The voice came from the entrance of a clothing store diagonally across the street, carrying a hint of barely suppressed excitement.

With his excellent hearing, Qiguan Yuan turned his head and saw a young woman standing at the shop entrance, carrying a cloth bag and with bright, sparkling eyes.

He seemed frozen in place, his feet not moving, his upper body leaning slightly forward, staring intently at them.

After she shouted that, she was stunned for a moment, belatedly realizing that she had spoken too loudly. She looked around, then quickly looked away, tightening her grip on the strap of the cloth bag.

I'm so excited, haha, I can't control myself.

Qiguan Yuan glanced at Pei Yubai, and Pei Yubai looked back at him.

The two of them turned around at the same time and walked towards the store.

When the girl saw them walking towards her, it felt as if something pushed her from the soles of her feet, causing her to take a half-step back before quickly regaining her footing.

Her mouth opened and closed again, her gaze shifting between Qiguan Yuan and Pei Yubai a few times before finally settling on Pei Yubai's face. " Film Emperor Pei! I... I'm your fan! I've been following you since your very first movie!"

She spoke very quickly, and her voice was trembling by the last few words.

Like many fans who suddenly meet their idol.

Pei Yubai nodded. "Thank you."

The girl glanced at Qiguan Yuan again, her voice lowering slightly, "I like Yuanyuan too."

After hearing the other person say that they really liked Yuanyuan, Pei Yubai also felt a special fondness for this fan.

Pei Yubai has many solo fans, most of whom are rational. Even if they don't want to see Pei Yubai have a partner, if he does, they will just silently follow Pei Yubai.

He neither particularly accepted Qiguan Yuan nor actually attacked him.

Those who were accepting of it all happily became friends with Xiao Yuan Grains, becoming the most active group in the live stream.

Clearly, the quantity is also extremely considerable.

Of course, there are also extreme cases where people can't accept it and will verbally abuse Qiguan Yuan.

In the eyes of such people, no matter how good-looking you are, they will still attack you blindly.

People who harbor ill will towards you will not see your merits, no matter how obvious they may be.

Pei Yubai had enough power to suppress these extreme fans and protect Qiguan Yuan well, never allowing any comments that might harm Qiguan Yuan to surface.

Pei Yubai was well aware of his fans' preferences, so he felt particularly fond of the Imperial Fans who also liked Yuanyuan because of their Yuanyuan for her.

Qiguan Yuan stood at the doorway, the shop lights shining from behind him and falling on his shoulders, giving him an inexplicable divine quality.

He didn't reply, but the smile on his lips was obvious.

The girl seemed to remember something, turned around and ran into the store, her cloth bag swinging behind her.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the cloth bag was stuck with many needles threaded with different colored threads.

She rummaged around behind the counter for a while and found a marker and a piece of paper. It was a small notepad used in the store for writing messages; the paper was not very big and the edges were not very neat.

She ran back, still out of breath, and handed the paper and pen to the two of them. "Could you both sign my name? Both of you can do it together."

Qiguan Yuan took the pen and wrote the three characters " Qiguan Yuan " on the sticky note. His handwriting was casual, reflecting his usual lazy style.

Pei Yubai also took the pen and wrote the three characters " Pei Yubai " next to it, his handwriting very tight.

You can tell he was signing his name very seriously.

The girl took the note, looked at it for a while, carefully folded it, and put it into the innermost compartment of her cloth bag.

She looked up at the two of them, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Are you here to film a TV show?"

Pei Yubai nodded.

She asked again, "So how long will you be staying here?"

Pei Yubai talked for two or three days.

This was the time Meng Xu arranged here, since they were going to their next destination.

Moreover, although Yuanyuan said he wasn't in a hurry to do what he needed to do, it wouldn't be good to wait too long.

We definitely need to take Qiguan Yuan's time into account.

The girl switched the bag's strap to her other hand, gripping the edge with her fingers, then released it. "Could you come to the store again?"

When Pei Yubai cast a questioning look at her, the girl nervously said, "I work in the clothing industry. Over the years, I've designed several Dunhuang- style outfits for Film Emperor Pei, and I've always wanted to give him the opportunity to wear them."

"I saw you two together on a live stream the other day, so I designed another set for Yuanyuan, to match Film Emperor Pei's set. It's almost finished."

She finished speaking in one breath, as if afraid she wouldn't be able to say it if she spoke too slowly, "I think, if it doesn't disturb Film Emperor Pei and you, Yuanyuan, I'd like to try to fulfill my dream of seeing my idols wear clothes I designed."

