Ye Xian arrived at the film set just in time to see Luo Yuwei stepping out of the nanny van from across the road; the two saw each other.
Ye Xian reached out to greet her, but Luo Yuwei acted as if she saw nothing and walked right past her without even a look back or a simple gesture of acknowledgement, indifferently treating her as if she were thin air.
Ye Xian’s smile froze, Zhou Lu saw the cold back of Luo Yuwei and the scornful snort from Xiao Nan as she passed by, opened her mouth in disbelief, and then jumped in anger, "Brother Ye, look at her! Isn’t she just too arrogant and rude?!"
Ye Xian also found it odd. Although she had already noticed that Luo Yuwei had become colder towards her, in face-to-face encounters like this, there would typically be some perfunctory nodding. But earlier, as she walked past her, her eyelids drooped, the side of her nose wrinkled—it was clearly an expression of disgust, or even jealousy.
Jealousy?
Could it be that she felt, once this drama aired, her popularity would surpass hers?
She had thought that by assuming a male actor’s identity this time, she might avoid the troubles that actresses targeted her with in her past life, but it seemed that was not the case.
"Maybe she didn’t see me."
"How could she not! Walking straight towards each other, unless she’s blind, she couldn’t have missed me!"
Zhou Lu was furious, rolling up her sleeves ready to fight, not understanding what was so great about Luo Yuwei. Although Yuwei was the female lead, her acting, popularity, and resources were all inferior to Brother Ye’s. If anyone should be acting like a big shot, it should be Brother Ye, and yet she was the one putting on airs first!
Was it just because she was a new favorite promoted by Star Entertainment? Then Brother Ye was still President Bo’s... sweetheart!
Although, it was her own fanciful thinking, the mysterious sixth sense of a woman told her she was not wrong!
"Don’t know who used to behave like a fawning dog around you, Brother Ye, showering you with constant care, serving meals and water, and now that the TV drama is airing and seeing that you are more successful than she, her true colors of jealousy are immediately revealed!"
"Alright." Ye Xian patted her back to comfort her, "Why so much anger, young lady? After we finish this scene, we probably won’t have to see each other again."
Zhou Lu: "?"
Does Brother Ye mean we will never collaborate with her in the future?
Zhou Lu was suddenly overwhelmingly excited!
Brother Ye is so staunch! She loves it! Luo Yuwei doesn’t deserve to work with Brother Ye. She will probably be popular only because of this show, and that’s thanks to Brother Ye and Captain Jiang’s support; now she’s flying so high, who knows how badly she might fall later!
As soon as Ye Xian entered the studio, Zeng Minghui came up to her with the script, "Ye Xian, are you ready?"
Ye Xian knew what he meant, and she nodded, "Yes, don’t worry, I’ve memorized the lines perfectly."
Zeng Minghui smiled, "I trust your vigor, boy. You’ll surely do well, but this finale scene is crucial, not a single flaw can be tolerated, once you finish this, the team will throw you a wrap party!"
Speaking of the wrap party made him a little reluctant to let go, as it was rare to collaborate with such a talented actor, and it was ending so soon.
"Alright."
Ye Xian walked into the makeup room, began to change clothes and put on makeup.
She picked up the script, turned to the last two pages, and read them carefully once again. Today, they were shooting her final scene, as well as the ending for Shen Jinyou.
Ande Gate of the Forbidden City, death of Shen Jinyou.
Although on TV, "Conquest of the World" had only aired up to episode twenty—featuring the comical and endearing moments of deep adversity shared by Gu Tianlin, Xia Qingshao, and Shen Jinyou, captivating the netizens with Shen Jinyou’s heartfelt charm and charisma—many pleaded on the official Weibo and the screenwriter’s account to rewrite Shen Jinyou’s ending in the novel. However, the original author steadfastly refused to change it.
She also felt it should not be changed.
Shen Jinyou’s love for Xia Qingshao was deep to the bone; if he couldn’t have her, perhaps death was his destined fate.
"Three, two, one, Action!"
In the constant battles where the rotten shell of a once-glorious Imperial Army clashed against the newly rising and strengthening Hengshan Army, the Desert North Imperial Court retreated step by step, losing numerous cities. With each loss, their morale plunged further, especially after Gu Tianlin was wounded, greatly diminishing their fighting spirit.

Her sorrowful eyes gradually became resolute, even cruel.
