Huayu 2015, the Artist of Light and Shadow

Chapter 156: White Moonlight + Lifesaver, the audience is going crazy! Jingjing quietly transferred 10,000 yuan – this is a heavenly tribulation!

With the airing of episode 9, the plot of "Queen of Tears" has reached a climax.

The female protagonist misunderstands that the male protagonist can't let go of his childhood sweetheart. However, after doing some research, she discovers that the person the male protagonist can't forget is not his childhood sweetheart "Li Lin", but his white moonlight from junior high school.

She was both jealous and curious about who had stolen her boyfriend.

As a result, after investigating for a long time, the female protagonist suddenly realized that the mysterious "white moonlight" was actually herself.

Although she didn't say it, she was probably overjoyed.

As female viewers, the sense of identification with this scene was overwhelming—they all imagined that when they were in middle school, there was a boy like Lu Yunzhou who secretly had a crush on them.

Even though she later immigrated abroad, more than a decade later, he appeared in front of her as if it were destiny, and fell in love with her without hesitation.

After spending a few days together and gradually developing feelings for each other, he was even willing to take a bullet for her.

"Oh my God!"

"The more I think about it, the more unbearable it becomes: God, please arrange something for me! Let Lu Yunzhou come and date me!"

"I don't want to be 'Dream Bowl Porridge' anymore, only able to drink a sip in my dreams! I want to actually drink a bowl of porridge!"

mid-December.

Zhejiang TV's "Ace vs Ace" invited Wang Churan, Zhang Ruoyun, Li Lin, Zhu Xudan, Guo Qilin and many other main members of the "Queen of Tears" cast to record the program.

Lu Yunzhou did not come.

He doesn't need any publicity—his works are his biggest form of publicity.

Appearing on variety shows and providing laughs for the audience will only tear away his veil of mystery and nobility.

For top actors, it's best to avoid contributing as many laughs as possible on variety shows, lest they become memes and objects of jokes, thus devaluing their faces.

Before participating in the variety show, Wang Ran was invited to attend an offline opening event at in77 in Hangzhou.

-

Today, Kiko Beauty opened its doors at in77!

As the brand's pre-selected spokesperson, Wang Ran will definitely have to attend.

After all, this is her own business, and it belongs to her best friend Tian Xiwei—back then, Tian Xiwei went to great lengths to help her promote LDC products.

Although Wang Churan and Tian Xiwei bickered and fought at home, Wang Churan considered himself a very loyal person and would definitely stand up for her!

Currently, during the airing of "Queen of Tears," she is at her most popular!

It's her turn to handle the live-streaming sales!

"Boat Girl, I love you!"

"Wang Cheran, you look absolutely stunning!"

"Neither the south nor the north of the city can compare to the beauty of King Chu!"

"Queen of Tears" is currently airing, and Wang Churan is experiencing for the first time what super popularity and top-tier stardom truly mean.

The pomp and circumstance.

Upon arriving at in77, Wang Ran had just gotten off the bus when she was greeted by a sea of ​​people outside, and a wave of heat hit her in the face.

The road was completely blocked by fans who had gathered to watch.

Located on the shores of West Lake in Hangzhou, in77 is one of the most popular shopping districts in the city. During many major holidays, the roads surrounding in77 are likely to be closed.

Because there are just too many people out shopping.

The Longxiangqiao subway station was completely jammed, and queuing for 20 minutes to enter the subway was commonplace.

Today, even though it's not a holiday, the roads were still closed.

Because Wang Ran, the newly crowned top superstar, has arrived.

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Churan."

Guided by staff and surrounded by numerous bodyguards, Wang Churan pushed through the crowd, wearing a light green Song-style dress, and walked to the front of the Kiko store amidst screams from the crowd.

She simply greeted everyone, which elicited screams from the entire audience.

That's an exaggeration.

However, it feels so good, it's really addictive.

Is this what it feels like to be a top influencer?

No wonder all the celebrities in the entertainment industry are vying to become top stars.

Wang Churan stood on the stage, and as far as her eyes could see, countless people were waving at her like zombies, as if they wanted to pounce on her at any moment, to eat her flesh and drink her blood.

It's as if she's Tang Sanzang; eating her flesh will instantly make you beautiful and allow you to fall in love with Lu Yunzhou.

You're dreaming!

"Sister Boat, this way please."

The sales assistant invited Wang Ran into the store to look at their beauty product line. Then, a photographer who was on standby would take some photos.

These are all standard procedures.

Although Wang Churan had not participated, she had received training.

At this moment, she picked up a lipstick, held it up to her lips, and smiled at the photographer.

After taking a few promotional photos, Wang Ran put the lipstick back and opened a bottle of face cream next to it. After opening it, she gently smelled it.

She applied a little face cream to the back of her hand, nodded slightly, and smiled.

"She's really different from other female celebrities."

"Other female celebrities are just putting on a show, but she's genuinely checking these goods to see if they're any good."

"Haha, that's interesting!"

Some people nearby were whispering among themselves.

These words reached Wang Ran's ears.

She couldn't help but let out a soft snort in her heart.

Of course!

This is our family business, so of course I have to take it seriously.

