Bathe and go to bed, Ye Feimo wants to be a beast again but Ruan Ning refuses, "Sleep, sleep."

"I want it."

"No can do, it's past two in the morning, you should quickly sleep. Besides, I'm not feeling well and still have some pain. Don't touch me for a few days," Ruan Ning says. Who let him be such an animal to hurt her.

...

Ye Feimo is very unhappy but obeys and holds Ruan Ning properly as they sleep.

The preview screening takes place at the MBS cinema under Anning's management. The lead actors, Ruan Ning and Zhou Chengge attend, inviting many internal staff members, some film fans, numerous media people, and movie critics to watch first.

There are not many viewers in the cinema, about a hundred people all together. Thirty film fan entry tickets were grabbed from the official website, while other media personnel, critics, and internal employees were arranged by the planning side and marketing department.

Ye Feimo and Tang Shuwen both came along. Accompanying Tang Shuwen was a woman, who is very beautiful, looks delicate, wears a white dress, and is charming, making one unable to bear to hurt her or leave her alone. Ruan Ning thinks that must be Zhao Yuning, Gu Rui's cousin, the person Tang Shuwen likes. Then what about Snow Sister

No wonder Snow Sister said she wouldn't come to the preview screening, because she knows Tang Shuwen will bring Zhao Yuning along, so she chooses not to attend.

Cai Xiaojing notices her unhappiness and asks worriedly, "What's wrong"

Ruan Ning shakes her head, "Nothing."

People are emotional beings. She didn't know Zhao Yuning well, but she felt very sorry for Chen Xueru's experiences. Raising a child on her own was already difficult enough, and after going through such painful events in the past, her career also experienced ups and downs. Yet, for her child’s sake, she persevered with remarkable strength—what an admirable woman! She is strong-willed, resolute, tough yet gentle, truly heart-rending.

In her warm-hearted wishes, Tang Shuwen could fall in love with Chen Xueru and their family could reunite. Otherwise, it would be a great hurt to the child.

Seeing Zhao Yuning smiling brightly next to Tang Shuwen while thinking about Chen Xueru's frail appearance and suffering, she felt somewhat distressed.

The warm-hearted individual sat behind a row of distinctive film critics whose expectations for this movie were very high after the interviews. Her spirits only lifted when the movie started playing.

This was her first time watching the movie in which she starred.

And it was also her first time seeing the final editing results from Lin Ning.

The entire 115-minute film flowed seamlessly, filled with suspense and climax. The effects of the final edits by Lin Ning were excellent: one major climax, three minor climaxes, two sections of calm scenes, maintaining this tone until the last thirty minutes.

The last thirty minutes were the apex of the entire movie, featuring intimate scenes between the male and female leads that were also quite bold. They depicted their farewells and passionate encounters with body language in a vivid manner.

The male lead was sent to war while the female lead was confined by the emperor within the palace walls, waiting anxiously for him. In order to possess her, the emperor deceived her into believing that her beloved had died on the battlefield, causing her immense sorrow and heartbreak. The emperor then bestowed upon her the title of concubine, preparing to hold a grand wedding ceremony.

Wearing blood-red bridal attire, she leaped off the city tower for love—choosing destruction rather than compromise.

Hearing that his beloved was going to marry the emperor, the victorious male lead raced back on horseback in haste but only witnessed her farewell leap from the city tower...

The film concludes with the male lead rebelling against tyranny, toppling it to ascend to the throne. The final scene is of him standing alone in the sunset...

Zhou Chengge and Warming portrayed this tragic yet beautiful love story flawlessly, tugging at heartstrings throughout. The film features scenes of romantic beauty as well as grandiose battles, intricate palace intrigue between brothers...

Especially towards the end, the male lead stands in the setting sun with his shadow stretching long and lonely, while the female lead dances gracefully on screen.

This treatment of yin and yang longing seems to leave a lingering impression on viewers but also amplifies the tragic tone of the film.

Warming watched the entire film almost holding her breath, her eyes slightly red from being moved. Speaking objectively, this film is just too good; from plot, visuals to actor performances, it's nearly flawless.

"It's so touching..." one critic remarked, "No movie in a long while has been this heart-wrenching, definitely worth the watch!"

“Ling Ning really pulled off such work, truly incredible.”

...

This film is sure to become popular.

...

The critics behind Warming began discussing, and the journalists in front of her also started a lively discussion. The atmosphere was quite different from yesterday's screening of "The Crownless King," which had been filled with laughter; this film, on the other hand, moved people to tears.

The Uncrowned King has ended, leaving the audience feeling satisfied but also wanting more. However, The Beauty That Moves a City leaves one in awe, with its stunningly beautiful and yet imperfect charm.

Cai Xiaojing緊緊地抓著溫暖的手，“Warmth, we've succeeded, we've succeeded.”

Looking at the reaction on site, Cai Xiaojing could predict that there would be a lot of great film reviews online and in newspapers and magazines tomorrow. This movie is definitely going to have the best word-of-mouth among this year's New Year films.

A New Year film being a tragic one doesn't meet audience expectations, but perhaps it won’t perform as well at the box office as The Uncrowned King did. However, it will certainly be the most critically acclaimed movie. Right now, what Warmth needs is good word-of-mouth.

Box office success would just add to her achievements.

She has successfully shown everyone her talent and potential, which is more important than anything else.

This debut work will definitely create a huge splash.

Warmth was very happy. Besides it being a good piece of work, she also felt quite surprised that Chen Xueru's role had been greatly expanded. Initially in Lin Ning’s script, Chen Xueru only had some fragmented scenes and just one or two shots where the main character was featured prominently. However, after watching the film, it was clear that Lin Ning had re-edited the footage; initially, Chen Xueru's part was shot somewhere around seventh to eighth place, but after editing, her role carried almost as much weight as the male lead’s and she didn't fall short of Warmth's star power at all.

The Beauty That Moves a City is essentially a female lead film. Having two women carry the entire movie is quite normal. It was clear that Lin Ning favored both of them, Cai Xiaojing had a hunch this would be Chen Xueru’s comeback piece.

Moreover, yesterday while drinking tea with an agent, she casually mentioned that Chen Xueru's ban had been lifted and there might be a change in her agency. In the future, it could be another of An Ning's top agents, Hu Lisha, who takes care of her.ng Shuwen asked in disbelief.Director Lin answered matter-of-factly, "Of course!"Anning and Hua Yun's relationship is like water and fire; it’s common for them to have showdowns.The producers shook th...
