Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 93: An Encounter with the War God Crew

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: An Encounter with the War God Crew

Bai Xiaotang, who was completely unaware, shivered in surprise and turned her head, her eyes suddenly wide open.

All the gazes around her immediately focused on her, examining, curious, envious, jealous...

Zhang Qi, who had successfully blended into their group, whistled and exaggeratedly said, "Wow, Bai Xiaotang, this car is awesome! Who is this guy? Your brother?"

Bai Xiaotang nodded randomly and ran over, nervously asking, "Fu...brother, why are you here?"

"To take you to Jiuming Mountain."

Bai Xiaotang was instantly dumbfounded, "Leaving today?"

"Yes, now."

"Aren’t we taking our luggage?"

"There’s everything at the guesthouse."

"I’m talking about clothes..."

"Do you need to change clothes in just two days?"

Bai Xiaotang had a look like an old man on a subway watching a phone.

"Don’t you change into pajamas when you sleep?"

Fu Yuanxuan frowned, then looked at the group walking over with Ji Ning, asking, "Do you guys have anything to bring?"

Lin Yuanyang pushed his glasses and said, "I didn’t bring my medicine."

This reason was powerful.

It directly forced Fu Yuanxuan to turn the car around and take them back to Mingfu Garden, smoking downstairs until the sun set.

Only then did the three slowly come down with their suitcases.

Fu Yuanxuan watched the three of them pushing five large suitcases and began to doubt life a bit.

After getting in the car, he sent a message to his subordinate:

[Change the room to the biggest one.]

Sitting in the backseat, Bai Xiaotang also lowered her head to send a message in their small group of four:

[Tang: I feel like Fu Tiegang taking us to Jiuming Mountain this time is a bit strange.]

[Tong: Fu Tiegang?]

[Tang: He’s just a straightforward iron man! I won’t take no for an answer!!! (angry)]

[Tong: (snickering) It takes some talent to make Tangtang angry.]

[Yang: He is acting a bit unusual. Don’t move alone over there.]

[Tang: Okay, I’ll stick with Sister Ning the whole time. Xiao Yang, you be careful too.]

[Yang: ...]

Seeing Ji Ning had not involved herself, Lin Yuanyang immediately sent a private message.

[Yang: Sister Ning, when you and Ye Tong went to Nanling those days, You Le was being followed. She purposely led the person into a small alley and confronted the person following her. That person was strong, probing her skills during the fight, then suddenly stopped and left. The person hasn’t appeared since. Now thinking about it, that tracker might be from Fu Yuanxuan’s side.]

After reading, Ji Ning looked up at Fu Yuanxuan, who seemed focused on driving, then looked back at her phone and replied to Lin Yuanyang with an "I have read" meme.

It’s over 200 kilometers from Anhe City Center to Jiuming Mountain, taking more than two hours by highway.

Since they hadn’t eaten dinner, Fu Yuanxuan drove them to the nearest service station to buy some fast food.

The group of handsome men and beautiful women attracted many eyes, including several bigwigs from the "War God" production crew.

Director Lin Anqing’s mind suddenly stalled with a "buzz" when he first saw Ji Ning.

Isn’t this the War God in his mind?

A slender body, determined eyes, a cool demeanor, an undeniable presence.

Lin Anqing was so excited that he almost spilled his coffee.

He stared intently at Ji Ning.

Soon, the girl not far away glanced at him quickly.

"So similar... It’s that expression. She is exactly the War God I want..."

"Director Lin... Director Lin..."

The producer, seeing Lin Anqing staring at the group as if possessed, muttering to himself, knew he had met his ideal image.

Back then, it was Su Qiangwei who caught his eye in such a manner.

Lin Anqing suddenly threw the coffee cup on the table, regardless of the coffee splashing all over him, stood up quickly, and ran over, "Wait a moment..."

Fu Yuanxuan, who was at the back, directly raised his hand to block him, "What do you want?"

