Chapter 87  : Angel

“In the past, the Fang family would make dumplings during the Chinese New Year. Then they would sit in front of the television and watch the Spring Festival Gala. But they did not allow me to join them.”

“During Chinese New Year, I would have to remain in the basement. The basement was dark and cold, so I had to huddle under a blanket to stay warm. My Chinese New Year’s dinner would consist of a few stale buns and some pickles, which were a few days old.”

“If there were left-over dumplings the next day, they would only give me a few bites.”

When Mo Yu heard Fang Liu’s words, his gaze turned cold. At the same time, his heart ached for Fang Liu.

There were no extra stools in the backyard, so the children held their bowls and ate while standing up. Their tiny faces were filled with the joy of the Chinese New Year.

Fang Liu had a discussion with the foundation and decided to recruit a few more volunteers to help the children make dumplings for the Chinese New Year celebrations.

After the meal, Fang Liu and the others prepared to leave. The administrator decided to lead them to the intersection before they left. As they were about to take their leave, the children looked at them with reluctance and overwhelming sadness in their eyes.

“When will you come and visit us again, Big Sister?” A little girl with ponytails sniffled and looked at Fang Liu expectantly.

Fang Liu smiled and said, “I’ll try to visit you guys as often as I can. You have to study hard and behave yourselves. Don’t cause too much trouble for the administrator, okay?”

The other foundation volunteers also said, “We’ll come to visit you guys too. We’ll bring over some more toys and clothes. You should quickly go back to the house. It’s cold out here.”

Seeing that the children had safely returned to the house, Fang Liu turned around and left.

After a busy day at the orphanage, Fang Liu and Mo Yu went home to rest for the night. On the next day, they rushed to the Hengdian World Studio. They needed to finish filming the second part of the promotional video today.

When the two of them arrived, they saw that green screens surrounded the studio. The camera crew was also prepared to start filming.

The script was pretty straightforward this time. Fang Liu only needed to jump down from a five-meter-high platform slowly. A crew member strapped a safety harness onto Fang Liu. It was to help her land safely onto the ground. The film crew carefully took safety measures so that even the pregnant Fang Liu would be safe to do this minor stunt.

Mo Yu initially disapproved of this plan because he was worried about his pregnant wife. He also thought that Fang Liu would be afraid to jump down from such a high platform.

However, it was Fang Liu who persuaded him. She told Mo Yu that she was not a coward. Since Fang Liu had agreed to be involved in the promotional video, she felt that she should do her best to complete all her tasks perfectly.

Fang Liu was brought up to the elevated platform by one of the crew members. The platform was only five meters high. Although she felt a little dizzy when she looked down, she wasn’t too afraid.

The crew member attached some more safety harnesses onto Fang Liu’s body and checked them several times before helping her to put on a costume.

In this scene, Fang Liu would represent an angel who appears from the sky. She wore a long white dress with a pair of large feathered wings on her back. Her long hair flowed, and she had a benevolent and loving smile on her face.

After the crew member put the large wings onto Fang Liu’s back, he could not help but sigh, “You look stunning. If angels truly exist, they should look like you.”

Fang Liu blushed as she wasn’t used to receiving compliments. She just lowered her head in embarrassment.

Mo Yu waited for Fang Liu at the landing spot with his eyes focused on her. A sense of nervousness and worry appeared on his face.

Fang Liu smiled at Mo Yu comfortingly so that he would not worry about her.

The film director saw Fang Liu’s extremely gentle smile through the camera lens and felt that the scene’s atmosphere had already been fulfilled. Nonetheless, he immediately clapped his hands excitedly and yelled, “Action!”

Fang Liu proceeded to jump off the platform. The safety harness around her body instantly tightened. Although it was slightly uncomfortable, it kept Fang Liu safe.

Fang Liu spread her arms, and the large wings on her back opened up. Her long hair flowed in the wind, and her white dress fluttered majestically.

Fang Liu looked graceful. Even the surrounding crew members were in shock and awe. The crew member in charge of the lighting almost forgot to do his job.

Fang Liu gradually approached Mo Yu from the air. This beautiful moment resembled the illusion of Fang Liu floating gratefully in the air toward the love of her life.

Mo Yu watched as the beautiful Fang Liu descended and floated toward him. His heart began to beat faster. Mo Yu stepped forward, welcoming his angelic wife back into his arms. But he soon saw fear appear on Fang Liu’s face.

“Watch out!”
