Yan Qingsi never changed her name or her face. The things that happened in the past were not a secret. Once she stepped into the public spotlight, those skeletons would be dragged out of the closet sooner or later. She needed to be ready.
The filming of Beauty’s Rival in Palace was almost done. The promotional campaign should be starting soon which meant no more hiding for her.
It was high time she revealed her return to the Yan family.
Leng Ran leaned over and accidentally saw the content of Yan Qingsi’s phone.
“Miss Qingsi, you fancy King Jin as well?”
Yan Qingsi nodded. “Yes. I quite like his voice.”
“Me too. There have been rumors about King Jin having a girlfriend.”
“Mm, I saw that…”
“Eh, this photo. Why does it seem so familiar?”
“Qingsi, Leng Ran, get ready for the next shot.” The voice of Director Cai traveled to them.
They stopped their chatting and quickly got back to work.
…
Yan Qingsi wanted the reveal of her return to the Yan family and everyone else to be dramatic. The opportunity came two days later—the debut press conference of The Scent of Her. It was a live event with a lot of publicity. The director, producer, and the main cast were all attending.
The initial lead actress was Hu Minxi but after Yue Tingfeng’s intervention, Yan Qingsi took the role. The director had informed Miss Mai to get Yan Qingsi ready.
In a way, Yan Qingsi stole Hu Minxi’s role but she had no time to feel bad about it. The entertainment industry was a dog eat dog world.
The Scent of Her was a period drama with heavy male roles as it depicted the sufferings during wartimes. The movie had good values all around. There were few female roles in the movie. Even as the lead actress, Yan Qingsi had very little screen time. However, no matter how short her screen time, she was still the lead actress—a rose among the thorns. She would be the highlight of the press conference.
The debut press conference was set up to be huge. The few actors that were joining were big names in the industry.
With such a solid cast and box office reception, the collective number of fans attending could cover the circumference of Earth twice.
Yan Qingsi and Miss Mai both agreed that this would be the best chance for her public debut.
With that, Miss Mai focused all her energy on preparing Yan Qingsi’s battle dress to make an impact.
There had been no contact from Yue Tingfeng in the past few days. Yan Qingsi gathered he might have really been pissed off. She had no time to entertain him anyways with the filming and press conference.
…
Yue Tingfeng’s life had been incredibly normal for the past few days. He went to work, got off, and occasionally went drinking in Jade Orchid Pavilion. Boring, boring, capital letters BORING.
No one knew what he was frustrated about. Jiang Lai felt that he had been very secretive lately.
Outside, the weather was beautiful. The sound of Jiang Lai’s voice registered in Yue Tingfeng’s head but his mind was elsewhere, thinking about random stuff. All the random thoughts were flying around in his head but the conclusion always came down to one name, Yan Qingsi.
Yue Tingfeng smiled suddenly which frightened Jiang Lai, who quickly stopped his sentence.
An evil smirk appeared on Yue Tingfeng’s face as he muttered to himself, “I’ll let you rest for now.”
