Chapter 912: Luo Quan, When Are You Getting Pregnant?
"Don't move!"
After Luo Quan returned home, Mia was preparing to get up from the sofa to greet her, but was immediately stopped by Luo Quan.
Mia, who had been happy, was stunned by Luo Quan's move, then smiled helplessly: "Sister, I'm only two months pregnant. The doctor said as long as I don't do strenuous exercise, it's fine; I haven't reached the point where I can't move."
"This is Sister's virtue, caring for everyone like a baby, except for me," Leon said with a very resentful tone, seemingly having some opinions about his sister's favoritism.
Luo Quan scoffed: "If you were pregnant, I could care for you too."
Seeing Wen Xia laughed: "That technical difficulty is probably not generally high."
"Alright, you're also someone who's going to be a dad; you need to learn to be steady and not be as sloppy as before," Luo Quan said, patting her brother's shoulder with a look of earnest advice.
"I'm not steady?" Leon spread his hands. "I'm a very reliable person, okay? Have I ever messed up a single thing in all this time?"
Put that way, it seemed to be the case.
Although her brother liked to be playful, spoke a bit frivolously, and loved to act silly, he had never caused any trouble in the things he did.
Take his view on love, for instance; a handsome guy like him never lacked girls throwing themselves at him.
But he and Mia were actually each other's first love, and ever since they confirmed their relationship, he hadn't had any scandals with any other girl.
In terms of keeping distance from girls other than Mia, Leon truly did a very good job.
To be honest, Luo Quan actually had a bit of a biased impression of Leon.
"Then I guess I wronged you; I apologize," Luo Quan said, looking at Leon seriously.
However, hearing this, Leon laughed exaggeratedly: "Haha, Sister, you actually apologized? This really is the sun rising from the west. In the past, even if you were wrong, didn't you just show your fists and force me to admit my mistake?"
"When was I ever that unreasonable?"
Luo Quan felt Leon was slandering her and looked at Seeing Wen Xia and the others, asking: "Am I that unreasonable?"
"Sometimes you are," Seeing Wen Xia dismantled her without hesitation.
"There have indeed been similar situations," Su Yu also nodded.
"OK, OK," Luo Quan raised her hands in surrender, signaling everyone to stop talking. "Then I apologize, okay? I guarantee I won't make similar mistakes in the future."
"By the way, how did you spend your time in the mountains this past month?"
Seeing Wen Xia asked her curiously: "There's no signal or electricity in the mountains; how did you endure the loneliness without touching electronic devices for over half a month?"
Although this sounded problematic, electronic devices, or rather mobile phones, had indeed become a tool that modern people almost couldn't live without.
Some people online made diagrams saying that mobile phones were an external organ of humans, which wasn't an exaggeration at all.
If you look at a few young people on the street, many are looking down, playing with their phones while walking.
In school dormitories or at home, it's even more serious; they can lie in bed for a whole day with their phones, almost not moving except to eat or go to the bathroom.
So Seeing Wen Xia felt that leaving the phone was really hard to endure; anyway, she couldn't leave it.
Actually, Luo Quan couldn't leave it either, but she had more advanced phones in the Universe.
Of course, she certainly couldn't tell Seeing Wen Xia and the others about these things.
"First of all, I just didn't go online; I had a solar charger, so the phone could still be used. I stored quite a few books and videos, so I could pass the time when I was bored.
Besides, the environment in nature is truly beautiful; walking in the mountains sometimes also has a unique flavor."
Leon suddenly asked: "If you don't go online, there's no GPS positioning; aren't you afraid of getting lost?"
"I said I kill without blinking; are you asking if my eyes are dry?"
Luo Quan was rendered speechless by her brother's jumpy thinking and could only say irritably: "Your sister knows astronomy and geography; so what if there's no GPS? Just by looking at the stars in the sky, I can find the way home."
Referring to Luo Quan's past deeds, no one dared to refute this, because whenever someone questioned her lack of skill in a certain field, it wouldn't be long before they were slapped in the face hard.
So, Seeing Wen Xia, Leon, and the others all took it as if she really could observe the stars at night.
"Alright, to celebrate my return and Mia's pregnancy, I'll cook dinner myself tonight and make something delicious for everyone!" Luo Quan rolled up her sleeves, looking like she was about to do something big.
Hearing this, Seeing Wen Xia, Su Yu, and the others cheered immediately.
