food protection

"Miss Lu will come home with me during this time and live with me."

Because of Chaoci's words, Lu Jin was rarely in a trance during working hours.

The fact that Chaoci rescued her in the Guigong clubhouse and brought her home had already taught Lu Jin that it was unbelievable, and now that he mentioned that they all lived together recently, it was clearly a hint of cohabitation.

Ask politely, and at the same time, there is no room for rejection at all. The abyss-like calm and difficult to interpret the court speech, no matter how polite the tone is, it will bring a sense of oppression, which is an inherent aura.

She should resist, Lu Jin instinctively resisted Chaoci, but from the bottom of her heart, she didn't hate Chaoci controlling her life trajectory.

The indescribable emotions made her even enjoy the "instructions" given to her by the court.

Zhao Ci, does she want to...continue to protect me?

How long will the so-called "this period of time" be?

"Okay! Teacher Xiaojin, let's see how you look today"

The queen's stylist applied the makeup very quickly and finished the whole makeup in no time.She supported Lu Jin's shoulders, and a face with an exaggerated smile came down, almost appearing in the mirror with Lu Jin's cheek-to-cheek, smiling like a flower, "Is it suitable for you!"

Lu Jin quickly withdrew his emotions towards Chaoci, and secretly blamed himself for being easily fooled by her because he hadn't learned a lot from the pitfalls.

Lu Jin quickly adjusted his status, and chatted with the stylist about the subtle changes brought about by the matching of clothes and accessories to the overall temperament, as if he hadn't been distracted by Chaoci just now.

After the stylist listened carefully, he couldn't help laughing: "Mr. Xiao Jin is so serious today, and he is full of work, and he really doesn't let go of any little details. Speaking of which, it is true... change the earrings Smaller ones are better."

The stylist took two earrings for comparison on Lu Jin's ears, and the two looked at the mirror together and chose the smaller round platinum earrings with diamonds.

"Well, it looks much neater!" The stylist was quite satisfied with this finishing touch.

After confirming in the mirror that his state was 100% perfect, Lu Jin felt a little more at ease.

When wearing earrings, the small wound on the tip of the ear that coincides with the red mole is like an enlarged circle of the small mole, which is more eye-catching.

After Lu Jin's eyes froze a little, he quickly took the interview draft and went to the next interview room while reading it.

While Lu Jin was sitting in the room checking drafts with the host, Chu Yun and Xiao Dong came forward.

Chu Yun handed over a heat preservation poke filled with chicken soup and handed it to Lu Jin with a smile.

Lu Jin thanked her, and then went to see Xiao Dong, and saw that Xiao Dong's messy hair had obviously been taken care of, but there was still a handful of uncontrollable curls.Xiao Dong was still in a daze, with an unshaven beard, and one collar was turned over outside the jacket. It looked like he had to struggle to pull himself up from the bed. He was very weak, and even a yawn reached his mouth It was on the edge, but in the workplace, he swallowed it back abruptly.

Is Xiaodong so sleepy because he drank some alcoholic beverages yesterday?

And why would he drink those drinks so unguardedly?

Just when Xiao Dong covered his mouth and raised his head, restraining his yawn, Lu Jin saw a few red marks on his neck.

She seemed to remember the red mark, but she tried to extract a reliable basis from the details of her memory, but she couldn't.

Lu Jin held the chicken soup sent by Chu Yun in his hand, his brows twisted into twists.

That strange sense of fragmentation reappeared.

Her memory seemed to be cut off by someone abruptly, and it was cut into an unqualified film with broken chains.

After a brief exchange with the host of the media before the interview, when the camera was set up, Lu Jin conveniently put aside the undrinked chicken soup.

Chu Yun, who was sitting in the corner, saw this scene, and unnaturally turned her flat legs into a posture of crossing her legs.

After the interview, the camera was turned off, and Chu Yun immediately came over and asked Lu Jin if he was still disgusting, and if the chicken soup was boring, he asked Xiao Dong to buy a cup of coffee to refresh himself and relieve his boredom.

