Chapter 1552 - 1550: Thirty-Yuan Boxed Lunch
And none of this was noticed by anyone, everyone outside thought it was just acting. No one noticed anything unusual, not even Liu Tianbao. He found it strange, these Yuegang martial masters are not weak at all, with so many people fighting a novice like Lin Feng, how was Lin Feng not defeated? This is too bizarre. If Lin Feng were skilled, it should not have gone this way, since the routine was already set, how did such an accident happen?
Liu Tianbao, as a martial arts coordinator, had planned all the attack sequences, and even then, he had not discovered anything unusual. It shows to what extent Lin Feng’s acting has reached!
"Good, very good, excellent!" The director, seeing such a breathtaking performance, instantly stood up, excitedly clapping his hands. He never imagined Lin Feng’s acting could reach this level, the performance so realistic that if he didn’t know this was a movie, even he would believe this was a real fight in front of him. It’s something no other actor can achieve!
At this moment, his heart was truly excited. To think about capturing such an amazing scene, as a director, he felt an indescribable thrill. Without exaggeration, he now really wanted to rush up and cast Lin Feng as the leading man in his next film. He seemed to already see a kung fu star rising and dazzling the world...
"Bravo!"
"Fantastic!"
"This kung fu, unbeatable!"
...
Not only the director, but everyone around was excited. They were all professional actors, yet even professionals had never seen such a spectacular fight scene. Everything was so natural, terribly tragic, portraying the desolation of a swordsman deeply in people’s hearts. Without exaggeration, Lin Feng’s acting had reached a peak that no one else could replicate. They were all deeply impressive by Lin Feng’s skill.
How on earth is this guy so good at acting?
Everyone was happy, but one person had a dark look, and that was Li Yang. At this moment, he was about to go crazy. The better Lin Feng performed, the more likely Su Xiaoxi might fall for him. Things were already not good, and if Su Xiaoxi were to really end up with Lin Feng, what would he do?
Thinking of this made his face turn as cold as ice. He couldn’t stand Lin Feng stealing the limelight in front of everyone. But what puzzled him was how Liu Tianbao had arranged everything, so why was Lin Feng still perfectly fine?
He glanced at Liu Tianbao, and that look instantly made Liu Tianbao feel it. He, too, was stunned. The Yuegang martial masters frequently cooperated with him, and it was impossible for them not to follow his instructions. For such an unexpected event to occur in these circumstances was too bizarre, leaving him bewildered. He could only secretly make a helpless gesture toward Li Yang, indicating it was not that he didn’t want to help, but that he also didn’t know what had happened.
Seeing Liu Tianbao’s expression, Li Yang’s face became even darker. He knew Liu Tianbao wouldn’t go against his wishes, so the only explanation he could accept was that it was just an accident. Thinking that an accident unveiled Lin Feng’s astonishing talent made him feel sick. If he hadn’t helped and had insisted on driving Lin Feng away, there wouldn’t be so many problems now. This was definitely a case of shooting himself in the foot!
"Director, you’re flattering me," Lin Feng said with a slight smile when he heard the director and everyone else’s reaction. He turned and went back to Su Xiaoxi’s side.
"You were amazing!" Su Xiaoxi was also overjoyed when she looked at Lin Feng. She almost couldn’t hold back from rushing over to kiss him, surrounded by so many people, if it weren’t for them. Lin Feng’s performance today was truly dazzling, much better than those professional actors, practically a superstar. Having such a man was truly impressive.
At this moment, the martial masters on the ground all got up, inexplicably the pain on their bodies disappeared, and they could speak again. This left them looking at Lin Feng with puzzled and confused eyes. They knew everything that had happened was definitely because of Lin Feng, but none of them knew how Lin Feng did it, which left them completely baffled! At least now, thankfully, they didn’t have any injuries left on their bodies, otherwise, it would have been rough on them. They didn’t want to get hurt for real.
The director was even more excited at this point. The morning’s work had been over-completed, and he captured such an incredible shot of Lin Feng. He couldn’t be happier, and in an enthusiastic mood, he immediately announced, "This afternoon’s lunch allowance has been adjusted to thirty yuan per person! Hurry and rest up, we’ll continue with the hard work this afternoon!"
"Wow, thirty standards!"
"Awesome, some good food!"
