Huayu Entertainment: It was the young actress who took the initiative.

Chapter 90 Meng Ziyi: I've become an ex-wife?

That evening, after the press conference ended, Chen Mo returned home and took a shower when his phone started vibrating incessantly.

He dried his hair, walked to the coffee table, and picked up his phone.

Wang Lihua was the first to jump out: "Have you seen Weibo? The promotional video for 'Princess Agents' is out, and the comments section is exploding."

77

"Your horseback riding video has been edited out separately and has been shared over 200,000 times."

"Liu Chang said that your Weibo follower growth rate has increased again, and you gained 600,000 followers today."

Chen Mo paused for a moment as he looked at the three messages.

Then he exited WeChat and opened Weibo.

It ranked fifth on the trending topics list.

#Yan Xun riding a horse#

It was followed by a dark red "爆" (explosion) character.

He clicked on it.

The first one is a video posted by the official Weibo account of "Princess Agents".

The caption reads: "#PrincessAgentsYanXun# He is the heir of Yanbei, a dashing young man in fine clothes and riding a spirited horse."

@Actor Chen Mo, how would you rate the horseback riding scene?

Click on the video.

The scene depicts the streets of Chang'an.

The cobblestone path is lined with quaint shops, and the crowds are bustling about.

The sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance.

The crowd automatically parted.

A black horse galloped from the end of the street.

The man on horseback was dressed in a black, close-fitting outfit, with a gold-threaded belt around his waist and a jade crown in his hair.

It is Yan Xun.

It's Chen Mo.

The horse was moving extremely fast, and the sound of its hooves was like a rapid drumbeat.

He leaned forward, almost parallel to the horse's back, with one hand on the reins and the other hanging at his side.

The wind blew his hair ribbon, making it flutter behind him.

The gasps of the crowd, the cries of vendors trying to dodge, the screams of children—

He turned a deaf ear.

He simply spurred his horse forward, like a black lightning bolt, cleaving through the clamor of Chang'an.

The camera zooms in at the end of the street.

He suddenly pulled on the reins.

The black horse raised its front hooves high, almost standing upright.

Sunlight shone from behind him, gilding his silhouette with a golden edge.

His body leaned back slightly with the horse's movement, his arm muscles taut, outlining clear lines.

At that moment, his gaze fell on the camera.

The boy's eyes.

Proud, flamboyant, and arrogant.

That was Yan Xun's gaze.

It belongs to the Prince of Yanbei who has not yet experienced the destruction of his family and the crushing of fate.

Then the horse's hooves came down.

He sat steadily on his horse and gently patted its neck.

The video ends.

The comments section has gone crazy.

The comment with the most likes: "I'm speechless. That horse-reining gesture, that look in his eyes."

"A dashing young man in fine clothes, riding a spirited horse—today I finally understand what that phrase means."

The second most liked comment reads: "I've watched it twenty times."

I couldn't help but scream every time I watched it. How can he be so handsome?!

The third most liked comment reads: "I'm not a fan, but this horseback riding scene is absolutely amazing."

Many actors nowadays use props for horse riding scenes, but was he really riding one?

That speed, that horsemanship—it takes years of practice to achieve that level.

The fourth most liked comment reads: "Holy crap, that look in his eyes! I got goosebumps!"

How does Chen Mo manage to act with just his eyes?

From Donghua to Yang Kang to Yan Xun, his eyes truly spoke volumes.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mo couldn't help but smile.

Keep scrolling down.

"The moment he reined in his horse, the pride and arrogance in his eyes were the kind of look that only a proud son of heaven who has never experienced setbacks would have."

The more I watch, the more curious I become about what Yan Xun went through later that made his eyes so fierce.

There are over three thousand replies to this comment.

The first reply: "Don't even mention it, I'm already crying. The more dazzling they are in the early stages, the more miserable they'll probably be later."

The second reply: "So the look in his eyes when he turned evil later was so shocking, what exactly happened to make him like that?"

Chen Mo has been removed from this trending topic.

Slide down.

It ranked eighth on the trending search list.

#Yan Xun Yuan Chun#

He clicked on it.

The first one is a video clip posted by a marketing account.

The caption reads: "#PrincessAgents# A compilation of clips featuring Yan Xun and Yuan Chun. This couple is just too adorable!"

