This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 33

The two of them waited like this, from morning until noon, and it looked like lunchtime was approaching, but they still hadn't waited for the other guests to arrive.

Zhu Chongguang went out twice in between, speaking to the staff for a few sentences.

When he finally came back in, he greeted Song Jixing and said, "Teacher Song, I asked! Delivery can't come here, so we can only wait for the staff to bring us food."

Song Jixing nodded, not paying it too much attention.

For actors, going hungry for a meal or two was normal. Although she had a big appetite, she had spiritual energy and could endure hunger very well.

While Song Jixing could endure hunger, Zhu Chongguang was not the type to endure it. He paced back and forth in the little cabin, occasionally touching his stomach.

Finally, the food that the program team sent arrived.

What the program team sent over were boxed meals, several clear plastic boxes stacked together and packed into a plastic bag.

"It's finally here!" Zhu Chongguang happily went to take it and carried the plastic bag over, placing it on the long bench next to Song Jixing. He took out the plastic boxes one by one from inside.

The program team had sent four boxes of rice and four dishes.

Zhu Chongguang opened the four boxes of dishes one by one: they were potato fried pork slices, fish-flavored pork strips, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and mapo tofu.

Four extremely ordinary home-cooked dishes.

As Zhu Chongguang concentrated on opening the boxes, Song Jixing sized up Zhu Chongguang.

She had been in the industry for many years and stayed at many drama crews, even the smallest grassroots drama crews had a bunch of actors with extremely high demands.

Just taking eating as an example, the actors who could play the top five male and female leads basically looked down on eating the crew's boxed meals, and would have their assistants order meals for them.

Plus the calluses on Zhu Chongguang's tiger mouths made Song Jixing feel that the Zhu Chongguang in front of her was a down-to-earth colleague.

Not bad.

Song Jixing looked at Zhu Chongguang with the gaze of a senior. Zhu Chongguang glanced at the dishes and grinned at Song Jixing, "Teacher Song, which dish do you like to eat? You pick first?"

Song Jixing looked over them, "Can I have the fish-flavored pork strips?" Song Jixing asked.

"Sure!" Zhu Chongguang immediately picked up the fish-flavored pork strips and placed them next to Song Jixing, and also placed a portion of rice.

"Teacher Song, eat up! I won't stand on ceremony with you, I can eat a lot, don't take offense!" Zhu Chongguang said, then opened two portions of rice and poured them into one box, and started wolfing down the food in front of him with gusto.

Song Jixing took a look at the one dish and one portion of rice in front of her, then looked at the three dishes and three portions of rice in front of Zhu Chongguang.

She had thought they would split evenly?

Oh well, even if she gave it all to him to eat, he might not be able to finish it all.

Better to let the young person eat more, so he wouldn't be hungry.

This meal, the two of them ate in perfect harmony.

Zhu Chongguang even took the initiative to help Song Jixing throw out the meal boxes and trash, acting very gentlemanly the whole time.

Finally, after the meal, they welcomed the third and fourth guests.

A middle-aged male and female pair who walked in hand-in-hand.

Song Jixing took a look - these two were famous actors that she could call out by name, but had never worked with before.

To modern young people, their images were perhaps somewhat unfamiliar. But to slightly older crowds, their images were already deeply ingrained.

Song Jixing was the latter - she could say that she had grown up watching their dramas. When she was in the orphanage, the teachers there would play many old dramas to pass the time.

In TV dramas from the last century, every character was extremely distinctive. Even supporting roles had their own unique personalities and bright, unforgettable features that were no less captivating than the main leads.

The two people in front of her were famous for playing supporting roles, and had acted in many classic roles. They had also co-starred in many films, and won awards at many film and TV ceremonies.

Even if their glory was in the past, at least it had once been brilliant.

Qiu Ye, famous actress.

Han Yusheng, famous actor.

Song Jixing silently recalled their works in her heart, preparing to greet these co-guests.

Zhu Chongguang went up first, walking up to the two of them and shaking their hands in turn, greeting them, "Teacher Qiu, Teacher Han, I grew up watching your TV shows!"

