Chapter 417: Chapter 408: Conquer or Destroy

Wei Xiao came over looking serious on the way.

Last night, before dinner, he had just reassured everyone that as long as they followed him, safety was guaranteed. Yet, this was a slap in the face.

Until he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn’t help but chuckle, "What’s going on here?"

Changning saw Jiang Lingxi as if seeing a savior, "Xixi, I’m being clung to!"

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

She felt a bit like laughing too, what to do?

"Ahem, doesn’t he want you to leave?"

"Yeah, I had just instructed Huzi to find you, and he followed right after. No matter what I said, he didn’t listen. When I ran, he just lunged and hugged my leg, sitting on the ground. I didn’t dare to kick him away."

She was really frustrated.

It’s the first time she’s encountered such a clingy guy!

Wei Xiao walked up and studied the youth on the ground, analyzing seriously, "He hasn’t had a good time these days, even daring to secretly sleep under vehicles. You treated and bandaged him, he felt your kindness, probably developed a fledgling dependency on you, so he clings to you."

"It was Xixi who found him first, if it weren’t for Xixi, I wouldn’t bother. Why doesn’t he cling to Xixi?"

Wei Xiao glanced at Jiang Lingxi standing next to him, "Is it possible, he’s afraid?"

Changning: "..."

Actually, that’s a real possibility.

Never mind lost memory, some people do develop self-protection mechanisms, sensing intuitively who to approach safely and who to keep distance from.

So, because she’s less threatening, she got clung to?

Changning’s face darkened a bit; she considers herself to be Xixi’s assistant and bodyguard!

When Jiang Lingxi spoke, it was definitive, "Since he can’t leave you, you and Huzi take him to the hospital."

"But what about the crew here..."

"I have it under control."

I’m not worried about you being in control, but about Chong Yin and Luan Feng taking the opportunity to make some moves!

But when Changning met Jiang Lingxi’s gaze, she detected the unquestionable resolve in those eyes, and ended up nodding meekly.

She feels if she doesn’t listen this time, then in the future, she wouldn’t have to listen at all.

Since she was sent back the same way, listening wasn’t necessary anymore.

"I’ll follow Xixi’s word, and if all goes well, we might return the same day."

To prevent this stranger’s sudden presence from drawing attention in the crew, Huzi followed Jiang Lingxi to fetch meals, while Changning stayed to watch over the person.

Thinking for a moment, she took out her phone, opening the video recorder.

"I wonder when you recover your memory, will you feel ashamed seeing this video, being in your twenties and still clinging to others like a child!"

Just as she finished speaking, she saw the guy look up at the camera, shamelessly making a ’peace’ sign.

His other hand still tightly hugged her leg.

After breakfast, the crew started getting busy.

Changning and Huzi took a car with the guy away from the crew without drawing attention.

If anyone noticed, they assumed the director made other arrangements.

Filming in the desert made the conditions inevitably basic, the crew set up only two tents for makeup.

One for the main cast, one for the extras.

For changing clothes, there were a few mobile tents mainly used by extras.

If there were too many people changing, they had to wait outside.

The main cast chose to change back in their own tents.

Jiang Lingxi went with the flow, got the costumes for the next scene, and changed in the RV before returning to the main cast’s makeup tent, where she immediately noticed a figure sitting on a simple folding chair, momentarily dazed.

Beiman’s costumes were largely extravagant yet wild; the higher the status, the more the person was adorned with gold, silver, and jewels.

The costume for Liao Hong In, a royal of Beiman, was designed to be as lavish as possible, sparing no expense to restore history.

Such clothes often overshadow ordinary people, dazzling the eyes before seeing the face.

But some people, in such clothes, turn even the most luxurious accessories into mere embellishments against their striking appearance and aura.

Chong Yin was undoubtedly the latter.

Compared to the real Liao Hong In, he lacked some wild defiance but carried more calmness of a superior.

As for the faces of the two, they were on par.

Good-looking as it is, every time she sees it, an annoying urge to break the deeply hidden arrogance and conceit arises.

Quite irritating!

After Jiang Lingxi sat down in a seat not too far nor too close, side-profile facing away from Chong Yin, Chong Yin subtly lifted his head, glancing over casually.

In the following month, the primary focus was on ancient battlefield scenes, with no festive attire, only battle robes.

The silver-red armor entering the tent earlier indeed pricked his eyes.

He hated overly glaring colors like silver-red, like the sun, too dazzling for him.

Jiang, Ling, Xi.

Muttering the name in his heart, Chong Yin closed his eyes again.

What he wanted.

Either conquer.

Or destroy!

The unprepared set was chaotic, Wei Xiao was shouting commands via a loudspeaker and hurriedly ran over when he heard the wilderness survival expert and security personnel arrived.

"Hello, Director Wei, I’m Xu Zhao, the captain of this security team."

Wei Xiao shook the strong-looking man’s hand, glancing at the clearly well-trained team behind him, feeling a surge of security.

If only they had arrived last night, there wouldn’t be a person, not even a mosquito, under Xiao Jiang’s RV.

Hopefully, the person they saved turns out to be good, giving him some consolation.

"This is Xu Ai and Zhou Yi, a couple team who have guided this desert adventure route before."

Wei Xiao looked over, nodding with a smile, "I know, I watched your desert crossing video. If you had better filming equipment, and more refined footage and editing, it could’ve been a movie. Very impressive!"

Their own work praised by a renowned director, Xu Ai’s healthy tanned skin blushed slightly, "You’re too kind, Director Wei!"

"Why don’t you settle in the tents first? You came early, have you had breakfast?"

"We ate on the way," Xu Zhao waved it off, "I’ll take the team around the camp, determine the security perimeter and tent spots, and quickly establish security procedures for the crew."

Their professionalism exceeded his expectations, leaving Wei Xiao thoroughly satisfied, he nodded with a smile, "Alright, feel free to take a look around and let us know if you need cooperation."

"Okay, Director Wei, go handle your business."

Xu Zhao assigned tasks to the team, ready to take Xu Ai and Zhou Yi around the camp, when he saw someone emerge from a tent ahead.

Silver-red cape, hair tied high, radiating a heroic and stunning presence.

And somewhat familiar.

Clearly a crew member actor’s outfit, he tried to recall where he had seen them in a previous drama, then saw the person pause and turn this way.

"Brother Xu, Xu Ai, Zhou Yi?"

Upon hearing the address, Xu Zhao’s mind cleared, memories flooding back from months ago, and the ancient general walking towards him overlapped with the decisive figure in the jungle, "Jiang Lingxi!"
