Chapter 731 Existence itself is worth celebrating
After lunch, Ye Sanqing suggested watching a movie or resting, and everyone agreed.
"However, since it's a motorhome trip, won't it be a bit dull if we just stay inside the motorhome?" Ye Sanqing asked.
“Traveling is all about following your own mood, and besides, you’re not always on the move,” Sheng Hanyu replied. “The key is to enjoy the journey itself. We’ll be arriving at our destination by evening, and then we’ll need to do some shopping and set up our tents, so it’s good to rest now.”
"Alright, that's all for now." Ye Sanqing waved his hand.
After everyone else left, Sheng Hanyu looked at her.
"what happened?"
“There’s no room for me here,” Sheng Hanyu said with a smile.
"Oh, if you don't mind, you can stay here," Ye Sanqing said nonchalantly. "I wasn't planning on really resting; I was planning to watch a movie here for a while."
"So, what movies are we going to see together?"
“Since we’re on the road, we should definitely watch a road movie; it’s more fitting,” Ye Sanqing said earnestly.
"What's so appropriate about this scenery?" Sheng Hanyu found it somewhat amusing. Shouldn't we prioritize enjoying the view in front of us?
However, the outside is all plains, and it can get tiring after a while.
"Okay, then go ahead and put it down."
During the movie, they didn't chat much, but quietly enjoyed the story.
"These foreign road movies are so exciting, they even have gunfights."
As the end credits rolled, Ye Sanqing stretched and got up, moving his body as he commented.
"Hmm, do you want to learn?"
"Learn what, driving or shooting?" Ye Sanqing asked curiously. "That being said, I haven't had time to learn to drive yet."
Although she had considered learning in her spare time, there were just too many people on the film set, which was hard to explain...
"You need a space to drive, so there's no rush. The most important thing is that you don't need to drive right now."
"Do I need to fire a gun right now?" Ye Sanqing laughed. "I don't think so."
"Uh." Sheng Hanyu had just been trying to start a conversation, but now he was stuck on his own topic.
"It's not that I particularly want to learn these skills, but it would be more convenient to have them. But as you know, it's not that I'm completely incapable, it's just that... these things are structured differently from before."
Ye Sanqing didn't seem to care much and continued speaking.
"I just asked casually, and I didn't mean to say that I wanted to learn it now," Sheng Hanyu explained. "For example, after you finish filming this movie, go abroad or something, and learn these things while you're at it. I have a venue here."
"Oh, that's quite convenient." Ye Sanqing smiled, as if remembering something. "There's a saying, 'My dad taught me in Hawaii'..."
"That sounds ominous. If I really went there to study, I feel like I'd turn into a Grim Reaper elementary school student." Sheng Hanyu laughed. "But it's not impossible for you to go if you want."
“I’m fine with anything, but if you’re talking about holidays… do I really have any?” Ye Sanqing complained. “We’ve been filming for so long now, and although it’s not as terrible as the 996 and 007 work schedules they talk about, and I do have rest time, I still feel very busy.”
"It's precisely because I'm busy right now that I need to rest properly during my breaks. And after filming, I also need to rest for a while before entering the promotional period."
Sheng Hanyu made a plan: no matter how Ye Sanqing planned his vacation, he would at least make an appointment with him first.
Make your presence known!
He always felt that if he didn't do this, Ye Sanqing would probably just go on a trip without saying a word, or casually mention it to him the day before he left...
“That’s true. If we follow the schedule…” Ye Sanqing thought for a moment, “it won’t be finished until October. But I don’t know what kind of work will be done after that. It’s still a long way from October, so I can’t say what my original plan was.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it. Since this is our job, it’s inherently unpredictable. First of all, it would be great if we could just finish filming according to plan without any unexpected problems. Then, in winter…” Sheng Hanyu pondered, “How about we go see the aurora borealis or go bear hunting?”
"A bear? Is it okay to fight one?"
"In some places, hunting is legal; it's a way to control the wild bear population. Otherwise, if they were allowed to reproduce freely, it would cause a bear plague. What I mean is that it's also a good opportunity to practice shooting."
"Okay! I'll go!" Ye Sanqing became interested upon hearing this. "What else can we do?"
"You can also catch fish. Fish can be caught in specific seasons," Sheng Hanyu said seriously.
“…I have a feeling that you still want to go fishing in the end,” Ye Sanqing said, looking at him.
"Of course, I also have some new fishing spots that I haven't unlocked yet! How about we go out for a spin, hunt bears, fish, and we can even share the spoils with everyone."
Sheng Hanyu knew Ye Sanqing would be interested in this kind of thing; her eyes were practically sparkling, and she couldn't wait to enter the hunting season.
Indeed, it is quite difficult for someone born in a time of war to adapt to peace.
But it's okay, he can go along with her, as long as she's happy.
"Well, let's finish filming first, and then coordinate to free up about... a little over two weeks, that would be best."
"Okay, I'll write it down first."
Ye Sanqing flipped through his phone's calendar and suddenly asked curiously, "Isn't it your birthday?"
"Oh, yes, you still remember that?"
Sheng Hanyu had only mentioned it casually during a chat, but she didn't expect Ye Sanqing to remember it.
"Didn't you give me a birthday present? Of course I should reciprocate. Why do you sound like you're not planning on celebrating?" Ye Sanqing asked.
"No, but we're filming a movie, and I don't want to make a big fuss about it..."
Ye Sanqing looked at him for a while, "You have other ideas?"
"Sigh. Actually, I think..." Sheng Hanyu glanced around to make sure no one else was there, then lowered her voice and said, "There's nothing to celebrate, because when I think about what the real situation is, I..."
"Um……"
He didn't explain it clearly, but Ye Sanqing already understood.
Sheng Hanyu's true intention was not to celebrate, and the reason was not because they were filming. In other words, even if they weren't filming, he probably would have let it go.
Considering his rebirth, his presence in the game world, and other such circumstances, it's already quite remarkable that he doesn't doubt the meaning of his existence.
“But I think we should still celebrate,” Ye Sanqing said after thinking for a while. “Regardless of the truth, at least you exist in this world. I think that alone is worth celebrating.”
"Is that what you think?" Sheng Hanyu rarely showed a somewhat wavering expression.
"Yes, existence itself is something to celebrate."
