The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 943 - 941

Chapter 943: Chapter 941

Her own artist, being a new rising starlet, had fans who fiercely protected her. Although nowhere close to Qiao Xiaren, she was already being hailed as the next Qiao Xiaren.

So, she was confident in her artist.

Qiao Xiaren had already won four Best Actress awards last year, perhaps this year it should be given to the rising star Ningyue!

Lu Shui didn’t particularly like Qiao Xiaren; in fact, he was somewhat annoyed by her.

A pathway filled with dazzling stars was enough to make anyone jealous.

"Lu Shui, pull all those publicity stunts," Huang Ningyue suddenly thought about how, not long ago, her PR team was focusing on hyping up her and Qiao Xiaren’s bestie bond.

She of course knew, this was just clinging onto Qiao Xiaren’s popularity, leveraging the buzz.

Last night’s Hundred Flowers Film Festival was somewhat humiliating for her, with Chen Lanjun and Xuan Li, both film industry big shots acting like friends, what chance did she, a mere third-tier starlet, have!

In reality, she and Qiao Xiaren had only worked together on two movies. Inadvertently, she had squeezed in a photo with her and posted it on social media. The media, never shying away from drama, started rapidly spreading that Qiao Xiaren and she were besties.

Without Qiao Xiaren’s knowledge, she was "bestie-fied"!

It wasn’t really a big deal; it didn’t cause her any harm.

But when Lu Shui saw this news, he immediately got an idea and began to hype it up, flooding social media with topics like "Qiao Xiaren and Huang Ningyue, best friends forever", and "Eternal friendship of Yue and Xiaran".

Huang Ningyue didn’t mind being the more aggressive friend, but then Lu Shui thought these topics weren’t sensational enough and started spreading topics like "Qiao Xiaren and Huang Ningyue not getting along," "Besties having conflicts."

Of course, Lu Shui intentionally beautified Huang Ningyue, and those marketing accounts funded by money kept mocking how Qiao Xiaren, once famous, kicked Ningyue to the curb, or ridiculed Qiao Xiaren’s poor social connections and character.

Damn, this is indirectly slandering!

Is this really the ethical way? Always clinging to Xiaren’s popularity, and now even trying to tarnish her reputation? Have you no conscience?

Entertainment Follower V: Huang Ningyue and Qiao Xiaren always had a good relationship, with Huang Ningyue even sharing photos of them together on social media. Recently, it seems their relationship has soured. At the closing ceremony of the Hundred Flowers Film Festival, even ordinary friends from Top Secret Exploration reality show, Ye Tiantian, Zhao Gulan, and Bin Yang were present, but not the once good bestie Huang Ningyue. Could it be that Qiao Xiaren has poor character and likes to elevate herself at the expense of others?

The post even included a picture of Qiao Xiaren with Chen Lanjun and Xuan Li, with Huang Ningyue nowhere to be seen. It was a normal picture, but now "black fans" and marketing accounts are using it to slander Qiao Xiaren, mocking her for elevating herself by stepping on others, and now kicking Ningyue to the curb.

Fanatical Fans: Heh.

Celebrity Scoop V: It’s widely known that Qiao Xiaren and Huang Ningyue were considered good friends in S Country, but allegedly some issue tore them apart. Has the term bestie in the modern context become so ironic? Reportedly, Qiao Xiaren has bad social standing and character in the industry, and although there might have been minor disagreements between the besties, hopefully, they can patch things up.

...

This trash these marketing accounts are posting, all intentionally or unintentionally slander Qiao Xiaren, either lowbrow or highbrow.

Exm?

Seeing these marketing drafts, Fanatical Fans are completely baffled—our goddess has bad social standing?
