Retired Villainess Transmigrates into a Cannon Fodder

Chapter 175

Then the viewers arrived at the episode where her husband had discovered her true identity and decided to conspire with someone else to murder her, marking the start of the tense, dramatic arc of the show. Seeing how her character acted like an airhead when it came to love, quite a few people began complaining about her on the bullet screen for failing to meet their expectations, impatient to see her future character development.

Some of the haters began presenting the possibility of Chu Xiang acting the role of the same naive, young woman just like before. What nonsense! To actually turn the role of a savage witch into a braindead, love-struck girl?

Very quickly, the time for Xuan Ruo’s character development finally arrived as she turned sinister. During the scene where Xuan Ruo confronted her husband, the viewers could clearly tell the sudden change in her expression and the pain and despair lingering in her eyes. Her appearance clutched onto any empathy the viewers might have.

Who knew that, with a single technique, Xuan Ruo would sever all relations with her husband and cripple his cultivation. After causing the ruin of that man, she even went as far as to kill her unborn child with her own hands.

Throughout that entire scene, Chu Xiang kept a tranquil smile on her face. Other than feeling heartbroken, the viewers were in complete awe. In any case, everyone who saw this scene became infatuated with that witch. Not only did her character make a distinct statement within the story, but she would also now forever exist within the hearts of the viewers, more so than the male and female protagonists.

“Chu Xiang actress” shot up the top search queries, taking the first spot in an overwhelming fashion. This time, the masses were not telling her to stop shooting movies. Instead, they were all in awe of how she managed to improve her acting skills to the point of perfection, successfully bringing Xuan Ruo’s character to life.

Quite a few bypassers began calling out the haters for their previous statements, forcing the collapse of their stance in the discussions. Having proved herself in acting, Chu Xiang would no longer have to worry about the haters calling her a mere pretty face!

All the novel readers of “Heaven Realm Sect” hurried over to Chu Xiang’s profile to leave messages apologizing to her. After all, her acting as Xuan Ruo was absolutely amazing, perhaps even better than how she was originally written in the novel. They were extremely grateful to Chu Xiang for giving them such an amazing performance.

Chu Xiang had once again gotten out of her predicament in a beautiful fashion. On the other hand, the haters had no choice but to lay down their flags and still the drums. Even if they wanted to slander her, they simply could not do so anymore. Their words would not have any effect on her reputation any longer.

Just as everyone was raving about Chu Xiang’s acting skills, “Ultra Rising Stars” began airing. In the first episode, the few hosts had to perform some sort of task in an aquarium. Since she had once gone diving in “Are Celebrities Capable or Not,” she was handed the task of diving into the water in search of pearls.

Chu Xiang’s figure looked especially dazzling as she swam, not one bit lacking compared to the beautiful staff members performing underwater.

Swift and flawless, all the viewers agreed it was a good idea for her to fill in for Linling’s spot in the show. In fact, Chu Xiang made the show even more entertaining than before. The scenes captured of Chu Xiang swimming underwater even became trending on the web as she was being compared to a mermaid.

At that time, a well-known director just so happened to come across the trending tag, “Chu Xiang, the mermaid,” on the top search queries and clicked in to see what was going on. After taking a look at the video of Chu Xiang diving in “Are Celebrities Capable or Not,” he instructed his assistant to get in touch with Uncle Dong.

During one of her shoots, Chu Xiang received a call from Uncle Dong. Filled with excitement, he said, “You’ve been eyed by Director Su! He wants you to audition for the mermaid role he had been preparing for the last two years. Have you seen the gossip yet? He will be shooting his film overseas. How magnificent! There will also be sci-fi elements in the film. It will certainly be a huge production. If you end up being chosen for the role, your development as a celebrity will skyrocket like never before!”

Of course, it was always a good thing to shoot various kinds of characters. Furthermore, big productions were extremely rare to come by. One should not miss such opportunities.

Chu Xiang grinned. “Uncle Dong, you can rest assured and leave the time management to me. Send the information about the role over to me. I will definitely take advantage of this opportunity.”