"fine."

"Give this bottle to me."

Wang Cherishedly tossed the bottle of face cream she had tried to her assistant next to her.

Then, she tried the toner—since she had makeup on, she couldn't spray it directly on her face, so she sprayed it all on the back of her hand to see how it felt.

"It has a light jasmine scent, which smells quite nice. This one is good too."

Wang Ran acted like a real buyer, trying out products everywhere and giving his opinions in front of everyone.

This has sparked a strong desire among many people to buy.

Having done all this, Wang Ran felt that she had done right by her best friend, Tian Xiwei.

At that moment, Wang looked around in fear.

Across from this shop is LDC Jewelry, whose GG brand features Liu Haocun and Tian Xiwei, one as aloof as snow, the other youthful and lively.

Borsalino is next door.

This store is amazing—it doesn't have any celebrity endorsements, but it has a life-size wax figure of Lu Yunzhou placed in the very center of the store.

The wax figure had its head bowed at a 45-degree angle, wore a khaki Borsalino hat, gently pressed its hands down, and revealed a faint smile at the corner of its mouth.

This scene is a perfect replica of the pose Lu Yunzhou made when he was named one of the 100 most handsome faces in the world in 2017!

On the second floor, in a corner, lies the high-end fashion boutique, Kou Rui. Despite its secluded location, customers still flock to its door.

On the giant GG sign, on the left is Gulnazar looking like a cool and aloof queen walking the runway in Milan. On the right is Zhang Tianai gracefully lifting one leg, leaning against the wall, and pulling up her shoe.

Both of them are stunning beauties.

Wang Churan has been in the entertainment industry for so long, and among the people she has met besides Fan Bingbing, Gulnazar is the most beautiful and Zhang Tianai is the most aloof!

And now—her Wang Ran's GG badge has appeared in the most conspicuous position in the Kiko store, standing out from everyone else.

The most beautiful GG signs in this mall all feature their product spokespeople!

"Sister Chuan, it's almost time for the event. We should head to Zhejiang TV."

The assistant offered a reminder.

Wang Ran reluctantly ended her tour work—other celebrities were there to make appearances and couldn't wait to leave as soon as possible.

She came to inspect her own business, just like an ancient emperor inspecting his country, but the feeling was completely different.

-

"Let's go then, we'll come again next time."

After leaving Kiko, Wang Ran didn't leave immediately. Instead, he went to LDc Jewelry and took a look around.

"Miss, welcome and give us your guidance!"

All employees of LDC Jewelry know that Wang Churan is Song Yameng, and Song Yameng is the legal representative of LDC China, that is, the boss's wife.

"How's business lately?"

Wang entered the store with a start, feeling right at home. He wandered around for a bit, then his eyes caught sight of a gold ring priced around 5000 yuan.

She gently tapped the ring on the counter and said, "This ring. Let me try it on."

"Yes, Miss."

The sales assistant hurriedly took out the ring and respectfully put it on Wang Ran's little finger.

"How is it? Pretty, isn't it?"

In front of everyone, Wang Churan gently fiddled with her ring finger.

The gold pinky ring was stretched into the shape of a thorn flower.

The openwork design, the mottled thorn flowers, and the golden shimmer create a unique and captivating beauty.

"Miss is beautiful; she looks good in anything."

The sales assistants are also trained. Whether a ring sells well or not mainly depends on the customer's mood. If the customer is in a good mood, they will naturally place an order.

If a guest is in a bad mood, even giving her the Heart of the Ocean won't help.

"I bought it. Swipe my card."

Upon hearing the praise, Wang Ran smiled, took a credit card from his assistant's purse, swiped it, and left.

Under Lu Yunzhou's influence, Wang Ran's daily thoughts revolve around how to sell products through live streaming.

She came to the offline event today, which is expected to boost some of Kiko Beauty's sales, but a lipstick only costs a few dozen yuan.

Even if she sells products like crazy, she won't earn much.

They still come to their own LDC Jewelry store to buy gold; the average order value is much higher. One transaction is equivalent to Kiko making 100.

笔！

Thank you for your patronage. Welcome to visit us again.

After the sales assistant saw Wang Ran out, a large group of people came over to ask her which ring she had just bought.

On that day, the sales performance of LDC Jewelry in77 flagship store increased several times over!

"Mom, our ring sizes are similar, so I'll give this ring to you."

Wang Ran's mother was also in the nanny van.

Wang Ran's mother was a little worried after her daughter suddenly became a big star, so she decided to stay with her daughter and help her get used to the life of a top celebrity in the entertainment industry.

After her mother followed them over, she realized that Wang Chiran was the company's boss's wife, and she could do whatever she wanted.

Her assistant and agent catered to her every whim.

Are you suggesting that Wang Ran should accompany investors for drinks?

Are you kidding me?

Basically, it was always others who respected her—now everyone knows that she's the Queen of Tears in the drama, but a goddess in real life.

Queen of Goose Tears!

The Swan Tears Jewelry brand is currently valued at 200 billion in the capital market!

As long as Lu Yunzhou is willing to go public, he can list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at any time.

It's a pity that such a sure-fire way to make money would go public.

