Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Living Off One’s Looks
He had his qualms about Ye Xian.
From the beginning, Ye Xian had approached him with ulterior motives, using a powerful backer to forcefully squeeze into FOR, clinging to him like a sticky snake, and resorting to every ans against anyone who got a little close to him.
Consequently, when he later took on acting roles, fild comrcials, or appeared on variety shows, his partners would nervously ask him if Ye Xian was following along, worrying if she’d cause trouble, which invisibly impacted his reputation and resources greatly.
Even so netizens began to speculate whether he and Feifei—an online personality—were in a clandestine relationship; otherwise, why wouldn’t he just outright reject her?
How could he not want to? He had even harbored malicious thoughts towards Ye Xian multiple tis, wanting to teach her an unforgettable lesson, to make her disappear from his sight forever.
But having entered the entertainnt industry without the approval of the Bo Family, he certainly couldn’t show weakness before his grandfather. His eldest brother was overseas handling business, extrely busy, and he didn’t want to trouble him over such a trivial matter.
On his own, he was utterly incapable of contending with the wealthy and domineering Ye Shaowen.
Ti and again, he had endured until now.
He had thought that once his brother returned, he’d be able to use his hand to deal with her.
But to his surprise, she had suddenly changed, no longer sticking to him, no longer hindering his future, she even couldn’t be bothered to speak a word to him…
She was entirely different from before.
No, it should be said that the Ye Xian from before couldn’t even begin to compare with her present self.
The current Ye Xian dressed well, could tell jokes, took acting seriously, and her charisma and emotional intelligence were unmatched.
Especially just now, standing on stage, with a bright gleam in her eyes and a composed tone of voice, unaffected by imnse pressure, she stirred up turmoil even in the heart of him, who had always been the most annoyed by her.
If it were he who had stood in front of the microphone receiving the Rotten Sour Plum Award just now, he couldn’t guarantee that he would have done better than her.
Even, for a mont, he was bewildered.
The Ye Xian standing before him was not the sa Ye Xian he knew from before, but soone excellent and full of charm, soone worth getting closer to, worth befriending.
That was why he had subconsciously wanted to go help her when he saw her being dragged away by his brother.
But Cheng Jingshu’s words made him hesitate again.
How could soone change so drastically in such a short amount of ti? And this happened precisely when his brother returned.
Could it be because she feared his brother’s revenge, so she deliberately put on such an act?
But could soone fake it so convincingly? To the point of complete transformation?
She clearly had no acting skills…
He was becoming uncertain.
Backstage at the Night of Screams, in the n’s changing room.
As soon as Bo Tingshen had released Ye Xian and slamd the door shut, she, like a withered leaf blown down by the frosty wind, quickly nestled into a corner of the room, covering her face tightly with both hands.
“CEO, I know I’ve gone too far, and it’s made you very angry, but there’s a saying, ‘Don’t hit the face,’ especially since my livelihood depends on it. If you disfigure my face, my career would be shattered. Seeing that I am a humble little employee under your flag, could you please show so rcy…”
Ye Xian was ready to be pumled, her body tensed up like a clay statue, yet there was no movent for a long while.
With a puzzled look, she slightly moved her hands away from her face and saw…
The CEO with his back to her, unbuttoning his suit jacket. As his white shirt slid off, expanses of tense, flesh-colored musculature were exposed to the air.