Click on the video.

Act one.

The Prince of Yanbei's Residence.

Sunlight streamed through the corridor, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

Yan Xun stood under the eaves, holding a scroll in his hand.

Yuan Chun ran over from the other end of the corridor, her skirt fluttering like a joyful butterfly.

"Brother Yan Xun!"

She ran up to him, panting, her face still showing the innocence of a young girl.

Yan Xun raised his head and looked at her.

His eyes held a hint of helplessness and a hint of doting.

"Why have you come here again?"

Yuan Chun blinked: "I missed you."

Yan Xun smiled.

The smile was subtle, but the light in her eyes didn't lie.

Act Two.

The Imperial Garden.

Yuan Chun stood among the flowers, holding a bunch of freshly picked blossoms in her hands.

Yan Xun stood opposite her, looking at her.

Yuan Chun handed him the flowers: "These are for you."

Yan Xun took the flower and lowered his head to smell it.

"It smells very good."

Yuan Chun smiled, a smile more radiant than any flower.

"Then I'll pick flowers for you every day from now on!"

Yan Xun looked at her with eyes as gentle as a pool of spring water.

"it is good."

The video ends.

Comments section: "They definitely have something going on."

"No, look closely, Li Qin's gaze towards Chen Mo is strange."

"I'm totally shipping them!"

"Rational analysis: Both are single, of similar age, work well together, and are good-looking; it would be an injustice if they weren't together."

"Hey, are you the reincarnation of the God of Love?"

"Yan Xun and Yuan Chun were the official couple from the start. They had a tragic ending in the drama, so can they have a happy ending in real life?"

"Investing in Chen Mo and Li Qin now is definitely a sure win!"

"Their chemistry was amazing; they portrayed that childhood sweetheart vibe so realistically."

"Li Lin's Yuan Chun is also amazing. The more naive she is in the early stages, the more broken she becomes in the later stages."

"I watched Chen Mo's change in expression after he turned around five times, and each time it broke my heart."

"They must have a good relationship in private, right? That kind of chemistry can't be faked."

"I don't care, I declare this couple my new crush."

Chen Mo was looking at these comments when he suddenly saw one: "Look at Dilraba's Weibo!"

Chen Mo exited the trending topic and opened Dilraba's Weibo homepage.

Dilraba's latest Weibo post, published ten minutes ago: "I watched the trailer for 'Princess Agents' tonight, and I was blown away by Yan Xun's horseback riding [smirk]".

The accompanying image is a screenshot taken with a mobile phone—it's the scene where Chen Mole is pulling the horse.

The comments section is buzzing: "Dilraba, you watched Chen Mo ride a horse too!"

"Feng Jiu has come to see Yan Xun."

"Emperor Donghua: My lady, shall I ride a horse?"

"Three Lives Three Worlds CP fans are ecstatic."

Dilraba: Chen Mo looks so handsome riding a horse; Chen Mo: Thank you, wife.

"Your account number is gone."

Chen Mo looked at the Weibo post, opened the comments, and typed: "Thank you for your support, Teacher Dilraba. [clasped hands]"

send.

Less than ten seconds later, Dilraba replied: "Teacher Chen Mo, you're welcome. Riding a horse was indeed incredibly cool [doge emoji]".

The interaction between the two was instantly captured in screenshots and went viral in the CP (couple) supertopic.

Meng Ziyi lay on her bed at home, staring at her phone screen, unable to fall asleep the longer she looked.

Fifth on the trending list: #ChenMo looks so cool riding a horse#

Eighth on the trending topics: #ChenMoLiQin'sCP chemistry#

The 16th trending topic: #ChenMo'sEyeActingSkills#

She turned over and buried her face in the pillow.

Three seconds later, it flipped back.

My finger clicked into the hashtag #ChenMoLiQinCPFeel# without my control.

The first one is that edited video.

Scenes of Yan Xun and Yuan Chun together in the early episodes —

Yan Xun looked down at Yuan Chun, his eyes as gentle as spring water.

Yuan Chun looked up and back, her eyes full of trust.

Comments flooded the screen: "They're such a perfect match!"

"I'm okay with this pair."

"There's no time to reminisce about Reba and Sister Meng, now it's Li Lin's turn to appear."

