Xu Anyi picked up the slippers and put them by her feet, rubbed her hair with the other hand, "It's all right, go to bed after eating."

"Aren't you going?"

"Huh?" Xu Anyi raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Why should I leave?"

So only the little liar Zhan Siqi left.

In a true sense, the 35th floor became a space for her and Xu Anyi.

After breakfast, Lin Jiqiao was reluctant to go to sleep, so he went to the study and took out the concept drafts in piles, covering the entire living room, while revising, he glanced north from time to time.Without leaving home, Xu Anyi can only walk on a treadmill after a meal.

Lin Jiqiao is used to hand-painting the concept map before building the scene model, which has an incomparable texture than digital projection, and it is easier to check for gaps and fill in gaps when spread out.

When Xu Anyi noticed the curly hair, she was already completely immersed in her own world, shuttling between the sketches painted in light green and dark brown, and sometimes using a marker to circle red circles in certain places.

Recognizing that these more than sixty A4 sheets constituted a complete forest picture scroll, Xu Anyi couldn't help but exclaimed, "That's great."

After 5 minutes, Lin Jiqiao, who didn't hear anything outside the window, woke up suddenly, and looked up into Xu Anyi's smiling eyes.

"Why?!"

"What are these red circles for?" Xu Anyi pointed to the drawing paper closest to her, not giving Counselor a chance to escape.

Lin Jiqiao scratched his hair and explained: "Mark the location of the pudding."

She wanted to make a movie for Pudding, and the source of inspiration was Xu Anyi's nickname for the kitten—Little Pudding Flying Sky.

The protagonist of the whole film is only pudding, and the finished product of Lin Jiqiao's design is to follow its perspective to travel through the jungle.

Xu Anyi asked: "The clips you sent me before?"

"It's even better than those!" Lin Jiqiao said enthusiastically when talking about his ongoing works, "Do you want to see Pudding filming?"

Xu Anyi was surprised, "Is it okay?"

"why not?"

Lin Jiqiao put Pudding in the green screen room where he injured his finger, and then connected the camera signal to the audio-visual room.

Before inviting Xu Anyi to enter, Lin Jiqiao checked the signal source several times to avoid being discovered by Xu Anyi that she was a "stalker".

After confirming that only pudding was displayed on the screen, she waved to Xu Anyi who had been waiting for a long time.

Xu Anyi was shocked by the huge cat's face and body on the wall.

The projection screen occupies two-thirds of the wall area, and three of the four windows are fixed lenses, which respectively show the front view, side view, and top view, and there is a free lens that follows its movement.

The resolution of the camera is very high, and when Pudding gets close to the camera, the texture of the small nose ball is also clearly visible.The lighting design of the room is also very ingenious, and the outline of the cow cat is clear enough.

Hearing Lin Jiqiao come in with a snack box in his arms, Xu Anyi turned around and asked, "Do you need so many shots?"

"Actually, it's not enough." Lin Jiqiao replied, "There are too few movements that Pudding can show by himself. I have to accumulate a lot of material to make up for it with post-editing."

"What moves do you want?"

"Pounce, swipe claws, turn over..." Lin Jiqiao said several times in a row, and she also demonstrated individual movements, "I bought a lot of toys for it, but it doesn't seem to be very interested."

Xu Anyi pondered for a moment, "I'll do it."

"Um?"

"Some actions require an opponent to interact with it. People can perform it against the air, but pudding is needed..." She smiled, "You are a strong cat."

"Eh?!"

Lin Jiqiao actually understood what she meant, but he couldn't believe it for a while, "Are you going to be an accompanying actress?"

Xu Anyi raised his eyebrows and asked back, "Can't you?"

"D-of course." Lin Jiqiao stared dazedly at Pudding who knew nothing about this place on the screen, thinking why I am not you.

"Okay." Xu Anyi clapped his hands, "Do I need to wear anything? Or change into green clothes?"

"No! No need for anything!" Lin Jiqiao almost shouted, "Just do whatever you want."

Even if it was a thousand times more troublesome to pick up images from all angles than changing into green clothes, she didn't want to waste this opportunity to shoot Xu Anyi.

"In that case..." Xu Anyi blushed a little, "I have to put on some makeup."

The resolution of the camera is too high, and some unnecessary details - such as pores - [-]|[-] times out of [-] will also be captured.

Of course, the main reason is to avoid reflections.

When she appeared on the screen with light makeup, Lin Jiqiao stopped breathing, and then his first reaction was to touch the phone and press the shutter with trembling hands.It is not intended to be distributed to anyone, but simply kept for private collection.

She is so pretty!

But then, it wasn't just her face that attracted Lin Jiqiao.Her performance in front of the camera is very natural. After hearing about the creative concept, she also had a preliminary idea, so she intentionally guided Pudding to make the movements Lin Jiqiao wanted.

The results of this day were so rich that by the time Lin Jiqiao realized the time, it was already late at night.

Lin Jiqiao reluctantly bid farewell to the materials filled with two hard drives, and returned to the bedroom after taking a shower. Xu Anyi was leaning against the bed and reading a book wearing glasses.

Seeing her come in, Xu Anyi closed the book, turned off the lamp, and patted the pillow next to him.

"Come to sleep."

"But..." Lin Jiqiao looked outside suspiciously, "Didn't Siqi go home?"

Chapter 51

In the end, "I forgot to change the bed sheet" and "Your bed is very comfortable to sleep in" convinced Lin Jiqiao.

Although instinctively felt that something was wrong, Lin Jiqiao stopped himself from thinking too much, turned off all the lights, took off his clothes in the dark, and got into bed.

The little bear is placed between the two pillows, faithfully performing the duties entrusted to it by Lin Jiqiao.

Xu Anyi's breathing was very steady.The melancholy in Lin Jiqiao's heart gradually intensified with the frequency of his breathing.

Was it reminding her of something? Lin Jiqiao couldn't help but wonder.

The biggest secret in her life swelled with the night, and then compressed into a thin shining needle, piercing the deepest corner of her heart with precision.

Can't sleep.

Can't sleep.

Lin Jiqiao opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. Time passed slowly and quickly. She counted more than 500 breaths and more than 600 sheep. When the pasture in her mind was crowded with bleating lambs, she was shocked. Hours passed.

She still couldn't fall asleep, so she simply rolled off the bed and slipped out of the bedroom with her clothes in her arms.

Xu Anyi waited for her for a while.

The sound of the door opening was also a shock to her.At first she thought that Lin Jiqiao was going to the bathroom, but later, she caught the sound of the refrigerator door opening and closing.Half a minute later, the crisp sound of jingle bells disturbed the silent night.

It was the sound of ice cubes hitting the bottom of the glass.

The moment the refrigerator door opened, Xu Anyi suddenly woke up.

Before Curly could reply, she fell asleep.

"What's wrong?"

Curly was wrapped in a nightgown and half-knelt in front of the refrigerator, took out a bottle of wine with a hot stamped label, and then didn't even remember to close the refrigerator door, turned around and sat on the carpet, with several blurred lines drawn by the light contour lines.

"I just..." She unscrewed the bottle cap and took a big sip before continuing, "It seems to be a dream."

Xu Anyi looked at her in the dark, "Nightmare?"

Curly took the notebook and put it on his lap, bit the mouth of the bottle and shook his head, "No, it's not."

Staring at the laptop screen, she smiled, "It shouldn't be a nightmare."

"Not going to share?"

Xu Anyi got up to close the refrigerator door, and sat next to her lap.