During the days Luo Quan was away, for the first week, they almost ate takeout every day.
It wasn't that they didn't want to cook, but their skills were just not up to par.
The good news was that Luo Quan's departure actually trained them.
Because eating takeout all the time certainly wasn't a solution, the girls were forced to find videos to learn how to cook.
At first, their skills weren't refined; they either burned the stir-fry or didn't cook it through—in short, it was the kind that couldn't be swallowed.
But as the number of experiments increased, the dishes they cooked finally became edible.
Although there was still a distance from being delicious, at least they could be considered to have mastered an important skill.
Of course, being able to eat Luo Quan's cooking again was indeed something worth cheering for.
They didn't feel anything when eating Luo Quan's cooking often, but until they started eating their own cooking, the girls finally realized how delicious Luo Quan's cooking really was.
One was a delicacy, and the other could barely be considered pig feed; it was a case of no harm without comparison.
In the evening, Luo Quan made six hearty dishes, making the others' bellies bulge like watermelons, looking more like pregnant women than the pregnant Mia.
And Mia herself, for the sake of health, didn't eat as much as the others.
During pregnancy, nutrition needs to be supplemented, but one certainly cannot overeat.
Returning to her long-lost room at night, Da Hei and Xiao Yu were the first to pounce into her arms, pouring out their longing and grievances to their master whom they hadn't seen for a long time.
Because they listened to their master, these two darlings hadn't gone out for a walk for over half a month, staying at home as door gods.
Although no one had come to cause trouble during this time, for the sake of safety, Luo Quan still let them keep their spirits up and not go wandering around.
And Da Hei and Xiao Yu were also faithfully watching the house, not even letting a mosquito in.
This was probably the most comfortable summer Seeing Wen Xia and the others had spent, because they had never encountered mosquitoes; they no longer had to worry about hearing annoying buzzing sounds when sleeping at night, and there would be no more itchy red bumps on their bodies.
Of course, besides the credit of Da Hei and Xiao Yu, the fact that this summer was too hot was also one of the reasons.
In many places, it was found that there were fewer mosquitoes this year than in previous years, just because the temperature was too high, making it too hot for mosquito larvae to hatch.
However, these were all netizens' jokes; whether there was scientific basis was not yet clear.
"You've worked hard these days. Starting tonight, you can go out and play, but remember not to be photographed," Luo Quan stroked the heads of the two darlings, looking gratified.
From being at odds at the beginning, now they could live in harmony at home for such a long time; it had to be said that this was a huge progress.
And the two little guys, finally getting their master's permission, also barked excitedly, already preparing to go into the wheat field to romp.
As for whether they would create another Shanghai wheat field crop circle, that was unknown; hopefully, it wouldn't cause any loss to the farmers growing wheat.
After handling the matters at home, Luo Quan sent a reply to the *Back to Field* production team:
"I am deeply honored by your production team's invitation. I am very willing to be a guest and participate in the recording of *Back to Field*."
Originally, Luo Quan thought the reply would be at least ten minutes later, but she didn't expect the other side to reply in seconds:
"We are the ones who are honored. The contract will be sent to your email immediately. Also, if you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask me at any time."
"Who are the guests this time?" Luo Quan didn't wait for the future and asked directly.
"There are He Qiong, Wang Lei, Peng Yuchang, Zhang Zifeng, Liang Yixing, Qin Yi..."
These were all well-known first and second-tier celebrities; a few had once been top-tier, and although they were no longer as brave as before, their popularity and fans were still there, qualifying as traffic giants.
But in front of Luo Quan, the traffic queen, the traffic giants were still a bit inferior.
In this episode, she was the definite traffic bearer, and the production team would mostly be editing around her.
However, speaking of the hottest right now, it really couldn't be Luo Quan, but Qin Yi.
Suddenly mentioning this name, probably not many people had an impression, but he had played a supporting role in a very famous domestic movie a few years ago, leaving a deep impression on the audience.
The name of this movie was *Wolf Warrior 2*, and he played that rich second generation who liked to show off.
A few years earlier, he and his ex-girlfriend Zhao Shu had starred in *Meteor Shower*.
This was considered one of the pioneering works of mainland campus idol dramas, although some plots in it now seemed full of flaws and jokes, such as the luxury brand Metersbonwe, and the famous "First, I'm not called 'Hey', I'm called Chu Yuxun."
