Chapter 98: Dating has begun!
When Hu Ying and the others were about to go back to Hut No. 1, Wen Nuo suddenly said, "Have you already been in the car before you took the picture?"
The crowd froze at that.
"It's just the two of them in the car, there's no one in the back seat." Lin Qingning said faintly.
He'd actually found out a long time ago, he just never said anything.
"Doesn't it look like you're following?" Huo Cheng frowned.
When he was dating Di Xingchen, he was following the photo shoot.
All of them followed the camera when they were dating, right?
"Pei Xu won't let you follow me." Tuan Yihua said.
No third person, just the two of them.
Hu Ying took off her hat, smoothed her chestnut-colored hair, and said, "Then we can also not let the followers follow us."
When he had finished he went into the hut, and began to clear the table.
Wen Nuo and Lin Qingning came over and said, "Let's do it."
Hu Ying hung her head, didn't say anything, and silently cleared the table and carried the dishes to the sink to wash them.
As soon as the car leaves the Little North Pole, it hits a mountain highway.
Di Xingchen glanced at Pei Xu's navigation and asked, "Going to the county?"
Pei Xu gave a "hmm" and said, "Go to the county first."
Di Xingchen reaches over and turns the music on, and Pei Xu says, "You connect to your cell phone, and play the song you want to hear."
Di Xingchen says, "My song list hasn't been updated in a while, so I'll see if there are any good new songs."
The car belongs to the program team, and the person who drove the car before had a very mixed song list, including ballads and internet songs, so Di Xingchen cut the songs one by one, and when he came to a certain song, Pei Xu suddenly said, "This song is good, it's good to listen to when you're driving."
Di Xingchen took a look at it. It's called Sunset Boulevard.
Then he heard a male voice singing, [Always dreaming of clouds above, flying over the meridian].
He sat back then, looking out the window in the middle of the song; on the other side of the highway was the cliff, and beyond the cliff were rolling snow-capped mountains with villages, smoking, majestic and silent.
"Are the songs you usually listen to in this similar style?" He asked Pei Xu.
Pei Xu says, "I don't really listen to much music. Lately I've been listening to Liu Shuang more."
Di Xingchen just said "oh".
Pei Xu just laughed and said, "Really, I didn't mean to say that to your face."
Di Xingchen then asked, "What's your favorite of his songs, 'Desert Ballroom'?"
"Can I be honest?" Pei Xu's tone didn't sound flattering in the slightest, but instead seemed sincere, saying, "Maybe because I knew it was your favorite singer, I had a filter on, so I thought all his songs were good. I like them all."
Di Xingchen pursed his lips and smiled a little as he craned his head to look out the window, remembering the first time he'd entered the Red and Blue Lodge, where Pei Xu had sat indifferently, not even looking at him.
At that time, Pei Xu was still the King of Drag.
And look at the present.
He looked through the rearview mirror and suddenly saw the show's car.
Comes with very distinctive red and blue markings.
Pei Xu said, "I said I wouldn't let them follow, but they sneaked up anyway."
"Guest dating is important to the crew," Di Xingchen says, "so let them film it if they want to."
Pei Xu said, "I told the director's team that I had brought a handheld camera, and we were shooting on our own, and we'd all be more comfortable with one less person following us, and the director's team agreed."
After they arrived at the county, the program's car had been following in the distance, and when they got out of the car, the program's people didn't follow them.
Pei Xu, holding a handheld camera, glanced toward the program's car, and immediately a staff member ran over.
"Brother Pei," the other said with a careful smile.
"I thought we were told to shoot ourselves?" Pei Xu asked.
"Because I don't know where all of you are going to play today, the director said, in case there are places that are not convenient for you to shoot by yourselves, so let them follow, don't worry, we will try not to disturb you, you just pretend you don't see us!"
Di Xingchen smiles and says, "They're all like that, so just say yes."
The staff immediately gave Di Xingchen a look of gratitude.
They all know Pei Xu's character, so Di Xingchen's words are the most useful at this time.
Sure enough, Pei Xu heard Di Xingchen say so and said nothing more.
Heh, future wifey!
They both watch the crew run back, and Di Xingchen says, "Come on. Where's our first stop?"
Pei Xu said, "Come with me."
This side is a small place, time and only one day, to go to the city are not very realistic, the good thing is that this side of the developed tourism industry, even if it is a small county, there are a lot of moody little stores.
The first place they went to was a place called "Old Time Workshop".
This choice is conservative and safe, and falls into the category of date places that eight out of ten love affairs would choose.
The staff called Guo Bing and told them the news at the first opportunity.
"Old Time Workshop?"
"I just checked, it's a little known local workshop, mainly handmade DIY, like pottery, aroma, paper cutting, mandala painting and so on."
Guo Bing said, "It's okay, it's kind of romantic."
"It kinda fits Brother Pei's personality." A staff member said, "It's just slightly mediocre, and it feels like nine times out of ten other guests would go to a place like this if they were dating a star. We seem to have guests going to places like this every season to do pottery."
"It's actually still dangerous to go all day on a first date, it's too long," says screenwriter Liu, "but too many programs can seem over-scheduled, and it defeats the purpose of the date in the first place. This more time-consuming and romantic location is okay."
Everyone's reviews are okay.
Di Xingchen also found this location to be OK.
It was the location he had in mind.
