Chapter 442 - This Wasn’t Quite Right
The Reincarnated Goddess is Fierce
The preliminary rounds of âMillion Dollar Courage and Wisdomâ would be released on the website in two separate episodes, and filming would continue.
The show did release a trailer prior to the airing, but it did not draw much attention.
Nonetheless, it quickly became the center of attention after what happened with Xia Xibei and Nie Zehai.
The netizens were eager to know just how âastonishingâ Xia Xibeiâs performance was on the show.
Thus, the crew found out that the number of views quickly skyrocketed after the first episode, which far surpassed their expectation.
The viewers who watched the first episode were in a quandary.
They had come to watch the show with the intention of checking out the scandal, but surprisingly ended up enjoying the show a lot!
What impressed them the most was Xia Xibeiâs performance.
The amount of confidence and composure she had and the immensity of her knowledge, as well as the way she had the answers to various questions at her fingertips left everyone in awe and envy.
She was so fast in responding that she came up with the answer right after a question was displayed!
The speed at which she answered the questions left all the viewers in total stupefaction.
âDamn! Is that how fierce all top scholars are?â
âHoly jeez, I feel like a moron right now!â
âHow can someone have both looks and wits? I donât think I should even exist now.â
âThere are quite a few pretty girls on the show! Ren Ningning is my favorite!â
âIâm speechless! This reminds me of those scary top students back at school!â
âLOL, you guys actually believe sheâs a top scholar? Canât you tell from the look of it? The questions have been leaked!â
âQuestions have been leaked? Holy cr*p! You must be kidding right?â
âDidnât you read the news? Xia Xibei and Nie Zehai had a fling! Do you think itâd be hard to get her the questions in advance, with Nie Zehaiâs influence?â
âGoodness! Do all shows play dirty these days? What a huge disrespect to the viewers!â
âXia Qinghan is pretty impressive too. Although she got two questions wrong, thatâs just what we consider normal, ainât it? Sheâs a true beauty with brains!â
âYouâre right... Itâs not logical, getting all the questions right!â
âOur Sister Bei has always been a genius. Those who say thereâs some inside dealing going on must be dregs of the class I suppose? How would dregs understand the greatness of top scholars?â
âLMAO! Yeah, yeah, your Sister Bei is great! Sheâs the greatest of all! Why wonât she take a look in the mirror?â
Xia Qinghan and Bai Meixue were dying with laughter as they went through the comments.
However, they came to their senses after a whileâthis wasnât quite right though!
Everyone was busy talking about Xia Xibei and Nie Zehai at the moment, what about Xia Qinghan then?
Xia Qinghan was also a contestant on the show, so why didnât they mention her much?
Apparently, there were very few mentions of Xia Qinghan in the comments, not even adding up to one-fifth of the comments about Xia Xibei!
âNo way, Iâll have them ramp up their efforts!â
Bai Meixue was wearing a look of dismay.
It was true that their motive was to bring Xia Xibei down, but Xia Qinghanâs popularity had to be boosted in the meantime!
But look at what was going on! Why was everyone only talking about Xia Xibei?
This wasnât right!
Bai Meixue got in touch with the marketing company right away. Very soon, comments about Xia Qinghan started popping up on the internet.
Before they could rest at ease however, topics about Xia Xibei began raging all over again, and Xia Qinghanâs popularity went down in no time.
The two exchanged glances, their faces ashen.
Bai Meixue could only comfort Xia Qinghan, âDonât worry! The more they talk about her now, the worse sheâll end up!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xia Qinghan had no choice but to grit her teeth and bear with it. She couldnât wait to witness Xia Xibeiâs nasty fall!
Soon, Gu Qiang posted screenshots of her conversation with Nie Zehaiâs manager, Brother Mao, which stirred up another round of commotion.
