With a deeper understanding of the character, Zhang Ruoyun's performance in “Joy of Life Season 2” is expected to be even more remarkable.
Two very popular actresses, Li Qin, and Song Yi, are also returning for the second season. Li Qin, who had not previously confirmed her participation, has also made a highly anticipated return as Lin Wan'er. Her character will have more screen time and will become Fan Xian's most powerful supporter.
Song Yi seems to have resolved her scheduling conflicts and will continue to play Fan Ruoruo, becoming a major support for her brother Fan Xian's career.
Chen Daoming, who was previously rumored to have resigned, will also continue to play Emperor of Qing. The stills still have the same spontaneous and unrestrained look.

Supporting actors such as Xin Zhilei, Liu Duanduan, Zhang Haowei, and Tong Mengshi will also return, ensuring the completeness of the cast and making the series more competitive.
However, it remains a mystery who will play the role of Yan Bingyun in the second season of “Joy of Life” after Xiao Zhan's departure.
Directed by Sun Hao and written by Wang Juan and Mao Ni, “Joy of Life Season 2” will continue to explore Fan Xian's growth and his return to Southern Qing.

These mysteries will be revealed one by one in the second season.
Moreover, based on the project book and the original work, “Joy of Life Season 2” will introduce new characters and present more exciting plot twists, mainly focusing on the court of Southern Qing. After Fan Xian successfully marries Lin Wan'er and takes over the inner treasury, various hidden forces emerge.
The return of the princess, the appearance of the general who wields military power, the struggle between the crown prince and the second prince, and the assassination of the emperor are all exciting plot points that will be presented in the second season.
It can be said that “Joy of Life Season 2” continues many of the plot settings of the first season, while also having a brand new plot system. Characters such as Fan Xian, Fan Ruoruo, Fan Sizhe, and Lin Wan'er will all experience growth and changes, and there will be even more exciting stories in “Joy of Life Season 2”.
