The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 242 Newcomers Enter the Scene

Puss in Boots led a group of beasts into the film set, and only then did the three Pixiu finally have a chance to speak, with Tianlu being the first to speak.

"Do you know Si Bu Xiang? I saw you two chatting for a bit just now."

Lychee replied with a smile, "Yes, I know him. I was arranged to go on a blind date with him by Shi Qilin before."

The three brothers: "..."

It's something he's capable of doing.

"And what about you? What's your relationship with him?" Lychee countered.

Bixie raised his head and said, "We are brothers."

In the short time it took to say those few words, they had already entered the venue. Puss in Boots called Lychee and Tianlu to go filming, while the remaining three beasts went to the actors' preparation area.

Along the way, Zhuangzhuang hesitated several times, wanting to inquire about the situation of the First Qilin. But the most talkative blue Pixiu was gone, and the remaining two were either completely silent or expressionless, making them difficult to communicate with.

He was still agonizing over whether to ask when a figure suddenly jumped out and startled him.

"Bai Jie!" Xiao Meng ran over excitedly and pounced on him with all his might.

Bai Jie stumbled and almost fell when he was tackled, a look of surprise on his face. "Nuts? What's wrong? Why are you suddenly so excited?"

"Hehehe." Walnut chuckled awkwardly, revealing a pair of small tiger teeth. "Walnut didn't finish her homework yesterday, so she came to the film set today. Bai Jie, please help her out~"

"Uh...no wonder they're so enthusiastic. But Shota should be here too, why aren't you looking for him?"

As soon as Bai Jie finished speaking, he felt a tightness around his neck. Looking at Walnut's expression, he saw a resentful look on his face, as if he wanted to strangle him to death.

"Okay, okay, let's not look for him. Let's go now, I'll help you finish your homework!"

I haven't recovered from the psychological trauma after several months.

The two beasts playfully fought and left, leaving Zhuangzhuang dumbfounded. He had one less Pixiu to ask about, so he instinctively looked at the last one. Sensing his gaze, Bixie nodded at him and casually found a place to lie down.

Zhuangzhuang was discouraged again.

Let's ask again when we're more familiar with each other.

the other side.

At this moment, Bai Jie is restless, just like the lyrics of the song: I want to run away, but I can't.

Walnut on the left, Shota on the right. Even though she didn't go looking for him, there were only a few friends here, so the little fox still came over.

This led to an extremely awkward atmosphere!

Shota has come to terms with it after a few months, but Walnut still suffers from the torment of the Hundred-Interpretation Dream from time to time.

Most importantly... he found himself adapting, no longer resisting! This is bad news, he doesn't want this!!

And Bai Jie, caught in the middle...

How embarrassing, how guilty! I should have known better than to do that stupid thing!

Time passed quietly as Shota studied, Walnut did his homework, and he was constantly torn between inner struggles and physical discomfort.

Before they knew it, it was noon. Tianlu, who had finished filming, came over to call his brothers for lunch. Baijie, finally relieved, quickly followed him.

The other two little ones followed closely behind. Their tastes had long been spoiled by the evil spirits, and they would only go to the film crew's boxed lunches if they could eat good food. Moreover, their parents told them not to play with the white cat that distributed the boxed lunches.

……

In the sky,

After collecting the cloud dew using magic, the lychee flew back to the ground.

The film set wasn't very big; aside from the shooting area, the rest area was quite small. As soon as she landed, before she even saw Zhuangzhuang going to collect his lunchbox, she spotted the four little mythical beasts walking by, led by Tianlu.

The four beasts also noticed her. Walnut was the first to exclaim in surprise, "Hey? Is that the new Qilin elder sister?"

Lychee's favorability towards this little Mengji instantly increased by one percentage point.

Cute, sweet-talking, thumbs up.

She smiled sweetly, "Hmm, hello there, my name is Lychee."

"Yes, my name is Walnut!"

"Hello, sister. My name is Shota."

The other party stated their name, and Walnut and Shota followed suit, introducing themselves as well. The two Pixiu remained silent; they had already given their names when they met that morning and didn't need to repeat themselves.

After they had all gotten to know each other, Tianlu urged them to hurry up and eat, as he was hungry.

Before long, a group of actors gathered together and started eating noisily. The little ones ate the chicken stew with mushrooms prepared by Bixie, while Lizhi ate the dew she had picked herself. Zhuangzhuang, who had just returned, was carrying a boxed lunch.

At the same time, they also saw the four-legged creature and the rabbit slurping noodles together in the distance, sitting very close to each other, almost touching. Those with good eyesight could even see the little gesture of them wiping each other's mouths.

"Uh, umm. They're all male, right? Are they so close?" Lychee asked, her voice muffled as she took a bite of Yunlu.

"Yeah, they're not just close, they seem to be almost together, they're even living together now." Bai Jie chewed on his chopsticks as he looked at the two movie stars who were practically drawing hearts next to each other.

