The crew of Hunting Allure officially started its second round of production a week later. The female lead was changed from Guan Meiyi to someone else, so everything that was shot before had to be thrown out and redone.
Zhang Heng was feeling very motivated, because that time he had picked the female lead himself. There were no hidden rules, no top-down decision, and no bribery. The decision was made purely based on acting skills.
Guan Meiyi, after the whole series of events, had completely disappeared from the public eye. Even the Ling Family was cut out. Madam Ling once tried to reach out to her, after all Guan Meiyi was a granddaughter that she had adored from childhood. The person who answered Madam Ling's call was a servant of the Guan Family, who made an excuse for Guan Meiyi and hung up on her.
It seemed that the Guans had no intention of having any relationship with the Lings anymore. Even Guan Meiyi was banned from having any contact with the Lings.
