Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart

Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Are You Alright?

“Director, isn’t this a bit too grand?”

“Compared to what you’ve done for ‘Business World,’ it’s nothing!” Li Jiahua happily patted her shoulder, “Good girl, you’ve truly met my expectations. Since the show aired these past few days, both the viewership and buzz have skyrocketed, and advertisers have started discussing placements with me again.”

“It’s not because of me, it’s the result of everyone’s hard work.”

“You always know the right things to say, come on, cut the cake already!”

A cake over one meter tall was divided into dozens of pieces, everyone in the crew got a piece, and while they were eating, they started chasing each other and smearing it around. During the lively moment, Jiang Xin handed Ye Xian a gift, “Ye Xian, this is for you.”

“Sister Xin, you’re too kind. The rise in viewership isn’t just my doing, how can I accept your gift? Besides, I didn’t prepare one for you.”

“I’m not giving you this gift just because the viewership has exploded.”

Ye Xian, “Then why?”

Jiang Xin shifted her gaze slightly, “Because… thank you for those words you said last time, they helped me get out of my rut.”

“It was nothing.”

Seeing her insistently offering the gift, Ye Xian felt it would be rude to refuse. She could always get her something in return later.@@novelbin@@

She accepted the gift and casually opened it, only to find a Patek Philippe rose gold watch worth at least three hundred thousand, which shocked her so much that she immediately closed it again.

She couldn’t possibly reciprocate this gift!

“Sister Xin, are you joking with me?”

Ye Xian looked at her incredulously. Jiang Xin felt slightly embarrassed and tucked her hair behind her ear, “Do you like it? I took a long time choosing the color.”

“It’s not about whether I like it, it’s just too valuable.”

“If it’s for you, nothing is too valuable as long as you like it. Also… could you stop calling me Sister Xin? Can you call me Xiao Xin?”

“Oh~” Ye Xian realized that actresses are very conscious about their age, none of them likes being consistently called ‘sister’.

“Alright, but this gift is really too valuable, I can’t accept it.”

Ye Xian pushed the gift back to her, and Jiang Xin pushed it back again.

During their tug-of-war, Ye Xian heard a very faint sound of a camera shutter.

Probably because she had been a star in her past life, she was unusually sensitive to the sound of cameras. She swiftly turned around, just in time to see a sneaky man with a camera, taking photos of her and Jiang Xin. Seeing that he had been noticed, he turned and ran.

“Stop!”

Ye Xian put down the gift and was about to chase him, but she stepped on cream and her whole body started to fall toward the ground.

“Be careful!”

In the nick of time, a strong arm grabbed her, steadying her leaning body.

“Thank you~” Ye Xian looked up at the person, and her voice suddenly stopped, “Jiang… Captain?”

Jiang Wanze looked her up and down, “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine, thank you.”

Ye Xian shook her head, looking at his hand firmly on her shoulder, Jiang Wanze seemed to notice something and slightly loosened his grip, “Be careful.”

“Captain, what are you doing here?”

“I…”

“Wanze, you came to see me, right?”

A coquettish female voice suddenly sounded. Ye Xian turned her head and saw Cheng Jingshu walking out of the resting room, draped in a long dress, smiling broadly as she naturally hooked her arm through Jiang Wanze’s, speaking to him while her unfriendly gaze kept darting at Ye Xian, just like a protective mother hen.
