The Sharp-Tongued Pretty Face Is Running Wild in Chinese Showbiz

[Sharp-tongued + feel-good + plenty of secret identities for protection + sweet romance + face-slapping]

Cheng Xiaxia's company gave her a sweet, innocent image, so everyone felt free to walk all over her.

Male stars who constantly leached off her and used her for publicity, middle-aged actors who rested on their laurels, and young actresses who spoke in sugary, fake-sweet tones.

The moment Cheng Xiaxia learned her boss had run off, she completely let loose.

When reporters asked her about the rumors linking her to a male star who courted publicity,

Cheng Xiaxia smiled with gentle grace for the cameras.

“A water-injected duck of that quality? If he took even one bite of my watermelon in a KTV, I'd call the police.”

When a sleazy middle-aged male star casually made lewd jokes,

Cheng Xiaxia acted even more at a loss.

“You go after rich women first and rich men next. You can't hold in your pee or your shit, and your farts boom like thunder.”

She was even bolder on a livestreamed variety show, suggesting that netizens call out celebrities one by one and have their taxes checked on the spot.

Before long, Cheng Xiaxia was all over the trending searches. Everyone was saying she'd gone crazy and didn't want to stay in show business anymore.

Cheng Xiaxia's response was that if she couldn't stay in show business, she could just quit and go home to collect rent.

After all, she was not only a rich heiress, but also the beneficiary of a property demolition settlement. She had so many rents coming in that her hands were practically numb from counting the money.

Mu Haichuan left his family behind and acquired an entertainment company on the verge of bankruptcy, determined to make a name for himself through his own efforts.

The only female star in the entire company worth anything hadn't even been given a career plan or marketing strategy by him yet, and she'd already become someone everyone feared because of her sharp tongue.

Mu Haichuan could only sigh, clean up her messes, and shield her from both open attacks and hidden schemes, keeping her safe.
