Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 301 - 11: Superstar (11)
As soon as the article from Hailan News was published, it received a lot of clicks, with the title: The Movie Queen Used to Be an Extra.
It detailed some things about Li Shuning as described by Ding Xiang.
Li Shuning’s experiences in school, and how she and Ding Xiang went to be extras together.
Ding Xiang didn’t want to lie about this matter.
Some things you can find out with a little investigation.
She wanted to spill some dirt, but Li Shuning was simply too outstanding, always being the campus queen during university, yet never having any ambiguous relationships with men or negative gossip.
It could be said there was nothing negative to uncover about Li Shuning.
If she dared to fabricate anything that really affected Li Shuning’s reputation, the company Li Shuning was with would probably take legal action.
Although this way, she could also make it to the trending searches, it would damage her own reputation, making it not worth the loss.
So Ding Xiang decided to play it safe, setting aside her little schemes, thinking she would just ride on the trending wave for now and find other opportunities later.
After Li Shuning became famous, some reporters tried to dig into her pre-fame life, but found little, and with the good PR by Li Shuning’s company, there was hardly any news about her past.
This gossip article from Hailan Consulting was certainly eye-catching.
Ding Xiang spoke in detail about which film crews Li Shuning and she had joined as extras, and some of Li Shuning’s image during university.
Suddenly, the names of Ding Xiang and Li Shuning seemed to be tied together.
More people also found out that the flamboyantly dressed Ding Xiang was actually Li Shuning’s roommate.
Ding Xiang even said quite a bit about their deep sisterly bond.
A Carrier Pigeon: Wow, my goddess is actually from Zhenhai University, she’s my senior!
Pampered Flower: I specifically looked it up; the goddess was indeed the campus queen during university. No wonder she is called a goddess, a natural beauty.
Tasty Flavor: Such a beautiful extra, is the lead actress even more beautiful?
A Little Goblin: Such a beautiful extra, I feel sorry for the lead actress for a minute.
Suddenly, online comments proliferated, and some dramas where Li Shuning had been an extra were dug up, pinpointing exactly which episodes she appeared in.
Many online comments talked about Li Shuning’s stunning beauty and how gorgeous she was.
However, amidst the praise, there were also some haters.
The Only Truth: Ding Xiang’s private life is very messy; just look at her red carpet attire, not proper at all. Sharing a dorm with someone like that, is it really that clean?
Whispers in the Wind: Ding Xiang needs a sponsor just to get minor roles; if she’s so close with Li Shuning, why didn’t Li Shuning help her out? Probably not as good as it seems on the surface between them, right?
50-Cent Effects: Just an actress, why are so many people interested in this, why not care more about the general welfare?
Leave That Girl Alone: I heard that during university, Li Shuning never let anyone know about her family’s situation, going to be extras with her roommate. Seems like her family conditions weren’t good. But throughout university, she dressed well and soared to fame, hard to believe there isn’t a big shot behind her.
Only Love Big Ningning: Some people are really sour. My big Ningning is so hardworking, so dedicated, never uses a stunt double and never slacks off during filming. She is a good actress.
The online debate was quite fierce.
But Ding Xiang was quite pleased, initially just wanting to ride the wave of popularity, she didn’t expect people to start bashing Li Shuning. She then took the opportunity to create a small account named Whispers in the Wind. Although it might not have much impact, seeing it would have some influence, right?
Being able to tarnish Li Shuning made her happy.
Why should she be like a snow lotus on a mountaintop, pure and pristine, with such a good reputation and so many achievements?
She, on the other hand, had to sell her body for a small role, yet people online claim her private life is messy?
Ding Xiang sneered—was this what she wanted?
She also wanted to stand on her own without those men. Those men weren’t good either, disgusting each and every one of them.
But what else could she do in such a chaotic industry?
Why should she bear such a reputation alone?
Li Shuning is popular now; if she gets entangled in scandals or some dirt is dug up, turning her into a controversial figure, haha.
Li Shuning naturally noticed these online happenings.
However, she was completely unfazed. What should exist does, and what doesn’t, simply doesn’t.
With fame comes trouble; why bother with those online haters, no need to ruin one’s mood over it.
Li Shuning wasn’t bothered, but some people were.
Like Li Shuning’s older brother.
Her big brother invited Li Shuning to dinner, actually wanting to check on his little sister to ensure she wasn’t being wronged.
Within the family, the clan leader’s side held some of the family’s important resources.
And Li Shuning’s father was the clan leader’s own brother, while her older brother, at a young age, was already in charge of a large company.
Considering Li Shuning’s situation, Li Shuyu took her to a rather secluded and peaceful place to eat.
Moreover, without a membership card, one couldn’t enter this place.
Li Shuning and Li Shuyu had a meal, and Li Shuyu looked at her and sighed: "Girl, this path you’re on is really not easy. Look at you, you’ve gotten thin."
Li Shuning chuckled. After arriving in this world, she had been working very hard on her cultivation, not to mention spiritual power, and the original second level of Qi Refinement Realm cultivation inherently brought some rejection to the body in this world. However, after a period of cultivation, it stabilized. Her body was very healthy.
"Brother, I actually work out every day and eat well. I don’t diet like other actresses. See, I just ate two bowls of rice."
Li Shuyu nodded: "That’s true, but being this thin indicates that your workload is still too high. Girl, I’ve seen some negative things about you online recently. Don’t take it to heart. If need be, just tell your brother. We of the Li Family won’t let anyone bully us."
Li Shuning smiled and nodded: "Don’t worry, brother. Besides, uncle doesn’t like my involvement in the entertainment industry. You don’t need to help me; I can handle it."
When they finished their meal, Li Shuyu patted Li Shuning’s head, causing her to tilt her head, smiling, full of happiness. In the narrative, this big brother was very loving towards Li Shuning.
They didn’t know, but this warm, small scene was captured by someone.
That very evening, the photo was posted online.
