Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After that, Yun Liu and Shi Xiu both dropped out of the show ‘Embracing Life.’
Both of their fans quarreled about what had happened in the show, and Yun Liu was losing a lot of fans. There were loads of comments about her online.
[I truly didn’t expect her to pull such tricks behind people’s backs. And here I thought she was pure and innocent!]
[Girls, keep this in mind! You can act gentle and delicate, but you can’t have evil intentions!]
[Now that I think of it, Ding Pei was pretty brazen before she got arrested. I think Yun Liu is the one behind Ding Pei, supporting everything she did. Ding Pei never did such things when managing other artistes before.]
[Yun Liu’s such a schemer. She’s always using doublespeak, constantly insinuating things about others and stirring up conflict. She’s such a green tea!]
There were also diehard fans who defended Yun Liu.
[They manipulated Yun Liu into saying those things! The entire show is paid off! All the participants are bribed to speak for a certain princess!]
[Yun Liu is a lucky and talented girl. Why should she bother associating with this group of people? Why should she be bullied by them? She should ignore them and focus on her career. She can be great, even on her own!]
[I’ll always love you, Yun Liu. I hope everything goes well for you. I look forward to your promising future!]
Shi Xiu’s popularity was also affected as Yun Liu’s fans rushed to Shi Xiu’s social media account to scold her.
[You think you’re so special just because you’re rich! If you asked me, you’re
the biggest conspirator. You spent so much effort to target our Yun Liu. How malicious!]
[You’re just jealous that our Yun Liu is prettier and more popular than you.
You’re as vicious as a viper!]
[You have money, so what? Why don’t you try competing with Yun Liu in acting instead? Hah, I doubt you have the guts to do so. How dare you be so cocky when you’ve only produced one movie!]
[You’ll go down in flames! I’ll curse you every day!]
Fang Xi and Shi Xiu read each and every one of these online comments seriously. Yun Nan felt speechless as she looked at the two huddled together before the computer.
“Is this the result you wanted?” Yun Nan demanded.
Fang Xi smiled carelessly and said to Shi Xiu, “Fame is fame, good or bad! Congratulations, Shi Xiu! You’re now famous!”
Shi Xiu sighed, “So it’s that simple to become famous!”
Yun Nan facepalmed. Shi Xiu pounced on Yun Nan, hugged her shoulders, and reassured her. “Don’t worrv. Yun Nan. I’ll handle it.”
“How do you plan to handle this?” Yun Nan asked. She then looked at Fang Xi. “Fang Xi, you’re Shi Xiu’s manager now, so please take good care of her! Keep her on a leash! Make sure she behaves herself, okay?”
Fang Xi raised her hands in surrender. “Okay, okay, I got it. Aren’t you a little young to be so naggy? How about we ALL do our jobs? Please hurry up with your script, Yun Nan! Oh, and one more thing—Xiang Yang wants to use a few of your paintings for her exhibition. I agreed on your behalf.”
Yun Nan smiled wryly. “Go ahead and take whatever you want. But first, you gotta deal with this brat’s mess.” So saying, Yun Nan pushed Shi Xiu—who was sticking to her like gum to a shoe—away.
Fang Xi got up, stretched, and said, “Okay, no problem. Just wait for my good news. I’ll head back and rest for a while.’
Shi Xiu posted this on her social media account: “Thank you all for your concern for me. About your verbal abuse, I’m sorry, but I have selective blindness and can’t see them. Actually, I really want to ask everyone a question: When those rumors about me were running rampant, did any of you stop to think if those rumors were fake? If you did, why didn’t I see anyone post anything to comfort me back then? If you didn’t, then what right do you have to judge whether I’m scheming or not when you yourselves have malicious intentions?”
“Back then, my studio clarified things for me, my brother spoke up for me, and we even hired a professional team of lawyers, and we still couldn’t suppress those rumors. You all would rather believe those rumors than my innocence, so I had no choice but to prove it myself.”
“Now that I’ve proven myself innocent, you guys are guilty. You got your face slapped hard, and now you’re complaining I was too heavy-handed? Well, I’m glad to hear that. It has always been my habit to repay my grudges. I don’t hold grudges because I avenge them on the spot. I hope you all learn a lesson from this and think more before you believe in rumors and casually become people’s fans in the future!”
Shi Xiu had sharply and indiscriminately retorted the people who left comments on her social media account. And then..
[Wow, this young lady is so cool and dashing! I love it!]
[She’s a real character! ‘I avenge my grudges on the spot.’ She personally went in and tore them a new one! That was amazing! I like her!]
[Her personality is so different from her character in the movie! Her acting skills are great since she could act out her character so convincingly! I can’t believe she never learned acting before she took on the role. It’s incredible!]
[This girl has talent. That statement she posted is superb! I’d fall in love with her just for that alone.]
[She’s the first celebrity I’ve seen who told her fans to think more. She’s so sensible and clear-headed! She’s truly a breath of fresh air!]
Yun Liu fell seriously ill after returning from the show, and Gu Wei was worried sick.
Yun Zhang had been holding back his anger at Yun Liu for a while now, and after watching the live broadcast of ‘Embracing Life’ and seeing Yun Liu from a third-person perspective, he felt even more disappointed in her.
He then had a serious talk with Tan Ning, and Tan Ning promised him she would do her job responsibly and correct Yun Liu’s attitude..
