Father Ni had made the final decision. If those people dared to act out, then they should be stepped on.
The Ni sons nodded reluctantly. “Got it.”
They easily decided on the plans for the future. XunMi would continue filming Lu QianYu’s film. Ou JinYan and Ni FengHua will prepare the wedding, even though Ni FengHua was vehemently against this part of the plan.
XunMi officially entered the filming site pretty early. However, there was another person that had arrived even before her. Bai QianWei was here.
According to Lu QianYu, there was a character in the show very suitable for Bai QianWei. He had smiled at XunMi and told her to just wait and see, making XunMi seethe in silent irritation for a while. But now, seeing Bai QianWei in her character’s costume, she finally realized why Lu QianYu kept saying the character was very suited for Bai QianWei. Bai QianWei was playing a spy. It was a spy that had plastic surgery and then sneaked into her opponent’s camp.
XunMi could only roll her eyes. To help her take revenge, Lu QianYu really did put in his all. He had arranged such a wild identity for the spy. During the month of special training, she had become extremely familiar with Lu QianYu. She also found out more about the alleged marriage declaration. It had happened when she was 2 years old. Young Ni XunMi had decided to sell herself after Lu QianYu bought her a lollipop.
Lu QianYu had been five or six years old. When young Lu QianYu saw the cute little XunMi, he wanted to play with her. But XunMi would just ignore him. Lu QianYu would then take out a lollipop from his backpack and bribe her. She didn’t know better as a kid so was easily convinced to marry him.
Luckily, Lu QianYu only seemed a bit disheartened after XunMi cleared up the matter with him. After all, it was just a promise between kids. Moreover, she wasn’t even the original Ni XunMi. If she didn’t have a good impression of Lu QianYu, she wouldn’t even have bothered explaining the situation to him. XunMi and Tang XuXia’s promotional photoshoot finished quickly. In the drama, the two played a pair of siblings. They had mutual affections for each other but could never be together.
In the era of war and fire, there was a group of people that were willing to fight back, placing justice for their countrymen above their own lives. They advanced forward with unyielding spirit and perseverance. They resisted foreign enemies and stabilized domestic powers as they took steps towards victory. Some of the most outstanding fighters was a pair of siblings. The sister was named Gu XiCi, meaning ‘to meet an old friend at Huang River’. Her older brother was Gu NanAn, meaning ‘the heart is not at rest when it is filled with worry for old friends’. Their parents had been participants in the revolutionary vanguard. Therefore they gave their children names that together meant ‘no peace for the old friend.’ They hoped that their kids could be calm in the face of catastrophe. As children, the siblings suffered from the destruction of their home country, the invasion of powerful enemies, and the tragedy of the deaths of their parents. Memories of the dark red color of blood seeped into their hearts. Their beating hearts began to numb. They naturally inherited the mission to rebuild a strong nation. One joined the army and the other entered the intelligence department. They lived amidst life or death situations and grew as they obsession deepened. To each other, they were the only thing left in the world that they cared about. Their feelings for each other were silently planted during this time. As they were sabotaged and betrayed again and again, as they fought battle after battle, their already hardened hearts completely sealed off. Besides each other, no one else could enter.
XiCi used her wisdom to continuously provide her brother with strategic plans. She used information from the Intelligence Department to give her brother advanced notice. The last battle lasted five whole years. Gu NanAn’s team won. But in the battle, he also lost his most beloved sister forever. Her continuous interception of intelligence and private use of information had been discovered by someone with an ulterior motive. They said that Gu XiCi was a spy privately feeding their enemies. Before Gu NanAn could rush back and save her, she died on the gallows. But her death also revealed the true spy hidden deep withen the intelligence department. It was the same person that had framed her. The army had been in a long stalemate with their enemies due to the spy’s actions. She had seduced the intelligence department’s deputy director. She gained his trust, along with the trust of the senior information officer. She regularly delayed or directly modified the communication of important information, causing the Director of the Intelligence Bureau to make the wrong calls of action.
The final scene was Gu NanAn’s wearing a marshal’s uniform and standing in front of a gravestone. On the gravestone was the picture of a bright and cheerful girl. She had short hair, a pair of peach blossom eyes that were clean and pure, yet her smile revealed a bit of her mischievous side. She also wore an army outfit. On her shoulders was the badge of honor reserved for the Major General. The beginning of the path to reunification was built by the two of them. Yet the end of the road was so heartbreaking.
Gu NanAn. Gu NanAn. His old friend had already left him so his heart could no longer be at peace. That was the entire drama. The one most touched on in the script as Gu XiCi’s character. Although she didn’t necessarily have the most scenes, she was definitely the most memorable character.
XunMi’s acting, from her expression to her posture, had the addition of a special heroic air that military personnel carried. Her immersion encouraged the entire cast and crew to move quickly and increased their impression of the skills of the Acting King and Queen. The drama shooting also went off without a glitch. There wasn’t even anything to complain about with Bai QianWei. Some even said that if Bai QianWei was a bit more quiet and less dramatic, she could have become popular.
XunMi ignored all of their talk with a smile. Inside she was thinking wasn’t it obvious that Bai QianWei’s acting improvement was because she was playing herself? Both Bai QianWei and the character she was playing were both sesame tangyuan {T/N: black on the inside}.
XunMi had made the right assumption. Bai QianWei had thrown all her negative emotions hidden inside her into this character.
But unfortunately, there was XunMi’s acting that had set an example for everyone on set. Moreover, no matter how suited she was to play this character, it was hard for the spy to gain any of the audience’s sympathy. After two months of completely sealed off filming, the shoot finally ended.
The reshoots that needed to be done were done, the refinements for the scenes that needed to be touched up were refined. There was only half a month left before the anniversary date of the country’s founding.
Lu QianYu waved his director’s hand and requested everyone to work overtime to finish editing the final cut of the drama.
