The camera perfectly captured the moment her tears fell.

Xia Siyu’s face wore a smile, she had just fought two-on-one, hitting the female lead and the male lead, who had moved on to another love. She was proud, her makeup impeccable, not a trace of spirit lost, beautiful and noble, even in rejection she maintained her grace.

But as she smiled, tears fell silently down her cheeks.

“Stunningly beautiful,” was a phrase many had used. Yet, when everyone on set saw her, even without speaking a line, they could feel the deep pain in her heart. And the words “stunningly beautiful” simply and directly surfaced in everyone’s minds.

Wang Ju didn’t call “cut,” and Xia Siyu kept on crying, eventually, her lips curling into a faint, forlorn smile.

That expression seemed to whisper three words, “Let it be.”

Then, she slightly bowed her head, and all the charm, authority, and sharpness dissipated, her posture as she walked away with head lowered, resembling a stray dog that couldn’t find its home on the streets.

Especially, when combined with the hubbub outside the bar, the flickering neon lights, and the merry crowd, her sorrow and joy appeared all the more pitiful.

Bo Yan was behind, and the camera also captured his gaze. His bangs were a bit long, hiding most of his eyes, but his Adam’s apple moved up and down continuously, his slightly pursed lips trembling, and it wasn’t until Xia Siyu had exited the frame that he turned his head, looking towards the direction she left, his eyes clearly conveying reluctance, melancholy, and a mix of regret and anger.

Shang Feifei behind was simply dumbfounded. It was clearly Bo Yan who messed up the lines, clearly herself who got hit so badly, they had just agreed to capture her crying scene, so why were the cameras now focused on capturing Xia Siyu’s expressions?

The most bewildering part was how it now seemed, from the drama’s perspective, that Bo Yan appeared to be more in love with the second female lead than her?

Who was the real female lead after all?

The scene ended, and the set fell silent.

A few leading actors, Bo Yan, and Xia Siyu remained quiet, Shang Feifei was still in a daze, and even Wang Ju just sat silently behind the monitor. He genuinely appreciated a scene when it reached the state it was in now. He pondered in his mind how this segment should be edited, how to present it on the big screen.

And after the reporters watched this segment, no further questions were raised about her.

They shot the scene a few more times after, capturing different perspectives, Shang Feifei also doing her utmost to perform. But none was more shocking than the first take.

After that take was finished, there were still other scenes to shoot, the actors remained fairly professional, except for Shang Feifei who ended up quite tragically, swollen from the beating and taking a long time to reduce the swelling and reapply her makeup.

Xia Siyu didn’t utter an apology, it wasn’t her who had insisted on changing the script anyway; you changed it yourself, so you deserve whatever comes.

By evening.

Because there were interviews scheduled for the day, the crew finished work early. Wang Ju even organized a dinner, inviting the entire crew to eat together, including the reporters.

The dinner was arranged in a leisure center, and after eating, there was an opportunity to sing and enjoy some entertainment.

Throughout the meal, Xia Siyu was in low spirits, sitting far from Bo Yan, an obvious sign of tension between them.

After they finished eating, they moved to a private room next door. Bo Yan saw Xia Sivu heading to the restroom and followed her out..
