Chapter 217 Information Barriers: The Need for Alignment of Granularity

Yu Yang adapted very well to Sheng Kingdom. After joining the Second Prince's forces, her long-suppressed arrogance gradually re-emerged.

She was skilled in both literature and martial arts, possessed a photographic memory, and was adept at horseback riding, archery, swordsmanship, and whip fighting. Many men on the grasslands desired to possess her, and even Haishan was attracted to her.

Once, Hai Shan was discussing state affairs with Chu Yi in the study when Yu Yang was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard. As Hai Shan was speaking, he glanced out the window and saw her slender and strong waist exert force in the air, her whole body flipping and landing gracefully.

His face carried the spiritedness and arrogance of youth.

Hai Shan, admiring the view, suddenly said casually to Chu Yi, "How about I take your sister as my concubine?"

Chu Yi: "..."

Chu Yi was focused on arranging the chess pieces on the board, and said, "My younger sister is still young and unruly, and I'm afraid she is not suitable for Your Highness."

Hai Shan didn't take it to heart, "I just like her unruly spirit."

Judging from this, she really wants to marry Yuyang and take a concubine. For the Second Prince, who has already been granted the title of King, this is nothing.

Chu Yi suddenly knelt down on the ground, bowing and pleading, "Please, Your Highness, rescind your order. Yu Yang's personality is too straightforward and unsuitable for the royal harem. This humble subject only wishes to arrange an ordinary marriage for her, a proper and lawful marriage, even with a commoner..."

"Chu Yi, how dare you!"

Hai Shan suddenly flew into a rage, flung his sleeves and said, "So this is a proper marriage? In your eyes, I am not even as good as a common laborer."

Chu Yi remained silent, only humbly prostrating himself on the ground.

Hai Shan and he parted on bad terms, with Hai Shan punishing him by making him kneel on the spot while everyone else withdrew from the palace.

As the sun set and the moon hung high in the sky, a slender figure disappeared through the window. Yu Yang brought a lot of fruit to Chu Yi's side.

"The prince is going too far. He's made you kneel until now, and you've done so much for him, yet you're still being punished all the time."

As she spoke, she fed Chu Yi. Chu Yi raised his cool and jade-like face in the moonlight and smiled, "The prince has his reasons for punishing me."

"How long are you going to kneel here?"

"Kneel down until Your Highness tells me to get up."

After thinking for a while, Yu Yang moved a futon and sat down next to him. "Then I'll stay with you."

"...Go back to sleep."

"No, I'll be wherever my brother is."

After Yuyang finished speaking, he leaned against him and talked on and on about what had happened that day. He gradually became sleepy and fell asleep leaning against him.

Because she felt safe and secure even kneeling beside Chu Yi.

Chu Yi felt the weight on his shoulders and sighed softly. In the dead of night, he lowered his head and took out a bamboo tube from his wide sleeve, then pulled out a piece of silk from the gap in the bamboo tube.

The inscription above, written in the script of the Yan state, reads: "My son, I long for your return."

This bamboo tube was sent by his uncle. Chu Yi was initially afraid it was a trap and wanted to remain still, but things changed and he had to act ahead of schedule and take the risk.

He turned the silk over to the other side, where the meeting place and method were written in small characters.

The camera then focuses perfectly on a close-up of the silk, and the shoot ends there.

Overall, the drama mainly focuses on Wanyue's growth storyline and Chuyi and Yuyang's flashback storyline. It adopts a breakpoint and blank space shooting style, only filming the important plots, leaving the details in between to be filled in by the audience's imagination.

Fang Ke glanced at the script and, barring any unforeseen circumstances, knew she only had two more scenes to film before wrapping up her scenes in Meng City. She finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fang Ke was pleasantly surprised to see Ye Si after filming the outdoor scenes in the afternoon, but when it came time to film the indoor scenes, that surprise turned into embarrassment.

Especially in some of her ambiguous interactions with Chu Yi, her acting wasn't as natural as before.

Ultimately, she still cared about Yes's presence; even with a very simple plot, she got stuck many times.

