By her sickbed, Huai Yan held Di Xuan’s hands. “My dear prince, please be strong...” Her voice was weak but firm. She tried her best to comfort the man before her.

Yun Jing, played by Zhuo Ran, was angry and envious when she found out Di Xuan had gone to find Huai Yan...
The actors were very professional. The workers simply stared. The shot was completed in one go, there was no NG.
Huai Yan’s gentleness and cleverness; Huai Yu’s heartache and regret; Yin Jing’s jealousy and obsession, all the female actors gave it their all.
Di Xu, who was secretly in love with Huai Yan, was saddened by her death too.
Mo Li’s acting skills had surprised everyone. When coupled with the amazing actor, An Wan, the scene was perfect. Even the director stood up to give them applause.
Mo Li knew how to control her emotions very well. She was gentle, delicate, strong, and brave. She knew when to push and when to pull. Huai Yan she played was 3 dimensional and that was very hard to do. This was her first scene and it promised great things to come.

Mo Li quickly sorted her emotions as she wiped at her tears.
Zhuo Ran’s personality was a perfect fit for Yun Jing; Yi Zheng and Qin Hang were good actors. Director Peng was impressed by Mo Xiao. Every actor fitted their role. Director Peng had an easy job.
Director Peng nodded and smiled.
“We’ll shoot the scene with the wire harness next. Go and prepare yourself. We’ll take a break for 2 hours and then we’ll start the next scene!”
After 2 hours, the shooting continued. Since Mo Li was already scolded that morning, she didn’t dare slack. She finished the scene in one shot.
An Wan took out the snacks she prepared. Everyone had a good time at the set.
“How starving are you? As the female lead, you have to watch your figure.” An Wan laughed as she saw Mo Li stuff the dessert into her mouth one after another.
