It was a face with sharp features, its pale complexion made even more striking by the deliberate application of makeup, which made its thick, arched eyebrows appear even darker. Beneath its long, slightly curled eyelashes, its dark, deep eyes gazed silently in a certain direction, and beneath its straight nose, its thin, lightly pursed lips were as red as blood.

He was wearing a burgundy turtleneck and a sharp tailcoat. Although the camera only briefly panned across him, his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and tall, straight figure were more eye-catching than anyone else next to him.

In a mere fraction of a second, it amazed countless people.

Many fans and passersby who witnessed this scene quickly rewound the progress bar and watched it countless times, just to capture a fraction of a second of the image!

At the same time, the official Weibo account of Blood Mist, which posted this behind-the-scenes footage, was flooded with comments.

Comment 1: Within five seconds! I need all the information about that handsome guy who appeared for a fraction of a second!

Comment 2: Upstairs, I won't allow you to describe my idol with a fraction of a second! Quickly retract your comment, or I'll kill you! Thank you!

Comment 3: I'm a fan of the original novel, and I'm racking my brains trying to figure out which character that is from the original work QAQ Could it be an extra character added in? Although I personally always oppose adding characters that aren't in the original work to adaptations of the same name... but... I'm sorry, my fellow fans of the original novel, I admit I'm defeated by the looks!

Comment 4: Upstairs, I'm also a fan of the original work. I'm currently editing a screenshot of a handsome guy, a high-quality edit. If you want it, comment "1" in the comments section below and I'll DM him.

Comment 4 in the nested replies: Comment 4: Everyone, please stop replying with "1". My private messages are overflowing, and I've reached my comment limit. If you really want it, please join this new group. Take it yourself after joining, and then leave the group. Thank you for your cooperation!

Comment 5: For that fraction of a second, I went back and reread the original novel, and then I found the fourth case, "The Red Forest Vampire." Do you guys remember it? In the Red Forest Vampire case, there was a very crucial prop, which was the huge oil painting that the perverted villa man kept offering his blood to. Qin (the author) gave that oil painting a lot of attention. Could it be that she's planning to bring out the vampire prince in the painting now? To increase the suspense of the plot?

Comment 6: Holy crap! It's very possible! To be honest, when I saw that case, I kept imagining what the man in the painting would look like, and now I finally have my wish fulfilled!

Comment 7: You guys, is it really necessary to go to such lengths? That person only flashed by in the behind-the-scenes footage, is it really necessary to look at it over and over again?

Comment 6 replied to @Comment 7: This friend probably didn't go back to take the screenshot, right? This is the screenshot taken and edited by comment 4 above. You're welcome to take it [image].

Comment 7 replied to Comment 6: !!!

Comment 7: From now on, I'm someone who has an idol too! Where are my sisters? Take me home!

Perhaps because of the heavy makeup, for a moment no one recognized that the man who appeared for a fraction of a second in the behind-the-scenes footage was Yin Chengjue, who had appeared on the trending searches many times before.

Meanwhile, in the general manager's office of Huansheng Entertainment, an extremely low pressure had been lingering for a long time.

A murderous aura seemed to emanate from Yin Chengjue's eyes, sweeping across the large office.

Sally looked up at the sky, while Assistant Guan looked down at the ground, pretending they knew nothing.

Only Shang Liu, completely oblivious to the situation, pounded the table and laughed heartily.

While laughing, he pointed to the newly updated behind-the-scenes video on the official Weibo account of Blood Mist and said, "Really, President Yin, don't you really want to consider entering the entertainment industry? I bet even if your acting skills are terrible, just based on your looks and your figure, you can attract a lot of female fans and little zeros."

Yin Chengjue: "Get out!"

Shang Liu shrugged: "Don't be so easily amused. I was just kidding. But I was really surprised that you agreed to take such a photo with Qin Linlin. I heard that President Yin doesn't like taking pictures."

Before Yin Chengjue could answer, Sally said, "He has never really liked it since he was little, but it doesn't matter whether he likes it or not. Ahe has taken a lot of photos of him, even when he was still wearing open-crotch pants."

Sally became interested as soon as she heard this, and said, "Our CEO Yin has been handsome since he was a child. I even have a photo of him when he was seven years old. You don't know how good he was at seven. If you put wings on him, I would believe you if you said he was an angel!"

"Snap!" Yin Chengjue narrowed his eyes dangerously, opened his palm, and dropped a fragment of the ballpoint pen.

Sally quickly shut up and secretly exchanged a glance with Shang Liu.

Yin Chengjue: "Sally, if I find out you secretly sent my old photos to Shang Liu, you're dead."

"Hahaha, Mr. Yin, you really are something. I'm your elder, and you're threatening me like this. It really makes me feel cold-hearted." Sally said, feigning grievance, "Besides, what's wrong with posting this? Before, that third young master of the Murong family always followed you around calling you 'angel brother,' and you were quite happy to let him call you that, weren't you?"

