Ran Xueyi, who was at the studio, didn't know that Song Yu Han had already revealed his relationship with her to his special assistant. Looking at the script in her hand, she read the lines she would be saying in front of the camera and tried to memorize them.

But simply memorizing the words that her role was about to say was not enough. She needed to bring forth the emotions and expressions of the princess who would steal the hero from the heroine.

"Xiao Xueyi, how's it going with you?" Director Lan came to stand beside her with a bottle of water. He handed it to her and looked at the script in her hand, "Princess Yun, the role you'll be playing, have you understood her character yet?"

As an actress, one must understand the character they will play. From the way they act, speak, and think, a capable and talented actor or actress will need to grasp all of that to perfect the role.

Ran Xueyi nodded and took the bottle from him, "Before the audition, I already read the novel. However, there were not many scenes for Princess Yun, and every time she showed up, it would always be the moment when she needed to bully Princess Wei."

Director Lan grabbed a stool to sit beside her. "That's just how her character is portrayed. Though the script might have changed some of the scenes and made her an even more evil villainess. This time, Xueyi, you might suffer when the movie is released."

Ran Xueyi smiled: "Then, I better do a great job to make the audience hate me even more."

Director Lan raised an eyebrow. He was impressed that she would be willing to take the role bravely. If it were some other actress, they would be afraid of being hated by the fans and torn apart by them. Though the characters they played and their roles were up to the scriptwriters and the novel, the actresses and actors would still attract hatred if they did well in their acting.

That was why many actresses who played the role of a villain would tone down the evilness of their character until the directors said it was passable. It was because they didn't want to tarnish their image and continue being hated by the masses because of the villain roles they portrayed in the movies and dramas.

But Ran Xueyi planned otherwise. The more people hated her and her role, the more people would be attracted to her, albeit the opposite kind of attraction many others would like to have. But the risks did not overwhelm the gains and benefits she will gain from this role.

Thus, she wanted to do better.

After speaking with Director Lan, Ran Xueyi waited until the main leads were done with their scenes. Her role for today did not have many scenes in the novel, but the movie had many scenes of her bullying the princess. But today, Ran Xueyi was only here to observe the studio and how things were flowing in the filming site.

Six Years had been lost for nothing, and her youth was wasted for worthless things. Ran Xueyi deeply regretted not having done anything at all during those years.

Now, she has to start from the very beginning. So instead of acting as if she was a veteran actress who won tons of awards in the past, Ran Xueyi acted like a newbie.

As she watched the crew work, lunch arrived quickly, calling for the scenes to a stop for a momentary break. A staff member approached Ran Xueyi and gave her a disposable lunch box that she accepted and thanked the staff.

Opening the lunch box, Ran Xueyi couldn't help but frown at the sight of the food that was given to her. There was hard rice, vegetables, and little meat inside the lunch box. It was not very tasty and appealing. But still, Ran Xueyi surprisingly finished the lunch box as if nothing was wrong.

From what she heard, Ran Yue was supposed to play the female lead in the movie. However, she backed out from the role before the day of the shooting began, and Meng Chen got the role by luck.

Looking down at the lunch box she had finished, Ran Xueyi could guess who did it.

Ran Yue, who was sitting inside the car outside the studio of <<The Great Empress Love>> saw the staff she ordered to mess with Ran Xueyi's lunch box return. She excitedly opened the car door and welcomed the staff member with a warm smile.

"Did she eat it?" Ran Yue asked the staff.

The staff member nodded his head and replied, "Yes, I even saw her finish it all!"

"What? She finished it all?" Ran Yue asked in disbelief. The food inside the lunch box was too cheap and coarse. How did Ran Xueyi finish them all without feeling disgusted?

Ran Yue could remember that Ran Xueyi hated eating outside. She never saw her older sister eat from a cheap restaurant and would always avoid it because she feared that she would end up feeling sick after eating some.

Then, why did Ran Xueyi finish it?

"Did she see you come here?" asked Ran Yue and looked around.

The staff scratched his chin, "No. When I left, she was still sitting on the stool at the corner of the studio. So, I don't think she knew you sent me there to replace her lunch box."

Hearing the staff say that she was not found out, Ran Yue finally relaxed.

The staff glanced down and leered on Ran Yue's exposed white, long legs. He lapped his lips with his tongue lecherously before asking, "Should I continue replacing her lunch box?"

Ran Yue did not notice how the staff was looking at her. It was her manager who saw it and glared at the staff member. However, Manager Zhang didn't scold him since Ran Yue still needed him to mess with Ran Xueyi.

The staff member was one of the crazy fans of her artist, Ran Yue, and coincidentally, he was part of the crew of the movie Ran Xueyi was part of, and thus, Ran Yue pulled some favors from him to mess with Ran Xueyi's lunch box.

Because she had to pull back from her role as the female lead of the movie by Yang Baihua's order, Ran Yue wanted nothing more to mess with Ran Xueyi's time in the studio.

Blame yourself for going against me, Sister. Ran Yue thought to herself with a smile.