They have no shortage of cash flow, nor do they need financing to expand their overseas channels—after all, they are already well-off, and in the entire entertainment industry, there are very few heiresses richer than Wang Ran. Several entertainment company CEOs aren't even as wealthy as Wang Ran.

"Did he really give you the company?"

When Wang Churan's mother received the ring, she couldn't help but ask a question.

Hearing this, Wang Ran slightly pursed his lips: "Mom, that's 200 billion! Do you think it's 200 yuan? You can't just give it away like that!"

"Haven't you watched the TV series I was in these past few days? In the show, the entire Hong family fought like crazy over those 200 billion yuan in assets!"

"Although this is an idol drama, the family struggles in it are very realistic—my brother made me watch over these 200 billion. I am like the ancient evil dragon in Western mythology who guards gold and jewels."

"My mission is to wait for the brave warrior to come and slay me, and steal my gold and jewels!"

"However, I do have a solution—once I give him a son, that 200 billion will most likely belong to my son."

.

Even without a son, Wang Churan still has a legitimate status.

However, she knew in her heart that she definitely wouldn't get a share of the property.

In the drama "Queen of Tears," why is Hong Ziyi so passive when facing property disputes? It's because she doesn't have a son.

If she had a son, she wouldn't care even if she died; she would leave all her property to her son, and no one could say a word against it!

It is precisely because Hong Ziyi does not have a son that others would have ulterior motives.

"Then you'd better hurry!"

Wang Churan's mother said something very meaningful.

She's been watching the show these past few days and has read a lot of comments and bullet screen messages.

She now had a fairly clear understanding of Lu Yunzhou's popularity and his appeal to the young girl.

"Mom, you don't understand."

Seeing her mother's anxious expression, Wang Ran smiled gently and said confidently, "Actually, I don't need to be in a hurry at all. Some people are even more anxious than me."

Wang Churan's mother suddenly interrupted, "How can we not be anxious? Daughter, you must listen to your mother about this matter. The biggest reason your father and I divorced back then was that I didn't give him a son."

Wang Churan scoffed, "My dad is my dad. Yunzhou is Yunzhou. Don't confuse them. They're not the same. Can my dad give you 200 kilograms of gold?"

That's definitely impossible!

Upon hearing this, the mother was speechless and even felt a pang of jealousy towards her daughter.

My daughter is so lucky!

"Forget it. I'm not going to say anything more. You're completely blinded by him right now. No matter what I say, you won't listen."

The mother felt that she had been through it all and knew about men's bad habit of being fickle and easily bored.

However, the way it was portrayed in the TV series was just too sweet.

Wang Churan acted in it once, and recently watched it again while binge-watching the series. Her daughter wasn't very smart to begin with, so how much intelligence does she have left now?

"By the way, daughter, I heard online that Yunzhou has several female confidantes outside? Like Gulnazar, Dilraba—you can gently remind him not to go too far. He should at least save face for you."

With Lu Yunzhou being so wealthy, Wang Ran's mother, as his mother-in-law, couldn't really say anything.

Because this kind of man has far too many choices.

If she spoke a little harsher, and Lu Yunzhou got upset, he could just dump her daughter and find someone gentler and cuter.

What can she do?

There's nothing we can do but sit and wait for others to lose both their money and their possessions!

Therefore, we can only wait and see what Wang Ran's methods will bring.

"Fake!"

Wang Churan said righteously, "Mom, no matter what rumors you hear outside, don't believe them. I know more about my brother's affairs than you do. They're all just jealous of me and are deliberately spreading gossip."

"Yes, they're all jealous of us!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Churan's mother nodded vigorously.

Two hundred kilograms of gold is enough to make many people green with envy.

Not to mention, Wang Churan has now become the legal representative of LDC China.

Although the exact number of shares is unknown, he holds a high position of power and controls the official seal of the corporation, making him equivalent to a prime minister in ancient times.

The nanny van drove to Zhejiang TV station.

"Mom, I'm going to record a show. You can have the driver take you around a bit. If you're too tired, you can go back to the hotel to rest."

Wang Ran is quite filial to his mother.

Although most of her mother's love was given to her younger brother, she was still her mother and hadn't neglected her.

Wang Ran was actually very grateful to her mother for sending her to a boarding school—otherwise, she would not have met Lu Yunzhou.

"Go ahead and get busy."

"I'm going back to the hotel to continue watching the show."

"I didn't even have time to watch episode 10 last night."

The mother was too embarrassed to say in front of her daughter that she also really liked Bai Zhiyuan, the character played by Lu Yunzhou.

She also liked the post about BTS's Lu Yunzhou.

Shaoyang.

"Jingjing, thank goodness you came back to help. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to manage on my own these past two days."

Despite the hot weather these past two days, business has been booming.

After dinner, customers flocked in, causing Zhang Jingyi's family clothing store to have a record-breaking daily turnover.

The mother felt that all of this was because Zhang Jingyi had returned.

With such a live model, customers will naturally come in and take a look.

As soon as she came in, she started talking, and Zhang Jingyi quietly watched as she served a cup of tea to the customer.

