Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn

Chapter 36: 036 Just die then!

If this gets out, what then?

Just the part where Shi Lan threw the script at Gu Chengyu would be enough for Gu Chengyu’s fans to ‘assassinate’ her a thousand times over, and moreover, it would usher in a storm of blood and carnage in the public eye. @@novelbin@@

But Shi Lan didn’t leave herself any way out because she knew clearly that this was an excellent opportunity to shed the label of a fawning sycophant, As for the fans of Gu Chengyu who wouldn’t acknowledge her removal of the romance scenes, well, then let them stew in their own juice and concede.

“Really… really going to post it?” Sun Ling felt her voice trembling.

“Post it. If someone else releases it first, it’ll be too late to fix any misinterpretation, so might as well show them the causes and effects at once.”

At this moment, Sun Ling’s heart was racing, her hands shaking, because she didn’t know where this would ultimately lead.

But Shi Lan had a plan.

In the end, Sun Ling steeled her nerves—having already committed so many audacious acts with Shi Lan, she didn’t care about one more. If it meant unemployment, so be it.

While Shi Lan discussed the character changes for Fan Yan with the director and everyone else, Sun Ling hid behind her and used An Lan’s account to release the video.

If we’re going to die, then let’s die with a bang!

Excited, Sun Ling hit the send button and promptly turned off her phone as if she were carrying a timed bomb in her hands.

…

Since it was posted from An Lan’s account, the video’s visual impact shot through the roof, instantly crashing the Weibo servers.

Contrary to Sun Ling’s concerns, the netizens who clicked on the video entered with confusion and left feeling utterly exhilarated; it was sheer thrill.

“I want to curse from excitement, damn, this is way too thrilling, too fiery!”

“That second when An Lan threw the script, I nearly ascended from sheer pleasure. Last night, Gu Chengyu’s fans kept denying they misunderstood An Lan and cyber-bullied her; who could have imagined An Lan would force the fans to admit their mistake with such a compelling revenge drama?”

“Top ten videos of the year, I’m going to watch this a thousand times over!”

“Once a woman gets tough, it really can be exhilarating to the soul. @BeQuietAndWatch, come take a look, no charge if not exhilarated.”

“It seems An Lan declared her switch to the dark side even before joining the crew. Looking at this video, she really appears determined to focus on her career—I’m a fan!”

“So powerful, this is too exhilarating, who can stand it?”

“No manners, the second female lead putting up a fight, who gave her the courage?”

“To the guy above, which dimwit gave Gu Chengyu the courage to be so narcissistic? When someone alters a script, you accuse them of adding scenes, as if he’s the center of the universe. Don’t pretend to be a neutral commenter.”

“Real talent is revealed through confrontation! This is good for TV dramas; if actors can resolve their personal grievances through an acting showdown, the quality will surely skyrocket.”

“I’ve been thrilled, definitely a new fan!”

Sometimes, the psyche of the entertainment-loving public is just that peculiar.

After the video was leaked, Gu Chengyu’s fans went mad with rage, thinking An Lan, that little bitch, was nothing but a bootlicker daring to treat their ‘brother’ that way. But this time, they couldn’t control the comments, because the whole nation was thrilled, and the ones at fault were, quite obviously, the National Couple.

The situation unfolded in a very unpredictable direction, but surprisingly, after the video was released, it didn’t lead to widespread bickering—just pure exhilaration!

Still a bootlicker? With the script thrown away, that was history!

And then, An Lan’s Weibo began to regain followers, and at an extremely rapid rate.

After the news broke, Tang Ze called Sun Ling thrice, but Sun Ling didn’t dare to answer, not until the script reading in the morning was over. Only then did Sun Ling tug at Shi Lan’s clothes and say, “I didn’t dare to answer Tang Bro’s calls, I’m having trouble breathing.”
