Chapter 594 -594: Raising a Star (17)
Chuzheng leaned back in her chair with her legs crossed, embodying a poised and refined posture.
With her left hand resting on her right wrist, her fingertips grazing the pale skin, she said icily, “Aren’t you afraid your sugar daddy will get jealous?”
Feng Wang sat a bit far off, yet still in that boneless posture, seemingly melting into his seat.
His hoodie had slipped down halfway, revealing his messy hair.
Chuzheng’s peripheral vision fell on his hair.
It looked…
Kind of soft.
The fingers Chuzheng was using to stroke her wrist couldn’t help but itch.
She wanted to touch.
To see if it felt good…
“Little junior sister, are you the one who’s jealous?” Feng Wang’s gaze was fixed ahead as he hummed lightly, “You girls are so shallow, only caring about looks.”
Chuzheng asked coldly, “What do you have besides your looks?”
Feng Wang: “…”
Hit the nail on the head.
–
Chuzheng truly left Feng Wang stranded halfway.
She was a person of her word, a good person indeed.
[…] Haha, such a ruthless act could only be done by you.
Chuzheng had Liang Xi take her to Lan Ling’s place.
Lan Ling had her own studio and a team.
This content is taken from freёnovelkiss.com.
“How come you’re here?”
Lan Ling was somewhat surprised.
But she quickly got to the point, “Just in time, I have two scripts here, take them back and have a look.”
Lan Ling pulled out two scripts from a drawer and handed them to Chuzheng.
“They’re both good; I’ve already picked them out.”
Chuzheng flipped through the scripts and sat down in a chair across from her.
Lan Ling went on talking to herself, “You can’t just take any role now, if you’re going to take one, it should be something iconic, something that makes the audience remember you at once… I’ve seen your previous work, even though there were quite a few leading roles, they didn’t leave a very deep impression.”
Chuzheng listened in silence.
When Lan Ling finished, she finally spoke up, “I want to ask you a question.”
“Ask away.”
“Who is Feng Wang’s sugar daddy?”
The air instantly grew still.
Lan Ling put down the pen in her hand and looked up, “What do you want to know that for?”
“Just asking, is that not allowed?” Chuzheng replied, seemingly genuinely curious.
Lan Ling looked down again, continuing her examination of the documents, “Feng Wang doesn’t have a sugar daddy, he’s just bluffing.”
Chuzheng: “???”
Bluffing?
What kind of joke is this?!
A sugar daddy can be made up?
“Then how does he get his way in the entertainment industry?” By his looks?
With his good looks, would nobody take a fancy to him? Force him? Claim him?
Lan Ling chuckled, “I’d rather not discuss that with you, everyone has their means of survival, you have yours, and Feng Wang has his.”
Lan Ling stopped there, trusting Chuzheng to be smart.
Certain things shouldn’t be probed too deeply.
The fact that Feng Wang didn’t have a sugar daddy was something their whole team knew; it wasn’t a secret. Even if she didn’t say it, others would tell Chuzheng eventually.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have to scramble like mad whenever there was an incident.
Chuzheng got the hint and didn’t ask any further.
She left with the scripts, and along the way, she accepted Feng Wang’s friend request.
Feng Wang’s profile picture was of himself with an extremely smug smile, the ocean in the background, and the lighting skillfully highlighting the contour of the man’s face, so handsome it felt unreal.
The name was similar to his Weibo [Galaxy Supreme Handsome Prince Feng].
Chuzheng: “…”
Is Good Person Card suffering from some delusions or what!
[Galaxy Supreme Handsome Prince Feng: Little junior sister, weren’t you not going to accept my request?]
Feng Wang’s message popped up instantly.
[Chuzheng: Slipped my finger.]
[Galaxy Supreme Handsome Prince Feng: Ha, it’s not good to be dishonest, little junior sister. If you’ve fallen for my good looks, that’s what it is, I don’t mind.]
