Chapter 748: Chapter 747: Cut Off_1 Chapter 748: Chapter 747: Cut Off_1 As soon as she got into the nanny car, Qiao Xiaren received a phone call.
It turned out to be from Li, the demon head.
“Director Li, may I ask what’s the matter?” Qiao Xiaren asked gently. She always had a special feeling towards Li Li. The first play she was in after rebirth always left a deep impression.
Moreover, her relationship with Li, the demon head, was not bad.
“Xiaren, I suppose you’ve seen ‘Empress Lan’. It’s airing at the same time as your ‘Demon Flame’. We make TV dramas to win approval from the audience. So, after airing in the same slot this time, I hope you’re not resentful of me, this old fellow, huh?”
Li Li said this half-jokingly while Qiao Xiaren replied calmly, “Demon Head, you’re overthinking it. Our friendship is one thing, but I won’t back down from this competition. We’ll see who’s the donkey and who’s the horse.”
Upon hearing Qiao Xiaren’s words, Li Li let out a hearty laugh, “That’s great, Xiaren, I won’t hold back then.”
“Who will be defeated, is still uncertain, Demon Head. Let’s see.”
Qiao Xiaren laughed lightly on the other end. Her face, naturally radiant, remained calm and steady.
Li Li suddenly felt competitive, like he had finally met a worthy opponent.
“Alright, let’s fight!”
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Xiaren felt something was off.
Not Li Li, but Liu Ou.
She keenly noticed that Liu Ou seemed to be copying her style.

This time, although Liu Ou’s character, Qingfei, was not a Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience.
Qiao Xiaren became alert, she could not underestimate the competition this time.
Topics about ‘Empress Lan’ continued to trend on Weibo, even the trailer had been released. The style was true to Li, the demon head, torturing viewers. Liu Ou’s scenes were cut in a way to elicit utmost sympathy, creating a potential shift in viewers’ attitudes towards her.
Of course, it was a minor shift at best.
After all, she once sparked public outcry due to a scandal about being a mistress. It’s almost impossible for people to forget such a deed in this world.
That was to Qiao Xiaren’s advantage.
Qiao Xiaren had initially been criticized for her acting, but that was easy to overcome. But Liu Ou, well, that was another story.
“Darling, I really want to say something about Li, the demon head’s TV drama.” Weini couldn’t help but comment, “This Qingfei is actually a mistress! The author must have a weird sense of humor. There’s a twenty-year age gap between the leads. When they met, the male lead’s child was the same age as Qingfei. No matter how deep the love or how tragic the story, it can’t erase the fact that she’s a mistress.”
Qiao Xiaren nodded, “This novel is a bestseller from ten years ago. Back then, people enjoyed tortured love stories, no matter how torturous. Now with our perspective, it’s quite questionable. But it’s still a classic. I should thank Li, the demon head, for getting Liu Ou to play Qingfei. I assure you, I will make her life miserable.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xiaren stretched out her finger in the shape of a gun and fired an imaginary shot forward.
With a touch of madness in her gaze, a hint of wicked charm twinkled in her eyes.
