30 minutes later, the booting ceremony finally started.
Everyone who was part of the film went outside. In order to keep the ceremony's peace and harmony, Producer Long decided to close off the area from anyone outside of the venue. Only the reporters who were selected by them were allowed access to the area.
The booting ceremony consisted of everyone in the film crew to gather around and pray for a peaceful and successful filming. Everyone received a red envelope filled with money and cut a huge rectangular cake as a sign that the ceremony was done.
Then, everyone rushed inside the building to start the preparation for the first day of filming.
As Ran Xueyi made her way to her dressing room, Ran Yue stopped in front of her.
"Ran Xueyi, how does it feel being in the middle of a scandal? Are you embarrassed yet?"
Ran Xueyi sneered. "You think too beautifully."
Ran Yue narrowed her eyes into a glare. "Everyone is waiting for you to fall from your high throne. You may have stayed overseas for three years and ruled over it for a while, but don't think you can do the same in this country. There are other monsters and big shots that are scarier than you."
"Are you scared of me?" Ran Xueyi's questions stunned Ran Yue to stop talking. "I'm right, right?"
Ran Xueyi continued to walk forward until she was just a few steps away from Ran Yue. Then, Ran Xueyi said, "You don't have to worry about me, dear sister. I can protect myself. Actually, if you want, I can also help you get what you want."
"W-what are you talking about?" Ran Yue asked breathlessly, "What I want? What do you even know?"
Ran Xueyi stared at Ran Yue in silence for a few seconds and laughed. "We're sisters. Though ill-fated, I know what you really want and what you truly hide behind that beautifully made face..."
After saying this, Ran Xueyi turned to the side and continued walking. In front of her dressing room, Adelle waited patiently as she watched the siblings face off each other.
"What did you guys talk about? Did she come for you to bully you again?" Adelle was already given notes of what transpired in Ran Xueyi's family and ex-fiance three years ago. She felt tremendous disgust and hatred towards them for what they did to Ran Xueyi.
Ran Xueyi got inside the room and looked back at her. With a frown, she asked her, "Do you think she can bully me?"
Remembering how Ran Xueyi single-handedly shut those people outside from bullying her, Adelle shook her head.
"Of course not. But I'm just worried you might become too soft-hearted because she's your blood related sister."
"Even blood related sisters can be ruthless to each other. My sister... I mean, my entire family can be more than that."
They're cold-hearted beasts. How can they be just ruthless?
Ran Xueyi rummaged through her bag and took out her phone to read comments from We*bo again. This time, however, she no longer only looked at them.
[Snowrabbit Xueyi: <JPGf.file> Just got to the filming location. Now, I'm waiting for my makeup and dress style to be done.]
[Snowrabbit Xueyi: I woke up earlier and saw that a party actually started without my knowledge. Steffanie, you don't have to be so subtle, you can tag me in your post. In response to what you wrote in your post, are you sure you can take responsibility for your words?]
[Snowrabbit Xueyi: I am not going to stop everyone from joining the discussion. Everyone can scold me and curse at me all you want. I've been away in the country for a while and didn't know much about how people now swear at someone. At least, let me learn a thing and two to use it against someone too. You can also do your research and help the FBI and National Police from uncovering the truths and crimes.]
[Snowrabbit Xueyi: There is also the matter about my gold master. Yes, I have one. My gold master is very tall, handsome, and rich. I receive 100 million every month. Are you jealous?]
It took less than ten minutes for Ran Xueyi to finish writing all her posts.
Adelle walked to stand beside her and looked down. "What are you doing?"
Ran Xueyi locked her phone screen and happily said, "Fun. Oh, right. Tell Wu Qi to make sure that this thing will blow up."
Adelle could only do as Ran Xueyi instructed. After making a call, she returned to hear Guo Yun asking Ran Xueyi a question that she was also curious to know the answer to.
Guo Yun: "Young madam. Why are you helping those people? I can't seem to understand why you want to blow this matter out of proportion?"
Ran Xueyi let the stylist do their thing and when they weren't working on her face, she answered, "It's a matter of pushing and pulling to get the advantage. The more things blow up, the bigger the benefit I will get."
Ran Xueyi, however, only smiled.
All of Ran Xueyi's fans were in support of her and did not actively go after all of her attackers nor did they try to fight with other idol fans. Instead, they only posted their sincere love and support towards Ran Xueyi, making all the other idol fans feel like they were beating up slimes.
Soon after Ran Xueyi posted those words in her own page, We*bo seemed quiet for a few seconds. Then, as Ran Xueyi had predicted, things got more heated up than that morning.
Ran Xueyi's post once again awoke the warriors and gladiators inside her fans. Regardless of her fans, Bai Jingjing's fans, Steffanie's fans, other fans, and passersby, they all went crazy as soon as they saw the posts.
Ran Xueyi actually fought back!!!
...
Poisonlily has something to say: Next Chapter will be exciting.
