Chapter 224 Born with Dementia?
"An ancient tomb?"
Huang Jing was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then immediately asked, "Dr. Li, are the friends you mentioned from the inspection team from Jiangcheng?"
Li Yi nodded. "That's right! She's a professor at Jiang University."
"Oh, this is wonderful!" Huang Jing slapped her thigh excitedly. "Dr. Li, could you help me make the connection and introduce me to your friend?"
Why does this guy suddenly want to get to know Wen Rui?
Li Yi was puzzled when Song Yaqing, who was standing next to him, took the initiative to explain: "Little Li, the movie we are filming now happens to be a tomb raiding movie."
A cluster of ancient tombs was discovered here recently, and Director Huang had been wanting to film some scenes there, but the experts wouldn't allow it.
That's it!
Upon hearing this, Li Yi finally understood.
"Sister Song, the friend I was talking about earlier is Sister Wen. She happened to be here this time too. However, I'm not sure if Sister Wen can make the decision on this matter."
Song Yaqing was taken aback upon hearing this.
Because she had a good relationship with Wang Tao, she also knew Wen Rui, but the two had never met.
So she had no idea that Wen Rui was also there.
Li Yi turned to Huang Jing and said, "How about this, let's go find Sister Wen first and see if we can make an exception for this."
Huang Jing nodded quickly, "Okay."
So the four of them set off immediately.
Wen Rui's archaeological team also lived in Dazhuang Village.
However, they were staying in the lower team, while the crew members were staying in the upper team.
Fortunately, the two brigades were not far apart.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Li Yi and his group arrived at a large courtyard when they were stopped by a middle-aged man in his thirties wearing glasses.
"Why are you here again?"
The other party seemed to know Huang Jing and Song Yaqing, so as soon as they met, they frowned and spoke rather rudely, "Didn't I tell you that this ancient tomb is very valuable and photography is not allowed?"
Judging from his clothes and appearance, the other person was probably not a native of the village.
Since they're not from the village, they must be from the archaeological team.
Li Yi explained with a smile, "Hello, I'm Wen Rui's friend. I just happened to be passing by, so I stopped by to see her."
The bespectacled man immediately scoffed, "Hmph! People like you, calling yourselves friends with Professor Wen? You can't even come up with a plausible reason for lying."
"I really am Sister Wen's friend. If you don't believe me, go ask her. By the way, my name is Li Yi..."
"I don't care what your name is!" the bespectacled man said impatiently. "Now, please leave immediately!"
Seeing his attitude, Li Yi was also somewhat displeased.
However, since the other party was an archaeological team, he couldn't directly lose his temper.
After thinking for a moment, Li Yi simply took out his phone to check if there was a signal and then called Wen Rui.
However, just as he took out his phone, a figure walked out of the house.
The other person glanced at Li Yi standing at the door and was immediately stunned.
"Little Li!"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Li Yi subconsciously looked up.
Sure enough, Wen Rui's stunningly beautiful face immediately came into view.
Li Yi smiled and shook his phone. "Great, Sister Wen, I was just about to call you."
Wen Rui had already walked over, a faint smile appearing on her cold and beautiful face. "What are you doing here, kid?"
"Sister Wang's pharmaceutical factory is about to go public, and Sister Song happens to be filming here, so I came over to have her film a scene..."
After explaining, Li Yi introduced Song Yaqing and Huang Jing, who were standing next to him.
Although it was their first meeting, Wenrui knew that Song Yaqing and Wang Tao had a good relationship.
After listening to Li Yi's introduction, she nodded slightly and greeted Song Yaqing and Huang Jing, "Alright, you two come in first and we'll talk later."
The bespectacled man standing to the side noticed that Li Yi indeed knew Wen Rui.
Moreover, Wen Rui actually smiled slightly after seeing Li Yi, but her face immediately darkened.
However, he dared not lose his temper in front of Wen Rui.
Watching helplessly as Li Yi and the others walked into the courtyard with Wen Rui, the bespectacled man could only suppress his anger.
The entire compound was very spacious. After Wen Rui's introduction, Li Yi learned that this was the village committee of Dazhuang Village, which had been specially set aside for the archaeological team.
There were many people coming and going in the courtyard, and everyone looked at Li Yi and the others that Wen Rui had brought in with curiosity.
However, no one stepped forward to ask.
"By the way, Sister Wen, shouldn't your archaeological team be staying in the mountains all the time? Why are there so many people here?" Li Yi glanced at the people in the courtyard and asked casually.
Wen Rui explained, "Like them, I was only responsible for studying the unearthed artifacts and data. The actual excavation work was handled by another team."
"Oh, I see."
Li Yi didn't know much about archaeology, so after asking a casual question, he didn't say anything more.
After the group entered the house, Wenrui poured everyone a glass of water and then sat down to continue chatting.
After learning the purpose of Li Yi bringing Huang Jing here, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "The entire ancient tomb complex has not been completely excavated yet. If you want to take pictures, you can only do so on the outer perimeter."
Huang Jing quickly said, "It's alright, the outer perimeter is enough, and we only need to take a few simple shots to supplement the footage."
Wen Rui nodded upon hearing this. "If that's all there is to it, then it's easy to handle. I'll talk to Lao Wang from the excavation team later and then take you there."
"That's great, thank you Professor Wen!" Huang Jing was overjoyed.
As they were talking, a quarrel and shouting suddenly came from outside.
Wen Rui turned her head and glanced outside, then frowned and said, "You all sit down for a moment, I'll go see what's going on outside."
"It's alright, let's go take a look together."
Li Yi, along with Song Yaqing and Huang Jing, also got up and walked outside.
After coming out of the house, the group immediately saw a middle-aged woman standing in the middle of the yard.
The other person was holding a toddler who was a little over two years old and was apologizing to someone.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
"Do you know how important our things are? If they get damaged, can you afford to pay for them?" the bespectacled man persisted.
The middle-aged woman looked embarrassed and kept bowing, saying, "Expert Gao, it's all my fault! I promise I won't take good care of the child next time."
The bespectacled man initially wanted to reprimand the other person, but seeing Wen Rui approaching, he could only glare at her resentfully and mutter, "You're really something, knowing full well your child is born mentally challenged, yet you still don't take good care of him!"
Born with dementia?
Li Yi didn't take it seriously at first, but when he looked at the child, he immediately frowned.
