The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 481

Rong Dai stared directly into his eyes, and in that moment, the jumbled thoughts weighing on her heart seemed to vanish completely.

The worst-case scenario is just that. Since it's an outcome she can already anticipate, why should she be afraid?

"Mm."

She nodded, and the anxiety in her heart gradually dissipated.

Seeing her emotions stabilize, Huo Shao Ting breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll make breakfast. After we eat, we can start shooting and then go visit the gravesite, okay?"

Huo Shao Ting cupped her face and gently asked.

Rong Dai nodded, and Huo Shao Ting got up to prepare breakfast while she remained in bed for a few more minutes before getting up herself.

The children in the village were warm-hearted, and they had brought many rare and delicious treats for the couple early in the morning.

After having breakfast and changing into casual clothes, the couple was ready to begin filming.

Since it was a documentary, there was no script, allowing the couple to improvise.

Rong Dai and Huo Shao Ting took a tour around the village, observing livestock, buildings, vegetable gardens, and finally visiting the school to interview students and teachers.

Because there was no script for the filming and the village wasn't large, the process wasn't too demanding, and it was completed within two days.

"You had another nightmare last night?"

Lu Nianzhi had come over early and couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she saw Rong Dai's pale complexion.

Rong Dai rubbed her temples and nodded. Since arriving in this village, she had been having frequent nightmares, but strangely, she couldn't remember anything from the dreams once she woke up.

"Now that the filming is done, I think it's better for us to return home early."

"You're delicate and weak. If anything else happens, I, your gold-medal assistant, might have to resign."

Lu Nianzhi looked at her with concern, handing her a glass of warm water and sitting on the edge of the bed.

Rong Dai took a few sips of water, feeling a bit better, and as she placed the cup down, her gaze met Lu Nianzhi's.

She looked at Lu Nianzhi and sighed inwardly.

Lu Nianzhi was perceptive, and she must have sensed that something was off with Rong Dai these past few days.

"Nianzhi, if you want to ask something, go ahead."

Lu Nianzhi stared at her for several seconds, her gaze hesitant for a long time before she let out a sigh and said, "Forget it. This is your private matter, and I shouldn't pry too much."

"I just wanted to tell you that when you encounter difficulties, think about the people around you. Don't try to bear it all alone."

Rong Dai's heart warmed, and she smiled and nodded.

"Huo Shao Ting mentioned going mountain climbing with you. Can your body handle it?"

Lu Nianzhi changed the subject, returning to her work mode.

Rong Dai knew this was just an excuse Huo Shao Ting had come up with, considering that only a few people knew about the investigation by Expert Huang.

"I can handle it. It's good to get some exercise. If I sleep deeply at night, I won't have nightmares."

She lied and then got up to change into her hiking gear. Lu Nianzhi didn't feel like moving around and stayed in the village.

Huo Shao Ting, Rong Dai, Zhang Assistant, and the two bodyguards ventured into the mountains.

The mountain path was rugged and muddy, and Rong Dai stumbled twice along the way, ending up covered in mud.

"It's just up ahead."

Zhang Assistant walked ahead and could see Huang Fang and others waiting on top of the hill from a distance.

Rong Dai stopped in her tracks, feeling a sudden wrenching pain in her heart. Intense palpitations made her vision go black for a moment.

"If you're not feeling well, we can go back," Huo Shao Ting swiftly held her, his heart aching as he saw her pale and in pain.

Rong Dai stubbornly shook her head. "I'm just a little tired. I'll rest for a bit, and it'll be fine."

Huo Shao Ting's face turned cold and grim. He carefully protected her as they rested in place.