Before Lu Jin could answer, Chu Yun ordered Xiao Dong: "Go, go, buy a cup of coffee for Miss Jin. See how sleepy you are, and hurry up to get two cups yourself!"

Xiao Dong was indeed so sleepy that he couldn't understand it. He was yawning all over the place while Chu Yun was talking, and was disgusted by Chu Yun, so he asked him to buy it quickly.

When Xiao Dong was about to leave, Lu Jin said to him, "Go and come back quickly, Xiao Dong, I'll be waiting for you."

Lu Jin seldom talked to Xiao Dong like this, she was very busy, and usually she didn't know what Xiao Dong was doing when she came back, but this time she said something extra.

Lu Jin wanted to hint that Xiao Dong had a lot to say to him, come back quickly, and find a place where no one is around and ask him about the Guigong Clubhouse.

She gave Xiao Dong a look, and Xiao Dong said "Oh" twice, half understanding, "Okay Miss Jin, I'll be right back."

As soon as Xiao Dong left, Lu Jin felt a little pain in his lower abdomen.

Counting the days, it should be the menstrual period, no wonder I am so irritable recently.

Lu Jin has a backache and stomach ache when menstruation comes, and it's a bit uncomfortable at the moment. Fortunately, she has always prepared sanitary products by herself, and took her handbag to go to the bathroom.

"Baby, baby." Chu Yun grabbed her directly and said, "Don't rush away, why do you feel like you are avoiding me today."

"Hide from you" Lu Jin asked back, "Why should I avoid you?"

Lu Jin is usually aloof and lofty, but he is very polite to the staff around him.

But after all, he had no parents since he was a child, and suffered a lot in the process of growing up dependent on his sister. Once Lu Jin, who forced himself to be his sister's umbrella, stands up all his thorns, he will definitely pierce anyone who wants to hurt her. Bloody.

Chu Yun also heard something in Lu Jin's words, and smiled awkwardly: "I don't know that, you actors and artists are more sensitive and have a lot of thoughts. It is true that I was negligent and failed to accompany you to Gui Palace yesterday. Just get angry with me, okay, I will accompany you wherever you go in the future, okay, but the premise is that you still have to do the work, and you still have to fight for the role. The crew..."

"Miss Chu."

When Lu Jin heard that Chu Yun still wanted to pretend she didn't know anything, and wanted to force her into the crew of "Beacon Fire" again, the fire in his heart burned fiercely, and the words that interrupted her also carried Obvious anger.

Lu Jin didn't want to directly put such dirty things on the table. If it was possible to end the cooperative relationship in a less ugly way, Lu Jin still wanted to leave some dignity for both parties, and it would be best to break up peacefully.

But Chu Yun didn't seem to think so.

"Sister Chu." Lu Jin looked at her in surprise, "Do you think I will go to the set?"

Chu Yun didn't expect Lu Jin to say that, and then her eyes flickered: "What's the matter, don't you really want this role?"

"I don't want it now, it's kind of dirty."

After Lu Jin left this straightforward sentence with Chu Yun, he left without looking back.

Probably because she was so angry and angry, her lower abdomen hurt even more on the way to the bathroom, causing a layer of cold sweat to break out on her forehead.

it hurts.

She put her palms on her lower abdomen and pressed hard, trying to relieve the pain.

This bathroom is at the far end of the corridor.

Originally, the venue was cleared today because of Lu Jin's arrival, but now she is alone in the bathroom, and every slight sound echoes.

Lu Jin came out of the cubicle, clutching his still uncomfortable stomach, walked slowly to the sink, and washed his hands expressionlessly.

The warm water trickled down the back of her hand, but her movements were still.

After the Monument Award fell behind, Lu Jin kept telling himself, it's okay, I'm still young, and I still have many opportunities to fight for.Even without the blessing of awards, I will still follow my heart, work hard and live my life unambiguously, and try my best to create more and better characters.

