Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart
Chapter 640: Jiang Wanze Becomes Enthralled
CHAPTER 640: CHAPTER 640: JIANG WANZE BECOMES ENTHRALLED
Ever since Gu Tianlin kidnapped Xia Qingshao and was established as the Crown Prince, leading the imperial edict to suppress bandits, the Qiankun and Hengshan factions proclaimed Shen Jinyou as their leader. Under his wise and valiant command, they swiftly organized into a vast army that grew stronger by the day, setting a trap to lure Gu Tianlin.
Gu Tianlin, careless for a moment, was captured alive by Shen Jinyou.
Shen Jinyou forced the whereabouts of Xia Qingshao out of him, thinking he would rescue his senior sister and spend a lifetime with her.
But unexpectedly, Xia Qingshao’s love for Gu Tianlin was so deep that even though he deceived her and forced her to become his concubine, she did not blame him. Instead, she tricked him, allowing Gu Tianlin to escape.
The two of them once again soared together under his very nose.
Enraged, Shen Jinyou, in a fit of anger, ordered his troops to attack seven cities in the Desert North consecutively, finally leading the grand army to the gates of Tumi City.
Tumi City, with its roads leading in all directions and strategic location, has always been a contested battleground for military strategists, also known as the ’Guardian City’ of the Desert North Dynasty. If it were to fall, the army could march straight into the Forbidden City, and forcing the Emperor to abdicate would be imminent.
As the Hengshan Army approached Tumi City, the Emperor of Desert North was thrown into complete panic. With an imperial command, he ordered Crown Prince Gu Tianlin to lead the troops into battle personally.
The scene to be filmed today was the grand battle in front of Tumi City, where Gu Tianlin and Shen Jinyou clash.
As the crew members were busy with preparations, Zeng Minghui suddenly remembered an important detail, "Ye Xian, do you know how to ride a horse?"
Ye Xian: "?" What a coincidence?
"You don’t?"
"Director, wasn’t I supposed to shoot in front of a green screen?"
"That was the plan, but..." Zeng Minghui pointed at the playback data and audience feedback on the computer, "I found that everyone really enjoys your fight scenes, so I thought we’d shoot something more realistic. Even the best special effects can’t beat the real thing."
Ye Xian laughed, "If you had asked me earlier, I really wouldn’t have known, but I just learned how to recently."
"Recently?"
"Yes, with guidance from an expert."
"Another expert?" Zeng Minghui looked at her with interest, "The same one as last time?"
Ye Xian: "...Indeed."
She hadn’t realized it, but the CEO had helped her out quite a bit.
Zeng Minghui: "I see, it’s President Bo, right?"
Ye Xian: "!"
Zeng Minghui saw her surprised expression, his eyes conveyed a message that was understood without being expressed in words.
Previously, he had thought the expert Ye Xian mentioned was a woman, but recalling that President Bo personally made a call to him before shooting began to arrange for doubles in intimate scenes involving Ye Xian, and considering his subsequent set visits and calls for a leave of absence, all signs pointed to him beyond any doubt.
Ye Xian: "How did you know?"
Zeng Minghui smiled and shook his head silently, "Just a guess." It’s so obvious who cares, who wouldn’t notice?
The set was ready, and Ye Xian walked out of the makeup room, eliciting gasps from the crew on site. Wow, another divine sighting! Truly being amazed by Ye Xian every single day!
Her armor glittered like colored glaze. The pristine white hairpin inserted in her high-bound black hair, the delicate and intricate ribbon tied around her waist, the long sword in her hand, and the winding cape made her resemble a Heavenly General descending from the skies.
Zhou Lu immediately covered her nose to stop a nosebleed, afraid to splatter the extras.
At the frontline, Gu Tianlin, who was silently reciting his lines, was also startled upon seeing her, his mouth agape and his mind blank.
"Captain, have you memorized your lines?"
Ye Xian stepped forward to greet him.
Jiang Wanze didn’t react, still staring straight at her.