These were all famous memes on the internet.
After the two broke up, Qin Yi's development was initially not as good as Zhao Shu's.
The former was always lukewarm and hadn't acted in any good dramas.
While the latter had constant acting offers, and she could be seen acting out in various variety shows.
But precisely because she was too good at acting out, she finally ruined her own career.
Now, it was impossible for Zhao Shu to enter the entertainment industry again, and she was also burdened with hundreds of millions in huge debts, forced to sell the luxury house she had just gotten, and it was unknown how much she had paid back.
After Zhao Shu cooled down, netizens originally felt deep sympathy for Qin Yi, thinking that his lack of career success all these years was all thanks to this ex-girlfriend who liked to act out.
However, when Qin Yi's new drama, which he wrote and starred in, was launched recently, netizens realized that these two were a match made in heaven, and their level of weirdness was almost on par.
This TV series titled *Gentlemen of the West Fourth District* was destined to be recorded in the history of Huaxia film and television.
Before it, there hadn't been, and after it, it would probably be hard to have such a bad TV series again.
Douban had over 50,000 people rating it 2.1, the lowest level in history; if it weren't for the fact that you could only give one star at the lowest, netizens would probably have rated it negative.
You couldn't find a work in the TV series that could be compared with it; even if expanded to the film circle, probably only *Pure Heart* could compete with it.
It was hard to say who was worse, but at least Director Bi's heart was good, and the work exposed the darkness of the entertainment industry's hidden rules, and the overall tone of the work was also positive, which was worth praising.
As for *Gentlemen of the West Fourth District*, first of all, the values were truly incorrect, and many plots were completely treating the audience like fools, designed to be completely unreasonable.
The female lead in this drama suffered a great deal and was often made to feel greasy by the male lead.
Besides that, another supporting male role invited the leader of the "Stab-in-the-Back Sect" to act, which made the already poor reputation of this TV series even worse.
Rotten to this heaven-shaking and earth-shattering degree, *Gentlemen of the West Fourth District* became the only hit at the tail end of this summer.
No TV series could surpass its popularity; the videos mocking it on Bilibili had very high viewership, and major uploaders also liked to make videos mocking it; as for other TV series, they couldn't enjoy such "preferential" treatment at all.
And as the screenwriter and the only male lead of this drama, Qin Yi had recently been frequently sprayed onto the trending searches because of his performance in the drama.
Not only because of his acting that could be called the "Grease King," but also including the plot he arranged in the drama to take advantage of the female lead, which made netizens very angry after watching, feeling that he was using public office for private gain.
The specific truth was unknown, and Qin Yi himself hadn't made any reply.
However, the scolding was loud, but it also provided Qin Yi with huge popularity.
Originally, after *Wolf Warrior 2*, he had been in a semi-cooled state and couldn't get any decent appearances or endorsements.
After *Gentlemen of the West Fourth District* became popular this time, it did bring him quite a lot of traffic.
Black-red is also red; what entertainment celebrities fear most is not being scolded, but no one paying attention to them.
Someone scolding means someone is willing to pay attention to him, even if the scolding is a bit harsh.
Some celebrities even wish for netizens to scold them, sometimes even specifically posting some controversial remarks to invite scolding; this is an example of applying the black-red theory to perfection.
Of course, Qin Yi filming *Gentlemen of the West Fourth District* probably wasn't for black-red.
It was said that he spent six years polishing this script.
Which meant that when he was filming *Wolf Warrior 2*, he had already been writing the script for this TV series for a while.
Whether it had truly been that long, only he knew in his heart; besides, rotten is rotten, but he certainly treated it seriously, hoping to use this drama to increase some popularity and see if he could turn things around.
It could only be said that if you plant flowers intentionally, they won't bloom; if you plant willows unintentionally, they will grow into shade.
This drama was definitely a failure, because it was the lowest-rated in the history of Huaxia TV series.
On the other hand, it was also a success; Qin Yi became famous because of the sky-high scolding, and now he had even received an invitation to *Back to Field*.
It could be foreseen that the traffic for the new season of *Back to Field* would definitely be terrifying.
Not only was there Luo Quan, but there was also Qin Yi.
Netizens who loved to eat melons could look forward to it fiercely.
Of course, the guest list for the production team hadn't been announced yet, and everyone didn't know which gods had been invited for the new season. ===== CHAPTER 913 =====
