From another perspective, Xi De understood why Zheng Xiong doted on Yue Qin. It was not only because of Yue Qin’s beauty, but also because of the unusual coldness on her.

This hint of coldness would undoubtedly inspire a man’s interest and desire for challenge.

Yue Qin walked to the second floor of the teahouse and sat in the middle of the back row of the audience.

This was actually not the best place to watch a show, but this position gave people a sense of security. Not only could they observe the movements of the entire second floor, but they would also not leave their backs to others.

There were many empty seats below the stage. Ding Zhi had not told Lu Zhen where she should sit previously. Seeing that Lu Zhen had chosen to sit in the middle of the back row, Ding Zhi knew that Lu Zhen definitely had a deep understanding of the role of Yue Qin.

After Yue Qin sat down, the actors and actresses who had long been prepared went on stage one after another. Music sounded, and the actor’s bright and crisp singing voice echoed in the teahouse.

When Yue Qin listened to the show, she did not have much of an expression and her reaction was not as intense as the other audience. Those who did not know would probably think that she was an outsider who did not know how to act.

Halfway through the performance, the audience applauded. Yue Qin also raised her hand and clapped lightly. Her actions were casual, and it was impossible to tell if she was satisfied with this scene.

Seeing Lu Zhen’s performance, Xu Rui frowned. She could not help but turn to Xi De and whisper, “Isn’t this performance too plain?

The close-up shot swept across Lu Zhen’s face. There was actually no fluctuation in her eyes. If her reaction was so calm, wouldn’t it be a waste of the close-up shot of more than ten seconds?

Xu Rui felt a little gloating and regretful.

She was happy that Lu Zhen had messed up. Unfortunately, if she was the female lead, she would definitely add some rich eye scenes in this performance to reflect the changes in the character’s heart. Only then could she show her acting skills.

Hearing Xu Rui’s words, Xi De did not even look at Xu Rui. He just said calmly,

“Continue watching.”

Xi De’s cold attitude made Xu Rui a little unhappy. She wanted to say something, but Ding Zhi glanced at Xu Rui from the corner of his eye. Xu Rui immediately became nervous and stopped talking.

The performance was almost over. The actor on the stage started to sing sadly. The last few lines were the most intense part of the entire performance. The suppressed emotions in front were vented here. The actor’s voice was trembling as if he was crying. It was extremely sad.

The few actors who were immersed in their emotions even had reddened eyes.

The last few lines meant: Life is like morning dew. Time passes easily, and youth is gone. Things are the same, but people have changed. We can no longer go back to the past. We can only bury the past in our hearts and continue forward alone.

Hearing these few lines, Yue Qin, who had been sitting in the back row without any emotions, finally had a change in expression.

She raised her half-lowered eyes to the stage, but her gaze wasn’t focused on any of the actors. Her out-of-focus eyes were looking somewhere.

At this moment, Yue Qin seemed to have removed her mask, allowing others to see an unfamiliar side. Her empty eyes revealed a numb sense of fragmentation. Although one could not see any violent emotions, it was even more attractive.

One could imagine that when the audience saw this scene, they would guess in their hearts: What was Yue Qin thinking at this moment? What kind of story did she have?

By the time the performance was over, it was almost dark outside. The audience stood up and left the teahouse

The tea was cold when people left. The table was filled with melon seeds shells and unfinished tea. On the stage, the actors were also tidying their clothes and holding the props in their hands, preparing to leave the stage.

An empty loneliness was conveyed to the audience through the empty camera. In the middle of this scene, the woman sitting in the back row of the audience was like a statue, as if she had forgotten to leave.

Xu Rui, who was behind Ding Zhi, looked at Lu Zhen in the image and felt a little disdainful. With such acting skills? He might as well let her do it!

Lu Zhen must have known that she couldn’t act well as Yue Qin, so in order not to make a mistake, she chose this calm performance method. What a waste of this minute-long close-up shot. If only she could have more than a dozen ways to make the audience remember her face in this minute.

After sitting for a while, another camera rolled over. Yue Qin stood up from her seat and walked out. It seemed like she was about to leave the teahouse..
