In the past, when she provoked Jun Shiling like this, Jun Shiling could instantly transform into a wolf. To Xia Wanyuan’s surprise, however, it was useless today. After Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, Jun Shiling still did not react.
“Hey, why are you ignoring me?” Xia Wanyuan pointed at Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling finally looked at Xia Wanyuan again. “No.”
“…” Xia Wanyuan smiled until her eyes curved. “Do you not love me anymore?”
“Hmph.” Jun Shiling did not speak.
“I think I have a fever again.” Xia Wanyuan covered her forehead and exclaimed softly.
“Stop pretending. I’ve taken your temperature every hour.” Jun Shiling mercilessly exposed her.
“Alright.” Xia Wanyuan stopped talking and leaned on Jun Shiling’s shoulder.
Jun Shiling waited for a while but did not hear her speak. He reached out to raise her face and his heart tightened.
Xia Wanyuan’s cold eyes were filled with tears, like flowers that had been wet by the wind and rain, making one pity her. “You don’t love me anymore.”
“… Your acting skills are pretty good. You’re even acting with me, right?” Jun Shiling smiled helplessly. He knew that Xia Wanyuan was pretending, but he still could not bear to be ruthless. He leaned forward and kissed Xia Wanyuan. “Alright, be good.”
Jun Shiling gently touched it twice and was about to retreat, but Xia Wanyuan took her hands out of the blanket and wrapped them around Jun Shiling’s neck, taking the initiative to press it.
The blanket on Xia Wanyuan slid to the ground. Jun Shiling removed his jacket and wrapped Xia Wanyuan in his arms. His nose was filled with Xia Wanyuan’s fragrance. Jun Shiling’s heart raced and he retreated not long after. “Alright, you’ve just recovered. Go and rest.”
He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself later.
Xia Wanyuan looked up, her lips moist. Her eyes were bright as she leaned over and bit Jun Shiling’s lower lip.
“…” Jun Shiling sighed in his heart. as she took the initiative again. This woman was really torturing me even more.
Even though she had already recovered, Jun Shiling still helped her push away everything.
After resting at home for more than half a month, Xia Wanyuan felt that she was living the legendary retirement life. She was so free that she was about to grow mushrooms.
After Shen Xiu repeatedly confirmed that she had recovered, Xia Wanyuan could finally return to her normal life.
In this half a month that was she isolated from the world, there were not many changes in the outside world. However, the “Moon As Frost” television drama had entered the final stage.
When it was launched, “Moon As Frost” occupied a fifth of the market share of “Above the Moon Palace”.
By the time the two dramas entered the end at the same time, the data of “Above the Moon Palace” could no longer compare to “Moon As Frost”.
It was not an exaggeration to say that “Moon As Frost” was the biggest dark horse of the year. Whether it was the viewership ratings of cable television, the number of views on the Internet, reputation, and discussion topics, they had completely left all the television dramas of the year behind.
They left everyone in the dust and looked down on everyone.
“Moon As Frost” was originally predicted by industry insiders to be a failed investment by the Jun Corporation. In the end, this investment made the Jun Corporation rich, and the yield made industry insiders envious.
At this moment, all kinds of analysis articles and industry papers appeared. Everyone tried to interpret the Jun Corporation’s far-sighted investment standards and strategic vision from all aspects.
Seeing all kinds of strange guesses, Chen Yun, who had hidden behind his achievements and fame, chuckled. Who would have thought that there was no investment strategy at all? He just wanted to dote on his wife and conveniently became an investment legend.
At the end of the year, various rankings began to be selected. What made industry insiders not know whether to laugh or cry was that as long as there was a ranking with Xia Wanyuan, the others basically had no competitiveness.
Xia Wanyuan rarely posted on Weibo to manage her popularity. Other than television dramas, she had not appeared for more than a month. However, her fanbase was like a prairie fire, forever maintaining a high-speed growth model, and their enthusiasm was extremely high.
Furthermore, Xia Wanyuan’s fanbase was the strangest and most diverse in the entertainment industry. The fan base spanned the entertainment industry, zither, Go, calligraphy, and painting worlds. The two-dimensional world and three-dimensional world had perfectly integrated with her.
With a huge number of fans and an explosive reputation,
On the day of the ending of “Moon As Frost”, the top ten topics on Weibo were all related to “Moon As Frost”. The entire Internet was discussing this well-produced television drama.
For a long time, the “crude” image left in people’s hearts by domestic dramas had been reversed by “Moon As Frost”. In China, there was a “national fever”.
In just one month at the end of the year, there were nearly 20 more domestic dramas.
[Ahhh, I can’t bear for it to end. Why is time passing so quickly? I can’t bear to leave Moon as Frost.]
[ Boohoo, my Qin Manyue, my Chu Pingjiang, I feel terrible. One went to Shaanxi, and the other wants to leave the continent. Why can’t the people who love each other be together? ]
[Please don’t be tragic. I heard that the ending of the television series is different from the novel. I’m afraid something bad will happen.]
On the side of the city path that had been destroyed by the flames of war in the past, the weeping willow began to spit out green. A breeze blew across the sparkling lake, and a fish jumped out of the lake.
“Take care.” The teacher who used to wear a long robe was now wearing a black trench coat. Under the brim of the hat was a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes.
Looking at Mr. Chu, who would blush when she touched him back then, Qin Manyue’s eyes reddened. “I’ve always wanted to ask you a question.”
“I feel guilty, but I don’t regret it.” As if knowing what Qin Manyue wanted to say, Chu Pingjiang stopped talking.
Chu Pingjiang, who was now a high-ranking general of the enemy camp, did not dare to look at Qin Manyue in the eye. Instead, his gaze landed on the lake for a long time.
