BXBX NOVEL Chapter 144: Who was it that said Zhang Xiying would have the role of the third female lead? (1)
Even if it wasn’t her idea at first, she must have something to do with all of the uproar about her being replaced.
This was a “reminder” that she might not want to go too far if she wanted her future in the entertainment circle to go smoothly.
Sure enough, just ten minutes after the official announcement, Zhang Xiying had already made an announcement on her Weibo to clarify herself: I have received comforting words from a lot of friends and families today. Surprised, I immediately did some searches online. After I have read everything, I almost believed in the words myself. These types of baseless news can be very detrimental, so I urge everyone to please don’t listen to any of the fake news. I do appreciate all the concerns and supports that I have received from my fans and friends.
Lu Xun’s action was much faster than that of Lin Yiyi.
By the time that she heard about the news, he had already acted upon it. By the time that she had finished making arrangements to handle the situation, the outcome from his actions could already be seen.
Within the next few hours, the time bomb about her switching our Zhang Xiying from the movie had disappeared altogether from the web.
With the exception of a few individuals raising concerns or expressing their personal opinions, all of the posts and news related to this incident were almost impossible to find on the web.

Yet, Lin Yiyi’s work was not done. She still needed to look into this.
This whole incident was very suspicious. It came out of nowhere, and it was pointed directly at her. Plus, Zhang Xiying’s attitude was odd as well. Who’d believe that it was all but some misunderstanding?
She, for one, wouldn’t buy it.
Even Lu Xun said to her in WeChat: Either there was someone behind this incident or there will be more to come.
Lin Yiyi had almost no friends. Right now, Lu Xun was the only one who provided her with a sense of warmth.
Truth be told, she quite enjoyed the feeling.
She replied with a blowing_kiss.jpg and then Tao Jiahui walked in.
She @Lin Yiyi on Xinri Media’s official Weibo and posted the newest message: Since the inception of this company, we have been very busy with developing the filming market only to be faced with untruthful rumor like “Zhang Xiying was replaced because she had offended Lin Yiyi”. This is not something we like to see and we reserve our rights for legal actions in the future.
Albeit being a newly established company, Xinri Media was going strong and also viewed positively in the field.
For Lin Yiyi and Xinri Media to be sent onto the most trended search list at this moment in time would negatively impact both the brand and the word of mouth for the company.
Tao Jiahui stood steadfastly by Lin Yiyi’s side on this point.
The two had some discussions and decided on sending letters from their attorneys to the few media companies that were the most active in this incident.
This was almost to the level of slandering; there was no way they’d just drop it like nothing had happened.
Giving an inch now means others would only take a mile next time.
Lin Yiyi, too, logged into her Weibo.
She ignored all the questioning voices in the comment area but simply reposted the official message from Xinri Media and added after it: I am only involved in the investment of the film and not the selection of actors/actresses. I have tens of billions of dollars waiting for me and really don’t have time for something this petty.
Her Weibo was about as domineering as it could get.
A string of “666” was all the responses that she received.
(T/N: “666” means someone was very good at something.)
Many had already questioned where did the rumors of her trying to leech onto the film emperor in the past came from after her being from a wealthy family was made known.
Lin Yiyi’s words on top of both Zhang Xiying and the official site had clarified their stances, many started to side with Lin Yiyi.
