Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the second episode, the female lead played by Lu Zhen appeared.
...The female protagonist’s family was sacrificed in the political struggle. She became an orphan at a young age. In order to avoid being tracked down by her enemies, she hid her identity and disguised herself as a man to enter the military camp.
The female lead was only 14 years old when she appeared. She was fleeing with her servants. The female lead’s family had all died in political battles. Only she had escaped the bullet because she had gone overseas to treat her illness. However, she was still in a very dangerous situation because her enemies already knew that she was still alive. They would soon arrange for people to hunt her down.
In the noisy market, the soldiers who were searching for the female lead quickly passed through the crowd on horses. The commoners by the roadside looked at these ferocious soldiers in horror.
The camera moved slowly and finally stopped on a dilapidated carriage. The scene changed and captured a pair of terrified eyes. Then, the camera pulled back and showed the female lead’s entire face to the audience.
As she was fleeing, the female lead looked very disheveled. She was wearing tattered and dirty clothes, and her face was stained with dust, like a little kitten that had rolled in the mud.
However, such a down-and-out outfit could not hide this girl’s beauty. Her eyes, which were even brighter than the North Star, instantly captured the hearts of the audience. Her exquisite and beautiful face could withstand any angle of the camera.
When Lu Zhen appeared, the comments were filled with emotions—
“As expected of the top-notch beauty in the entertainment industry. If I looked like this, I would wake up laughing in my dreams.”
“The only problem with this face is that it doesn’t grow on my face.”
“I’m not a fan of Lu Zhen, but I have to admit that she’s really beautiful. Like an exquisite doll.”
Seeing the comments ot the netizens, Deng Yue’s best friend also sighed.
“She’s indeed quite good-looking. She’s barely worthy of our Song Xiao.”
“It’s just so-so. I think it’s quite ordinary.” Deng Yue smiled disdainfully. “As an actress, she only depends on her looks to make a living. That’s all she can do.”
Deng Yue’s best friend immediately echoed, “Indeed, she’s far inferior to you. Not to mention anything else, just in terms of temperament, she can’t compare to you!”
Objectively speaking, Deng Yue was indeed good-looking. She was also a famous great beauty in the upper-class circle of the capital and had never lacked suitors.
“Don’t compare me to these celebrities in the entertainment industry,” Deng
Yue said unhappily. “She doesn’t have the right to compare herself to me.”
After the two episodes of the television drama were over, they started to play the ending song and the list of main leads. Deng Yue casually glanced over and suddenly saw that Lu Zhen was from Jia Le.
Jia Le? Wasn’t this Song Jia’s company? Deng Yue immediately frowned. After some thought, Deng Yue took out her phone and searched for Lu Zhen’s information.
Once she searched, Deng Yue realized that almost all the headlines in the entertainment industry were occupied by Lu Zhen. Her popularity could be said to be far ahead of other female celebrities.
Deng Yue also noticed that on the latest trending topic, Lu Zhen’s relationship was hotly discussed by netizens.
“Isn’t Lu Zhen’s private life too messy? A man actually appeared in her bedroom during the live-stream…” Deng Yue said mockingly. However, her expression quickly stiffened.
Deng Yue’s eyes widened. She looked at the man who appeared in the video and her heart seemed to have stopped beating for a moment. She hurriedly zoomed in on the video. After seeing the style of the shirt that the man was wearing, Deng Yue’s mind went blank.
She knew this shirt. It was the work of a niche design studio. She had even paid special attention to that studio because Song Jia often wore the clothes designed by that studio.
This was the shirt Song Jia was wearing when he came to her house for dinner a few nights ago.
The man in the video was Song Jia?
This guess almost suffocated Deng Yue.
Although the man’s face could not be seen clearly in the video, Deng Yue knew that her feelings would not be wrong. This was the man she had liked for so many years. How could she be wrong?
Her fingers trembled as she continued to read the news. Only then did she see Lu Zhen announce her relationship a few days ago. She said that the man who appeared in the live-stream was her boyfriend.
Song Jia was Lu Zhen’s boyfriend? How was that possible?!
“Yueyue, what’s wrong? Why is your face so pale? Don’t scare me!” Her best friend saw that there was something wrong with Deng Yue’s expression and asked worriedly..
