Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 974

Chapter 974: Chapter 973: I Am Yours

Watching the girl in the video filled with passion and encouragement, Ye Xian felt her eyes heat up slightly, and her gaze toward the Mermaid script gradually firmed.

She composed her emotions, turned off her phone, and got up, only to see Bo Tingshen standing at the door.

"...CEO, why are you here?"

"Decided to act?"

Did he hear everything?

Ye Xian paused for a moment and nodded.

He didn’t say anything else, but she could feel the complex emotions emanating from him.

Acting in a film at this critical moment could have unpredictable outcomes; no one knows what she might endure next.

Ye Xian seemed to see through his thoughts, smiled as she walked towards him, "Why so unhappy? Didn’t you teach me to have the courage to abandon the past and achieve rebirth? I originally thought quitting the industry was rebirth, but now I think about it, it feels more like avoidance."

She reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, her face full of smiles, yet her eyes were particularly serious, "You don’t have to worry about me. With you behind me, no matter what thorns and dangers lie ahead, I am fearless."

Bo Tingshen’s eyes darkened, his grip on her slender waist tightened slightly, and Ye Xian sensitively fell into his arms, hearing him respond deeply by her ear, "Okay."

This time, he absolutely won’t let her get hurt even a little.

"Yes, yes~ Brother Shen is the best!" Ye Xian nodded sweetly, her fingertips drawing circles on his broad and firm back, "I have one more request, is that okay?"

A beauty in his arms calling him brother in a soft voice, the man’s rationality was being eroded bit by bit, "Sure, I’ll agree to whatever you want."

"I want to use this film as an apology to the fans. If they still can’t forgive me after the film is released, then I think there’s nothing left for me to linger on. So, I want to pour all my effort and heart into completing this movie. Before the filming is done, Brother Shen, can you... not disturb me?"

"What did you say?"

As soon as she finished, the man’s expression changed suddenly.

"No, no!"

Ye Xian quickly waved her hands to explain, "Please don’t misunderstand, I just want to dive deep into creating this role, understand? I want to completely immerse myself into the character, without any external stimuli, to achieve a perfect unity between actor and role. I just read the script synopsis, and the character is quite unique this time, with considerable difficulty, especially in psychological building, which requires time to settle and accumulate, otherwise, it’s easy to break character. With shooting imminent, I..."

"No way."

Before she finished speaking, Bo Tingshen rejected her outright.

Ye Xian looked at his cold eyes and tight jaw, his sharp gaze seemed to want to seal her mouth tightly, and she immediately felt a bit wronged, "Brother Shen, you just said you’d agree to anything I asked for..."

"Still pretending?"

Bo Tingshen narrowed his eyes, pinching her chin, "Never mind not seeing you for so long..."

He couldn’t even go a day without seeing her!

"But..."

"Not even a but."

Bo Tingshen held her tightly, "So long not seeing you, do you want me to go mad?"

"It’s not that long, it’s less than two months from now until Spring Festival."

"Say that again?"

"..."

Ye Xian obediently shut her mouth, her eyes spinning as she thought of ideas.

Now that she’s in love with him, seeing him makes her heart surge and filled with joy, obviously hindering her perfect immersion into the role. But once she agrees to act, she’ll be carrying the hope of the entire crew and everyone’s expectations for the box office, and this sincerity in apologizing to the fans. Hence, she needs to deliver two hundred percent performance.

After thinking, she decided to use her trump card.

"CEO... If you agree, after the film wraps, I’ll agree to one condition of yours. Whatever you want, you can have it."

As soon as she finished speaking, the man’s body suddenly stiffened.

Ye Xian sensed it, her heart racing, just to see him slowly release her, his deep black eyes staring at her, "Whatever I want?"

Ye Xian nodded, "Yes, yes!"

"Are you sure?"

"..."

Ye Xian’s face flushed under his unabashed gaze, she knew exactly what he wanted to ’do’.

"Absolutely... sure."

Originally thinking he’d agree readily after this, unexpectedly, he raised his lips with disdain and undisguised anger in his eyes, "Ye Xian, do you think I’m with you just to do you?"

His words were so blunt, making Ye Xian suddenly confused and embarrassed, "Of course not!"

"You’re actually using this as a bargaining chip?"

"???"

Ye Xian was filled with question marks, but wasn’t he always... coercing her before, how did he suddenly turn into Liu Xiahui?

"I’m not, don’t wrong me!"

"Then what is it?"

"I, I..."

Ye Xian stammered, lowering her brows and circling her fingers around his chest faintly, her shy demeanor like a fairy seducing before absorbing life force, "I originally belong to the CEO wholly; whatever you want to do to me, you can do it..."

She didn’t realize how lethal this sentence was to the man, it was like grasping his lifeline, deciding his life and death.

"Little fairy."

Bo Tingshen gritted his teeth, biting her lips like a wolf and tiger, "I could kill you right now."

He slammed the studio door shut, scaring Ye Xian for a moment, "Hey, hey, CEO what are you doing? Not now, we’re at home..."

"You’ve left me hanging for so long, how are you going to compensate?"

