Chapter 587: Chapter 587 My Nickname for Him
If Zhu Shanshan disliked Ye Xian, Jiang Wen’s persuasions would be useless.
Zhu Tianhua was surprised; he had thought she really liked Ye Xian.
“But haven’t you been watching the TV series he acted in these past few days?”
Zhu Shanshan didn’t expect her father to suddenly bring this up.
Ye Xian also looked at her curiously.
Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Wen quickly smiled and said, “Miss Zhu is following ‘Conquest of the World,’ right? This is the latest ancient drama starring Ye Xian. It’s really popular now, you can hear people discussing it everywhere. I just saw some employees discussing it in your company’s lounge area.”
Zhu Shanshan stood up excitedly, her ears turning a bit red, “I am not watching it because of Ye Xian; I am watching it because of Jiang Wanze! I am his superfan!”
The room fell silent.
Ye Xian’s eyelids twitched as he kindly corrected her, “It’s Jiang Wanze.”
“Jiang, Jiang Wanze is my nickname for him! Is that not okay?”
Ye Xian nodded; she hadn’t said it wasn’t okay. Why was she getting so worked up?
The people present exchanged awkward glances, unsure of what exactly Miss Zhu’s attitude towards Ye Xian was.
“Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.”
Ye Xian picked up her phone and stood up.
Wang Wei watched her back for a while, then followed her.
Entering the restroom, Ye Xian took out her phone and messaged Jiang Wen on WeChat: Let’s go, Zhu Shanshan and I have a history.
Before she could send it, a cough came from behind her, as if deliberately directed at her.
Ye Xian turned and saw it was Chu Yao’s agent, Wang Wei.
Wang Wei saw her and curled his lips, “So you are Ye Xian, huh?”
Ye Xian turned on the tap, “Hello.”
“I heard your recent performance in ‘Conquest of the World’ isn’t bad, congratulations, even though it’s just a minor role.”
His emphasis was clearly on the latter half of the sentence, deliberately stressing the word ‘minor.’
Ye Xian glared at him, “What’s wrong with being a minor role?”
“Nothing at all, Star Entertainment has Jiang Wanze, you couldn’t possibly play the lead role. And for an artist like you to get such a major IP supporting role is pretty impressive. You must have gone to great lengths to secure this resource, right?”
Hearing this, Ye Xian smiled.
He was looking for trouble.
That wasn’t necessary. They had no grudges between them, and in the competition with Chu Yao, it was obvious that Chu Yao had the upper hand.
“What kind of artist am I?”
“I’m someone who speaks directly, don’t take it personally,” Wang Wei said with a feigned smile, “Even though netizens might not have a good memory, everyone in the industry knows each other well. Back when you relentlessly pursued Jiang Wanze, creating scandals about sponsors and kept relationships frequently, everyone took it as a joke. Even though Jiang Wen has excellent PR skills and managed to squash these rumors, you don’t think that just because there are no messages online, people have really forgotten, do you?”
Ye Xian responded nonchalantly.
She thought he might say something creative, but he was just like those boring haters, always dredging up ancient, trivial matters.
It seems she had really progressed in this life, allowing no one to catch even a little dirt on her, unlike in her previous life where she only focused on moving forward, making countless enemies, which led to her tripping over a dress while receiving an award…
Ye Xian looked at her flawless face in the mirror, internally exclaiming that both her face and character were perfect!