Wu Congming asked knowingly, "Fang Ke, what happened to you? You were leaning your head on Chu Yi, and you were holding his waist with both hands. You acted the same way you always have. Remember you're a professional. Ouch, is your hand broken? May I ask you!"

Xu Jingming, the representative of Shenhe Media behind him, chuckled, "Why is Ms. Fang acting so reserved all of a sudden, completely different from when we were shooting outdoors?"

Wu Cong glanced at him and then at Ye Si behind him, thinking that Xiao Xu was asking a question he already knew the answer to.

Seeing that Fang Ke was still making mistakes, Wu Cong could only say to Ye Si, "Little Ye, she can't act with you here, so how about..."

Before Ye Si could speak, Xu Jingming was already shocked. "How dare you! Director Wu! How can you talk like that? What does this have to do with our Ye... Ye... Xiao Ye? You can't even train your own people properly."

Wu Cong: "...?"

Xu Jingming's determination to protect Ye Si's identity during his incognito visit was unknown to anyone. Ye Si, however, just smiled and walked out, saying, "I'm going out for a smoke."

Xu Jingming quickly followed along, acting like a sycophant, leaving Wu Cong to grab the walkie-talkie and shout, "Attention all departments, clear the area! If we can't get it right in one take, no sleep tonight!"

Fang Ke finally finished filming this scene. After leaving the set, she put on her coat and went to find Ye Si.

In the cold wind, Yes stood under the bright moon, a cigarette flickering with a scarlet flame between his fingers.

There was a young man who looked unfamiliar next to him. This man had been following Ye Si since the afternoon, so Fang Ke went over to greet them.

Xu Jingming was unaware of the relationship between the two. As for the rumors about Fang Ke's status as a rich second-generation, there were too many rich second-generation people in this circle, and it was not enough for Xu Jingming to take it seriously.

Right in front of the two of them, with one hand in his pocket, he began to offer his advice: "Miss Fang has a great image, temperament, and acting skills. She has a bright future ahead of her. Keep up the good work. But as someone who's been there, I have to tell you, in this industry, you must remember to stay true to your original aspirations in order to go further."

The original intention was to demonstrate my professional skills to Yes.

Fang Ke subtly raised an eyebrow, "...May I ask who this gentleman is?"

Ye Si said amusedly from the side, "Ms. Fang, representative of Shenhe Media, listen up, Manager Xu is probably speaking from the heart."

"Wow! I've learned a lot."

Xu Jingming quickly smiled slightly, "No, no, I'm just having an occupational hazard. I'm showing off my limited skills in front of Mr. Ye."

After chatting about this and that for a while, Yes casually said, "Let's go find the director and get a call sheet."

Without a word, Xu Jingming turned and walked into the house. Halfway there, something seemed off, so he secretly looked back. What he saw almost scared him to death.

Holy crap, how did they end up hugging?! Fang Ke was just two or three meters away, how did she end up clinging to President Ye? And judging by how they were doing, President Ye was even affectionately stroking her hair and pinching her cheeks, did these two already know each other?!

So Mr. Ye deliberately sent him away just now so that he could have a secret rendezvous with this female celebrity?

Help! What was he doing, giving that grand speech? Was he just being a clown?

He was still standing there like a fool, acting as a third wheel, not knowing what the two of them thought of him. Xu Jingming slapped his forehead, feeling like he was doomed.

Back inside, he hurriedly found Wu Cong, exchanged information with him to clarify the details, and only then did he realize...

Well, I don't know what methods this Miss Fang used, but in any case, she is now Mr. Ye's official girlfriend!

"Do you know how outstanding our CEO Ye is? So many single women in the company want to marry him, and even those who aren't single... never mind, this is too surprising. He's never had any scandals before, how come he's suddenly dating?"

Wu Cong finally realized, "So, the new vice president of your company who approved my project, President Ye, is the President Ye in front of us?"

"That's right!"

Wu Cong slapped his forehead, "Oh no, I've called out 'Xiao Ye' at least ten times today, this is going to shorten my lifespan!"
