Return of the Goddess

Watching Ning Xi, who was lying on the muddy waters made Chang Shi Gui recall the look of her running under the rain when he saw her again after being separated for a few years.a

Chang Shi Gui had thought over countless of times, under what kind of scenario would he ever meet Ning Xi again. Perhaps, she might have been married, or she might have yet to find the one she adores. And if that time were to come, with a face of light clouds and breeze, he would say to her, Hello, I am Chang Shi Gui. Perhaps, do you still remember the love letter I had written to you back then?

Eventually, when the moment he actually met her came to be, he saw that she ran to and fro just for the sake of one scene. Without wanting to say a word, he had only wanted to open a pair of umbrella for her, shielding her from the wind and rain.

Although she had changed drastically, when compared to herself from seven years ago, she was indeed less innocent and naive, and had lost her adorable roundness. However, he was still able to recognize her with a single glance, as if there was a voice in his heart that was telling him, that is Ning Xi, that is the one you has once loved, the young lady that you have never stopped worrying about all these years.

Even he himself did not realise the concern he had for Ning Xi all these years. Wasas it because of those ignorant feelings that he had for her when he was still a junior, or was it because she lost both of her parents that year that he was unable to feel at ease for her?

Even till this moment, as he watched Ning Xi lie on the ground with her face filled with muddy water and eyes that were much like cold stars, his heart felt as if something was viciously hacking at it, even forgetting to breathe.

At this moment, he did the one thing that he was unable to do for her in the past.

To hold an umbrella for Ning Xi.

The production team members of Three Lives of Rogue were foolishly stunned. Why had a man suddenly scuttled in front of them right as the shooting ended. Kong Yu Heng turned his head to see a blanked Xiao Yang, Xiao Yang, is this person Ning Xis friend?

Ah.Ah! Xiao Yang abruptly nodded a few times, finally being able to react and with two other staffs, rushed over with dry towels and overcoats.

Mr Chang. Xiao Yang greeted with a bow and directed a smile towards Chang Shi Gui. Thereafter, stooping over to support Ning Xi.

Chang Shi Gui extended his hand, with the thoughts of supporting Ning Xi, but when he saw that her whole body was drenched and her clothes were already sticking to her body, he could only withdraw his hand.

Mr Chang, thank you. Ning Xi took the dry towel to wipe her face and drank the mineral water that the staffs handed over to rinse her mouth. After spitting out the mud in her mouth, You came..to climb the mountain? The weather today doesnt seem to be quite suitable for such an activity.

No, not to climb the mountain. He shook his head. From the pockets of his suit, he took out a handkerchief and pointed to the back of his own ears, Theres still some there.

Thank you. Ning Xi glanced at the white cotton handkerchief in his hand, smiled and raised the towel, wiping the back of her ears.

Chang Shi Gui did not mind that she did not receive his handkerchief as he put it back into his pocket. He lifted his head and saw the gloomy sky: In such a heavy downpour today, you still had to shoot?

Sure, Ning Xi did not wear the overcoat that Xiao Yang had passed over, It is not easy to bring up the sprinkler to such a place. If the weather isnt suitable, to be able to film such a scene, it will have to burn quite a sum of money. The weather today was just right.

Chang Shi Gui looked over his head and saw the prop staffs that were braving the rain to move the equipments, Are the production funds not enough?

If we spend them thriftly, it will be enough. Ning Xi sneezed, and Xiao Yang panickedly ran to brew a cup of balangen granule for her to drink.

Sniffing the familiar smell of balangen, Ning Xi was dumbfounded and glanced at Xiao Yang. This child sure loves balangen. Every time he comes out for the shoot, he would never miss out this thing.

Ning Xi, get ready, we are going to film the next scene. Kong Yu Heng walked over in a black raincoat. She hesitantly looked at Chang Shi Gui, where have I seen this person before.

Chang Shi Gui stared at Ning Xi before glancing at the rain which was getting heavier and heavier, the corner of his lips dropped. He conscientiously walked by the side and out of the shooting area. Secretary Xu Zhou noticed him coming over and brought out a clean stool, Boss, Ive asked the staffs from the production team and they said that there isnt much scenes today. Miss Ning can knock off after a few more rain scenes.

Splattering sound was heard as the rain landed on the tent, flowing down from the canopy and dripping onto the water puddles, forming water flowers. Gazing at the bumpy and rough ground, Chang Shi Gui inhaled deeply before nodding slightly.

Xu Zhou carefully glanced at his boss before looking at Ning Xi who was standing in the rain, waiting for the shoot to start. He felt that he somewhat understood something.

Each team please get ready, in one, two and three, action!