Ye Xian froze, then smiled in surprise, "So you agree?!"

She was about to laugh but couldn’t, only having cries left.

The commotion over Ye Xian’s revealed identity gradually subsided, and online public opinion shifted toward Zhang Weilin’s death and false witness issues.

The remaining payment for Zhang Weilin was frozen, and the two voice actors in the audio mysteriously vanished. Zhang Weilin’s death clearly was just a regular traffic accident, yet a special task force was established by Chunxi District police for this.

Thinking of X’s call and Zhang Weilin’s criminal record, Jian Simeng began to panic, leaving without saying goodbye to her family, and rushed to the airport fully prepared.

She was wrapped tightly and entered the airport with the crowd, but when she placed her ID at the ticket machine, it displayed empty.

How is that possible?

After several unsuccessful tries, she nervously headed outside. When she reached a secluded and unoccupied passage, she suddenly heard a loud and joyful whistling sound.

Looking up, she saw a man standing at the end of the passage, wearing black cargo pants, sporting a neat buzz cut, with a mischievous expression on his face. His left foot... was stepping on her checked luggage!

You Shi saw her, sneered, and slowly pulled out a ticket from his pocket, "Miss Jian, is this what you’re looking for?"

Her ticket?!

Jian Simeng’s expression chilled.

[No, does apologizing now even help? Even Ye Xian’s official fan club has deleted posts; fans can’t forgive her either]

[Ye Xian is really pitiful, experiencing two large-scale cyberbullyings; who can handle that?]

[The most painful thing for her must be being cyberbullied and losing her most trusted fans]

[Though I just learned about this, Ye Xian is truly pitiful, losing everything while doing nothing wrong]

[It’s really scary, thankfully I didn’t join in the senseless blackening, feels like Ye Xian hasn’t appeared until now, is she going to quit the circle?]

[If Ye Xian quits, it would surely be a great loss for the film and television industry, and she’s the most innocent victim...]

Ye’s Fans, who reflexively clicked into trending whenever they saw the words ’Ye Xian’, fell into silence upon reading the contents; no one’s feelings were more complex than theirs at the moment.

Imperial Capital Center BHS Headquarters Building, 66th Floor

CEO’s office

"Knock knock knock~"

The sound of knocking echoed, and a disheveled figure was suddenly thrust into the office, "Get in there!"

"N-no, don’t touch me, don’t touch me... Ah!!!"

Having been tormented in the dark for several days, her clothes in tatters, hair scattered, the always arrogant and willful Jian Simeng was now lying on the ground, her face stained with tears. Seeing the man behind the desk, a glimmer of hope flickered in her eyes, "Brother Tingshen, Brother Tingshen, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please, for the sake of our childhood friendship, no, the Bo and Jian families being neighbors for so many years, spare me this time..."

She crawled towards the man like a lost dog, but You Shi kicked her away.

"Ah!"

At the sight of You Shi, memories of the cruel torture she suffered these days flooded back — those filthy scenes and blinding flashes — she instantly lost control and screamed hysterically, "Ah..."

You Shi sealed her mouth with tape, and the man behind the desk, after signing a document, gradually put away his pen and raised his eyes slightly.

Understanding the cue, You Shi placed a phone in front of the woman. When Jian Simeng saw that her scandalous photos with a group of men had spread across the internet and the entire upper society was criticizing and disgusting her family, she nearly fainted from the shock.

You Shi tore off the tape from her mouth, drawing blood from her lips. Jian Simeng, teetering on the edge of fainting, looked at the elegant and dignified man behind the desk; laughter and tears intertwined in her eyes full of ultimate pain.

Indeed, he is the man she had secretly loved for so many years, knowing exactly how to make her life worse than death!

"...Brother Tingshen, just because I slightly plotted against Ye Xian, do you have to treat me this way?"

"This is just the beginning. You will watch the downfall and disappearance of the Jian family from within prison bit by bit." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

His tone was as indifferent as water, driving Jian Simeng to madness as she roared, "Why? Why?! Why is this happening?! I secretly loved you for over ten years, waited for you for over ten years, studied abroad for you, spared no cost for you, but still can’t compare to an actress..."

Before she could finish the word ’actress’, someone had kicked her into the wall, making her spit blood. When she came back to her senses, she caught sight of a pair of gleaming black shoes. Raising her head, she gradually saw the man’s strikingly handsome figure and the unparalleled fair face approaching methodically.

It was the man she had dreamt about day and night for over ten years, now so close yet stirring a slight sense of unreal hope, "Brother Tingshen..."

She pleaded for a shred of pity, but the man’s eyes were icy, as if looking at a dead object, his thin lips uttering a few words, "So this is what you look like."

With those words, Jian Simeng was completely stunned.

You Shi was taken aback for a moment and couldn’t help exchanging a glance with Xiao Sui beside him.

The BOSS is at an emperor level of cutting to the heart.

She thought they had spent over a decade as childhood friends, yet he didn’t even know what she looked like.

"Take her away."

"Yes!"

Jian Simeng was dragged away by two people, leaving like a person who had lost her mind, insanely spirited, just like garbage being casually discarded.
