Chapter 64: 63. Stunning Portrait Chapter 64: 63. Stunning Portrait Beside her, Cheng Ranran patted her small chest in assurance.
The principal in question waved the thick stack of A4 paper in her hand, “Don’t worry, with your winning strategy, what can’t be solved?”
“That’s right, eh? Why are you looking at advanced math again? This is your third day deep into mathematics!”
Cheng Ranran glanced at the book in her hand and asked casually.
But before she could get a response, her entire attention was captured by a ssage that popped up on her phone screen.
“Wow—there’s more juicy gossip to munch on!”
Juicy gossip…?
Upon hearing this term, Tang Shu inadvertently glanced over, and a familiar na caught her eye.
Mu Ziwei.
At this very mont, due to several influential bloggers publishing articles, the internet once again was hit by a storm of gossip and scandal.
The commotion started when soone discovered that Mu Ziwei, in disguise, appeared at the entrance of the Imperial Capital Court this morning at nine.
In the article, the author used a particularly interesting term.
——Coincidental encounter.
[My goodness, who could be so lucky to encounter a top-tier celebrity, and at the entrance of the Imperial Capital Court, no less!]
[Isn’t this chance too slim?]
[Hey, aren’t you all missing the point? Shouldn’t we be curious about why Mu Ziwei appeared at the court’s entrance?]
[Looking at the figure in the photo, it’s definitely Mu Ziwei, no doubts about it. Even with sunglasses on, you can recognize her, her silhouette is too distinctive.]
[Nonsense, of course she’s at the court because she’s entangled in a lawsuit. But I’m very curious, why would a female celebrity be involved in a lawsuit, is it because she terminated her contract with the company?]
[Based on past experiences, most likely that’s the case.]
…
As an artist, being involved in a lawsuit often can’t escape issues with their own agency, which is why netizens speculated as such.
Several influential bloggers did not ntion the reason Mu Ziwei went to the court, but just lightly touched on the fact, which nevertheless attracted moderate attention.
As the incident continued to fernt, the truth was revealed by many people by that evening.
Therefore, a deeper layer of interpretation suddenly surfaced on various networks.
[Shocking! Mu Ziwei entangled in a lawsuit because she took on a luxury endorsent!]
[Top-tier actress throws away endorsent product in photography studio, suffers suppression from luxury brand——]
[Endorsent company and celebrity’s negotiations broke down, let’s et in court!]
…
There are no walls in the world that don’t leak. The reason for Mu Ziwei’s appearance in court was quickly dug up by journalists, dropping jaws everywhere.
[Oh my, is this the truth!]
[Is Mu Ziwei okay, throwing away the endorsent product right in front of the company’s people? Did she lose her mind!]
[That’s disrespect to the product, and even more so to the contract between both parties; she’s lost the spirit of the contract.]
[This celebrity has quite the temper—]
[Didn’t Mu Ziwei apologize? Where’s the PR team from the company, how did it even escalate to court?]
[I’m unfollowing, I’m unfollowing, how stupid can one be to do such a thing.]
Celebrities endorsing products have certain cooperative expectations in public appearances. Even if they don’t particularly like it, they still have to put up appearances.
There really hasn’t been a celebrity who would do such a thing.
With too many negative comnts online, Mu Ziwei’s actions were quickly despised by netizens, and her fan count fell sharply.
Before long, the incident soared to the top of the real-ti trending search list. The influence of a top-tier star was not to be underestimated, drawing in waves of netizens eager to follow the scandal.
Many fans also flocked to the endorsent company’s headquarters, asking about the truth of the matter.
At this ti, the endorsent company directly posted a ssage on Weibo stating that the spokesperson for the new Yan Ming product had been determined, but made no ntion of Mu Ziwei.

By now, Tang Shu had already appeared in a photography studio in the Imperial Capital.
Today was the day for the costu photoshoot for “Heroes in Troubled Tis”.
The main the of the film was about the stories of three male leads in Chaotic World belonging to different factions, each serving their master.
Brilliant strategies and large-scale wars were the highlights of the drama, and the female assassin’s role was a hidden elent in the plot.
After reading the script, Tang Shu realized that her lines weren’t many, but she needed a strong presence; her character was an indispensable background figure.
As soon as she entered the makeup room, staff mbers ca to greet her.
“Are you the artist playing the role of Huan Ying?”
“Yes, that’s .”
Huan Ying was the na of the female assassin in the drama.
“This is the costu prepared by the crew, change into it and we’ll start shooting shortly.”
Tang Shu took the costu from the staff, and with familiar ease, opened it layer by layer and spread it out on a table to the side.
The woman who had intended to help was suddenly rooted to the spot at this scene.
“Your techniques are very experienced, have you shot many historical dramas before?”
The staff mber was stunned.
As soone who had worked in costu and props for many years and personally designed the ancient costus, she knew they were always the most difficult for actors to manage. Rarely could anyone sort out their structure clearly.
It wasn’t just because of the complex layers inside and outside of period costus, but also because they required special care when dressing. A little inattention could result in wearing them incorrectly.
As a professional in costu and props on Director Xie’s team, Sister Woon, with her many years of experience, had never seen a newcor with such in-depth knowledge of historical attire.
The person watched Tang Shu with eyes full of interest, growing more surprised and delighted as she looked.
“How long have you accumulated this experience? You look young, but I didn’t expect you to be such a pro!”
Tang Shu pinched the hem of the garnt and her expression turned awkward when she saw the delight on the woman’s face.
It would be normal for her to be familiar with this stuff.
“I… rather like Hanfu?”
That should count as a good reason.
Sister Woon smiled with understanding and her attitude toward Tang Shu did a one-eighty.
“So that’s it. Go ahead and change, and we can talk if there are any issues.”
Tang Shu nodded and entered the dressing room under the enthusiastic gaze of Sister Woon; she could feel the warmth even through the wooden door.
The costu photoshoot was a concentrated affair. By now, many veteran actors had already dressed and finished their makeup.
Director Xie, as the chief director needed to control the entire set, and had taken his place at the main spot of the photographer early on.
“Is everyone ready?”
“Ready, the first one up for shooting is Teacher Qiao.”
“Alright, let’s start shooting.”
So-called costu photoshoots, in reality, belonged to the stars.
Apart from the three veteran actors, to draw the attention of netizens, the crew had also intentionally chosen two young male actors to bring in so traffic.
Since there were so few female roles in the movie, amounting to just three, all were present today.
Two hours later, when all the main cast’s costu photos had been taken, it was the female assassin’s turn.
In front of the cara, Director Xie ticulously scribbled in a book, casually asking questions.