Meng Ziyi bit his lip.

She recalled how, when "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" aired, her "Yang Mu CP" with Chen Mo was also shipped in the same way.

The comments section is full of things like "Love at first sight during the martial arts contest" and "Yang Kang and Mu Nianci are such a great couple."

What now?

What has the comments section become like now?

She clicked on her latest Weibo post.

These are behind-the-scenes photos from "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that I posted a couple of days ago, with the caption "Missing Mu Nianci".

Top of the comments section —

"Nianci, there's no time to reminisce about you, Yan Xun and Yuan Chun are about to make their appearance [doge emoji]"

"Ziyi, your on-screen couple has been broken up."

"Yang Kang has become Yan Xun and is now loving someone else."

Mu Nianci: So love will disappear, right?

Ziyi: I'm an ex-wife now?

Meng Ziyi stared at these comments, his lips twitching.

She slid down.

One comment received a lot of likes: "I've been shipping Yang Mu and now I'm shipping Yan Chun. Don't be sad, Ziyi, you'll always be our white moonlight [candle]".

Mencius's meaning: ? ? ?

What does "candle" mean?

She's not dead yet!!!

Another one: "Mu Nianci is a thing of the past; now it's Yuan Chun's era."

"Hahaha, that's hilarious! Yang Kang just died not long ago, and Chen Mo has already brought out a new CP (couple partner)."

Ziyi: I didn't even have time to grieve.

The more Meng Ziyi looked at it, the angrier he became. But then, in his anger, he laughed.

These fans are really—

She thought for a moment, opened the comment box, and typed: "So now I've become an impotent, furious ex-wife too?"

send.

Within a minute, the comment section exploded.

"Hahahaha, Ziyi saw it!"

"A wife driven to rage by impotence—that's a perfect description."

"Ziyi: I just finished my live stream, and my husband cheated on me."

"Mu Nianci: I haven't even finished enjoying the sweet moments with Yang Kang, and he's already paired up with Yuan Chun."

Ziyi: I'm so angry, but all I can do is rage helplessly.

"I suggest Chen Mo and Li Lin give Zi Yi some money as compensation for emotional distress."

"Ziyi, don't be sad. Your pairing with Chen Mo will never crumble in my heart!"

"Your house up ahead has collapsed; it's now a pile of ruins."

As Meng Ziyi read these comments, he smiled, but then felt a pang of bitterness.

She recalled the time when she was filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

In the scene where Chen Mo walks towards her to choose a husband through martial arts, her blush is genuine.

It wasn't acted.

it is true.

After the director yelled "cut," she hid to the side and covered herself with her hands for a long time.

Chen Mo is now famous, having won the Magnolia Award, and has a new drama and a new on-screen couple.

She is still the same Meng Ziyi.

She sighed and was about to put down her phone when she suddenly saw a new comment: "Ziyi, don't be sour. The Yang Mu CP is forever the best. And haven't you noticed that Chen Mo's CPs, from Yang Kang to Yan Xun, are all tragic love stories that end badly? You just had your bad ending a little earlier."

Meng Ziyi was stunned when he saw this.

Then I laughed out loud.

Was this person trying to comfort her?

Why does it sound more like a finishing blow?

She thought for a moment and replied to the comment: "Thank you, I feel comforted (doge emoji)."

After sending the message, she turned over, placed her phone face down next to her pillow, and then closed her eyes.

My mind is a bit confused.

But for some reason, I felt a little happy.

Because he became famous, which is a good thing.

At least—at least there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future, right?

She recalled how Chen Mo helped everyone promote the film during the promotional period for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

She recalled the day of the fan meeting, when he took a letter from a fan on stage and smiled at her.

He remembered when she sang off-key, he lowered his head and covered his face, but later sent a message saying, "The audience will just laugh it off, it's not like there's a problem with her acting skills."

She turned over and buried her face in the pillow.

"My ex-wife's incompetent rage—"

She muttered something.

Then I laughed at myself.

Forget it.

Ex-wife it is.

At least—she's a "wife."

My phone vibrated again.

She reached over and squinted at it.

It was a message from Chen Mo: "I saw it trending on social media, about his ex-wife?"

Meng Ziyi stared at the line of text, his face suddenly feeling hot.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and she typed: "Yeah, are you home now?"
