Delicate mother of a villian - Chapter 122
Chapter of the day!
Xia An’s luck continued to rise while Xia Jing’s continued to be bad.
Compared with the first time she participated in the ‘Mom is back’ show, the second one was not so bad.
At least life was not so hard.
Even if the living standards in the program had gone up a bit, those public opinions on the Internet did not disperse!
In particular, people speculated that Xia An and the program was blocked because of Xia Jing.
Xia Jing’s good image collapsed a little bit. At this time, even if she was blocked, Xia An was still popularly discussed on the internet.
Some time ago, a video of Xia Jing scolding the show team employee got on the internet.
At this time, although there were still many black things on Xia An after “Come on Challenger” was stopped, there was a large number of netizens who were arguing for Xia An.
After the show was stopped, all the netizens concentrated all their grievances on her.
[Xia Jing! Leave the entertainment industry!】
[This kind of entertainment show isn’t proper for Mrs. Fu!】
[It’s so good to be a rich person, they could block whoever upset them.】
[What’s so good about ‘Mom is back’, ‘Come on Challenger’ is a hundred times better than it!】
…
Originally, the “Mom is back” program group thought that if Xia Jing came to participate in their show for the new season, that would increase the ratings and it would be popular. Alas, even before the broadcast of the first issue on TV started, the show was trending but for negative reasons!
Especially Xia Jing, this woman was a torture. It was torture to shoot the show with her!
Now their program team had not only served Xia Jing, but also did the public relations for her.
Xia An also had a negative image online, but at least she was professional and not that hard to serve.
After finishing the second issue of “Mom is Back”, when Xia Jing with Fu Anqi returned home, she found that many netizens on the Internet were scolding her.
Anger filled Xia Jing’s breath. She had suffered a lot in the countryside and had a lot of anger in her.
So when she saw a lot of people scolding her on the Internet and even stepping on her, this anger soared. Even so, Xia Jing, who was stubborn, still read all the comments about her on the Internet.
When she finished, she found something that terrified her.
No, it was merely a comment that terrified her.
[Strange, I don’t know why Mrs. Fu seems familiar.】
[Familiar +1, I feel like I have seen this Mrs. Fu somewhere.】
[Well, I also think this Mrs. Fu seems kind of familiar.】
…
In the comments, there were some that said she seemed familiar as if they had seen her somewhere before. Xia Jing’s face suddenly turned pale.
Although, these comments weren’t scolding her, nor pulling out Xia An to compare with her, the look on her face was uglier!
The dignified and elegant face had inexplicable panic.
“No, it’s impossible, no one will recognize …”
Xia Jing held the tablet tightly.
At this time, she regretted participating in the program to compete with Xia An!
The good days of recent years made her too proud, so she forgot her bad ones. She forgot the fact that before she was Xia Jing, she had another identity …
Xia Jing’s bad luck seemed to be continuing.
On the other side, Xia An, who lived in the United States, lived happily all day.
Her state of mind was very good, and her vision also broadened.
She experienced a great degree of enjoyment, particularly going out and seeing places and meeting all kinds of people. Xia An’s temperament had a qualitative change.
“Oh! You look even more beautiful this time,” when the foreigner, Grace, saw Xia An again, he complimented her.
Xia An felt that the great director was exaggerating.
It had only been a week since they last met. How could there be such a big change?
She herself didn’t notice a change in her temperament. Han Yue and Xu Dao who met with Xia An almost every day did not notice it. After all, in their mind, Xia An was always beautiful, so they were not as keen as Grace.
“Thank you!” Xia An smiled.
“Ann, have you finished reading the entire script?” Grace went straight into the subject very professionally.
“Well, after reading it, I think Joan is a great character. It really feels like me, but I’m not as good as Joan,” Xia An whispered with a smile.
After reading the entire script, Xia An got relieved. Joan’s character resembled her, especially with her background. This double familiarity made her more confident.
Confident enough to work in this movie.
“Haha, Ann, you are too modest. In my eyes, you are as good as Joan, you are both brave and strong intelligent women.”
Xia An pursed her lips and smiled.
She was not modest. She was just an ordinary girl with a sharp memory who could not be ordinary in the apocalyptic days. She had to become a brave and strong woman like Joan because of various things.
And these were all ‘cheats’ from her powers, not inborn like Joan’s.
“How’s it? Are you confident playing the role?”
Grace relaxed looking at Xia An’s smile. He already knew in his heart, Xia An must be able to play this role.
“Well, I am,” Xia An nodded with a smile, and said with confidence.
Recently, she not only read the script, but also asked for a professional with some acting knowledge. She also tried to act herself.
Although she was still not perfect, with her strong memory, she could learn acting, and play the role well.
“Okay then. Next week, you will officially join the group. I think it’s time we also promoted our heroine ~”
…
Xia An did not expect Grace to be a hyperactive person.
The next day the international media was advertising the movie that she was about to play.
She did not expect a foreign director as Grace to have such a big influence.
They announced the movie “Return to Earth” on the official website with the revelation of some of the actors.
All major media in China released this information as soon as possible.
[International director Grace’s “Return to Earth” officially announced all actors and actresses. Joan, an important character, is reportedly a role done by a mysterious Asian.】
[The heroine of “Return to Earth” is a foreigner leading actress.】
…
Because Grace’s films had always been very marketable, it spread fast.
The film “Return to Earth” didn’t reveal much. But there were still many people who looked forward to it.
In particular, the role of the heroine Joan in this movie was rumored to be a black-eyed Asian person. It had attracted the attention of all Asians.
Of course, there was another important reason that it had attracted much attention. This was the fierce competition in the major frontline actresses in Asia for this role since big actresses met Grace for the role.
Therefore a film which had not even begun filming had been very popular in Asian countries.
Now that the news came that this high-profile movie had finally found a heroine, made the entire Asian network boil!
Not to mention that Japan, South Korea and other Asian countries were narcissistic thinking that the heroine Joan who was personally sought by Director Grace was the actress of their country.
On the internet, there was a great argument about which female star won Joan’s role and which female star was suitable for this role .
Of course, not only the crowds, even the big and small actresses were guessing about the female star playing the heroine in Hollywood for the first time in Asian history.

