“Tycoon! The alien has blinded our eyes!”

“Let me take a look at the model. F*ck! It’s the latest high-end version. I’m so jealous.” Zhang Zhe looked at Xia Yu enviously.

As a male university student of this era, who wouldn’t want to wake up with a top-notch gaming computer that allowed one to play all the games with maxed-up specs?

“Hey, why are there more below? Why did you buy so many?” Su Mei flipped through the box and found another one below the first one.

“My sister bought them for you. She said they’re a gift for you all.” This was the first time Xia Yu called Xia Wanyuan ‘sister’, but unfortunately, she could not hear it.

With that, Xia Yu went forward and opened the box. The four brand new computers were shining, but compared to the excitement and brightness in the eyes of the other three, it seemed a little dim in comparison.

“F*ck!”

The three of them were stunned by what Xia Yu’s sister had done. From their usual interactions, they had guessed that Xia Yu was a rich second-generation heir. But, they didn’t expect him to be so generous.

They went forward and touched the gaming computers that were said to have top-tier performance. Sure enough, expensive items felt different.

However, they were still students. Other than Yang Lin, the other two had a good family background. However, they had never received such a valuable gift.

Therefore, although the three of them were very excited, they rejected the gift.

“Thank you for your sister’s good intentions, but this is too expensive. We can’t afford to pay it back.” Although Yang Lin was poor, he did not have anything against the rich. He knew that he should not accept gifts from others for nothing.

[Trash Xia Wanyuan destroyed my goddess. When will such a useless person who is unprofessional and has no acting skills get out of the entertainment industry?!]

[Poor Prince Charming Qin Wu and Goddess Ruan Yingyu. They filmed the drama so conscientiously, yet this woman treated the hard work of others like this!]

[Get out of the entertainment industry, Xia Wanyuan! Since filming is done in only ten days, it’s not too late to change her out! Get someone else to play the role!]

[That’s right! Change her out! Get Xia Wanyuan out of the entertainment industry!]

The voices of those who had seriously collated the number of times the Heavenly Spirit Princess would appear and realized that she didn’t have many scenes were drowned in the sea of public opinion.

Gradually, passers-by, haters, fans of the original novel, swarmed into “The Long Ballad” production team under the influence of people with ill intentions.

One by one, they started to post about boycotting Xia Wanyuan on their latest Weibo post, asking for a replacement. The angry fans of the original novel even gathered together and drew red crosses on the photos. Everyone demanded a replacement actress on Weibo.

In just two hours, there were close to a hundred thousand comments.

The situation was getting more and more serious. Director Yang, who had just returned to the Beijing Film City, had just caught his breath when his subordinate reported the news. He was fuming with anger.

“Nonsense! They keep asking us to adhere to the original, and we did! And when we film according to the original, they complain about the role not having enough scenes! Ridiculous!”

Seeing that there was no response from the Weibo account of the cast and crew of “The Long Ballad”, the angry fans immediately pushed the topic “Xia Wanyuan Heavenly Spirit Princess” onto the hot search list.

The hottest post was a certain fan’s strong complaint and request for a change in casting. Seeing that the trending topic was getting more popular, the anger of the fans also increased.

At long last, the production crew of “The Long Ballad” finally responded with two responses to the outcry of the masses.

One was Xia Wanyuan’s role description.

The other was a fifteen-second video.

All the fans of the original novel who had angrily clicked onto the video went silent after watching it.
