Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart

Everyone seemed to think that after she was blacklisted, her body and mind would suffer a huge blow and she wouldn’t be able to recover. Little did they know, she was now doing nothing but eating, drinking, sleeping, and playing games, living as carefreely as a salted fish.
It was just eight months, after all. She took it as a long vacation for herself.
After replying to all messages, she saw… Chen Jiaxuan had given her a call?
What did she want with her?
She hit the callback button, and in just a few seconds, the call was answered.
“Hello?”
Upon hearing her voice, Chen Jiaxuan hurried out of the studio and whispered into the phone with her hand over the receiver, “Ye Xian, I… I have something to tell you, and you mustn’t get angry when you hear it.”
“What is it?”
“It’s about the allergy incident under the Devil Tree at the match house last time; Meng Jin planned the whole thing.”
“What?!”
Ye Xian’s expression turned stern as she sat up from her bed.
The allergy incident wasn’t a coincidence? It was man-made? And it was Meng Jin’s doing?
“Yes, Meng Jin had a birthday party yesterday, and I was invited. He confessed while he was drunk, saying he arrived at the match house a day early and learned from the villagers that the tree could cause allergies. He then used the production team’s leftover resources to put a mysterious note in your box. Wasn’t there a note that told you to dig for a mysterious gift box under the Devil Tree?”
“Mhm.”
Chen Jiaxuan, sensing the chill in her voice, said, “Then it’s true. I always found him annoying and greasy, but I never imagined he could be so malicious, going so far as to harm a colleague. It’s terrifying to work with someone like that. Ye Xian, if you want to come forward and expose him, I am willing to testify for you!”
Ye Xian: “Did you record him when he said those things?”
“No…” Chen Jiaxuan shook her head, “I didn’t expect him to suddenly talk about this, and I didn’t react in time.”
Ye Xian: “I also lost that card.” She had never even considered the possibility of it being deliberate, assuming it was just a coincidence, and she even stopped Shaowen from investigating. After all, who would have thought that a tree could cause allergies and that someone would use this method?
Meng Jin really went out of his way to make her leave “Idle Days”.
“Jiaxuan, thank you for being willing to tell me this, but we lack evidence to accuse him right now. When the time is right, I certainly won’t let him off the hook.”
“Okay!” responded Chen Jiaxuan, “Whenever you need me, just say the word, and I’ll come forward to testify for you. By the way, Ye Xian, when are you going back to ‘Idle Days’?”
“This season, I don’t think I’ll return.”
“Why not? Since you’ve been gone the past two episodes, the ratings have dropped, and everyone’s less animated. It’s nothing like when you were around. I bet there will be a big change of personnel next season. Is it because of Meng Jin that you’re not coming? I think if you wanted to come back, the production team would rather have you than him. Not only do we dislike him, but the viewers do too!”
Ye Xian: “It’s not that I don’t want to go… Let’s see if there’s a chance in the future. For now, I probably won’t be able to.”
“Okay then.”
After a few more pleasantries, Chen Jiaxuan reluctantly hung up the phone.
Meng Jin…
Thinking of him, Ye Xian unconsciously gripped her phone tighter.
In a CBD skyscraper in Paris, as Ye Shaowen was chatting with a business partner, he received a call from his assistant, KIMI.
“What’s the matter?”
“President Ye, it’s not good! BHS is pulling their investment from Zero Degree.”
“What?” Ye Shaowen immediately stood up, greeted his business partner, and walked away to talk, “You’re joking. Pulling out means they have to pay a penalty for breach of contract.”