I can, I definitely can.

but……

Lu Jin stared at the faucet without blinking his originally agile eyes.

I have been polishing the role of "Deep Sea Laboratory" for so long, exhausted all my energy and strength, and finally failed.

As we all know, as an outpost of the industry's biggest gold medal, the Monument Award is also very valuable in the industry. The Monument Award jury is all experienced film and television practitioners with rich experience. They have evaluated countless actors and films in this industry for so many years. Always accurate.

Such a professional jury recognized not me and my performance, but Yang Shuqi.

am i not good enough

Or, I'm not what I imagined at all, I'm not that talented at all...

Will I also fall into the vortex of capital in the end?

Lu Jin's thoughts were deep, and the sound of running water from the faucet covered the silent space, so she didn't realize that behind her was a woman who purposely held her breath and was quietly approaching her.

No.

Lu Jin closed his eyes tightly.

Don't doubt yourself because of such a setback.

It's not easy to get to this position, and even have an intersection with Chaoci... If Chaoci knew that I was actually a person who collapsed because of a small setback, he would look down on me.

Lu Jin took a deep breath and told himself, it's okay.

Even if he loses the Monument Award or is about to lose the Jintong Award, and loses the backing of Jingrui, it will be fine.

Lu Jin is ready to fall into the trough and prepare to climb up with all his strength.

Resolutely pulled his hand back from the faucet, and the water flow stopped immediately. Lu Jin, who had adjusted his mood, raised his head to wipe his hands, when he suddenly noticed a frightening gust of wind rising from the ground behind him.

Her heart tightened, and she instinctively wanted to look back, but before she could move, a pair of thick gray wings spread out from behind her, almost covering the entire mirror, like two heavy doors trying to lock her in !

What is this!

Lu Jin's eyes were almost completely covered by the overwhelming dust. These were the wings of some kind of giant bird!

Lu Jin's heart was quickly overwhelmed by the chill of fear, and before he could fully utter the cry of shock, his body acted before his brain, and he pushed back hard, trying to knock the person behind him away!

This movement was too sudden and violent, and it involved the knee that hadn't had an attack for a while, causing her to twist it forcefully, causing her to break out in cold sweat instantly, and her movement of trying to escape was also stopped.

The wings closed extremely quickly, almost encircling her in the blink of an eye.

Lu Jin felt a chill, it's over!

Unexpectedly, the pair of wings failed to touch half of Lu Jin's cold hair in the end, and at the moment when they were about to hug her, they were suddenly shrunk back by a red flame that suddenly appeared.

At the same time, Lu Jin turned around and suddenly looked at the woman behind him.

"Yes, it's you..."

Standing behind her was the host who interviewed her just now.

The host is a nearly 30-year-old sister. She is wearing professional attire and is very close to Lu Jin. Her face is pale, and her facial features seem to be frozen. Landing today.

The bathroom became quiet, as if nothing had happened, there were no huge wings that suddenly appeared, and the strange scene that appeared just now was like a hallucination.

Is it a hallucination?

Do not……

The back was wet with cold sweat, and Lu Jin could smell the clear and familiar burning smell in the air.

The knee that had already shown signs of recovery began to hurt sharply again, which was also the real pain caused by the recurrence of the old injury when she struggled in panic just now.

Not a hallucination.

"Sorry, Jinjin." The host seemed to slow down a little, raised the corner of his mouth, and uttered a few extremely stiff words with a dry throat, "I just wanted to say hello to you, didn't I scare you... ..."

Despite what she said, the muscles on her face were trembling uncontrollably, and sweat from unknown reasons rolled down her face, her arms were hidden behind her body awkwardly, and her whole body seemed to be floating. The shredded paper in the air reveals contradictory timidity and greed that does not match timidity in his eyes.

This face looked less and less like a living person.

