The Trending Topic Herself: The Villainess is the Superstar!-Chapter 93: Fan Meetup

Shane Morgan spoke to all the lead actors about some points to note before the fan meeting began.

You could vaguely hear the host’s voice on stage, along with the cheers from the audience.

"Thank you all very much for attending this fan meeting; it is an honor to host this! I’m sure you’ve been eagerly awaiting our lead actors! Next, let’s invite the stars to come on stage!"

As the music played, Maya Monroe and other actors walked forward together.

Leo Lancaster stood in the center, and Maya Monroe stood next to him, barely making it as the central figure.

As the cheers and applause from the fans below sounded, Maya Monroe and the other guests waved and smiled.

The others genuinely smiled, but Maya Monroe just tugged at the corners of her mouth.

The other actors were dressed glamorously, looking radiant, whereas Maya Monroe’s attire was the most ordinary— a water-red knit top paired with simple flared jeans. It seemed less like attending a fan meeting and more like going for a walk in the park.

Yet, she was undoubtedly the most striking presence among the crowd; even the surrounding handsome men and beautiful women couldn’t overshadow her sharpness. Her slightly curled long hair casually draped over her shoulders, lazy and supple, with the dazzling water-red reflecting her porcelain-like skin, while the flared jeans accentuated her long, straight legs extending into graceful curves.

There seemed to be fans below excitedly shouting Maya Monroe’s name.

Maya Monroe instinctively moved in the direction of the nearby actress, thinking that maybe a rotten egg wouldn’t come flying next.

Kiki Monroe continued to smile at the fans below, having practiced for ages to achieve a natural yet stunning effect. She had to maintain this smile for a long time because there were countless cameras capturing, and a bad moment would produce an ugly photo.

But when she heard someone shout Maya Monroe’s name, she nearly couldn’t maintain the smile on her face; whenever she thought of Maya Monroe’s name, Kiki Monroe couldn’t help but recall the recent distressing incident.

Her gaze went in Leo Lancaster’s direction; unfortunately, she didn’t catch any expression on his face.

But Kiki Monroe knew Leo Lancaster was angry; he seemed to have grown tired of her... otherwise, why would he ignore her so many times?

The host’s voice rang out: "Hahaha, the stars have all gathered, and next, let’s have them introduce themselves."

The self-introductions started from the actor on the left, all smiling warmly, speaking softly, trying to highlight the most memorable aspects of their roles to leave a lasting impression on the fans.

Kiki Monroe held the microphone, her voice soft, with today’s makeup matching her gentle yet striking persona: "Hello everyone, I’m Kiki Monroe, playing the female lead Ashley Shaw in ’Wandering Beyond the Horizon.’ I’m so happy to meet you all..."

She emphasized her role as the female lead, and her introduction seemed less about the character and more about herself.

Shane Morgan watched from backstage, frowning: "Kiki Monroe’s ambition is a bit too intense; is she treating this as her own stage?"

Beside him, Raymond Miller said: "She is young, it’s normal to be a bit restless."

Shane Morgan snorted coldly: "Felix Price’s taste is as poor as ever!"

Raymond Miller, being an assistant director, couldn’t afford to offend either side, so he simply kept silent.

Leo Lancaster had seen such grand scenes many times before, handling them with ease, and his witty remarks elicited laughs from the audience below.

It soon came Maya Monroe’s turn.

Leo Lancaster also glanced at her along with the audience.

"I’m Maya Monroe, playing Luna." With that, she put down the microphone, unwilling to say another word.

The actor to Maya Monroe’s right was taken aback; she was still replaying her introduction in her mind when Maya Monroe finished so quickly, feeling momentarily at a loss.

The host helped energize the atmosphere, laughing: "Our Luna speaks very concisely; is there anything else you’d like to add?"

Maya Monroe didn’t even raise her eyes: "No."

Maya Monroe deliberately stepped one foot slightly forward, eyes half-closed, exuding an utterly arrogant air.

The fans’ reaction below was very intense, many of whom had watched the popular reality show ’Great Survival Challenge’ and were used to Maya Monroe’s peculiar antics. Her distinctive ’slacker events’ had won her fan followings due to her markedly different behavior compared to other artists.

If Maya Monroe had earnestly done a self-introduction to please the audience at this point, the fans would probably have found it even stranger.

Maya Monroe didn’t know what people below thought; she was wholeheartedly sticking to her ’slacker’ attitude.

The host naturally noticed the enthusiastic cheering below and smoothly switched topics: "It seems Maya Monroe is quite an interesting person! Next, let’s have Lynn Hayes do her self-introduction."

Finally, the self-introductions were finished, and Maya Monroe thought this would be the end, but was asked to sit on the stage; apparently, the interaction with chatting and games wasn’t over yet.

Maya Monroe held her breath and took her seat.

"Having seen the TV series ’Wandering Beyond the Horizon,’ the audience is very interested in your daily activities on set. Next, the big screen will display photos captured on set, hahaha, do you all still remember?"

Though claimed as candid, they were prepared by the production team in advance to create various topics.

As the big screen lit up, it began to show one photo after another, with everyone’s expressions different and doing varied activities.

"Let’s take a look first at Leo Lancaster’s, which seems like reading the script and chatting, is that right, Leo?"

Leo Lancaster smiled lightly: "Yes, the two things I do most on set are precisely those."

Next came Kiki Monroe’s, all of which featured her reading the script.

The host was quite surprised: "Is this Kiki Monroe’s routine? Strange, does Kiki have nothing else to do other than read the script?"

Kiki Monroe was waiting for just such an opportunity; her diligence attracted many, often selected as the positive image of an artist. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"The director gave me this opportunity, so I must put in all my effort to perform well in my role, never to slack off and betray the trust the crew placed in me. Additionally, I believe acting is the only treasure that can be taken from the set; the set is a great place to hone one’s acting skills. I’ve learned a lot here, and if I don’t understand something, I’ll take the script directly to... Leo... sir for advice and have gained so much."

She seemed to glance at Leo Lancaster casually.
