Chapter 1031 - Not Fitting At All!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Butler Lu felt really triumphant about having books that were personally signed by Dark. “We got it because we knew some people. Otherwise, there’s no way I’d get it.”

He was an old man with slow hands, He wouldn’t have any hopes of getting them if he did not have connections.

Qin Yaozhi never thought that she could do this before. Hearing this, she regretted it. “The autographed ones are no longer sold now! I can’t buy them even with money! Also, Dark hasn’t published a book in two years. Butler Lu, can I…”

“Ms. Qin, I’m not selling them!” Butler Lu cut her off quickly. They were out-of-print and autographed. He wanted to keep them as a collection.

It was hard to get the autographed books even if they were sold for over 10,000 yuan online.

Qin Yaozhi pouted and stared at him pitifully with watery eyes. “Butler Lu…”

Butler Lu changed the topic quickly. “Ms. Qin, why did you talk about The Black Sea all of a sudden? Is there going to be a remake for this novel as well?”

Speaking of this, Qin Yaozhi got angry again. “Yeah! They’re going to make a remake of it! F*cking hell, does Country Z not have anymore screenwriters? They’re ruining my f*cking love! This time, they even picked Zhao Xinran to be the female lead!”

“Who is Zhao Xinran?” Butler Lu was confused.

Given the status of Dark’s works, the male and female leads would surely be people who had gotten many awards. Their acting skills would be guaranteed.

How had he not heard of this person before?

What’s more, even if they used a newbie, there was no reason for Qin Yaozhi to be this mad. It could only be that this Zhao Xinran had a bad reputation in the entertainment industry.

Qin Yaozhi was so mad that she sat up straight. “It’s the daughter of the CEO of Eastern Brilliance Entertainment! How could someone like her act as Jiang Zhao?! Her?!”

Butler Lu did not know who Zhao Xinran was. He took out his phone to search for her name and when he saw her photo, the first thing that came to his mind was… unexpected.

Readers usually have a vague impression about the characters in the book, but when you put the face of an actor on a character.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

There are usually three outcomes.

This is exactly her!

We could give it a go.

Not fitting at all!

Zhao Xinran and the character Jiang Zhao belonged to the third category. Just from the appearance alone, it was unfitting.

Butler Lu felt that it was ruining the character Jiang Zhao too. He frowned and asked, “Has it been set already?”

Qin Yaozhi answered, “They haven’t made an official announcement yet, but most probably.”

Meng Jinyang thought for a while and said, “If Sheng Ting’s fans and the readers of The Black Sea are so against it, then the filmmakers will have to consider carefully on whether to use Zhao Xinran, right?”

Qin Yaozhi took her phone out and checked the current situation on Weibo again. “Zhao Xinran’s fans and the paid ghostwriters have already started working. They’re praising her so much as if it wouldn’t make sense if she wasn’t acting as Jiang Zhao!”

Butler Lu had a glimpse of hope. “What if Zhao Xinran’s acting skills can make people overlook her appearance?”

Qin Yaozhi gave a fake laugh. “Butler Lu, as a person who lives on Weibo 24 hours a day and reads gossip all the time, I can tell you that Zhao Xinran has no acting skills at all. She relies purely on sensationalized news. The only similarity between her and Jiang Zhao is that they are both pretty rich. They’re both from rich families.”

Meng Jinyang held onto her phone and said, “Both sides are fighting on Weibo now. I don’t know what the outcome’s gonna be like but Yaozhi, calm down first.”

She passed Qin Yaozhi another strawberry.

Qin Yaozhi bit into it and continued fighting on Weibo. She tried to fight against the idea of having Zhao Xinran ruin her ‘love’.

Butler Lu laughed in an attempt to lighten the mood and said suddenly. “Ms. Qin, you just reminded me that the female leads in Dark’s works are all pretty rich.”

Qin Yaozhi looked up and pondered. Upon making the sudden realization, she said, “Yeah, they are all big bosses who get anything they want with money! Why do you think the Dark’s female leads are all so rich?”

Gu Mang, who had been painting silently, suddenly said, “Because she is poor.”

Qin Yaozhi turned to Gu Mang and opened her mouth in astonishment, “Sister Mang, you must not know how awesome Dark is!”

Gu Mang continued to stare.

“Let me tell you. Dark has five works and he won awards for every single one of them. Simply put, he had gotten all literature prizes domestically. He also has a lot of awards internationally!” Qin Yaozhi got really excited as she talked about it. “He also ranked first on the list of the richest writers for three consecutive years! Are you telling me that he’s poor?!”

Gu Mang continued to stare.

Butler Lu sighed. “Despite having so many awards, Dark has never gone to collect them. His editor received them on his behalf. Dark has never even held an autograph session before. There’s no opportunity to meet him at all.”

When Qin Yaozhi heard this, he nodded profusely. “Me too! I really want to know what the godly Dark, who created the love of my life, looks like!!!”

Gu Mang continued to stare.

As Qin Yaozhi spoke, she looked like she was full of regret. “It’s such a pity…”

Everyone online said that Dark had already taken his life due to depression.

He was such a talented person…
