbing her head.

Yu Qinghuan's house and the film set were in the opposite direction, and it happened to be rush hour when they left. They took more than an hour to drive less than half distance.

Fortunately, Yu Xin was careful enough and bought a big bag of food for Wang Ruirui as early as before driving. Otherwise, the little girl would be starving.

"When are we arriving at home with this snail speed?" Yu Xin said gloomily as he looked at the long line of cars ahead. "I'm really sick of traffic jams."

"Wait patiently, there's nothing we can do." Yu Qinghuan helped Wang Ruirui tear open the biscuit packaging, while saying so.

Yu Xin then heaved another long sigh. Just as he was about to say something, the phone rang. At the moment, the traffic was stagnated. Yu Xin took out the phone and looked at it. He paused immediately and turned back to Yu Qinghuan. "It's Zhao Qingyuan."

"Hmm?" Yu Qinghuan looked at his mobile phone and pressed it twice before it turned on. Only then did he find that the battery was almost dead. He looked up and said to Yu Xin, "Answer the phone call. He is waiting for me, you press hands-free."

Yu Xin answered the phone, "Hello, Mr. Zhao."

"Is Qinghuan with you?" Zhao Qingyuan said anxiously.

"Yes, just shoot. He is listening."

"Qinghuan!" Hearing this, Zhao Qingyuan suddenly increased his voice, "When are you coming back? Can you come to pick me up? I am in Chongshang Wash."

"I'm afraid it will take another half hour," Yu Qinghuan estimated the speed and asked, "What's the matter? Your car broken down?"

"Well…urgh…" Zhao Qingyuan paused for a moment, but he still stammered out the matter, "I, I went to wash the car, and then found out… I didn't drive actually."

Yu Qinghuan, "…"

He seemed to feel Yu Qinghuan's silent contempt for him, so Zhao Qingyuan immediately self-pitied "Qinghuan, I walked against the cold wind for more than half an hour! I am frozen like a dead dog, ah, maybe I will even catch a cold!"

He also did not know what he was thinking at the time. Maybe he followed the devil to the car dealership, even he himself felt a little strange.

Yu Qinghuan, "Since you can walk there by yourself, you can walk back."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingyuan became anxious, "Don't, even if you kill me, I won't be able to walk back. Moreover, I don't know when I lost my mask. I'm afraid people would recognize me on the way. I'm squatting in a corner burying my face and can't take a taxi!"

After a pause, he said with grievance, "I'm weak, pitiful and helpless!"

Yu Qinghuan said coldly, "Yes, but stupid and gluttonous."

Zhao Qingyuan, "…"

After a few seconds of silence, he finally couldn't hold it and said, "Just give me a word, will you come or not? If not, you'll just wait for collect my body tonight."

Yu Qinghuan held his forehead, "Find a warm place to stay, don't be silly standing outside, I'll be right there."

Having said that, he hung up the phone and said to Yu Xin, "Ge, change the route and go to the car wash."

"Okay…" Yu Xin's complexion was complicated. After stopping for a moment, he said to Yu Qinghuan suddenly, "Seriously, Qinghuan. Won't you really consider defriending him?"

Yu Xin was afraid Zhao Qingyuan would lower the IQ of his koi Qinghuan.

"A-hem," Yu Qinghuan coughed and said against his will, "Qingyuan is a nice guy."

At this time, Huo Qu was practicing hard to recognize the way. However, he already felt struggled walking from the security booth to the downstairs of his house.

His brain, which was as accurate as a computer, could not even remember the road as a child could do. No matter how many times he tried, he still couldn't find the road accurately.

"Qu, let's quit," Huo Rong felt distressed looking at his younger brother's blue face and grabbed him. "It's not late to practice it when the weather is warmer."

Huo Qu shook his head and firmly pushed Huo Rong's hand away.

He must learn to recognize the way. He wanted that he could find Qinghuan no matter where he was, instead of just waiting for others to take him there.

It was not a big deal. Huo Qu sipped his lips and took another step. He could learn everything for Qinghuan.

Under the bright street lamp, the shadow of Huo Qu was pulled very long, and the soft light was cast on his focused side face, which made the outline of his face more profound and handsome.

Huo Rong looked at his brother's determined side face and suddenly realized that Huo Qu was no longer the simple and self-closed boy who could only be protected by him. He had become better and had the person he wanted to protect. No matter how unwilling he was, he could not stop his brother's change.

Huo Rong sighed and remembered Yu Qinghuan's flawless and beautiful face. No matter what Huo Qu's real thoughts were or what they would be like in the future, he had decided to support them two.

After all, in this world, only Yu Qinghuan could change Huo Qu.