When those aunties and older sisters see how well-behaved and sensible their daughters are, their hearts melt, their IQ drops, and their wallets naturally start to empty.

"Jingjing, you've had a hard time these past two days. Mom is transferring 5000 yuan to you. Go out and have some fun with your classmates for a few days."

Business at the store has improved somewhat, and Zhang Jingyi's mother feels a pang of sympathy as she looks at her hard-working mother.

Other people's daughters only know how to play during summer vacation.

Her beloved daughter, however, comes to the store every day to help her with the business.

She felt useless when she thought about it.

"Thank you, Mom."

Zhang Jingyi accepted the 5000 yuan.

She put the money into her small wallet, looked up at her mother, and said earnestly, "Mom, when I become a big star and make money, I'll buy you a house in Shanghai and open a shop for you in Hang Lung Plaza. What do you say?"

"Okay. Of course, that's good."

Actually, my mother won't go.

After all, she has a husband and son in Shaoyang, and it's impossible for her to go live with her daughter.

But how could she refuse her daughter's filial piety?

Suddenly remembering something, her mother said, "Oh right, Jingjing, I remember around the time of the Lunar New Year, you recorded a variety show called 'Idol Producer.' Wasn't Lu Yunzhou a mentor on that show?"

Very good!

They've finally been discovered!

At this moment, Zhang Jingyi felt a mix of anticipation and slight trepidation. She nodded gently, "Yes, that's true. Mom, what's wrong?"

As her mother straightened her clothes, she asked, "Did you go and take a picture with Lu Yunzhou?"

What's the big deal about taking a group photo?

If I told you I was his girlfriend—wouldn't you be terrified?

At that moment, Zhang Jingyi pretended to suddenly realize something and hurriedly said, "Mom, wait a moment, let me look. I think I can find it."

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, the mother immediately became expectant.

Zhang Jingyi scrolled through her phone's photo album for a long time—in fact, she kept these photos in a private album and would secretly look at them every day.

After a long time, Zhang Jingyi found a photo of herself and Lu Yunzhou.

This is inside a nanny van.

Lu Yunzhou invited her to watch Guillermo del Toro's "Pan's Labyrinth" together. She didn't pay attention to the movie at all, but she remembered that Lu Yunzhou smelled very nice that day.

It made her completely confused.

After watching the movie, the two of them took a photo together.

"It really is Lu Yunzhou."

The mother took Zhang Jingyi's phone, glanced at it, and her eyes lit up immediately.

Then, Mom noticed something with her sharp eyes: "That scarf around your neck—the sword and rose emblem—is it Cora?"

"This one must cost 3000, right?"

"I understand you. Jingjing, you can't bear to buy such an expensive silk scarf. Our family's circumstances don't allow you to be so extravagant."

""

"So, this was a gift from Lu Yunzhou?"

At this, Mom turned to look at Zhang Jingyi and burst into laughter: "As expected of our Jingyi, everyone likes you. Lu Yunzhou is no exception!"

"I was wondering why your expression was so strange every time Lu Yunzhou was mentioned. Now I understand."

Simple fans probably only make these kinds of noises online.

However, Zhang Jingyi had already become a fan who followed Lu Yunzhou to his side; she had photos with him and even received a fan-exclusive gift from Lu Yunzhou.

Zhang Jingyi's mother can understand her feelings.

Her daughter must adore Lu Yunzhou.

After all, which girl doesn't dream of love?

However, others don't have the opportunity to meet the real person in person offline.

"Forget it, let's not bother cleaning up! Let's continue watching episode 10!"

"I think Hong Ziyi has such a bad personality, she's stubborn, arrogant, and even sleeps in a separate room from her husband. She's obviously not a good daughter-in-law. If it were our Jingjing, her grandson would probably be three years old by now."

Before today, Mom was still shipping couples.

But just minutes before, after learning that Lu Yunzhou had given Zhang Jingyi a Kou Rui silk scarf, her mother began to nitpick at Wang Cheran from every angle.

Zhang Jingyi blushed with embarrassment and couldn't help but defend Wang Cheran, saying, "Mom, it's just a TV drama, don't take it so seriously."

The mother, however, disagreed: "It's all over the internet, this isn't just a TV series, it's a gender-swapped chronicle of the Lu family!"

Lu Yunzhou's mother had no idea about his family situation.

Zhang Jingyi was too lazy to argue anymore.

Let's keep watching the show.

I watched episode 9 yesterday, and the two episodes for today haven't been updated yet. After watching episode 10, I'll have to wait until 10 pm tonight.

At the same time.

Many viewers across the country took out their phones and opened the apps of iQiyi, Youku, and Tencent Video to watch episode 10.

Good TV series are so good that you don't want to fast-forward through each episode.

I was afraid that after watching it, I would have to wait for the next episode.

Many people prepare themselves and, in their most leisurely moments, watch their favorite TV series with an appreciative mindset.

Episode 10 picks up right where episode 9 left off.

The male protagonist, played by Lu Yunzhou, pushed open the door and entered. Upon seeing the female protagonist, played by Wang Ran, he took out the Walkman he had been secretly keeping in his drawer.

Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, he angrily snatched the Walkman from Wang Cheran.

