Chapter 298 The Gap Between a Genius's Strength and that of an Ordinary Person
Chang Wenfeng had already noted down the parts that needed to be modified, and he quickly returned to the props team's studio to work overtime to catch up.
Before he even entered the house, he heard someone complaining inside.
"I've never seen anyone come to change the props the day before a makeup test..."
"Well, it's all just work. We just need to do our jobs."
"What's the big deal? Isn't it better to be more careful? If something goes wrong during filming, it will be even more urgent to rush the production later. It's probably a good thing that we discovered it early."
“That’s true,” the voice that started it continued, “but Ye San is such a spoiled brat, why should she change things just like that? Our Brother Chang hasn’t even said anything yet…”
"Shh, don't you know?"
"Do not know what is this?"
Chang Wenfeng pushed open the door and said coldly, "Didn't you know I'm related to her?"
He knew everyone was just getting paid, and he didn't expect everyone to be as passionate about the props industry as he was, but if you're paid to do something, you should at least be responsible in your work.
If it were just some client making random demands, it would be normal to complain a bit, but Ye Sanqing's opinion was clearly professional.
So Chang Wenfeng was annoyed when he heard this, but also ashamed. He felt that he might have been lazy in his attitude, which made the people in the group feel that he could speak so casually.
"Brother Chang, I'm sorry, I didn't know... she's your cousin?" The first to speak was Xiao Xu, whom Chang Wenfeng valued.
Xiao Xu can be a bit lazy at times and a bit slick, but he's reliable at his job, so Chang Wenfeng usually doesn't bother with him much.
But if you can't keep your mouth shut, you'll get into trouble sooner or later. Ye Sanqing is fine, he won't mind this kind of thing, but what about in the future?
To survive in this industry, you can't just be good at reading people's expressions, nor can you immediately get angry when someone makes a request.
“Whether I’m related to her or not isn’t the point. The point is that these props definitely have problems.” Chang Wenfeng said with some self-reproach, “I didn’t say anything, and none of you noticed the problem? Now Ye Sanqing has to point it out. Don’t you feel ashamed? Instead, you think the person who points out the problem is the problem, is that it?”
Everyone was silent.
Actually, their actions aren't necessarily wrong; it's just the typical mindset of working people—better to avoid trouble. However, this industry is ultimately special, and there are potential safety risks, so it can't be treated so casually.
"I also need to reflect on whether I've been too lax in my attitude. All of you are like that. Help out now! Go back and think about it carefully, and correct your work attitude!"
The crowd remained silent and could only offer their help in quiet contemplation.
Chang Wenfeng was busy, and so was Ye Sanqing.
She had to go have dinner, and then continue with the script reading that was giving her a headache... Although the most troublesome part was over yesterday, she couldn't forget to go to Sheng Luoxin for extra lessons...
"I'll go see him during my free time after the reading," Ye Sanqing decided, and then sent a message to Sheng Hanyu.
Sheng Hanyu quickly replied, "Sorry, Master Ye, I also need my dad's guidance today."
Ye Sanqing recalled the lack of killing intent he had shown during his practice earlier, which definitely needed improvement. So he said, "Then I'll do it another day. There's no rush. Please let me know when it's convenient for him."

Ye Sanqing then continued his training as scheduled, and then returned to the rest room to soak his feet and relax.
Today, however, we have an unexpected guest.
Lin Qianren and Su Xingyi were both there, and Yan Siqiong sat next to them, looking at them curiously.
"Hmm? Why is Xiao Yan here today? Isn't it bedtime yet?"
Ye Sanqing walked to his seat, sat down, and asked.
"It's still early. I usually go to bed at 10:30. I already told my mom that I'm coming to visit you all today to get to know each other better." Yan Siqiong's nursing care was arranged separately and would be completed after dinner, so she was just sitting there...
"Okay." Ye Sanqing nodded, then didn't say anything more.
She is really bad at small talk.
“Master Ye, I have a question for you, the same one I asked Teacher Lin and Teacher Su earlier.” Yan Siqiong turned to her with a curious gaze, “How long have you been practicing your kung fu?”
"Uh." Faced with her innocent and inquisitive eyes, Ye Sanqing found it hard to lie. But she could only say, "Actually, it wasn't long. I started practicing after I got home... You should know I just got home, right?"
Yan Siqiong nodded calmly, "I know, I also know that the fake Miss Ye was marketing on Weibo today."
Then, a hint of admiration appeared in her eyes. "I told you you were a genius. You went home and started filming variety shows. You've only been practicing for a few months... and you've already reached this level?"
Ye Sanqing stared at her and realized that she didn't doubt, but seemed to really believe.
Sigh, it seems to defy common sense, but there's nothing we can do about it. Strength, like a cough, can't be hidden.
"Yes, my grandfather said I have a good talent."
After Ye Sanqing finished speaking, it wasn't just Yan Siqiong who was envious; Su Xingyi and Lin Qianren also cast envious glances at him.
Ye Sanqing hadn't mentioned this directly before, and her skill level was common knowledge. Was this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person...?
Seeing the gazes of these people, Ye Sanqing felt inexplicably bewildered. Had he said something inappropriate?
However, excessive modesty is just showing off, and she thought that made sense, so she didn't intend to change her story. "I know a little bit about everything, but I'm not an expert in anything. You all have your own specialties and are better than me."
That's true. Although Ye Sanqing is skilled at using any weapon at hand, he might find it difficult to defeat someone who specializes in a particular type of weapon.
But she doesn't participate in specialized competitions... In ordinary times, when she really needs it, it's enough, and she can make up for her weaknesses by leveraging her strengths. So Ye Sanqing didn't care much.
"By the way, Xiao Yan was talking about Ye Wanyin earlier... I was just about to tell you that too, it's hilarious."
Su Xingyi took out his phone and shared Ye Wanyin's Weibo post with Ye Sanqing.
[@晚风徐徐吟几许: @陆望潜v You are both on and off screen [heart]]
Then it was paired with a nine-square grid... um... Ye Sanqing found it hard to describe what this was.
Su Xingyi finished the sentence for her, saying, "This cheap studio-style photo shoot... is the Lu family out of money...?"
Ye Sanqing looked at the seemingly affectionate photo of Ye Wanyin in white ancient costume and Lu Wangqian in red ancient costume...
However, both of their expressions were... Lu Wangqian was still in his usual greasy state, raising his chin in a self-righteous and domineering manner, while Ye Wanyin was being held in his arms in a shy manner. They posted nine photos with similar poses.
There were some auspicious clouds beneath their feet... but it looked like cheap special effects...
Ye Sanqing felt that seeing something like this meant he had to get some eye care tonight.
