Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 121

The camera was in place, the clapperboard snapped, and with a “click,” Sheng Nuan and Su Nian instantly fell into character…

This scene was where Zhu Yue, for the first time, met Mo Yunqian, the girl who had saved her imperial brother’s life and was mentioned by him every day.

“This commoner greets the Princess. May the Princess be in golden health.” Mo Yunqian, dressed in a light green gown with her hair simply styled in a bun, appeared both fresh and graceful.

Across from her, Princess Pingyang, Zhu Yue, sat in a chair, smiling at her silently…

It wasn’t until Mo Yunqian began to feel uneasy and instinctively raised her head that she met Zhu Yue’s gaze. Although seemingly warm and friendly, it was in fact cold and menacing.

“So, you’re Mo Yunqian…”

Zhu Yue crouched in front of Mo Yunqian, reaching out and slowly pinching her chin, forcing her to lift her head.

As if inspecting some sort of object, Zhu Yue studied her closely, murmuring lightly, “Indeed, you are quite beautiful…”

There was a smile on Zhu Yue’s lips, but that smile carried a strange air of sickness and cruelty… Su Nian couldn’t shake the feeling that Sheng Nuan’s eyes were full of ill intentions, as if in the next moment, she might slice open her face with a knife.

She instinctively leaned back and forcefully pushed Sheng Nuan’s hand away. In the next instant, everyone froze.

Director Hou Xin was furious, “Mo Yunqian, what are you doing?”

Su Nian suddenly snapped back to her senses, her heart skipping a beat, and she quickly explained, “I’m sorry, Director. I-I wasn’t feeling well just now…”

Hou Xin didn’t say anything further, but the expressions of the staff around made it clear they all understood.

In truth, everyone could see it—Su Nian had been overpowered by Sheng Nuan in the scene…

After the scene was completed, Su Nian’s expression wasn’t great either. Although everything had gone smoothly afterward, this was the first time she had filmed a close-up scene with Sheng Nuan, and she could clearly feel that her acting skills didn’t match up to Sheng Nuan’s.

Fortunately, in this industry, success doesn’t rely solely on talent…

Su Nian exhaled quietly and prepared to look for Han Che, but as soon as she took a step, she noticed that Han Che was walking towards Sheng Nuan, looking rather uncomfortable and awkward.

“Uh, Director Hou asked me to practice the next action scene with you,” Han Che said with a light cough to Sheng Nuan.

Sheng Nuan glanced at him, “Why don’t you go find the martial arts instructor?”

Han Che, somewhat annoyed, replied, “Director Hou said to practice in advance so we can get it in one take later. You think I want to come find you?”

“Oh, I see…”

Sheng Nuan asked, “Have you been taking your medicine lately? Still feeling weak? Can you hold the sword steady now?”

Han Che was about to explode. He gritted his teeth and gave a cold, forced laugh, “You’ll know if you try it!”

Moments later, Han Che’s sword slipped from his grip again, and he found himself backed into a corner by Sheng Nuan, her prop sword pressed against his neck.

Sheng Nuan smiled wickedly. “Teacher Han, it looks like you still need to keep taking that medicine…”

Han Che ground his teeth in frustration, but up close, seeing Sheng Nuan’s elegant and ornate costume, his face inexplicably reddened.

He clenched his teeth, “We’re just talking. Why are you standing so close to me?”

Sheng Nuan had already withdrawn the sword, but upon hearing this, she glanced at him with a sneer, “You were the one begging me to rehearse, and now you’re acting like this? What, afraid I’ll fall for you?”

Han Che was on the verge of collapse, “Can’t you talk like a normal person?”

Sheng Nuan raised an eyebrow, “Depends on who I’m talking to.”

After speaking, she leisurely took her prop sword and turned to leave.

Behind her, Han Che took a deep breath and begrudgingly picked up his sword…

Fight? He couldn’t win. Argue? He couldn’t outtalk her… How infuriating!

On that very day, while Sheng Nuan was filming on set, a sudden exposé appeared online… The person behind it was Gu Jincheng.

