He plays Feng Yuxiu, and his girlfriend is a fairy-like beauty.

The entire room fell silent for about three seconds.

then.

As if something had exploded, whispers arose from all directions.

"Am I seeing things? Liu Yifei is looking for Ye Mo?"

"Do they know each other?"

"Who is that kid? He's got the director's backing and a goddess-like beauty visiting the set?"

"Damn, I'm jealous."

Several young male stagehands glared at Ye Mo with eyes as sharp as knives.

One second he was all smiles and calling me Teacher Ye, the next second his eyes were filled with "Why do you think you are so great?"

Ye Mo felt those gazes and a chill ran down his spine.

He cursed inwardly: Liu Yifei, aren't you trying to screw me over?

But it cannot be shown on the face.

He took a deep breath and his mind raced—in this situation, playing dumb was the safest option.

"Sister Yifei, what brings you here?" Ye Mo greeted her with a smile, her tone natural, neither too intimate nor too distant. "You didn't even tell me you were coming to visit the set, so I could have met you at the entrance."

Liu Yifei glanced at him, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.

She understood what he meant—to keep her distance.

"Just passing by." Liu Yifei's voice was soft and her tone was indifferent. "I heard you were filming here, so I thought I'd drop by."

Two sentences, not a single word more.

The people around them listened and didn't think there was anything special about it.

It was just a regular set visit, a typical exchange of pleasantries.

But that lack of anything special is itself the greatest special thing.

Who is Liu Yifei? He has been in the industry for over a decade and has never publicly visited anyone on set.

Today, for the first time ever, he came and specifically asked for Ye Mo by name—anyone would have to think about this.

"Come, come, Sister Yifei, let me introduce you." Ye Mo turned around and walked towards Lu Yang, with Liu Yifei following behind him.

Lu Yang had already stood up from his chair.

"Director Lu, this is Liu Yifei, my... friend." Ye Mo smiled. "Sister Yifei, this is Director Lu Yang."

Lu Yang extended his hand with a smile: "Yifei, long time no see."

"Hello, Director Lu." Liu Yifei shook hands with him and nodded slightly.

The two had met at an event before; they weren't close, but they knew each other.

"Teacher Wang, this is Liu Yifei." Ye Mo walked up to Wang Qianyuan again.

Wang Qianyuan had already put down his water glass, a polite smile on his face: "Yifei, long time no see."

"Hello, Teacher Wang." Liu Yifei nodded politely.

Wang Qianyuan quickly calculated in his mind—Ye Mo called Liu Yifei "Sister Yifei," and Liu Yifei didn't object.

The two seem to have a distant but not close relationship, but the fact that they address each other so naturally suggests they are not just ordinary friends.

However... Ye Mo is just a minor actor now, while Liu Yifei is a top-tier actress.

What could these two possibly have in common?

"Teacher Nie." Ye Mo walked up to Nie Yuan.

Nie Yuan leaned against the RV with his hands in his pockets, and as Liu Yifei walked over, he extended his hand and said, "Yifei, it's been a long time."

"Hello, Teacher Nie." Liu Yifei shook hands briefly, then let go.

Nie Yuan smiled but didn't say anything more.

But he was also thinking to himself—everyone in the industry knows that Liu Yifei doesn't like socializing or attending social events.

It doesn't make sense that she would make a special trip to visit a newcomer on set.

Unless, of course, the relationship between these two is unusual.

But judging from Ye Mo's composed demeanor, it didn't seem like he was hiding anything.

Forget it, I don't want to.

Other people's business is none of my concern.

"Teacher Li." Ye Mo walked up to Li Dongxue again.

Li Dongxue, a man of few words, nodded and said "Hello." Liu Yifei also nodded and replied, "Hello."

Simple, straightforward, and without unnecessary fuss.

Finally, Ye Mo looked around. Liu Sishi was standing at the door of the dressing room and didn't come over.

