Quick Transmigration: The Villain Boss is a Bit Cute - Chapter 110
Chapter 110
Lu Yunche had been popular for four years, but two years after the female lead’s rebirth, his career started to go downhill.
By now, aside from some hate from black fans keeping his name in the conversation, he barely had any fans left.
In truth, Lu Yunche hadn’t done anything particularly wrong—he was just a bit arrogant.
But as the saying goes, “Give a dog a bad name and hang him.”
Moreover, Lu Yunche was one of the few in the industry who kept his hands clean and never resorted to shady deals.
So, when Yu Yue set him up, many people took the opportunity to kick him while he was down, and not a single person lent a hand to help.
First, rumors spread that Lu Yunche had a bad temper offstage and was completely different behind the scenes.
Then came stories of him acting like a big shot, driving under the influence, and swearing at people. His popularity slowly diminished, and his reputation grew worse by the day.
Some of Lu Yunche’s rival male stars even began to spread baseless rumors, further tarnishing his image.
Around this time, several actresses who had worked with Lu Yunche came forward, accusing him of forcibly forming a CP with them in fake romances and then cutting ties once the hype died down, with support from the Leng Group behind the scenes.
Suddenly, Lu Yunche became hated in the entertainment industry.
He was blacklisted by all the major companies, effectively banned.
Some brands still considered taking a risk—after all, even negative attention was attention, and Lu Yunche, though hated, was still talked about.
They thought about having him endorse their products, but this led to massive backlash online.
For example, Lu Yunche’s latest Weibo post, which promoted a clothing brand, triggered an online uproar, with netizens vowing never to buy from the brand again.
As a result, Lu Yunche was effectively blacklisted, with no work coming his way.
“The female lead is totally brainless! The ones who ruined her life were those few investors and directors. Lu Yunche didn’t even know her, but just because he starred in that drama, he ended up like this!”
“Whoever dares bully this goddess, I’ll teach them a lesson they won’t forget!”
Su Hua glanced at the comments, closed Weibo, and made a call to Director Luo.
“Miss Gu, what can I do for you?” Director Luo answered.
“Replace Yu Yue. I’ll add another 20 million to the investment,” Su Hua got straight to the point.
Director Luo was stunned.
“This… why so sudden?”
“Do you agree or not?”
“Of course, I’ll do as Miss Gu says.”
After all, Yu Yue was just a second-tier actress, and with an extra 20 million, he could easily hire a first-tier, or even a top-tier, actress.
Since the shoot had just started, scrapping the earlier scenes wouldn’t result in much loss anyway.
“Good. Replace her, and I’ll transfer the money shortly.”
After hanging up, Su mentally instructed, “De’er, send me a 20 million task.”
“…”Shouldn’t I be happy that my host is willingly spending money?
[Ding! Random Task: Spend 20 million within an hour. The money has been transferred to your account. Please confirm.]
“You’re actually pretty useful,” Su Hua praised.
I’ve always been useful!
After transferring the money to Director Luo, Su Hua logged back onto Weibo and began replying to all the hate comments that were trending.
“Are you brain-dead? If you don’t want to see his posts, then stop using Weibo and your phone! If you’re sick, go get treatment instead of seeking attention here.”
“Why don’t you go die! What did Lu Yunche ever do to you? He didn’t scam you out of your money or break your heart. Why are you so worked up? Who the hell do you think you are?”
“Leave the entertainment industry? Haha, no, I won’t! I’ll make sure you keep seeing news about him until it drives you crazy!”
“Feeling all high and mighty? If you’re so great, why don’t you go get him blacklisted? I just love how you hate him but can’t do a damn thing about it.”
Su Hua responded to each comment with a perfect manner and a good temper.
De’er: “…Where’s the perfect manner and good temper here?”
Carrying a bag of instant noodles, Lu Yunche returned home, hearing his phone buzzing continuously.
He assumed it was just more hate messages from fans but was stunned when he checked and saw something else.
The goddess Hua? Is that Gu Hua?
Thinking back to his earlier encounter with Gu Hua, Lu Yunzhe felt she was different.
It wasn’t her appearance but her demeanor—especially her eyes.
Before, whenever Gu Hua looked at him, her eyes were filled with obsession, as if she wanted to devour him.
But today, her gaze was clear, calm, and devoid of any ill intent.
Wait, why was he thinking about her?
He looked at his phone again.
This user named “The Goddess Hua” was still responding to all the insults hurled at him.
A complicated look crossed his face, and he let out a sarcastic smile.
“Gu Hua, after two years, you’ve actually gotten smarter.”
She even learned to play dirty.
Su Hua, unaware of Lu Yunche’s thoughts, was still busy clapping back at netizens.
All the people she replied to quickly logged on to retaliate against her.
When they tried to leave hateful comments on Su Hua’s Weibo, they found she hadn’t posted anything, leading to wild speculation that this might be Lu Yunche’s secret account.
“Are you all brain-dead for guessing that I’m Lu Yunche’s secret account? Think with your feet, idiots!”
After an hour of verbal sparring, Su Hua finally felt a bit hungry.
“Idiots, I’ve got things to do. I’ll be back to curse at you next time.”
Netizens: “…”
Leave if you want; no need to announce it like we’re old friends or something!
Thanks to Su Hua’s tirade, Lu Yunche, who hadn’t been in the news for a while, found himself trending again—this time at the tenth spot on the trending list. Both celebrities and netizens were dumbfounded.
Was this even possible?
The next day.
After being out of work for a while, Lu Yunche finally got a call from his agent.
“It’s not a major production, but at least it’s a job. What do you think?”
Recalling a month of rejection, Lu Yunche agreed, “Sure, when do we start shooting?”
“I’ll send you the location this afternoon. You can head over by yourself.”
That afternoon, Su Hua ran into Lu Yunche again.
When Lu Yunche saw Su Hua coming out of the building, he recalled the renovation noises from the past few weeks and realized what had been going on.
“I… I really didn’t know you lived here,” Su Hua nervously raised three fingers in a gesture of sincerity.
Lu Yunche said nothing and turned to walk toward the elevator.
Su Hua quickly followed.
As they waited for the elevator, Su Hua glanced at Lu Yunche.
His lips were pressed into a thin line, clearly indicating he had no intention of talking.
“Um, Lu Yunche, can I try pursuing you again?” Su Hua asked tentatively.
“Heh.”
Lu Yunche couldn’t help but let out a mocking laugh.
The fox’s tail finally showed itself. “How? By drugging me like before?”
Su Hua groaned inwardly, but there was no avoiding it.
She had to own up to her past mistakes.
“I’m really sorry about what happened before. I was young and foolish back then,” Su Hua said sincerely, looking him in the eye.
“What do I need to do to make it up to you?”
After a pause, she added, “Except staying away from you.”
Lu Yunche was left speechless, unable to come up with a response.
Ding.
They entered the elevator.
From beside him came a soft voice, “So, can I pursue you again? In a proper way this time.”
For some reason, Lu Yunche found himself replying, “Fine.”
