A few hours ago, before they arrived at the studio, Chen Xu had devised a strategy. She didn't want Chen Mumu to receive all the attention as the female lead. Instead, she wanted everyone on set to disrespect her, and for that, Rui Li only needed to fan a small flame—that Chen Mumu had gotten the role through unscrupulous means. Rui Li had spread this rumor, insinuating that the reason Chen Mumu hadn't been officially announced as the female lead on social media was because the producers were embarrassed by how she landed the role.
It was the perfect opportunity to create chaos before things got too official. Rui Li had even contacted a small "water army" of online users to leak the rumor onto the internet. Although Chen Mumu hadn't seen it yet, the seasoned actors on set had. They were always keeping an eye out for gossip about themselves in the news, so when rumors of Chen Mumu's alleged "indecent" methods surfaced, they quickly caught wind of it.