Lychee paused in her eating, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, her small face blank for a moment, "Eh? Eh? This, is it really that exciting?"

As they chatted, the aroma of chicken mixed with mushrooms quietly wafted through the air, spreading faster with a gentle breeze.

Zhuangzhuang sniffed, realizing for the first time that having a good sense of smell wasn't necessarily a good thing. All the beasts were eating Xikang, the Evil-Repelling Chef's skills were performing consistently well, and Lychee was drinking the Cloud Dew from Caiyun Mountain.

He glanced at the boxed lunch the crew was serving in his hand, then buried his head in his food and devoured it, turning the day's grief and anger into his appetite.

The screen turned,

Puss in Boots, who was eating at the same time, was once again approached by bamboo.

"Director, another media company wants to interview Bai Jie and his team."

"Didn't I already say we could just refuse?" Puss in Boots said helplessly, taking a bite of rice and looking up.

"But they said they'd charge more..."

"That's not necessary."

"Five times the amount."

“Uh…” Puss in Boots stopped and slowly raised his head, his expression gradually becoming serious. “It’s not that we can’t discuss it. Paying more is another matter. The main thing is that Bai Jie will have to get used to this kind of situation sooner or later.”

Zhu Zi nodded knowingly. He reported this not because he lacked experience, but quite the opposite; he was too experienced. He knew the director would definitely agree as soon as he saw the price.

"Alright, tell me about their specific prices and procedures."

Puss in Boots coughed twice to beckon Bamboo over to check the other party's sincerity. After reading it, she expressed her satisfaction and then set off to find the person she was interviewing.

The director team and the actors were not in the same area. Regardless of what they said on the surface, the real reason was to avoid being overheard when they were discussing wicked ideas.

Puss in Boots walked for a while and then saw the actors gathered together in the distance.

When she got a short distance away, she saw Walnut rubbing its paws as it approached Lychee and asked curiously, "Sister Lychee, how did you get tricked into joining the film crew?"

"Uh……"

Lychee makes you sweat profusely.

Look behind you! Look behind you before you speak!

"Haha, how can you call it a trap?" She pretended to stroke the hair on her head, her beautiful big eyes blinking wildly to send a signal to Xiao Mengji.

"It's clearly a trap. That director is wicked; if the acting isn't good, he comes up with some harmful ideas." Walnut, seemingly oblivious to the hint, grumbled indignantly.

Shota tugged at him weakly, but was immediately freed.

"Hey, fox, why are you pulling me?"

Shota didn't speak, and everyone else remained silent, looking at him as if he were a pitiful idiot.

"Cough cough."

Puss in Boots coughed twice helplessly behind him. Walnut belatedly turned around and was shocked!

"Mwah mwah mwah! Director!?"

What should I do if I secretly speak ill of someone and they overhear me? I need help urgently!

"Don't worry." Puss in Boots patted the panicked Walnut. "I'm not that petty."

"Really...really?" A glimmer of hope appeared in Walnut's eyes.

"Yes, but I think you're right. When it comes to actors who can't act well... I'll stop at nothing!"

"Mwah mwah mwah?!" Walnut trembled, and in an instant, she became even more frightened.

The beasts watched this scene in silence.

Director, are you kidding me? This person is already timid, and you're still teasing them.

……

Shortly after……

"Are we being asked to do an interview??"

After scaring the children, Puss in Boots finally remembered her business. The three brothers were all surprised when they learned of her purpose, especially Bai Jie, who found it particularly hard to accept.

"I haven't even agreed yet, how did you get involved?!"

"Interviews are common in the entertainment industry. I can't keep avoiding them. It's not appropriate to refuse them again after refusing them so many times."

"Then I don't want it either." Bai Jie still refused.

Puss in Boots realized that this approach wouldn't work, so he had no choice but to resort to persistent persuasion.

“Pipi will have to go sooner or later. If you brothers go together, it will help his career go more smoothly.”

"I don't want it,"

"You're an actor now, and you don't resist the camera, so why resist interviews?"

"I do not want."

"Don't just say no, why? I'll try to help you solve it."

"I do not want."

No matter what the other party said, he kept repeating "I don't want to," which made Puss in Boots want to force himself on him, but he had to hold back because his two brothers were still there.

Seeing that the two wouldn't be able to reach a conclusion anytime soon, Tianlu yawned and went back to Walnut's place, while Bixie stayed behind to keep watch.

Back where they had been, Tianlu had barely gotten close when he heard Walnut return to the topic they had started with.

"Hey, so how exactly did Sister Lychee get tricked into this?"

Zhuangzhuang scratched his head, about to speak, but was interrupted by Lizhi's sudden smile, "Would you like to hear our story?"

A smile played on her lips, and a strange playfulness arose within her. The director had seemed to have a lot of fun playing with the children, and she was about to do the same.
