Tang Qingqing's words sparked a quiet discussion among many people.

"Is this real? It's unbelievable!"

"If this is true, wouldn't she be infringing on someone's copyright? Wouldn't that be a crime punishable by imprisonment?"

"I don't think so. She's a college student; wouldn't she understand something so simple?"

"I don't think so either. Would anyone be that stupid?"

"..."

Standing on the stage, facing the doubts of the crowd, Fu Mushan tried her best to remain calm, but because of her guilty conscience, her body was trembling slightly, as was her anger at being exposed in public.

"You're talking nonsense. I can sue you for defamation if you don't have any evidence." The color drained from Fu Mushan's face, and her eyes were filled with panic.

"Tang Qingqing, I just suddenly forgot last time. It was just a supporting character. Do I need to remember it so clearly? There are so many supporting characters in my book. I can't possibly remember them all."

"But the supporting role I played wasn't a minor one; she was the third female lead!" Tang Qingqing retorted.

The third female lead has quite a lot of screen time, and there's even a major scene featuring her!

How could the third female lead be forgotten?

This made everyone look at Fu Mushan with puzzled eyes!

Fu Mushan felt a sudden panic, and her eyes became even more evasive.

"So what if she's the third female lead?"

"The third female lead isn't very good? What about the female lead? I believe Miss Fu has a deep memory of the female lead she created, right?" Huo Yanzhen asked.

"Female lead, of course I remember her." Fu Mushan forced herself to go forward. She couldn't possibly tell everyone that she wasn't familiar with the female lead at all.

"Oh? How about I ask Miss Fu a few questions?" Huo Yanzhen smiled gently, but there was a hint of ruthlessness in her smile.

Looking at Huo Yanzhen's smile, Fu Mushan felt a chill run down her spine.

But before she could agree to answer her question, Huo Yanzhen began to speak, “I believe all the actors present have read the book ‘The First Abandoned Concubine’, and some reporters also enjoy reading novels. Apart from some of the former chairmen of Huo’s Group and my brother, most of the people present are probably familiar with the book ‘The First Abandoned Concubine’.”

Because of the TV series, some people who hadn't read the novel before started reading it after watching the series, so everyone nodded in agreement with Huo Yanzhen's words.

"I've seen them all."

"I started reading it later, and I haven't finished it yet, but I've already read up to the extra chapters."

"I just started watching it, is it good or not?"

"It's super good, I really love the female lead."

"Most novels are meant to entertain children, but this novel is actually suitable for people our age; it's incredibly moving."

"..."

Opinions varied widely.

Everyone said they had seen it, but Fu Mushan didn't know whether to be happy or sad!

Huo Yanzhen was satisfied with the reactions of the people present. She turned her gaze back to Fu Mushan and asked, "Miss Fu, where did the male and female leads meet?"

Fu Mushan's face turned cold. Where did they meet?

She... doesn't know!

She hadn't even read the novel!

When Meng Qianwei saw Fu Mushan's expression from below, a deep sneer appeared on her face. What a fool!

She stole someone else's book, hadn't even read it, and was stumped by a simple question. How dare she try to substitute someone else for her?

It was obvious that Huo Yanzhen had come prepared, and tonight was unlikely to be a peaceful night.
