The Reincarnated Goddess is Fierce

Chapter 444: Coming to a Climax

Xu Hening had collaborated with Nie Zehai before, and having been frequently compared with him as of late, there was no way the reporters would let him go without getting his view on the incident.

Rumor even had it that Xu Hening had shown his distaste for Nie Zehai in private, and their fans had some strife before as well.

How could conflicts not arise when Nie Zehai, the supporting actor of “Legend of Qinghe”, had won more acclaim than Xu Hening, who was the male lead?

Hence, reporters went to Xu Hening, wanting to interview him on the incident.

Xu Hening wore a polite, social smile, “I’ve been busy with work lately. I’m not really sure what’s going on.”

Nonetheless, how could the reporters let him get away with it?

“What’s your impression of Nie Zehai, then? After all, you’ve been working together for such a long period of time.”

Xu Hening laughed a little, “We only got together for work, we didn’t hang out much in private.”

“From what you could see, what would you say about his character then?”

“We would act together when there were scenes that required us to. Other than that, we seldom got together. But I could see that he was often with other female co-workers…”

“Yeah? With other female co-workers? What did he do with them?” The reporters were instantly intrigued.

Xu Hening put on an awkward smile, as if he had said something that he shouldn’t have. Hastily, he said, “Apologies, I have a gig coming up.”

His manager came forth to do the peacemaking.

“Hening has a gig to attend, we gotta go now. Sorry!”

Xu Hening left, leaving the reporters with vast room for imagination and some maneuvering.

“Nie Zehai Had Close Association with Many Female Co-workers”.

“Xu Hening: I’m Not Close with Nie Zehai”.

“Nie Zehai’s True Colors Revealed!”

Below these news articles were yet another surge of heated discussions among the netizens.

“Great job Xu Hening! Staying clear of jerks like him is exactly what you should do!”

“So it’s true that he’s a habitual offender. Now everyone knows what a scumbag Nie Zehai is!”

“Fans used to say that Nie Zehai was Qi Chen himself in real life, devoted and affectionate. LMFAO, now the joke’s on y’all!”

“Wasn’t Xu Hening trying to throw dirt on him by being so ambiguous?”

“Throw dirt on him? Did he need to do that when Nie Zehai’s already a proven douchebag?”

Articles about Xu Hening and Nie Zehai were dug up once again.

When “Legend of Qinghe” was trending previously, lots of busybodies had put the two of them in comparison.

At that time, Xu Hening’s acting had been a laughingstock.

Although Xu Hening had a lot of fans, they were unhappy about how the opposing force turned out equally unbeatable in the dispute.

Nie Zehai was like a dark horse that appeared out of nowhere, which posed a serious threat to Xu Hening’s status. It was bound to rouse a great amount of displeasure.

Besides, articles about Nie Zehai were all favorable before this, while the ones about Xu Hening were mostly negative. How could the fans take such an insult with ease?

They were all strung out about how Nie Zehai’s popularity was reaching new heights every day.

Then this incident struck like a bolt from the blue. It was like he couldn’t wait to rush towards his own destruction!

How could they sit back and watch him fall apart without giving him a push?

This time, articles that sang praises and threw insults popped up all over the internet.

Fans even bragged about how Xu Hening was a positive, honest artist who wouldn’t mingle with dregs of society like Nie Zehai.

Sure enough, those who stood by Nie Zehai’s side were brutally condemned and proclaimed garbage!

As the incident came to a climax, the film crew, which had been silent all the while, finally spoke up.

“After a series of investigations, we agreed on the standpoint that @Gu Qiang was defaming @Nie Zehai, and detrimental consequences have resulted. Hence, we have decided to terminate our contract with @Gu Qiang.”

Every bystander was shocked speechless.

Excuse me?!
