The twenty-ninth scoop: What gossip? Let me take twenty-nine bites...

[Changxing], which is the company Qiao Jiaojiao is currently in, is considered a large company in the industry. It has produced many big stars, but its reputation is not very good. It is said that in order to make its artists famous, the company will resort to some unscrupulous means, such as making artists sleep with investors in exchange for roles. Moreover, as soon as the company's artists lose their value, they will be abandoned immediately.

This is clearly the case with Qiao Jiaojiao's current situation.

Actually, when Qiao Jiaojiao wanted to switch jobs to [Changxing], Shen Yan tried to dissuade her, because he had heard many bad rumors about [Changxing]. Unfortunately, Qiao Jiaojiao was misled by the bright future that [Changxing] painted for her, and she was determined to pursue a better career, so she didn't listen to him at all.

Now that things have come to this point, Qiao Jiaojiao is asking him for help, what can he do to help? This is really putting him in a difficult position.

"Jiaojiao, I really can't help you!" Shen Yan said.

"Why can't I help?" Qiao Jiaojiao asked urgently. "Isn't Ye Mo, one of your subordinates, backed by the Ye Corporation? Why don't you have her plead with the general manager of the Ye Corporation for me? Wouldn't that solve the problem?"

Completely taken aback by her words, Shen Yan was momentarily speechless, unsure whether to be shocked or incredulous. He couldn't help but ask, "How could you say such a thing?"

Qiao Jiaojiao didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said. She said matter-of-factly, "Brother Shen, you're her manager. As long as you ask, she'll definitely help! Brother Shen, please talk to her for me and beg her to save me!"

"I don't want to be unable to be a star in the future, I won't retire from the entertainment industry! Please ask Ye Mo to help me!"

Shen Yan laughed in exasperation, and said firmly, "Jiaojiao, give up. I will never agree to this. Ye Mo doesn't know you, and I won't bother her with your affairs."

"Why?!" Qiao Jiaojiao demanded frantically, screaming, "Why didn't you help me? You Mingming have helped me!"

"I know, you're definitely holding a grudge against me for switching jobs to ' Changxing ' back then, that's why you're unwilling to help me... But can you blame me for that?"

"You were completely useless back then. You couldn't get me any resources at all. All you did was make me learn acting. I wanted to become a big star, I wanted to be famous. Was that wrong?"

How can you refuse to help me because of this?

Qiao Jiaojiao's voice sounded somewhat insane, hysterical.

Hearing her words, Shen Yan said with some disappointment, "So this is how you've always seen me?"

He sighed and said, "I'll say it again: there's nothing I can do to help you with this. Like you said, I'm a useless agent!"

"Brother Shen, that's not what I meant, I just..." Qiao Jiaojiao tried to explain, but then she heard a busy tone coming from her phone.

She immediately dialed back, only to hear a busy signal.

Qiao Jiaojiao stared at her phone in disbelief, muttering, "They blocked me? They actually blocked me?!"

Her eyes widened in anger, and she suddenly slammed her phone down, screaming wildly, "You're all like this! The manager is like this, Shen Yan, you're like this too!"

"Just you wait, you'll regret this! You'll regret this!"

Her expression looked twisted and ferocious, her eyes filled with hatred.

***

Shen Yan did not tell Ye Mo about Qiao Jiaojiao's phone call, but Ye Mo knew the contents of the call clearly through 888.

"Has she forgotten how she always gives me the cold shoulder?" Ye Mo found it somewhat amusing. "Does she think I'm such a magnanimous person?"

If you think she'll help, then Qiao Jiaojiao doesn't understand her at all.

"I'm the kind of person who holds grudges the most, okay?" Ye Mo was quite self-aware. "I'm not the kind of person who repays evil with kindness."

She only knows how to seek revenge.

Ye Mo shook his head, putting Qiao Jiaojiao's matter out of his mind, and packed up to go to the film set.

When she and Zhou Xiaoyu arrived at the film studio and passed by their film crew's location, they were not surprised to see that the place was desolate and lacked its former liveliness.

After all, with the main character and the second female lead embroiled in such a scandal, this drama, although it has only just started filming, seems to be doomed. Whether it can continue filming is still unknown.

Ye Mo continued walking forward and arrived at their film crew. Their crew was bustling with activity, Director He was shouting until his voice was hoarse with a megaphone.

After filming a scene, Ye Mo went to get her makeup and styling done. The stylist who was doing her hair was excitedly gossiping with her about the drama from the next set.

"It's a pity we didn't see it with our own eyes last night. I heard that the lead actress and the second lead actress from the film crew next door had a really fierce fight. They both broke each other's faces, and now the news about them getting plastic surgery is still trending on social media..."

This incident is a classic case of hurting both sides 800 and 1000. Neither of them had admitted to having plastic surgery before, but this fight exposed it—how could it not be exposed? There's even video footage showing their implants being knocked askew.

Ye Mo pretended not to know. "Oh, is that so? It's a pity I slept very soundly last night and don't know anything."

Stylist: "There was also a ' Divine Calculator ' there last night..."

Upon hearing the words "Divine Calculator," Ye Mo felt a chill run down his spine, fearing that someone would discover that the "Divine Calculator" was actually him.

The stylist, unaware of Ye Mo's thoughts, launched into a long, unrestrained monologue. "At first, the streamer saw the Divine Calculator teller acting suspiciously and assumed he was a thief, so he followed him. Little did he know he'd actually recorded that infamous scene of catching someone in the act of adultery..."

The stylist sounded excited, clearly a fan of gossip.

Listening to her words, Ye Mo asked 888: "[888, how many Gossip Points did I get yesterday?]"

888: [I have 350 points now!]

Ye Mo's eyes lit up, "[So many?]"

So her risky trip yesterday wasn't a complete waste; over 300 points of Gossip Points " are enough for her to enter the Role Immersion Room several times over.

Sure enough, big Gossip Points." Small scandals like someone liking to smell smelly socks only bring her two or three Gossip Points, which she completely disregards.

[Host, the stylist who did your hair...] 888 suddenly said.

Ye Mo reflexively perked up his ears: [What? What happened to the stylist?]

Is there some scandal involving the stylist too?

Chapter 29 The Twenty-Ninth Melon What melon? I took twenty-nine bites of it...

[... This stylist has a piece of vegetable stuck in her left tooth! Turns out she had a vegetarian steamed bun for breakfast!]

888 said in a surprised tone.

[...] Ye Mo: [888, don't breathe so heavily next time you speak.] Otherwise, she would think it was going to reveal some shocking, earth-shattering juicy gossip.

888 asked, puzzled: [Host, 888 is a system, and systems don't breathe.]

[...] Ye Mo was speechless for a moment, then said from the bottom of his heart: [The Hua Country language is profound and extensive, bye-bye. As a product of high technology, I think you really need to study our Hua Country language in depth.]

888 is a good system that listens to opinions. Upon hearing this, it immediately replied, "[Then 888 will go and learn right away. 888 will definitely become the best Gossip System!]"

After becoming the best system, will we get to eat even more gossip?

Ye Mo chuckled at the thought that had come to him.

"Miss Ye, all done." The stylist put the last hairpin in Ye Mo's hair, took a step back, and carefully examined Ye Mo's outfit to see if there was anything else that needed to be added.

However she looked at it, Ye Mo's outfit was absolutely perfect, with no need for any modifications or additions.

"Waaaaah," the stylist exclaimed, covering her face with pure delight, "I simply can't believe that such a perfect look was created by me!"