He gave Wang Ran a deep look, then carefully used a tissue to wipe away the dirt on the Walkman—even though there was nothing dirty.

"You stingy person."

Wang Ran deliberately made a sarcastic remark, but the corners of her mouth were already turned up.

This is mine!

"It's an old relic that's over ten years old; it's very easy for it to break."

"Besides, this was left here by someone else. What if the owner comes back and I've damaged it again? How am I supposed to explain that?"

Lu Yunzhou stubbornly tried to find excuses for himself.

Now that the audience knows that the Walkman was left behind by Wang Ran more than ten years ago, at this moment, the audience does not feel that the male protagonist is stingy, but rather feels a strange sense of humor and sweetness.

"Tch~~ That sounds so high-sounding."

Wang Ran's lips curled up slightly, and he hummed a few times, teasingly asking, "This is such a treasure? It wasn't left by your first love, was it?"

""

"This, this—this is utter nonsense."

Lu Yunzhou's face flushed red instantly, and he looked embarrassed for a moment.

He changed the subject, saying, "My sister and brother-in-law are going to go beachcombing. They asked me to call you. Would you like to come along? Feeling the sea breeze might cheer you up."

"OK."

Wang Ran was in a very good mood.

After all, she was surprised to learn that her husband's true love was actually herself, and that this fool had been secretly keeping her things, treasuring them terribly, and not wanting her to find out.

So incredibly cute!

At this moment, many viewers across the country smiled with delight upon seeing this scene.

On the open plains.

Lu Yunzhou rode his electric bike, with Wang Ran sitting on the back. Both of them wore helmets and flew across the open field in the wind.

The sunlight dimmed, and the wind ruffled Wang Ran's long hair.

She couldn't help but close her eyes, savoring the tranquility and beauty of the moment.

At the same time, the scene flashes back to her high school days.

It was late autumn, and the leaves on the road were falling like snowflakes. A gust of wind swept through, and the streets were covered with withered yellow maple leaves.

"This is your last day at school. Say goodbye to your classmates properly."

Before leaving home, the mother said this to the young Hong Ziyi.

In the background, there is also a black and white photo of Hong Ziyi's brother, who recently passed away, which explains why the family immigrated.

"Shuyi, what's wrong?"

Carrying her schoolbag, Hong Ziyi met her best friend at school, a term that left viewers scratching their heads.

Shuyi?

Her name wasn't originally Hong Ziyi!

"What's going on?"

"Is Hong Ziyi the name she changed to later?"

"No wonder the male lead didn't recognize her. I was thinking yesterday that even if girls change a lot as they grow up, they should still be able to make a connection right away, right?"

"So, she changed her name! That makes sense now."

"Just imagine, you meet someone you haven't seen for over a decade, who has even changed their name, in a foreign country. No one would be able to connect the two."

The story continues.

The audience is already eager to know what kind of story these two have in the past.

-

"Shuyi, what performance are you going to do at the New Year's Eve party?"

"I heard that Bai Zhiyuan from the next class wrote a song and is going to sing it to a girl in our grade at the New Year's Eve party —"

My best friend is very gossipy and excited, and can't wait to see what happens.

But Hong Ziyi was in no mood for it. She gently shook her head and announced a bombshell: "I'm leaving."

"Leave? What do you mean?"

My best friend was a little confused.

Hong Ziyi looked around the campus, sighed, and said, "Going to Italy. Not coming back."

New Year's Eve party on campus.

Lu Yunzhou went up alone and bowed to the audience, but he didn't see the person he was looking for.

Feeling somewhat depressed, he sat down at the piano, dejected, and slowly began to play music that sounded like a clear spring.

Background music starts playing.

"If parting is for the sake of seeing each other again, then love is a parabola shaped by longing."

"We're drifting further and further away from the beginning, always just missing each other."

"What if this farewell is the last time we see each other?"

The camera then switched directly to the airport.

Wearing a thick coat, Hong Ziyi turned her head to look at the plane before boarding. She seemed to hear something, and her eyes flickered with a hint of red.

And the background music reached its climax.

"Let the wind speak for me, to say goodbye in this season when fallen leaves are like snow—"

The scene shifts back to the school's New Year's Eve party.

"The heavy rain I just missed, the sweltering summer I can't hold onto, are those drifting clouds you? Round and round."

-

"How I wish I were the wind passing by you, unable to resist falling back into your eyes—"

The camera cuts again.

A day and a night later, the plane arrived in Italy.

Hong Ziyi woke up and suddenly realized that she had forgotten to bring her Walkman—just the night before, Lu Yunzhou had secretly slipped a cassette tape into her desk.

After the New Year's Eve party ended, Lu Yunzhou went to Hong Ziyi's classroom again to ask why Hong Ziyi hadn't come to school.

My best friend casually said, "Didn't you know? Because of her brother's situation—her whole family immigrated to Italy."

"Italy, Italy—"

Young Lu Yunzhou murmured to himself, as if Italy was etched into his heart!

-

-

More than a decade later.

Amidst the farewells of countless people, Lu Yunzhou appeared at the airport and boarded a plane bound for Italy!

"Italy, here I come!"

