The persona of the Heavenly Spirit Princess was known as the most beautiful woman in the world since she was young.

Otherwise, in the later scenes, the Heavenly Spirit Princess wouldn't have controlled the military general single-handedly because of her beauty. In the end, because of her breathtaking appearance, the new emperor had taken a fancy to her. In the past, the new emperor had forced her into the palace as a beloved concubine because she had the body of a princess.

At that moment, the Heavenly Spirit Princess in front of the camera had completely let everyone understand what it meant to be the "peerless beauty" in the world.

Her shapely eyebrows made her skin look fair and smooth. The light red lipstick on her lips made her look beautiful.

Under the light, the little princess covered her veil shyly with one hand and nervously held the edge of her dress with the other. She stood tall and straight like a jade lotus, just like the saying, "You're not tainted by the mud, you're pure and innocent."

Her intelligent big eyes were as black as ink crystals that had just been soaked. Starlight scattered everywhere.

There was no need for any rouge or makeup. The blush on her cheeks was the best decoration for a young girl.

[!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

[ F*ck, I was pouring water just now. The moment the veil fell, I didn't even hold the kettle properly. Water! Hot water! My feet are red from the heat! ]

[ AHHHHH! This is the Heavenly Spirit Princess in my heart! Oh my god! She's too beautiful, too beautiful! I can't breathe anymore! Save me! ]

[ I always thought that it was impossible to find a female celebrity in the entertainment industry to act as the peerless beauty in the novel. Now, I think I was wrong. F*ck, how does Xia Wanyuan grow!! How can she be so good-looking? F*ck. ]

[ Let's not talk too much. This is my goddess. In the future, whoever defames her will first ask if Boss Wang of New Street agrees. ]

[ Did she go for plastic? ]

[ The person in front, let's not talk about whether Xia Wanyuan has undergone plastic surgery or not. I think your eyes look like they were made by a human. You must have spent a lot of money, right? What a pity. You've become a blind person after plastic surgery. With that lively expression and temperament, why don't you find a face for me to act in? ]

When Xia Wanyuan's veil fell from the second episode, everyone's appetite was whetted. Just as they were about to continue watching, the ending song came out.

While everyone was cursing in their hearts, "The unscrupulous editing is my son", they flooded to the Weibo account of the production team of "The Long Ballad". "Father, hurry up and update!"

Back then, when the production team released the publicity film, it was only the fans of the novel who were amazed by Xia Wanyuan. Now that the drama was broadcast, within a day, Xia Wanyuan's scenes were edited and spread across the Internet.

The trending topic "Xia Wanyuan's stunning beauty" directly rushed to the top of the trending topic.

Under the deliberate provocation of netizens, the trending topic of "Xia Wanyuan's plastic surgery" that had appeared a while ago was also pushed up.

The first trending topic of "Xia Wanyuan's plastic surgery" was a Weibo account posted by a marketing account named The Duck Prince. He had intercepted photos of Xia Wanyuan in past television dramas where some of her expressions were misplaced, making her look stiff and ugly.

The Crown Prince compared these photos with the photos posted in the Milky Way and concluded that Xia Wanyuan had undergone plastic surgery.

There were nearly 5,000 comments below this Weibo post expressing their agreement.

[ Duck? Are you still there? Come out and take a few steps? ]

[ If he still wants to say that Xia Wanyuan had plastic surgery after watching 'The Long Ballad', then he should be blind and incurable. ]

[ Duck, can you talk? Don't you have to be legally responsible for spreading rumors? ]

[ Perhaps she's ugly, so she subconsciously thinks that parents who look good have plastic surgery? ]

It had to be said that works were the most solid foundation for an artiste to establish themselves in the entertainment industry.

In the past, no matter how Xia Wanyuan clarified or defended herself, in the eyes of everyone, it could not change her inherent image. Now, the drama had only broadcasted two episodes, but many people had already spontaneously stood on Xia Wanyuan's side.

"Do you know when Xia Wanyuan was referring to when she said she wanted to break the contract?"

Star Creation Entertainment still didn't know that Xia Wanyuan had recruited a new manager. After discussing with Tang Yin, Chen Yun also helped Xia Wanyuan hide it from the company.

When Xia Wanyuan first entered the entertainment industry, Star Creation Entertainment bullied her for not knowing the contract and signed a ten-year contract with her.

Tang Yin knew that Xia Wanyuan did not lack this sum of money, but if Star Creation Entertainment wanted to cause trouble after breaching the contract, it would be very unfavorable for Xia Wanyuan's image.

However, Xia Wanyuan seemed to be very confident. She told her to just prepare everything. The time to terminate the contract was almost here.

But no matter how hard Tang Yin thought, she could not think of where this opportunity was.

"If I'm not wrong, it should be when Xie Rou released her new song." Chen Yun thought for a while. Thinking of how confident Xia Wanyuan was when she discussed the album with Liu Can, he felt that Xia Wanyuan must have kept something back.

"Xie Rou? Release a new song? What has it got to do with Xia Wanyuan?" Tang Yin was completely confused now.

"Let's wait and see. There's no hurry. We'll slowly collect the evidence first. When the time comes, we'll catch them all in the net."

"You're right." Tang Yin nodded and no longer dwelled on Xia Wanyuan. She returned her gaze to the computer and intercepted the photos of Crown Prince Duck's Weibo posts about slandering Xia Wanyuan one by one, saving them in the documents and waiting for Xia Wanyuan to terminate her contract.

"What should we do now?! I'm the female lead. Look at what's happening now. Everyone on the Internet is talking about Xia Wanyuan. Who still remembers that I, Ruan Yingyu, am the female lead of 'The Long Ballad'?!"

In the hotel, Ruan Yingyu was throwing a tantrum at her manager. Even though she had a feeling that Xia Wanyuan's reputation would be very good, she did not expect the response to be so enthusiastic.

Almost everyone's focus was on Xia Wanyuan. No one thought of Ruan Yingyu at all.

The manager pursed his lips and thought to himself, 'It's all because you're not as good-looking as her and your acting isn't as good as hers'. However, on the surface, the manager still had to comfort Ruan Yingyu.'

"Don't worry. Don't worry. The company has backup plans. Just wait. Remember not to show your unhappiness when you go out these few days. It's easy for others to make an issue of you."

"Got it." Ruan Yingyu flipped through the comments online again and saw that the "Little Junior Sister is Ugly" formed a sharp contrast with "Xia Wanyuan's stunning beauty". Ruan Yingyu threw her phone away angrily, and her manager rolled her eyes and picked it up for her.

In the manor, Jun Shiling was reading documents in the study when Lin Jing's WeChat message suddenly came in. Jun Shiling clicked on it and realized that it was not a job but a video link.

Looking at the words "The Long Ballad" on the link, Jun Shiling recalled that this was the drama Xia Wanyuan had acted in.

Jun Shiling barely managed to watch the beginning. The moment Ruan Yingyu appeared, he began to drag the progress bar back until the end of the second episode before he saw Xia Wanyuan's scenes.

Initially, he was still watching Xia Wanyuan step by step with warm eyes. When he saw Qin Wu make a move, Jun Shiling's expression darkened.

When he saw the little princess looking at Lin Xiao shyly, Jun Shiling's expression turned cold.

Coincidentally, Xia Wanyuan knocked on the door.
