Transmigrating Into The Male Lead’s Villainess Older Sister

“The leading casts of 《Qing Guo》had been announced prior to this. Like everyone else, the original poster is also curious about Zhou Siyu, the third female lead, who plays Yun He. After all, she’s very noticeable. If she has had projects before, the original poster would definitely have an impression about her. However, when the original poster dug deep to look for her details, she found that something was fishy. As you all know, Director Liang’s movies have always been a big project with big reputations. However, this Zhou Siyu had only taken a couple of pictures since the day of her debut. She even had never done any advertisements. How could such an unqualified and unskilled newcomer wormed her way into Director Liang’s production crew?” 

At the beginning of the post, they put on a show like they were really just checking 《Qing Guo》’s casts earnestly. Then, they finally targeted Siyu, doubting that Siyu – a newcomer who didn’t have any projects before – depended on her connection to enter the production crew.

Because Ji Lin was also one of the casts, many people paid attention to this new project of Director Liang. This post quickly became the top in the forum’s homepage. The post was followed closely by a large group of people who continuously expressed their doubts about Siyu who ‘didn’t have the ability to enter the production crew’. Moreover, very quickly there was someone who dug up the entirety of Siyu’s personal record [of education, work experience, attainments, etc].

  【When this model made her debut, she didn’t even have any decent works. This kind of person actually can act for a film?】

【I’m disappointed! Director Liang’s reputation is very good. How could he use such a person for this movie? At first, I rushed here because of Ji-ge, but now I’m a bit hesitant. How could an actress who got in through the backdoor act well?! 】

【I recalled that this Zhou Siyu had become a top-search twice before? Maybe because at that time, she couldn’t even cause the slightest ripples, she began to buy the hot search to hype her up. The financial backer behind her must have paid a lot of marketing fee to hold her.】

Once things started to be brought up, the situation behind became unstoppable. All kinds of speculations and abuses poured in one after another. All of a sudden this ‘digging’ became a hot thread. Even to the extent that these topics of  “Zhou Siyu’s financial backer” and “Zhou Siyu’s behind-the-scenes supporter” became a hot search on Weibo.

In a short time, 《Qing Guo》’s official blog was once again jam-packed with people. The crowd of people continuously mentioned the official blog in hope that they would come out and explained how Siyu got into the production crew. Needless to say, the personal mailbox of that “Zhou Siyu yuyuyu” account of Siyu was also quickly filled to a bursting point.

“Siyu-jie, what’s going on? Who bought the water-army to defame you?!” Chen Yue had always helped Siyu in managing this official account. As soon as she went online this time, she was immediately submerged in countless personal messages and mentions. After she finished reading all of it with great difficulty and understood the whole story, Chen Yue was dumbfounded.

Their Siyu was completely transparent before and this was her first time shooting for a movie. Yet, at this moment there’s actually someone who purposefully vilified her?

The post on the forum clearly indicated that someone was deliberately guiding the public’s opinion. Chen Yue saw that the hot searches about Siyu were still climbing up. She was a bit apprehensive and hastily asked, “Siyu-jie, how about I contact the company and let the public relations department investigate it for you?”

Right now, Siyu has just started, so she must not be tainted with any bad things!

Siyu was skimming through that post on her phone. She saw that in that post the speculation about her backer differed widely. However, when she saw that they were going in circles and no one was brave enough to directly point out that she had the support from Huanyi’s CEO, She broke into laughter, “ I reckoned that even if they check, they wouldn’t be able to find any clue. There’s certainly traces of the water-army in there, but the person who directed the post must be very smart. Because she knows that I had the support of Huanyi, if she directly pointed things out then she’d truly offend Huanyi, therefore she all along just muddled the water through fake news.”

Chen Yue pondered over it and burst into a sweat, “So you mean….. The person who posted this to vilify you is inside the production crew?”

The reason was very simple, previously no one knew that Siyu had a contract with Huanyi. It was only after Lu Xingzhou who in high-profile flung an investment contract to maintain Siyu’s role that the casts in the production crew knew that this unknown little girl had a backer. Therefore, it could only be someone from the production crew who released the news.

Right at this moment, Director Liang came over with anger shown on his face. Obviously, he also heard the matter of someone on the internet doing a large-scale ‘digging up’ of Siyu’s matter. Now that Siyu was in the production crew, if something went wrong, the whole crew would be implicated. Furthermore, there was a large number of internet users who incessantly demanded answers under the official blog.

“Siyu, please be assured. Don’t be affected by these groundless talks. You are someone whom I personally selected and I’m very clear about this.” Seeing Siyu shrinking in the chair while sipping her medicine made Director Liang suddenly remember that these days she had been sick, but gritted her teeth and insisted on filming. Her illness had never implicated the film progression and so he couldn’t help but feel pity for her.

He rarely met actresses like Siyu who regarded acting as something more important than her own health. Only by true love that one would be so dedicated. Those speculations on the internet that said that she’s someone who relied on her connection to get into through the backdoor was simply a slander!

