Chapter 280: Chapter 280: She Got Suppressed By Yan Jinyi

“Consort Zhou, you’ve already been in the palace for three months, right? I heard that you’ve only seen the emperor once. I pity you so I’d like to give you a chance to serve him, as long as you can persuade Consort Ting to forgive my brother.”

Hearing he words, Zhou Pingyun said with a gentle smile, “Thank you for your kindness, but Consort Ting is the emperor’s concubine. Yet, she nearly had her reputation marred by your brother. This is not a trivial matter. After all…”

She stopped at this point, clearly not convinced by the empress.

Outside the set, several staff members have already started whispering to each other.

“Liu Ran is in a good state today!”

“Look guys, the aura on Liu Ran is getting more and more domineering. Why does she seem to be dominating the scene?”

“I heard that Liu Ran’s teacher has groomed and produced several movie stars and Best Actor titleholders, so it’s not surprising that Liu Ran will dominate the scene. Yan Jinyi is going to have a miserable time this time.”

Liu Ran’s acting skills were superb and even Chen Keyi couldn’t help but be amazed. At the same time, he looked at Yan Jinyi worriedly.

Yan Jinyi was still seated on the couch like an empress.

If Yan Jinyi didn’t handle it well, she might even face suppressed by Liu Ran and that would affect her badly.

Playing the villain itself was already a challenge. For some actors and actresses, they would still seem like the good guys in the minds of the audience even if they played the villain.

It was all due to personal charm.

Under Liu Ran’s deliberate suppression, it would be a huge improvement if Yan Jinyi could still exude her personal charm.

Seeing how arrogant and condescending Yan Jinyi was, Liu Ran sneered and thought to herself, ‘Yan Jinyi, don’t you want to compete in acting skills? Today, I’ll let you know what real acting skills are!’

Liu Ran stepped forward and asked, “Your Majesty, are you really willing to lose your reputation in front of His Majesty, for your brother’s sake?”

Her voice was calm and her attitude was respectful but she somehow gave off a sense of oppression.

The few veteran actors and actresses in the audience secretly formed opinions in their heads.

If they were Yan Jinyi, they might have forgotten their lines by this time.

As it turns out, Yan Jinyi might have really forgotten her lines.

Well because, she did not speak even after almost a minute.

Chen Keyi was ready to pause the filming but Yan Jinyi suddenly sat up on the couch.

She looked down a little and fiddled with her nails, her expression nonchalant.

“Consort Zhou, are you threatening me?”

She was so nonchalant and composed, as if she was just asking a normal question. However, she was also withdrawn and cold as ice, making them feel chills down their spines.

After saying that, she suddenly smirked and touched her hairpin. Her features were exquisite and she was absolutely beautiful.

Liu Ran was stunned.

“Consort Zhou?”

Yan Jinyi called again.

Liu Ran still did not answer.

“Cut! Liu Ran what’s wrong with you, why didn’t you say your lines?” Chen Keyi rebuked sternly.

Only then did Liu Ran come back to her senses, only to feel that her hands and feet had turned clammy while her heart was full of fear.

She was clearly ready to dominate Yan Jinyi!

Yet… Yan Jinyi…

‘Yan Jinyi knows to be assertive too? Yan Jinyi actually dominated me?’

Recalling the scene where she faced Yan Jinyi and shuddered uncontrollably, Liu Ran clenched her fists.

‘Impossible, Yan Jinyi graduated from a third-rate university and her acting skills are mediocre. How can she dominate me?’

Yan Jinyi walked away and took the warm water handed to her by the staff with a smile on her face. “Ah, I suddenly got into the mood today. I think I can film ten more scenes!”

Her words were undoubtedly like a slap on Liu Ran’s face.
