[Good heavens, could Ye Mo really be having an affair with Tianheng's general manager? Tianheng is practically making it clear they're going to back Ye Mo up!]

The last celebrity Tianheng followed was Yan Pingting, but Yan Pingting is their spokesperson. And what is Ye Mo's identity? It's unlikely Ye Mo would have gotten the Tianheng spokesperson deal, right?

[A spokesperson is absolutely out of the question. From the past to the present, Tianheng has never chosen a popular celebrity as its spokesperson. They've always selected artists with both virtue and talent. How could Ye Mo be worthy of that? Therefore, I'm more inclined to believe that Ye Mo and Tianheng's general manager really have some kind of relationship!]

[Wow, it seems Ye Mo has a very strong background. So why has he been smeared like this all these years?]

Netizens discussed the matter extensively, eventually concluding that Ye Mo was backed by the Ye Corporation, which was exactly the outcome Ye Mo wanted.

The next day, when Ye Mo returned to the film set, she noticed that the crew members were looking at her with strange expressions of surprise. They were also less casual with Ye Mo, and even the director, He Jianping, seemed hesitant to speak when he looked at Ye Mo.

Ye Mo remained calm and unaffected, after all, she had anticipated the current situation, and it was entirely her doing.

In this circle, having a background makes a huge difference between the two. If Ye Mo were to choose, she would naturally choose the one with a background.

Compared to Ye Mo's radiant and energetic appearance, Jiang Yiben and his agent Zhu Hong didn't look so good. Jiang Yiben was also much more irritable today, and Ye Mo heard him yelling at his assistant several times. In the end, it was his agent Zhu Hong who calmed him down.

Ye Mo couldn't help but sneer at his pathetic state.

"Believe it or not, Jiang Yiben is kicking himself right now, regretting how rude he was to me yesterday," Ye Mo said to Zhou Xiaoyu, then sighed, "You might think that's the difference between having a background and not having one."

If Ye Mo didn't have the Ye Corporation and Tianheng behind him, Jiang Yiben would never have regretted it, and he would never be as uneasy as he is now.

Jiang Yiben's condition clearly affected his filming today. He filmed several takes without success, which angered the hot-tempered Director He, who eventually had to take a break.

Watching Jiang Yiben throw the script down and leave, Ye Mo couldn't help but click his tongue twice and said to Zhou Xiaoyu, "This guy's got a low tolerance for stress; he broke down so easily."

Zhou Xiaoyu couldn't help but glance at her several times, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back, "Isn't it all because of you, Sister Momo, that people are so upset? The worse the photos are taken, the better you perform, making them completely lose their composure."

"Ugh, it's so hot!" Completely oblivious to the fact that he hadn't done anything wrong, Ye Mo stood up and said, "I'm going outside for some fresh air."

Today they were filming an indoor scene. There was no air conditioning in the room, and the house was small, so all the heat was trapped inside. Ye Mo was already sensitive to heat, and now he was sweating profusely. He couldn't stay in that room for even a second longer.

It was stuffy inside, but much cooler outside, especially in well-ventilated areas.

Ye Mo found a spot in the film studio to squat down—it was a small bamboo grove behind an artificial hill, right in the breezy spot. Because the artificial hill had running water and a small fountain on top, water droplets would fall down as you squatted down, which was incredibly comfortable.

This is the perfect spot Ye Mo found; it's cool and deserted, so she can be completely unreserved here without fear of being seen.

[The crew next door made a huge fool of themselves today.] 888 is sharing some gossip about the crew next door, " The Tale of Scheming," with Ye Mo.

Ye Mo's recent source of happiness has all come from the film crew next door. The reality next door is practically a " Tale of Scheming," with the director, lead actor, and supporting actors all having their own agendas. Who wouldn't say it's awesome after watching it?

In just over half a month, not many plays were staged, but a lot of jokes were made, which amused Ye Mo, who had Gossip System.

