The Queen's Rumored Father

If at first everyone thought that Yi Yangqianxi's performance was just a coincidence, then what happened next showed everyone that it wasn't!

His amazing performances are consistent!

When Long Bo beat the drum, Cui Qi died in battle, and Li Bi, in the distance, hated Long Bo with all his might. He desperately wanted to rush up and kill Long Bo, but he also had to escape; he had to flee.

This inner turmoil, this grief and indignation, this hint of cowardice beneath the righteous indignation—all were perfectly captured by Yi Yangqianxi.

Today, Jackson Yee's acting skills are phenomenal!

But the surprises didn't end there.

Besides Yi Yangqianxi, the actor who played Yao Runeng also delivered a phenomenal performance today.

While Cui Qi was battling Long Bo's men, Yao Runeng was peeking from behind the door. He too was fully armored and armed, yet he dared not rush out. He knew that rushing out meant certain death.

Cui Qi can die, because his death can prove to the Cui brothers that they are not cowards.

But Yao Ru can't die. If he dies, the glory of the Yao family will never be able to be revived.

That's why Yao Runeng struggled with fear, cowardice, self-blame, and other emotions.

In the end, he cried!

She cried terribly, but not in an exaggerated way. She cried uncontrollably, but without any affectation.

Yao Runeng gave it his all and brought this scene to life!

"Great!" Cao Dun and Chen Kewen slammed their fists on the table and stood up. The acting was superb!

Today's scene is very likely to become one of the highlights in the early to mid-stages of Chang'an's broadcast. This scene was so wonderful; Xu Yuan's consistently high-level performance, Yi Yangqianxi's superb acting, and the actor playing Yao Runeng's outstanding performance complemented each other perfectly.

The three of them joined forces to present the audience with a visual feast and a veritable banquet of acting prowess.

When Yao Runeng cried, only Yi Yangqianxi could understand his true feelings.

There's no need to act, and this isn't acting.

This is seriously scary!

……

"Qianxi acted so well today." Meng Xiaoxuan propped her head up, lay on Xu Yuan's bed with her legs up, and was incredibly lively. "And Yao Runeng too. When will I be able to act like them?"

"Qianxi has great potential. He's very serious about his work." Xu Yuan also praised Yi Yangqianxi a few times, but he felt something was off.

Why was Qianxi's body shaking so much when she met him recently?

Is it false?

Surely not, they're young after all.

"Yuan, something's happened, Yuan'er!"

From afar, Lei Jiayin's noise could be heard.

As is customary, anything he says is bound to be bad.

He stormed into the room, pointed at his phone, and said, "You're trending!"

Xu Yuan raised an eyebrow. He was trending on social media?

impossible!

It would be more accurate to say that Yan Zhen was too frivolous.

Xu Yuan, Meng Xiaoxuan's personal assistant and the actor who played Long Bo in The Longest Day in Chang'an, why is he trending on Weibo?

Xu Yuan opened his phone and was speechless.

That's why Yi Yangqianxi can't be considered half a traffic star.

So it's because of him.

"Shocking! Xu Yuan, the modern-day film set tyrant and bully of the Chang'an film crew!"

This trending topic originated from Yi Yangqianxi's mother fans today.

Speaking of "mommy fans," they're a rather peculiar breed. Their care for Yi Yangqianxi is meticulous; they're always present on set.

Today, Yi Yangqianxi delivered a stellar performance, including several scenes where he had to fight with Long Bo.

Xu Yuan's style has always been about getting serious.

Everyone knows this.

So when it was torn, some red marks appeared on Yi Yangqianxi's delicate skin.

But in reality, Yi Yangqianxi's beating of Xu Yuan was also very severe; it's just that the older man's rough skin prevented it from showing.

This caused an uproar among the mom fans.

It spread like wildfire on Weibo.

Yi Yangqianxi, who has just reached the level of a second-tier celebrity, doesn't have many fans, just over four million, which is only two or three times that of Lei Jiayin. However, the group fans of him and his two friends, forming TFBOYS, are much larger, exceeding thirty million!

This repost will cause quite a stir.

This sparked heated discussions at the time.

Then, with the help of those with ulterior motives, more and more clips were exposed.

"Why is Xu Yuan so arrogant, choking famous actress Li Yuan?" The accompanying picture has two images: one of Xu Yuan choking Li Yuan, and the other is a close-up of Li Yuan's neck afterward, where bruises can be clearly seen.

"Why him? Insider information suggests that Xu Yuan, who plays Long Bo, was only confirmed on the last day!"

"Backdoor deals, assaulting actors, bullying on set—exposing the truth behind Xu Yuan, who seemingly sprang from nowhere!"

These topics sparked heated discussions, but what ultimately propelled Xu Yuan to the top of the trending searches was a Weibo post retweeted by Yang Ying: "What makes Xu Yuan stand out? Because of Meng Xiaoxuan!"

The accompanying images are two WeChat screenshots and a photograph.

The screenshot on WeChat mainly states that Xu Yuan is Meng Xiaoxuan's personal assistant, and it is because of this that he got the role of Long Bo and was able to act so domineeringly on set.

It was also said that many actors in the crew disliked Xu Yuan.

The photo in question was of Xu Yuan knocking down all the male actors, capturing the moment when he stepped over Yao Runeng and reached out to take the milk tea handed to him by Meng Xiaoxuan.

I must say, this photo captures the essence perfectly.

Yao Runeng lay on the ground, his expression pained.

Yi Yangqianxi is lying in the far corner of the photo, with the same pained expression, and tears are about to come out.

Xu Yuan remained expressionless, strode forward, and reached out his hand, seemingly arrogant and domineering, as if no one else was there.

Meng Xiaoxuan then offered her milk tea with concern.

You have to understand how popular Meng Xiaoxuan was at that time! Half of the entertainment industry was talking about her every day!

Since this matter is related to Meng Xiaoxuan, it was destined to trend on social media.

The evidence seemed conclusive, and netizens, unable to contain their curiosity, launched a furious attack!

"Damn, this trash who got in through connections is so damn arrogant!"

"How dare he choke my goddess! I'll go to Xiangshan tomorrow and chop him up!"

"Oh my god, poor Millennium! I'm so angry! Why doesn't his agency sue him?!"

"Poor Yao Runeng, nobody knows me and nobody cares about me."

"Notice that photo. Lei Jiayin's expression is still blank. He's probably terrified by Xu Yuan's brutality. For a male lead in a TV series to be scared like this is simply insane."

"The person upstairs is overinterpreting it. My Lei Datou is like this every day."

"If Meng Xiaoxuan's assistant is like this, how arrogant must Meng Xiaoxuan be?"

"Hilarious! Someone actually said before that Meng Xiaoxuan never acts like a diva, now they've proven them wrong."

Soon, public opinion shifted from Xu Yuan to Meng Xiaoxuan. This was clearly a deliberate manipulation, and if the rumors weren't dispelled in time, Meng Xiaoxuan's situation would become very dangerous.

Once the entire internet starts to smear you, everything you do will be wrong.

Yuan San San, Huang Xiaoming, and others have personally verified this: no matter how big your name is, if you're universally criticized online, you're basically done for. Even if you can make a comeback, it will take five, six, seven, or eight years.

But they can wait, while Meng Xiaoxuan can't.

She can't afford to lose!

Beep beep!

Xu Yuan answered the phone; it was Chen Kewen.

"The photos and screenshots of the conversation belong to stagehand Xiao Liuqian. He packed his things and left this afternoon. Lao Cao and I will boycott him across the entire industry, and we will also issue a statement immediately to clear his name."

Xu Yuan nodded.

But that's not enough, far from enough!
