Damn it, with Xia Weibao’s acting skills, if “Allure” didn’t become a hit, he would join that idiot Leng Yan in running around the Imperial City with his pants down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huashan was still not giving up and tried to withdraw her hand to slap Xia Weibao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she found herself firmly restrained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister, do you really think I want to steal your man?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light words spilled from Xia Weibao’s lips, like a wisp of smoke, bringing heartache to those who smelled it and tears to those who heard it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huashan was intimidated by her sorrowful eyes and even forgot to say her lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cut!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jiayang abruptly stood up, “Huashan, what are you daydreaming about? Don’t bring your personal emotions into filming. That’s the most basic discipline of an actor!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take a break and we’ll continue with the scene from just now after lunch.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jiayang felt some frustration, like iron not turning into steel. Such a perfect moment, ruined by Huashan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the first half of the scene was usable. They could just cut and edit later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked over to Lu Huashan, “Adjust your emotions properly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still very satisfied with Huashan. Hardworking, ambitious, and talented. She didn’t have beauty or background, yet she made a place for herself in the entertainment industry—such people were rare nowadays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected this kind of situation today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was truly disappointing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Huashan was being rebuked for the first time, her face flushed with red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yi quickly came over to comfort her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao took a long look at Lu Huashan, feeling that her features seemed vaguely familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Xiang Chu popped up from nowhere with two big bags in his hands, flashing a goofy smile at Xia Weibao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao was somewhat surprised. Just as someone handed her a boxed lunch, she sat down to eat it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, I said I would visit the set, and you actually forgot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a bit of melancholy in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao felt as if she were looking at her Imperial Harem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In those days, if her Beloved Concubines didn’t see her for too long, they also acted coquettishly like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Majesty, you haven’t visited your concubine in so long~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alas, the past was not worth recalling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master, what are you eating? Look, I brought you something delicious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Chu said, eagerly taking out the food containers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His master, with her otherworldly aura, how could she eat boxed lunches that only cost ten yuan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for eating, Xia Weibao wasn’t particularly picky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, she had grown tired of all the delicacies in the Imperial Harem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze fell upon the other bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re some snacks, duck necks, chicken feet, spicy strips, and the like. I bought them for my….” dog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are they tasty?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On hearing the word ‘snacks’, Xia Weibao’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She often saw various snacks online that seemed delicious, but there were none in Lu Garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And she didn’t have any money to buy them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her eyes sparkle, Xiang Chu suddenly didn’t have the heart to say these were his pet’s dog treats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His dog had a rather unique taste, enjoying spicy food, so he often bought them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tasty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can I try some?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao stared at the packets of spicy strips, nearly drooling at the thought of how delicious they appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiang Chu wanted to say, No!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master, you can’t compete with a dog for food!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, faced with Xia Weibao’s eager gaze, he silently took out a packet, “You can…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the sake of pleasing his master, his dog could afford to skip a few meals…\u003C\u002Fp>",690,"2026-06-06T16:21:59.440Z",1,"novelbin.me","34789ed5562ef4c94cc8ad5960164873bcd48fd73627f91e496f025509e4063c","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-109","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-107",1766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fplagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-cover.jpg"]