Lin Anqing, fishing in his pocket, looked steadily at Ji Ning, "Don’t be nervous, I’m not a bad guy. I’m a director working on a film, and I saw that you fit the role well. I want to invite you to audition."

Lin Anqing rummaged through his pocket for a long time, only pulling out his phone, quickly handing it over to Ji Ning, his eyes burning with passion, "Miss, could we exchange contact information?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The girl at the ordering counter chuckled, and the diners in line in front threw disdainful glances, one big fellow even bluntly said, "Sir, how old are you to be flirting here?"

"That’s right, these days you meet all sorts. Her boyfriend is right there, not afraid of getting punched?"

Lin Anqing hurriedly explained, "I’m really a director, you can ask my colleagues if you don’t believe me."

Having spotted his mental "War God", there was no way he would let her slip away, so he immediately called his old friends, "You guys come over quickly."

The producer had just cleaned the coffee off himself and hadn’t sat back down before he was urged to come for verification.

"Hello, indeed he is a director, has directed quite a few films, we can discuss this further over there." The producer, years of doing business with Lin Anqing, handed a business card directly to Ji Ning.

Ji Ning was about to refuse when she saw the "War God" production crew on the card, taking it instead.

Next to her, Bai Xiaotang leaned over to take a look, almost exclaiming out loud in shock, quickly pinching Ji Ning’s sleeve, winking.

Ji Ning held her hand down, looked at her, and Bai Xiaotang immediately quieted, eyes turning brightly towards Lin Anqing.

Seeing the opportunity, Lin Anqing quickly said, "Miss, let’s talk somewhere else."

Lin Anqing’s team was also heading to Jiuming Mountain, mainly to scout locations for the "War God" TV series.

Jiuming Mountain was the place where Ji Ning was martyred in chaotic times, protected by subsequent generations. Apart from constructing a cemetery, a memorial hall was also built.

It not only restored the architecture of Anhe Base’s early days but preserved items from people’s lives and battles back then, truly a historical and cultural museum.

As a result, many productions filming chaotic-era dramas come here to shoot.

The museum even sets aside a dedicated space for these crews to use for filming.

Lin Anqing invited them to chat where the crew’s cars were parked, but Fu Yuanxuan, unsure of their intentions, insisted they come to his parking area instead.

Ji Ning swiftly scanned the cars parked around, letting out a soft laugh.

At this moment, Fu Yuanxuan’s micro earpiece transmitted his subordinate’s voice, "Captain, we’ve verified their information; most are part of the ’War God’ crew, but a few don’t belong to the team. They are Feng Family from Beijing."

Fu Yuanxuan paused, then coughed twice, telling the three, "I’ll go have a smoke. You chat."

Bai Xiaotang was in no mood to linger with Fu Yuanxuan, replying readily, "Go, go, smoke more if you like."

"..."

Once Fu Yuanxuan left, Lin Anqing and others finally relaxed; that man was too intimidating, even without speaking, he exerted an oppressive aura just by standing there.

Could this girl perform the role?

Lin Anqing, both hopeful and worried, directly stated, "I’m Lin Anqing, the director in charge of casting for the ’War God’ crew. I feel you perfectly match the image of the female lead in our drama and would like to invite you to play Chairman Ji, the female lead. What’s your name?"

Hearing this, Bai Xiaotang burst into laughter, drawing glances from the entertainment bigwigs.

She apologized a little embarrassedly, "Sorry, I didn’t mean it. My Sister Ning’s name is Ji Ning."

This time the film bigwigs also spluttered, looking Ji Ning over for a long time in amazement before joking, "This is fate indeed. Seems like you are destined to play the female lead."

"Yes, it’s absolutely a blessing from the heavens. You wouldn’t know how worried Director Lin was about the female lead role, losing sleep night after night, losing hair in bunches, he’s about to go bald, see?"

Seeing them singing in unison trying to settle her, Ji Ning calmly said, "My friend suits the role better than I do."
