I transmigrated into the villain's white moonlight, but the protagonist is my brother.

The next morning, Xie Yan arrived at work on time.

After a week's rest, her colleagues were very welcoming when they saw her. Everyone was especially excited as the project was nearing its end, and everyone looked radiant.

Luo Dandan chirped over like a little bird, "You're wearing makeup? You look so radiant today!"

"I applied some sunscreen."

"...I have nothing to say to you naturally beautiful people."

Back at her long-missed workstation, Xie Yan found that her desk was dust-free, indicating that someone had cleaned it beforehand.

When it was time to eat, Xie Yan finally had a chance to check her phone. She took it out while sitting in the cafeteria and saw that Shen Yan had sent her several messages.

It's ridiculous, they only added each other on WeChat yesterday. Shen Yan sent a picture of medicine, meaning he took it, and a little while later he sent a picture of food, meaning he ate.

Xie Yan glanced at the location; the red dot was obediently flashing in the hospital. Satisfied, she replied with "Good boy/girl" and sent a cat-head-rubbing emoji.

The next second, the other side sent a meme of a fluffy, chubby kitten rubbing against the corner of the wall, looking very cute.

Xie Yan chuckled, chatted for a few minutes, then closed WeChat and opened a novel she had been reading recently.

These past few days, she'd been thinking about how Shen Yan was originally a villain in a novel, so based on some of his traits, she wanted to search for similar novels, and she actually found some.

Xie Yan had never read online novels before; if she did, it was always documentary or serious literature. This first encounter with these novels opened a new world for her and she also learned a lot of new vocabulary.

For example, there are yandere, dark side, imprisonment and forced love, paranoia. In the book she is currently reading, the male lead even puts iron chains on the female lead's feet, which makes Xie Yan feel extremely shocked.

However, she also learned a lot from it. For example, all you need to do with this kind of man is to coax him and flatter him. Shen Yan is very easy to coax.

The plot was melodramatic and hilarious, yet strangely cheesy, making it addictive. Xie Yan was so engrossed in reading that she didn't notice Luo Dandan approaching with a bowl, only to be caught off guard by the book's title.

Luo Dandan looked incredulous, shocked by Xie Yan's taste. "A paranoid, possessive, and domineering CEO falls in love with me, a terminally ill amnesiac... So this is your type?"

Xie Yan was utterly helpless. "No, let me explain..."

"Stop making excuses. I have a membership to a novel website. Do you want it?"

Xie Yan paused for a moment, then said, "...Yes."

Upon hearing this, Luo Dandan chuckled, winked at her, and gave her a knowing look. Xie Yan was speechless.

evening.

"You'll probably need surgery."

In the ward, the man on the bed had his trousers rolled up, revealing his scarred knees, which were red, swollen, and bruised. The scars from the steel pins he had previously had were swollen and horrifying.

The young man seemed listless, giving a dejected "oh" while his eyes remained fixed on the clock on the opposite wall.

He glanced down at his phone again; the small blue dot was receding into the distance from the hospital. He pursed his lips.

bad mood.

"Did you hear me? I said you need surgery." The doctor waved his hand in front of Shen Yan's eyes. "Young man, how can you be distracted like this? I'm talking to you! Where are your family members?"

Shen Yan opened his mouth, "...No family members came."

For some reason, the doctor detected a hint of grievance in the patient's sour tone and frowned. "Didn't you come? How can you not come? Who will take care of you then?"

Secretary He outside the door really wanted to raise his hand, but it was clear he had no say in the matter.

After the doctor left, Secretary Xiao He dutifully poured her boss a glass of hot water, only to hear him suddenly ask, "Do you think I'm a burden?"

Secretary He nearly fainted from fright. How dare he, the upright and just official! Long live President Shen!

"Of course not! Everyone in the company envies me for being able to work alongside President Shen!"

Shen Yan looked at his expression as if judging the truth of his words, then turned to look at his right leg, which was immobilized, and sighed.

