and they were her apprentices?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Xuejun really wanted to ask if the two of them had been beaten into submission by Xia Weibao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, with such fame, why would they take someone as their master?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then again, when it came to Xia Weibao, the impossible always seemed possible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her personal charm was just too great!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the matter was settled, Xia Weibao and Zhuang Xuejun discussed the details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then they went to the hotel to see Xia Shi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corrosive power of sulfuric acid was too terrifying, and the injuries were very severe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was too inconvenient here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyways, since they weren’t shooting the film any longer, staying here was pointless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, they all set off to return to the capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Xia Shi’s wounds, Xia Weibao prepared a new ointment for her, which allowed for faster recovery and less pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared at Xia Shi’s pockmarked face for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Xia Shi, may I ask you a rather sensitive question?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ask.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your face… what destroyed it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the scars, it seemed they were also caused by corrosion, and then new flesh grew out, resulting in the uneven skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Shi went stiff for a moment, her voice turning colder, “It was ruined by accident.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She obviously didn’t want to talk about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Xia Shi, please don’t misunderstand, I’m not bringing up your painful past on purpose, I just want to say that I can help you get rid of these scars.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Shi suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with doubt and surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she regained her composure, “No need, I’m quite alright with this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, beauty is a sin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to be ruined, at least that way one can live in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao wanted to say more, but Xia Shi seemed reluctant to continue the conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t push further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps, there was an untouchable scar behind that face as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could only wait for a more appropriate time in the future to treat her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That evening, when Xia Weibao returned home, she sat on the couch, hugged her knees, and stared blankly ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang was in the study dealing with some official business, and when he came back to the room, he saw her spacing out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Downcast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked over, “What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Weibao glanced at him expressionlessly, then continued to stare blankly ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Director Lu, do you also think that I am too weak?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Hualiang frowned, considering everything that had happened recently, she was probably feeling self-reproach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Those things are not your fault, don’t take the blame upon yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No!” Xia Weibao’s eyes slowly came into focus with determination, “I am too weak!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was because she was too weak that she couldn’t protect the people around her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were strong enough, no one would dare to bully her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were strong enough, no one would dare to harm her friends!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Xuejun, a delicate girl, had stood up for her twice, even going so far as to tarnish her own reputation to clear Weibao’s name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then there was Xia Shi, who put herself in danger to protect her, suffering sulfuric acid burns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Zhuang Xuejun to Xia Shi, it was the friends around her who were protecting her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made her deeply realize that it was her own lack of strength!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking back on the past few months since she had crossed over, she had suffered so many slanders and smears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those people targeted her because they saw her as easy prey, climbing over her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let them try to smear Lu Hualiang and see who dares, who has the courage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, it was because she was too weak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were a person everyone looked up to, then no one would dare to arbitrarily sling mud at her, and certainly, no one would dare to touch her friends!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the girl’s determined gaze, filled with a sharp edge, Lu Hualiang’s eyes narrowed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly remembered what the psychologist had said, that once she adapted to her current life and saw the reality clearly, she would grow up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that Zhuang Xue’s experiences and Xia Shi’s self-sacrifice were forcing her to grow up.\u003C\u002Fp>",717,"2026-06-06T16:22:09.235Z",1,"novelbin.me","803667c866e0ddbad73abdcd64c67770b4555cbf8b86a8e0b7dc4b632ff419c2","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-615","plagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-chapter-613",1766,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fplagued-by-bad-reviews-but-the-top-actress-cover.jpg"]
