Lin Miu Ci was still pondering how to control a madman like Ling Qian He.
Then, that evening, the second wave of trailers for the movie "Peerless Beauty and Elegance" was released.
"Peerless Beauty and Elegance," being Zhao Lan's work, was truly filmed with delicate beauty.
On the bluestone street after the rain, as he carried her into the car, he glanced back with a proud, spirited smile.
Twenty-year-old Ling Qian He possessed the handsomeness of a mature man, yet with a touch of youthful vigor.
That face, no matter how many times it appeared on the big screen, was stunning enough to make one gasp.
He was so handsome it seemed to dim the sun and moon.
Lin Miu Ci, playing Qi Qing Ling, had her first role.
But it was hard to believe this was the young girl's first time acting.
She stood there, her brows and eyes full of tenderness, exuding a pure innocence of a student, so beautiful that she perfectly complemented Ling Qian He, making them an exceptionally well-matched pair.
If Ling Qian He was a sharp demon blade that drew blood with every strike, then Lin Miu Ci was the gentlest scabbard.
She could withstand his sharpness.
Endure his murderous intent.
She could accept all his emotions.
Turning hard steel into soft spring water.
Making him heartbroken for her, losing all his pride for her, kneeling humbly on the ground, begging her to return.
[Oh my gosh. They match so well.]
The sight of her shedding tears in front of him.
Let alone General Shen Jin An.
Even the audience felt a pang of sympathy.
[What a scumbag.]
[How could he treat her like that? I just can't understand it.]
[But seeing how heartbroken he is after losing her, I actually feel sympathetic.]
[Qian He is such a good actor!]
Everyone sighed as they watched.
The second trailer only featured a few scenes of Lin Miu Ci and Ling Qian He, which immediately sparked widespread dissatisfaction, and opinions became remarkably unified!
[We want more plot!]
[Ahhhh, are you trying to kill me? The chemistry between these two is too amazing. Even if I were buried in a grave, I'd use my broken throat to shout that Lin Miu Ci and Ling Qian He are truly a perfect match!]
[Upstairs, I second that.]
The crowd roared with excitement. That night, #QianMiuCP# trended on hot search. Opening the super topic, the comment section was filled with people who had found their tribe.
[Hahaha, I knew it! How could such a perfect pair not be shipped!]
[Don't say anymore, I've carried the civil affairs bureau here overnight. As soon as little Ci reaches the legal age, I'll force them to get married!]
[Wuwuwu, they are so compatible, who else is as smitten as I am?]
Although this was a niche pairing.
It couldn't withstand the incredible atmosphere of the movie.
The number of people shipping this CP surged.
Within the super topic, everyone felt like they had found family, a joyous atmosphere prevailed.
[Does anyone know what little Ci's next project is?]
[I know Qian He is about to hold a concert. That street dance program was postponed, not sure if he'll participate next year. If he does, it'll likely be in the summer.]
Someone immediately raised their hand to speak.
[Little Ci seems to need to study. So don't rush, let's have something in the summer. The debut song for their group was written by brother Qian He, so there will definitely be opportunities to collaborate in the future.]
Mentioning this made everyone even more excited.
[Ahhhh, I still have saved the dance they performed together in "Tomorrow's Idol." You have no idea, that dance was absolutely stunning,嘤嘤嘤 I love it so much!]
That dance truly exuded a powerful atmosphere.
Despite being a top star and a newcomer, they collaborated with incredible synchronicity.
Every move was exceptionally harmonious.
Ling Qian He's stage presence was a blend of power and aesthetic beauty.
His movements were crisp and clean; even professional dancers sometimes couldn't match him or keep up with his steps, forcing them to adapt their routines.
Lin Miu Ci, however, performed exceptionally well!
Her every move landed perfectly on the beat, keeping pace with Ling Qian He as if they were one. The two of them looked like a stunning duet.
[Wuwuwu, I never dreamed little Ci would emerge out of nowhere. I originally thought I'd never find another girl who could be such a perfect match for Qian He.]
[She's so inspirational herself.]
[Qian He's little fan, who was bullied at school for liking Qian He, was pushed down the stairs.]
[After narrowly escaping death, she studied hard, signed up for the talent show, and debuted first.]
[She acts well, and every collaboration with Qian He is perfect. I really don't understand what the haters have to criticize her for.]
[Exactly. If Ling Qian He were to date someone, dating little Ci would be wonderful. Wuwuwu, just thinking about it makes me so happy I'm practically bubbling over.]
But there were also the pragmatic ones.
[Didn't Lin Miu Ci say that she absolutely wouldn't have any entanglement with Ling Qian He?]
But immediately, someone refuted.
[A woman's mouth is full of lies. Anyway, I absolutely don't believe little Ci has no feelings for Ling Qian He. After all, he's someone she once liked so, so much, how could she be indifferent?]
[That's right!]
[Wuwuwu, little Ci is truly an amazing girl. She has silently endured so much.]
The ranks of CP fans grew rapidly.
They secretly savored sweet moments found in variety shows and various corners.
...
The next day, Lin Miu Ci went to a tea house, intending to give the dress to Zhao Lan and have her pass it on to her friend, producer He Yun Ru.
Zhao Lan accepted the dress, a hidden smile in her eyes. Lin Miu Ci heard Zhao Lan speak.
"Xiao Ci, what do you think—"
Zhao Lan's smile gradually spread, and then she asked her.
"Xiao Ci, what do you think of that special episode?"
Lin Miu Ci coughed.
"Won't it make Senior Qian He feel awkward? After all, the plot requires him to have a sudden realization and a chase to win back his love. I don't think Senior Qian He would be willing to play such a role."
Zhao Lan was taken aback. "Who said that? I thought Qian He was quite willing."
"Don't you know? This plot was actually suggested by Qian He himself during our chat. He said it could be filmed as a special episode for promotional purposes..."
Lin Miu Ci gritted her teeth.
She knew it!
This matter was inseparable from Ling Qian He!
And here he was, acting so noble, pulling Zhao Lan into it with a grand pretense.
This little rascal, how could he be so... so utterly exasperating!
Zhao Lan spoke softly to Lin Miu Ci.
"I've also seen it. You and Ling Qian He have indeed received a great response online as a pair."
Zhao Lan reached out and stroked her hair.
"Are you really not together with him?"
Lin Miu Ci flatly denied it.
"Of course not."
Zhao Lan nodded. "It's common for young girls to be shy. By the way, about the premiere ceremony I mentioned before, the movie is releasing on May Day, and the promotion has already begun. I want to take you on a few roadshow events."
"Qian He will also be there."
Lin Miu Ci mumbled.
"I might have to go abroad. I might not be able to make it."
This matter was very important to her, related to the secret of that cruise ship and the whereabouts of Zhou Yuan An's father.
Although she felt in her heart that Zhou Yuan An's father was likely beyond saving, she still wanted to give him an answer.
She explained to Sister Lan, "I'm not going for fun, it's overseas study."
"A friend recommended me to a laboratory of an overseas big shot."
Zhao Lan was surprised.
"Alright. However, Sister He is also going overseas. You can go with her and discuss the script on the way. Her new movie is very promising, Xiao Ci, you can consider taking it on next!"
