Chapter 173 A Beautified Version of Gao Yuanyuan
At 6 p.m. on November 24, after arranging all the work for the Pacific Rim project, Jiang Yifeng took a car to the VIP terminal of Beijing Capital International Airport.

After waiting in the VIP lounge for a while, I saw Gao Yuanyuan, Yang Mi, Zhang Songwen, Qiao Shan and others walk in.

Yang Mi was pleasantly surprised to see Jiang Yifeng.

She came running over, laughing, and said, "Director Jiang, you've finally had a change of heart! You even came to pick me up at the airport. Are you trying to surprise me?"

"hehe."

Jiang Yifeng completely ignored Yang Mi, hugged Gao Yuanyuan who was behind her, and then kissed her.

"How are you feeling? You seem to have lost a lot of weight."

After the premiere of Dark Glory, in addition to promoting the show domestically, the production team also went to countries and regions such as Japan, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand for promotional activities.

The trip abroad lasted a total of 20 days. Gao Yuanyuan also caught a cold and often complained to Jiang Yifeng for comfort.

Jiang Yifeng claims to be a cold-blooded and ruthless scumbag, but in reality, he is quite sentimental.

He and Gao Yuanyuan had spent a long time together and developed genuine feelings for each other.

Moreover, Jiang Yifeng knew in his heart that if something really happened to him now, and he was penniless and powerless, Gao Yuanyuan would definitely be one of the women who would still be willing to stay with him.

Gao Yuanyuan leaned against Jiang Yifeng's chest, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "Your scent is the best; it instantly makes me feel safe~"

Jiang Yifeng stroked Gao Yuanyuan's hair and scolded her, "I told you to go back to China sooner, but you didn't listen. Don't try to tough it out next time; even a cold can kill you."

Hearing Jiang Yifeng's concern, Gao Yuanyuan felt warm inside and was very pleased, her smile was very sweet.

"It's not that serious. I just have a minor cold, no high fever, just a headache and sore throat."

“If it really gets serious, do you think I’ll let you do whatever you want?” Jiang Yifeng said. “Your team is now my employees.”

"Yes, yes, yes, now my every move is under your control, I have no privacy at all."

"What? You want freedom?"

"I love swimming in your ocean; there is no freedom anywhere else."

Yang Mi: "..."

Hearing Gao Yuanyuan and Jiang Yifeng's nauseatingly sweet conversation, Yang Mi felt utterly disgusted.

She deliberately said loudly, "Let's hurry up and leave, or we'll get stuck in traffic!"

Jiang Yifeng looked at Yang Mi and said, "You go first, I'll go with Yuanyuan."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi was furious, her previously pleasant mood completely ruined.

She looked at Gao Yuanyuan's chest, then at her own, and felt extremely resentful.

He froze on the spot, refusing to move.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Shan and the others quickly greeted Jiang Yifeng and fled.

Gao Yuanyuan was in a good mood, so she said, "Let Yang Mi come along. I'm not fully recovered yet, and I need help tonight too."

Jiang Yifeng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll call Qin Lan over too."

Yang Mi couldn't help but interject, "Why do you always call Qin Lan whenever I'm around?"

Jiang Yifeng countered, "Do you really have to ask that? The answer might be quite hurtful."

Yang Mi: "..."

Yang Mi took a deep breath and said, "Considering how well Dark Glory 2 is playing, I won't hold it against you!"

The second season of Dark Glory was even more successful than the first season.

Especially in overseas markets.

Because of the success of the first season, YouTube gave Dark Glory 2 the highest traffic recommendation, and Jiang Yifeng also did an English dubbing, which attracted many European and American viewers.

It achieved an average viewership rating of 31% in Japan, making it the highest-rated TV station in Toyama this year.

After the broadcast of Dark Glory 2, Gao Yuanyuan's popularity continued to rise, and the title of Dark Queen became very well-known. In terms of popularity, she has already reached the level of a top-tier star.

However, due to censorship, this drama was not able to be broadcast on domestic television stations and therefore could not be nominated for mainstream awards.

