Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 233: This is definitely a great show!
Chapter 233: This is definitely a great show!
Yourong Xia clearly wasn’t ugly, becoming the school belle at any school where Xia Ye wasn’t around wouldn’t have been a problem.
But after netizens had seen Xia Ye’s stunning beauty, they were unimpressed when they saw Yourong Xia...
Consequently, most of the comments followed this trend.
Even if they didn’t call her ugly, they said she was too ordinary.
Yourong Xia suffered an unprecedented huge blow.
Of course, she wanted to fight back, so she began to smear Xia Ye with various revelations in the comments section.
For example, claiming that Xia Ye was a delinquent who smoked, drank, dyed her hair, and had even been sent to juvenile detention for fighting, among other things.
But then she discovered that every one of the comments she posted slandering Xia Ye was reported and deleted within minutes.
As soon as she posted, it was deleted, but then she would post again. After several repetitions, she found she couldn’t send out any messages anymore, and when she checked, she couldn’t even log into her account!
[Your account has been reported and banned.]
Yourong used an alternate account to log in and looked up Jiang Jewelry’s official announcement on Weibo.
All the comments she had previously posted had been completely cleaned up, except for the one where she had posted a selfie claiming she was a hundred times better looking than Xia Ye, which was still there, bombarded by netizens with scathing criticism!
Yourong Xia: ...
Her eyes reddened with anger, and when a servant knocked on the door wanting to enter, she directly grabbed a cushion from behind her and threw it at the door.
The cushion, with its hard plastic big cartoon eyes, made quite a startling noise when it struck the wooden door, causing the servant at the door to shrink back and meekly turn away.
The young lady seemed to be under some evil spell, growing more and more deranged...
Yourong Xia chewed on her fingernail cap irritably, while her other hand quickly scrolled through the WeChat contacts on her phone.
The screen cast a murky light on her face.
Finally, her finger stopped on Sister Manman’s WeChat.
She opened it and typed out a few cryptic messages to send.
The first message.
May You Have Sunny Skies: Sister Manman, I saw the news that Jiang Jewelry’s spokesperson has finally been decided, congratulations~~
She knew full well that Sister Manman wasn’t the spokesperson, but she did it deliberately.
Waiting about two minutes, after the messages couldn’t be taken back, she sent the second message.
May You Have Sunny Skies: I’m really sorry, I just saw the news, the spokesperson actually turned out to be my sister? I really don’t know what Uncle Jiang was thinking, Sister Manman clearly has such great popularity and looks so beautiful...
After sending these two messages, Yourong Xia finally put away her phone with satisfaction.
Sister Manman was busy filming and attending events every day, so she might not see her phone for a while, but once she did, she would definitely not take this lying down.
Yourong Xia got back into bed, her eyes fixated on the ceiling.
Xia Ye wasn’t even a celebrity, who was it that kept reporting her to get her banned???

Inside the CEO’s office.
Jiang Xuan checked all the comments under the Weibo post once again, and seeing that they were unanimously praising Xia Ye for her beauty and charisma, he nodded in approval.
After exiting the comments section, he received two ’Your report has been successful’ system notifications.
The door of the office was ajar, and half of Shen Jing’s face appeared through the gap.
The CEO was indeed working too hard.
He had seen the CEO busily handling business on his phone for over two hours.
Despite his reluctance to interrupt, Shen Jing still knocked on the door.
Jiang Xuan looked over expressionlessly.
Shen Jing spoke softly, "CEO, Mr. Xia Xian from the Xia Family is waiting for you in the guest reception room downstairs."
Jiang Xuan put his phone in his pocket, "I know."
Ever since Jiang Xuan helped Xia Xian retrieve the batch of goods stuck at the border customs, the two had their first collaboration.
Jiang Jewelry had extensive connections at the border, with influence over several key channels, and Xia Xian’s side offered diamonds that were both high quality and priced competitively, so there was interest from both parties to continue their collaboration.
When Jiang Xuan walked out the door, Shen Jing stood respectfully by, nodding his head.
As Jiang Xuan passed by, it seemed as if a glimmer shone briefly from his earlobe.
But before he could take a closer look, the CEO had already headed toward the elevator.
Since the VIP elevator was under regular maintenance, Jiang Xuan used the regular staff elevator. Hardly had the elevator descended one floor when three or four female employees got on.
Jiang Xuan wouldn’t take the regular staff elevator, except for the VIP elevator being under maintenance.
Therefore, the female employees never dared to imagine that they could meet CEO Jiang in the elevator, even if it was descending from the top floor.
When the elevator doors opened and they saw CEO Jiang Xuan, tall and straight, hands in his pockets, standing as firm as a pine, not a single one of them could keep their hearts from racing.
Holding their documents, they greeted the CEO with lowered heads and then obediently entered the elevator, standing behind him.
