The shouting was, naturally, just everyone reciting their lines.
With both the elder and younger Chi sisters present on set, how could Lin Yu possibly go for a real kiss?
It was merely a symbolic gesture—a bit of stage acting that just needed to look convincing.
Wu Chuntian's cheeks were flushed crimson as she felt Lin Yu's presence inches away from her...
In the beginning.
Back when they had that altercation at the movie theater, Wu Chuntian had simply thought Lin Yu was a guy with a loose screw.
But as they continued to interact...
Especially after Lin Yu secured the gold award on behalf of the Anime Club, her perception of him had completely turned around.
To be in such intimate contact with Lin Yu in front of so many people.
It seemed...
It wasn't actually something to be shy about.
Being able to film this assignment with this group was truly wonderful!
"Cut!"
Chi Qingshui's voice yanked Wu Chuntian's consciousness back to reality.
Wu Chuntian: "!!!"
Oh no.
She had been so immersed in the moment that she actually forgot her blocking—she was supposed to stand up and cover her mouth to "weep."
This...
Didn't this mean they would have to shoot it all over again?
However.
The result was something Wu Chuntian never expected.
Director Chi Qingshui actually said, a rare occurrence for her:
"That take is a pass. We'll just pick up from Chuntian's reaction for the next shot."
"Lin Yu, you can stand a bit further back. Leave enough space to frame Chuntian."
Lin Yu smiled without speaking: "..."
Chi Qingshui, meanwhile, directly avoided Lin Yu's gaze.
Many people on set knew that the take just now wasn't particularly good.
Given Chi Qingshui's usual high standards, she should have demanded at least one retake.
Yet this time.
She let it slide so easily?
Most people would think Chi Qingshui was just being respectful to the girl.
Only Lin Yu knew her true motivation.
The Director's orders must be obeyed, naturally.
Chi Qingshui's action was not only to protect herself.
It also pulled another soul, one teetering on the verge of collapse, back from the edge of death.
Wang Biao stood on the sidelines, laughing in disbelief:
"Hahaha, did they actually kiss just now?"
"Little Zhao, let me tell you, this whole 'forced perspective' thing? Sometimes it's just an excuse so we don't get to see them actually locking lips!"
"Who knows, maybe they even used tongue!"
Zhao Bin felt extreme agony in his heart, yet he had to maintain a smile.
Brother Biao had come all this way to help; there was no reason to give him the cold shoulder.
"Hahaha, hahaha..."
"Yeah, Brother Biao, you're right. You... you really can't tell."
While Brother Biao wasn't looking, Zhao Bin quickly wiped away a tear of envy from the corner of his eye.
...
The classroom scenes moved along rapidly.
The scene where Xia Luo burns down the classroom and his mother comes to stop him was cut entirely.
It had little to do with the campus theme anyway.
Focusing primarily on the story of their student days allowed it to stand as an independent narrative unit.
This drastically reduced the difficulty of filming, making it manageable for a student crew to pull off.
Approaching 3:00 PM.
Counselor Miao Haixin arrived at the classroom, bringing Grandma Miao along.
The group members immediately gathered around to greet Miao Haixin.
"Counselor, thank you for coming!"
"Sister Xin, you're finally here!"
"Sister Xin!"
"..."
Upon arrival, Miao Haixin quickly mingled with everyone.
Lin Yu brought over a chair and placed it near the door.
He helped Grandma Miao sit down first, saying:
"Grandma, you just sit here and rest a while. We're almost done filming, then we'll head outside to shoot."
"How is your preparation for the lines going? Is everything smooth?"
Grandma Miao looked at Lin Yu earnestly, studying him for a long time before saying:
"I remember the lines. I remember them all. I practiced several times at home."
"Hehe, I remember you, Director Little Zhang!"
That single phrase—"Director Little Zhang"—caused the gaze of every crew member to turn toward them.
Miao Haixin hurriedly held her grandmother's shoulders and said:
"Grandma, his surname is Lin, not Zhang!"
Grandma Miao looked bewildered, speaking with disbelief:
"Isn't this Little Zhang? The one who came to our house last time for a blind date with you."
Everyone present: "..."
Lin Yu: "..."
Miao Haixin waved her hands repeatedly, stopping her grandmother from saying anything more:
"You guys get back to work, get back to work, she's just old and confused!"
"Grandma, when have I ever gone on a blind date? That never happened!"
Chi Qingchi asked Lin Yu curiously:
"Little Lin, you've actually been to the Counselor's house?"
Chi Qingshui quickly spoke up for Lin Yu:
"Didn't we mention it last time? We invited the Counselor to help act, and also asked Grandma Miao to play the teacher."
Lin Yu hadn't actually mentioned the details of Grandma Miao's condition.
Miao Haixin saw everyone standing there like statues and suddenly got anxious:
"You absolutely must not delay your progress. How about we go wait outside?"
Saying this.
Miao Haixin made to take her grandmother out.
Naturally, everyone blocked her path and insisted she stay.
There was only a tiny bit of indoor filming left to complete the day's shoot.
Everyone quickly returned to their positions and started filming again.
Miao Haixin had originally intended to remind her grandmother a few times not to make noise or cause trouble.
Unexpectedly.
Grandma performed even better than she had imagined; she didn't say a single word the entire time.
She just watched everyone bustling about with a look of anticipation, occasionally revealing a happy smile.
When she chose to bring Grandma along to join the fun.
Miao Haixin had worried she might be making the wrong decision.
On one hand, she feared causing trouble for her students and adding uncontrollable factors.
On the other hand, she didn't know if her grandmother would actually like this atmosphere.
Everything was just speculation from her own perspective, without any actual proof.
Seeing the smile on her grandmother's face, Miao Haixin felt a warmth in her heart.
It was at least proof enough.
That her choice hadn't been wrong!
...
Half an hour later.
Under a large tree somewhere on campus.
A group of students moved the camera equipment and various filming tools over, setting up the new location.
The classmates serving as extras pitched in, helping out significantly.
This was because, for the campus exterior scenes—aside from the segment where Yuan Hua howls at the sky—the other scenes still required a large number of extras.
The students who had come to support couldn't leave just yet; they needed to stay a while longer.
The outdoor lighting was currently quite good, very suitable for filming a few more scenes.
Zhao Bin stood on the grass, practicing the blocking and movement Chi Qingshui had arranged.
Especially for the scene where he punches the tree—to make the effect look realistic.
Even during the rehearsal, Zhao Bin was exerting real force.
He was attempting to use his performance to get Wu Chuntian to spare him an extra glance.
As for Wu Chuntian...
Aside from looking at the script, she wasn't looking at anything else!
In front of Xia Luo, how could the eyes of "Xia Luo's wife" possibly hold anyone else?
No matter how much Zhao Bin moved himself with his own efforts, he still couldn't enter her line of sight.
"Qingshui, Lin Yu, don't you guys still need extras?"
"I just sent a message in our class group chat. All the classmates who are free are heading this way."
Miao Haixin's proactive offer to help, however, sent a shock through Chi Qingshui's heart.
The class group chat?
The students in their class who were currently idle...
Might not necessarily be the right people to have on set!

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples.