He felt guilty that he had burned Qin Manyue’s family to death in the fire to raise funds.
He felt guilty for personally pushing the proudest Red Rose of Shanghai into the refugee army and letting her enter the mountains of Shaanxi, the heart of the enemy camp.
He felt guilty for using Qin Manyue’s kindness and true feelings to kill her comrades and obtain confidential documents, causing her to fall into a desperate situation.
However, he did not regret it. He had the faith in his bones. He had his own camp of loyalty. Between love and righteousness, he chose righteousness.
“I understand.” Qin Manyue, who had once stirred up the entire Shanghai beach in a cheongsam, was now dressed in plain clothes and had light makeup on. However, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes had a glow that made people unable to look straight at her.
The two of them stood quietly, and the progress of the television drama flowed quietly.
For two whole minutes, there were only two silent figures looking at the lake in the television camera. There was only the faint sound of the wind.
At this moment, all the words seemed to be pale. In such a lively spring scene, the audience felt immense sorrow.
“Alright, it’s time for me to leave. You’ve won. In an hour, I should leave the continent forever,” Chu Pingjiang finally said, his gaze landing on Qin Manyue.
“Aren’t you afraid that I set you up by coming here alone?” Qin Manyue looked straight at Chu Pingjiang.
“No.” Chu Pingjiang was very confident. “I know you better than anyone. You’re really kind. Even though you’ve become the best killer, you still have sunlight in your bones.”
After saying this, Chu Pingjiang adjusted his hat. “Take care.”
Seeing that Chu Pingjiang was about to leave, Qin Manyue’s tears surged out. “Have you ever loved me?”
Chu Pingjiang stopped for a moment and smiled. “Love? I only love my faith.”
With that, Chu Pingjiang left.
Before he could walk more than a hundred meters, a gunshot sounded on the ground. The always straight spine in front of her fell quietly in front of Qin Manyue.
At this moment, Qin Manyue tightened her grip on the gun in her hand. The gun mist dissipated in front of her eyes. Qin Manyue walked forward expressionlessly, faster and faster. In the end, she ran to Chu Pingjiang’s side.
Seeing Qin Manyue, Chu Pingjiang looked relieved for a moment. Qin Manyue almost thought that she had seen wrongly.
“You’re wrong. I’m not kind. I have my beliefs too.” Qin Manyue clenched her fists tightly.
Chu Pingjiang smiled. Qin Manyue knew him for so long, but she had never seen that smile.
She had seen his shy, emotional, cold, and heartless appearance.
The only thing she had never seen was such a warm smile. It was as if all the restraints had been cut off. It was like a light leaf that was finally about to fly into the distance.
“Miss Qin.” Chu Pingjiang’s blood was flowing rapidly. He almost gritted his teeth and squeezed out the last sentence. “Take care.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Pingjiang seemed to be unable to withstand it anymore and closed his eyes. Forever, he closed his elegant and cold eyes.
Chu Pingjiang’s hand finally slid down, revealing what he had been holding in his palm.
It was a small sheepskin glove.
Qin Manyue recalled their first meeting. At that time, she was in the car and smiled. “Sir, please help me pick up my gloves.”
That was their first meeting.
The people from the organization came over and congratulated her excitedly. “You’ve done a great job this time!!”
Initially, everyone was worried that Qin Manyue would not dare to do anything due to her relationship with Chu Pingjiang. They did not expect her to be so decisive.
Qin Manyue was not as happy as she had imagined. “Can you help me bury him in the suburbs?”
Initially, no one was willing. After all, Chu Pingjiang was a high-ranking general of the enemy camp and had harmed countless of their comrades. However, on account of Qin Manyue, everyone reluctantly carried him to the suburbs.
The subsequent burial work was done by Qin Manyue alone. Her teammates had long left. At this moment, it began to drizzle, and the rain wet Chu Pingjiang’s grave.
Qin Manyue stood in front of the grave. There was no expression on her face, but her eyes made one feel silent.
Qin Manyue touched the gun in her pocket.
Before she came, she had unloaded the bullets inside. Chu Pingjiang was right. In the end, she still could not do it.
However, the last bullet was real.
During this period, only Chu Pingjiang had approached her pocket.
The rain became heavier, causing Qin Manyue’s eyes to turn red.
In the city, the red flag was raised high. Everyone’s faces were filled with excitement and joy.
Outside the city, in a lonely grave, a figure in the rain.
The entire series ended.
The television drama had already ended, but the comments could not calm down for a long time.
[I’m really crying. Chu Pingjiang changed to the real bullet!! He used his life to pave the way for Qin Manyue in the future!]
[ This ending, oh my god, it doesn’t seem wrong for them to stand in their own position, but time has made them suffer. ]
[In that era, there was so much helplessness and separation. I suddenly felt so happy to be able to lie in bed and watch television dramas and eat potato chips.]
This ending, which was completely different from the novel’s ending, did not make the fans of the original novel angry that their favorite work had been magically modified.
Because of this ending, the entire novel’s structure rose again.
[We fans of the original work have never been unreasonable people. This adaptation makes me, a fan of the original work, want to be a slave for the entire production team for a hundred years!!! Take all my tears away!!]
Xia Wanyuan and Yan Ci’s perfect performance of the ending of the television drama raised the discussion of the entire drama to a new peak.
There was clearly no hysterical scene, but it reaped the tears of countless audience.
Three days after the television drama ended, heavy news spread in the entertainment industry.
Xia Wanyuan was successfully nominated as the “Best Actress” of the annual “Prynne Award” once every five years!!
Although she was only nominated and had yet to be selected, she was already the youngest actress in history to participate in the Best Actress competition.
