Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad

Chapter 301 High-Ranking Business Tycoon (Gong) VS Beautiful, Clueless, and Clear-Headed (Shou) [77]

Jiang Xiyu obediently extended her hand, and put on a polite smile: "Hello."

The young man's smile wasn't entirely genuine, carrying a faint sense of social distance, yet even so, his striking appearance made it impossible not to stop and look.

Cheng Zhuo looked him over for a moment before extending his hand to shake his.

The polite gesture ended abruptly. Shen Jingtan raised her hand and patted Jiang Xiyu's head, indicating that he should wait aside first.

Jiang Xiyu nodded.

Shen Jingtan watched him walk a short distance before she looked away.

Seeing his reaction, Cheng Zhuo simply remarked jokingly, "Indeed, you can't judge a book by its cover."

He really didn't expect Shen Jingtan to like this kind of person, nor did he expect him to be so serious about this child. It's interesting that his nephew and uncle both like the same type of person.

Shen Jingtan was quite frank and told him some things.

Jiang Xiyu stood not far away, watching the two men talking, and just kicked the pebbles under her feet out of boredom.

Although she didn't know what they were talking about, she could clearly feel Shen Jingtan's gaze occasionally falling back on her.

A few minutes later, Shen Jingtan finished the conversation and came over, taking Jiang Xiyu's hand and asking him if he wanted to go back.

Jiang Xiyu nodded obediently.

On the way back to the villa, he couldn't help but steal glances at Shen Jingtan.

The middle-aged man from earlier was Shen Jingtan's friend. Judging from his clothes and demeanor, he gave the impression of an older, dignified, and unapproachable elder.

Shen Jingtan was also older, and he was also dignified and not to be offended, but there was an indescribable tension in this dignified aura.

Jiang Xiyu is face-blind, so he couldn't focus on Shen Jingtan's face. Therefore, he paid more attention to a man's temperament. In his eyes, Shen Jingtan's temperament was something that inspired imagination and was full of ascetic tension.

He had never seen such a charming man.

Especially during intimate moments, being naked opposite such a cold man, feeling his sensuality, his power, his loss of control...

Jiang Xiyu's hand, which was curled up in Shen Jingtan's palm, couldn't help but move slightly.

Shen Jingtan knew he was staring at her, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on her lips.

That evening, because of this comparison, Jiang Xiyu couldn't resist his curiosity. He wanted to touch Shen Jingtan's face, so he sincerely asked Shen Jingtan if he could touch it.

Shen Jingtan certainly wouldn't refuse. He sat on the edge of the bed, as if he could see through Jiang Xiyu's thoughts, and chuckled, asking, "What's wrong? Are you afraid I look old?"

Jiang Xiyu's face flushed red, and he frantically waved his hands, explaining, "No, no, Mr. Shen, I just wanted to know what you look like..."

"Okay, just kidding."

Shen Jingtan grabbed Jiang Xiyu's hand and led him to touch her face.

Her fingertips were guided, slowly tracing the man's deep eyebrows, nose, and down to his sensual lips. The man's facial features were very sharp, as if he exuded a cold and aloof aura everywhere.

After carefully touching Shen Jingtan's face, Jiang Xiyu's fingertips, seemingly unintentionally yet very flirtatiously, brushed against the man's Adam's apple on his neck, lingering there.

Shen Jingtan stared intently at him, and asked him in a low voice, seemingly a little nervous, how he was feeling.

Jiang Xiyu felt his Adam's apple bob, then smiled at Shen Jingtan and praised, "Mr. Shen, you are very handsome."

Shen Jingtan chuckled, feeling as if her heart had been squeezed.

He paused for a moment before reaching out and twirling Jiang Xiyu's long hair around his fingertips, returning the gentle compliment to her.

"My goodness, you're the prettiest one."

He made no secret of his fondness for Jiang Xiyu and was generous with his praise.

Jiang Xiyu listened and suddenly laughed with a touch of embarrassment.

Shen Jingtan gently lifted his chin with her hand, looked down at him for a long time, and asked in a very gentlemanly manner, "May I kiss you?"

Jiang Xiyu looked up at him, her lips very red.

Shen Jingtan wasn't in a hurry and waited for his response.

They could have just kissed, but they insisted on asking.

Jiang Xiyu shifted her gaze somewhat awkwardly, not daring to look at Shen Jingtan, but nodded very lightly.

Shen Jingtan wrapped her arms around his waist and kissed him.

It was a very deep kiss.

Jiang Xiyu's slightly open eyes caught a glimpse of the reflection in the French windows, and her eyes snapped shut as if burned, though her long eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.