[Chuzheng: …]
Blacklist him.
WeChat kept dinging and donging with notifications.
Chuzheng didn’t look anymore, figuring that this loser bragging about having a sugar daddy wouldn’t have anything important to say.
–
But in just two hours, Chuzheng saw Feng Wang trending on Weibo.
#FengWangFangLi#
#FengWangSnatchesRoleAgain#
#FengWangGetOutOfEntertainment#
This time, he was trending with an artist named Fang Li.
Fang Li, the current hotshot pretty boy, became famous for his cute and adorable “little brother” persona.
Indeed, Fang Li did look pretty cute.
The kind that seems all dopey and cute…
Chuzheng found this descriptor slightly terrifying.
The person she saw at the clubhouse didn’t look like a dopey cute little brother at all.
Fang Li had just recently had a role snatched by Feng Wang, and now, in such a short time, it happened again…
Fang Li’s fans wished they could tear Feng Wang into pieces.
Only now did Chuzheng realize that the fans’ cries of Huan Huan… were for Fang Li.
Fans truly have a unique way of interpreting things.
Fortunately, the original owner of the account had quite normal fans; they all called her Little Cutie.
Audiences have sharp eyes.
[Miss, please get it straight; those are the fans of the original owner, which means they have nothing to do with you.] With that poker face of yours, would anyone call you Little Cutie?! More like Killer God.
Chuzheng: “…”
Feeling frustrated, Chuzheng blocked the King’s account.
The whole thing started because Fang Li was cornered by journalists outside a clubhouse, and he politely answered their questions.
Then, in not so many words, he brought up his audition.
Of course, he didn’t directly say that Feng Wang had stolen the role from him.
But media journalists can spin a whole novel from a single word.
So Fang Li was portrayed as a poor little thing bullied by Feng Wang.
The comments on Weibo were all sympathizing with Fang Li, with die-hard fans demanding Feng Wang leave the entertainment industry.
Feng Wang didn’t have many fans, and those he did were only into him for his looks.
They just focused on fawning over his appearance and didn’t bother defending Feng Wang’s honor.
At first, a few fans of his appearance did speak up for Feng Wang.
However, Feng Wang’s talent for offending people was just too strong, and his so-called fans couldn’t bear the backlash. Plus, Feng Wang had never shown any interest in having fans, so eventually, his fans just became passive observers.
Go ahead, curse.
As long as it doesn’t interrupt our adoration of his good looks.
Chuzheng spent money to get the trending topic removed.
After all, it was her Good Person Card at stake; how could she allow someone else to be trashed on her behalf?
Not only did Chuzheng get rid of the trending topic, but she also hired online trolls.
Lan Ling was completely baffled.
She hadn’t even made her move; how had it all been suppressed already?
Lan Ling, with some suspicion, called Feng Wang.
“Feng Wang, did you really find yourself a sugar daddy?”
“What do you mean ‘really’? I’ve always had one!”
“…” Lan Ling wished she could reach through the phone and beat him. “I’m talking seriously here; the trending topic on Weibo is suddenly gone, and there are trolls out there defending you.”
“Really?” Feng Wang seemed quite skeptical. “Could it be someone has their eye on me and is trying to woo me?”
“You didn’t get someone to do this?”
“I didn’t, no.”
“This is a bit strange… Why have you clashed with Fang Li again? Didn’t I tell you not to provoke him?” Lan Ling’s tone suddenly shifted.
Feng Wang replied in dissatisfaction, “I don’t provoke him.”
Lan Ling snorted coldly, “Then why did you snatch his role?”
Feng Wang declared righteously, “I needed it.”
Lan Ling became so angry she slammed her hand on the table, “What do you need? Did you take the role you snatched last time? Didn’t I have to clean up the mess for you? Do I owe you something?! ”
Feng Wang: “…”
Beep beep beep—
All Lan Ling could hear was the busy tone in her ear.
