The Untouchable Ex-Wife

"The Heart of the Grassland?" Renee usually scrolled through entertainment news and had long heard of this IP.
It was one of the novels of the Grassland trilogy written by Juniper, a famous novelist.
It described the story of a modern urban woman who was stressed about life, and chose to travel to Bellcoast.
There, she ran into a handsome and pure youth on the grassland, and they fell in love.
The plot was quite straightforward, and the characters were only the heroine, hero, and the animals living on the grassland.
However, the novelist's descriptive writing of the wilderness and the characters' budding romance made the novel very
enchanting, and it had gained a lot of fans.
"Is there a problem with it?" Xavier asked curiously.
He felt that it was a great IP, and countless top stars were vying for that role.
Him suggesting giving the role to an unknown youth was already doing Renee a great favor.
"No, that's not it." Renee explained patiently, "I feel that this IP is very influential, and once the movie comes out, Jeffrey will
either become famous or be fiercely criticized.
I'm worried he won't be able to handle the pressure." The current entertainment circle was quite chaotic; Netizens could promote
someone one day and put them down the next for the silliest reasons.
The hero of The Heart of the Grassland had many loyal fans, and if Jeffrey did a bad job playing him or his interpretation of the
hero was not what the fans had envisioned, he might fail to make a debut because of it.
"Your worries are normal, but this is the fastest method to make him famous." Xavier said rationally, "It's just like how 'Hunt my
Everheart' went from a fanfiction on a forum to a popular movie when Shirley acted in it.
She even won many awards for it.
This guy's situation is the same as Shirley's back then, and I believe that his career as a star will be more dazzling than Shirley's
as long as he doesn't forget himself." Shirley flinched subtly, pursing her lips.
Shirley knew that Xavier still hated her even though he seemed to have let it go.

The one wrong choice she had made had driven a wedge between them.
"If that's the case, I..." Shirley summoned up her courage and asked hesitantly, "Can I be the heroine of The Heart of the
Grassland? I just want things to go back to the way they were." "Forget it." Xavier sounded icy.
"Your current image is way worse than the heroine of the novel, so I don't think you'll be able to handle this role." "T've read this
novel, and I think I'm a lot like the heroine—we're both marginalized people of the city who have too many burdens.
Plus, I'm experienced in acting, so I'm sure I can play the role well.
" Shirley tried to persuade Xavier.
She wasn't just trying to get famous again; she was also hoping she could get closer to Xavier.
Renee thought about it for a while, then said, "Let her be the heroine.
Her image does suit the role very well.
The most important thing is that it'll bring in more views." She knew people would always be harsh on the heroine, which meant
that Jeffrey might be given some slack...
