Mr. MO spared no words in his praise for Yun Nan, and Shi Nian listened and nodded repeatedly. Mr. MO had a moment’s thought before he asked, “Should I be counted as her side of the family or yours? What do you think?”
Shi Nian chuckled, “She has everyone in her studio to act as her family, and our family treats her like she’s the apple of their eyes. Why don’t you stand on my side? I’m truly outnumbered here.”

Shi Nian was in a very good mood and didn’t mind the good-natured teasing. The audience only slowly quieted down when the movie started. When the movie ended two hours later, and the lights lit up one after another, the audience was in complete silence, though occasionally, a few sobs could still be heard.
Yun Nan and Fang Xi walked out with the movie’s creative team to thank everyone. All of the staff wore black pants and white t-shirts, with the words ‘4:30 P.M.’ clearly shown on their chests. The emcee handed a microphone over and let everyone introduce themselves one by one. Shi Xiu was a little shy and nervous when it was her turn. Yun Nan stood beside her and put an arm around her shoulder.
“Hello, everyone. My name is Shi Xiu, and I’m the actress who played Xiao He in ‘4:30 P.M. “‘ Shi Xiu introduced herself and handed the microphone to the male lead actor beside her.
Yun Nan patted her shoulder and whispered, “Don’t be nervous! You’re doing great!”
Shi Xiu turned her head to the side to smile gratefully at Yun Nan. ‘I’m not so nervous with Yun Nan by my side,’ she thought. Her gaze fell on her brother sitting in the front row, and Shi Nian gave her a thumbs up.
Shi Xiu was so happy she covered her mouth. She actually got her brother’s approval! Shi Xiu immediately felt her entire body fill with strength, and her back straightened.
Meanwhile, the emcee said, “As everyone knows, the female lead of our movie
is a newcomer. In order to give everyone the best viewing experience, our newcomer has never been revealed before the screening of the movie. Today is her first appearance before the public. Come; let us invite Miss Shi Xiu to tell us how she feels about her first movie filming experience.”
The emcee handed the microphone to Shi Xiu, who was shocked and turned to stare at Yun Nan. Yun Nan nodded and smiled encouragingly. Shi Xiu accepted the microphone and stepped forward, looking around worriedly at the others, all smiling encouragingly at her.

This is my first time filming a movie, and it really has been my privilege to come across such a role! I’m especially grateful to everyone in our production team. They have taught me so much.”
With that, Shi Xiu turned around and bowed to the people on both sides. No one had expected Shi Xiu to do this. They couldn’t help but reach out to stop her, and those closer to her patted her.
The emcee chortled, “I can tell the atmosphere in your production team is very good. Shi Xiu, do they all treat you like a little sister?”
Shi Xiu nodded and sincerely stated, “I’d never faced a camera before filming this movie, and I didn’t know exactly what making a movie involves. Our director—Mika—our screenwriter—Miss An—our manager—Fang Xi—and Director Yun taught me everything, bit by bit—from the lines to the motions, facial expressions, and even emotional expressions. When I sometimes felt stupid and depressed, my friends and colleagues would come to comfort and encourage me. To be honest, I felt I would be letting our crew down if I didn’t do well.’
Everyone, even the emcee, laughed. “Shi Xiu, you have quite a lively personality, don’t you? Xiao He is a very troubled and depressed character, so how did you understand her? How did you portray a person completely different from yourself?” the emcee asked.
Shi Xiu was much more at ease when speaking about her role. She replied, “Xiao He’s experience is tragic, but she is a strong, brave, and optimistic person. I lived with the crew for a while, meditating on the set, putting myself into Xiao He’s mindset and feeling her tenacious willpower.”
“When she was young, she was determined to find her biological parents. Later, she adopted her daughter and was determined to help her daughter find her biological parents. The hardships of life and material suffering were nothing to her; she could always find beauty and joy in her miseries. Therefore, the daughter she raised also had the same qualities as her.” Shi Xiu explained and glanced at Yun Nan standing at the side..
