Liping’s laughter was the key to defrosting the icy Rui En as the two collaborate for the first time on MediaCorp’s latest drama
Known as the Ice Princess of Caldecott, one would hardly expect Rui En to hit off well with anyone.
However, it seems that Chen Liping has managed to melt the Ice Queen’s heart.
At the press conference for Unriddle, Liping proudly declared that Rui En is no longer a ‘princess’, but an Ice Queen.
“However, we are the ‘hottest’ partners so the ice has melted already!” joked Liping.
Liping was right about the melting ice: the icy Rui En appeared cheery throughout the press conference and even shared anecdotes.
“She has a really infectious laughter and she goes out of breath when she laughs, which in turn makes me laugh as well,” said Rui En.
In Unriddle, the two of them take on leading roles as police investigators working as a team to solve crimes. Liping’s role was originally slated to be played by Zoe Tay; however, she had to back out when she got pregnant with her third child.
Judging from their interactions on the press conference and in the interview with xinmsn,
Liping and Rui En appeared to have gotten on pretty well despite this being their first collaboration.
Contrary to her usually-reserved demeanour, the 29-year-old Rui En frequently cracked jokes and was all praises for Liping.
“Liping took great care of me since the first day; she is the most generous artiste I’ve ever met!”
Rui En went on to explain that Liping had let her personal assistant help out Rui En unconditionally.
Liping also complimented Rui En on her acting.
“I thought that she was a good actress when I saw her other works; after working with her, I realize she is better than I thought!”
While Rui En’s With You received positive ratings, Liping’s Your Hand in Mine did not go well with audience.
Both of them explained that audience response is not within their control and they can only do their own best.
“As performers we just concentrate on doing our scenes and doing our own job well. That’s all we can do.”