"Of course, if time doesn't allow it, or if it's inconvenient for you, that's fine too. Film Emperor Pei, you can proceed according to your schedule."

Pei Yubai glanced at Qiguan Yuan.

Qiguan Yuan had just turned his gaze away from the clothes hanging in the store and looked at the girl. "I'm very interested in this kind of clothing. If possible, we would be honored if it could be an opportunity for you to fulfill your dream, little friend."

The girl paused for a moment, then nodded excitedly, "Okay, okay! I'll finish it as soon as possible in the next couple of days! Thank you, Yuanyuan!"

Oh my god! No wonder so many people like Yuanyuan, he's so gentle.

Even though Yuanyuan doesn't look very Yuanyuan, it doesn't feel out of place at all when he calls a child; there's a strange gentleness and a touch of charm in it.

It doesn't feel out of place at all.

Qiguan Yuan took Pei Yubai's phone out of Pei Yubai pocket, opened WeChat, and scanned the QR code with the girl to add her as a friend, much to her surprise.

He handed the phone back to Pei Yubai and said to the girl, "We'll be coming over in two days. We're really looking forward to your clothes!"

The girl stood there, watching the two turn and walk away. The red hem of her dress and the black coat grew farther and farther away in the night market lights, until they were swallowed up by the crowd.

She hugged the cloth bag to her chest, stood at the door for a while, then turned and ran back into the store. She took the notepad out of the bag and looked at it again. Unable to resist sharing her feelings, she took a picture and opened Weibo.

He added a caption and posted it: This life was worth it! Film Emperor Pei is so handsome! Yuanyuan is so gentle! I'm so excited!

After sending the message, she wiped her slightly flushed face, tossed her phone onto the table, rolled up her sleeves, walked to the sewing machine, sat down, and stepped on the pedal, starting the machine up.

She's now bursting with energy; she's determined to make the clothes the best they can be!

The second day's filming location was Mingsha Mountain.

The car drove for more than forty minutes.

The few remaining patches of green outside the window have also disappeared. Sand dunes rise from the ground, one after another, as if someone has frozen the sea; the waves are still there, but the water is gone.

The car was parked on a flat area. Meng Xu got out of the car first and stood at the door waiting for everyone else to get out.

Shen Yuzhou's first step into the sand sank in, burying him up to his ankles. When he pulled his shoe out, it was full of sand. He tried to empty it a few times but couldn't, so he gave up.

The others weren't as disheveled as Shen Yuzhou, but they weren't much better off.

Only when Qiguan Yuan stepped onto the sand did his feet not sink in.

His shoes landed on the sand, leaving only a shallow imprint, as if he were stepping on solid ground.

He walked for a while, then looked back at the footprints he had left behind. They were very shallow, and the wind made them almost invisible.

Pei Yubai followed beside him, his feet sinking half an inch into the ground, leaving a pit with every step.

Qiguan Yuan chuckled and secretly cast a spell on the soles of his feet to make it easier for him to walk.

Pei Yubai naturally felt the change in his feet, tightened his grip on Qiguan Yuan's hand, and very naturally turned his head to kiss Qiguan Yuan.

In fact, ever since they were separated for two months, Pei Yubai has been seizing every opportunity to get close to Qi Qiguan Yuan.

Qiguan Yuan condoned this.

They walked along the ridge of the dunes and stood at the highest point, looking down.

Crescent Spring is nestled among sand dunes. Its water is deep blue, resembling an eye, while the sand dunes are yellow, forming the only place where water has cut through the sky and the earth.

The camel caravan was waiting below the sand dunes.

The camel was brown, standing in the distance, slowly chewing something.

Cheng Yanqiu was very curious about the camel. She walked over quickly, pushed herself up slightly, and mounted it. When the camel stood up, she leaned back slightly and quickly grabbed the iron ring in front of the saddle.

Lin Yanru a little afraid of camels, and she couldn't get on them.

After exchanging a glance with Meng Xu and obtaining Lin Yanru's permission, Su He'an handed the camera to the other staff members and then squatted down slightly in front of Lin Yanru.

He supported Lin Yanru's legs, letting her sit on his shoulders, and carefully helped Lin Yanru onto the camel's back.

Then, leading the camel and keeping it slow, he stayed by Lin Yanru's side the whole time.

Ji Shiyu, Jiang Wantang, and Shen Yuzhou also successfully boarded the camels.

Qiguan Yuan walked up to a camel. The camel turned its head and glanced at him, making a muffled sound from its snort. It then nuzzled against Qiguan Yuan.

