With AI anybody can slander anybody these days... One famous youtuber I follow, actually asked some AI program to create a song using his voice. Honestly there was no way you could tell the song was Ai generated... by ear (maybe with some special analysis that might be possible though) and the lyrics were pretty good too, imitating his brand of humor as well. Just crazy).
So whether she said it or not, who knows... But the former assistant must be "former" for a reason. I would understand if she had allegedly committed a serious crime... but this is just petty.
Hope the drama is not too impacted and they manage to sort things out.
Honestly, this is some next level ultra nonsense pro max. The drama was alright until episode 30, but after that, it's just wild... the writer definitely has some strange fetish for sure. I hope at least they manage to recoup their expenses, I mean, even the cat and dog character must have cost a pretty penny.
I guess I’m somewhat correct with Jin Xiu losing his memories in his 2nd trial while Hongning keeps hers. And the trailer for ep 24…girl tryna seduce him so she can get “revenge” acting she WONT fall in love with him for the 4th time 😂
Gotta keep in mind that in this setting, there is no Dao that punishes the ruler of the heavens. I was speechless when the heaven king went on and on about upholding heavenly laws and then just kills a camelia flower. Already shows how hateful he will be
