The mind-reading fake heiress changes her fate by eating melons.

It turns out that Qiu Nian suddenly froze on the spot and couldn't continue the scene for some reason.

After being yelled at by the director, Qiu Nian immediately came to her senses and apologized:

"I'm sorry, director, it's my fault, I..."

“It’s okay,” Jia Shaoxi suddenly spoke up, looking gently at Qiu Nian to smooth things over, “It’s normal to be out of sorts sometimes, we can just do another take.”

He seemed to be speaking up for Qiu Nian, but while he managed to be the good guy, the staff's resentment towards Qiu Nian only intensified.

If Qiu Nian had continued apologizing, no one would have thought anything of it. After all, it's normal for scenes to have retakes. But Jia Shaoxi interrupted her apology, so people just thought that Qiu Nian, as a newcomer, had an improper attitude, which naturally gave them a bad impression of her.

"Fine," the director said impatiently, looking at Qiu Nian, "let's start over."

"It's alright, Qiu Nian," Jia Shaoxi patted Qiu Nian's shoulder and comforted her gently, "Just be more serious from now on."

Just as the director was about to yell "Action," a woman suddenly stormed into their area.

"You shameless slut who seduced someone else's boyfriend!"

Her voice was shrill as she rushed to Jia Shaoxi and Qiu Nian's side, grabbing Jia Shaoxi's hand off Qiu Nian's shoulder with one hand and raising the other hand high to slap Qiu Nian's face.

The incident happened so suddenly that no one around could react.

Just as the slap was about to land, a completely black object suddenly rushed out from another direction and crashed into the woman, knocking her flat on her back.

"what!"

Wang Rongxin cried out in pain and looked at the thing that had hit her, only to find that it was a person dressed in all black.

"what are you doing!"

"I haven't even asked you what you're doing yet!" An Ling said. "You actually want to hit someone in broad daylight?"

Wang Rongxin scrambled to her feet in a disheveled state, pointed at Qiu Nian's nose, and cursed, "This vixen seduced my boyfriend first! Who told her to be so shameless!"

"Who are you? And who is your boyfriend? You said Qiu Nian seduced your boyfriend. Does Qiu Nian even know about this?" An Ling was not intimidated at all. Anyway, no one recognized her now, so she could throw a tantrum however she wanted.

After hearing this, Qiu Nian quickly shook her head, "I don't know."

Wang Rongxin was even angrier. She pulled Jia Shaoxi, who was standing to the side wishing he could hide, and said, "This is my boyfriend. Do you dare to say you didn't seduce him?"

"I didn't," Qiu Nian answered decisively.

She missed a scene and had to retake it because she suddenly heard a familiar voice in her head.

If she wasn't mistaken, the voice sounded very similar to An Ling's. She had read many of An Ling's works and was very familiar with her voice, but it seemed that only she reacted to the voice. Judging from the expressions of the other people around her, it was as if they hadn't heard anything at all.

Moreover, what the voice said was really strange. Although it was absurd, she still managed to hear the specific details clearly.

Even more outrageous, what the voice described actually happened.

If this man in black hadn't suddenly rushed out and bumped into Wang Rongxin, Qiu Nian might have really been slapped in the face in public.

They were filming on location this time. In addition to the crew members, there were also passersby on the roadside from time to time. Although there were staff members around to prevent outsiders from taking photos and leaking photos, it was impossible to stop them all.

Once something is filmed and posted online, it becomes difficult to clarify.

As long as the video of Qiu Nian being slapped is released first, along with some ambiguous speculation.

Topics like Qiu Nian interfering in someone else's relationship and being slapped in the street by the original wife will spread first. If unscrupulous marketing accounts add fuel to the fire, Qiu Nian's name may become associated with mistresses. How will she be able to establish herself in the entertainment industry in the future?

Thinking of this, Qiu Nian looked at the man in black with a hint of gratitude.

The more I looked, the stranger it seemed. Not only did the voice sound similar, but the figure also resembled An Ling's.

But now is not a good time to ask questions; she should deal with the matter at hand first.

Fortunately, she now knows the truth: it was just Jia Shaoxi talking nonsense in front of his girlfriend. She just needs to confront him and clarify things.

Qiu Nian then looked at Jia Shaoxi and said, "Teacher Jia, there must be some misunderstanding here. You should know best whether I did such a thing or not. This concerns our reputations, so please clarify this for me."

Qiu Nian thought everything would be fine after she said those words, but An Ling sighed instead.

【well. 】

[What a naive kid who hasn't been taught a lesson by society! Entering this cesspool of the entertainment industry, he's completely tainted and won't utter a sound.]

Qiu Nian was still wondering why An Ling suddenly made such a remark when Jia Shaoxi suddenly spoke up righteously.

"Qiu Nian, now that things have come to this, I'll tell you the truth. I told you long ago that I have a boyfriend and that you shouldn't have any improper thoughts about me. But you still said that you don't care about status and just want to be with me."

"I've really had enough of you. My heart belongs only to Rong Xin. There's absolutely no future for us. Don't even think about ruining our relationship!"

Wang Rongxin linked arms with Jia Shaoxi, displaying a victorious air.

Qiu Nian was so shocked by this completely unexpected development that she stood there speechless.

[This is pretty much the same plot development as before. Qiu Nian maintained her composure after being hit and asked Jia Shaoxi to explain, but how could Jia Shaoxi possibly tell the truth?]

[By telling the truth here, he's admitting he lied to Wang Rongxin. Where can you find someone like Wang Rongxin, who comes from a wealthy family, is good-looking, and is willing to spend money on him? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.]

[Besides, if this gets out, it won't be good for his reputation. He's not stupid; people who do things like this have no morals to speak of. Why would he expose himself just to clear Qiu Nian's name?]

A crowd had already gathered around, including not only the crew members but also many onlookers holding up their phones. If this wasn't handled properly, Qiu Nian would definitely be in trouble.

"Do you have any evidence?" Qiu Nian finally calmed down and questioned Jia Shaoxi, "You say I seduced you, you must have some evidence."

To everyone's surprise, Jia Shaoxi completely ignored Qiu Nian and instead said to the director with a helpless expression:

"Director Lin, you've seen what happened. I originally thought that since we were working together in the same production team, I could just put up with it and not work together again after filming was over."

"But now that things have come to this, I'll be frank: if Qiu Nian is still in this production, I won't act anymore."

In Qiu Nian's twenty-odd years of life, she had never seen such an unreasonable person who turned black into white.

She looked at the director in shock, wondering why Jia Shaoxi could say such things so brazenly.

Could the director really fire her based on a few baseless accusations from Jia Shaoxi?
