Chapter 666: Scientific Experiment
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At the beginning of April, the movie “Beauty” began to prepare for publicity. Lu Zhen took a few days off from the production team of “Under the Cherry Blossom Tree” to attend the promotional event of the movie “Beauty”.
The main leads of “Beauty” were invited to participate in an entertainment variety show, “Entertainment Weekend”. Ding Zhi asked Lu Zhen if she had time to participate.
Lu Zhen didn’t want to go at first, but when she thought about it, the other main leads had all gone. If she didn’t go, she might be said to be acting like a big shot. Considering that it was only one episode of a variety show and would end soon, Lu Zhen finally agreed.
When the variety show team heard that Lu Zhen was coming, they were very happy. They released a preview of the entire Internet a few days in advance. Lu Zhen’s fans were also very concerned about her first public appearance in the new year. They had been waiting in the live-stream before the live-stream of “Entertainment Weekend” began.
Before the live-stream began, Xu Rui, who was wearing a silver flash dress, stood beside Wu Dai backstage. The two of them looked even more familiar and tacit than when they were filming.
Xu Rui looked in a certain direction and smiled. “I didn’t expect her to agree to participate in the variety show.”
Wu Dai reminded her, “l know you don’t like her very much, but don’t make it too obvious on stage later. Before the movie is released, we’ll try our best to get along with her.”
Xu Rui tidied her hair. “Got it. I’m not a child.”
The emcee finished his speech and the music started playing. Surrounded by the dancers, the main leads of “Beauty” slowly walked onto the stage.
Xi De originally did not plan to come to this variety show live-stream. He was similar to Lu Zhen and did not like such social occasions. However, when he heard that Lu Zhen was coming, Xi De changed his words at the last minute and also participated in the variety show.
Lu Zhen knew that Xi De had specially taken time to participate in this live-stream for her. There were only four main actors in the show: her, Wu Dai, Xu Rui, and Xi De. If Xi De did not come, there would only be three people on stage. Wu Dai and Xu Rui had a good relationship. It was difficult to ensure that Lu Zhen would not be isolated.
Amidst the music, Wu Dai held Xu Rui’s hand and walked onto the stage.
Then, Xi De also walked out from the other side with Lu Zhen.
Although Lu Zhen and Wu Dai were the male and female leads in the movie, it was not a problem for the four of them to be divided into two pairs. They could not let Xu Rui and Xi De be a couple. The two of them had no emotional entanglements in the movie.
When Xu Rui saw Lu Zhen and Xi De standing together, she felt a little mocking. She really didn’t know what Xi De was thinking. Was he rushing to be an escort? Didn’t he know that Lu Zhen had a boyfriend? When the time came, he would get himself into trouble. She wondered if he would regret it.
No matter how their relationships were in private, they were still friendly and harmonious with each other on the variety stage.
The emcee asked some questions related to the movie and created a few jokes before entering the game segment. The four of them changed into loose and comfortable sportswear and prepared to play games.
After playing Truth or Dare and You Draw My Guess, the third game segment was called Big Bang of Science.
The Big Bang of Science was a permanent game for this variety show. Every episode would invite guests to experience novel and interesting scientific experiments. Not only did it have novel entertainment effects, but it could also popularize scientific knowledge to the audience.
Those involved in the scientific experiment wore special white costumes, gloves, and goggles. Under the guidance of the professional researchers, Lu Zhen and the others assigned their respective tasks and prepared to complete the experiment together.
“Lu Zhen, bring the two bottles of reagents over. Xu Rui, check the experimental equipment again.”
Wu Dai wanted to show off in front of the audience in the live-stream, so he directly snatched the command.
Lu Zhen and Xi De were not people who liked to be in the limelight and had no intention of fighting with him. Xu Rui had a good relationship with Wu Dai and was not dissatisfied, so she turned around and went to check the equipment.
There were a total of two stages in the experiment. The first stage was quite smooth. After completing the first stage, Lu Zhen ran to get the experiment reagent for the second stage.
When she took the reagent and walked back, someone beside her suddenly turned around. Originally, she would not have bumped into that person, but that person took two more steps towards her and the two of them bumped into each other.
The reagent bottle in Lu Zhen’s hand was knocked over, and the liquid inside flowed to the ground. The broken glass on the ground reflected a dazzling light.
The others were stunned.
This could almost be said to be a program accident.
Only then did Lu Zhen see clearly that the person she bumped into was Xu Rui..
