Chapter 24: 23. Trending again Chapter 24: 23. Trending again Others might have been confused by these words, but Shen Xianglin, who knew about dicine, heard the critical point.
“Tangtang, you threw herbs in there, didn’t you? Were they for numbing the nerves?”
Tang Shu shook her head, “It’s Coiling Grass, it releases a unique fishy sll in water, and that’s what lured the fish over.”
Everyone suddenly understood and praised her in admiration.
“Tangtang, do you also know traditional Chinese dicine?!”
Tang Shu pondered for a mont, “I’m a student of the traditional Chinese dicine departnt.”
“So that’s why! I was wondering why Director Lin had such insight this ti, it must have been because he knew you were skilled in dicine that he invited you over!”
“Exactly!”
A few people seed to have guessed the truth, however, behind the cara, Director Lin was a ss in the wind.
He didn’t!
He hadn’t!
He had no idea at all!
Zeng Xiumin heard this and scoffed disdainfully, turning her face away.
“We’re in for a sumptuous lunch today! Finally, we don’t have to eat the compressed biscuits from our backpacks~~~~”
Although no one would go hungry on these adventures, given the chance, who wouldn’t want to satisfy their appetite, right?
Before long, everyone was given two cleaned fish each, roughly one or two pounds apiece, enough to fill everyone up.
“I’ve brought a small pack of salt, I’ll share it with everyone in a bit.”
As Yin Dong spoke, he headed towards his backpack. When he turned around, he caught sight of Tang Shu holding two bags.
One bag of fine salt, one bag of cumin.
He: “…”
Oh no, turns out she’s a seasoned outdoor traveler!
Zeng Xiumin, seeing this, let out a light snicker and said with a sweet smile, “Sister Tang’s manager is really well-prepared, even bringing cumin. Is she treating this like a camping trip?”
How co, when everyone is a guest perforr, the treatnt of these two is so different?
She’s just an obscure newbie, yet she wants to climb up by stepping on others?
Don’t even think about it!
Geng Qiuqiu paused in her fish-grilling, sending a mockingly amused glance her way.
“Miss Zeng, if we talk about camping, you seem to be the most suitable, looking as if you’re ready to go shopping. According to what you just said, doesn’t that an your manager is incompetent? Perhaps it’s ti for a change?”
She was aware that female artists tend to have lots of issues. Therefore, as long as the other party didn’t cause trouble, she was usually easy-going. But this one…
She had been patient all morning, and yet she was still so troubleso, it really hit her breaking point.
Zeng Xiumin was clearly choked up, her face turning from green to black then back to green again and again.
“I… I believe she didn’t do it on purpose.”
“Is that so?”
Geng Qiuqiu’s eyes filled with disdain. Even at this point, still thinking about pushing her manager out as a scapegoat, how capable.
The other team mbers shook their heads and sped up their work.

At noon, while everyone was eating and regaining their strength, a hot search about Tang Shu had climbed into the top five on the internet, threatening to explode.
When the company assistant called Sister Luo, this hot topic had already attracted many netizens.
[Exposing how newcor Tang Shu edged out top-tier star Mu Ziwei!]
[Shock! Mu Ziwei steps aside for a newcor, who is the mysterious backer behind Tang Shu?]
The flood of social dia articles about Tang Shu elbowing out Mu Ziwei during the recording of “Happy Together” blasts into the eyes of netizens, even fiercer than yesterday’s wave.
“Has there been news about Tang Shu suppressing Mu Ziwei for two days now, is it mostly true?”
“Honestly, I saw several articles like this yesterday and didn’t take them seriously at first. But today, there are still so; this can’t all be unfounded, right?”
“Even a top actress like Mu Ziwei got replaced by her, could it be fake? There must be soone behind it, and maybe it’s a big shot!”
“Feeling pity for our Ziwei, she worked hard and struggled with her ability for so many years, and now she is suppressed by a newcor with just one work. Where is the justice?”
“You people in the entertainnt industry really know how to play, this ti I’ve learned sothing.”
“Let Tang Shu roll out of the entertainnt industry, her portrayal of the innocent white lotus is disgusting, she’s bullying others with her power, such a person is a cancer when they co out.”
“Roll out of the entertainnt industry!”
“Roll out of the entertainnt industry 1!”
…
The comnts from netizens were rational at first but gradually beca uncontrollable, until at last, countless people were shouting for Tang Shu to leave the entertainnt industry.
When Sister Luo followed the trending searches and saw the unified comnts, she knew soone had bought an army of bots to thoroughly stir up the waters.
“Our Tang Shu is a newcor, and she’s been low-key even on set. Who could she have possibly offended?”
Sister Luo was puzzled, knowing the only people familiar with Tang Shu were those from the drama crew. It surely couldn’t be the top-notch Mu Ziwei suppressing the little newcor, could it?
After all, it was Mu Ziwei who gave up “Happy Together” herself!
By around noon, the trending search was pushed up two places again due to a clever move by Mu Ziwei, becoming the third hottest search.
“Sister Luo, Sister Luo! Mu Ziwei has made a move!”
Over the phone, Xiao Li was livid, almost wanting to devour the person involved through the internet.
“Did she kick soone when they were down?”
“Mu Ziwei liked a comnt from netizens that read “Tang Shu, roll out of the entertainnt industry”… Huh? She’s co out and clarified, saying it was a slip of the hand.”
Sister Luo sat up straight, unconsciously gripping her phone tight.
“When did she like the comnt?”
“In less than a minute before and after!”
No sooner had the assistant finished speaking than Sister Luo knew the tune she was playing.
“Ha! Coming out to clarify so soon just confirms that Tang Shu has soone backing her.”
“Why do you say that, she clarified quite quickly, didn’t she?”
“It’s precisely because she clarified so quickly that the netizens will think it is because of the identity of the person behind Tang Shu that she chose to do it.”
“…Can it really be like that?!”
The assistant was sowhat unable to accept this, a simple misstep of liking a comnt and it could be construed as part of so many conspiracies and tricks?
Wuwuwu, the entertainnt circle is too scary, is it too late for him to resign?
After hanging up the phone, Sister Luo opened Mu Ziwei’s Weibo and browsed through it, her mind gradually becoming clearer.
“You’ve been guiding public opinion intentionally before the variety show aired, right? So many fans asking you to co out and tell the truth about not attending the recording, and you don’t say a word, instead, you respond with a like?”
She was well versed in this ga!
Having been in the entertainnt industry for so long, if she couldn’t see through these little scheming tricks, Sister Luo would doubt whether all her years there had been in vain.
“Mu Ziwei… Wang Zheng?”
As she thought this, her eyes lit up slightly, as if she had grasped the key point, and she imdiately made a call to the assistant director of “Happy Together.”
“Hello? Old classmate, I want to ask you about sothing…”
anwhile, many new dia professionals, seeing Mu Ziwei’s move, seed to sll sothing in the air, one after another editing their copy, hoping to win the attention of netizens at the first opportunity.
