The video of Ah Nian and Xiang Liu reminds me of an interview with Dai Luwa on Bilibili where she talks about her first impressions of the 3 male leads. No access to link the video here, but just remove the spaces in the link below if anyone is interested in watching it.

[DLW talks about her experiences working with Yang Zi, and how much she learnt from her. She is particularly moved by Yang Zi's crying scenes, which makes her really sad as well]
2:26
Dai Luwa talks about the male leads' good looks
DLW: They are all very handsome!
[interviewer asks for specific details]
DLW: [Do you expect] me to really scrutinise them?
Interviewer: What is the first thing you noticed about Zhang Wanyi's good looks?
DLW: Hair. His wavy hair
Interviewer: What about Deng Wei?
DLW: He is really tall!
Interviewer: How about Tan Jianci?
DLW: Ohh... handsome.
Interviewer (laughs): Handsome all over?
DLW: Yes.
Interviewer: No first impressions? Did he make you shy?
DLW: Yes, because during the time [couldn't catch what she said here], they were sitting opposite me, so that was a direct view. But when Teacher Tan sat by my side, I totally dared not turn my head.
[If they finish early, Zhang Wanyi would often treat her and Yang Zi to meals]
[Both she and Tan Jianci often take naps during make-up sessions as they start work very early]
