Yang Mi was different, however .

She debuted as a child actress and stepped foot in the entertainment industry at a young age . At the age of five, she starred as a young princess in a drama about an imperial harem .

As a child actress who had successfully transitioned into a full-fledged actress, she had many experiences in shooting for productions . Unfortunately, her acting skill was just up to par, and this was her biggest weakness in her career as an artiste .

Appearances could be improved with plastic surgery and fame could be increased by creating a buzz to attract attention . However, her lack of skill in acting remained as her Achilles heel!

Given Yun Shishi"s superior apt.i.tude to hers, she would naturally eye her with hostility .

Another reason was none other than her becoming the female lead despite being a rookie actress . The compet.i.tion for this role was originally between Yan Bingqing and Yang Mi, but when Yun Shishi parachuted into the team, the two past rivals instantly became present allies .

It was indeed as the saying went: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend . "

As such, after being criticized by Lin Fengtian, the two banded together and went to ridicule her .

Unfortunately for them, Yun Shishi was someone who remained indifferent to honor or disgrace .

She did not take their taunts to heart .

Throughout the night, she carefully a.n.a.lyzed the issue with her positioning .

On the next day of filming, her positioning improved tremendously, and there appeared to be no major issues . Even if there were, they were only minor flaws, and her takes were quickly compensated for under Lin Fengtian"s instructions .

He was extremely shocked by this, yet he did not compliment her before the others .

He wanted to praise her badly, but he could not do that .

He rarely did commend someone . If he were to do so before everyone else, they would definitely be envious of her .

Thus, regardless of her excellent performance, he never did let his happiness surface .

In reality, he was absolutely satisfied with her performance, which was better than what he had expected; she was even better than Gu Xingze in acting .

He landed a slap to his thigh . Once he thought of the upcoming kissing scene, he was simply blushing in excitement .

He looked forward to her performance!

The following take was also quickly done .

Soon, they were about to film the tenth scene .

Thrilled, he ran over to where the pair was to explain the scene .

There were a few kissing scenes in the entire novel, and there were only five throughout the movie .

According to the script, the first kiss occurred between Yin Dongyu and Yin Xiachun in this particular scene .

Yun Shishi had mentally prepared herself for the kiss in advance . Only a few words described it in the novel, so when she heard that the director had requested for a close-up shot for this scene, her face immediately turned a few shades of crimson .

“When you act out the kiss, you need to immerse yourself fully in it . Yin Xiachun"s innocence, nervousness, and thunderous heartbeats, as well as Yin Dongyu"s unrest and helplessness, must be properly portrayed!”

For some reason, she was suddenly a little out of sorts during his instructions .

Mu Yazhe"s charming yet refined voice rang in her ears .

"Kiss me . "

He was the first person she had kissed .

Before that, she had no experience in it whatsoever .

She vividly recalled him gracefully stretching himself in front of her . His pair of deep-set eyes laid on her body as his lips formed a sinister yet provocative upward curve .

He whispered to her, "Please me . "

As he solicited a kiss from her, he kept hold of her floundering hands and pulled her into his chest . He then pressed her body against a wall and domineeringly deepened the kiss to the point of oxygen-depletion .

With their fingers locked together, they experienced a kiss so intense they seemed to melt into each other"s blood and bones .

However, at the thought of him doing that while he affectionately entangled his body with another woman"s, an ill feeling uncontrollably rose from her chest .