"Pfft!" Assistant Guan spat out the coffee he had just drunk.

Yin Chengjue's cold gaze swept over them.

Assistant Guan: "...I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. Mr. Yin, please contact me again if you need anything." With that, he slipped away.

Shang Liu raised an eyebrow: "The third young master of the Murong family? I remember that the third young master seemed to have suffered from a serious illness and was sent abroad for treatment for a period of time. I heard that he was cured, but he has never shown his face. The Murong couple usually do not take him out for social events, so not many people know what he looks like now."

Sally was really into these gossips: "Didn't the other day there were rumors that the third young master of the Murong family came out as gay and ran away from home? I don't know how that news got out of that deep mansion, but everyone's been saying it anyway."

Shang Liu: "Didn't you just say that the Third Young Master played with President Yin when he was a child? Have you seen what that child looks like?"

"Hey, I remember I still have some photos at home, taken with Little Yin. I'll find them and share them with you guys another day. Little Yin, who's called 'Angel Brother,' doesn't deserve the title for nothing. He's so young and already has a little tail following him around. If he hadn't been sick and had to go abroad for treatment, with how clingy that little tail is, you two could probably have grown up together."

Yin Chengjue was chatting with Rong Yu on WeChat at the time. Upon hearing this, he gave a disinterested "hehe" and seemed unwilling to pay attention to Sally and Shang Liu.

Sally deliberately provoked him: "Mr. Yin, if you don't mind, I really will go and search it when I get back~"

Yin Chengjue finally looked up and gave her a look: "If you have nothing better to do, why don't you search the whole internet for the period dramas that Xiaoyu filmed when she was a child? This is a great way to do public relations, you can't miss it."

Shang Liu looked on with amusement: "Rong Yu has acted in period dramas before?"

Sally smiled wryly: "Xiaoyu told me that he was just making a cameo appearance in an ancient costume role, and it was even a last-minute cameo. He acted in one scene and then left. His name wasn't even on the cast list. How are we supposed to find him?"

Yin Chengjue: "Aren't you very free?"

Sally immediately waved her hand: "No, no, I suddenly remembered I have a lot of things to do, I'll get right now..."

Shang Liu: "Huh? Wait a minute!"

Shang Liu turned his phone over and placed it in front of Yin Chengjue: "Look at that child in this period drama, doesn't he look somewhat similar to Rong Yu?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Chengjue quickly looked over, his gaze soon focusing on a boy wearing a golden robe.

Yin Chengjue immediately recognized it as a still from the period drama "Lin Tian Jue," which airs every summer and winter vacation.

Shang Liu said, "I recently signed a contract for a period drama, and I'm currently researching how to make the costumes and props. Since the dynasty is the same as Lin Tian Jue, I wanted to take a look at Lin Tian Jue as well. So I asked someone to collect some stills from Lin Tian Jue back then. When you guys talk about period dramas, this is the first one that comes to mind."

Sally also curiously came over, then quickly shook her head and said, "I watch this little prince every winter and summer vacation. I know his appearance by heart. He doesn't look like Xiaoyu at all. Besides, the actor who plays the little prince was a very popular child star back then. Although he has grown up and matured, and has become a little less attractive, he still has a tough guy look and quite a few people like him. He is definitely not Xiaoyu."

Shang Liu said speechlessly, "Who told you to look at that little emperor? I told you to look behind these people, at the little child who was accidentally photographed, the one wearing a bright red dress."

Yin Chengjue's gaze had actually shifted to the young prince the moment Shang Liu pointed it out.

It was a child dressed as a girl.

However, the features on that small face do indeed bear some resemblance to Rong Yu.

"Ah! I remember now, isn't this the little sister of the Crown Prince in the plot of 'The Heavenly Decree'? A little princess who was kidnapped and killed not long after she appeared. The male protagonist, the young Crown Prince, turned to the dark side because he saw his sister being killed, and then vowed to take revenge and reform the court after ascending the throne." Sally suddenly remembered.

Yin Chengjue's gaze was fixed on the little girl in the bright red dress, a vague feeling stirring within him—he felt as if he had seen her before, not on television, but rather, very, very close...

"Really? Vice President Shang, do you really think this child is Rong Yu? It's just that their features are somewhat similar, right?" Sally said.

Shang Liu is a man of action; he quickly took out his phone and started playing the first episode of "The Heavenly Decision".

Yes, the little princess in the bright red dress only appeared in the first episode before dying. In the second episode, the unloved young prince cries bitterly while holding his sister's corpse, then digs a pit in the snow and buries her remains. At the same time, the seed of revenge is planted in his young heart.

The crying and death scenes of this little princess, who only appeared in the first episode, were regarded as classics by many viewers and once sparked a wave of searching for this child actress.
