Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 583

Chapter 583: Chapter 583: The Farther, the Safer

A phone call for direct, personal guidance? Then, should she tell Brother Ye about the task President Bo had given her? Brother Ye would surely be touched to know how much President Bo cared for her, but what if Brother Ye got angry with her for ’betraying’ him?

Caught between a rock and a hard place, Zhou Lu felt like crying. She shouldn’t have been greedy for the VVIP seat in the first place; then she wouldn’t be in this mess.

Since the airing of "Conquest of the World," its popularity had soared, especially after the third episode. Xia Qingshao and Shen Jinyou’s apprentice and sister dynamic was full of chemistry, attracting a huge following of fans shipping the pair. Even the preview of episodes five and six, which hinted at Shen Jinyou ’peeking’ at Xia Qingshao taking a bath, broke a viewership rating of 2.

A drama with over a 2 rating across all platforms, that had only happened once in the last three years.

Zhou Lu, scrolling through Ye Xian’s rapidly increasing Weibo followers, couldn’t stop grinning. "Brother Ye, just in a few short days, you’ve gained over three million followers. Your personal topic has also entered the top ten of the annual male celebrity rankings. At this rate, catching up to the other three in FOR will be just around the corner!"

"I hope your words will come true," he replied.

"Huh?"

As Zhou Lu was browsing through Weibo posts related to Ye Xian, she accidentally clicked on Luo Yuwei’s profile and saw she had posted two photos, one with Jiang Wanze and one with Brother Ye.

The one with Jiang Wanze was fairly normal, but the one with Brother Ye was clearly taken sneakily.

Brother Ye was taking a nap in the break room, while she had snapped the photo from a seat nearby.

"Now that the TV series is on air, many fans have started picking sides for their favorite couples, clashing with each other. ’Qing Tian’ (Xia Qingshao and Gu Tianlin) and ’Qing You’ (Xia Qingshao and Shen Jinyou), the female lead sure knows how to play her cards, posting both photos and not offending either side’s fans."

Zhou Lu murmured softly, and Ye Xian, who didn’t catch what she was saying, looked up from the script. "What’s up?"

"It’s Luo Yuwei. She posted two selfies, one with you and Captain Jiang," said Zhou Lu.

"Just regular promotion?"

Was she deliberately keeping her distance, or was there another reason? 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Brother Ye, do you find her annoying? She took a candid shot of you and didn’t even pick a good angle, yet luckily for you, Brother Ye, you’re flawless from every angle. The comments are all saying how cute you look asleep," Zhou Lu said.

Ye Xian switched off the phone and looked at her, "Xiao Lu, let’s not talk about her behind her back in the future, and try to mention her less."

Zhou Lu saw the seriousness in her expression, nodded obediently, thinking she was protecting her, and asked puzzledly, "Brother Ye, you seem really protective of her. Why is that?"

Brother Ye couldn’t really be... charmed by her, could he?

Ye Xian replied, "It’s not about protecting her; it’s that I don’t want any relationship."

Although many people and things had changed since she had arrived in this world, she noticed that the main storyline was steadily progressing. Bo Tingshen was covering the sky with one hand, a top-tier boss calling the winds and summoning the rains, with a business growing ever larger, approaching the top of the Forbes rich list. Jiang Wanze’s star path in the entertainment industry was dazzling, Luo Yuwei saved Mother Bo, and started slowly gaining fame after starring in a hit drama...
