Gu Xi may have admitted that she wouldn’t make that scene, so she used a body double.

She rested several days before she could continue filming.

Waiting for the end of the scenes on this side, they transferred the shooting location, and Mumu also came on set.

Her part in the drama was mostly at the latter stage, and she needed to be present during many scenes. Although she didn’t have many lines to say, she needed to be present until the last scene.

“Sister Wen Di.”

Mumu was very happy to see Ming Shu.

Ming Shu smiled at her.

“There’s a scene that I need to work on with you, I’m so nervous...”

That scene was where she sent a letter to the Advisor and would require her to say one of her few lines.

“Why are you nervous?”

“I have too little experience, and I’m afraid of having bad takes...”

Before this, she had only played a few silent roles.

“Who hasn’t had bad takes?” Ming Shu said. “See the female protagonist little cutie over there? She’s been having bad takes every day recently.”

Mumu looked along Ming Shu’s finger.

She said in a very small voice, “She is the female protagonist, that’s different...”

Could she be comparable with the female protagonist?

Ming Shu patted her shoulder. “We’re all human, and we look no different naked. Cheer up.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“...”

...

When the shooting time came, Mumu was indeed cursed miserably by the director.

But in the end, she made it.

Her clothes were wet. She sat on the ground and gasped as if having escaped a disaster.

“Why are you acting like you’ve just finished a fight?”

“I was in a fight.” Mumu showed her sad face. “Life is a huge battlefield, and for each fight, if you lose, you might lose it all.”

“You’re young, but you think a lot.” Ming Shu gave her a flick on the head. “Life must be lived to the fullest.”

Mumu gave her a forced smile.

“How tiring it is to live!”

“But I can’t give up! I will work harder!”

Mumu jumped suddenly from the ground, and in an instant had a full-blood resurrection.

Ming Shu: “...”

Scare me to death, why don’t you!

Mumu was easy to strike down. But within minutes, she could recover and be very ambitious. Then the next strike came, and the next resurrection...

She had a very distinctive personality.

“Sister Wen Di... Sister... Wen Di... What are you doing here?”

Mumu pushed aside the bush and found Ming Shu, who had disappeared for half a day.

Ming Shu was pulling a scaly tail, whose owner was in a cave.

“Sister... Wen Di, what are you doing here?”

What was that thing in her grip?

Why did it look like...

“Mumu.” Ming Shu gave her a look. “Do you think this thing can be eaten?”

Mumu: “...”

“Sister Wen Di, it’s a pangolin!” Mumu went forward and pulled her away. “It’s a protected animal! You can’t eat it!”

Ming Shu: “...”

The pangolin was freed and disappeared into the cave in an instant.

Ming Shu: “...”

Finally, Ming Shu caught a chicken, which seemed to be raised by someone at the foot of the mountain yet lost its way home.

Mumu was also very confused about how she caught it.

“Can you roast it?” Ming Shu gave the cleaned chicken to Mumu.

Mumu: “...”

If I roast chicken here, will I get caught?

Ming Shu then handed over all kinds of spices.

Mumu: “...”

How many things did she carry?

Did she come for the show or the picnic?

Mumu began to set the fire and roast the chicken speechlessly.

The mountain chicken’s meat was very tasty, and with the spices, it tasted even more delicious.

Ming Shu went to catch another one after the meal.

Mumu had gone from the calm in the beginning to the present silent acceptance.

After Ming Shu went back and the phone got signal, she updated her Weibo.

[Wen Di came out again!]

[We’re the anti-fans army and here we are! Evildoer, there’s no room for your unbridled behavior!]

[Leave that chicken alone, Dizi, eat me!]

[What the hell? Isn’t she in the World crew? Why does she live like a savage? Has she been elbowed out by the others and come to such a miserable end?]

[The food looks good.]

Ming Shu posted on Weibo and then just ignored it, letting a bunch of anti-fans curse her willfully.

The more people talked bad about you, the more popular you would be.

