Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1250: Scumbag

With the end of episode 11, the hotel room was equally silent.

"What a scumbag!" Feng Qing Rou was the first one to speak aloud, her eyes shifting to Xu Feng.

"What a good Feng Qiu Huang being used in such a manner." Zhao Xin clicked her tongue and agreed with Feng Qing Rou’s statement.

Who didn’t know that the poem was actually lyrics from a man going by Sima Xiangru to woo the wealthy and beautiful Zhuo Wenjun?

While these two felt Xu Feng was a through-and-through scumbag, Carmen was busy thinking about another aspect.

"Feng, don’t you think this episode 11 is way too long?" She turned to him and inquired.

"It’s about 10-15 minutes running time." Xu Feng replied.

As soon as this topic was raised, both Feng Qing Rou and Zhao Xin also came to a realization.

Indeed, they had been so focused that they had noticed this episode actually ran for a long time.

Moreover, there were more characters being introduced, with the significant character being the female emperor portrayed by Evelyn.

One must admit that Evelyn’s costume and acting were indeed impeccable.

She was no worse than the other main actresses in stealing the scene despite very limited screentime.

But that wasn’t the point!

"Wait, why do you sound so normal about the episode duration?" Zhao Xin raised the question.

If she recalled properly, each episode was supposed to be around 2 minutes.

With all eyes locked on Xu Feng, he could only answer their curiosity.

"I’ve discussed things with the editing team to have an episode duration to last around 10-15 minutes after every 10 episodes." He explained.

Since the episode they watched was precisely after 10 episodes, the duration was naturally very long and immersive.

However, the main reason for this special type of episode was that Xu Feng realized the editing team was filled with headaches in deciding which scenes to include.

Since it was nearly impossible for them to condense the scenes into 2 minutes, he granted them some leniency.

This was also why the editing team suddenly became productive and edited 30 episodes in one go.

"You should have informed me in advance." Carmen was displeased with the fact that she was kept in the dark. Had she known episode 11 was this long, then she would have charged Zhao Xin and Feng Qing Rou a hefty price.

For episode 11 to have 15 minutes, that was equivalent to almost 8 episodes.

8 episodes equate to 24 dollars in terms of their pricing. To have given them 24 dollars’ worth of footage for free pained Carmen deeply.

How could she have allowed this kind of situation?

"My fault, Carmen." Xu Feng smiled bitterly.

He didn’t plan on concealing the matter to begin with. He simply forgot about the command he issued, given that there were so many things occupying his mind.

"Hmph, those two were right. You really are a scumbag." Carmen clicked her tongue, clearly expressing her dissatisfaction.

’Oh dear, am I still going to be alive?’ Xu Feng swallowed a mouthful of saliva. To think that not one, not two, but a whopping three women in total in this room currently perceived him as a scumbag. Such a situation was extremely dangerous to his life.

Thankfully, he avoided the plight of being thrown at with some rotten fruits and eggs.

"Anyway, are you still going to watch further?" Carmen cleverly changed the topic and inquired.

"Yes—"

Before Feng Qing Rou could reply, Zhao Xin cut her off effectively.

"No need." She rejected the suggestion. "It’s getting quite late, and I still have some business left to do. Qing Rou also has to work on her guild in the Divine World, so we won’t intrude further."

"Eh?" Feng Qing Rou frowned and wanted to keep watching the next episode. It was finally getting exciting with multiple characters being introduced.

"Did you forget about your guild’s raiding time?" Zhao Xin whispered softly.

"Ah, the raid!" Feng Qing Rou’s body jolted slightly. She had nearly forgotten about the scheduled raid that contained one of her required materials to upgrade her personal growth-type weapon.

Without hesitation, she quickly stood up and excused herself.

The speed at which she used to leave was alarming.

"Is she the Flash?" Carmen twitched her brows slightly.

"I’ll also excuse myself." Zhao Xin stood up with a calm composure and said softly.

But before leaving, she made sure to warn Xu Feng. "If you happen to meet Kai later on, do me a favor and give him a good smack. Otherwise, I’ll personally do it myself. Plus, I’ll still hold my rights to throw these rotten fruits at you."

"Rest assured, I’ll keep it in mind." Xu Feng nodded with a solemn expression.

This wasn’t called a betrayal of brotherhood or anything.

But a matter of survival!

Zhao Kai was used to being bullied by his sister anyway. There was no need to have himself implicated along the way.

Zhao Xin trusted his character and nodded.

"If Kai isn’t punished, then you would be the one." She gave her final remarks before leaving the hotel room.

Sometime later, Carmen turned off the television, having lost interest in watching the short drama further.

She already knew the plot, so why would she want to rewatch them again?

"Are you close to level 70 yet?" She asked in concern.

"Mhmm, I’m at 69% on level 69."

"69% on level 69??!"

Carmen was exasperated by this accurate-like number. She pursed her lips and looked at him with a weird expression.

"What are you staring at me for?" Xu Feng clicked his tongue and crossed his arms.

"You sure love the number 69." Carmen rolled her eyes.

"Ahem, so what if I like it or not like it?"

"Well, if you like it, then we can re-enact the scene." She suddenly teased and swirled her fingers around his chest.

"Who’s the real scumbag now?" Xu Feng hissed and wanted to curse at her for making such a provocative action. As if he would be a fool to believe she was being serious.

"Stop trying to copy those three’s actions and snap back to reality. I don’t like these types of teasing, and you’re not this kind of person either. Just be yourself."
