  The filming of ‘Extreme Youth’ was extremely tough.

  While the acting cast was grumbling and begging for mercy from suffering in the hands of the strict production team, Yun Shishi thought nothing of it.

  Compared to the demonic directors, Lin Fengtian and Gu Xiaoyang, the current production team cpuld be considered extremely humane, though that might be because she had completely adapted to such fast-paced filming after undergoing Lin Fengtian’s ‘torture’.

  Her relationship with the production team was relatively harmonious, too. After all, she was no longer her past self—a complete greenhorn. Back then, while working on ‘The Green Apple’ and ‘Lethal Beauty’, she was not exactly well-received by the production staff and acting cast, for most of them were bootlickers who fawned on veterans and looked down on newbies.

  Things were different now, however.

  After hitting the billion mark in ticket sales on her debut film and winning the Best Newcomer of the Year award, she had risen to become one of the hottest starlets with her increasing popularity. The airing of ‘Lethal Beauty’ also brought her fame to a new height, so most of the production team treated her with respect.

  What was truly surprising to the staff was that, even though the actress had achieved overnight fame in showbiz, she did not put on any airs and was, in fact, a very affable person. She was totally unlike those prima donnas who had no regard for anyone and anything. Thus, they enjoyed being in her company and got along well with her.

  The one thing the actress was concerned about in the production team, however, was Ji Yan’s mysterious identity.

  Rumors regarding this newbie actress were rife online. Many netizens speculated that she was Yan Bingqing, the actress who had vanished before the public’s eyes ever since that slapping incident during the filming of ‘The Green Apple’ got exposed and her reputation became sullied. There was no news of her thereafter.

  People guessed that, in order to cover up her dirty past, she had temporarily left showbiz to undergo plastic surgery to change her features; she then made her debut again as a rookie with new looks and a new identity.

  Then again, those were just the netizens’ speculation.

  After coming into close contact with her, Yun Shishi realized, much to her surprise, that the two female artists were very different.

  Yan Bingqing was a snotty, high-profile A-lister, who was always bullying the production staff and even openly challenging the directors, whereas Ji Yan was polite, gentle, and friendly. The latter got along well with the entire production crew; she had even seen her greeting a cleaning lady with a smile. This was something that Yan Bingqing would never do.

  Nevertheless, she could still find some sort of similarity between the two based on her memories of Yan Bingqing.

  While one’s appearance could be modified with cosmetic technology, their voice could not. Even though Ji Yan usually spoke in a gentle tone, her laughter held the distinctive tone unique to Yan Bingqing.

  There had been several occasions when Yun Shishi, with her burning curiosity, wanted to find out the truth, but upon coming face to face with Ji Yan, she found her speculations to be ridiculous.
