Suddenly, she encountered an accident, and once she passed through the book, she became an 18th-line cannon fodder female supporting role that is popular on the Internet, and she is still a fake daughter who is not as good as the heroine in the book.

Black fan: Our Feifei’s acting skills crushed Shiran!

The next day, Shiran’s first drama aired, and the seven-second shot became popular on the Internet, overshadowing the lead actress Shi Wenfei.

After that, the momentum was like a broken bamboo, and he won the best actress trophy in one fell swoop.

Black fan: Our Feifei sings well and can write lyrics, so what?

Top Streamer: To win the Best Golden Melody Award this time, I am most grateful to my gold medalist composer @时然.

Black fans:! ! !

One day when Shiran was broadcasting live, black fans frantically poured in, and the barrage of abuse filled the barrage.

Black fan: Our Feifei is engaged to the young master of the Zhou family! The fiancé is tall, rich and handsome and still dotes on her, unlike you, no one loves you!

“Honey, where are my things?”

The man’s deep and magnetic voice silenced the barrage.

In the next second, a man with a monstrous appearance appeared in front of the camera.

Everyone was shocked!

It turned out to be Chu Jinchen, the future patriarch of the first family!

The man’s black eyes swept across the barrage, pretending to be puzzled, “The Zhou family? I don’t know you.”

Shi Ran looked at someone in Versailles: “I’m live broadcasting.”

“How about a live broadcast that’s more interesting?” As he spoke, the man leaned closer and behaved intimately.

The audience showed their aunts and smiled.

As soon as the camera goes dark, the live broadcast is turned off.

The audience pounded on the keyboard frantically: Slam! Ask for a live broadcast!

The next day #影后公司恋情# was the top trending search.

Chu Jinchen: Baby is willing to disclose me!

Shi Ran: Are you sure you didn’t buy this hot search?
