Huayu Entertainment Starts with Xiang Yu, the Hegemon of Western Chu

Since he thought of "iPartment," Jiang Yang visited a new friend before leaving the group:

Liu Mengmeng.

The two did not have any scenes together, because Princess Qionghua, whom she played, died before Yang Guang became the crown prince, while in Li Yuanba's storyline, Emperor Yang of Sui was almost dead.

Although it's not apparent from the drama, the historical timeline shows a difference of more than ten years, which is essentially two generations.

Since that's the case, the two of them naturally won't be assigned to the same group, since they're both in Hengdian anyway.

However, Liu Mengmeng visited Jiangyang twice.

It's said that she has more free time on her end. If Li Yuanba is just a minor supporting character with few scenes, then Princess Qionghua's role is not much different from a cameo.

It would be impolite not to reciprocate, Jiang Yang thought, and decided to tell her before he left.

When they arrived, they found nothing there.

It wasn't that Liu Mengmeng wasn't there; it was just that it was her turn to perform.

Jiang Yang wasn't in a hurry and waited patiently.

This scene was filmed by the pond. In the plot, Princess Qionghua was drowned by Yang Guang, and then she deliberately invited Yang Yong to the scene to frame the unfortunate man.

Great shot, so great shot!

Since Princess Qionghua was already a corpse, Liu Mengmeng only needed to close her eyes and be thrown into the water.

When she came out after changing into her costume and putting on makeup, she could hardly believe her eyes when she saw Jiang Yang mixed in with the staff.

Upon closer inspection, it really is!

She was overjoyed. She had always gone to see him herself before, and this was the first time Jiang Yang had come to her.

Liu Mengmeng waved excitedly, and Jiang Yang also waved back from afar. However, since the staff were already in place and filming was about to begin, she did not leave without permission.

I gestured a few times in the air, roughly meaning that I would come to find you after I finished taking the picture.

Jiang Yang nodded, half guessing and half deciphering.

So she was finally able to film in peace and closed her eyes peacefully.

The scene was designed so that Princess Qionghua, who had already died, was being pulled by an invisible thin rope, pretending to be sitting by the pond enjoying the scenery.

Yang Yong stepped forward to greet her, but as soon as he touched her, the eunuch who had been hiding loosened the rope, and Princess Qionghua fell into the water.

Then he started shouting.

"Oh no! The Crown Prince has pushed Princess Qionghua into the water!"

Actually, this scenario is not very rigorous. In ancient times, etiquette was highly valued. Even siblings might not touch hands when greeting each other, so wouldn't it be a waste of time to prepare?

Anyway, "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" is not a serious historical drama, it's just that kind of thing.

Filming has officially begun.

The camera focuses on Yang Yong in this scene. He is confused when Qionghua falls into the water, even more confused when he is framed, and only realizes at the end that it is a trap.

The filming went smoothly, and we got it right in one take.

The staff easily stepped forward to tidy up, switch scenes, and prepare for the next scene.

Hmm, it seems like I forgot something?

By the time these guys remembered, it was too late. Jiang Yang jumped into the water with a splash.

That's right.

There are still people in the pool!

Jiang Yang was the first to notice that Liu Mengmeng hadn't come up yet. Without hesitation, he jumped into the water to rescue her. While the people around him were trying to help, they had already pushed the water-choking Liu Mengmeng ashore.

At this moment, she was completely unconscious.

Jiang Yang acted decisively and immediately performed CPR on her.

Fortunately, the time she choked on the water was short, and Liu Mengmeng finally woke up after spitting out a few mouthfuls of water.

What's going on?

The first face she saw when she opened her eyes was Jiang Yang's. As she gradually regained consciousness, she learned the whole story from the chatter of others.

The crew was also very relieved; thankfully, nothing serious happened.

Liu Mengmeng originally had a few more scenes to film, but the director gave her a break.

"Go back and calm down first, we'll film another day."

Liu Mengmeng did not refuse.

She was soaking wet and looked quite disheveled. Having just narrowly escaped death, she was also in a state of turmoil and definitely needed to tidy herself up.

The task of escorting them naturally fell to Jiang Yang.

Back at the hotel, Liu Mengmeng was still half asleep when she went into the bathroom.

As the hot water poured over her, she suddenly realized something.

I forgot to see Jiang Yang off.

I was taking a shower inside, and he was listening outside. Isn't that a bit...?

Are you being too informal?

This discovery made her blush, but fortunately, the natural blush rising from her skin amidst the steam covered up her shyness.

That day, Cheng Lidong pointed at her, and Liu Mengmeng felt somewhat awkward when facing Jiang Yang again.

I always felt like I had ulterior motives.

I went to see him twice, but I didn't know how to proceed.

She thought she had returned empty-handed, but unexpectedly Jiang Yang came by himself today. Just as she was feeling happy, he suddenly pulled this "hero saves the beauty" act.

Could it be the will of Heaven?

As she was thinking this, Jiang Yang's eyes lit up when she came out.

Because Liu Mengmeng was only wearing a bath towel, her wet hair was draped over her fair and tender shoulders, and her toes were curled up in a coy manner, she was a vision of Nuolan herself.

Compared to period costumes, modern clothes definitely suit her better.

Pure and seductive style!

It's said that Nolan was chosen from thousands of people for "iPartment 3," so the production team has good taste.

"Thank you for earlier."

"You're welcome, it's nothing."

Liu Mengmeng was also very nervous. After noticing Jiang Yang's appreciation, she dared not look up and meet his gaze.

She clutched her chest tightly, as if afraid the bath towel would suddenly fall off.

She had hoped to ease the awkward atmosphere by chatting, but after only a couple of sentences, she learned from Jiang Yang that he had already finished filming.

"What? You're leaving?"

"Yes, I just finished filming my last scene before coming here. I just wanted to say hello."

Liu Mengmeng became anxious.

I thought things were making some progress, but it turned out to be the last time we saw each other.

This isn't how it turned out!

On second thought, Jiang Yang indeed didn't have many scenes in "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties," which was known from the beginning. Not to mention him, even I would have to finish filming my own scenes.

The entertainment industry isn't that big, but it's not that small either. After this collaboration, everyone goes their separate ways, and who knows when the next one will be.

Ten or eight years is quite normal.

Liu Mengmeng's clothes were still wet and slippery, and in her haste, she slipped and fell right into Jiang Yang's arms.

What's even more interesting is that the bath towel that was originally being held in my hand was also torn open, barely covering my bare body.

Wow, is this considered throwing herself into someone's arms?

She didn't dare open her eyes at all, so she simply closed them and steeled her resolve.

do not care.

I didn't expect it to happen so soon, but time waits for no one.

Let it be, let it be, repaying a debt of gratitude...

on!

Liu Mengmeng hooked her arm around Jiang Yang's neck and kissed him with unwavering courage.

Jiang Yang was a little surprised. He had sensed Liu Mengmeng's intentions before, but he didn't expect it to turn out like this.

but……

If you push him away at this moment, how are you any different from a beast?

Liu Mengmeng was quickly overtaken, like a small boat in a stormy sea, drifting and swaying aimlessly, unaware of her surroundings.