Gu Jincheng, known as a notorious second-generation heir in the capital, often mingled with people in the entertainment circle. So when he directly tagged Sheng Nuan, it immediately attracted a large crowd of netizens.

Then, everyone saw the plagiarism scandal involving Sheng Nuan that Gu Jincheng had exposed.

Gu Jincheng V: Using someone else’s work to build your “talented girl” image? Just outright plagiarizing, huh? @ShengNuanV.

Attached was the song ‘Dream Across Time and Space’ that Sheng Nuan had performed during the top 30-to-20 stage.

Since she had written the lyrics, composed the music, and performed it herself, the song ‘Dream Across Time and Space’ had established her “talented girl” persona and caused her to rise to thr top in the rankings for ‘Girls of the Dawn’.

Now, Gu Jincheng attached the melody of ‘Dream Across Time and Space’ along with a melody uploaded earlier by a C-Station creator called “〆﹏Gentle Wild Deer.” The similarity between the two melodies was strikingly obvious.

Netizens dug deeper and found that the uploader had posted their melody earlier…

By the time Sheng Nuan finished filming that afternoon, the incident had already gone viral online.

Her fans wanted to defend her, but the facts were laid out clearly, so they could only plead for her to give an explanation.

“Nuan Nuan, please come out and explain what’s going on?”

“I don’t believe you would plagiarize, especially something as low-level as this…”

“If this is plagiarism, it’s so blatant that no one with a brain would do it!”

“Haha, so are the fans implying your idol has no brains?”

Then, someone claiming to be Sheng Nuan’s former classmate chimed in: “I heard she’s kept by someone. With a character like that, what’s so strange about plagiarism?”

“Wow, just saying things out loud, huh? Is it that easy to spread rumors? Who’s keeping her?”

“Never heard about this before. If you’re really a classmate, what are you afraid of? Go ahead and use your real name…”

Zhao Meijia and her group eagerly joined the fray.

“Being kept is true. We’re all in the same circle.”

“Everyone in the circle knows about it, we just keep some face since we see each other all the time. Who knew she’d actually plagiarize!”

“She’s already someone’s mistress, so plagiarism isn’t all that surprising…”

When Han Che returned to the hotel, he was bombarded with notifications. Taking out his phone, he finally saw what had happened.

Seeing the overwhelming accusations online, he realized that it was probably Gu Jincheng or Zhao Meijia fanning the flames. Otherwise, things wouldn’t have escalated so quickly.

But… did Sheng Nuan really plagiarize?

After Han Che listened to the two melodies, no matter what, he couldn’t, in good conscience, say they weren’t copied… but he always had a nagging feeling that something wasn’t right.

Would someone as arrogant and proud as Sheng Nuan really do something as low as plagiarism?

Han Che called Gu Jincheng.

“Hey, Gu Er…” He hesitated before saying, “Did you hire a water army for Sheng Nuan’s case? We don’t even know what’s really going on yet. Don’t go too far, or you might end up provoking Fu Yunxi…”

Gu Jincheng didn’t seem to care, “If he’s provoked, so be it… Sheng Nuan shouldn’t have plagiarized the work of a creator I like. She has no one but herself to blame for being so shameless!”

Then, Gu Jincheng paused for a moment, sounding puzzled, “Are you speaking up for her?”

Han Che was startled and almost shouted, “Stop talking nonsense! Who’s speaking up for her…”

While Han Che was on the phone with Gu Jincheng, Su Nian was browsing the trending topics.

A slight smile tugged at the corner of her lips.

She had thought Sheng Nuan might be a worthy opponent, but look at that—before anything even started, Sheng Nuan had already dug her own grave!

But just as she was about to exit, a notification popped up: Sheng Nuan has responded…

Su Nian was stunned for a moment, then opened it.

Sheng Nuan posted three words on Weibo: This is me…

At the same time, she attached a screenshot of the signature from the so-called plagiarized uploader: This is also me…
