Chapter 2463: Portrait Replication

The manager huffed. “s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, you’ve been eyed and bitten by that mad dog, and she’s not going to let go! You should go see what she posted on Weibo this morning! That selfie looks exactly like the one you posted the previous night! She’s clearly imitating you.”
Just the previous night, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ had uploaded a selfie of herself, smiling away with her chin propped on her hand, wearing a set of pastel yellow clothes and a matching cap, but when she opened Weibo to check out the photo her manager was talking about…
Sure enough, the young model had copied her and uploaded a selfie of herself in the exact same outfit with the background looking very similar to hers that morning. It was unknown how she managed to achieve it, but the actress was slightly antagonized this time.
Out of indignation, Mu Xi cussed, “That Li Xiang’er sure is an irksome b.i.t.c.h! She’s probably doing this because she knows that we can’t do anything to her! Does she have a sugar daddy behind her or something?”
Qin Zhou retorted, “Even if she doesn’t have one in the past, she’s gained enough popularity from this matter for people to come lining up to be her sugar daddy.”
Thus, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s good mood was completely ruined by that model’s crazed sensationalism from the start of the day.
Two days later, her underwater portraits that had been taken previously were posted on the magazine’s official Weibo page, along with a short video of the ongoings behind the scenes.
The actress clicked in to see the edited photos right away. They were exquisitely taken with excellent lighting, showing a long, red gown dancing seductively in the turquoise water.
She was especially fond of a particular photo—the one where she was submerged in the sunray-reflected water and was facing the surface with her hair and red dress floating all around her. It showed off her fair skin, beautifully drawn brows, almond-shaped eyes, red lips, and pearly whites. One look from her was enough to capture any person’s heart.
Another one was a back shot of her.
In this photo, she was wearing a white dress while holding a bouquet of flaming red roses to her nose as she looked down and sniffed at them lightly. Her body moved seductively like a mermaid swimming in the depths of the sea. The visual effects were stunning after the photo went through editing, for they accentuated the snow-white dress and her fair skin against her black hair, red lips, and red roses.
Few starlets had tried taking portraits underwater, so her underwater portraits came as a surprise to countless people and captured many fans’ attention as soon as they were released.
[Gos.h.!.+ I didn’t know that portraits could be shot in this way!]
[s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ is a sight for sore eyes! She looks just like a mermaid!]
[I love that photo of her in the red dress! Her black tresses and her red flowy dress in the water make her look so mesmerizing and alluring!]
[How beautiful!]
…
A few days after those portraits were released, Li Xiang’er posted a series of portraits on her Weibo page, too. She had actually copied Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ and taken photos underwater just like her, much to the astonishment of others.
The most infuriating thing was that the photo composition and the actress’s poses, outfits, style, makeup were copied right down to a tee!
It could not be any clearer that the young model was mimicking the actress. When the photos were placed side by side, it was hard to distinguish which set of photos belonged to Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ and which one belonged to the copycat.
Qin Zhou, who had been paying attention to Li Xiang’er’s Weibo page, was boiling mad when he came across those photos.
It’s clear that that model is out to copy my charge to the very end!
Never mind that she underwent surgery to look like s.h.i.+s.h.i.+; she even got some nerve to replicate her portraits as well!
