Disagree? My husband has a mouth, there was no misunderstanding at all!

Chapter 248 I want to go home early; my husky misses me.

Compared to northern Beijing, Yuncheng is warmer and the air is humid.

Everyone says that winter in the South is like a magical attack, but fortunately, Zhou Qiuyun never skimps on food and lodging for the actors. Yan Zhuoyu and the others stayed in a hotel with the crew, which had everything they needed, including underfloor heating and air conditioning.

Except for the cold weather when filming, it was very comfortable the rest of the time.

The story of the movie "Fireflies in the Dark" takes place in the Hidden Mist Village.

Kirigakure is a clandestine human flesh processing plant that uses outsiders as raw materials to produce local specialty food—Meat Kirigakure cuisine.

Yan Zhuoyu plays a reporter named Lin You.

Lin You's daughter is a food blogger who was lured to Wuyin Village after receiving a submission from a fan and subsequently disappeared. After Lin You reported the incident to the police, she began cooperating with the police in a clandestine investigation and maneuvering among the villagers.

The last day of filming was rainy.

This scene depicts Lin You being drugged and locked in a cabin. Through clues left inside, she gradually pieces together the truth of the entire incident. She and the female lead, Tang Teng, escape from the cabin but are discovered by factory workers, leading to a thrilling escape in the rainy night—the climax of the film.

The props team is adjusting the position of the water truck, preparing to simulate a rainy night scene from a battle royale game.

Once everything was ready, Xiao Zhang picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted, "OK, the water truck is in position, the charcoal brazier is lit, the smoke effects are adjusted, we can start filming."

Yan Zhuoyu was tied to a chair with her hands behind her back. Lying next to her was Tang Teng, the female lead of the film. The room was decorated in a way that was basically the same as the scene in Xin Nanshan.

She took a deep breath and got into character.

When filming rain scenes outdoors in winter, it's best to get it in one take. Zhou Qiuyun understood this, so she personally checked everything to make sure it was perfect before picking up the megaphone: "Attention all departments! Actors, take your positions! Three, two, one! Action!"

Inside the pitch-black cabin, only the glowing red embers of coal were burning.

Lin You (played by Yan Zhuoyu), who was tied to a chair, raised her head, coughed a few times, and then gently kicked Tang Teng beside her with her toes.

"Tang Teng, wake up!" Lin You called out urgently.

She called out Tang Teng's name while quickly scanning her surroundings.

Tang Teng struggled to wake up, still groggy: "Huh? What happened? Weren't we just at the dumpling shop? How did we get here?"

After briefly explaining the situation to her, Lin You broke free of the ropes and rushed out of the wooden house with Tang Teng.

As soon as they escaped, they were spotted by the villagers who were waiting outside.

Lin You dragged the weak-legged Tang Teng and ran wildly into the woods. A flash of light illuminated their pale, bloodless faces.

Immediately, the water truck started up, and water mist instantly spread out, followed by a torrential downpour.

This was filmed on location, without air conditioning, and the film is set in the summer.

Yan Zhuoyu was wearing a black cotton shirt, which was soaked through in just a few seconds, clinging wetly to her body. A cold wind blew, chilling her to the bone.

She didn't care about anything else, pulling Tang Teng along as they ran forward desperately, not daring to stop for a moment. Behind them were the villagers chasing relentlessly, wielding sticks, their faces menacing, flashlights flashing as they shouted and cursed.

The rain intensified, and Yan Zhuoyu was almost suffocating from the water. Every time she opened her mouth, rainwater poured into her mouth and nose.

They escaped only when the headlights of the police escort vehicle pierced through the rain and illuminated the road ahead.

Zhou Qiuyun stared intently at the monitor screen, giving a satisfied hand gesture: "Cut! Perfect! This take is a success!"

Yan Zhuoyu had been running for a long time when she suddenly stopped. She felt both cold and hot, and couldn't help but shiver.

Qiao Xinyun rushed over, draping a bath towel over Yan Zhuoyu while saying, "My dear lady, stop praying, you look like a lucky cat. Put on some clothes quickly, don't catch a cold."

"Thank you, Sister Qiao."

Yan Zhuoyu wrapped herself in a bath towel and then put on a cotton coat. Although her clothes were still wet and clinging to her body, at least she was no longer exposed to the cold wind.

She spread her hands and looked at her assistant: "Xiao Tongzi, where is my health-preserving goji berry tea? Bring it here quickly."

Before Qiu Tong could even unscrew the lid, Zhou Qiuyun had already handed Yan Zhuoyu a cup of hot ginger tea.

"Have some ginger tea to warm yourself up. There's nothing else to do today. I'll have Xiao Zhang drive you back to the hotel to rest. Don't catch a cold."

"Thank you, Director Zhou."

Yan Zhuoyu took the ginger tea with both hands, took a sip, and found it both spicy and sweet, with what seemed to be cola in it.

She held the cup to warm her hands, and after calming down, she joked, "It's a good thing we're filming in Yuncheng. If this were up north, the water from the sprinkler truck would turn into ice crystals and hit us."

Zhou Qiuyun is also from the North. She smiled and said, "Yes, I was in a boarding school in high school. We had to fight for a spot to wash our hair. One time I got up at five in the morning to wash my hair. After washing it, I went to early morning self-study. By the time I walked from the dormitory to the classroom, my hair was frozen."

Yan Zhuoyu wholeheartedly agreed: "That's right, we can't use hair dryers at school yet. If you wash your short hair at night, it'll definitely be frizzy the next morning."

Zhou Qiuyun shrugged: "It's all in the past now. Looking back on it, it doesn't seem like such a big deal."

At this point, Zhou Qiuyun invited, "Would you like to join us for the wrap party tomorrow?"

Yan Zhuoyu shook her head: "No, Director Zhou. I want to go home early. My husky misses me."

Qiao Xinyun, who was standing next to her, fell silent when she heard her mention the husky again.

She rubbed her face, feeling a headache coming on; it was truly unbearable to look at.

What husky? It's clearly President Pei missing her. She really doesn't want to understand the little tricks between the young couple so quickly!

"Okay, let's get together again next time."

Zhou Qiuyun expressed her understanding, and then joked, "Then you'd better go home early, because huskies are really good at destroying things. Be careful not to go back and find a complete mess, thinking you've entered the wrong house."

Yan Zhuoyu finished the rest of the ginger tea in one gulp. Her stomach warmed up and the chill in her body was dispelled.

She threw the disposable cup into the trash can and shamelessly praised, "He's very well-behaved, he won't destroy the house, he just misses me a little."

Zhou Qiuyun was somewhat surprised; she had never seen a husky that didn't destroy the house.

After chatting for a few more minutes, she said goodbye to Yan Zhuoyu: "Xiao Zhang is already waiting outside. You should go back now. I hope we'll have the opportunity to work together again in the future."

Yan Zhuoyu waved her hand, expressing her anticipation for the next collaboration.