Later on, Ming Shu would take Mumu to the mountain as soon as they had spare time. Then she would update the program on food in the field.

Mumu doubted it very much that she’d eaten all the edible things on the mountain.

Netizens had also gotten used to waiting for her to update the situation in the wild.

The funny thing was, just looking at those pictures, the food seemed delicious.

Then, for several days, the source of their happiness did not update.

[What’s going on, is she missing?]

[She couldn’t have eaten something that’s not allowed to be eaten and been taken away, could she?]

[No way, wasn’t the food she ate before all common food?]

[I’m actually a little unconformable not to see her affectation.]

[It’s been updated. It’s been updated.]

[Wen Di V: Thanks to CCTV, MTV, thanks to my anti-fans and true-love fans for your full support, the food show is officially over.]

[Anti-fans on the whole Internet: ...]

They’d been waiting for so many days, and she gave them this?

[World has finished filming. Don’t you watch the news?]

[You anti-fans are not dedicated enough! You didn’t pay attention to my Dizi’s whereabouts! You don’t deserve to be her anti-fans! You are all dismissed!]

[Dismissed!]

The anti-fans who had been weirdly dismissed: Mew mew mew?

...

As World was finished, the drama Fenghua also got its schedule, which happened to be arranged in summer time.

Which happened to be at the same time as Gu Xi’s drama.

Even the official time of release was the same. It seemed like a coincidence, and had likely been purposely arranged by someone.

In order to cooperate with the publicity of Fenghua

, Ming Shu had to fly to different cities. Liang Che could only watch her on TV if he wanted to see her.

When summer vacation came, Fenghua was officially on.

On the first day, Fenghua’s audience rating didn’t surpass that of Gu Xi’s drama.

The anti-fans yelled that they would never watch it!

And they told everyone they knew not to watch it, either.

So it led to the ratings disaster on the first day.

Meanwhile, the drama that Gu Xi was in received unanimous praise.

Gu Xi was new to acting, but her acting skills were quite praiseworthy. The drama’s plot was also attractive, and for a time, news about Gu Xi spread all over the Internet.

Seeing such an accomplishment, Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

“Sister Xi, I was worried that there might be some accident as Fenghua was going to play at the same time. But I didn’t expect that Fenghua’s ratings could be that low.”

Gu Xi smiled and remained graceful and sweet as a goddess, not saying a word.

Wen Di...

I don’t believe you can turn the tables this time!

As long as she couldn’t increase the ratings, who would dare hire her to play any roles?

On the second day, Fenghua’s ratings was still miserable.

The showbiz was quite shocked by such a situation.

How powerful were Wen Di’s anti-fans?

Generally speaking, even though there were enough anti-fans, the ratings wouldn’t be at such a low level.

After all, there were many people who only watched TV and didn’t pay attention to other news.

Besides, there were quite a lot of fans of the original novel.

But the ratings now...

Everyone thought Wen Di was truly doomed this time.

The turning point came on the third day.

Fenghua’s ratings suddenly began to rise.

Just ten minutes on the air, and the ratings had surpassed that of Gu Xi’s drama.

Gu Xi was shocked to learn the news.

She got online and searched quickly.

[I really hate to admit it, but I have to say that her acting skills are always good. Fenghua is a good story. But I still dislike her!]

[Watching TV doesn’t stop me from disliking her!]

[Don’t think you can buy us off with one drama! If so, it has to be two!]

[Hey upstairs, are you a spy among us?]

[Ahhhhh... My Dizi is the best! Cheer for her.]

[I just want to say, as I’ve read the original book, the female protagonist is almost the same as I expected! Of course there are some unreasonable plots in it (which should be the scriptwriter’s fault)... Ahhh! So I’m going to like her now!]

[Welcome to the anti-fans club!]

[Pfft! Don’t listen to the nonsense from upstairs, young girl, welcome to our Dizi fan club. We are all Little Dizi’s confidants!]
