Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!-Chapter 558 - 40: After Divorce, the Cannon Fodder Joins a Romance Variety Show
So the change in Murong Yan’s attitude towards Shang Qingrao in the show can be explained.
Shang Qingrao became so unappealing, Murong Yan discovered she had surgery, and the Domineering President flew into a rage, deliberately dropping his vote in the voting segment, refusing to give Shang Qingrao any face.
Murong Yan was also heavily criticized because of this.
[What kind of crappy admiration couple is this? The woman is mediocre, and the man is even more despicable]
[Men are truly visual creatures, as soon as the face droops, the love is gone immediately]
[I used to like the Domineering President so much, turns out all the affection on the show was fake]
[Are all men really this realistic?]
The Admiration Couple CP has completely collapsed.
Now it’s the show’s crew that has a headache.
After all this, can the original cast continue filming the third episode?
Originally, contracts with artists were signed one episode at a time, so replacing them wouldn’t be too much of a loss.
Plus, Murong Yan has already contacted them, opting out of the third episode.
Jiang Lai also opted out, citing a scheduling conflict.
As for Liang Qizhou, he also expressed he wouldn’t attend.
His presence for two episodes was a pleasant surprise, and the director didn’t say much more.
At this point, the director decided to replace a portion of the guests for the third episode.
Zhou Luo, Hu Peiyuan, Coco will be retained.
As for the others, they will all be replaced with newcomers.
Everyone else proactively reached out, except Shang Qingrao, who was notified.
When she received the notification, she was sitting in a restaurant’s private room, facing Hu Peiyuan whom she had just invited out for a meal.
The phone rang, it was her agent calling.
Upon hearing the news of being replaced, Shang Qingrao’s already unstable emotions erupted again.
She directly threw her phone out in the private room.
The "bang" sound scared the already slightly anxious Hu Peiyuan, causing his heart to jump suddenly.
Too terrifying.
After a few days of not seeing her, his goddess had become too scary.
Things started to become strange when she invited him to have a meal together.
Although having a meal among friends isn’t a big deal, it seemed like they weren’t close enough to sit down and eat alone together.
The main thing was Shang Qingrao’s attitude towards him, which made Hu Peiyuan somewhat apprehensive.
At first, he thought he was mistaken, how could Shang Qingrao possibly come forward to be friendly with him?
Until, her gaze continually rested on him, there were occasional physical touches that couldn’t all be accidental, and most importantly, the nonsensical things she said.
"I’ve always quite liked you."
"I’ve been listening to your songs, the one just released should perform better."
"How about singing the theme song for my next drama?"
Hu Peiyuan initially attended the meeting delightedly.
Now, he was restless.
He somehow felt Shang Qingrao was very bizarre and eerie.
Especially that adorned face with heavy makeup, it didn’t look like an artist’s, and someone unfamiliar might mistake her for a drag queen.
Of course, he didn’t dare voice these thoughts.
He could only hold them in and think of an excuse to leave early.
Then, the earlier scene unfolded, Shang Qingrao suddenly threw her phone, and with that face, looked grotesque and strange.
Hu Peiyuan shivered entirely, sharply stood up.
"I’m sorry, Ms. Qing, I have some things in the recording studio I need to attend to, I’ll head out now, I’ll cover today’s meal."
After speaking, he pressed against the wall to leave abruptly, suddenly caught by Shang Qingrao grabbing his sleeve.
She looked at him, eyes reddened, striving to portray a vulnerable and fragile countenance.
"Peiyuan, I’m feeling really upset, come have some drinks with me."
Hu Peiyuan shook his head frantically.
"I truly can’t today, I really have other things, let’s do another time, okay, next time I’ll buy you drinks."
Following that, he pulled out his sleeve and briskly left the private room.
Exiting, he took a deep breath of cold air, drove off without looking back.
As if a ghost was chasing him from behind.
Meanwhile, in the private room, Shang Qingrao, sat grimly waiting for a notification.
Soon, the sound of an alert came through.
But it wasn’t a reminder of increased Heartbeat Value.
It was a warning of Heartbeat Value reaching zero.
The little affection Hu Peiyuan had for her had vanished altogether, disappearing as if fragile bubbles.
The system was about to collapse.
She had two days left.
Shang Qingrao had gone mad, she kicked over Hu Peiyuan’s chair, then collapsed onto the floor staring at the ceiling, visibly broken.
"What should I do...what should I do..."
The man she felt most confident about conquering had his Heartbeat Value for her dropped to zero as well.
Where could she get these hundred Heartbeat Values?
Did it mean she really had to lower her standards further?
Men in the entertainment industry are used to seeing beauties and evidently have high standards, but if it’s outside the industry, the Heartbeat Value would definitely be easier to boost.
Thinking this, Shang Qingrao scrambled to get up and instructed the assistant to drive her to a nightclub.
This was the place she figured had the most men, the easiest place to boost Heartbeat Value.
She wanted to receive the most returns in the shortest time, regain her peak beauty and acting skills, make those men regret it, stomp Jiang Lai flat under her feet!
Besides, if she couldn’t have a good time, Jiang Lai absolutely wouldn’t either.
Did they think leaving Murong Yan meant they could cozy up to Liang Qizhou?
Shang Qingrao smirked coldly, picking up her phone to send a message to Liang Qizhou.
This wasn’t enough though, she wanted everyone to discover Jiang Lai and Murong Yan’s true faces!
The two divorced yet still tangled together, deceiving her emotionally.
Pretending to be single? All lies!
There’s no woman more hypocritical than Jiang Lai on this planet!
Meanwhile, in the apartment, Sister Fang confirmed with Jiang Lai for the eighth time.
"Are you really going to send it? Once it’s sent, it won’t be good for your career, you might even be criticized.
If it’s just for revenge against Murong Yan, I feel it’s unnecessary, hurting the enemy also hurts yourself.
After all, nobody knows about you two, just pretend you and Murong Yan were never involved.
You walk your path of prosperity, he walks his solitary bridge."
Being adults, one should be rational.
But Jiang Lai resolutely nodded.
"Send it, send it now."
Sister Fang looked down at the already edited content, then glanced again at Jiang Lai’s eyes, finally gritting her teeth and stamping her foot, clicked send.
After sending, her hands were shaking, as she tossed the phone onto the table, unable to look.
Jiang Lai had exposed her entire relationship with Murong Yan herself.
Murong Yan for sure would be criticized, but since he wasn’t an artist, the criticism wouldn’t harm him too much.
But Jiang Lai wasn’t flawless anymore.
Her secret marriage and subsequent divorce would certainly affect her career development, possibly even being targeted by Murong Yan.
About half a day passed, Sister Fang couldn’t help but pick up her phone tremblingly and opened the comment section.
Seeing the first comment, she was startled.
Top voted first comment:
[Who the hell is telling the truth? One says cheating, the other accuses being the mistress, someone’s definitely lying]
[Jiang Lai was married?! And divorced?! Was Murong Yan the ex-husband?!]
