Liu Shi Shi and Deng Wei Cast in Tencent Period Investigation Mystery Drama Kill My Sins

So this is basically a done deal unless something drastic happens, the pairing and the scheduling both work well. A new Tencent produced C-drama is kicking off pre-production called Kill My Sins (Chinese title Zhang Xin 掌心 Palm of the Hand). It’s a big S-level female lead top billed drama and will star Liu Shi Shi who goes into filming this after she wraps Fox Spirit Matchmaker the Zhu Ye chapter. The male lead role was reportedly being contested between Xu Kai and Deng Wei and has landed with the latter, with Deng Wei opening up his schedule for this after his currently filming drama Love of the Divine Tree finishes shooting. I’m assuming C-dramas filmed this year in 2024 will be earliest released in 2025 so put this on the far out calendar to expect.

  • Not really a fan of Deng Wei, but at least there is no real risk he'll steal the show as Liu Yuning did.

  • Deng Wei looks so plastic! Other than that, I'm indifferent to his acting. I just dislike his PR very much.

    • Your comment just caught me off guard. lol I have never heard of anyone said that he looks plastic. If anything, he looks ethereal in costumes. He looks good in real life as well but better in costume series. I get that he's not everyone cup of tea but he's not plastic looking.

      I'm not sure about this pairing even if I like both of them. Liu Shi Shi does look young but I think she will pair better with an older actor. I wish Liu Xue Yi would have more projects. He would be great here with LSS.

      • Deng Wei has weird-looking nose, lips, and jawline. They don't look natural to me, very distracting. LOL

      • @panda-eyes, I think LXY a better choice, both visually and acting-wise than Deng Wei. I honestly don't get the hype and obsession over DW after Lost You Forever. I watched 20-21 eps of LYF and dropped. DW had done absolutely nothing to me in those eps. The other two MLs had stronger presence than DW.

      • I think there are so many actors with cosmetic procedures done that it is beginning to look natural to some...

        I too think Deng Wei looks plastic...just as one of the C-actress I like, YangZi is definitely plastic looking.. The sharp jaw line, structured nose, super whitened skin, along with others... Such is the new norm... Industry standards must be met, I guess.

        But as long as their dramas are entertaining to watch, I will just close one eye... and enjoy the production.

    • I gotta agree with this. I watched him in TTEOM and he was so bland. He looks so good standing still, but even when he talks normally, his jaws and mouth looks weirdly distrating to me, I guess that's why he kept the expressions to a minimum. I actually felt frustrated for him as his Second Lead part has so much potential, and he looks so good in character.

      • It's because they cut so many of his scenes and make his character less interesting. He looks so good in Til The End of the Moon!

    • FU to all the WeiWei haters! He is naturally handsome! Plastic? Stop with the nonsense and making up things because he is getting more popular and better roles and endorsements than your idol! I am sick and tired of all the hates! I bet you that this drama will be a big hit because his diamonds are strongly behind him! The last laugh is from Deng Wei and his diamonds!

  • There's no confirmation yet but okay...
    Before Liu Shi Shi, Esther Yu was the one rumored to act in this one. Now that Liu Shi Shi is in, are we certain they will keep Deng Wei as the male lead??
    Either way I don't mind, I love them both therefore I'm looking forward to their collaboration. Working with such a seasoned actress can only help Deng Wei to hone his skills...

    • I believe before Esther, the original rumor was that yangmi, yang zi, or Liu Shi Shi was considered for this.

  • Never watch this guy before but I, personally, would love to see someone similar in age to act opposite LSS.

  • Lol. Crazed netizens will definitely get what they want. He won’t be overshadowing her, that’s for sure… which means….. he isn’t talented enough to carry a storyline, good or bad, so this production will likely be lacking.

    I’m always rooting for these actors, but the majority of these pretty boy Chinese actors stay pretty even when they’re supposed to be in character, SIGH.

    Hopefully I’m proven wrong.

    • You must be blind! Deng Wei is an amazing actor! He can definitely carry a drama on his own! He was second male lead in Lost You Forever and won most popular character! His acting outshined the Male Lead and I bet will outshine the male lead in Rosy Cloud! Not only he has the looks and height, his personality has won so many loyal fans over! Do your research! KOALA YOU need to write biography on Deng Wei and his achievements since his powerful performance from Lost You Forever! DENG WEI with only 5 millions fans has broke so many records! His career has just started, yet he has out beat so many who has been in the industry for so long. Sorry I felt like people need to know, seems like you readers are not educated about Deng Wei! There so much hate here! I apologize for sounding rude, but I am sick and tired of reading so many negative comments!

      • Omgah 🫢 lol. This was just my prediction, based off of recent and decades long trends in Chinese dramaland. Lol. This drama will likely be meh like so many others. I don’t think very highly of LSS’ acting anyways. I’m always looking to be pleasantly surprised though!

      • I never liked her, never hate her either. Just wish it was another actress. Zhao Lusi or Esther would be better fitted, in my opinion.

      • He can't buy views like he buys 18 million likes on Weibo then when he gets called out for it, cries that someone is trying to frame him.

        Guy is a joke.

  • Wow! Looks like Deng Wei is not well liked as much. His acting is good and he has the height; at least he doesn't do a poor job at acting but he hasn't had a role that can make you go wow, I'm a fan now! I always thought he looks older than his age though. I felt like AJTL was always a FL+ML story, but the production team had to come out saying it was a FL centric drama and top billed LSS because they were afraid of the backlash. Thankfully LSS only cared about the character and the success of AJTL as a whole so she was humble throughout the ordeal.

  • He can't act but he is excellent at playing outside games. The amount of stuff he has pulled just in the last few days...well if you have Weibo you know.

    Good luck LSS, you are going to need it.

    • You seems like a hater with an agenda to attack Deng Wei’s character so viciously. Has he done something to you personally? Is it because your bias isn’t getting enough attention or recognition anymore because of Deng Wei? Grow up and just enjoy the shows. It’s all for good fun. Deng Wei is a hard working and talented newcomer. Give him a break. He doesn’t need you to support him, but he certainly doesn’t deserve your hate.