Throughout these montage shots, the background music never stopped.

"Some distant places, let the wind take our place."

"That sentence I didn't have the courage to finish saying, I hope someone has heard it—"

As the background music ended.

The audience completely understood that this song was not about Bai Zhiyuan's feelings for Hong Ziyi at this moment, but rather about Bai Zhiyuan's deep affection in his youth!

I hope someone has heard the words I didn't have the courage to say.

For some distant places, let the wind carry you there!

-

More than a decade later, the boy Bai Zhiyuan grew up into the handsome Lu Yunzhou, and he also went to Italy!

He went to find his white moonlight!

"sweet!"

"Perfect!"

Such deep affection!

"I believe in love again!"

"Porridge, I want porridge—Mom, I've fallen in love with Lu Yunzhou! This is the Lu Yunzhou I've always imagined! He's even more perfect than I thought!"

"Jingjing, what's wrong?"

Although this part is very beautiful, emotional, and touching, surely my own daughter doesn't have to cry so much?

When Zhang Jingyi's mother saw her daughter, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably; she thought her daughter had gone mad.

-

"It's nothing. It's just that this part was very touching."

Zhang Jingyi didn't know how to explain.

Because at that moment, she felt the same way.

She longed to fly to Montreal right now, to throw herself into Lu Yunzhou's arms, and shout to him—Tiamo!

"This song was written by Lu Yunzhou, right? I looked it up after listening to it yesterday. Huang Yida did the arrangement, and Lu Yunzhou wrote the lyrics and music himself."

"He's truly outstanding!"

Zhang Jingyi's mother gained a completely new understanding of Lu Yunzhou.

Lu Yunzhou himself is even more outstanding than Bai Zhiyuan, the male lead in the TV series!

In general, when filming idol dramas, the male lead is an all-rounder, invincible. There has never been a male lead in an idol drama who is actually a low-budget version of the actor himself.

Upon learning of this, Zhang Jingyi's mother was nearly drunk.

She then realized, no wonder Lu Yunzhou had so many dream girls online!

Back to the plot.

The family happily went to the beach, collecting seashells and catching crabs.

The sun is shining brightly, and the breeze is soothing.

Hong Ziyi had a wonderful afternoon in a small seaside village in Wenzhou.

"Sister, let's make a seafood platter tonight."

They brought back quite a few good things from the beach, and Lu Yunzhou casually remarked to the older sister played by Sun Yanzi.

Sun Yanzi said impatiently, "You brat, all you do is order me around. We're out of liquor at home, go to the store in town and get a few bottles. And pick up Dad while you're at it."

"receive!"

After Lu Yunzhou finished speaking, he rode his electric scooter to his family's small supermarket in town.

At the same time, Hong Ziyi entered the house to offer her help.

The older sister and younger brother and sister-in-law were busy working together in the kitchen.

For some reason, the older sister, played by Sun Yanzi, suddenly burst out laughing: "Ziyi, do you remember the first time we met?"

"Um.

""

Hong Ziyi nodded gently, then covered her mouth and smiled, "Back then, my sister had a big misunderstanding about me."

Flashback.

One Christmas, my sister and brother-in-law went to Italy to visit the male lead played by Lu Yunzhou.

As it turned out, the older sister learned that Lu Yunzhou and Hong Ziyi were dating.

A fiercely protective brother mode instantly took over.

The older sister arranged to meet Hong Ziyi, and to Hong Ziyi's astonishment, she directly handed her 1 euros: "I know, my brother is handsome and comes from a good family. An ordinary girl like you is not good enough for my brother—I know what you want. Here is 1 euros, take this money—"

"Sis, what are you doing?"

Just then, the male protagonist, having received the news, rushed over, too embarrassed to speak, and simply pulled Hong Ziyi away.

-

Then, the scene changes.

At the wedding of the male and female leads, the older sister, facing all the guests, boasted, "I knew at first sight that Ziyi was the perfect daughter-in-law sent to the Bai family by heaven!"

"I give up!"

"Director Wu Xiaoqiang is truly talented, casting Sun Yanzi in such a comedic older sister role!"

"Yanzi's acting is phenomenal! She's completely natural in the role, it felt like she was just playing herself. Maybe Yanzi is like that in real life!"

"I still remember seeing a news report from years ago about Sun Yanzi getting bird droppings on her head and being forced by her husband to wash her hair in a park restroom—"

—Haha, I can picture it now.

Congratulations to Sun Yanzi! She has finally found her niche in acting!

"This show is absolutely amazing!"

"I have this feeling that these veteran actors, and even amateurs like Sun Yanzi who are just making cameo appearances, aren't here to act, but just to mess with Zhou Zhou!"

"Our Zhouzhou will be ruined by these people sooner or later!"

The story continues.

Sun Yanzi quickly prepared the seafood and said to Hong Ziyi, "This is almost done, just waiting to be cooked. Go upstairs and rest for a while."

"Um.

""

Seeing that there was nothing else needed to do, Hong Ziyi left the kitchen.

Suddenly, my vision spun around and became blurry.

She knew she was having an episode.

When she woke up, her shoes were gone, her feet were muddy, her knees were scraped, her hands were bloody, and there was dry grass in her hair.