He has seen too many romance syntheses, romance syntheses dating places are basically based on romance and mood, go to do handicrafts together, go to the amusement park together, go to a cafe to drink coffee together, go to a tavern to drink wine together, etc., these are romance syntheses regular dating places.
As soon as they both entered the store, they were greeted by a staff member.
But the other party didn't seem to have seen Red and Blue Signals and didn't recognize them.
"I did call you guys this morning." Pei Xu said.
"Mr. Pei right, welcome welcome welcome."
Pei Xu asked, "We're videotaping, can we film?"
"Can can." The other party smiled and said, "We've got a lot of internet celebrities here to do live broadcasts."
However, he felt that these two handsome men did not look like netizens who had come to do live broadcasts, although they were both very beautiful, they both looked too temperamental.
"Both of you come with me."
Di Xingchen followed the staff inside, the store was playing classic old love songs, not many people in the workshop, there is a corner, there are two couples are following the master to do pottery, there are also a few people wearing gloves, surrounded by the table to make rings, Di Xingchen probably looked at the store, you can do pottery, but also can be handmade DIY silver jewelry, as well as painting, aromatherapy, flower arrangement, and so on. I've been looking around the shop for a while.
There are many varieties.
He was curious about what Pei Xu had chosen.
The clerk took them to a wooden table by the window and handed them over to a pretty young lady.
Di Xingchen was wowed as soon as she looked at the table.
Never in my wildest dreams did I realize that what Pei Xu was going to take him to do was a very special thing over here. Bark painting.
"Is it okay?" Pei Xu asked.
Di Xingchen said, "Before I came here, my parents told me to buy some local souvenirs, and I also searched the Internet, and heard online that birch bark painting is very famous in the Little Arctic, and is an intangible cultural heritage."
Pei Xu smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
Di Xingchen looked excitedly at several bark paintings already made on the table, "Is this all made of bark?"
The young lady probably did not expect the two guests to be so handsome, her face was a little red, lowered her head and said gently, "Yes, they are all made of birch bark, our bark paintings are very suitable for souvenir collections, and its biggest feature is that it lasts a lifetime and never fades."
Those bark paintings are really too exquisite, especially one of the elk picture, seven or eight elk in different forms, lifelike.
Pei Xu puts the camera on the opposite side of the room, sits down with Di Xingchen and starts to learn how to make bark paintings from her.
Bark painting is not complicated to make, mainly with scissors, knives, tweezers and glue, but it's not easy to make a fine one.
"Let's do the simplest of small paintings. You can look at our album and see what you want to do."
"I want to do this moose." Di Xingchen said.
He felt this was more local.
He looks to Pei Xu and asks, "Which one are you going to do?"
"I'll show you when it's done." Pei Xu said.
Di Xingchen and Pei Xu went to pick bark, and when they realized that Pei Xu had picked a lot of pink bark, they asked, "Is there any pink bark left?"
The young lady replied, "Yes, birch bark we have a total of more than forty colors subdivided. Our bark paintings are all natural colors, without any fuel, the pursuit is natural, pure."
The young lady smiled and couldn't help but glance towards the two of them again.
God, both of these guys are so handsome, more handsome than the stars.
She felt that the relationship between the two of them was not ordinary either. The big handsome guy wearing all black has a high and cold temperament, and his tone and demeanor are quite serious, but he smiles every time he meets the eyes of the other one, and his voice when he talks to him is also gentle, and the bass sounds suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper.
These two can't be a couple!
"Take off your clothes." Pei Xu said.
Di Xingchen took off his down jacket, Pei Xu took it and put it on the chair next to him, then took off his own down jacket and put it together.
Di Xingchen's birch bark is brown and yellow, but Pei Xu's birch bark is more of a light pink color, and Di Xingchen can't help but keep looking at Pei Xu's hand.
Pei Xu's hands are still a little red and swollen, black scabs from yesterday's bleeding wounds, but his nails are a healthy pink and shiny.
Bark painting is easy to look at, but not easy to do, because that bark is super thin, thinner than paper, with delicate fibers, and Di Xingchen quickly focused on her elk.
Pei Xu suddenly pulled out a small box from the pocket of her down jacket. The young lady went over to take a look and realized it was a box of wilted flower petals.
Di Xingchen hears the young lady instructing Pei Xu, so she doesn't listen carefully and seriously works on her own bark painting.
About an hour later, his bark painting was ready, and he turned his head to see Pei Xu staring at him for a long time.
"Are you done?"
Pei Xu gave a "hmmm".
He then glanced towards Pei Xu's painting, and at that glance, he was stunned.
"Wow." He couldn't help but let out a gasp.
It was actually a picture of a rose.
The roses made of pink bark, the pink is a dull pink but more textured than real roses, are just exquisite.
It's also too good looking!!!
The pale pink petals, outlined and lined with different bark colors, and the slender brown and black stalks, with their square frames, are almost like a work of art.
However, the petal pattern is complex and realistic, it looks like it is not made of pure bark, as if it is mixed with something else.
"You used real flowers, didn't you?" He asked.
"Well, real flowers." Pei Xu said, "Didn't you give me a few roses when you were in Nancheng, and I brought them all back. But those flowers were all dried up, I heard that you can make dried flowers over here, so I brought one over when I came."
Di Xingchen froze for a moment, the corners of his lips rising slightly as he looked towards Pei Xu.
Pei Xu handed him the rose painting, "For you. You gave me roses, I'll give you one back."
Roses that don't fade.
Di Xingchen didn't say anything for half a day.
This is too intentional!
