Chapter 243: Chapter 244 Dispute_1 Chapter 243: Chapter 244 Dispute_1 “Where’s the dark queen we were promised? Looking forward to seeing Qinqin transformed!”

Reading these comments, Qiao Xiaren swiped elegantly, a smirk curling at the corners of her lips. Seemed a tad late, it was time to retire for the night.

Although she had anticipated that the character of the Demon Immortal would give Qiao Xiaren a boost in popularity, she hadn’t expected the result to exceed predictions. Qiao Xiaren’s acting style was subtle and refreshing, even capable of drawing out emotions from viewers, renewing their favorable impression of her.

The leading lady Fang Qianping, played by Shen Ruyin, naturally also received much attention. However, compared to Qiao Xiaren, Shen Ruyin attracted more criticism – partly due to her recent fame, which had led her to have a large following of both ardent fans and detractors. Qiao Xiaren’s haters were still only budding, mostly from passersby, but Shen Ruyin already had a significant online “hater-specific group”.

“Why does Shen Ruyin only have one expression when acting? Is she able to do anything else aside from blinking and pouting? It’s so awkward to watch. And that worried look at the end, it was way too exaggerated!”

“Hehe, isn’t the one upstairs one of Qiao Xiaren’s fans? Is it interesting to boost your idol by trashing others?”

“Are you blind, the one upstairs? Have I compared Shen Ruyin with anyone from start to finish? All I did was speak the truth, yet you hastily jumped out to defend other celebrities against me. Feeling guilty?[smile].”

“Anyone can see that Qiao Xiaren is clearly trying to climb up the ladder at Ruyin’s expense, crafty bitch!”

“Exactly, she’s just a supporting actress, she should just act out her role properly, why is she trying to steal the limelight from the lead actress?”

“She’s overreaching herself. Does she think she can compete with our Ruyin? We, Ruyin fans, shouldn’t pay attention to these kinds of people. Our Ruyin’s popularity doesn’t need to be leached off by her, Qiao Xiaren!”

Seeing these comments, Qiao Xiaren was entirely unfazed. What did this hate mean to her? The more famous she became, the more haters she’d have.

Shen Ruyin was already back home at this point, naturally also following the current affairs and gossip, her eyes darkened. Thank God Qiao Xiaren didn’t get as many scenes as her in the drama; otherwise, Shen Ruyin would really be reduced to just a side character in ‘Demon Slayer’.

This imp Xiaren was really an anomaly. Who has ever managed to dodge misfortune after encountering her? But ever since this imp entered the picture, she started experiencing one misfortune after another.

Shen Ruyin’s first instinct was that Qiao Xiaren carried extreme bad luck around her.

Speaking of which, this was the first person who dared to confront her directly. How on earth did such an oblivious person survive in the entertainment industry?

“Hello?” From across the ocean came Vince’s voice over the phone, “dear Ruyin?”

“Hello, Vince. How are things in France?” Shen Ruyin’s voice was soft, “I heard there seems to be some issue in your family? Has it been dealt with? If there’s anything I can help with, don’t hesitate to ask.”

“All sorted, dear, thank you for your concern.” Vince replied, “I was really angry when I heard about what happened last time. It’s disappointing that there are such people in the fashion and design industry. Your country S should establish regulations against plagiarism. From now on, the name Qiao Xiaren is on my blacklist. Anywhere I’ll be present, I absolutely won’t allow her to show her face.”

In fact, Vince had never met Qiao Xiaren. It was just that he had heard Shen Ruyin discuss about how her gala dress got plagiarized last time, and it made his blood boil.

To him, someone suspected of plagiarism had no right to be associated with fashion.

“Thank you, Vince.” Shen Ruyin sounded exceptionally sincere, “As long as you’re on my side, there’s nothing I need to fear.”