Looking up, I had no idea where I was.

The world was vast and empty, and she was all alone!

Meanwhile, the male protagonist, played by Lu Yunzhou, returns home but can't find anyone.

-

He rode his electric bike, frantically searching for people everywhere.

After searching the village, and following the two roads leading to and from the village entrance, I kept looking for Hong Ziyi.

Can't find it.

Can't find it at all.

It was completely dark by then.

He was covered in sweat, his clothes were soaked, and sweat was pouring down his forehead. It was hard to tell whether it was from anxiety or exhaustion.

Finally, in a field, he vaguely saw a figure.

He twisted the handlebars of the electric scooter, which then sped off with a whirring sound.

Next shot.

The male protagonist finally found Hong Ziyi. He parked his electric scooter, his face showing a hint of anger, but more so, anxiety.

Hong Ziyi, standing in the distance, raised her head, her eyes flickering slightly, looking so small and helpless.

"What's wrong with you?"

-

"Do you know that everyone is looking for you?"

The male protagonist suppressed his anger; he felt like he was going crazy.

"I was just taking a walk."

The female lead remains aloof and stubborn, unwilling to show any vulnerability in front of the male lead.

"There's no one here, not even a light. You're telling me you're taking a walk here? Do you know how dangerous it is to walk in an unfamiliar place?"

Although the male protagonist's lines carry a hint of anger, they are full of reason.

"Yes, just taking a walk."

The female lead replied coldly.

"You'll always be like this. I was just being nosy."

The male protagonist was speechless. Years of marriage had long made him understand what kind of person the female protagonist was.

There was absolutely no way to communicate.

Watching the male protagonist turn and leave, the female protagonist realized for the first time that she was wrong. She took a small step forward, wanting to say a few words to persuade him to stay.

But she suddenly realized that she wasn't wearing shoes and had stepped on a stone.

She let out a soft "Ouch."

"What's wrong?"

Hearing the commotion behind him, the male protagonist turned around and discovered that the female protagonist was not wearing shoes, and her feet were blistered and bleeding.

"Why."

He took a deep breath, walked forward with a pained expression, and gave the female lead a princess carry.

At this moment, the muscles in Lu Yunzhou's arms trembled like threads.

His boyfriend-like qualities are simply amazing!

The female lead, Hong Ziyi, was clearly startled, a look of shock appearing on her face, and then she fell silent.

"What happened?"

My heart was pounding like a deer's.

The female protagonist had this inner monologue.

Just then, it started to rain.

The two quickly rode their electric bikes home.

The female lead, Hong Ziyi, took a shower, while the male lead carefully took iodine swabs and gently cleaned the wounds on her hands and feet, then applied bandages.

"actually----"

Seeing how considerate and caring the male lead was, the female lead's heart softened, and she looked up, wanting to explain a few words.

Turn around.

The male protagonist coldly turned her head away, then picked up a hairdryer and slowly dried her hair.

Here, the two locked eyes, exuding an air of ambiguity.

But that's not the point.

Suddenly, the female protagonist casually mentioned, "You know, the beach we went to this afternoon had some disasters that happened there before?"

"Um."

The male protagonist nodded slightly: "It seems to be when I was in middle school. I remember something like that."

Flashback.

One summer more than a decade ago.

A group of children were playing in the sea, all wearing swimming rings, so there shouldn't have been anything wrong.

But suddenly, someone was swept away by the wave.

Then, the swimming ring disappeared too.

The camera was blurry, making it difficult to see clearly, which made viewers want to curse.

After a long time, a child dragged a barely alive girl ashore and wiped her face on the bank.

Immediately afterwards, the boy's adult arrived and pulled him away.

Not long after, police cars arrived, and so did ambulances.

The girl sat there in a daze, only hearing her parents frantically scolding her in front of her—

The camera pans to the other side.

There was a boy there, covered with a white sheet, his hands hanging down, motionless, being taken away by an ambulance.

The camera flashes back.

As the girl nearly drowned, she vaguely opened her eyes and saw a blurry figure struggling to pull her out of the sea.

Later, the boy was pulled away by his adult—the girl was lying on the ground, already awake, surrounded by many people.

However, her gaze remained fixed on the boy's back.

Episode 10 is over!

"what!"

"I think I know something."

After watching episode 10, Zhang Jingyi's mother slammed her hand on the table and exclaimed, "No wonder the female lead is so indifferent to the male lead!"

It turns out, she already had someone else in her heart.

"However, she didn't know that the boy who saved her life when she was a child, the one she would never forget, was actually the male protagonist!"

"So, the current situation is—the male protagonist doesn't know that the white moonlight he likes is actually the female protagonist, while the female protagonist already knows that she is his white moonlight and is secretly happy."

"On the other hand, the female protagonist doesn't know that the boy who saved her life is the male protagonist. The male protagonist also doesn't know that the girl he saved is actually the female protagonist—"

"This drama has really whetted my appetite!"

"Thankfully, there are two more episodes to watch at 10 PM!"

The plot of the drama "Queen of Tears" isn't particularly unusual.

However, the screenwriter cleverly combined many classic scenes from idol dramas by rearranging them.

