Chapter 42 The Consequence

"President, there's a man named Jesse downstairs. He says he's Fourth Young Master's agent," Han Rui knocked and entered to report.

"Let him come up." Ye Jingxing instructed directly, without waiting for Ye Jinghuai.

Han Rui didn't move and looked at Ye Jinghuai.

"Mhm," Ye Jinghuai nodded.

"Second Brother, your special assistant is quite something!" Ye Jingxing said with a smile.

"He is my special assistant!" The implication was that he obviously listened to me.

Ye Jingxing sat opposite him, raising an eyebrow, but said nothing.

A moment later, Jesse walked in trembling and first greeted Ye Jinghuai.

"President Ye, hello." His attitude was extremely respectful.

"I say, Jesse, you're my agent, right!" Ye Jingxing gritted his teeth.

Jesse didn't speak, just smiled, but rolled his eyes internally. Joke, that's my boss's boss, I have to be respectful, right?

"What did you ask him to come for?" Ye Jinghuai asked, sitting down with Nuannuan in his arms.

"I asked him to check something. How is it? Did you find out?" Ye Jingxing gestured to Jesse.

"Mhm, it was indeed Yang Simin who took the photos." Jesse nodded.

"To get revenge for the embarrassment you caused her in the studio."

"Heh, wasn't her embarrassment self-inflicted? Did she also hire the online trolls?" Ye Jingxing said speechlessly.

"That's not the case." Jesse shook his head.

"She also knows your identity, so she wouldn't do something so obviously foolish. She just had someone post the photos. She's got a little bit of cunning, knowing to have people register a new account. The registered information was for an old man, and that person posted the photos from an internet café."

"She didn't hire trolls? How could a new account spread so quickly?"

Even with Ye Jingxing's immense popularity, a Weibo post from a new account wouldn't spread that fast.

"This was also a coincidence. Not long after he posted it, it was reposted by a big V with millions of followers. That's why it spread so quickly.

I checked that big V. He specializes in entertainment gossip. He wasn't bribed, and his reposting just expressed his surprise at the matter, without saying anything negative."

"So it was a coincidence. Then who hired the trolls?"

"It was a newcomer. Coincidentally, he's the male lead of the drama that suddenly became popular along with Yang Simin. He debuted under the banner of 'Little Ye Jingxing'."

"How dare they hire trolls?"

"A newcomer, suddenly popular, doesn't know his place. He did this behind the backs of his agency."

"So? He thought this would take me down? What benefit does he get?" Ye Jingxing asked with a laugh.

"Not really. He originally intended to smear me a bit. Then, he would step out under the name 'Little Ye Jingxing', show his purity and goodness, and harvest a wave of popularity."

"A brain is truly a good thing. Does he look a lot like me?"

"Take a look!" Jesse, looking speechless, handed over the photo.

"What is this garbage? How does this look like me?" Ye Jingxing took one look and disdainfully flung the photo away, which happened to land on Ye Jinghuai's desk.

"That's why! Your fans are cursing him on his Weibo every day for riding your coattails, calling him ugly and delusional! Don't mention he has a few fans, they're constantly fighting with your fans!" Jesse shrugged and said with a smile.

Nuannuan peeked at it, her face full of handmade traces, and her face contorted.

"Ugly~" Nuannuan wrinkled her nose in disgust.

"My Nuannuan has good taste. How does this garbage look like me?"

Ye Jingxing winked at Nuannuan. Seeing this, Ye Jinghuai quickly covered Nuannuan's eyes and warned him with his gaze.

"Alright, don't let these eye-watering things appear again."

With Ye Jingxing's current status in the entertainment industry, even without the Ye family, it was just a matter of words for him to ban two amateur performers.

Meanwhile

"Slap!"

"You idiot! Who told you to take photos? And even let them get out!" Annie slapped Yang Simin heavily on the face.

"Sister Annie, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I was just possessed. Help me, I don't want to be banned."

Yang Simin knelt on the ground, crawling to her feet, weeping profusely.

"Help you? I don't want to be implicated by you. You almost ruined the entire company. Get out! You don't need to work in the entertainment industry anymore!" Annie angrily kicked her away and slammed the door shut.

"Sister Annie, Sister Annie!"

Yang Simin collapsed on the ground, lost and helpless. She was just momentarily possessed, how could she forget that man was not someone she could provoke.

Suddenly remembering something, she took out her phone and made a call.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang, please help me. I'll do anything you want. I don't want to be banned."

"Bitch! You still have the nerve to call me. I should be settling accounts with you, not the other way around."

"Mr. Wang!"

"I was just out having fun with a woman, I don't want to get myself into trouble. That's Fourth Young Master Ye, do you think he's just an actor? Even I have to be respectful to him.

The Ye Corporation has already warned me, don't bring trouble to me. I have plenty of women, don't think you're that important." With that, he hung up the phone.

"Mr. Wang! Ah! Ah~~ You scoundrel, you old scoundrel!"

In the office, Yang Simin sat on the ground in a state of frenzy, but everything had already become a foregone conclusion.

Thus, the male and female leads of the idol drama that had recently exploded fell from grace. Their competitors didn't even bother to step on them.