……

Two days later, Jiang Xiyu went to keep his appointment with Jiang Yun.

Since the car accident, Jiang Yun had hardly seen him again. Coupled with the subsequent scandals and online bullying, Jiang Yun was worried that Jiang Xiyu might do something rash during that time.

She had thought that this incident was indeed a big blow, and Jiang Xiyu would definitely look haggard.

But looking at the handsome young man standing in front of him, greeting him with a smile, Jiang Yun couldn't help but be amazed.

Seeing that Jiang Xiyu wasn't as dejected as he had imagined, Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief and was genuinely happy.

"Feel good?"

Jiang Xiyu smiled and said, "It's alright, I've recovered."

Jiang Yun smiled and remarked, "You look even better. It seems Young Master Shen has been protecting you quite well."

Jiang Xiyu's smile faded slightly, and she said nothing.

Jiang Yun was unaware that he and Shen Xiushu had gotten into trouble, and Jiang Xiyu didn't intend to say more. In fact, he didn't want to expose Shen Jingtan either.

Jiang Yun wanted to strike while the iron was hot and help him reach even greater heights by leveraging Shen Xiushu's resources.

Now that the rumors have been clarified, the situation has taken a dramatic turn. Jiang Xiyu's popularity has soared again, and those endorsements that originally wanted to terminate their contracts are now offering even more lucrative terms to renew them with her.

However, they had already discussed it on the phone in the past two days. The general idea was that they would pay the compensation due for breach of contract, and they would not renew the endorsement contracts that were originally going to be terminated.

Jiang Yun didn't understand why he refused such a generous offer until the 'TREASURE' endorsement deal was offered to him, at which point Jiang Yun was overjoyed.

During the controversy, 'TREASURE' did not break their previous agreement. They had initially required Jiang Xiyu to reach a certain number of tens of millions of fans, and now that Jiang Xiyu had reached that level, 'TREASURE' sent someone over to invite him to officially become 'TREASURE's' new spokesperson in the Chinese region.

Jiang Xiyu left behind this endorsement.

His previous efforts were all aimed at building a fan base and becoming the spokesperson for 'TREASURE' high-end luxury.

Jiang Yun asked him if he was willing to resume work now.

Jiang Xiyu shook her head and refused, saying she wanted to rest for a while.

Jiang Yun didn't quite agree.

Because such high popularity won't last forever, and taking a break is very costly. Once the hype dies down, how many people will still remember him?

The entertainment industry has always been a dog-eat-dog world; if one falls, countless others will rise to fame.

Jiang Yun thought he was confused.

Especially now, the prevailing opinion is almost entirely sympathetic to Jiang Xiyu.

Although Jiang Yun and Jiang Xiyu both knew the truth.

But it's just being kept; it's not like I've committed any heinous crime or infringed on anyone's interests.

The popularity of "Qingshan Yusui" is entirely due to Jiang Xiyu's serious performance in the drama.

Jiang Yun knew how much he had sacrificed to present the best action scenes, and hoped that he would not give up.

Jiang Xiyu explained gently, "I just don't want to take on so many roles anymore. Rather than taking advantage of my current popularity, I want to hone my acting skills."

"I also want to live my own life."

Jiang Yun just felt it was a pity to miss out on the hype, but seeing Jiang Xiyu's firm attitude, she didn't say anything more.

After all, no matter how quiet a young person may be, there will always be someone to support him, and there's no need to worry about resources.

The two chatted for a while.

Jiang Yun suddenly brought up what happened yesterday, saying it was inside information.

"I heard that the person in charge of Weibo was summoned by the Cyberspace Administration of China and was not only ordered to rectify the situation, but also fined five million yuan."

Jiang Xiyu was quite surprised: "Is it that serious?"

Jiang Yun replied, "It seems that some accounts on Weibo posted information that violated laws and regulations, and it seems to be quite serious." She sighed and added, "The current online atmosphere is indeed not good, and it deserves to be changed."

However, the higher-ups have never had time to deal with these matters.

This time the crackdown was quite severe, especially targeting those who spread rumors and infringe on rights. Many accounts were banned, and even some actors were affected by their fans.

"I heard that after Weibo was fined, some actors were immediately summoned by the person in charge for questioning regarding issues with fan management."

Most of those fans' idols kicked Jiang Xiyu when she got into trouble.

Therefore, this matter is also related to Jiang Xiyu. After all, who would have thought that his scandal would eventually turn into such a large-scale cyberbullying?

As Jiang Xiyu listened, she subconsciously thought of Shen Jingtan.
