Chapter 219: GTFO Of Showbiz Xiao Rongrong had more than just her reputation to worry about now; she had to watch out for her past victims, who were all waiting to avenge themselves once she had fallen from grace.
Director Zheng did not know how to deal with the mess. Luo Lin, too, was now faced with what seemed to be the worst nightmare in her career so far; she had to call her agency to ask for advice on how to deal with the situation. Xiao Rongrong’s nude photo was a huge problem; nude photos usually did not have long-lasting, negative consequences for an actress’s career, but this was not any ordinary nude photo. It was a photo of Xiao Rongrong after the Tigress had beaten her and stripped her naked for seducing her husband and sleeping with him.
The higher-ups at Xiao Rongrong’s agency were at their wits’ end. The Tigress, for her part, was not done yet: her family’s future had been destroyed by Xiao Rongrong, and she was not going to let her get away with it so easily. She shifted the blame for the injury to her husband’s genitals to Xiao Rongrong; the Tigress had decided to go all out because she had nothing else to lose.
If she was going down, she was taking Xiao Rongrong with her. The Tigress appeared on TV, her voice breaking as she wept openly in front of reporters. It was masterful acting, a convincing portrayal of a wife who had been wronged by her husband; Yan Huan, sitting before the TV, could only gape in amazement at her acting skills. The Tigress deserved an Oscar for Best Actress.
Yan Huan had trouble reconciling the woman weeping tragically on TV as she lamented her sad fate with the fierce Tigress who had ruthlessly beat Xiao Rongrong, stripped her naked, and then had to be restrained by five men.
The Tigress cried as she recounted how wonderful her life had been because of her caring husband. But all of that changed as soon as Xiao Rongrong seduced him: her husband had become obsessed with his mistress, to the point of neglecting his wife and children. He had even helped his mistress sabotage the careers of many newcomers to showbiz, and now he was being investigated for it. This was all Xiao Rongrong’s fault, the Tigress wailed. The actress had destroyed the Tigress’s family.
The Tigress’s press conference dispelled any doubt of Xiao Rongrong being Zuo Fanrui’s mistress. This, coupled with the photo that had leaked onto the internet, showing Xiao Rongrong naked as the day she was born, sealed the actress’s fate. The photo had originally been uploaded in high resolution, leaving nothing to the imagination, but the uploader, possibly afraid that they would be arrested for uploading pornographic material, eventually replaced the photo with an edited version that covered her private parts with a mosaic filter.
But it was too late. Some of the smarter netizens had foreseen this and downloaded the photo beforehand.
The photo, although sensational, paled in comparison to the comments it generated.
“Her boobs are fake. Look, they stand up even when she’s lying down, you can tell right away they’re fake. I wonder how much silicone is in there?”
“I heard that she’s a frequent flier. Man, I’d be afraid of my silicone bags exploding in mid-air if I were her.”
“I think she’s had plastic surgery on her face too. Look at that chin of hers, my god, it’s so pointy she can probably stab someone to death with it.”
“Being a mistress and homewrecker is bad enough, but this nasty woman actually sabotaged other actors, and I can’t forgive her for that. I was wondering what happened to a young actress I really liked, and it turns out that she got iced by Xiao Rongrong too.”
“Eh, I’d take her as my mistress any day. So what if her boobs are fake? She has a hot body. I mean, look at Zuo Fanrui’s wife, I can’t blame him for cheating on her.”
“Xiao Rongrong, scram, you don’t deserve to be in showbiz.”
“GTFO Xiao Rongrong!”
The voices of condemnation grew louder with each passing day. Xiao Rongrong’s previous victims stepped forward in quick succession to tell their stories, some of which were shockingly heartbreaking.