Gao Yuanyuan lacks awards, and her so-called status hasn't kept up.

The biggest beneficiaries were Zhang Songwen and Wang Ou, who rose to fame overnight, jumping from third- or fourth-tier celebrities to near-second-tier stars.

His career has undergone a complete transformation.

Yang Mi also reaped considerable rewards.

In this drama, Jiang Yifeng gave her many sexy close-ups.

Yang Mi's strength is on full display.

This made Yang Mi stand out and her popularity soared.

For many female viewers, they may know Yang Mi because of the drama "Palace", but for many male viewers, they know Yang Mi because of Mysterious Island.

The scene where Yang Mi vomits while patting her chest in "Mysterious Island" gained her many male fans and helped the terrible movie earn 9000 million yuan at the box office.

The airing of Dark Glory 2 has had a much greater effect on boosting Yang Mi's popularity than Mysterious Island.

She also gained international exposure, securing several endorsements and doubling her performance fees.

In addition, Yang Mi's acting skills in Dark Glory 2 have also received praise, and her reputation has improved significantly.

These are all real benefits.

As a result, Yang Mi herself felt confident enough to discuss with Zeng Jia and Zhao Ruoyao that she would not sign with any company again, but instead start her own studio and go solo ahead of schedule.

This is why Yang Mi refused to leave.

On the surface, she seemed angry, but in reality, she just wanted to cling to Jiang Yifeng's coattails.

In Yang Mi's opinion, she only played the second female lead and she took off. If she could play the female lead, she would be on cloud nine!
Winter had arrived, and Jiang Yifeng, along with Gao Yuanyuan and Yang Mi, found a hot pot restaurant.

A short while later, Qin Lan also arrived.

After the four of them finished eating hot pot, they went to Gao Yuanyuan's house to play mahjong.

Gao Yuanyuan was very envious when she saw Jiang Yifeng playing the dulcimer.

She looked at her own physical condition and could only hope that things would get better after she had a baby.

However, Gao Yuanyuan did not give up. She knew that Jiang Yifeng liked her single ponytail the most, and in the end, she was the one who ate the most.

After finishing the mahjong game, Jiang Yifeng felt refreshed and was about to speak when he received a system notification.

[Work: Dark Glory Season 2. Quality: 3 stars. A very emotional revenge drama with a complete script structure, and the visuals and soundtrack are quite good.]

However, the entire series is too commercialized, sacrificing logic and depth for the sake of pacing and emotion. Overall, it is a well-made sequel.

Performance: 5 stars. It once again set a new record for online drama revenue, with an overall return rate of over 10 times and an absolute return of over 1 million. It opened up the market for online dramas, and more and more companies began to invest in and produce them.

Impact of the work: 5 stars. The total number of views of the entire series on Sohu Video and YouTube platforms exceeds 10 billion, and it has been broadcast on TV stations in 16 countries and regions overseas.

The series became a hit in the Pan-Asian region and had a significant international impact, becoming one of the benchmark works for the overseas export of Chinese web dramas.

Overall rating: 4 stars, rewarding 2 excellent draw chances or 6 regular draw chances.

Shall we start the prize draw now?

Dark Glory Season 2 still gets a 4-star rating.

Jiang Yifeng was prepared for this outcome.

After thinking for a moment, he still went to the "treasure trove of toilets" and chose two excellent-level lottery draws.

[Congratulations, host! You have drawn the blue talent "Sharp Ears and Eyes".]

[Sharp eyesight and hearing: Your vision and hearing range are better than average, and your perception is also quite acute.]

As the system prompted him, Jiang Yifeng felt a cool sensation in his head, especially around his eyes and ears, which felt refreshingly cool.

The enhancement ended after about ten seconds.

Jiang Yifeng looked up and could see the texture of the ceiling clearly. He listened carefully and heard that Gao Yuanyuan was chatting with Qin Lan next door.

"You stole it again today. Didn't you say your throat was sore?"

"So what if I'm uncomfortable? As long as my husband is comfortable, I can endure it."