888 reported: [This morning, the financial backer of the " Tale of Scheming " drama crew visited the set with his business partners, just in time to see the female lead and the second female lead getting into a fight. The financial backer's face turned green on the spot.]

Ye Mo asked curiously, "Where's Director Liu? Did he turn green?"

888: [I wasn't initially being cuckolded, but the moment I saw their sugar daddy, my face turned green.]

Ye Mo couldn't help but laugh at the thought of that scene, but at the same time, he felt a little regretful that he hadn't been able to witness it firsthand.

Just as Ye Mo was thinking this, she suddenly heard two footsteps approaching. Ye Mo didn't pay attention at first, until the two footsteps stopped near her.

Ye Mo:???

But what surprised her even more was what followed.

"That Ye Mo, I've never heard of her having the Ye Corporation backing her. You said she also has the surname Ye, could she possibly have some connection with the Ye Corporation?"

Some irritable voices reached Ye Mo's ears. The voices sounded very familiar; they were none other than Jiang Yiben Ye Mo, the male protagonist of Ye Mo's novel " The Tale of Intrigue."

Ye Mo: What a coincidence, we've run into each other again.

After Jiang Yiben finished speaking, Ye Mo heard another voice, which was Jiang Yiben's agent, Zhu Hong.

Zhu Hong said, "Calm down. We can't be sure if Ye Mo is backed by the Ye Corporation yet."

Jiang Yiben was furious. "Last night, the Ye Corporation's official Weibo account directly followed her. Doesn't that prove she's backed by..."

Relying on the Ye Corporation?!

Upon hearing this, Zhu Hong was speechless. She sighed and said, "You regret it now? Who told you to lay a hand on someone yesterday?"

Jiang Yiben: "... How was I supposed to know she had such a powerful background? Nobody in the industry has ever mentioned it."

If he knew about this, what would he do?

"No, I really didn't do anything to her yesterday. She was the one who seduced me first!" Jiang Yiben suddenly said. "You know, she's so beautiful. I couldn't resist the temptation, so I reached out and grabbed her hand."

Hearing this, Ye Mo scoffed inwardly. "Heh, you couldn't resist the temptation and grabbed her hand, then you couldn't resist tickling her palm, huh?"

"But I really don't like her. I have absolutely no feelings for her. If she hadn't deliberately seduced me, I wouldn't have even touched her hand!"

Jiang Yiben said confidently, then looked around to make sure no one was watching. He then mustered his courage, reached out and hugged the person in front of him, saying tenderly, "Don't you know who I love? Zhu Hong, the only person I love is you."

Upon hearing this, Ye Mo was first puzzled, then shocked.

Ye Mo:??!!! What did I just hear? Is this something I can hear?

[Ding-dong!]

[Congratulations, host, for achieving the "Wherever there's gossip, I'll be there" achievement. Gossip Points +25]

A mechanical, monotonous announcement echoed in Ye Mo's mind, followed immediately by 888's excited voice: [That's right, host, this is Jiang Yiben and Zhu Hong's secret. They started dating three years ago and became boyfriend and girlfriend!]

Ye Mo: Wow, this really surprised her.

During filming, Zhu Hong visited the set several times. Her interactions with Jiang Yiben seemed like those of a normal agent and artist, and there was absolutely no indication that they were in a romantic relationship.

" Sister Hong, baby~ You're the only one I love. I was bewitched by Ye Mo, she's so beautiful, that's why I was seduced by her!"

Jiang Yiben's voice sounded as sweet as honey, "I promise, you're the only person I love, don't be angry."

Ye Mo:... It's fun to watch the drama unfold, but I'd be even happier if I wasn't the one being gossiped about.

Meanwhile, as Jiang Yiben was coaxing Zhu Hong more and more gently, 888 was sharing the gossip it had just heard with Ye Mo: [ Zhu Hong and Jiang Yiben have been together for three years. Because Jiang Yiben is her boyfriend, Zhu Hong is extremely devoted to his career. Jiang Yiben's current success is definitely inseparable from Zhu Hong's help!]
