After swapping bodies, I became a domineering CEO in a melodramatic novel.

"Cooperation?" Ji Momo chuckled softly, as if she took the matter very lightly. "I want the Qin family's status, while you are teetering on the brink of collapse, holding no advantages whatsoever. You want to win, but I just need to watch the exciting show."

"Impossible!" Yu Yuetong exclaimed excitedly, slamming her hand on the table. "You can't control anything at all; we'll turn the tables!"

"Oh?" A hint of doubt and amusement flashed in Ji Momo's eyes, as if this emotion intrigued her. "Do you really think your struggles can change all this? Once she's back on stage, the key lies in your choices, and you've run out of time."

Before she could finish speaking, Ji Momo suddenly changed her tone. She looked up, as if she had seen something, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, your protagonist halo is still there, but your path has been forcibly taken away."

Yu Yuetong's heart sank. The possibility of losing everything flashed through her mind. Ji Momo in front of her was like a cold-blooded villain, making it hard for her to breathe.

"You probably already know about what happens on variety shows." Ji Momo slowly focused her consciousness, her voice as delicate as flowing water. "I'll make you understand that the real game has only just begun." A slight smile played on her lips, revealing fearlessness and provocation.

Just then, the coffee shop door opened again, and a figure suddenly burst in.

Yu Yuetong's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes involuntarily followed the figure.

Yu Yuetong's heart skipped a beat. As the coffee shop door opened, a familiar figure walked in. It was Qin Reng, the object of her complicated feelings. At that moment, he exuded an aura of confidence. The tailored black suit perfectly outlined his cold, hard features, like a sculpture brought to life from the daytime.

"Why are you here?" Yu Yuetong asked, slightly surprised, trying to calm her inexplicable emotions. Her voice was as gentle as a breeze as she tried to appear calm.

"Just passing by and saw you." Qin Reng's tone was indifferent, yet carried a hint of elusive tenderness. His gaze swept over Ji Momo, and his face instantly hardened, revealing a hidden displeasure. His eyes were like sharp blades, brooking no argument.

"It was me who was meddling." Ji Momo's lips curled up slightly, a sinister glint flashing in her eyes. "We're discussing some cooperation matters, and someone needs to witness it, doesn't he?" Her voice was as alluring as fine wine, yet it carried a hint of arrogance and sarcasm.

Yu Yuetong felt the atmosphere was somewhat awkward. She silently encouraged herself, took a deep breath, and prepared to conceal her unease. Even though her heart was churning, she still had to project confidence. "Ji Momo, genuine cooperation is always beneficial. The key is what results we can achieve, not mutual insults." Her voice was exceptionally clear in the quiet café.

"And the result?" Ji Momo chuckled, a hint of disdain in her eyes, "is that you have no idea what kind of deal you're making."

Before she could finish speaking, Ji Momo turned to Qin Reng with feigned ease, "Right, Mr. Qin? I think you've seen it too, this sharp knife of mine, are you ready to try and find your weakness?"

Qin Reng's expression darkened slightly, as if he subconsciously disliked the situation. He raised his hand to adjust his tie, his gaze as sharp as a hawk's as he looked at Ji Momo. "You simply don't have that ability."

"Oh, what nonsense." Ji Momo crossed her arms and leaned back slightly, exuding a confidence that was like that of a thug climbing the ground, making people feel uneasy.

Yu Yuetong watched with a tense heart, never expecting that behind these playful banter lay such deep scheming. She finally calmed down a little and tried her best to maintain a composed expression.

However, things suddenly changed. Another person walked in, their stunning appearance drawing everyone's attention. Yu Yuetong glanced at them and recognized Mo Qingcheng, the man who had unsettled her even before she transmigrated into the book. Dressed in a white shirt and tailored suit trousers, he exuded a suffocating aura as he stood at the door.

"I heard you were here." He smiled slightly, like sunlight piercing through the clouds, instantly illuminating that dark corner. Damn it, why does his appearance always have such a significant effect?

"Mo Qingcheng, you're very well-informed." Ji Momo's tone was laced with sarcasm; she was already used to this man's interference. "And what are you planning to do about this now?"

Mo Qingcheng's lips curled slightly, and he shook his head, giving off an innocent vibe. "I've taken care of a lot of the work in your conversation. I heard you've been having a battle of wits lately, and here's a pretty good result."

Feeling somewhat invisible and being ostracized, Yu Yuetong took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She glanced at the two of them, thinking to herself, "This is not what I want at all. I must be a player on the chessboard, not a pawn to be manipulated."

"Yu Yuetong, do you want to continue working with me?" Qin Reng's voice rang out like a bell, startling Yu Yuetong slightly. His gaze, fixed on her, held an inscrutable tenderness that warmed her heart.

"I imagine you're already facing internal turmoil. If you want to cooperate, you might as well go it alone." Ji Momo's lips curled into a faint smile, revealing a hint of provocation.

Qin Reng turned his head and stared intently at Yu Yuetong, his expression seemingly pondering something.

“Without you, I feel that my current position is also terrible.” He was calm and firm, as if the complicated environment behind them had nothing to do with him.

"I..." Yu Yuetong couldn't finish her sentence, and the unease in her heart resurfaced. She suppressed the urge to back away and stared straight at him. At this moment, it was as if time had stood still, everything around them had disappeared, leaving only the burning gazes between the two of them.

Just then, Ji Momo's voice broke the tense atmosphere: "What an interesting emotional entanglement, it could lead to even more exciting drama. I'm looking forward to your choices, and I'm waiting to see the show." Her laughter seemed to add another layer of suspense and depth to the game.

Yu Yuetong sensed an impending conflict, but she took a deep breath and decided to face the unknown challenge.

I have no intention of backing down; I must firmly grasp my own destiny from now on!

Amidst the tense atmosphere between Ji Momo and Mo Qingcheng, Yu Yuetong felt an unprecedented pressure. She slightly adjusted her posture, trying to appear more composed. Ji Momo's sarcasm seemed poised to ignite her growing unease at any moment, while Mo Qingcheng's appearance was like a time bomb in her heart, keeping every nerve on edge.
