Jiang Lili thought about Ruan Tian’s question seriously for a second and then replied: “It should be Zhou Xiaoqiao. After all, she the type where when she makes a move she kills without a trace. What’s more, her moves are all killing with a borrowed knife. I mean, just look at that pack of men who have all had their souls hooked away by Zhou Xiaoqiao. Zhao Meng’er still had a ways to go before she reaches that level.”
Ruan Tian nodded. She felt what her friend said made sense.
In the field of acting as a white lotus, Zhou Xiaoqiao could be said to have reached the very pinnacle.
After all, even after so many years, she was the only one who had been able to get so close to Shen Shu.
Only with Zhou Xiaoqiao’s unparalleled skills could the cold and noble Xu Jing or the violent and unruly young master Qin An be turned into gentle and considerate men.
Ruan Tian rested her chin on her hand and said with an excited expression: “Somehow, I really want to see a wonderful showdown between the two of them.”
However, Jiang Lili splashed cold water on her dreams, “If the two of them met, they would probably end up teaming up to deal with you. If that happened, your life would indeed become ‘wonderful’.”
Ruan Tian: “…”
That evening, Ruan Tian sincerely invited Jiang Lili to stay the night in her apartment.
However, Jiang Lili just frowned and expressed her disgust for the tiny apartment while urging Ruan Tian to quickly move away.
Of course, Ruan Tian also wanted to move, but she really had no money.
She was flat broke.
More than just broke, she was in debt!
After all, back then, she had been defeated tragically after bringing her lawsuit against Qin Yu. In the end, she had failed to terminate her contract and she even had to pay a large amount to Qin Yu for liquidated damages.
It was a huge sum of ten million yuan! ! ! Sometimes she even wondered why Qin Yu hadn’t just directly killed her back then? ! !
Thus, even until now, she was still repaying that money to Qin Yu.
——————–
At the end of March, ‘Obscurity’, which Ruan Tian had recently finished working on, officially released its first trailer and announced that it would be screened in theaters at the end of June.
Twenty-four hours after the official blog released the trailer, the number of views reached over 50 million, and the director’s name was climbing up the hot search.
At the request of the crew, Ruan Tian made a promotional post on Weibo: 【Hello everyone, I am Cha Cha. 】
And, who knew if something was misfiring in Qin An’s brain or what, but he liked her post and even replied: 【Hello Cha Cha, Officer Cheng reporting!】(tl note: If you’re confused, these should be the names of their characters in the movie I think)
Ruan Tian looked down at her phone coldly.
Ugh, Young Master Qin, have you already forgotten that your character shoots mine to death in the end! ! ?
But Qin An was always the type to just do whatever he wanted.
Of course, his response caused waves among the fans.
“Wow! Whether it’s Qin Yu or Qin An, I’m fine with either CP. Sure enough, it’s no loss either way!”
“This is my first time following a CP. You two, I beg you both, please get married tomorrow.”
“So cool, so cool.”
“Whichever one treats my big sister best, I will kowtow down and support that CP okay? hehehe.”
This first trailer was only a minute and a half long.
In the trailer, Ruan Tian actually had twenty seconds of screen time where she stood out on the street in the pouring rain, her voice wavering somewhere between desperate laughter and tears.
In those twenty seconds, her beauty seemed overpowering.
Her eyes were rich with emotion, somehow at once crying and laughing, and just looking at them gripped many people in the audience’s hearts.
It was an odd blend of an overbearing beauty who somehow exuded a child-like innocence, and it stunned the viewers.
A well-known film critic wrote: 【Ruan Tian’s shots in the trailer shocked me. I never expected that she could act and emote so well. Considering she is a newcomer to film, her scenes are undoubtedly outstanding. Even while acting opposite of Movie Queen Li Dongxiang she doesn’t seem inferior in the least. When this movie is released, I will definitely go and watch it.】
Of course, when Zhao Meng’er saw that Ruan Tian seemed to be showing signs of making a comeback in public opinion, she immediately couldn’t sit still and once again began engaging in her little tricks to try to get her fans to start throwing dirty water again.
“You Ruan Tian fans, don’t get too happy. Have you already forgotten that your Ruan Tian bullied Zhao Meng’er?”
“Ruan Tian probably didn’t even have to act, right? Rather, that’s her true character, ha ha ha.”
“Any actress who has no virtue or morals like Ruan Tian doesn’t deserve to survive in the entertainment industry.”

Meanwhile, the public relations manager at Qin Pictures had received a summons from the company president. A shiver ran up his spine as he slowly plodded toward the boss’ office.
He couldn’t understand why a big man like the president suddenly wanted to see him?
When he entered the office, Qin Yu was leaning back in his chair with a lazy expression. When he saw the manager had arrived, he spoke slowly with a faint tone: “If I hadn’t seen Manager Liu come here just now, I would have thought that this company had no public relations department.”
The manager was pouring cold sweat, “P-president Qin…”
Qin Yu’s smile sank, and he tapped his pen against the desk. Each tap was like a hammer on Manager Liu’s heart. Eventually, he said, “Ruan Tian’s news, deal with it.”
Manager Liu was taken aback, but he still responded: “Huh? Er, understood. Yes yes yes.”
tl begging corner:
I don’t like Qin An because he was a total douche to her, but I gotta admit that dealing with FL’s rumors and enemies is something good he does, because FL gives so few f*cks that she probably wouldn’t do anything for herself even if she was hated by the whole world without a reason. This is the only thing that pisses me off about her, like srly girl do something about this you’re leaving us hungry for some face-slapping
Ik dat most of u do not like Qin Yu since he’s been a total asshole ever since they were in their teens but fvck it, imma ship them both. I mean he helped her deal with her enemies (openly or covertly) which the FL doesn’t seem to have the energy to do it, he also DID remember her birthday that everyone seems to forget just because they have the same name as she who shall not be named (mainly because I forgot her sisters name and am too lazy to scroll up). He also tried to get close to her (in a disastrous way) but failed tremendously.
Even if she defend herself I don’t think anyone gonna believe her – except her fans – and thus do nothing. And she’s already numb with being hated – maybe ever since she returns to her family – so why bother?
Just my opinion, anyway.
