Yangzhou truly lives up to its reputation as a famous snack street, with a dazzling array of delicacies that whet the appetite.
"Jingru, let's eat first," Xia Lin said, pulling Liu Jingru and Qin Wen towards the eateries.
Even though they were now cultivators who had gone through tribulation, effectively becoming immortals,
their foodie hearts remained unquenched.
Regardless of location, time, or age, foodies are always foodies.
It was like that with Lao Tian Gou; they were already gods, yet their foodie nature was even more pronounced than Xia Lin and the others.
"Chen Li, you go join Xia Lin and the others. Don't be reserved; we're all friends," the National Little King said to Chen Li, who looked eager but hadn't followed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Li glanced at Yu Wei, who nodded, "Go ahead."
"Alright, you guys explore on your own," Chen Li said, then hurried off in the direction of Xia Lin and the others.
After Chen Li left, the National Little King and the others began to tease Yu Wei.
"Fatty Yu, will you succeed again tonight? Haha..." Qin Dou said, finding himself amused.
"I'm sure I will tonight. I lay in bed for a while afterward, and she didn't say anything when I held her while sleeping," Yu Wei recalled what happened in the room earlier, a smile gracing his lips.
"Idiot," the National Little King cursed, then added, "She's willing to share a room with you, so she's thought it through. She knows you're pretending to be oblivious here, and you're satisfied just by sleeping next to her? How useless are you?"
"Exactly," Qin Dou agreed.
"Say whatever you want. I'm not in a hurry. I think tonight is a sure thing," Yu Wei had long accepted his uselessness, and as things became clearer, he began to feel smug.
He could already picture them accelerating on that large bed tonight.
"Let's not talk about it. We'll wait for your good news. We're also going to grab something to eat. Yangzhou snacks are quite good," the National Little King began searching for eateries.
"Nonsense, if Yangzhou fried rice is this famous, then other delicacies must be delicious too," Qin Dou said, following along.
After entering the city, everyone separated, each exploring their own interests and eating their own preferences.
After all, when it comes to snacks, everyone has different demands.
Yangzhou's Dongguan Street genuinely preserved its ancient architecture. Although many houses were rebuilt later, it didn't diminish its status as an ancient street.
Consequently, it was often a filming location for various crews.
Especially for historical dramas, Yangzhou was a significant filming site.
The originally not-so-wide street was temporarily closed due to filming.
This was tacitly approved by the local authorities, as such filming would also bring fame and attract tourists to the area.
"Which big star is filming here? Such a grand setup," Ma Yuqin said, looking at the crowd being suddenly blocked from the street.
While it didn't significantly impact their stroll, many who traveled from afar to sightsee were disappointed when half the area was suddenly off-limits.
If one thought about it from their perspective, it was understandable. They were afraid of encountering someone who acted like a diva, truly believing they were adored by everyone.
As Xia Lin and the other girls moved on from their spot, they saw several men in security uniforms pushing away a woman.
"My mother and child are inside. What do you mean by blocking me from entering?" the woman asked, her voice filled with anger.
"Don't worry, if your mother and child are indeed inside, they will be brought out soon. So, just wait here. Who knows, you might be trying to sneak in for photos or autographs." One of the security guards, accustomed to such situations, gave her a look that suggested he thought she was a fan trying to cause trouble.
"Who the hell wants photos or autographs? I just want to go in and find my family right now," the woman's voice grew louder.
One could understand her current emotions.
She just wanted to find her family and had no idea about any celebrities.
It was truly baffling why people were so obsessed with celebrities.
You can admire them, you can chase after them, but you must remain rational.
Because they are also human, and the more you chase after them excessively, the more it inflates their ego. In other words, you are harming your idol.
"What is this? This lady doesn't seem like she's lying,"
"Yeah, I saw their family at the entrance earlier. There was indeed an elderly person and a seven or eight-year-old child."
"This is why I dislike actors. It's getting worse and worse."
"Sigh... I don't follow influencers or stars. If I were to follow anyone, it would be those lovely people who serve the country."
"Society today is so pathological. It's precisely these types of people who make the most money."
The onlookers expressed their opinions, feeling that the situation was unfair.
Dongguan Street was a public place. On what grounds could it be closed for filming a TV show?
It's as if everyone wants their autograph and a photo together.
If you're going to be a celebrity, you have to accept the mindless, fanatical fans.
Xia Lin, seeing the commotion with the ladies, said to Qin Wen and the others, "Let's go see what's going on."
(ps: Some people say it's filler, but this is just the daily life at the beginning.)
Also, please give me some suggestions for a good direction. Thanks.
