Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Ye Xian The Three Cardinal Sins
No matter how much she cursed her, she could bear it, but now she was cursing Ye Xian, and Zhou Lu’s fury flared up instantly, “Ye Xian is not a bitch, he’s gentle, kind, and considerate—a thousand times, no, a million times better than you!”
“You’re asking for it!”
Cheng Jingshu hated Ye Xian to the bone and couldn’t stand to hear others speak well of him, especially those who should have been on her own side turning against her.
She raised her hand, ready to slap Zhou Lu’s face.
Unexpectedly, the usually submissive assistant didn’t hesitate to grab her wrist in defense today, “Miss Cheng, please behave yourself. I’m no longer your assistant. If you hit me again, don’t blame me for calling the police!”
Cheng Jingshu, seeing her own wrist being clutched, trembled with rage.
Zhou Lu shook her off and turned to leave. When she reached the door, she paused for a moment, “By the way, Miss Cheng, my name is Zhou Lu, not Xiao Wen. I hope you can learn to respect people in the future, otherwise, even the most beautiful shell cannot hide the filth beneath.”
After Zhou Lu left, Cheng Jingshu, gritting her teeth in anger, smashed the cosmetics on the table to the ground, even her eyes with contact lenses turned red.
Ye Xian, Ye Xian, it’s always Ye Xian!
Director Li added scenes because of him, President Bo investigated her because of him, Wanze scolded her because of him, and now even a lowly assistant was abandoning her for him!
Cheng Jingshu, grabbing her own hair, was going insane, “Ye Xian, I won’t let you off!”
The next day, Ye Xian was jolted awake by a series of urgent ringtone while still in a deep sleep.
Her voice hoarse, she answered the call; on the other end, Jiang Wen’s voice was frantic, “Ye Xian, you’re trending on social media!”
Ye Xian opened one eye and glanced at the time, “It’s Saturday, ‘Business World’ is airing, isn’t it normal for me to be trending?”
“It’s not about the drama, it’s a negative trend! Get up and see for yourself what’s going on. When did you and Cheng Jingshu become so estranged? She’s a veteran at Star Entertainment and her status is higher than yours. If this blows up, Star Entertainment will definitely sacrifice the pawn to save the castle. Your career has just started to look up; you can’t let it be ruined by public opinion. Hurry up and check, I’ll get the company to do some PR for you, and you prepare to apologize to her…”
Jiang Wen rambled on and on, and when Ye Xian heard Cheng Jingshu’s name, her sleepiness had mostly dissipated.
What trouble is she causing now?
She opened Weibo’s trending topics, and there at the top of the list was her name—Ye Xian’s Three Crimes
The top trending Weibo post was a long article posted by Cheng Jingshu’s account, with over three hundred thousand followers, sprawling thousands of words, all scolding her, summarized by netizens into three points.
The first point was that Ye Xian, knowing full well that Cheng Jingshu and Jiang Wanze were engaged, still harassed Jiang Wanze multiple times, shamelessly acting the “male mistress” (accompanied by screenshots of Ye Xian and Jiang Wanze’s multiple calls).
The second point was that Ye Xian brought capital into the production crew, threw her weight around, forcefully added scenes for herself, resulting in the screenwriter having no choice but to cut her scenes (accompanied by the latest episodes of ‘Business World’ showing an increasing number of Gu Chen’s scenes).
The third point was that Ye Xian spent a hefty sum to bribe Cheng Jing’s personal assistant Zhou Lu and the head of ‘Chengjing Couple’ fans, maliciously stealing Cheng Jing’s personal schedules and information, causing the head of ‘Chengjing Couple’ fans to dissolve the official Chengjing Couple fan group (chat screenshots as evidence).
These were initially just spontaneous accusations from fans. Even if the words were sharp and the evidence solid, they were only internal disputes within the fan circle and wouldn’t have made a huge impact. However, Cheng Jingshu herself retweeted the post, adding the comment, “Told you to hold back, how did it get out?” which quickly climbed the trending charts. In no time, public opinion started to tilt in her favor.
