Director Zhang felt that Wen Nuan was exceptionally good at acting internal emotions, primarily because her eyes were so expressive and she conveyed inner feelings with precision. That delicate, poignant charm made people feel sympathetic, while her resilience earned admiration. This scene was a highlight, and both Chen Hang and Wen Nuan perford exceptionally well.

Especially Princess Xiangxiang’s line.

"Wushuang, I don’t need you to promise anything. In this life, you’ve already decided to be with Qinglian. Treat her well. You don’t need to feel guilty. The promises you made to , you can fulfill them in your next life. If you still can’t fulfill them in your next life, then the life after that. I will always wait. I am willing to wait." Princess Xiangxiang’s deep devotion, rendered through Wen Nuan’s performance, made this scene utterly heartbreaking.

The sadness, the profound pain, the release, the blessing—she portrayed it all. Though her face was tear-streaked, she turned away with remarkable grace. At least in front of Crown Prince Nalan, she presented herself with elegance, unwilling to be looked down upon.

In that mont, Crown Prince Nalan was in tears.

Later, film critics remarked that Princess Xiangxiang was, in fact, the person the Crown Prince kept hidden deep within his heart, the most profound and most longed-for presence. No woman, including Princess Qinglian, had rooted as deeply in his heart as Princess Xiangxiang.

He had never truly possessed her, and this life would be spent reminiscing about Princess Xiangxiang’s youthful years at seventeen or eighteen, thinking of her deep affection, and the regret of having missed her. This regret was sothing Princess Qinglian could not fill.

They took a break, and then it was ti for Lin Xueru and Zhuo Bingbing’s scene. Wen Nuan’s scenes for the day were almost finished. She went to the makeup room to remove her makeup, and Chen Hang ca to find her there.

"Wen Nuan, is the matter between you and Fang Liucheng true?"

"False." Wen Nuan answered swiftly. "Why?"

Chen Hang hesitated, deliberating for a while before saying, "Wen Nuan, then... can you be my girlfriend?"

He felt, for the first ti, so nervous, so humble in front of a girl five or six years younger than him. Although so actors on set gossiped about her, he trusted his heart; he hadn’t misjudged her.

Wen Nuan was a good girl.

He liked her.

Wen Nuan was startled, her mouth wide open in surprise. What was Chen Hang doing? She subconsciously blurted out, "Chen Hang, we’re not filming now."

Chen Hang was extrely embarrassed. He said, "I know. I like you, Wen Nuan. I’m not stuck in character; I genuinely like you."

Wen Nuan put down the cotton pad and said calmly, "I don’t think I have ti for a relationship right now."

To her, he was just a good buddy, a good friend. This had nothing to do with romance.

"Is there sothing I’m not doing well enough? Tell , I can change."

"No, no, no, it’s not your problem, it’s my problem. Chen Hang, I consider you a friend, and I’ve never thought of developing another kind of relationship with you," Wen Nuan said earnestly.

"It can change, can’t it?" Chen Hang didn’t give up. "Many couples start as friends and turn into lovers."

"Chen Hang, please don’t say anymore. It’s impossible between us," Wen Nuan said decisively. "My heart belongs to soone else. I’m very sorry."

She could only use this excuse to put him off.

Why did Chen Hang have to say that? How awkward would it be to face him in the future? She still had many scenes with him. Now that it was out in the open, things felt different. Wen Nuan sighed.

"May I ask, who is this person?"

Wen Nuan smiled faintly. "I’m sorry, that’s my private business."

Chen Hang lowered his head in disappointnt, then looked up a mont later. "Wen Nuan, I like you. I won’t give up."

Wen Nuan remained silent, shaking her head. "Chen Hang, don’t waste your ti on ."

Cai Xiaojing was puzzled. Throughout the entire day, Ye Feimo hadn’t called, which was completely unexpected. Logically, after such an incident, Ye Feimo should have imdiately rushed to the set and dragged Wen Nuan away.

And given her a good lecture at ho.

But who knew he would remain silent? Cai Xiaojing looked at Anning International’s entertainnt section, feeling uneasy. The facts were still reported, but the slant of the news was different. It seed Ye Feimo still cared about Wen Nuan.

So that ant... everything was fine, right?

Cai Xiaojing reassured herself.

Wen Nuan’s evening scenes were almost done. She wouldn’t have night shifts for a while, so she left work at 6 PM. Cai Xiaojing took her ho. Wen Nuan gave the house deed to her father, and her mother wept with joy.

Wen Nuan’s father was a man who deeply loved his wife. The villa had originally been registered in her mother’s na. After regaining it, her mother was overjoyed, shedding tears continuously.

Wen Nuan repeatedly assured them that the photos of her and Fang Liucheng were just a misunderstanding, and only then did her father relax. "I really like that child, Liucheng, but I’m afraid he might have too many lingering obsessions in his heart and isn’t truly sincere towards you. If he truly is sincere, I wouldn’t stop you, but I’m afraid it’s just playing around. Nuannuan, make your own decision, but you must think it through carefully, okay?"

"What are you saying? You know how he treated Nuannuan back then. I don’t want Nuannuan to be with him," her mother said, her eyes red.

"Mom and Dad, I understand. I know my limits. Don’t worry about . If you have ti, find a moving company and move back ho. This place is so damp and humid; you two won’t be used to living here."

"Of course, we’ll move back tomorrow, we’ll move back tomorrow," her mother said. Living in such a small house was difficult for her mother, who had been pampered all her life.

"Sis, your movie is coming out in December, right?"

"Yes, it’s a New Year’s release."

"Yay! I can watch it! I’ve been looking forward to it for so long. My classmates all want your autograph when they find out you’re in it," Wen Jing said proudly. Wen Nuan smiled.

Her mother asked them to stay for dinner. The family hadn’t had a proper al together in a long ti. Wen Nuan thought of Ye Feimo and was torn. Cai Xiaojing couldn’t make the decision, so Wen Nuan ultimately decided against having dinner with her family.

"Mom and Dad, I have sothing important to do tonight and need to go back quickly. I’ll have dinner with you next ti, okay?" Wen Nuan said with a smile, said her goodbyes, and then hurried off with Cai Xiaojing.

She realized she hadn’t had dinner with her family in a long ti.

If it weren’t for what happened today, she would have definitely stayed for dinner.

But the thought of Ye Feimo made her give up this rare mont of joy. Cai Xiaojing and Wen Nuan first went to the supermarket to buy so at, vegetables, fruits, and yogurt—a whole cart full. Cai Xiaojing dropped her off at the Mingcheng Apartnt building. "Don’t talk back to him. Maintain a proper attitude, okay?"

"My attitude has always been proper," Wen Nuan said innocently.
