Plagued by bad reviews, but the top actress!
Chapter 493 - Chapter 493 Chapter 493 The Face-Slapping Begins

Chapter 493: Chapter 493: The Face-Slapping Begins Chapter 493: Chapter 493: The Face-Slapping Begins Ruan Jiajia then forwarded his Weibo post.

Ruan Jiajia V: You deserve better.

Originally, Ruan Jiajia didn’t have much popularity, with just hundreds of thousands of Weibo followers.

But once this Weibo post came out, it attracted widespread attention and her follower count kept rising.

People started to shout out for this CP (couple pairing).

They felt that these two actually matched well, the man handsome, the woman beautiful, and both from the same martial arts school as senior brother and junior sister, with many collaborations between them.

They were a match of talented man and beautiful woman, full of understanding, a match made in heaven.

Finally, someone said that she and Li Yi were like the perfect couple, and Ruan Jiajia was overjoyed.

But now was definitely not the time to be together.

So, the two of them posted clarifications.

Ruan Jiajia V: Brother Yi and I are just ordinary friends; he takes good care of me usually.

Li Yi V: Jiajia is a good girl, and she’s my good junior sister.

It seemed like a clarification, but between the lines, there was a different implication that people read into.

Countless people teased them, calling for them to get together.

—-Li Yi and Jiajia really do make a great pair

—-Yeah, look at the way Jiajia calls him, ‘Brother Yi,’ how sweet

—-Li Yi, dump Hua Shan, and get together with Jiajia, you deserve better

Initially, Li Yi just wanted to see Hua Shan’s reputation ruined, but seeing the rise in popularity, his vanity began to inflate.

Maybe, he could ride this east wind and catch fire!

The two conspired and had someone dig up old grievances.

Originally, during the casting of “Allure,” Noble Consort Mei was played by Ruan Jiajia.

Later, she was replaced.

So, the netizens who had nothing better to do started imagining a melodramatic love triangle.

“Li Yi and Jiajia were from the same martial arts school as senior brother and junior sister, and they slowly developed feelings for each other through work, but Hua Shan fell for Li Yi and pursued him like mad, until he couldn’t take it anymore and got together with Hua Shan.

But, he couldn’t get Jiajia out of his mind.

Until they met again in ‘Allure,’ feelings between the two reignited secretly, Hua Shan got jealous, schemed to take Ruan Jiajia’s role, and kicked her out of the production.

Then, in order to win over Li Yi, she worked hard to lose weight, finally turning into a beauty.

After slimming down, Hua Shan’s heart changed, and she aimed for someone higher up.

She looked down on Li Yi, who had been through tough times with her, and dumped him.

And at that time, Ruan Jiajia came back to Li Yi’s side, accompanying him silently.”

This version of the love triangle completely glorified Li Yi and Ruan Jiajia, while Hua Shan became a hypocritical woman.

It pushed the popularity of Li Yi and Ruan Jiajia to new heights once again.

When Lu Huashan saw this, she almost threw up her breakfast.

So disgusting.

She closed Weibo, not wanting to see any more.

Let that pair of scoundrels direct and act out their own drama.

Just then, the company recognized their potential and quickly developed a series of operational strategies.

They had the two tied up in a CP to explode on the scene.

They shaped Li Yi into the prince of deep affection, and Ruan Jiajia as the nation’s pure and innocent first love.

They were sure to attract a huge wave of popularity!

With Hua Shan being so popular now, riding on her coattails, they could push Li Yi and Ruan Jiajia to the top–with one fell swoop!

The company’s decision made both Li Yi and Ruan Jiajia over the moon.

They could not only be together aboveboard but also become top-tier or even super A-list celebrities!

And Hua Shan could only serve as their stepping stone!

The matter fermented for an entire day and night, maintaining high heat.

The next day, Li Yi and Ruan Jiajia’s images had been completely beautified.

And Lu Huashan, she had been blackened to the point of being unrecognizable.

Her reputation was only slightly better than that of Xia Weibao when she faced universal condemnation online.

Just as Li Yi and Ruan Jiajia were feeling quite pleased with themselves, Hua Shan posted on Weibo.

She didn’t say anything, no words, just a video clip.
