Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 967

Chapter 967: Chapter 966: Ye Xian’s Heartache

When Jiang Wen first received the call, he thought it was some audacious celebrity team eyeing Ye Xian’s current resources and popularity, secretly obstructing him and spreading some baseless scandals to tarnish him. But when he opened Weibo, listened to the audio inside, and enlarged the photos, he was momentarily stunned.

The voice was identical to Ye Xian’s, and the person in the photo was indeed Ye Xian!

He was so nervous that his hair stood on end, his mind racing with thoughts questioning whether Ye Xian had reverted to his old ways. He forced himself to stay calm and listened to the audio again carefully.

He realized that although the voice inside was identical to Ye Xian’s, the manner and tone of speech were completely different. Even when Ye Xian was angry or impatient, his tone was at most lazy or he wouldn’t speak at all, always carrying an air of elegance and poise, never speaking in such a hurried and hostile manner, even in his past.

But in the photo... it was indeed him. He had been a celebrity agent for many years and could instantly tell the authenticity of various leaked photos. Moreover, the background of this photo seemed to be the private lounge bed of "Imperial Power" where Ye Xian was currently filming, which he had visited previously.

But how could Ye Xian be with a female model? While he had changed quite a bit over the past year, he was always very devoted in relationships, devoted to liking men, let alone now being with President Bo. Wasn’t he afraid President Bo would break his legs?

It must be fake!

Jiang Wen immediately called Ye Xian after watching, but no one answered even after three attempts. Anxiously, he called Zhou Lu, who immediately took a taxi to the Elegant Royal Court Villa District after receiving the call.

"This little ancestor! How could he turn off his phone while sleeping, and not even be on set? I hope Xiao Lu can find him quickly, or things will escalate even more by daylight..."

While Jiang Wen was anxiously pacing around, his phone received a fresh piece of news.

This time it wasn’t gossip entertainment news but social current events, but Ye Xian’s name was glaringly posted on it.

#At 3:45 a.m., there was a major car accident in the city center on Chunxi Road, the deceased’s identity has just been confirmed as Zhang Weilin, the rumored girlfriend of superstar Ye Xian#

At the appearance of Zhang Weilin’s name, Jiang Wen’s pupils shook.

Dead... she’s dead?

No need to wait for daylight, this is a matter of life and death right now.

Who is behind this fiasco, trying to get Ye Xian killed?

As soon as Zhang Weilin’s car accident death was spread online, it immediately created a sensational wave, pushing Ye Xian, already deep in a whirlpool of public opinion, to the forefront.

An entertainment gossip scandal developed into a real-time news involving human life, causing a strong social stir and reaction, with people from all walks of life flooding into the hot search, slamming Ye Xian with invective, and online public opinion was almost lynching Ye Xian through the wire.

[What??? Zhang Weilin is dead!!! Were those three Weibo posts her last words?!]

[Zhang Weilin must have exposed Ye Xian’s scandal, and Ye Xian retaliated by sending someone to run her over with a car, right?]

[Oh my God, I never expected things would go this way, this is a real human life we’re talking about! Is Ye Xian even human?]

[Hell is empty, and all the devils are here]

[Never thought he was such a wolf in sheep’s clothing, viciously cold-blooded beast, actually cruel enough to harm a woman! The law must punish him severely!]

[She was just a pitiful woman, why did Ye Xian have to go so hard on her? It makes me so angry I’m shaking all over, I really want to kill this beast]

[And fans are still defending him, are you even human? Are you blinded by pig’s lard in chasing stars, licking even a murderer?]

[Regardless of fandom, he took the life of a flower-like girl, even an international superstar must die!]

[Murderer Ye Xian, get out of the entertainment industry!!]

[Ten thousand people petitioning in blood for superstar Ye Xian to atone for his sins with death!!]

...

The overwhelming public opinion pierced through the tranquil early morning like knives and swords. Holding his phone, Jiang Wen listened to the PR team on the other side collapsing: "All exits of the company are blocked, the ’Imperial Power’ crew has also been forced to evacuate within an hour. The crowd’s emotions are overwhelming, some security guards were injured. We’ve already asked for help from the main group, but they say President Bo is currently abroad attending a very important meeting. Without his orders, no one can act arbitrarily, Jiang, should we issue a statement to control the situation for now?"

"No, if we can’t produce the most compelling evidence to prove Ye Xian’s innocence, an empty statement will only further escalate the conflict, wait a moment..."

Imperial Capital, 4:30 a.m., Rome time 9:30 p.m., Pang Kai walked out of the first conference room with a file folder in hand; his phone in his pocket had been vibrating constantly. He took advantage of a bathroom break to pull out his phone, and when he saw the sky-filled rumors about Ye Xian online and the text from Jiang Wen, his mind momentarily froze. He subconsciously wanted to report to the CEO, but...

He glanced a few times at the distinguished man in the conference room conversing gently with the black representative. This ELDY jewelry exhibition had sparked a huge commotion over racial discrimination, which has always been a sensitive issue abroad with many bloody counterexamples right before their eyes. Earlier, even century-old brands with senior qualifications than BHS were expelled from the market over it. If not handled well, BHS might lose half of its foreign market or worse.

This time the president himself stepped in; the situation looked promising, and it was now a crucial meeting. Judging from the other party’s expression, he was satisfied. If Pang Kai barged in now to report this to the president, given how much the president cares about Ye Xian, he would certainly temporarily set aside this matter to deal with the public relations...

No, he must not go in!

But the CEO had previously instructed that Ye Xian’s matters should be reported to him immediately at any time.

Pang Kai stared at the CEO’s phone in his hand, battling internally for a long time until reason from being in his position prevailed.

He called Jiang Wen and Xiao Sui separately.

"I’ve already informed President Zhao and You Shi, staff can be dispatched to Star Entertainment at any time to maintain order. Also, under no circumstances should Ye Xian leave her home! Her identity hasn’t been exposed and outsiders shouldn’t find her, but just in case, keeping her safe is the top priority!"

"Xiao Sui, do you know about Ye Xian’s situation?"

Xiao Sui replied: "I just received news from Star Entertainment’s PR team. I’ve already checked the account’s ID address; they’re all virtual and the source code has been completely erased, clean and thorough, seems premeditated, nothing left behind. Whoever’s behind this isn’t just anyone ordinary. I’m currently investigating the car accident involving Zhang Weilin, hoping to find some clues, and as for the little sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’ve set multiple walls on her phone, no attacks can penetrate it."

"That’s good, make sure to find out the truth quickly!"

a.m., the east of the Imperial Capital dawned, clouds steaming, rosy clouds rising.

Ye Shaowen’s biological clock went off; groggily he picked up a phone next to him, walked to the bathroom, unbuckling his pants while turning it on. Last night was his parents’ 28th wedding anniversary, and he and his siblings celebrated a bit excitedly, drinking some alcohol and staying up late. He even collected all the phones, and now this phone with the big bad wolf wallpaper wasn’t his, it should be Xiao Yezi’s?

As the phone turned on, countless calls, texts, and app notifications came flooding in like a tide. He paused, and after realizing what the messages conveyed, his nerves twitched, fully waking up.

"President Ye, you finally answered the phone..." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
