Ye Xiao looked down on Ye Bingtong with disdain, "With your level of talent, even if you had the entire script, you couldn't bring much to the performance."
It wasn't just idle talk from Ye Xiao.
In the book, although Ye Bingtong was successfully selected.
Regrettably, her selection was not due to her acting skills.
On the contrary, Li Mingyu wasn't satisfied with her acting.
Ye Bingtong "just happened" to show her gentleness and kindness by saving Li Mingyu's grandson who had fallen into the water, the grandchild Li Mingyu cherished the most. That's what lead to breaking the principles and giving the role to Ye Bingtong.
Afterward, during the movie filming, Li Mingyu tried everything to teach her, but the eventual outcome still left her unsatisfied. Yet with no better options, the film had to be hastily released.
