As a female celebrity who rose from rural origins to beco almost the top leading lady at her peak, she couldn't rely solely on looks and acting skills.
Zhao Xiaodao's vision and mind are both exceptionally sharp and astute.
Although the recent scene almost overturned her worldview, she gleaned quite a bit from the two's conversation.
Firstly, the two know each other—they were definitely acting just now, or at least the situation wasn't as serious as they claid. Otherwise, it's impossible they would stop imdiately when I appeared, and their conversation had remarkable tacit understanding. Clearly, they are friends, or even closer.
Secondly, they aren't Transmigrators, or even if they are, they didn't just arrive, because they know . That's a sign they've lived in modern society for quite so ti; otherwise, which Transmigrator would imdiately learn about Otherworld celebrities after arriving? Even LSPs need priorities.
Third, the woman's first reaction upon seeing was to ask what to do. It's clear their powers are hidden, not ant for ordinary eyes. Exposure would bring problems. Although Zhao Xiaodao doesn't know what these problems are, considering her own mindset now, she can guess sowhat.
So, here's the question: What happens when an ordinary person witnesses power they shouldn't see?
Zhao Xiaodao's first thought was murder to silence!
Don't argue, Martial Arts Masters have appeared, leaping over eaves, Sword Qi flying, you think they'll pull out a non-disclosure agreent for her?
Of course, from their dialogue and actions, they don't seem like Demons who'd kill on a whim. I'm not a rootless ordinary person either; they probably have other options.
But Zhao Xiaodao doesn't want to gamble on the unknown.
So, under what circumstances can you dispel the thought of murder to silence?
Of course, by establishing a closer relationship.
As for what constitutes a "close relationship," it could be friendship, partnership, marriage, or master-servant, and among these, there's also master-apprentice.
After eliminating other possible choices in her mind, Zhao Xiaodao decisively took a step back and knelt inside the room.
"I implore you, heroine, accept as your disciple!"
Partly for self-preservation, partly for genuine hope, because who doesn't want to beco a superhero?
So Zhao Xiaodao was extrely sincere.
When Zhao Xiaodao spoke this, her assistant was dumbfounded, and Lin Wan was montarily stunned by her action.
Lu Zheng couldn't help but give a thumbs-up; for Zhao Xiaodao to climb to this status on her own strength is truly impressive.
"Taking on a celebrity as an apprentice sounds kind of nice, doesn't it?" Lu Zheng teased with a smile.
"Don't joke around; I just started Cultivation. What kind of master would I be? If anyone's taking on apprentices, it's you."
"No way, that's too mainstream; not my style."
Zhao Xiaodao: (ง˙o˙)ว
Lin Wan shot Lu Zheng a glance, thinking his words were a bit too blunt in front of her.
"What should we do?" Lin Wan asked again.
"Relax," Lu Zheng nodded, "whether true or illusion, like a Yellow Millet Dream, I have a thod. Since fate has brought us together tonight, why not ask for an autograph?"
Lin Wan, "..."
Saying this, she was also curious, her figure leapt up, flying through the open window.
The assistant was so startled that she backed up two steps, huddling in fear at the corner of the table.
Lu Zheng followed in, smiled at the assistant, and she imdiately felt a wave of confusion, her eyes glaze over, the whole person falling into a chaotic state.
Turning back, Lu Zheng finally asked, "Why are you here?"
"After filming ended, I forgot my phone here..."
Zhao Xiaodao had just said a couple of words when she saw Lin Wan lightly raise her hand, lifting her up.
Zhao Xiaodao: w(°o°)w
At this ti, she was utterly convinced, recounting her recent itinerary.
Lu Zheng was speechless, "Wow, that short window, such perfect timing."
Turning to Zhao Xiaodao, Lu Zheng's expression beca stern, then he chuckled wickedly, "Hehe, since you've seen things you shouldn't, don't bla us for being ruthless!"
Though knowing Lu Zheng was likely joking, Zhao Xiaodao's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly moved closer to Lin Wan, pleating her expression in innocence, "Heroine, save ~"
That look, that vibe...
"Don't scare her," Lin Wan couldn't help but slap Lu Zheng.
"Haha, look at her performance; it's much better than ours."
Lin Wan glanced at Lu Zheng, "I think your acting was good too, quite irritating!"
Lu Zheng: (◔◡◔)
Seeing their antics, Zhao Xiaodao knew she was safe, turned to her silent assistant, noticing her anomaly.
"Heroine... she?"
Lu Zheng replied, "When she wakes in the morning, she won't rember tonight."
At this, Zhao Xiaodao was startled, "Soul Transfer Technique?"
Lin Wan chuckled, and Lu Zheng nodded, "Sothing like that."
"Can... can't you not use it on ? I swear I won't tell anyone!" Zhao Xiaodao quickly promised.
This magical experience is too precious to forget.
"I swear!" Zhao Xiaodao raised her hand, extending three fingers, earnestly.
Lin Wan turned to look at Lu Zheng, who shrugged, giving her a "do as you see fit" look.
Given her celebrity aura, Zhao Xiaodao generally behaves well, isn't a blabbermouth. Plus, Lin Wan's vanity played a part, so after pondering, she warned, "Absolutely don't speak of this to anyone."
Zhao Xiaodao nodded repeatedly, overjoyed.
"Heroine, can I be your disciple?" Zhao Xiaodao asked cautiously.
Lin Wan shook her head.
"Too old?"
"You don't have ti to practice Martial Arts, besides, if you do beco adept, planning to showcase Lightweight Skill nationwide?"
Zhao Xiaodao, "..."
"Alright, it's late, best you take your assistant back; you have filming tomorrow."
"Oh, oh, um..." Zhao Xiaodao stamred, "Could we add each other as friends?"
"No..."
"Sure," Lu Zheng interjected with a smile, cutting off Lin Wan's refusal, "No problem, but we left our phones; give us your number, we'll add you later."
Of course they had their phones, just stored in the gourd.
Martial Arts can be rationalized, but Cultivation and storage space stretch credibility.
"Alright, alright!"
Zhao Xiaodao quickly recited her phone number, then grabbed a notepad from the assistant's bag and wrote it down, handing it to Lu Zheng.
"Alright, head back. Your assistant will stay with you, she'll freshen up at the hotel, wake up rembering only to get your phone, forgetting everything else. Rember, no slips," Lu Zheng advised.
Zhao Xiaodao nodded repeatedly.
"Let's go, we'll escort you to the film city entrance," Lin Wan said.
"Mm-hmm, thank you."
"Don't shout."
"Huh?"
Lin Wan stepped forward, supporting Zhao Xiaodao's arm, and in the next mont, Zhao Xiaodao felt herself soaring light as a feather.
