On the other side, Ye Qiu glanced at the praising comments from her assistant Ji Qing and didn't pay further attention to it.
Director Song Chen and the leading actor Jiang Wei might have noticed the discord between the two actresses, but they didn't care much. For them, the drama's online buzz was only beneficial to the movie's box office and their own fame.

It was the annual art college entrance examination season, and a journalist had noticed her. Riding on the titles of campus beauty and academic achiever, she had stirred up some buzz.

Surely there was someone behind it; upon investigating, indeed, without her, in this lifetime, Du Siqi and Lin Feifei were still in cahoots.
"Hah, that's perfect, saves me the trouble of dealing with them one by one," Ye Qiu scoffed coldly.

She asked Sister Yang for a week off and, with Ji Qing, drove to the countryside.
