Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day

Chapter 33: Short Video

Amidst the scolding on Weibo, a cacophony of different voices slowly appeared.

[Seems like the Heavenly Spirit Princess doesn't appear often...]

[I just saw the scenes list. Lisa really did finish filming most of the Heaven Spirit Princess's scenes already.]

Some logical fans of the original novel had also come up with a comparison between the scenes in the original novel and scenes from the drama, confirming that Lisa had indeed filmed most of her scenes.

[What the f*ck? You guys still have the mood to discuss this? I'm shocked by the video.]

[Me too... Is that Lisa? I suddenly feel like there's no need to replace her.]

[Me too...]

[AHHHHHHHH! She's so pretty! I take back my words. Don't replace her!]

Originally, it was just a trending topic that was occupied by fans of the novel. As the rankings slowly rose, many passers-by also started to talk about it.

The top trending topic was the Weibo account that strongly accused the production team of "The Long Ballad" of indulging Xia Wanyuan in slacking off and demanding a replacement.

While the second most popular topic was the video that was released by the production team.

With a curious heart, the passers-by on Weibo wanted to see what the production team had done to make the fans so angry that they demanded a replacement.

Fifteen seconds later.

F*ck!

Why were they asking for a replacement?!!! Were these people crazy?

The video was only fifteen seconds long. It was obvious that it was an unedited film.

On the long street, lanterns of all colours were arranged on both sides of the city, and pedestrians were everywhere.

Enshrouded by the waning light, Lalisa, who was wearing a light purple dress, stood up. She held a rabbit lamp in her hand as she walked toward the camera.

Slim-waisted with somewhat sloping shoulders, and she had a slender neck that accentuated her lithe figure. The lantern cast a layer of warm light on her body, and her whole body was surrounded by a heart-stirring indifference and elegance, like a lotus blooming alone under the moonlight, leisurely and refreshing.

[Geez, fans nowadays are really hard to please.]

A small group of passers-by began to speak up for Lisa.

[Yes, she's pretty, but with Lisa's acting skills, will she be able to act as the Heavenly Spirit Princess?]

Seeing that public opinion was slowly changing, some professional accounts started to change their argument. What was the use of being pretty? Her bad acting skills would still destroy the character.

[That's right. Look at her eye-piercing acting. She was like a picture in JPG format. No matter how pretty she looks, she's just a pretty face.]

[At least she has a pretty face. Let's see if she can act well after the drama is out.]

The netizens could not help but click on the short video again.

'Oh my, she's really pretty. She has a strong aura too.'

However, the past photos and videos of Lisa were still clearly displayed in the comments. It was hard to imagine how such a good-looking person could act so stiffly.

[Forget it, based on this face and appearance, I won't scold her for the time being. We'll talk about it after the drama is released.]

The comments were chaotic, but they were no longer filled with insults. Although the majority of the comments were still sceptical, people were reluctantly honest.

Within just one hour, the video was played three million times.

A short video was sent to the WeChat group called "Four Great Generals".

"Hey, look at this video my girlfriend sent me. This is the actress who played the Heavenly Spirit Princess. She's my goddess!"

In the dormitory where they were all quietly lying on their beds and playing with their new computers, Zhang Zhe's roar broke the silence.

"The Long Ballad" was adapted from a novel written for males, so the audience was mostly male. The two female characters in the original novel were naturally regarded as goddesses by many men.

And in this dormitory, other than Yang Lin, everyone else had read this novel before. Beomgyu knew that Lisa was going to act in the drama, so he had specially downloaded the novel to read a few days before.

"Holy f*ck! Who is this?! I declare! She's my goddess from now on!"

"This is the Heavenly Spirit Princess I've imagined all my life! Goddamn, she's beautiful! I can look at her a hundred times!"

No matter how much hatred was stirred among the fans, liking someone was just so simple and straightforward for straight men.

Beomgyu heard what they said and clicked on the video with a look of disdain. A look of surprise flashed past his eyes. 'This woman actually looks pretty good in ancient clothes.'

"I think she's so-so," Beomgyu remarked mercilessly.

"Wow! Beomgyu, your expectations are too high! How can she be 'so-so'? She is practically a pretty face that only appears once in five thousand years!"

"Beomgyu, I'm telling you. You can scold me, but you can't insult my goddess. Come out and fight!"

"Tsk, childish," Beomgyu scoffed. However, he was secretly overjoyed by the praises given to Lisa by his roommates.