How could he steal her lines?

The two veteran actors were also very enthusiastic.

"Hello! Hello!"

Zhu Chongguang: "I'm called Zhu Chongguang. Since we've met, it must be fate. Teachers, may I take a photo together with you?"

Zhu Chongguang spoke without waiting for their reply, and directly took out a camera from behind him and made a peace sign with the two of them.

The two veteran actors had very good professionalism, maintaining smiles the whole time as they took photos with Zhu Chongguang.

"This is Song Jixing, Teacher Song!" Zhu Chongguang said with a big smile on his face, carefully putting away his camera into his backpack.

Song Jixing had come late, watching the lively scene, smiling politely.

The two veteran actors also reached out to shake Song Jixing's hand!

Just as the few were chatting enthusiastically, the fourth guest finally appeared.

A woman dragging a suitcase, with a beautiful appearance and fair, delicate skin.

Sang Xueqing dragged her suitcase over, smiling sweetly as she greeted everyone, "Teachers, hello! There was traffic on the way, I'm a bit late. I'm Sang Xueqing!"

Song Jixing looked over Sang Xueqing.

She recognized this person, from a rival company.

Xu Kai had told her about her, and even shown her photos.

He said she was a little flower that the rival company had recently boosted up, becoming popular due to a web drama, and that was the Sang Xueqing before her eyes.

She was a competitor of the same level, competing for resources.

That was how Xu Kai had put it, even warning her to be careful of Sang Xueqing, but Song Jixing didn't take it to heart.

Song Jixing couldn't act in sweet romantic dramas, their styles were different. Even if their styles were the same, she didn't see the other party as a competitor.

Those seeking the true path must first cultivate themselves.

Also, she was just here to work and earn money as a small fry, not an actress eagerly holding onto scripts for leading female roles in the entertainment industry, hoping to make a big splash and become a popular first-tier little flower.

Because their positions were different, Song Jixing didn't feel there was any competitive relationship between them, so she also didn't pay it any mind.

After Sang Xueqing arrived, the atmosphere in the little cabin became much more lively.

While chatting with Sang Xueqing, Qiu Ye also took a few glances at Song Jixing. Seeing no strange emotions on Song Jixing's face, she also didn't think much of it.

Some girls were naturally more quiet, some more lively, just like the girl next to her.

She had been in this industry for a long time, and seen many glamorous big stars on screen who were quiet and reserved in private. It wasn't that strange.

What Qiu Ye didn't notice was that sitting next to her, Sang Xueqing kept secretly sizing up Song Jixing, with a sparkle in her eyes.

When everyone's legs were numb from sitting in the cabin, the sixth and seventh guests finally arrived.

One was a slightly fat young man, Hu Hui. Song Jixing recognized Hu Hui, a host of a local entertainment show with considerable fame domestically.

The other was a refined-looking man in his prime, Song Xiang.

As for news of the eighth guest, they did not know for the time being. After each drawing their own card, the program team staff came to tell them.

The eighth guest had encountered some sudden circumstances and would only come tomorrow, so they had to go to the island first.

No one had any objections to going to the island first.

Only when moving luggage onto the boat was there a small problem.

There were stairs to go up onto the boat, and luggage couldn't be pushed up continuously.

Zhu Chongguang carried his own luggage, exerting all his strength as a grown man, but it didn't budge an inch.

Seeing this, Song Xiang went to help.

It still didn't budge one bit.

Han Yusheng came forward to lend a hand, but they still couldn't lift the box. He could only ask curiously, "What did you put in this box?"

Zhu Chongguang still had an honest smile on his face. "I packed some things for cooking."

After the men took turns trying, still unable to lift one of the suitcases, and were about to take things out from inside the box,

Song Jixing looked at the time and said, "Why don't I try?"

"Ah, you want to try?" Hu Hui's expression was somewhat exaggerated.

Under everyone's gaze, Song Jixing lightly and easily picked up the box and placed it onto the boat.

Zhu Chongguang was the first to start clapping. "Good!"

The others were stunned for a moment before also starting to applaud.