"Ugh, that's disgusting!"

"What are you disgusted about? You didn't get any, I ate them all."

"Does it really have beauty benefits?"

"Anyway, my condition is getting better and better."

……

This gift of sharp hearing and eyesight is truly very practical; both hearing and vision have been enhanced, and overall perception has also improved.

Jiang Yifeng was in a good mood and continued drawing prizes.

[Congratulations, host! You have drawn the blue item "Beauty Potion".]

[Beauty potion: After taking it, it can appropriately enhance one's appearance and increase personal charm according to individual physical characteristics.]

Seeing the reward, Jiang Yifeng felt that he hadn't washed his hands and was having bad luck.

His charm value doesn't need to be increased anymore. Although this beauty potion is blue, it has no effect on Jiang Yifeng.

However, upon closer reflection, he had drawn the golden talent "Internal Strength" in the last lottery, so drawing this item this time was a combination of probability and luck.

Looking at the beauty potion in his hand, Jiang Yifeng thought for a moment and decided to use it on Gao Yuanyuan.

On one hand, Jiang Yifeng really likes Gao Yuanyuan and is attracted to her looks; the two have a very good relationship. On the other hand, Gao Yuanyuan is getting older and needs beauty treatments to maintain her appearance.

Jiang Yifeng poured a glass of warm water, dissolved the medicine in it, and handed it to Gao Yuanyuan.

"Your cold isn't completely gone yet. Drink more water, get a good night's sleep, and you'll be fully recovered tomorrow."

In fact, Gao Yuanyuan's cold was almost cured, and drinking water before bed would only make her wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

But she felt both sweet and proud in the face of Jiang Yifeng's concern.

After glancing at Qin Lan and Yang Mi, who were filled with envy, Gao Yuanyuan finished her glass of water.

"This water tastes so good! I think it has a slightly sweet taste. Thank you, honey!"

"Haha, this is a love potion, it will make you follow me wholeheartedly."

"Do you still have this water? Give me some more, I want to stay with you forever~"

The disgusting conversation made Qin Lan and Yang Mi feel nauseous. They exchanged a glance and said in unison, "I'm going to sleep next door!"

Then he left the master bedroom.

Jiang Yifeng's claim that the beauty potion was a love potion wasn't entirely unfounded.

The system-produced drugs, when given to others by Jiang Yifeng, will have "side effects," affecting a person's gene sequence and thus impacting their overall perception, including smell, taste, and sight.

In layman's terms, the potion itself belongs to Jiang Yifeng and carries Jiang Yifeng's "flavor".

Others who drink it will have a better impression of Jiang Yifeng.

Jiang Yifeng observed Gao Yuanyuan after she took the medicine, but didn't see any changes, so he went to bed to rest.

When Gao Yuanyuan woke up the next morning, she was still sleeping.

Jiang Yifeng turned his head and was completely amazed.

Her skin was fair and delicate, her features were exquisite, and even her hair was black and smooth.

This beauty potion is really something; it truly lives up to its blue-tier name.

At this time, Gao Yuanyuan's appearance and temperament had shed their youthful naiveté, becoming mature and sophisticated, both sweet and alluring, and her physical condition seemed to have made her several years younger.

She's practically a beautified version of Gao Yuanyuan!

Jiang Yifeng was intrigued and turned over to test the results.

Half asleep and half awake, Gao Yuanyuan instinctively cooperated with Jiang Yifeng.

Once they were fully awake, they worked together even better.

Jiang Yifeng noticed that Gao Yuanyuan looked completely different; her skin was firm, and her strength had also increased slightly.

After the party, Jiang Yifeng was worried about how to explain things.

But it turns out there's no need for explanation at all.

No one would have thought of a cheat code. Gao Yuanyuan believed it was the result of her continuous gluttony. Little by little, a quantitative change eventually led to a qualitative change, and it was all due to the magical power of love.

So much so that Qin Lan's eyes turned green with envy when she saw Gao Yuanyuan's transformation.

She looked at Jiang Yifeng as if he were Tang Sanzang.
