175: The 175th day of being popular
The unexpected incident came too suddenly. After the initial shock, the barrage area quickly filled with comments.
【Has Yao Bianliang gone mad? She's openly assaulting someone else, what is she doing!!】
【Sobs, it's making me angry! Luo Shuai is already injured, and she's still treating him like this.】
【Was it intentional? It must be intentional, right?】
【It's just a scene in a drama, and she's directly sending my dear Luo Shuai to the hospital. Isn't this woman disgusting?】
【I had a good impression of Yao Bianliang, but I didn't expect... How did she suddenly become like this?】
Several assistants were in a flurry, helping Luo Shuai up. Luo Shuai was suddenly hit and still seemed a bit dazed, not fully recovered.
Yao Bianliang actually dared to hit him? How could she dare to do it in front of so many media reporters?
Is she insane!
"Teacher Yao, isn't this going too far?" One of the assistants had an extremely unpleasant expression. "Luo-ge is already injured, how can you do this?"
"Yao Teacher, our Luo-ge does have a good temper, but you can't bully people like this."
Facing the questioning of several people, Yao Bianliang's lips curved slightly upwards.
This smile seemed like the standard smile of a malicious supporting female character in a novel, making people feel their fists clenched just by looking at it.
"Sorry, everyone. I've always been serious when it comes to acting. Since it's a fight scene, of course, it has to be done for real."
Yao Bianliang paused and then turned to look at Luo Shuai. "Luo-ge, you shouldn't mind, right? After all, everything is for the sake of the filming."
Luo Shuai: "…"
Luo Shuai held his frustration back, almost giving himself internal injuries.
Is Yao Bianliang crazy! This is not acting at all, she's really beating him up.
She's risking being condemned by the entire internet just to perform this act in front of the media reporters. What is she trying to achieve? Afraid she won't become unpopular quickly enough?
Luo Shuai couldn't understand Yao Bianliang's thought process. This action of hurting the enemy while harming oneself was not something a normal person would do.
But unfortunately, this incident actually happened.
After a brief moment of shock, Luo Shuai finally gritted his teeth and said with a pained expression, "I... I'm fine."
At this point, he had no other thoughts about Yao Bianliang.
This disgusting woman dared to hit him in public; she must be prepared to be slammed by the entire internet!
With things having come to this point, Luo Shuai understood that appearing weak in the face of the enemy would be most advantageous for him. As long as he pretended to be in pain and helpless, letting Yao Bianliang bully him without daring to speak up, countless fans and netizens would relentlessly rush to his defense and scold Yao Bianliang.
This time, he couldn't let Yao Bianliang off easily, and she wouldn't have an easy time either!
With these thoughts in mind, Luo Shuai's legs weakened, and he fell to the side.
The assistants were startled and hurriedly supported him.
"Luo-ge, are you okay?"
"Quick, call the doctor!"
"Should we take him directly to the hospital? Luo-ge's injuries look quite serious..."
The scene was chaotic. Luo Shuai's face turned pale, and with everyone's help, he got into the car. His handsome face was covered in sweat, making him look somewhat pitiful.
Fans in the live stream room felt heartbroken, and many passersby netizens thought this was too much.
【Sobs, this woman actually treated my dear Luo Shuai like this. I really want to punch her in the face!】
【Damn it, Yao Bianliang is still standing there laughing? Does she have no conscience?】
【This... I don't think Yao Bianliang is the kind of person who would randomly hit someone. Could there be more to this situation?】
【Heh, some brainless fans are still trying to make excuses for Yao Bianliang? Just go away.】
【Big brother is so miserable; this is straightforward oppression. The crew and Yao Bianliang need to give us an explanation!】
The barrage was filled with criticism. Yao Bianliang stood by, arms crossed, coldly watching the scene unfold, a slight curve appearing at the corner of her lips.
If she didn't know the truth, seeing this scene, she might even sympathize with the other side.
This Mr. Luo Shuai, although his acting skills were not that great, he could fake illness quite convincingly.
Look at his pale complexion, tightly pursed lips, and the wrinkled facial features due to pain, it would easily evoke sympathy.
One could imagine the amount of public pressure she, as the initiator of this incident, would face once it was reported.
Just thinking about it made her feel delighted.
"Teacher Yao, how could you... Why did you do this?" The director, Huadian, looked at Luo Shuai's car driving away in distress.
