Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart-Chapter 84 - : Ye Xian Wins an Award
Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Ye Xian Wins an Award
“Afraid of offending people, right? After all, it’s not exactly a prestigious award.”
“Are you kidding? Xiangfei Video was just acquired by President Bo, and he dotes on his little brother so much. If you round it up, Jiang Wanze is practically the young master of Xiangfei. Who would he be afraid of offending?”
[What the hell, how could this Screaming Night be so set up? Why make my brother announce it—isn’t this making my brother the bad guy?]
[Yeah, indeed, QAQ Brother Ze is so kind-hearted. He probably can’t bear to announce the winner’s name, right? After all, it’s quite a hurtful thing to do.]
Jiang Wanze hesitated to announce the winner, which was beyond Cheng Jingshu’s expectations. She looked at the increasingly loud celebrity section and the host, whose face was showing a hint of urgency, then turned toward the microphone, smiled faintly, and opened the card in her hand.
“Next, I announce that the winner of the fifth Screaming Night Rotten Sour Plum Award from Xiangfei Video is…”
“Ye Xian!”
As the woman’s shrill tone ended, the bright spotlight on the roof of the Exhibition Hall ‘boom’—landed on Ye Xian with incredible precision and glare.
Cary’s happily shaking leg suddenly stopped.
Lin Yan turned his head to look at Ye Xian.
A moment of silence filled the venue, so quiet that the only sound was the 3D video on stage reporting: “Ye Xian, with the lowest-rated web series in the history of Douban, ‘Everyone Has Superpower’, and the support of over a million ‘black fans’ on Weibo, Zhihu, Tieba, and various forums, is honored with this Screaming Night’s Rotten Sour Plum Award…”
When Ye Xian looked up from his phone to the blinding white lights, he finally understood why Screaming Night had notified him at the last minute.
“So it’s him…”

“Expected, but I didn’t think he would come to the ceremony.”
“Maybe he’s clueless~”
“Truly deserved.”
“He’s definitely going to storm off now. With his temperament, he might even curse people out!”
[Good thing it’s Ye Xian and not someone else haha, if it were someone else, I might actually feel a bit sorry for them.]
[Ye Xian and this award is just too fitting, right? It’s like it was tailor-made for him.]
[Seeing that it’s Ye Xian, I can rest easy. It wasn’t in vain that I got all my aunts and uncles to vote for him on WeChat.]
[I love this kind of Screaming Night that puts him in an awkward position right to his face. Already got my popcorn ready to watch his drama unfold!]
[Although I admit he is quite good-looking, I have to say the award really suits him. Both his acting and personality are terrible, and it’s no wonder he has so many haters.]
[I bet he could cry out of frustration~]
When the host announced ‘Rotten Sour Plum Award,’ both the online viewers and the stars present felt a bit awkward, worried that the one called out would be their favorite, their collaborator, or someone they were on good terms with. They would have to show pity or console—but when the person was Ye Xian, it was a cause for universal celebration.
Everyone acted as if they were suddenly on the same side, pointing and whispering about Ye Xian, with their gazes filled with either schadenfreude or undisguised mockery and scorn.
Cary listened to the surrounding chattering, feeling an unaccountable irritation. Oddly enough, even though he also disliked Ye Xian and wanted to see him humiliated, when it actually happened, he felt an urge to curse.
“What kind of crap Screaming Night is this, all stealthy and sly!”
“Why should you get this award? You’re still one of us from FOR. Are they allowed to bully you whenever they want?”
The Exhibition Hall was dark, with only Ye Xian basked in the light, like a small prey suddenly thrown into the midst of an onslaught, bearing the brunt of all the glaring and mockery.
