Si Huang, however, was wearing the same lunar-white long robes with her hair cascading down her shoulders, just as immaculate as ever. The crew members were shocked when the pair returned on set and joined her. Despite the pair's powerful movie star attire, she did not seem to pale in comparison to them. On the contrary, she looked even more striking than ever, like a beautiful piece of jade, lofty and separate from the mortal world, smooth, flawless, and untainted by even a speck of dust.
Director Liu was stunned. He had never expected this to happen. Regardless of how remarkable Si Huang was or the importance of Mr. Qianji's role, the leading roles belonged to two separate people. It would've been fine if they were evenly matched, but they simply couldn't have Si Huang stealing their thunder!
He moved his lips hesitantly, as he simply couldn't bring himself to ask Si Huang to dim his presence or ask the makeup artist to make him uglier.