After this incident, several media reporters naturally stopped shooting. However, they had captured a big piece of news, and the satisfaction on their faces was hard to hide as they packed up and prepared to leave.
However, while the interviews and live streams might have ended, the online public opinion could not be easily quelled.
Huadian, the director, could already imagine the kind of public pressure Yao Bianliang would face.
"Teacher Yao, even if you wanted to teach Luo Shuai a lesson, you shouldn't have done it at this time and in this way," director Huadian looked a bit bitter.
In Huadian's view, if Yao Bianliang wanted to hit Luo Shuai, she could have chosen a day without media reporters and secretly done it. Why did she do it in front of everyone?
Isn't this handing a handle to the other party?
"Now, it's not good. Those guys from Luo Shuai's side will definitely not let it go," the director sighed.
Yao Bianliang patted the director's shoulder and smiled. "It's okay, I'm not worried about this."
Not willing to let it go? That was just what she hoped for.
Yao Bianliang was looking forward to the other side not sparing her, and even better, engaging in a fierce public opinion battle to completely ruin her reputation!
*****
As expected by the director, the live stream video was uploaded online, immediately attracting countless comments and causing an explosion of public opinion.
In less than half an hour, several trending topics successively appeared.
Yao Bianliang Luo Shuai
Yao Bianliang is suspected of assaulting someone on the set
Spring Warmth, Dew, and Splendor crew, Luo Shuai was hospitalized after being assaulted
This news was completely beyond everyone's expectations, and various types of topics started to dominate the trends. Yao Bianliang found herself in the middle of a storm again.
【Did I see it wrong? Yao Bianliang suddenly started hitting people.】
【If there is another hidden reason, I apologize to Yao Bianliang. But from what we can see now, she intentionally hit someone.】
【Could there be some misunderstanding...】
【She dared to hit my dear Luo Shuai openly. She makes me so angry. Yao Bianliang, apologize to me! Get out of the entertainment industry!】
【Heh, if Yao Bianliang doesn't "become cold" this time, I will do a headstand while washing my hair.】
Some netizens had doubts about the incident and maintained a wait-and-see attitude, but more people immediately started to criticize.
Of course, Yao Bianliang became the main target of the backlash, but some also directed their anger towards the crew, questioning why they didn't take any action.
【Not long ago, we were looking forward to "Spring Warmth, Dew, and Splendor," but then the crew turned around and created such a mess.】
【It's just a staged fight, not a real one! Do you people think actors' bodies are so worthless?】
【This is a historical romance drama, and with this incident, I wonder how the audience will ship the main leads.】
【Can't they replace the female lead?? Having my brother act with this woman, is the crew and the investors out of their minds?】
The online public opinion was fervent, and there was a strong stance of not giving up until an explanation was provided.
The atmosphere on the set couldn't avoid being affected as well.
In fact, for most of the staff members, they felt quite satisfied with Luo Shuai being hit.
Among them, many had been angered by Luo Shuai and had to work late because of him.
Some female staff members had also been harassed by Luo Shuai. His vulgar words and behavior were unbearable for the girls.
If Luo Shuai no longer appeared in the drama due to this incident, it would be a cause for celebration and everyone would be rejoicing!
However, what worried them was that some netizens and fans were demanding the replacement of the female lead.
In the entertainment industry, actresses like Yao Bianliang were hard to come by. She had excellent acting skills, wasn't troublesome, and most importantly, by hitting Luo Shuai, she had taken the anger on behalf of everyone.
Under these circumstances, who would be willing to replace her?
When Yao Bianliang passed by the crew, she noticed that everyone's eyes toward her carried a few traces of affection and admiration.
Especially the few staff members who had been scolded by Luo Shuai; their eyes gleamed as if they were looking at an idol who had taken revenge for all of them.
"Sister Liang, are you thirsty? Shall I get you some water?" A female lighting technician stepped forward and asked in a soft voice.
"I..." Yao Bianliang was about to decline, but someone else came over.
"Sister Liang, are you hungry? Do you want some snacks?"
"I have a chair with a backrest. Sister Liang, you can sit on this chair."
Yao Bianliang: ...
Everyone suddenly became so enthusiastic, and she felt a bit uncomfortable with the attention.
"By the way, Sister Liang," the young woman who spoke first hesitated for a moment and finally asked in a hushed voice, "You'll continue staying on the set, right?"
