Chapter 596: Si Fuqing: Training Your Hearts ‘Ability to Handle Things (2)
Translator: _Min_
No one knew who the mysterious Jiu the God truly was, yet she was determined to have Qingqing get the photo.
The filming of “Crossing the Demon Realm” had surpassed its midway point, and at long last, the official Weibo account of the production team released its first behind-the-scenes footage.
Much to the eager anticipation of the fans who couldn’t wait to dive in.
This particular snippet captured the very first incarnation of Sui Yan.
Taken to the heavens by the Celestial Ruler, everything about the Celestial Palace was novel to her.
As she emerged from a peach tree, curiosity sparkled in her eyes.
Such a simple look, yet it managed to peel away layers of emotion. In this first life, Sui Yan’s attire, a mix of cyan and white, exuded a simple elegance.
Whether it was RM’s promotional videos or the cover of “Graceful Beauty” magazine, Si Fuqing always embraced a traditional style.
This new costume provided a visual feast of a different kind.
The adage “proper makeup always suits” couldn’t be more fitting for her.
[Wow, with such beauty, she should star in a sweet romance drama! Even as a woman, I’m smitten.]
[Her beauty is undeniable… She makes the other female celestials look like mere backdrops. Is the Celestial Ruler blind? How could he not fall for her?]
[The Celestial Ruler did fall for her later, a blow both to his spirit and body. Just thinking about it is satisfying. Serves him right!]
[I’m a bit worried about the later parts of the story. Can she pull it off? Sui Yan later becomes a goddess ruling over the three realms. This drama is indeed challenging to film, with a character arc that varies greatly. It’s easy to overdo it.]
[Versatile Qingqing, you deserve the best. From a devoted fan, I tell you, this woman can pull off any role!]
[Where’s the cross-dressing scene? Hurry up! Isn’t she often disguised as a man in her second visit to the Mortal Realm?]
Si Fuqing’s studio also shared this Weibo post.
The Mousses were delighted with new editing footage and spreading the word joyously.
However, the cross-dressing scene had only just begun filming.
Si Fuqing, having changed into men’s clothing, emerged from the makeup room, “Director Tang, I’m ready.” Tang Haiqiu looked up, “Oh, ready then—I’
His words hung in the air.
Everyone around paused their tasks, frozen in place.
Standing tall at 1.75m, Si Fuqing’s height, coupled with her men’s attire, did not diminish her presence.
A heavy sword slung over her back complemented her upright stature perfectly, and her makeup added a touch of rugged beauty.
A phrase surfaced in Tang Haiqiu’s mind—
In white attire, her heart is embroidered with brocade.
She possessed a pure (selfless) demeanor and harbored a noble (beautiful) character within her heart.
Si Fuqing adjusted her hairpin, raising an eyebrow, “Any issues? Need any adjustments?”
People snapped back to reality.
“No, no… The issue is you’re too handsome. It’s hard for people to keep their composure.”
“You can’t even tell she’s a woman! She looks exactly like a handsome young man!”
“Isn’t she even more handsome than those male top-tiers?”
“Director Tang, you can definitely cast Teacher Si in your next project. She could carry a whole show by herself.”
Actors in the crew had sought Si Fuqing’s advice on their performances.
Even if it wasn’t her role, she understood it deeply.
Such talent was indeed frightening.
Tang Haiqiu, now accustomed to her excellence, declared, “Let’s start filming.”
Without exception, the scene was a one-take success, leading to an early wrap for the day and considerable savings on the budget.
Tang Haiqiu pondered whether Si Fuqing’s hard work was actually a way to save money.
“I haven’t asked you yet about how you managed to send someone flying with a single strike last time,” Tang Haiqiu didn’t let Si Fuqing slip away. “Do you know martial arts?”
“No,” Si Fuqing wiped her sweat, “wasn’t it the props team who used wires to pull him across?”
Tang Haiqiu, “…Did you know I had to convince the props team that I used a
new type of prop?”
“Oh.” Si Fuqing, ever adaptable, admitted, “Well, I do know a bit of martial arts.”
