Chapter 291: Chapter 288: Lu Xiao’s Plan for Her! Sweet

Wen Xian’s body grew warm at the thought, and she bit into a juicy grape, its sweet flavor bursting onto her tongue.

She hummed softly, her face blushing, “He, indeed, is quite impressive.”

More than just quite impressive.

His explosive power, his stamina, both were remarkably formidable.

She couldn’t afford to dwell on it, for thinking about it made her legs inexplicably weak.

…

Lu Xiao didn’t finish the rescue until midnight, returning muddied and disheveled with several teammates.

No one escaped unscathed.

By that time of night, Wen Xian had already gone to sleep.

After Lu Xiao emerged from his shower, he seemed to remember something and made his way to the desk. While drying his hair with a towel, he pulled out a chair and sat down.

There was a photo frame on the desk, featuring him and his former teammates.

Lu Xiao stared at it for a long while. Eventually, he opened a drawer, placed the photo frame inside, and locked it away.

Now.

All that was in the past seemed to have been let go.

Having someone in his heart seemed to give him an indescribable sense of belonging, making his soul feel anchored once more in this world.

He picked up the rolled-up map at the corner of the desk, unfurled it, smoothed it out with his palm, and placed several agate stones on top to hold it down–it was a map of the entire Qinghai Province.

It clearly depicted the province’s terrain, its lakes and mountains.

And there he was, staring intently at the map as if trying to pinpoint a particular location.

Eventually, he circled an area backed by mountains with a nearby water source.

As time ticked away, everyone in the jurisdiction had fallen asleep, even Little Ping’an in the dog house outside, with one leg draped over the other, his little head resting on top, sound asleep.

But in his room alone.

The cold moonlight poured in, blanketing his bed and the floor.

The dim light from the desk lamp cast his elongated shadow against the wall, long and stretched out.

…

Only as dawn began to break did Lu Xiao finally rest.

And on the desk, he left behind traces of the previous night’s labor.

There were several sheets of white A4 paper with rough sketches–a square, neatly laid out wooden house featuring a design with strong local characteristics.

After the truth about Wen Xian’s incident exploded on the internet, it indeed created a sensation like an earthquake, stirring strong shock and reactions.

One after another, official media outlets released stories, and with the public relations team led by Ling Jie, more details emerged: Wen Xian had been seriously ill and distressed after the incident.

Moreover, moments from her filming on location, suffering from oxygen deprivation and altitude sickness, even videos of her repeatedly tumbling down high slopes during shoots, were all exposed.

She was cast as a hardworking actor who did good deeds yet was wrongfully accused.

It was indeed the truth, albeit perhaps exaggerated a bit more severely.

It made countless people feel ashamed.

They not only flocked to apologize to her en masse but many also genuinely changed their opinions about her.

Her tens of millions of fans spiked once more by several million.

As for Wen Xian,

She didn’t say much but simply re-shared a statement she had posted before–

“Without full understanding, do not make comments.”

The first time she posted this, she was scolded by countless people.

Now, posting it again, it received millions of likes.

This principle is understood by all, but how many will adhere to it?

Or put differently, who really cares if you are wronged?

Worse still, some wish only to vent the frustrations of their own lives onto you.

However, in the end, Wen Xian still posted several photos separately.

And in one of these photos, her smile was particularly radiant.

[Brother Jiu: Ah, sorry my darlings, I’ve been too busy with exams, I’ll continue updating soon! Go to sleep, goodnight!]