The woman that was working hard to climb the mountain, had long had her fingernails broken with fresh blood and mud mixing together, dyeing her palms red. She turned her head back to look at the enemies who were chasing, her face unexpectedly revealing a smile. A sudden clap of thunder rang out., she lifted her head to look at the sky, dark clouds rolled in the sky and strong winds whistled like the cry of the people in distress, being powerful enough to swallow the sky.

The ground was trembling and pieces of rocks started roll down. She stood by the mountain stream, not bothered by the small rocks that landed on her body. When she saw the murderers being buried under the boulders one by one, she pushed aside the strands of hair sticking on her cheeks, showing her dirtied yet beautiful face.

Xu Zhou felt his entire body went numb. He did not know what is called acting, he had only thought that Ning Xis aura was too frightening. It was as if, the place she was looking at had foes that made her itched to drain their blood and flesh.

However, in actual fact, there was nothing there. Only an empty mountain slope.

From today onwards, he would no longer think that being an actor is easy. It requires great ability to cry, laugh and act angry at an empty space. Could this be the so-called influence and acting?!

Good, very good. Prop team get ready, and also the dragon robes.

Prop members of stones and blood bags, and even a few that were wearing the dragon robes for soldiers uniform. All these people have to play the role of the enemies who were stuck under the rocks. On the other side, Ning Xi was standing at a corner alone holding an umbrella without any movements, as if she was trying to elevate the emotions.

At the moment when the director shouted to start, Ning Xis eyes immediately changed. She took down the only silver hairpin on her hair, carefully approaching the corpses that were smashed by the huge boulders.

Right at this time, one of the bodies lying on the ground moved. He seemed to be struggling to stand up. Ning Xi suddenly rushed forward and used the silver hairpin to viciously stab into his neck.

Ning Xi blinked, awaiting for Chang Shi Gui to continue.

I decided to invest in this film, Chang Shi Gui turned to look at her, In this case, during the promotion of this film, there will be enough funds for it.

Thank you. Ning Xi stopped in her tracks and looked at the foot of the mountain, her gaze distant.

No need for thanks. As a businessman, I merely invested in a film that I believe would have returns. Chang Shi Gui returned his head, no longer looking at Ning Xi.

Ning Xi stared at his tall and straight back and lifted the corner of her lips, smiling.

After the two of them went down the mountain, Chang Shi Gui opened the car door for her: Please.

Thank you. Once Ning Xi gotten into the car, she noticed someone taking pictures from not too faraway. She creased her eyebrows but did not say anything. Right at this moment, a man with an extremely large build suddenly walked behind the person secretly taking pictures. Without knowing what the two of them had talked about, the other party gave his camera to that man.

Dont worry, the pictures would not be circulated out. Chang Shi Gui saw her paying attention to that scene, comforting her with a smile, What do you want to eat for lunch?

Since it is Mr Changs treat, I will follow his wishes. Ning Xi smiled, I believe the places that Mr Chang has arranged would not disappoint.

Chang Shi Gui laughed and without asking anymore, he quickly had his secretary and driver get into the car.

Ning Xi recognized that the driver was the one who took the camera from the man just now. She glanced at Chang Shi Gui, could it be this man is a driver and a bodyguard?

After the car started to move, Chang Shi Gui no longer spoke. She wearily leaned on the back of the chair but did not fall asleep. The car did not move for long before arriving at the dining location. Perhaps it was because she did not sleep for the whole night, the food that was prepared simply tasted delicious yet nutritious and despite being extremely drowsy, Ning Xi still had a big appetite.

On the way back after lunch, it could be due to Chang Shi Gui emitting an aura that lacked aggression, or she was too full and sleepy after the meal, Ning Xis alertness dropped. Unknowingly, she fell asleep while leaning on the car window.

Looking at Ning Xi who can sleep even by leaning on the window, Chang Shi Gui told the driver: Drive slower.

The car continued to move. Though the speed had decreased, Ning Xis head still swayed with the cars movement. Chang Shi Gui hesitantly reached out his hand, at the moment when his fingertips touched Ning Xis hair, he felt an electric shock run down his arm as he retrieved his hand.

Not going. Head directly to the office. Chang Shi Gui fished out his handkerchief to wipe off the water on his face, his tone was cold as he said.

Understood, I shall reply Young master Jiang at once.

Jiang Cheng hung up, shrugging and stretching his hands.

Haa! A few companions simultaneously let out a disappointed voice. Jiang Cheng glanced at Bai Lu who was sitting by his side without saying anything, and consolingly said: Brother Chang might be too busy with his work and had no time to come out. Lets invite him next time.

Bai Lu held up the wine and drank. She replied without turning her head: Who cares whether he is coming or not!

Seeing her in such a state, Jiang Cheng pursed his lips, not saying a single word.