He hesitated for a moment, then walked over and said, "Sister Sishi, this is Liu Yifei."

Liu Yifei looked at Liu Sishi, and the two stared at each other for a second.

"Si Shi," Liu Yifei spoke first, his tone flat.

"No, not at all." Liu Sishi nodded as well.

The two did not shake hands or exchange pleasantries.

But that subtle sense of distance feels more real than deliberate warmth.

The staff members nearby stared in disbelief.

"Look at them, they know all the big shots."

"Ye Mo's connections are incredible."

"What do you think his relationship with Liu Yifei is?"

"I don't know, but it's definitely not simple."

"So what if she's not simple? Someone of Liu Yifei's caliber wouldn't be interested in a nobody like her, would they?"

"Too……"

Several male stagehands huddled together, their voices low, but their expressions betrayed their true feelings.

"Damn it, did Ye Mo save the galaxy in his past life?"

"With Director Lu praising him and Liu Yifei visiting the set, I'm so jealous."

"What are you so sour about? They're capable, do you?"

"I don't have any, but I can be sour!"

……

Ye Mo led Liu Yifei around for a while and returned to the monitor.

Lu Yang had already offered his chair: "Yifei, sit down."

"Thank you, Director Lu, but no need." Liu Yifei shook her head. "I'll only stay for a little while, I won't delay your filming."

She turned to look at Ye Mo: "You take your pictures, I'll just watch from the side."

Ye Mo nodded, feeling relieved.

Not bad, didn't give it away.

He crouched back behind the monitor, and Liu Yifei stood two steps behind him, watching quietly.

He didn't speak, didn't use his phone, and didn't look around.

He just stood there, occasionally blinking.

The staff would steal glances at her every now and then.

"It's so beautiful..."

"I'm even better looking in person than on TV."

"You mean she and Ye Mo are really just friends?"

"Otherwise what? What else do you want?"

"I just think... Ye Mo is just too lucky."

……

Wang Qianyuan returned to the rest area, picked up his water glass, and took a sip.

The assistant leaned over and whispered, "Teacher Wang, what's the relationship between Liu Yifei and Ye Mo?"

Wang Qianyuan glanced at him: "What business is it of yours?"

"I'm just curious..."

"Keep your curiosity to yourself." Wang Qianyuan put down his water glass. "It's their private matter, don't pry."

The assistant shut up.

But Wang Qianyuan himself was thinking—Ye Mo called Liu Yifei "Sister Yifei," and Liu Yifei didn't refuse.

This name is neither too close nor too distant.

Ye Mo is just a minor actress now, while Liu Yifei is a top-tier actress.

It seems highly unlikely that these two people are together.

Nie Yuan returned to the RV, lay down, and stared at the ceiling.

The assistant cautiously began, "Professor Nie, you said..."

"I don't know anything," Nie Yuan interrupted him. "Don't ask me."

The assistant obediently shut up.

Nie Yuan closed his eyes, but his mind was still racing—Liu Yifei was known for his aloofness.

She made a special trip to visit a newcomer on set; anyone would think something about that.

But then I thought about it again, Ye Mo's current status is nowhere near Liu Yifei's.

Even if something were to happen, it wouldn't be that serious.

Liu Sishi stood at the door of the dressing room, watching Liu Yifei's back.

The makeup artist leaned closer and whispered, "Sister Sishi, what do you think she's here for?"

"I don't know." Liu Sishi looked away and turned to walk into the dressing room.

Aren't you curious?

"Not curious."

Liu Sishi sat back down in her chair, picked up her makeup brush, and continued to touch up her makeup.

But one question kept running through her mind—the way Liu Yifei looked at Ye Mo was different from how she looked at other people.

She couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.

But it's just different.

……

Filming has resumed.

Ye Mo crouched behind the monitor, with Liu Yifei standing behind him.

Lu Yang held the walkie-talkie and directed the next scene.

Everything is back to normal.

But everyone knows that what happened today will keep them talking for a month.