He really dislikes his current passive and powerless situation, which is why he doesn't like coming to the hospital.

Just then, his phone vibrated. Shen Yan looked down at it for a couple of seconds and saw that it was a message from Xie Yan.

"Have you had dinner? Go to bed early after you finish eating."

Shen Yan was carefully typing, wanting to ask her what she was doing, when the other side immediately sent the next message.

"I have something important to do now. I need to get your brother-in-law's approval."

------

Perhaps because she doesn't pay much attention to entertainment gossip, Xie Yan was unaware of the major upheaval in the entertainment industry these past few days.

But when she saw that the entrance to Starway Entertainment was surrounded by reporters and photographers with all kinds of high-definition cameras, she realized that something was wrong.

The company gates were tightly closed, making it impossible to enter or leave. Xie Yan quickly called Xie Qingyu to ask what had happened. Upon hearing that she was downstairs, Xie Qingyu immediately sent someone down to pick her up.

At this moment, Xie Qingyu was in a frantic meeting.

The Weibo hashtag has exploded, with more than a dozen out of fifty posts being about Bai Zhiwei, and the trending topics are mostly about her relationship being exposed, because she and Tan Qing were photographed by paparazzi the night before last.

Unfortunately, they had just started dating and were only holding hands when they were caught on the day they were photographed. They were just picking up a package together in the neighborhood when they were caught in the act.

Bai Zhiwei sat on the sofa and sighed helplessly, "President Gu, I think we should just go public. I'm not an idol, there's nothing wrong with an actor having a boyfriend, right?"

"No way," Tan Qing disagreed. "You're in the prime of your career, and you'll be competing for awards at the end of the year..."

Just as the two were disagreeing, the meeting room door was pushed open. Everyone looked over at the sound, and Bai Zhiwei and Tan Qing were both stunned.

The person at the door was slender and beautiful. If it weren't for her different demeanor and the fact that she was wearing glasses, the two men would have almost mistaken her for someone else.

Only Xie Qingyu calmly invited Xie Yan to come in and sit down. Xie Yan had no choice but to bite the bullet and come in amidst their surprised gazes, and even greeted them.

Ten years have passed, and Bai Zhiwei's features have become even more refined, and her overall demeanor has improved; she is clearly not an ordinary person.

Tan Qing is the same; she's more mature than before. At first glance, she doesn't seem to have changed much; she's still so calm and reliable.

The composed and reliable Tan Qing looked at Xie Qingyu, "President Gu, who is this...?"

Xie Qingyu stubbed out his cigarette and said calmly, "My friend, don't worry, he's one of us."

He winked at Xie Yan but she didn't respond, so he sent another message: "Sis, sit down for a bit. We can talk later if you need anything." Xie Yan secretly gave him an OK sign.

Getting back to business, Xie Qingyu sighed and called in the marketing manager. The group sat around the table and discussed countermeasures.

Bai Zhiwei has been a leading actress for several years. She has outstanding acting skills and seems to have been born for this job. She has tens of millions of fans on Weibo, all of whom are extremely loyal.

But now the crazy fans have also become a problem. Some people have directly dug up Tan Qing's identity and then launched a frenzy of insults, saying that the executives of the agency were sexually harassing female artists and demanding that Bai Zhiwei get justice.

Bai Zhiwei's haters were overjoyed, saying that she would do anything to get resources, even selling herself and sleeping with men, which was extremely harsh and could be considered an insult.

The entire internet is now in a frenzy of gossip. Netizens haven't seen such a spectacle in a long time, after all, Bai Zhiwei's status is now comparable to that of a top female celebrity, and other artists' companies are also secretly fueling the fire.

Xie Qingyu spoke eloquently at the long table, calmly analyzing the current situation, while Xie Yan watched from the side. His every move exuded the demeanor of a mature businessman.

There was a knock on the conference room door, and someone gasped, "Mr. Gu, something terrible has happened! The paparazzi have found our side door to the underground parking garage, and we're stuck!"
