“The bad news is that after replacing the actor, we have to reshoot a lot of scenes. Ahhh, shooting some scenes felt fresh and challenging the first time, but now it’s just so annoying! Especially for you, you have to shoot the beating scenes again.”

Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow, “Yes, thanks to her ‘blessing’.”

Wenyan: “I’ll sympathize with you for three seconds. But on the flip side, now that she’s gone, the efficiency on set is definitely going to skyrocket. So, in the grand scheme of things, this is still good news for us.”

“True. The overall benefits outweigh the drawbacks.”

As they were speaking, Wenyan’s attention was suddenly drawn to a person not far away.

“…Wanwan, didn’t you say Fu Yiqing quit yesterday afternoon? Look, who’s that?”

Jiang Wanwan looked in the direction Wenyan was pointing and immediately saw Fu Yiqing.

She was also puzzled, “She’s probably here to wrap things up; she can’t possibly come back. Now that we’ve finally got rid of her, even if she wants to back out, the director surely won’t give her the chance.”

“I think so too,” Wenyan nodded while furrowing her brows hard, “but look at her! She looks furious. Why do I feel like she’s heading our way?”

“Looks like it to me too,” Jiang Wanwan said with displeasure, narrowing her eyes, “But let her come. There’s nothing to be afraid of; I’m still in front of you.”

“…What exactly does she want? Is she coming for you or for me?”

“Either way, she’s going to pay a price.”

In the midst of their conversation, an enraged Fu Yiqing had already approached Wenyan and Jiang Wanwan’s table.

Without a word, she grabbed a bottle of opened drink from the table.

In the blink of an eye, Wenyan snatched up a prop pot lid from behind, and Jiang Wanwan also picked up the bowl of clean pork rib and kelp soup at her hand.

At that moment, the drink in Fu Yiqing’s hand shot towards Wenyan’s face but was deflected by the pot lid she had thrust out.

And the flat pot lid was hurtling straight for Fu Yiqing.

At the same time, the soup in Jiang Wanwan’s hand was raised over Fu Yiqing’s head.

When all the ‘props’ were in place, the juice rebounded by the pot lid splattered back on Fu Yiqing’s face, and the soup from Jiang Wanwan’s bowl also drenched Fu Yiqing’s head.

“Ah!!” Fu Yiqing couldn’t help but scream uncontrollably, “You’re all crazy!”

Everyone: “…” It seems you’re the one who’s crazy.

Wenyan: “Could you stop throwing a fit? It’s really frightening to the sane people watching.”

“Wenyan!!” Fu Yiqing, frantically wiping her face, was beside herself, “Was it you who instigated Qin Yulong to leave me? What’s the relationship between you two, huh? Tell me clearly right here, right now, immediately!”

“…I need you to leave right now, immediately! You’re scaring me.”

“Stop feeding me that nonsense! You call her back this instant, right now!”

“…” Wenyan was speechless, “You’re not some princess to be throwing a tantrum. Don’t you have any self-awareness of why she left you? It was all your doing; you’ve changed.”

“I forced her? I changed? Is that what she told you? Heh, she even told you these things; your relationship must be really ‘special.’ Two nights ago, she entered your room, didn’t she? You two really have no shame.”

“…” Damn! Wenyan was at a loss for words.

This wasn’t something Qin Yulong had told her; on the day of their argument, the entire episode had been broadcast live over the walkie-talkie.

“I don’t need to explain my relationship with Qin Yulong to you because your contract is already terminated. Even if it wasn’t, you have no right to interfere with her personal life, do you? Please leave, or I’ll call security. You wouldn’t want to be thrown out by security and lose face, would you?”

Fu Yiqing was indeed being unreasonable, a fact known to everyone present, including her own assistant.

Although her assistant usually didn’t dare to go against her wishes, she had no choice but to firmly step forward and pull Fu Yiqing away.

“Yiqing, let’s hurry and leave, be careful before someone takes photos and uploads them online, it will become troublesome then.”

At this point, Fu Yiqing was acting like someone with nothing left to lose; she wasn’t afraid of gossip anymore. However, she absolutely couldn’t let herself be exposed online in her current state.

In the end, the incident at the filming set concluded with Fu Yiqing leaving in a sorry state.

However, this was just the beginning of Fu Yiqing’s rampage.

The trending topic of ‘Wenyan and Fu Yiqing Coming Out’ hadn’t even cooled down yet,
when suddenly a flood of negative information about the two of them burst onto the internet.

All of it was black material concerning their ‘chaotic private lives.’
For a while, several newly registered accounts even came forward to claim that Wenyan ‘slept with fans’
and ‘they’ were all female fans; ‘they’ also released a large number of chat conversations and screenshots.

There were even videos corroborating their claims, but all these videos were faceless.

When the negative information exploded online, Wenyan was still shooting; she knew nothing about it.

But her fans had already debunked it as fake.

Because the so-called evidence was obviously fake, very fake; anyone could tell that the text screenshots and videos were Photoshopped just by looking at them with their toes.

But, some who didn’t understand Photoshop and those who already disliked Wenyan chose to believe these rumors, the latter even spreading them aggressively.

The situation on Qin Yulong’s side wasn’t much better; she was accused of using her position to ‘select concubines’ while in X Country,
harassing many girls and even high school students during her tenure as a top agent.

The smear tactics used against Yulong were similar to those against Wenyan, clearly coming from the same person.

What differed was that the ‘evidence’ provided against Yulong was a mix of truth and falsehood.

Clearly, the person providing ‘evidence’ must have had a certain understanding or contact with Qin Yulong; otherwise, they wouldn’t have so much material on her.

By the time Wenyan learned about this, the issue had already blown up on the internet.

The idol whose house collapsed earlier was already worried about how to manage public relations. Now with the ‘scandals’ involving Wenyan and Qin Yulong emerging, they were eager to ‘pour fuel on the fire’ behind the scenes.

–
Taking advantage of a break, Wenyan immediately dialed Qin Yulong’s number.

Before this, Wenyan had also tried calling Yulong, but never managed to reach her.

Today was no exception; her calls remained unanswered just like before.

Jiang Wanwan saw that Wenyan had been making calls since she finished her scene and handed her a cup of warm water.

“Have some water to soothe your throat. Do you think Yulong might have changed her phone number?”

Wenyan gulped down the entire cup of water in one go, “I don’t know either, but I’d asked her before if she would continue using this number. She was affirmative and even said she would inform me if she changed numbers. If she weren’t using it, the number would be out of service or turned off, but every time I call, it rings but no one answers.”

Jiang Wanwan frowned slightly, “If she intentionally wants to cut off contact with everyone here, she probably wouldn’t see the messages online either. And to step back ten thousand steps, if she doesn’t intend to continue in this circle, these issues don’t really affect her that much. After all, she’s not here anymore, and with her current fame, such things wouldn’t make it to international websites. So, you’re the one suffering the most out of this.”
