Chapter 22: Chapter 22 President Bo, Big Brother Bo!
"What?"
Jiang Wanze seemed not to have anticipated such a reaction.
Sharp-tongued and ready to counterattack, it looked like there really wasn't a shred of emotion in his eyes.
He was momentarily dazed, as if trying to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
But quickly, the doubt flickered away.
The person who had stuck to him like a mangy dog for over two years, the person who had crazily drugged him with C just a few days ago, suddenly claimed to have lost interest in him and even assumed an indifferent demeanor; could he believe it?
It was just a new tactic, after all.
"I don't repeat myself."
Ye Xian rolled his eyes, pulled his hand away, and straightened his collar.
His suit had been completely messed up.
"It'd better be just as you said," Jiang Wanze said sarcastically. "Or else, I have loads of dirt on you that could ruin your life in the entertainment industry the moment I leak it!"
Having said that, he turned and walked away.
"You won't do it."
Before he had gone far, Ye Xian delivered the line lazily with a sloppy and languid smile on his face, looking like a willful, unruly young master.
Jiang Wanze turned to look at him, and for a moment, was dazzled by the smile on his face.
"I will."
You won't.
Ye Xian arched an eyebrow, all confidence in his eyes and brows.
But she didn't want to get tangled up with him anymore, so she said nothing else.
He really wouldn't, because it wasn't written in the original story.
And since the female lead Luo Yuwei hadn't appeared yet, as long as she didn't harm Luo Yuwei, she wouldn't cross his bottom line, and he wouldn't make a ruthless move against her.
It had to be said that before meeting Luo Yuwei, the male lead, Wanze's values were quite upright.
However, what was strange was that Cheng Jingshu wasn't Luo Yuwei, so even if she had antagonized Cheng Jingshu today, did he need to be this furious? According to the original story, wasn't Jiang Wanze's involvement with Cheng Jingshu just to put on a show for his family? Could it be... he felt that his behavior just now not only embarrassed Cheng Jingshu but also indirectly tarnished his image in the eyes of Old Master Bo?
Almost, but what did it have to do with her? She was someone who never let a grievance go unanswered.
The pressing matter now was how to dispose of this hot potato of a gift. Maybe she should just tear open the gift box and dump whatever was inside into the trash can.
Thinking this, Ye Xian lifted the lid of the trash can.
However, before she could throw it away, a well-defined, large hand accompanied by a forceful motion snatched the gift box from her.
Ye Xian was startled and looked up.
A strikingly handsome face with sharp features caught her eye.
The top-tier bigwig?
"Big, Big Brother, I mean, President Bo!"
Observing the peerless beauty from such a close distance, Ye Xian's mind went blank, and she momentarily forgot to retrieve the gift box.
It wasn't until the man, with an expressionless face, was about to open the lid that Ye Xian came to her senses and leaped up to stop him, "Don't! Don't open it!"
She bounced up and down like a yo-yo, but he was just too tall for her to even touch the corner of the box.
A top-tier bigwig was a top-tier bigwig after all, having the upper hand in every aspect, even surpassing the male lead Jiang Wanze in height, which was simply unfair!
She just couldn't let him open the box, for if he saw what was inside, she was definitely doomed.
Her image was already bad in the eyes of the bigwig, and seeing that thing would spell the end for her~
"CEO, CEO, please give me back the box, okay?" Seeing that jumping was futile, Ye Xian steeled her heart, clung to his arm like a persistent serpent with the intent to open the box, and pleaded, "I'm begging you, please give me back the box~"
