While the dinner party was ongoing, the second episode of "Who's the Real Actor" was also being aired.
The show's favoritism towards Qingyue was blatantly obvious. Throughout the entire episode, even the scenes featuring Ming Emperor Lu Ye couldn't compete with the amount of screen time Qingyue received. Yet, most viewers didn't notice this issue.
Qingyue's performance wasn't a complete flop—if you're really intent on praising him, there were still a few points worth mentioning.
Before the episode even finished airing, the capital behind Qingyue had already shelled out to buy him a trending topic spot.
