Chapter 1184: 558 The Split, with Mr. Yu held in high esteem by the Feng family [2 updates]_2
He was still negotiating with the other members of the royal family, so how could Si Fuqing directly hit the royal family at their core?!
Qu Lingyun fell silent before speaking, “Once Miss Si has finished memorizing her lines, we can start shooting the first scene.”
The assistant director had not yet responded when Si Fuqing raised her hand and said, “I have already memorized the lines for the first scene, we can start right away.”
As soon as she said this, the staff on the set could not help but be surprised.
How long had Si Fuqing been with the script?
Could she truly have a photographic memory?
After overcoming his shock, Qu Lingyun nodded and said, “All right, let’s begin. Make-up artists, stylists, please take Teacher Si to change into her costume.”
After Si Fuqing entered the makeup room, Qu Lingyun pounded his chest, drank a large bottle of water, but still felt his heart could barely cope.
He had worked with many talented actors, but he had never encountered anyone who could memorize lines as quickly as Si Fuqing, not even the international superstar Yun Lan.
“Director Qu, should you take a pill?” Sang Yanqing approached with concern, “This is an improved version of the fast-acting heart-saving pills, very beneficial for the heart.”
Qu Lingyun hesitated for a moment before accepting the pill and swallowing it.
His heart indeed felt much better.
Sang Yanqing did not forget to market her product, “Director Qu, do you want to buy a bottle to protect yourself?”
Qu Lingyun, “…Give me three bottles.”
After selling three bottles of Sisi-brand fast-acting heart-saving pills, Sang Yanqing transferred the money to Si Fuqing.
She had helped her artist earn some extra income, which would surely make her artist happy.

Meanwhile, in the Southern Region.
At the Feng Residence.
Bodyguards were hurrying in and out with urgent expressions.
Feng Zhaoyi was continually searching for all information related to Si Fuqing on the computer.
To her disappointment, she couldn’t find any dirt at all.
Who in the entertainment industry didn’t have a skeleton in their closet?
“The Sea Sacrifice is coming up soon.” Madam Feng walked in with a tray of fruit, “Zhaoyi, it’s your turn to carry the flag this time; you should rest up these next few days.”
The Sea Sacrifice was a large ceremony held annually by the Feng family to honor the spirits of the tens of thousands of soldiers who died at sea in battle.
The Feng family held this ceremony as a reminder that history should not be forgotten.
Madam Feng did not like this ritual; in her opinion, it was unnecessary and a waste of resources.
But there was no helping it; all members of the Feng family had to participate.
Feng Zhaoyi, still focused on her computer screen, didn’t look up. “Mom, I know.”
“Don’t put too much thought into that little star.” Madam Feng nodded with satisfaction, “You have more important things to prepare for. After the Sea Sacrifice, you will compete for the family’s heir position, Yiyi, you must make me proud.”
Feng Zhaoyi felt irritable.
She didn’t want to pay attention to Si Fuqing, but she couldn’t swallow her pride.
Si Fuqing had almost become a demon in her heart, one she had to vanquish.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Feng Zhaoyi didn’t look up, “Come in.”
The bodyguard pushed open the door, respectfully announced, “Miss Zhaoyi, the Supreme Elder is calling everyone to the hall.”
Feng Zhaoyi immediately put down her pen and went out with Madam Feng.
In the hall, all immediate members of the Feng family had assembled.
The Supreme Elder of the Feng family was beaming with joy, a sentiment that everyone could feel.
They looked at one another, puzzled.
Could it be that some highly auspicious event was about to happen?
“A prestigious guest will attend this Sea Sacrifice, and you must not disappoint,” the Supreme Elder pronounced with gravity, “No need to try too hard to stand out, just be your most genuine selves.”
He was determined to show His Majesty that even after a thousand years, the Feng family still honored the loyal bones of their ancestors and lived up to the teachings of their forebears.
Hearing this, everyone’s expression grew solemn, and they nodded earnestly.
Feng Zhaoyi was taken aback.
Over the years, the Feng family had invited many to the Sea Sacrifice, including the Mo family, the Thousand Army Alliance, and the Miracle Doctor Alliance.
Last time the Family Head and elders of the Mo family came to the Southern Region, the Supreme Elder had not called everyone together to give special instructions.
Who could be this esteemed guest?
Could it be someone from the Free State?
Feng Zhaoyi pursed her lips, asking a nearby youth, “Do you have any news?”
The youth was indifferent, “Didn’t you hear the Supreme Elder say that just being ordinary is enough?”
Feng Zhaoyi was at a loss for words.
Of course, she knew that, but she still had to prepare in advance.
What if she offended the prestigious guest mentioned by the Supreme Elder?
Feng Zhaoyi wanted to ask more, but the youth had already left, leaving her looking displeased.
Although the news about her dismissal from T18 had not spread, she had been staying home at the Feng residence recently, anyone astute could have guessed it.
Feng Zhaoyi clenched her fists, feeling extremely resentful.
She shook her head, reminding herself that she must perform well in the Sea Sacrifice ceremony. If she could gain the favor of the prominent guest, perhaps she might even be able to enter the Free State.
Elsewhere, the Supreme Elder of the Feng family was contacting Yu Xiheng, expressing his utmost respect, “Your… Mister, I hope both you and Miss Si can attend the Sea Sacrifice. If any of the juniors could be fortunate enough to receive your guidance, it would be immensely appreciated.”
“Mm,” said Yu Xiheng, “I will go.”
“Very good, very good,” the Supreme Elder of the Feng family was pleased, “May I inquire as to what Miss Si likes? So I can prepare in advance.”
“No need,” Yu Xiheng spoke indifferently, “I will take care of it.”
The Supreme Elder of the Feng family understood, “We await both of your arrivals.”
After ending the call, he still couldn’t contain his excitement.
“Supreme Elder.” At that moment, the butler appeared silently, “Here is the list of invitees for this event, for your review.”
The Supreme Elder of the Feng family took it, glanced at it, and frowned, “Strike the Yu family from the list, not one of them is allowed to come.”
The butler was taken aback, “Ah? But the Yu family patriarch just called to say they had prepared gifts, and he wanted to convey his regards to you.”
The Supreme Elder of the Feng family let out a cold laugh, “Tell them to get lost.”
The Feng family honored Yu Xiheng, what was the Yu family dreaming of?
