Qin Xu's current performance is clearly not enough to carry a role with too much weight.
Qin Yue had searched for the original novel of "Lingzhu Mountain" and knew the general plot.
Although this drama is an ancient costume fantasy drama, judging from the plot, it can be considered a male-centric drama.
The story is told from the male protagonist's perspective, and the main plot revolves around him. After his family is wiped out, he becomes a disciple of Daolingzhu Mountain to learn martial arts. Later, he suffers a series of heart-wrenching events, including the destruction of his golden core, the severing of his meridians, and being falsely accused of harming his fellow disciples.
A once-proud son of heaven has fallen into a quagmire, and his life has been full of twists and turns.
The female lead is Qin Xu's junior sister, innocent and carefree, who follows her senior brother in cultivation after joining the sect.
The two were inseparable, and she naturally fell in love with her aloof senior brother. When everyone distrusted him, she resolutely protected him, going through fire and water for him, and finally redeemed him from the path of evil, turning her unrequited love into reality.
If the male lead's acting is subpar, the show will lose half its appeal.
Investing involves risks, so invest with caution.
...
Qin Yue and Lu Yanci arrived at the hotel parking lot together.
Director Liu and his group were waiting in the parking lot.
Seeing Qin Xu holding hands with a man they had never met before, everyone couldn't help but show curious expressions.
Qin Yue introduced Lu Yanci to the group.
Then he introduced several crew members, including Director Liu.
After exchanging pleasantries, the group got into the car.
The director booked several private rooms.
Most of the people at their table were from the directing team, along with the two lead actors, Lu Yanci, who was accompanying Qin Yue as her boyfriend, and Dong Lingling, who was in the same private room as Fang Yuanzhou's girlfriend.
The producer, who arrived late, recognized Lu Yanci at first glance. After regaining her senses, she hurriedly shook hands with him: "President Lu! I don't know if you remember me. We met at the wedding banquet of the eldest son of the Qi family. I have been wanting to invite you to dinner ever since, but I didn't have your contact information. I didn't expect to meet you here today."
Qi Jia?
The Qi family?
Qin Yue realized that he was referring to Qi Ye's older brother, Qi's eldest son.
Lu Yanci had many social engagements and met countless people, so he had no recollection of the person in front of him.
He said calmly, "The main character tonight is Director Liu, so we won't steal the spotlight. Please have a seat."
"Okay, okay, please have a seat."
Fang Yuanzhou poked Qin Yue's arm with his finger, turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Sis, is your boyfriend that awesome?"
This producer is also an investor and has a lot of influence. Fang Yuanzhou had dealt with him before, and the other party's attitude was lukewarm, not as easy to talk to as the director. He thought the other party was someone who didn't like to communicate with people.
It seems they just can't be bothered with him.
And now, their attitude towards Lu Yanci can be described as extremely respectful.
There were quite a few people present who shared the same thoughts as Fang Yuanzhou.
Qin Yue glanced at him sideways, and Fang Yuanzhou immediately made a gesture of manually zipping up his zipper to shut up.
Although Lu Yanci said he shouldn't overshadow the host, after the producer introduced him as President Lu of Qisheng Technology and the heir to the wealthy Lu family, almost everyone forgot the main purpose of the dinner and all eyes were on him.
Qin Xu glanced at Lu Yanci, who was surrounded by admirers, then silently lowered his eyelids and clenched his wine glass.
A moment later, he picked up his wine glass, raised it towards Qin Yue, and said, "Sister..."
As soon as he uttered the words, he met Qin Yue's indifferent gaze and could only change his form of address: "We are able to gather here today thanks to President Qin. I would like to propose a toast to President Qin."
Qin Yue did not raise her glass.
They don't even intend to put on a show.
He held the cup firmly in his hand.
His stubborn and persistent gaze was fixed on Qin Yue.
It was as if she was ignoring him and he would just keep holding it up.
The atmosphere in the private room suddenly turned cold.
Fang Yuanzhou chuckled: "Everyone knows my cousin and you don't get along, Qin, you big star, so please don't bother with these formalities. If you really want to drink, come on, I'll drink with you. To be blunt, there were no casualties, so I deserve some credit for that, right? Let's put aside yesterday's grudges for now. It's not unreasonable for me to drink one cup and you to drink three, is it?"
Qin Xu put down his wine cup.
They don't take him seriously at all.
Fang Yuanzhou was so angry he laughed. He put his wine glass on the table, turned to Qin Yue and said, "Sister, I told you long ago that he's a person who treats people differently based on their status and doesn't know how to be grateful. See, it's true. All his gratitude is fake. He's just trying to curry favor with you. Don't fall for it."
Everyone: "..."
They all noticed.
Qin Xu and they really don't get along.
There's no need to specifically emphasize that.
Couldn't you have said these things behind closed doors?
Are they pretending not to hear, or are they pretending not to hear?
The already oppressive atmosphere became even heavier.
After peeling the crab, Lu Yanci put down his tools and put the crab meat into the small bowl next to Qin Yue.
He seemed oblivious to the awkward atmosphere and asked Qin Yue gently, "Is there anything else you'd like to eat?"
Everyone was speechless.
No, Qin Xu and Fang Yuanzhou look like they're about to fight again. President Lu, are you still enjoying your peaceful life here?
The director immediately laughed and said, "President Lu is so considerate to President Qin. These days, every young person would want to find a boyfriend as considerate as President Lu."
"And then there's President Qin. He's generous and everyone likes to listen to him. Even though he's only been on set for two days, I don't know how many young, single guys have fallen for him."
Lu Yanci paused in wiping his fingers.
The assistant director noticed his subtle movements and quickly chimed in, "Whether others want to find a boyfriend like President Lu or a girlfriend like President Qin, they can only dream about it. In this world, there is only one President Qin and only one President Lu. President Qin and President Lu are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
"That's right, President Qin and President Lu are the best match."
"Don't just drink, everyone. Eat some food. Order more if you're still hungry. Lingling is here too. Would you like some drinks?"
The group tried their best to liven up the atmosphere, but the effect was... poor.
Shi Leyao didn't dare to say anything, afraid of offending someone if she said the wrong thing. This meal was supposed to be to thank President Qin, but it turned into a battleground.
If you don't eat, you'll just sit there.
Eat up. If her manager finds out she's been indulging in two meals in a row, he'll kill her.
She went to drink, but no one offered her a toast.
She couldn't just silently drink away her sorrows like Qin Xu.
Let's just drink plain water.
Will drinking too much water at this time cause severe edema the next day?
Never mind, I'll have coffee later.
She successfully drank so much water that she felt full.
