Chen Nian forwarded her a link and excitedly sent three more messages in a row.

“Yanyan, you’re really amazing. That actress is no match for you at all!”

“Yan Yan, don’t let that b*tch off!”

“Yan Yan, I want to go to the scene tomorrow too!”

Shen Yan glanced at the post that Chen Nian had forwarded her. Lin Lan’s inability to act out the scenes was all captured in the post. The comment that received the most likes was:

“Lin Lan’s acting skills are so bad that she can’t even get through any scenes after filming all afternoon!”

Not a single clip of Shen Yan’s acting in “The Way of the Stars” was leaked, so no one knew about her acting skills.

But when the clip of Shen Yan in a white dress talking to her love rival was posted, everyone was impressed by her superb acting skills. They were now waiting with anticipation for the release of “Return of the Heroes”. Not only that, but Shen Yan’s comment section finally showed some signs of positivity.

Shen Yan replied to Chen Nian with a “sure” before turning off her phone to continue reading the script. Although the female lead had a cold personality, it was a huge challenge for her to act out the innocent and unworldly temperament of the female lead.

On the top floor of the Fu Corporation.

Fu Hang watched the video uploaded on social media, which was praising Shen Yan for her acting skills. The corners of his lips curled in satisfaction. Fortunately, he had arranged for someone to go in the set, otherwise, he would not have known that Shen Yan was being bullied in the dressing room. It seemed to him that Lin Lan did not want to continue being in the entertainment industry anymore.

Thus, he instructed the entertainment department to blacklist Lin Lan directly.

When Fu Hang was done with all this and returned home at night, he saw Fu Xiaoxiao sitting in the living room crying. Old Master Fu sat on the other side with a gloomy face.

“Grandpa.” Fu Hang was too lazy to care about these things. He wanted to head upstairs after greeting him, but he did not expect Old Master Fu to speak up.

“Fu Hang.”

Fu Hang had no choice but to stop and turn to look at him. His brows were knitted slightly.

“Shen Yan is really too much. You must put her on blacklist right now!” Old Master Fu looked at Fu Hang coldly and demanded expressionlessly.

Hearing what Old Master Fu said, Fu Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears immediately and stood up. She added impatiently, “Second brother, you have to help me. Shen Yan is bullying me!”

“Have you guys checked the internet yet?” Fu Hang questioned with an indifferent expression.

Old Master Fu and Fu Xiaoxiao quickly took out their phones. When they saw that “Shen Yan’s acting skills” had made it into the trending searches, their faces completely darkened.

“Shen Yan is the female lead, and Lu Yan is the male lead for ‘God of War’. The two of them will join the set immediately after they finish filming ‘Return of the Heroes’. As long as ‘Return of the Heroes’ is a hit, our movie will also follow suit. ‘God of War’ will definitely become the bestseller, taking Lu Yan’s fan base into account.

Fu Hang said expressionlessly. When he saw a hint of killing intent flash in Old Master Fu’s eyes, he continued, “We are now in the same boat as Shen Yan. If something happens to her, problems will also arise in the movie that we invested greatly in.”

Old Master Fu sighed heavily. His expression grew increasingly ugly. How could he have ever thought that Shen Yan would be this lucky?

“Can’t you change the female lead?” Old Master Fu still wanted to let off steam for his granddaughter.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It was Old Master Jin who proposed to cast Shen Yan to be the female lead. I can’t interfere.” Fu Hang’s gaze fell on the palm print on Fu Xiaoxiao’s face, and he continued, “It’s better for Grandpa to do something about Xiaoxiao. She would have long topped the trending searches if it wasn’t for the Fu family stopping it.”

“Second brother!” Fu Xiaoxiao got so exasperated that she stood up and called out in a dissatisfied tone.

“It’s useless even if you call me. All those things that you did before have been filmed by people.” Fu Hang put his hands in his pockets and proposed calmly, “If you still care about your reputation and want to marry into a good family, just stay at home and learn some etiquette.”

Old Master Fu looked at him with a complicated expression. He narrowed his old eyes and probed, “Fu Hang, are you in love with Shen Yan?”

The atmosphere in the room suddenly grew heavy.

Hearing this, Fu Xiaoxiao looked at him with an accusatory look. “Second brother, you’re bullying me for an outsider!”

Fu Hang met Old Master Fu’s scrutinizing gaze with an expressionless face. He snorted and said indifferently, “Grandpa, you’re thinking too much.”

“Is that so?” Old Master Fu did not seem to believe what Fu Hang said and asked rhetorically.

“Xiaoxiao is the young miss of the Fu family. However, she often stirs up trouble outside, which damages the Fu family’s reputation.” Fu Hang pursed his lips and looked at Old Master Fu coldly, “There are many people gossiping about her outside. Moreover, It’s getting late, and I’m tired. I’m going to rest.”

Fu Hang was too lazy to explain any further and lifted his feet toward the stairs.

Old Master Fu watched Fu Hang’s back as he left. He narrowed his eyes and quickly hammered the walnut in his hand. His gaze grew increasingly sharp. Finally, he clenched the walnut in his hand tightly.

He had to hollow out Fu Hang’s authority.. Otherwise, the Fu family would only listen to Fu Hang’s command solely in the future.
