Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Fu Ying, don’t even think about using this trick to deceive Rao Rao again. If you send food to my house, it’ll only be eaten by me.” Mo Yuan smiled proudly and returned home.
Fu Ying watched as Mo Yuan walked into the house and slammed the door.
He wished he could see Mo Rao, but Mo Rao didn’t appear.
Fu Ying had heard from Gu Hai that Mo Rao liked to eat shumai, and he remembered it. Although he worked overtime late last night, he still stayed up late to make shumai for Mo Rao.
In the end, Mo Yuan ate all the shumai.
With Mo Yuan’s warning, Mo Rao’s life was peaceful for a few more days.
It was as if Fu Ying had disappeared from her life. Mo Rao would sometimes wonder why Fu Ying had no movements at all, but then she quickly stopped thinking about him.
If she kept thinking about him, she would lose.
It was getting closer and closer to the start of Jia Li’s new movie, ‘Butterfly Fragrance’. Jia Li was quite famous in the country. Previously, many people already knew that Jia Li was going to film a movie in the country. Now, in order to promote the movie, someone revealed that Mo Rao was going to act in this movie.
Mo Rao only realized that this news had been leaked after her name was associated with ‘Butterfly Fragrance’.
The netizens discussed this news feverishly. Mo Rao had just returned to the country and had only acted in a low-budget movie, but now, she could actually work with a big director.
In the beginning, most people were still on Mo Rao’s side. During this period of time, Mo Rao’s positive news far exceeded negative news. She still attracted many fans until a popular celebrity called Lin Xia posted on her alternate account.
“Sigh, having a powerful background is impressive. Butterflies also like domestic flowers sprayed with perfume.”
With ‘Butterfly Fragrance’ and Mo Rao on the trending searches, Lin Xia’s fans immediately started targeting Mo Rao.
“Did someone snatch Xiaxia’s role?! I heard that Xiaxia should be the female lead in ‘Butterfly Fragrance’!”
“Guess what I found?! ‘Butterfly Fragrance’ was actually sponsored by Fu Ying! I was wondering why Mo Rao became the female lead of such a good movie! So she has a backer!”
“Isn’t snatching the role too much?! Mo Rao is just a newbie in the country. No matter what, Lin Xia is Mo Rao’s senior and is more famous than her!”
…
Lin Xia understood how to manipulate public opinion. She randomly chose a fan’s comment that was defending her and replied, “It’s obvious.”
This reply caused an uproar among the netizens again.
Mo Rao naturally saw Lin Xia’s Weibo post. She hadn’t interacted with Lin Xia before, so why did Lin Xia send out a Weibo post to throw shade at her?
After Chen Zheng saw the comment online, he immediately called Mo Rao. “Mo Rao, you should have seen the news, right? Lin Xia’s Weibo post was throwing shade at you.”
“I saw it.” Mo Rao was nestled on the sofa with the script for ‘Butterfly Fragrance’ in front of her. “I’ve never heard Director Jia Li say that Lin Xia wanted to take on this movie. He told me that he thought of looking for me right from the beginning.”
“I believe you. Lin Xia must be taking the opportunity to play the pity card. You’ve been very popular recently, so Lin Xia is probably afraid that you’ll threaten her position. Don’t be anxious. I’ll think of a way to deal with it.” Chen Zheng comforted.
With Chen Zheng and Mo Yuan around, Mo Rao was naturally relieved. However, Mo Rao felt that even if she did public relations, many people would still think that she had a backer.
The public discussion could be suppressed, but the doubts of these netizens couldn’t.
“Chen Zheng, I’ve thought about it already. Since everyone wants fairness, I’ll talk to Director Jia Li and get him to publicly recruit actors for the audition. At that time, the audition video can also be made public. This way, the netizens won’t have anything to say.” Mo Rao told Chen Zheng her thoughts.
Hearing this, Chen Zheng hesitated.
It had to be known that Jia Li’s movie was highly sought-after in the industry. Many actresses would definitely fight for this role.
If they openly recruited actors, the chances of Mo Rao winning this role would be greatly reduced.