“Director Liang, Now that some people are doubting the production crew, I wonder if you need me to clarify things….” Siyu tentatively asked.

“You don’t need to say anything about this matter.” Director Liang’s expression turned serious and he coldly said, “I’ll deal with it. You just need to maintain your condition and properly finish the shooting. The final result of the movie you starred in will be the strongest counterattack.”

Siyu obediently nodded, “I understand.”

After she said that, a figure like a whirlwind blew over. It directly ignored Director Liang and flew over to Siyu’s side, “J-jie you shouldn’t look at your phone for the time being——”

Ji Lin got a glimpse of Siyu’s phone screen and it happened that the screen still showed the interface of that ‘digging’ post in the forum. Thus, his sentence came to an abrupt end.

“Why can’t I look at it? Aren’t what they said was well presented?” Siyu high-spiritedly skimmed over the replies to that post and lamented that the hole in the internet users’ brain was really big. Even to the extent that some people suspected that she was a miss perfect who entered the entertainment circle for fun! Siyu laughingly looked at Ji Lin who was helplessly looking at her while inwardly thinking that this was the true rich second generation. [T/N: 白富美- Miss perfect, a girl who’s white, rich, and beautiful]

Ji Lin saw that he was a step too late and his sister had already seen them. He immediately felt disheartened and said, “Jie, the things they said are very rude!”

Not only that it was unpleasant to the ear, but all kinds of baseless speculations were thrown over. Ji Lin immediately burst with rage, if it wasn’t for Xiao Ai desperately stopping him, he would have released a post on Weibo to support Siyu at that time.

However, even if he couldn’t use his official account, he still had his smurf account! Ji Lin coldly laughed and switched over to that smurf account called “Braised Fish Head” that he specially made for his sister. At that time, in order to collect his sister’s photos better, Ji Lin specially joined Siyu’s fans club. As soon as the slanderous post appeared, Ji Lin went into the group and sure enough, everyone was boiling with rage. 

Ji Lin had mixed in the entertainment circle for many years. What kind of pork he hadn’t eaten and what kind of pig he hadn’t seen running? He immediately took the lead to organize the fans in the group to fight back. Someone said that Siyu bought the top search? Then they immediately threw the video of her saving people from that time and threw the comments full of praises from the online netizens! There’s someone that said Siyu didn’t have a work base? Then they immediately threw cover pictures of 《Fashion ICON》 and the sales made from the magazine!

The solid hammers were set out one by one and beat those wicked stupid b*tches’ face into a pulp! Ji Lin’s fingers were unceasingly hitting on the keyboard and his gaze was firmly locked onto the screen. He had been up all night to fight bravely on the frontline. He was a young master from a rich family who had been well-educated since childhood, so how could he know how to do a catfight on the internet? It was all a ‘learn and apply on the spot’. After one full night, he had mastered all the curse words.

Xiao Ai hugged a bolster while watching Ji Lin fight bravely from the side. Seeing Ji Lin became braver the more he fought, Xiao Ai became a bit jumpy, “Ji-ge, Ji-ge that’s about enough!”

Oh my gosh, she had been with Ji Lin for so many years, yet she had never known that Ji Lin’s combat strength was on par with professional fans! Moreover, he organized the fans in an orderly manner, and his operation of ‘using hammers to control the comments’ worked very well. While in trance, Xiao Ai thought; where in the world is he a popular star? He’s clearly a fanboy of Siyu!

Ji-ge, being ‘quick on the uptake’ shouldn’t be used like this!

It’s just that, although Ji Lin’s was very awesome, Siyu’s genuine fans were too few. Compared to the “black materials” that bore down menacingly, they’re almost hopelessly outnumbered. However, at this moment, the online netizens found out that 《Qing Guo》’s official blog released two videos. [T/N: 黑料 – black materials/ slanders to vilify her]

The first video seemed to be a scene from the film. Siyu, who was dressed in white clothing, was leaning weakly by the bedside while coughing up blood. When Director Liang shouted for a cut, she was still incessantly coughing up blood. Immediately, there was a staff member who came up to give her medicine and persuade her to rest. However, she shook her head, said that she’s okay, and insisted on continuing the shooting. These didn’t conform with the “putting on air of a superstar without conscientiousness” that the anti-fans shouted.

The second video was a segment from the audition. The production crew craftily picked out more than ten participants as comparisons. In contrast to the other artists’ exaggerated acting, the completely genuine illness of Siyu appeared very striking. Furthermore, one could see from the video that one of the sponsors didn’t want to choose her. It was the director and Ji Lin who strongly argued for it before Siyu was finally selected. It was entirely different from the rumors that Siyu entered the production crew by depending on her connection.