Lu Jin took several steps back again and again, and walked away quickly along the sink towards the door. At the same time, he didn't dare to move his eyes away from the host, for fear that if he turned his eyes away for half a second, the host would turn into a monster. , and swallowed her into his stomach.

Lu Jin quickly escaped from the bathroom, and walked faster and faster in the corridor, feeling a chill down his spine, and couldn't help but glance back.

The woman was actually standing at the corner, with half of her face exposed, her eyes widened gloomily, and she was still looking at her, the corners of her mouth twitching. It was unclear what emotions were hidden, only a sickness that was obvious at a glance.

His chest seemed to be punched hard, and Lu Jin ran wildly regardless of the pain in his knees.

Only when the woman was left alone in the corridor did she swing her arms out behind her.

huh... huh...

The heavy gasping of pain echoed in the hallway.

Her arms had been burnt beyond recognition long ago, and she couldn't even maintain her transformed appearance. She gradually turned into a pair of burnt wings, and the scorched ashes fell off, revealing the flesh and blood that had been forced to peel off. There were also sparks of high temperature, which made her teeth tremble in pain.

Why……

The woman's eyes were still on the direction where Lu Jin left, extremely puzzled.

Why, Lu Jin has the Qingyuan Scarlet Flame Bodyguard! .

After the clearing, the fire exits on this floor will be guarded by security, and the elevator will not stop when passing by. Even if unrelated personnel pass by here accidentally, they will be persuaded to leave.

Therefore, the woman sitting on the single sofa at the end of the corridor wearing a mask and gold-rimmed glasses could easily be mistaken for a staff member on this floor.

Chaoci was still dressed in the same outfit as when he sent Lu Jin here, holding a tablet in his hand, the eyes on the mask seemed to fall on the tablet, but in fact, there was a flash of light from nowhere in the pupils, and they quickly narrowed down. Come back, calm again.

Xiao Dong took the coffee he bought for Lu Jin and walked towards Chaoci.

Probably because the heating in the building was turned on too high, Xiao Dong, who had already taken off only his short sleeves, was still sweating profusely.

Chao Ci didn't look at Xiao Dong, but frowned.

I bought iced coffee...

Drinking iced coffee during menstrual period will be uncomfortable today.

Xiao Dong didn't notice the Chao Ci in the corner, and walked past her quickly.

He was carrying the handle of the plastic bag, but he didn't notice that after passing by that strange woman, the iced coffee in the bag was heating up rapidly for no reason. .

Before reaching the lounge, he was stopped by Lu Jin on the way.

"Little Dong!" Seeing him, Lu Jin immediately chased after him, and called him in a low voice.

"What's the matter, Miss Jin, you're in a panic." Seeing that her face was pale, and her well-made look was a bit messy, Xiao Dong subconsciously looked in the direction she came from.

Lu Jin was panting, and originally wanted to tell him about the strange things that happened in the bathroom, but just as the words came to her lips, she felt a creepy feeling of being watched, so she immediately stopped talking.

as well as……

Seeing Xiao Dong's ignorant look, maybe he even forgot what happened in the Guigong clubhouse, if you tell him about the big gray wings now, will he treat her as a lunatic "Let's get out of here first." Lu Jin smoothly After bringing the coffee over, he had already run several steps, "Let's talk in the car!"

"Hey Miss Jin, let's go now." Xiao Dong wondered, "Then Miss Chu will go back by herself in a while."

Lu Jin was speeding ahead, Xiao Dong's words entered her ears but not her heart.

The shock just now made Lu Jin's heart beat too violently, almost out of instinct after the panic, Lu Jin drank a few big mouthfuls of coffee, trying to suppress his fluttering heart.

"Hey Miss Jin, drink it slowly, it's iced." Xiao Dong reminded, "I think the heating in this building is too high, and drinking some ice will refresh you and relieve your tiredness."

"Ice, isn't this hot?"

And it is just right for the entrance, the most comfortable warm taste.

Xiao Dong: "Hey, did you take the wrong one?"