"Long live the director!"
...
The surrounding actors and crew were all thrilled at this moment. Previously, their lunch allowance was just ten yuan, and now it had improved so much. This noon would definitely be a feast! Thinking of that, they couldn’t help but thank the director. There were quite a few of them, and they had never seen the director be so generous before.
After shouting, the director waved at everyone, then turned and left, while others also left one after another to find a place to rest until lunch was delivered. Using this time to take a good rest was sensible.
"Thirty standards make you this happy?" Lin Feng looked at Su Xiaoxi and asked sarcastically.
"Feng, you don’t understand. To save time, our filming crew orders lunch boxes for lunch, and sometimes even dinner. Usually, it’s at a ten-yuan standard, only mine, Li Yang’s, and the director’s are thirty yuan. Now, they suddenly get to eat what I’ve been having, of course, they would be happy!"
Hearing Lin Feng’s question, Su Xiaoxi covered her mouth and giggled, explaining to Lin Feng so he would understand what was happening. She had never eaten a ten-yuan lunch box, but she had seen it, and there wasn’t even a trace of shredded meat in it, so it was no wonder the crew was happy hearing about the food upgrade.
"So that’s how it is." A slight smile appeared on Lin Feng’s face. He didn’t really care much about these things, but it wouldn’t be bad to try the legendary filming crew lunch box. He remembered a scene from some actor’s movie where a down-and-out actor got beaten up badly by a lunch box seller for wanting to eat a lunch box...
After chatting with Su Xiaoxi for a couple of sentences, Lin Feng pulled Su Xiaoxi back to the babysitting van to rest. The van space was quite spacious, having been simply modified with a bed for Su Xiaoxi to lie on, while Lin Feng sat beside her, letting her rest her head on his lap, and they continued chatting...
In the blink of an eye, almost an hour had passed, and the long-awaited boxed meals finally arrived. As it was a last-minute change, the meal vendor owner was almost overwhelmed, but thankfully, the meals were delivered within the designated time. People around immediately gathered around while the owner started distributing the lunches.
In an instant, all the boxed meals were distributed. The owner took a list to the director for signature and then drove away. The crew erupted in joy!
"Wow! A roast chicken leg!"
"Wow, braised pork!"
"Finally, we can eat our fill!"
...
Holding their lunch boxes in hand, they were incredibly excited. This box meal was much better than the previous ones, with four meat and three vegetable dishes along with rice, packed in a large box. Even an adult man could eat to fullness with a meal like this. Now they finally understood what the director and the lead pair were eating, not that they were jealous, because after all, they were the director and the lead pair. If they could be the director and the lead pair, they could enjoy it too...
Lin Feng and Su Xiaoxi at this time returned to the babysitting van, opened a small table inside, and the two smiled at each other, opening the lids of their lunch boxes at the same time.
"Your lunch box looks nice!" Lin Feng said lightly with a smile after seeing Su Xiaoxi’s boxed meal. His was the same as most people’s, but Su Xiaoxi’s was even better. He jokingly commented to her, but seeing the meal, he felt assured. His main concern was that Su Xiaoxi couldn’t take care of herself outside, but seeing as he was eating what she usually ate, regardless of taste, such a boxed meal indeed wasn’t bad.
"It’s quite good, quite a surprise there’s a squirrel fish. How about this, let’s swap meals?" Su Xiaoxi was somewhat taken aback to see her boxed meal also upgraded today, with a noticeable squirrel fish, several pieces of braised pork, seasoned meat chunks, and a chicken wing plus several vegetables. This boxed meal was definitely lavish. Still, seeing Lin Feng, knowing he had just acted in a fight scene, she instinctively wanted him to eat it, to replenish his energy.
"You eat it. Make sure you’re full since you have scenes to do this afternoon. As for me, don’t worry, nothing is more important than your health." Lin Feng patted Su Xiaoxi’s head and said warmly, for he cared most about her, how could he eat what was meant for her. But he could feel Su Xiaoxi’s affection, which warmed his heart.
"Alright, I’ll eat it. I really am hungry." Knowing Lin Feng wouldn’t eat her lunch no matter what, Su Xiaoxi smiled and began eating right away. She indeed was hungry after the whole morning, and the aroma couldn’t resist anymore.
