Today was Bai Qingquan's death scene. The director, assistant director, and makeup artists all came over to take his exit shot. He was surrounded by flowers and look at Shen Jintai through the crowd. He wanted to take a picture with Shen Jintai and post it on Weibo. He may have entered the play too deeply and now he developed deep affection for Shen Jintai.

Mrs. Yan was sobbing with Shen Jintai in her arms. Her cries managed to finally pull Shen Jintai away from his uncomfortable emotions.

Shen Jintai smiled and patted Mrs. Yan on the back and said: "Auntie, it's all just acting. Li Xu is miserable, but I'm not."

Mrs. Yan sobbed and said: "I just can't watch you cry."

Yan Qiuchi handed a tissue over. Shen Jintai took it in his hand and wiped the tears from Mrs. Yan's eyes.

Mrs. Yan resumed her normal demeanor and became a little embarrassed. She took the tissue and wiped her face and said in a heavy nasally voice: "You acted so well. When this episode is broadcast, I know it'll make me cry all over again."

"Jintai, let's cut the cake!" The assistant director called him.

Mrs. Yan said: "Go and celebrate with the crew first. Don't eat too much. I also brought a cake that I made myself."

Shen Jintai smiled, looked at Yan Qiuchi again, and then ran to the crew.

Bai Qingquan called: "Jintai!"

Shen Jintai turned his head to look and saw Bai Qingquan beckoning him, so he ran over: "Congratulations, it's finally over!"

"Thanks. I haven't acted enough yet." As he said this, Bai Qingquan wrapped his arms around Shen Jintai's shoulders and Shen Jintai did the same to his. Bai Qingquan said to the photographer: "Can you take a good picture. It's the first time us two as rival have taken such a close photo. Maybe it'll catch fire."

Everyone around laughed.

After the two of them took the photo, Shen Jintai let go of his hand and said: "Don't leave just yet. You still have to eat some of my cake later."

Zheng Siqi also came to take a photo with Bai Qingquan.

Shen Jintai birthday celebration commenced. The scene became chaotic and rowdy. The director personally lit the candle for him and held it in front of him. Producer Zhang put on a birthday crown on Shen Jintai's head and said: "Make a wish."

Due to the popularity of <The East Palace is Coming>, the highlights of the drama were filmed alongside the drama and was named <The East Palace Chronicles>. It was broadcasted on the official website. As long as it was on set, even when they weren't filming scenes, the cameras remained turned on to record all related events. Shen Jintai wished: "Then I wish <The East Palace is Coming> will be watched for a long time and break the ratings again!"

The crew all applauded, and some laughed and shouted: "No matter how high we are, we will definitely break 4 on both stations!"

"More than breaking 4, it's best to break 6 in the end." Shen Jintai's rhetoric could be seen as he had completely recovered from the emotions of filming.

He closed his eyes with a smile and made his wish. Only a few candles were blown out when he blew. Zheng Siqi and Bai Qingquan smiled and leaned in to help him blow his remaining lit candles. With a click, the scene was captured by another photographer.

The three heads looked similar. They were all handsome young men in their twenties. Because the flash was turned on, the surrounding was dark and only the three of them with shining bright faces appeared clearly in the picture. This photo became a classic set of photos of <The East Palace is Coming> and the origin of <The East Palace Three Masters>... but this was a later story to tell.
