Chapter 1097: Conflict of Interest
Pan Yan was also relieved as he watched the online opinion being turned around.
However, he was not in a good mood.
With his current resources, he quickly figured out who was trying to make trouble.
“Who is it?” Xia Xibei asked.
“Guess.”
Pan Yan’s expression was not very good.
“Cheng Yingni?”
“You know?”
He was surprised.
Xia Xibei shrugged, “According to the current situation, there shouldn’t be anyone but her who would do this to me!”
Actually, she was just guessing, but no one but Cheng Yingni would do that.
Everyone knew that people like her were too fierce and would retaliate powerfully every time!
After a few instances, everyone knew that if there was no direct and powerful evidence to damage her, they shouldn’t mess around with her.
If so, they would not get her down. Instead, she could rise up with the opportunity.
Multiple experiences had taught them this lesson: don’t mess around.
This was something domestic artists all basically understood.
Those who had been famous for a long time had no conflict of interest with her, and there was no need for them to engage in such things.
The only one who had a conflict of interest with her and who didn’t understand her power was Cheng Yingni, who just came back from abroad not too long ago.
Moreover, Cheng Yingni had tried to portray herself as a cat lover, and Xia Xibei was then accused as an abuser of cats and dogs. It was the exact opposite.
This was a strong contrast and a clear attack on Xia Xibei.
Cheng Yingni also stole her role…
After all this, it would be silly if Xia Xibei still could not figure out who it was.
In fact, Xia Xibei and Cheng Yingni’s professional images overlapped a bit.
When Cheng Yingni was in the industry before, she took the route of the national school beauty.
This was Cheng Yingni’s persona: the national daughter, the national school beauty, and the national goddess.
Moreover, although Cheng Yingni was working in the entertainment industry, she didn’t leave behind her studies.
So, it was big news when she was finally accepted to a foreign school with very good grades.
Everyone knew that she was a top student.
Now, Xia Xibei, the top student, came out of nowhere and was also the national school beauty…
Their images had overlapped!
When their professional development overlapped, their resources naturally had a conflict too.
Now there was a need for competition.
Only, Xia Xibei did not expect that Cheng Yingni would provoke her as soon as she returned.
She was too fast and too impatient, right?
Pan Yan’s expression was gloomy, “It is indeed her. I asked someone to find out, and it was her side that did it. When you were scolded by everyone, her side also sent out a press release.”
So, without much investigation, a casual glance would tell you who the beneficiary was.
It was just that Cheng Yingni’s side obviously hadn’t learned what Xia Xibei could do.
Maybe they thought that Xia Xibei could be dealt with casually, so they didn’t do much homework at all.
They didn’t even know that the dogs and cats that had “died” in the movie were all Xia Xibei’s “old friends”!
If they had used other points to attack, it might have been better.
However, they attacked her at just one point, so it took very little time to clear her name!
“Tomorrow, you’re going to participate in ‘Country Living’ and will have contact with her.”
Pan Yan looked at his schedule with a bit of a worried expression.
“When the time comes, I don’t know what tricks she will play.”
“What are you afraid of?” Xia Xibei laughed. “Country… It’s the wilderness, right? That is my territory.”
Looking at Xia Xibei’s confident look, Pan Yan also slowly relaxed.
Since she said it was no problem, it was absolutely no problem.
The next day, everyone arrived at the filming location.