Exceptionally docile.

Qiguan Yuan climbed onto the camel's back. The camel didn't even sway. After sensing that Qiguan Yuan was settled, it proudly raised its head and walked past its companions.

It seems like he's showing off.

Pei Yubai rode beside him, and when the camel stood up, he steadied himself and did not lean back.

Then his camel hurriedly sped up to catch up with Qiguan Yuan's camel.

The camel caravan began to move.

Qiguan Yuan's camel walked proudly ahead, head held high.

Pei Yubai followed closely behind.

Then came the excited Cheng Yanqiu and Shen Yuzhou.

Next up were Jiang Wantang and Ji Shiyu.

Su He'an, meanwhile, leisurely led Lin Yanru's camel, following at the very back.

Lin Yanru tugged at her sleeve. " A-Su, you should get on the camel too. Don't worry about me, I can walk slowly by myself. It's too tiring for you to walk like this."

Su He'an shook her head. "I'm physically fit, don't worry, I'll stay with you."

Lin Yanru thought back to the outfit Su He'an deliberately wore to seduce her; she did indeed have a great figure, Su He'an's abs were truly the best she had ever seen.

Add to that her healthy, tanned skin, and she's practically a speed bump for Lin Yanru.

He completely captivated her at that moment.

The sand dunes undulate.

The camel's feet sank into the sand with each step, then pulled out again, the sand slipping off the edges of its hooves, creating a soothing sound.

The wind blew from the ridgeline of the dunes, carrying dry, hot air and whipping up a thin layer of sand that moved close to the ground.

The sun was high overhead, its light so bright it reflected off the sand, making it hard to open one's eyes.

Su He'an pulled the brim of his sun hat down further and squinted as he looked ahead.

The sand dunes ahead were higher, and the camels began to climb the slope, slowing their pace.

The sun was so strong that even the guests couldn't stand it.

Fortunately, Meng Xu promptly brought water, a small fan, sun hats, and other cooling items.

Unlike the other guests who were listless, Qiguan Yuan seemed completely unaffected.

The fans who were watching him intently were focused on his face and didn't realize that their live stream was different from the others.

Qiguan Yuan was dressed in a red robe, his hair still loose.

I didn't break a sweat at all.

When they reached the vicinity of Crescent Spring, the camel caravan stopped.

Shen Yuzhou jumped down because of the heat, but his feet sank into the sand. He pulled them out, walked to the spring, squatted down, and touched the water.

The temperature has finally dropped.

Cheng Yanqiu also came over, squatted down next to Shen Yuzhou, and put his hand into the water as well.

The other guests did the same.

Lin Yanru stood by the spring for a while, Su He'an stood next to her, taking a panoramic photo of Crescent Spring with his camera, and then turning the lens to take a picture of Lin Yanru.

The production crew's drone has taken off.

A buzzing sound came from above, the propeller churned the air, kicking up a layer of fine sand that landed on my shoulder and then slid off.

Meng Xu stood at the foot of the sand dune, looked up at the direction the drone was flying, and looked down at the monitor.

Shen Yuzhou stood up from the spring and looked up at the drone, which was flying along the ridge of the sand dunes, leaving a thin shadow.

Su He'an mounted the camera on a tripod and adjusted the angle.

While Su He'an was working, Lin Yanru squatted down on the sand and drew a camel with her finger. After finishing, she looked up at Qiguan Yuan and then added two more strokes.

All preparations are underway, albeit slowly.

As the sun begins to set in the west, the light changes from white to gold, and then from gold to orange-red.

The color of the sand dunes changes layer by layer with the changing light. The sand nearby is golden, the sand further away is dark red, and in the far distance, the sand and the sky blend together, making it difficult to distinguish where the sand ends and the sky begins.

Qiguan Yuan stood up from the sand dune and walked uphill along the ridge of the dune.

Qiguan Yuan stopped at the highest point of the sand dune and turned to look at the people below.

The people below the dunes became tiny clumps, their faces obscured, only their outlines visible.

A gust of wind blew from behind him, causing his coat to flutter before falling back down.

Suddenly, it felt like I had returned to a long time ago, when Yun Yin left the Heavenly Realm due to some troubles and came to the mortal world to deal with some matters.

Qiguan Yuan, who hadn't been separated from Yun Yin for so long, came to find him.

At that time, he was standing on this same sand dune with Yun Yin, overlooking a view that did not exist in the Heavenly Realm.

At this moment, everything seemed unchanged, except that Yun Yin no longer remembered him.