She had merely used a trace of the power of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements.
With a weary wave, Tang Haiqiu dismissed her, “You may go.”
As Si Fuqing removed her makeup.
Yuejian admired her face for a moment then said, “Little junior sister, if you were a man, I’d pursue you.”
“Stop right there,” Si Fuqing arched her eyebrows, a hint of amusement in her tone. “Third senior sister, your charms won’t work on me. You can’t even remember my face, let alone deceive me. Who knows how many young men’s hearts you’ve already ensnared.”
Yuejian sighed, “Can’t help it. Being an evolved being with psychic abilities, my brain works too well, leaving my eyes a bit shortchanged. If both worked perfectly, what chance would others have?”
Si Fuqing was silent. 𝗳re𝗲𝚠e𝐛n𝗼v𝗲l.c𝐨𝐦
That makes sense.
After removing her makeup, she began packing her luggage. “Off to the Western Continent again. I hope I don’t run into any old acquaintances this time.”
“Don’t worry. Your old friends don’t know you’re a star. You could stand right in front of them, and they wouldn’t recognize you,” Yuejian shrugged.
Just then, her phone rang.
It was Ji Yun.
“What’s up?” Si Fuqing answered.
“You’re a star now, right?” Ji Yun got straight to the point. “Interested in becoming the spokesperson for Oracle? Consider it a favor from me, helping to boost your international fame.”
Si Fuqing pondered for a moment before replying, not immediately accepting. “How much is the endorsement fee? RM is paying me five hundred million a year.”
“Through most of that sum was donated to chanty, and Little Bal consumed a portion of the remainder. Ji Yun offered, “…I’ll give you one billion.”
Si Fuqing readily agreed, “Deal.”
Ji Yun was taken aback.
She’s only into money now.
Had she always been such a gold eater?
He hadn’t noticed before. Any other star might have accepted the endorsement without a fee.
“You need to outshine other stars to be convincing,” Ji Yun added. “Some of the stars competing in the Western Continent are top-tier gamers with APM over three hundred. Can you beat that? They are Challengers, so not easily to fake. If not, I might not choose a spokesperson at all.”
“I’m confident,” Si Fuqing replied nonchalantly, “Didn’t I mention my APM starts at five hundred? Don’t worry, I’ll tone it down to three hundred.”
Ji Yun, curious, pressed, “What’s your gaming alias? What class do you play? Tell me, I promise not to share.”
“No,” Si Fuqing flatly refused, “You’ll find out when the time comes. For now, train on your heart’s endurance. I won’t be responsible for treating any heart issues.”
Ultimately, Ji Yun chose to protect his own heart, “Apologies, I’m hanging up.”
After, he summoned his secretary. “The celebrity performance match is crucial. We need to choose a spokesperson.”
The match would be followed by anniversary offline events across various regions, and he had to fly to the Great Xia Empire.
His secretary, even more surprised, “Understood, President Ji, I’ll send out the notices right away.”
Soon, the news of Oracle seeking a spokesperson reached various stars, including Brother Zhou.
“Great news!” He rushed into Meng Xue’s dressing room. “Oracle is selecting a spokesperson!”
Meng Xue stood up abruptly, incredulously asking, “Spokesperson?”
Oracle had been a sensation for nine years, its influence unmatched even by top luxury brands.
A national obsession, its player base was enormous.
Until now, Oracle had never collaborated with celebrities beyond anniversary themes.
Choosing a spokesperson now was unprecedented.
“It will be decided during this celebrity performance match!” Brother Zhou exclaimed excitedly. “Give it your all. If not globally, at least secure the Great Xia region!”
Meng Xue’s heart raced uncontrollably, the excitement rendering her speechless.
She Imew the capabilities of the other celebrities registered in the Great Xia region.
None were a match for her.
Chi Yu wouldn’t compete with her for this.
She was determined to become the Oracle spokesperson for the Great Xia region. Si Fuqing might have RM, but could it compare to Oracle?
This time, Meng Xue was set on showing Si Fuqing who the real winner was..
