Chapter 80: Finally! He Is Not Alone! (2)


Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“Your little kid has gone?” Seeing him come back, Zhao Rui snorted, with a cigar in his mouth.

He had a severe craving for cigarettes. The cigars were almost never off his fingers, unless Wang Ruirui was around.

Yu Qinghuan couldn’t help but persuade him, “Smoke less.”

“It’s fine. Everybody dies.” Zhao Rui then threw the butt into the trash can unconcernedly, still looking gloomy, “Hurry up! We are too slow these days.”

Yu Qinghuan sighed and then followed him to work.

Last time when Zhao Rui was digging his wallet, he dropped a picture out of it. Yu Qinghuan picked it up for him and saw a little girl in it.

About 7 or 8 years old, round face, round eyes, smiling like a little sun, very cute. He immediately guessed it should be Zhao Rui’s late little sister.

The little girl looked somewhat like Wang Ruirui, which was why Zhao Ruirui treated Wang Ruirui specially.

He saw that Zhao Rui wore a rather stiff smile at Wang Ruirui and felt sore in his heart.

In the next few days, Zhao Rui felt like he was possessed by Zhou Bapi (a landlord in Chinese fable who tries to drain his laborers. In ancient China, when the cock crows, it means it’s dawn, so the laborers have to get up to work. So Zhou Bapi would pretend to crow like a cock even earlier than the cock, so his laborers have to wake up to work ever earlier.) He wished that he could shoot 24/7. As young and energetic as Yu Qinghuan, he nearly couldn’t hold it.

In the film crew, everyone had got dark circles under their eyes caused by lack of sleep and complained a lot. However, this kind of complaint reached to its peak when hearing the sound of firecrackers set off by the villagers nearby.

They were on the outskirts of the city, next to a small village.

In villages there was no firecracker control. Only after 23th of the twelfth lunar month, be it adults or kids, people all began to set off fireworks to celebrate.

The deafening sound of firecrackers brought a strong atmosphere of the Spring Festival and the whole crew already had no heart to work. But after some people who tried to ask for a leave got told off by Zhao Rui, no one dare ask a leave then.

In the morning on lunar December 30th, they shot a scene taking advantage of the morning sun. When everyone cleared up the props and was preparing for the next scene, ZhaoRui suddenly said, “Today and tomorrow, two days off. You can go.”

Some froze there, jaws dropped, some dropped the props accidentally, and some even thought they got phonism.

On seeing that, Zhao Rui snorted, “Anyone who doesn’t want to go home could stay and keep working.”

Hardly had his voice faded away, all the crew fled helter-skelter, even fast than the rabbits, like the director would go back on his words the next second.

Zhao Rui lowered his eyes, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, then picked up his phone and made a call, voice cold and rough, “We have two days off for the Spring Festival. When are you coming to pick Wang Ruirui home?”
