Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 995 - 984: Best Actor

No one can describe the feeling at that moment when they saw Young Master Yan Xin, only that it felt like an Immortal dressed in white had taken residence in their heart, unwilling to look away.

However, the editing was frustrating. Just when the Immortal was about to speak, the episode ended. To watch more, they’d have to wait until tomorrow.

As a result, the internet exploded, and under the TV station’s official blog were malicious curses toward the station and the editor.

"Still can’t believe that’s all? My Young Master Yan Xin didn’t even speak!"

"Would editing two more minutes kill them? Seriously?"

"Where’s my knife? I need my knife!"

"I’m really about to cry; Young Master Yan Xin is even more ethereal than I imagined! What kind of godly actor is Ye Qiu?"

"Just a passerby, but I really admire Ye Qiu’s acting. Remember when he played the brother in ’Murder Case’? I always thought he was genuinely gloomy. Yet, in ’Emperor Jiang,’ he seemed like a completely different person."

"A true beacon of young actors! He’s stunning in the drama!"

"Can I say I was just as stunned as Little Emperor Jiang?"

"I’d bet the young actor was dazed at the time. I admit the young actor is good, but some traces can still be seen, though that moment of genuine surprise in his eyes, I refuse to believe was acting."

"I believe it! My mom said my expression was exactly like Little Emperor Jiang’s!"

"Ye Qiu’s amazing! I bet he’ll be the top trend tomorrow!"

Actually, there was no need to wait until the next day; that same night, Ye Qiu’s popularity was pushed to the top by netizens.

He truly became famous this time, as gifs and videos of him gracefully descending from a rooftop spread all over the internet, capturing every viewer’s heart.

However, at the peak of his fame, rumors emerged online about him having once slept with Ji Guang. Though there were no videos or recordings, the claims seemed plausible.

A spreadsheet detailed all of Ye Qiu’s actions since entering showbiz. The earlier ones were mundane, but after his split from Qiao Wenxi, things took a dramatically exciting turn.

First, he was hidden away by Deep Blue Entertainment, then by chance he landed a role in ’Murder Case’, which gained him some fame. Subsequently, the company restructured his career, assigning him to agent Ji Guang.

The issue stemmed from Ji Guang himself; Ji Guang was arrested by the police during the airing of ’Emperor Jiang’, charged with forcing his artists into illicit deals, and even sexually assaulted and abused young actors, having driven two to their deaths.

In short, none of the artists under his care have ever come away unscathed, either compromising themselves or suffering terribly.

Yet Ye Qiu was the only star to end the contract with him right after becoming his artist, prompting inevitable discussions.

The article stated that with the popularity Ye Qiu garnered from ’Murder Case’, the company intended to cultivate him significantly. But unexpectedly, despite Ji Guang’s efforts, Ye Qiu quietly ended his contract, even though he had six years remaining that could earn the company a substantial sum, without paying much of a penalty.

Is this possible?

Or did Ye Qiu do something to warrant Ji Guang’s protection?

Yet, what could an artist with no background do to move a powerful major agent? It was only possible through some kind of deal.

Although the article didn’t provide a concrete conclusion, it was filled with speculation about him.

With Ji Guang already arrested and no one able to uncover the truth, the spotlight turned to Ye Qiu. Plus, with his new drama just released and gaining traction, certain actors fearing loss of endorsement deals even escalated the rumors.

Thus, as the rumors intensified, even though Sweet Orange Entertainment’s PR tried to control the narrative, it was too late.

Due to this affair, a large number of entertainment reporters and fans gathered outside the filming site of the movie ’Source of Sin,’ where Ye Qiu had to temporarily withdraw from shooting.

Ye Qiu expressed profound apologies to the crew and then approached Li Ge: "Believe me, I never compromised myself for Ji Guang, and the messy claims never involved me."

Seeing his slightly pale lips, Li Ge couldn’t help but feel heartache. In her previous life, he was always smeared, only this time seemed fiercer. She didn’t know until joining Sweet Orange Entertainment that he had once been under Ji Guang; how had he broken free then?

"I don’t have time to explain to you, and we probably won’t meet much recently. In any case, please trust me." Ye Qiu gazed at her steadily before reluctantly leaving.

Li Ge wanted to say something, but Ye Qiu had already gotten into a regular business car escorted by staff, leaving her slightly regretting.

With such an incident, not only did she fail to help, but she also made him worry about her. But why did he feel the need to explain to her?

Li Ge knew the answer deep down but had always refused to acknowledge it. Yet at this moment, that defense seemed to falter.

She felt regardless of the ultimate outcome between her and Ye Qiu; she could not stand by idly at this moment. She took out her phone, seemingly poised to call someone important.

By the next morning, under intense demand from netizens, the police issued an arrest warrant for Ji Guang, indicating Ji Guang confessed to the charges while evidence was being verified.

Just an hour later, artists and family members who suffered under Ji Guang came forward to condemn his crimes, resulting in complete chaos in the entertainment circle.

Netizens knew the entertainment industry had dark practices, but hadn’t imagined such depths of darkness. How could a mere agent be so reckless, who knows how many secrets lie behind the scenes?

Following this, there was overwhelming sympathy for Ye Qiu, claiming he sacrificed greatly for freedom. Though acts of comfort cloaked in this sentiment practically confirmed his unsavory identity, suggesting he wasn’t as pure as Young Master Yan Xin.

Other netizens even said that such a person was unworthy of portraying Young Master Yan Xin, having tarnished the audience’s ideal image of him.

Since Ye Qiu had recently risen to fame without many devoted fans, the online information swirled insanely. With the police validating Ji Guang’s deeds, Ye Qiu couldn’t counter claims of willingly offering himself for freedom.

His initial praise turned to doubt, and although people were still amazed upon seeing Young Master Yan Xin again, a blemish existed in their hearts; the former compliments vanished.

Some still enchanted by his looks urged him to remain unbothered, proclaiming they didn’t care about his past, as long as he maintained his appearance.

This kind of talk was nearly insulting to an actor, a severe distrust of his character, and was devastating.
