With Li Zhou's call of "Cut," Musheng's gaze instantly returned to normal, and her expression remained that nonchalant yet playful smile as the oppressive aura that left people breathless dissipated, as if what had just happened was merely an illusion.
However, Liu Zhi's face was still ashen and hadn't yet returned to normal. Usually, if a handsome man showed such a frightened expression, countless fans would be distressed, but when it involved Musheng, no one seemed capable of blaming her.
Not for any reason other than the fear that, by blaming her, they would truly be kneeling down and begging the emperor for mercy.
Among the crowd, there will always be different opinions; perhaps Musheng wasn't universally beloved like China RMB, unable to make everyone fall for her. Liao Xia secretly hid behind a group of crew members, capturing Liu Zhi's pale face on film, with Musheng's silhouette conveniently framed in the background.
