Retired Villainess Transmigrates into a Cannon Fodder

Golden Agent of the Adonis (12)

Chu Xiang smiled and said, “It’s okay. If you hadn’t heard it, you might think that those rumors were true like everyone else. Chen Lifeng is using this opportunity to ruin me mainly because he wants to divert attention.”

“Divert attention?” Fang Zhenxuan thought about many possibilities, but he never thought that this was the reason since he assumed that it was related to some sort of emotional entanglement.

Chu Xiang put down the small bowl of apple puree, stretched her waist and lazily leaned against the bedside to browse her Weibo page. She explained to him, “Chen Lifeng is just 30 years old this year. He looks handsome, has good acting skills and has many female fans. Plus, he just won the award of Best Actor this year, which is the prime time and reason for his commercial value to rise. The sudden exposure of his love affair would not be any good for his career. As for Zhou Yuan, who started as a child star, despite being 30 years old as well this year, she had won the Best Actress Award both 6 and 3 years ago. Her resources are very good and her rank based on national popularity is also very high.”

“It would be inevitable for Chen Lifeng’s fangirls to be angry at this sudden turn of events. Some would criticize Zhou Yuan and some might leave the fandom altogether. On the other hand, Zhou Yuan’s fans must also feel that Chen Lifeng is not as good as her. Besides, if she were to be told off by his fans, her own fans would definitely fight back. If their fans quarreled and in the process, exposed both real and fake rumors about the stars, it would have a bad influence on both of them.

But it’s a different situation now— the two of them just started off their relationship, and before the fans could even step in, my role as a mistress is already there to prevent their happy ending since I’m the one that’s continuously pestering him.”

Chu Xiang looked at Fang Zhenxuan. Upon seeing that he was listening seriously, she continued, “Chen Lifeng’s female fans haven’t left the fandom yet, so they must hate me for clinging onto him. I don’t take care of myself as well as Zhou Yuan does and it was said that my private life was chaotic. There’s also claims that I’m a gold digger who sucks Chen Lifeng’s money dry in order to buy branded items, so every single one of those fans must really hate me. Also, their CP fans and Zhou Yuan’s true fans would despise my existence as well.”

“Having a common enemy can make them belong to the same side, so they will destroy me together and establish a friendship from the fight. Although they still dislike each other, at least after such a farce, their energy will practically be almost exhausted, so they won’t have the energy to tear each other up. Perhaps by then, some fans will think that the two of them seem like a very good match together. Some fans might also think that Chen Lifeng taking actions against me all for the sake of his girlfriend is the epitome of a true boyfriend, which will be seen as charming and responsible. Also, this might create a wave of new fans. Once the common enemy is defeated and the shock from their relationship is over, it will minimize the negative effects towards both artists. This is a very good marketing campaign, which is probably done by Zhou Yuan’s team. ”

When Chu Xiang was talking, Fang Zhenxuan kept looking at her, amazed that she could see through all this without being impatient and yet confident of winning. It was also even more difficult to imagine how strong Chu Xiang was to analyze the problem so calmly after crying and drinking so much to the point where she almost died.

She was so brilliant— the best of anyone that he had ever met. He was a little puzzled as to why Chen Lifeng wanted to treat her like this. Was it worth it to turn against Chu Xiang just to divert attention?

He had a premonition that Chen Lifeng would definitely regret it in the future. At the same time, an idea came to him uncontrollably— he wanted an agent that was as good as her!

After a while, Zhou Yuan really posted on Weibo.

[Zhou Yuan V: Thank you everyone for your concern, Lifeng and I are indeed together. We just started our relationship and we wanted to get ready to share this joyous news with you all, but we didn’t expect to be exposed first. What’s more unexpected was that some small issues have birthed from this situation. In fact, it’s not a big deal; every outstanding person will have their fair share of suitors. Lifeng and I will not worry about such things, so you all don’t have to worry as well. Li Feng’s change of agent is also to hope that everyone will get along better in the future to have lesser troubles and ensure that there is more time to focus on filming. Please don’t assume things randomly, alright? I hope everyone can obtain happiness.]

As gentle as ever, there was no accusation made, let alone mention of Chu Xiang. But her words have already hinted that those rumors were true and the purpose of replacing Chu Xiang was to prevent her from pestering them and wasting their time. Them not wanting to care and not wanting to take any action against it was merely a farce to make them seem magnanimous to the public.

Her fans quickly felt distressed in the comments section.

[Yuanyuan is just too kind, too gentle and too magnanimous. She’s not even going to settle the accounts with that woman— Yuanyuan truly suffered too much.]

[That woman is really disgusting. Is she trying to unspokenly rule the artists under her? Rejecting an artist and threatening them with resources?? Blegh, get out of the entertainment circle!]

[Fengfeng should hurriedly change his agent. Even though I don’t like the fact that Fengfeng is in a relationship, Zhou Yuan is still much better than the agent.]