This drama can even be described as a collection of melodramatic plot points!

However, the more melodramatic the plot, the more the audience gets emotionally involved, the more addicted they become, and the more they feel compelled to watch until the end.

Clearly, the entire nation is now eager to know when the two of them will reveal their identities to each other and tell one another, "I am your white moonlight, and I am also your savior!"

Online comments reached a new level after the airing of episode 10.

"The King of Chu, what a scheming woman!"

"She should have told Zhouzhou that she was his ideal woman—all the misunderstandings would have been cleared up. But instead, she kept quiet and secretly rejoiced!"

"The person upstairs is wrong! King Chu didn't love Zhouzhou at all. She was of marriageable age, and Zhouzhou was handsome, talented, and willing to take a bullet for her. So she reluctantly married him."

"A cold, strong woman like her doesn't need love; what she wants is a capable husband, a bulletproof young man who can share her burdens and solve her problems!"

"Furthermore, the only person the Queen of Chu truly loved was probably the man who saved her life when she was a child—however, the Queen of Chu was unaware that this savior was her husband. She tormented her lover for three whole years!"

"Even the good-natured male lead couldn't stand her and insisted on divorcing her, even at the cost of his life!"

"This is God's punishment for her!"

"She can't find anyone who loves her, and she doesn't deserve Zhouzhou's love!"

"Zhouzhou is so pitiful—he's so good, so devoted, and he worked hard for over ten years to find his true love, even going to study in Italy, only to fall for such a heartless woman. It really breaks my heart!"

"Zhouzhou, love me, I promise I won't let you down!"

Online public opinion has completely rallied in Lu Yunzhou's favor.

Wang Ran has some popularity, but not many.

Especially after episode 10 aired, many people online analyzed and found that the male lead, Lu Yunzhou, was simply too perfect!

In contrast, the female protagonist, Wang Ran, appears extremely cold and selfish.

Moreover, not everyone likes Wang Churan's arrogant persona.

On the contrary, Bai Zhiyuan's character, who is loyal, affectionate, and has a warm and loving family, is more likable.

The main reason is that Bai Zhiyuan is played by Lu Yunzhou, and there are tens of millions of female fans online who want to drink porridge. He speaks very loudly.

Montreal.

Lu Yunzhou ate breakfast at home and then went to work.

Suddenly, he saw a transfer message pop up on his WeChat. When he opened it, he was surprised to find that Zhang Jingyi had transferred 10,000 yuan to him.

-

What does that mean?

Why are you transferring money to me?

Lu Yunzhou paused for a moment, then quickly typed, asking Zhang Jingyi, "Jingjing, did you transfer to the wrong person?"

Lu Yunzhou tapped the box and declined the offer.

As a result, Zhang Jingyi immediately transferred another 10,000 yuan.

"Brother, this isn't a mistake, it's for you!"

Zhang Jingyi replied quickly: "Brother, I earned 5000 yuan this week. Adding what I earned before, I kept 2000 yuan for myself, and I'll transfer the rest to you. Take good care of yourself. Don't mistreat yourself while working abroad."

Ah, this?

Lu Yunzhou was completely dumbfounded.

Even someone as intelligent as him couldn't figure it out. What was Zhang Jingyi up to?

He stared at the transfer record, remaining silent for a long time. He wanted to say something, but didn't know what to reply. In the end, he only replied with two words: "Thank you."

A light rain began to fall in Montreal outside the window, and for the first time, he felt that he was getting worse and worse.

"Seriously, is Jingjing raising me like a son?"

Upon arriving at the company, Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but open his WeChat chat history. Looking at Zhang Jingyi's words, they sounded just like what his mother would say.

Did he unintentionally awaken Zhang Jingyi's maternal aura?

However, for no apparent reason, how was Zhang Jingyi's maternal aura suddenly activated?

Why did she suddenly start feeling sorry for herself for no reason?

After thinking it over, Lu Yunzhou could only come up with one possibility, and couldn't help but sigh, "Idol dramas really do a lot of harm."

As for this ten thousand yuan—

"Fine, I'll help you with a fixed investment in Nvidia! I'll give you a little surprise later."

Zhang Jingyi only had 12000 yuan on her, but she gave him 10,000 yuan, which made Lu Yunzhou feel both sweet and bitter.

For the first time in his life, he was filled with guilt.

Lu Yunzhou had heard someone say before that there are three levels of being a person.

The first stage is realizing that not everyone in this world is a good person.

The second level is: not caring whether other people are good or bad.

The third stage is: discovering that you are not a good person either.

Zhang Jingyi directly propelled Lu Yunzhou's life to its third level!

"Oh, Jingjing, it turns out you were my nemesis!"

Lu Yunzhou now has a feeling that if his career collapses in the future, it won't be because of Zhang Ruonan, nor because of Wang Churan, Tang Yan, or Tian Xiwei.

As for Nazha and Liu Haocun, that's even more impossible.

The only possibility is that the collapse will be on Zhang Jingyi's shoulders!

Because, for the first time, he felt guilty.

Zhang Jingyi brutally exposed a flaw in his flawless composure as a powerful figure.
