Chapter 416: Chapter 416 The Things the CEO Does Behind the Scenes

“What?”

Ye Xian laughed as if she had heard some funny joke. “Are you joking?”

“I’m not joking.” Pang Kai sat down. “Do you still remember the uproar you caused with Cheng Jingshu in ‘Business World’?”

“Why bring that up all of a sudden?”

“Cheng Jingshu was personally chosen by Old Master Bo as Young Master Jiang’s fiancee. Even if she got into trouble, Old Master Bo would protect her. All the senior executives of Star Entertainment agreed to sacrifice you to protect Cheng Jingshu. After all, whether it was family background or status, Cheng Jingshu at that time was out of your league. But contrary to everyone’s expectations, the CEO went against all advice and with one word, fired Cheng Jingshu, stripping her of the title of Mrs. Bo, the second lady in waiting.”

“Having been by the CEO’s side for so many years, I’ve never seen him listen to anyone’s advice, except he has deep respect for Old Master Bo and tries his best to accommodate his requests. But that one time was the first I saw the CEO ignore Old Master Bo’s opinion.”

Ye Xian was stunned for a moment. “Yeah, I was very grateful to him for that.”

If he hadn’t been trying to avenge Jiang Wanze by winning my favor on purpose.

Pang Kai: “Also, there was a male celebrity named Zhang Hao who was suddenly blacklisted a while ago. You know about that, right?”

Zhang Hao? Luan Xiaoyao’s boyfriend, the male celebrity who purposefully put a needle in her sushi, and she knocked out his teeth with a baseball bat.

“I know him, but he… was blacklisted?”

Pang Kai: “By the CEO.”

“Heh~” Ye Xian chuckled softly. “It seems that blacklisting people on a whim is his hobby, huh? What did Zhang Hao do to anger him?”

Pang Kai: “Because of you, because Zhang Hao offended you.”

“Me?”

Ye Xian frowned, thinking back to how Zhang Hao had tried to make things difficult for her. The CEO had indeed been there and had even beaten up Zhang Hao, but why would he blacklist Zhang Hao? If it was to win my favor, he would have done it openly, not behind the scenes…

Before Ye Xian could figure it out, Pang Kai added: “Also, the trouble you stirred up with Qiao Yahan in ‘Leisurely Days’ was smoothed over by the CEO for you.”

“Qiao Yahan was also him?”

No wonder, she had felt it strange. Qiao Yahan slipped on a banana peel she had thrown on the show and drank carry’s foot-washing water in front of tens of millions of viewers. She thought she was done for, as Qiao Yahan’s spoiled nature would surely have her father find ways to get revenge, but there had been no follow-up. She had assumed the Devil Tree allergy incident was her doing, but it turned out to be Meng Jin and had nothing to do with her. It had been settled after all.

Pang Kai: “And the promotion you did for Dangshan Pineapple on the show, the CEO personally placed ten thousand orders on Zero Degree.”

“Ten thousand orders?!”

Ye Xian was shocked. “Does he really like pineapple that much?”

Pang Kai: “…Are you stupid, or is the CEO stupid?”

“I’m stupid, so are you trying to fool this idiot?”

“Why would I lie to you? The CEO instructed me, and I personally had people make the purchases. The order is still here! Large trucks came directly, a box for every employee at the Imperial Capital company and subsidiaries!”

Pang Kai showed her the order. “Don’t go saying that the CEO bought them as employee welfare because the Dangshan Pineapple is good and cheap. That day was Children’s Day! It was clearly to respond to your promotion.”

Ye Xian stared at the order, dumbfounded. She hadn’t known about this, and he hadn’t told her either.

“This… what’s the reason after all? His outward kindness to me, could it really not be because he wants to avenge Wanze, deliberately gaining my favor first? But why make these unnecessary efforts behind the scenes?”