After these two videos were released, a lot of questions had actually been able to be clarified. However, Director Liang was still not satisfied, He really thought highly of Siyu – this newcomer. Now that she was vilified in his own production crew, he was furious. He specially released another blog: “In spite of illness, Siyu insisted on shooting. Her health was very bad, but in order to pursue the best result, she had always been very hard working. Even to the extent that she vomited blood a couple of times and lost consciousness. If the so-called “entering through the back door” that you guys spoke off was this kind of responsible and good actress, then I would rather have a few more!”

Director Liang rarely spoke up for others, so the people in Weibo suddenly turned in an uproar. Especially seconds after Director Liang released his post, Ji Lin immediately forwarded it and declared his stands, “I believe in Director Liang’s vision and I also believe in my own judgment. A good artist doesn’t pay attention to the origin, but pays attention to the works.”

In this way, people who rejoiced in vilifying Siyu became dumbfounded: Why did Ji Lin suddenly voice out his support?! Isn’t he the most famous superstar who, besides for work, had never posted anything on his Weibo? This time, it actually changed?

Ji Lin’s interference completely turned the situation around. His fans would always resolutely follow and stood on the same battlefield as their idol. Since Ji Lin had declared his stands, then these fans who were just watching from the sidelines, went to Siyu’s Weibo to support her.

@Captain Charizard: Xiao-jiejie, fighting! Anti-fans please stop. Ji-ge had personally said that she’s a good actress. She is still filming even though she’s seriously ill. I would like to ask, can you also accomplish this?

@Graceful Sauce: Does no one think that Xiao-jiejie really immersed in her character when she’s acting? As soon as she vomited blood, I felt like crying. The feeling is too on-point!

@White Peach: If she really entered the crew with money, is there any need for her to work hard for the shooting?! The person who started this rumor, please apologize to Xiao-jiejie immediately!

As the party concerned, Siyu seemed to have no idea how fierce the situation on the battlefield was. She also didn’t released any clarification and just calmly released a picture of braised fish in soy sauce during the most intense quarrel, and said:

@Zhou Siyu Yuyu: eat more fish to repair your brain.

“Pfff…. Hahaha! This girl has a full-mark taunting skill!” In Jiang City’s Lu family’s main residence, Lu Xingzhou, who finally came back after completing his task, just lately learned about Siyu’s situation from his subordinate. He had only seen it when the war was drawing near to its end and he happened to come across this new blog that Siyu posted. As soon as he saw it, he immediately laughed, “Fifth Master, you [formal] see, she is ridiculing those people who vilified her as stupid!”

An ancient book was spread open on Fifth Master Lu’s knee. However, he had not turned over a page for a long time. He just stared down at the words on the book and the pace of his hand turning the beads got faster and faster.

Lu Xingzhou was still telling him about Siyu’s recent situation when all of a sudden Fifth Master Lu interrupted, “have you found out who posted it?”

Lu Xingzhou quickly answered, “I had looked into it. However, that person is a professional anti-fan. As long as he received money, he could vilify anyone. He said that he himself had never seen the person who instructed him. They were just conversing through the internet. The money was also sent from an unlicensed shop. The chat records were all destroyed. I am currently looking for someone to recover it.”

Fifth Master Lu went silent for a while and seemingly asked unintentionally, “after the incident happened, she hadn’t looked for you?”

Lu Xingzhou shook his head, “Nope. She didn’t even make a sound. I’ve also just known about this matter recently. I originally wanted to help her, but after seeing she handle it well by herself, I didn’t ask.”

Fifth Master Lu put on a gentle smile and his hand stopped moving suddenly, “very good.”

Looking at Fifth Master’s face, Lu Xingzhou’s mind was suddenly blessed with fortune and he cautiously probed, “Fifth Master, I think it’s not that the girl doesn’t want to tell you [formal]. Perhaps she called you, but found out that you [formal] blocked….. her…..”

His voice was getting smaller as he said the last few words. Seeing that the smile on Fifth Master’s face was getting gentler, Lu Xingzhou immediately lowered his head and did not dare to utter a sound.

“Oh, tell me, when did I block her?” Fifth Master Lu’s tone was very genial.

Lu Xingzhou immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum, but he silently criticized him. Fifth Master, this was clearly a lie. Wasn’t it because Fifth Master blocked me before that I had to stay in that shooting location for more than half a month and dare not return to Jiang City?! Moreover, wasn’t it also because the girl saw that you blocked her that she didn’t attempt to call you anymore?!

However, Fifth Master Lu could care less about what Lu Xingzhou was thinking. He closed his eyes and pondered over it and suddenly felt that him waiting for a month was truly laughable. That little rabbit was having fun playing outside and even forgot about the master who raised her. When something bad happened, anyone could recall about him, and yet she didn’t contact him at all. Her courage really had fattened up!

Hence, that very night, Siyu who had just returned to the hotel after shooting and was getting ready to wash and sleep, suddenly got a text message. The one who sent the message was someone who she specially marked as “The Psycho Great Devil” and there was only one sentence in it: “I give you one minute to come down to the hotel’s entrance.”
