Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Reconciliation

Bo Tingshen picked up her ID card, which she had placed on the table, and scrutinized it carefully, including her somewhat simple-looking ID photo.

Ye Xian: “CEO, everything I’ve said is true. If you don’t believe me, you can check it out.”

“Of course I will.”

Ye Xian: “…”

Bo Tingshen: “What’s the deal with the suit and the note?”

“I came here today to explain this to you!” Ye Xian, “Actually, I only found out about it today myself. If I had known sooner, I definitely wouldn’t have been disrespectful to you!”

Bo Tingshen looked up from the ID card, his gaze deep as he watched her, “Speak.”

“I previously promised to personally deliver the suit to you and explain my relationship with Ye Shaowen. But on the day the suit was delivered from the dry cleaners, I happened to be recording ‘Leisurely Days’ and had no clothes to wear on set, so I asked Ye Shaowen to mail me a couple of items from the hotel. As it turned out, he received the clothes from the dry cleaners and asked me whose they were and how they got there. I told him the truth. As soon as he heard they were for you to clean, he thought you were bullying me, so he wrote that note, purely to back me up. There was no other implication, and I apologize for the misunderstanding. But I swear, I really didn’t know about it. If I had known, I would have explained it to you!”

As Ye Xian spoke, she raised two fingers earnestly.

Bo Tingshen looked into her sincere eyes, and something in his icy gaze seemed to gradually thaw, “Really?”

“Really, of course it’s true, truer than pearls! Ye Shaowen actually thinks of me as his lifesaver, and since we more or less grew up together, he looks at me as if I were his younger brother. My family is all in the rural backwaters, and I’m the only one who ventured into the big city. He just doesn’t want to see me bullied in the entertainment industry. As for those rumors about sugar daddies and lovers, it’s all sensationalism and fabrication by those reporters and the media. Ask them to provide solid evidence! Plus, Ye Shaowen likes women, ah. He’s surrounded by all sorts of ladies, so why would he suddenly take a fancy to me!”

Having poured out her heartfelt words, Ye Xian observed Bo Tingshen’s quiet gaze, as if he were searching her face for any sign of deceit.

Speaking of anything else, Ye Xian might feel a bit guilty, but when it comes to Ye Shaowen not being interested in her, she felt absolutely clear and confident, “Also, the time I had a pollen allergy, it wasn’t that I didn’t want to see you. Saying you were showing off was just an excuse. I feared you would be frightened by my ugly appearance at the time … so, CEO, you can hit me!”

Ye Xian said, squeezing her eyes, on the verge of tears, “In my ignorance, I thought you were deliberately cutting off my resources and thwarting my career to get back at Jiang Wanze. I actually said those harsh words to you and took such unreasonable actions. However you decide to hit or curse me today, I’ll definitely not fight back, just as long as you can cool down!”

Bo Tingshen put down her ID card, “And what about you?”

“Me?” Ye Xian was puzzled, “Are you asking about my feelings towards Ye Shaowen? Hahaha, that’s even more impossible. To me, Ye Shaowen is just a simple … silly guy. Even if I were gay, I wouldn’t like him. I would definitely go for a serious man with a strong masculine vibe! I’d never fall for his playboy ways.”

That scared her half to death; she almost blurted out ‘simple-minded older brother’.