Lu Jin turned half a cup of coffee around in confusion, and saw that it was indeed an iced latte written on the wall of the cup.

"Probably...the clerk made a mistake." After Lu Jin finished speaking suspiciously, he realized that it was indeed a transparent plastic cup used for iced coffee, not a hot cup.

It may be possible to make a mistake once, but the probability of making two mistakes in a row is not high.

Could it be... the clerk did not make a mistake

After noticing this strange detail, Lu Jin, who had just been frightened, felt as if he had been stung by a snake or scorpion. When he loosened his hand, the coffee cup almost fell out of his palm.

But for some reason, she wasn't really willing to throw the cup of hot coffee that had inexplicably taken care of her menstrual period on the ground, her hands tightened, and she held it again.

There have been too many strange things recently, which made Lu Jin feel suffocated by his face being covered with a wet cloth and uneasy about not being able to see the things around him clearly. From the top of his head to the tip of his toes, he was terribly cold.

Uncomfortable, she quickened her pace, endured the sharp pain in her knee, and dragged Xiao Dong downstairs quickly.

When Lu Jin and Xiao Dong got into the car, the bathroom door she had left in a hurry just now was locked. Even if someone could pry open the door lock, they would not be able to enter the invisible and intangible barrier behind the door, let alone the barrier. What kind of bloody scene is being staged here.

Chao Ci held a tablet in one hand, and pinched a woman in the other. This woman was the hostess who frightened Lu Jin just now.

Chaoci grabbed her neck with one hand, and pressed her against the wall effortlessly.

The woman's feet were forced off the ground, and her throat was almost crushed. The suffocation made her face flush, but she couldn't make any sound of begging for mercy.

Originally a good-looking human face was unable to maintain a human appearance due to the lack of demonic energy left. From time to time, it would shift and twist to form a huge beak, and thick feathers would be pulled out from under the skin of the face, and then flipped back again. .Repeatedly, the original body loomed, with scattered feathers scattered all over the ground.

"You little flat-haired bastard, did you want to force her to sign the contract just now?"

Chaoci's eyes were full of smiles, if it wasn't for the ruthlessness in her words and the strength in her hands increased a bit, there was no way to read her anger from her beautiful eyes.

The little demon was crushed by this terrifying force, completely turning into a turtledove, flapping its wings and struggling desperately.

"I know that there are quite a lot of people from your clan hiding in the human world, so please bring me a word."

A sea of ​​red flames burst out from Chaoci's back, dyed the entire space a dazzling red in the blink of an eye, and all of it was gathered into Chaoci's palm in an instant.

Even though her palms were close to the turtledove's neck, she could still see the extremely high temperature flames burning through her fingers, which quickly burned all the fur on the turtledove's neck, and even the skin and bones would melt.

The extreme pain made the turtledove finally able to scream, but no matter how hard it struggled, Chaoci's hand holding it did not show any signs of loosening.

"Lu Jin is mine." Tongues of fire sprang up from Chaoci's body, and the anger danced to the ends of her hair, burning the ear loops of her mask to ashes, and the hot wind blew up the entire mask completely by the fire, revealing Her evil and beautiful face in the firelight, "If you dare to hit her again, I will kill your family."

Even in a raging fire, the last syllable of the court speech can freeze the bones of the turtledove to pieces.

"roll."

Chaoci waved his arm and threw the turtledove out of the window.

After the turtledove sank suddenly in the air, it spread its wings and danced frantically, propped itself up, and disappeared without a trace almost instantly.

Chao Ci watched the turtledove turn into a small black speck and melted into the thick leaden gray clouds in winter, and took a breath. After exhaling a few bits of fire from her lips, they quickly dissipated in the cold air. in the wind.

She put her palm on her heart, and her consciousness was a little shaken.

It seems that although the effect of Heart-biting Gu is outstanding, it still has some side effects...

The author has something to say: Chao Ci: Please die for those who have ulterior motives today (〃▽〃)