I think I know where the Xia Jing plot is going and if it’s what I think it is I want to know how the original female lead was even allowed to be a protagonist. I find myself questioning that a lot with these villain revenge stories though.

As an Asian, I’d just be proud lmao even if we’re not the same kind

The nationalism was strong in this chapter. But tbh, I’m kinda numb to it bc the country I live in (America) is arguably the worst when it comes to blind patriotism. 🤭🤫
It is lowkey jarring to read of antiasian sentiment in Hollywood (from the hyperselective casting to the homogenization of a continent of cultures) from the POV of a Chinese novel though. 🧐🤔

Really, blind patriotism, well you can always leave, there’s millions that want your place

‘Not to mention that Japan, South Korea and other Asian countries were narcissistic thinking that the heroine Joan who was personally sought by Director Grace was the actress of their country.’
Sure, and no-one in China was thinking it was a Chinese artist. The pot-shots taken at whole countries always tend to spoil the enjoyment of the story a bit, they could at least say ‘all the Asian countries’ rather than obtusely claiming their own country as superior, all countries have good and bad, there is no true ‘best’ country. You do notice it particularly in countries that have been at war for ages (regardless of the current situation) of course. Though the England/France one is kinda weird.

Absolutely agree with you. But we need to remember that this is a Chinese author and some of them have that mentality brainwashed by their dictator.
The best way to enjoy it is to block those unnecessary comments from out heads. 😔

Yeah but I see this kind of thing from chinese, korean and japanese novels. Asian people in general (or at least these three countries) tend to be strongly nacionalists, so maybe it’s just something more cultural than government influence (although that’s probably a major influence too).
