At noon, Su Yanyi treated the entire cast to a meal, an extremely delicate Japanese cuisine. The crew members praised Her Majesty the Queen for her might, even taking pictures of the meal and uploading them to the internet. Accompanying the photos were a bunch of comments like "Her Majesty the Queen is treating us," "The Queen is so loving," "Please come more often, Your Majesty." This made many fans envious and wishing to join the crew. The perks were just too good— not only could they see Lord Best Actor, but they also got to savor the exquisite food provided by Her Majesty the Queen. People were truly envious!
This time, Jiang Xiaobin also got smarter. He immediately posted several photos on Best Actor Qin’s microblog. Most of them were of Queen Su and Lord Best Actor together, eating and such. It was nothing unusual, but it gave off a rather warm feeling, which made the fans both envious and jealous.
In truth, not all fans of Best Actor Qin supported his relationship with Su Yanyi. A small portion of female fans wished their idol to remain single, as that allowed more room for fantasy. However, such fans were very few, and they had only protested a bit at the beginning before gradually accepting Su Yanyi’s presence.
It can’t be denied that Su Yanyi was a presence hard to criticize. Although her personality was a bit cold and her methods a bit ruthless, that didn’t stop her from shining bright with attractive qualities.
With an extraordinary family background, exceptional abilities, striking looks, and the necessary emotional elements, even the pickiest fans couldn’t claim she didn’t match up to Best Actor Qin, the idol of the entertainment industry. Therefore, their blessings for the couple grew more and more, and they quickly became the entertainment industry’s recognized perfect match.
In the afternoon, the crew moved to another area of the mountain villa to continue filming. Qin Jiran still had two scenes to shoot, one of which was a confrontation with the female lead. However, it wasn’t anything romantic. It was just him saving the female lead from a criminal, and at most, he only grabbed her arm.
The theme of "Power Struggle" was still crime and investigation, without much emphasis on romantic narratives. The most intimate scenes were some mild flirtations, and even hand-holding occurred during escape scenarios as a form of mutual aid and support. As such, Qin Jiran had a particular fondness for this script. He loved Su Yanyi—both emotionally and physically—and only wished to be in contact with her. The thought of touching other women was utterly repellent to him. Hence, even on set, he was reluctant to engage in too much contact. Before Yanyi had agreed to be with him, he acted this way, and now that Yanyi had decided to give their relationship a try, he was even less willing to have any connection with other women, even for a film. Perhaps this was also a kind of psychological compulsion.
Therefore, when Guo Zekai considered adding more romantic scenes to the film, he was promptly rejected by Qin Jiran without a second thought. However, it did not affect the quality of the movie. Qin Jiran’s neat and impressive physical actions, the bewildering progression of events, and the plot’s dramatic twists were enough to make this movie a classic crime thriller.
"Get out of here quickly. Once you’re out, call the police and let them protect you!" Qin Jiran, bloody and sitting on the ground, took a bullet in both his shoulder and ankle, looking very disheveled. The female lead he had rescued obviously fared much better, yet her face was covered in panic.
"I won’t go. I’ll stay with you!" Fan Linger, playing the female lead, still looked panicked as she gazed at Qin Jiran, but she also showed adoration and determination.
Women are sometimes such a mysterious and contradictory creature. They may often seem weaker than men, but when faced with love, they are incredibly likely to be stronger than anyone, willing to live and die for love.
