Showbiz Scandal: The Official Announcement of My Ex and Myself-Chapter 396: Accident

This behind-the-scenes footage was perfectly timed, right when everyone wished the two could be together immediately.

What you can’t see in the official drama, you find a bit of solace in the behind-the-scenes footage. Thus, netizens began creating a big buzz, editing the behind-the-scenes with the main drama, attracting more CP fans, with countless people hoping the two actors could be together in real life too.

Seeing the promising outlook, He Ci said to Yu Xia, "We can arrange for the public announcement later. You don’t need to avoid him when taking on future work. Isn’t he eager to join a romance variety show? I can check out resources in that area too."

Yu Xia, in high spirits, nodded.

He Ci added, "His team disbandment variety show is next month, and many solo fans and group fans will be watching. You better warn him not to get carried away; if anything gets leaked then, the backlash will be severe."

"Got it."

There’s a month before their group variety show, and he had already filed his schedule.

"Then I’ll go make the arrangements. At the time of the finale, when he exits the show, there will definitely be a hot search frenzy," He Ci said, patting his suit, dragging away Mei, who was addicted to watching the drama.

When he mentioned the finale, Yu Xia was reminded of the scene when Xie Qingci exited from filming.

A show spans a long time from filming, editing, to obtaining a license for broadcast; some are shelved for years before airing. Their show was pretty good; Changhui had shortened the wait time just to boost Xie Qingci’s career.

They were optimistic about the boost this drama would give Xie Qingci, especially due to the character’s persona and ending.

The evil wife and the silent shadow guard tortured into love were destined for a tragic ending, which leaves just enough regret to be memorable.

Looking at it now, the benefits Xie Qingci got from his role in the finale are sure to surpass those of the male lead.

Therefore, their official announcement is best done within some time after the drama finishes airing.

Early July, "Burning Spring" finale.

The female lead’s evil personality disappeared, Lu Jiu, unwilling to remain just a Shadow Guard, built a symbolic tomb to bury the unique Song Zhuozhi and died in a snow-covered mountaintop out of love.

A distorted and tormenting affection born from dual personalities ended in regret.

As they expected, the topics of Xie Qingci and Yu Xia once again rocketed to the hot search.

[Ahhhh why must it be a bad ending! Why!?]

[My dear Qingci brother, sob sob sob, it made me cry like a pig]

[Why can’t they be together! Give me a rebirth drama! I want them together!]

[The instinctual touch of the hairpin by Yu Xia! Really made me cry a river]

[Xie Qingci! Hurry and get Yu Xia! I want to see your sweet, sweet romance!]

[It’s normal to get too into the role. If it were me, I too couldn’t bear seeing someone I can’t have hovering before me]

[The behind-the-scenes are even more tear-jerking, folks! As soon as the director yelled ’cut’, he immediately went to see Yu Xia!]

[I can’t take it anymore, hurry up and make another sweet romantic drama for me to watch!]

[If you had given me a happy ending, I might have found faults, but with such a heartbreaking conclusion, I just feel they are the ones who should be together the most in the world!]

[So is Xie Qingci too deep in character or does he really like Yu Xia? Please, this is very important to me, I’m tossing and turning thinking about it]

[Xie Qingci! Pay attention, go after her!]

At home, Yu Xia was also crying uncontrollably, and when she picked up Xie Qingci’s call, her voice was muffled and choked.

"Hello? Why are you calling at this hour, aren’t you shooting?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Xie Qingci: "Taking a break in between. Sis, our first drama’s finale is out."

She murmured a "yeah": "I know, I’m watching."

"I wrote a little piece on Lu Jiu, want to see?" He sent a picture over.

Yu Xia looked at it closely: "Your understanding of the character is very thorough. But why wish for the next life? The character Lu Jiu doesn’t believe in gods and Buddha."

He cheekily replied: "You can imagine I’m Lu Jiu in the next life. A continued fate isn’t impossible if that’s what everyone wants."

She opened her mouth, wiped her tears with a tissue, and then smiled: "That’s perfect, because He mentioned yesterday that I should pick a good day for a public announcement so he can prepare."

In the past, when this was brought up, Xie Qingci would be eager and impatient to make it official right away.

But this time, he didn’t respond immediately; instead, he was silent for a moment.

This reaction was suspicious, Yu Xia narrowed her eyes and asked in a hushed voice, "Why? Do you have other thoughts?"

Two months apart, have you been having too much fun outside and don’t want to go public anymore?

Do you find underground romance thrilling and don’t want to delay your career?

Or are you planning to pull some stunt?

For a split second, she even had the words to boot him already prepared.

Xie Qingci didn’t need to see her expression to sense the chill at his nape, and he quickly said, "I was thinking, maybe we should wait until you get back from filming that period drama?"

He’s still concerned their going public might affect her shooting. This period drama is crucial for her, in terms of winning an award, and he doesn’t want the relationship to interfere.

Yu Xia relaxed her stiff lips: "Is that the only reason? It’s up to you; if you don’t want to wait, we can do it next month. If you think you can hold off, I have no objections."

Xie Qingci was silent for a while and finally decided: "Let’s wait until you’re done with filming."

"Alright, coordinate with your agent once the plan’s set."

Having agreed, Yu Xia smiled, stretched lazily towards the sunlight from the window, ready to pack and prepare for her role on set.

But, unexpected things can happen amidst plans.

End of July, Xie Qingci was recording for the disbandment variety show, and in August, Yu Xia entered into filming.

On the third day of shooting, she had a scene to film a confrontation with two other female leads and a child actor.

The crew had set up a real scene, and she hastily tied a casual low ponytail, holding the child while rehearsing with others. The group stood under the eaves of an old mud-brick house street, with two cameramen cautiously stationed on the roof.

Their shoot was going smoothly; the child in her arms pretended to cry according to the plot.

Startled by the quick dive into the scene, just as she was about to deliver her lines with a smile, the sound of mooing erupted outside, and then the adjacent wall suddenly collapsed with a "boom," smashing into the dirt ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The crew nearby screamed in horror: "Watch out!"

The set descended into chaos as Director Yan Yifei leapt up, shouted loudly, "Rescue! Call a doctor!"

When Xie Qingci saw the news, he was just at the company. Mr. Yang was still talking to him when his face suddenly turned pale. Just when he was about to ask what was wrong, he saw Xie Qingci abruptly jump up and rush out.

The chair clattered to the ground with a "bang," leaving the people in the office stunned and glancing at each other.

Mr. Yang ran to the door but saw no sign of him and could only shout, "Xie Qingci! Where are you going?!"
