Chapter 447: Chapter 448: Ruthlessly Suppressing

Yu Yanyu thought more and more that this was exactly the case.

"Sister Qin, what you just said to me is one thing, but don’t talk about it to anyone else. Brother Sheng Yan’s identity... we’d better not discuss it," he said vaguely.

In fact, he was afraid that Qin Siqin would talk recklessly, that someone with motives might overhear and cause trouble not only for her but also for him.

Even though Qin Siqin was reluctant, she also thought that Yanyu made sense and said, "I’ll only talk to you about it."

Yanyu then added, "Don’t talk to me about it in the future, either. I don’t want to hear it."

Unable to resist, Qin Siqin glared at him, her lips moved slightly, but ultimately, she said nothing.

On the other side of the banquet hall, He Jinxia was talking to Sheng Yan, and their conversation was related to Qin Siqin and Yanyu.

He Jinxia said with interest, "Do you know that Qin Siqin and Yanyu are discussing us?"

Sheng Yan raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"

Feigning a look at the scenery where Qin Siqin was, He Jinxia was actually observing their lip movements. After watching for a while, she laughed:

"Qin Siqin says we’re having an affair, and Yanyu thinks it’s impossible. He also said that if we were really dating, it wouldn’t be so public."

Sheng Yan’s eyes twinkled.

Curious, He Jinxia said, "I never thought you could hide it in such a way; I didn’t think of it before, hiding right under the light."

"That’s right, both of us are on the rise in our careers, we’re young, and many stars think it’s impossible for us to date. If we did, it would have to be in private.

So, does this mean that me talking to you now, even if we were a bit closer, no one would find it strange?"

Sheng Yan: "Why don’t you give it a try?"

He Jinxia: "Try what?"

Sheng Yan: "Getting a bit closer to me."

He Jinxia was taken aback, choking up, coughing a few times.

It was supposed to be about closeness; why change the word~~~

She turned her head away, ignoring the smooth-talking scoundrel.

Just then, the director called He Jinxia’s name, summoning her to film a scene.

The scene was a confrontation between Qin Siqin and He Jinxia, not too difficult, yet not too simple, as it was a quarrel scene.

Though called a quarrel scene, it’s putting it modestly; in reality, it was a scene of outright bickering.

In the banquet hall, Qin Siqin and He Jinxia both set their sights on the ten-carat diamond ring in Yanyu’s hand, a jewel that could be passed down as a family heirloom.

It’s said that one should not flaunt wealth, yet such an eye-catching treasure caught the attention of the two Female Thieves, surely inciting them to vie for it.

Yet, as the two fought tooth and nail over the ownership of the diamond, they were unaware that Yanyu, the Divine Thief, was also waiting for someone to take the bait.

The attendees of the banquet were all either rich or noble with ample fortunes. Yanyu wasn’t greedy; he just wanted to relieve the two of their wealth, and that diamond was the perfect lure for someone to come over and strike up a conversation.

According to the script, the two Female Thieves and one Male Thief encounter each other, each coveting the other’s treasures, resulting in Sheng Yan, the passing Divine Thief, taking advantage of the situation and stealing away the diamond.

Unfortunately, as authentic as the diamond looked, Sheng Yan realized its weight was off as soon as he held it, knowing it was a fake and nonchalantly tossed it aside.

The two Female Thieves also realized it was a fake, swore at Yanyu a few times, and then stopped trying to take it from him, turning around and walking away.

Only Yu Yanyu, in the end, took back the counterfeit pigeon’s egg and kissed it harshly a few times.

When he saw no one was around, he quietly rotated the ring’s face, triggering a switch that separated the fake diamond from the ring, and within the fake diamond, there lay hidden a real diamond, containing a genuine pigeon’s egg.

After that, he hid the diamond inside his phone case.

Now, He Jinxia and Qin Siqin were about to shoot the opening argument scene.

As the clapperboard sounded the start of filming, He Jinxia’s facial expression changed abruptly, her gentle phoenix eyes becoming sharp, staring fiercely at Qin Siqin, her imposing aura rising and immediately pressuring Qin Siqin immensely.

The next second, He Jinxia laughed, and to onlookers, all her fierceness seemed to have vanished, but Qin Siqin didn’t feel that way at all. Instead, she felt the pressure mounting even more.

If He Jinxia’s previous aura was like an unhidden ferocious beast, now it was like a king beast waiting to pounce, equally daunting.

He Jinxia hooked her lips, her voice gentle, "Sister, you—want to fight with me for this?"

Logically, Qin Siqin should have replied the next second, "Little sister, it is you who wants to fight with your sister for this."

But on set, Qin Siqin’s mind went blank, filled only with the image of He Jinxia glaring and smirking at her, which was a bit disquieting.

"I..."

"Cut! Let’s do it again!!" the director shouted without hesitation, "Qin Siqin, you only have a few lines, don’t forget them, go back and look at your script again!"

Qin Siqin came back to her senses, her head hanging down in some shame.

She hurriedly picked up the script to review her lines until she had memorized them well, then they started filming again.

As the clapperboard sounded once more, He Jinxia’s aura changed again with it, that fierce look chilling Qin Siqin to the bone, her expression too frightening.

With only that look etched in her mind, Qin Siqin felt dazed as He Jinxia’s lines came through softly, "Sister, you—want to fight with me for this?"

Qin Siqin tried hard to steady her nerves and opened her mouth, "Little sister—"

"Cut!" The director shouted once again, "Qin Siqin, where is the expression on your face? Didn’t I note in the script that you should also smile? Why aren’t you smiling? And your expression is too stiff, this won’t do!"

Qin Siqin’s head drooped once more as she was scolded, feeling a wave of irritation.

Something felt off to her, but she couldn’t pinpoint what was the cause of this feeling.

Soon, they went for the third take of the scene.

As the clapperboard was struck again, He Jinxia’s aura and expression shifted once more.

From behind the camera, one would think He Jinxia’s portrayal was spot on, but only Qin Siqin, sharing the scene with He Jinxia, felt like she was acting with a completely different person.

Just like the character described in the script, He Jinxia was her adversary, and if given the chance, she would definitely take her down!

He Jinxia hooked her lips with a smile, her body leaning slightly forward, her expression rebellious, yet her tone was gentle, "Sister, you—want to fight with me for it?"

The director’s pupils dilated with excitement. This expression, this gesture, he hadn’t thought of it!

Yes, that’s it, this was the character he wanted!!

Qin Siqin barely came back to her senses, a forced smile crossing her lips, clearly a smile but giving off a strained feeling, as if she was grimacing, "Little sister, it is you who wants to fight with your sister—"

"Cut, cut, cut!"

For the third time, Qin Siqin failed again.