They were low-ranking employees who didn’t dare to stand in front of the CEO, but more importantly, standing behind the CEO allowed them to freely admire their own CEO.
——’The CEO has such broad shoulders!’
——’The CEO is so tall!’
——’The CEO seems to be wearing a special fragrance!’
——’Eh? Does the CEO have... an earring on his ear?!’
——"Did the president always have pierced ears? I wonder what style of earring he’s wearing?"
——"If I move a little bit more to the side... I’ll be able to see it... just a little more... It must be a pair of very simple yet fashionable earrings, emanating an aura of abstinence..."
A few seconds later, all the female employees burst into an intense emotional turmoil simultaneously.
——"A diamond-studded kitty cat?!"
Over at Xia Xian’s end, remembering Little Tiangao’s piercings still irked him.
Even if it was for an endorsement, couldn’t they make clip-on earrings instead?
As a seasoned "sister" enthusiast with absolutely no principles, he felt that President Jiang’s actions were a clear sign of not caring for his little sister!
Otherwise, why would President Jiang only pierce his little sister’s ears and not his own?!
Right after that, Jiang Xuan pushed open the door of the meeting room—
Light poured in from behind him, casting his diamond-studded kitty cat earrings in a dazzling shine.
Xia Xian looked over and was nearly blinded by the glare.
He raised his hand to his forehead, barely making out the earring on President Jiang’s ear...
Did President Jiang get pierced too?
And... was it the same earring as Little Tiangao’s???

Jian Manman finished her scheduled appearance and left the television station building through the back door.
But who knew there’d be reporters waiting at the back too? As soon as she stepped out, the camera flashes went off.
"Look, Jian Manman has arrived!"
The reporters started recording with their phones and crowded in close.
"Have you seen the new endorser officially announced by Jiang Jewelry?"
"What do you think about it?"
"Are you okay with losing to a newcomer with no experience?"
"Do you also think Xia Ye is more suitable than you?"
Jian Manman kept walking forward, her face terrifyingly grim.
Jia Mingmei struggled to block the reporters behind her, and although she was a female manager, she had to show her tough side to protect their Sister Manman.
"Sister Manman has a full schedule recently, and there were no plans to endorse Jiang Jewelry. All this is just media misunderstanding!"
The reporters weren’t so easily fooled: "But we clearly saw Jian Manman several times near Jiang Jewelry’s premises!"
Jia Mingmei: "That was just passing by for other matters. Sister Manman’s current agenda is all in Capital City; please don’t overinterpret it!"
Saving face was a must, and at this moment, they had to deny everything with a stiff upper lip, making sure the reporters didn’t find out that Sister Manman had racked her brains trying to endorse for Jiang Jewelry, only to be turned away.
Finally getting past the reporters, Jia Mingmei quickly got into the nanny car.
Once inside, she heard Jian Manman biting her lip, her tone rather unfriendly, "Did President Jiang really let that little girl endorse? And the contract is signed?"
Jia Mingmei took a quick glance behind her, gesturing for her to calm down, she closed the car door and urged the assistant to drive away immediately.
Once they were far from the reporters, Jia Mingmei relaxed a little.
Letting out a sigh, she turned back to her colleague.
Jian Manman was scrolling through her phone at that moment. She had been upset ever since hearing the official announcement, and she had just barely calmed down when those reporters stirred it all up again!
Jia Mingmei tried to console her tactfully: "Let it go. Didn’t you say that President Jiang had personally mentioned he would choose Xia Xing’s sister as the endorser? She’s a pampered heiress with a strong background and has now hooked up with President Jiang. We can’t compete with her. It’s just a small endorsement, probably just fleeting hype. It’ll blow over soon, let’s just accept it..."
Jian Manman, while angry at the online praises for Xia Ye, was considering Jia Mingmei’s words.
Just as she was about to convince herself to let it go, inadvertently, she saw a WeChat message from Xia Yourong.
The hand holding her phone started to tremble!
She knew Xia Yourong was no easy opponent; she had encountered Xia Yourong a few times when she was with Xia Xing.
Back then, just graduated from film school and virtually unknown, she had seen Xia Yourong’s arrogant demeanor as the Xia Family’s proud daughter.
But later, when she became famous, Xia Yourong’s attitude towards her did a one-eighty, sweetly calling her "Sister Manman."
Although Jian Manman knew that Xia Yourong’s first message must have been sent to her on purpose, it still made her very angry!
Just because Xia Ye took her endorsement, even Xia Yourong dared to mock her!
Jian Manman’s delicate hand pounded on the leather seat: "No! Even if it’s short-lived, I can’t let that Xia Ye have her moment!"
Jia Mingmei’s smile was somewhat forced: "But this isn’t up to us... If we’re too obvious, won’t the reporters say we’re acting out of jeal..." She quickly glanced at Jian Manman and swallowed the rest of her sentence.
Jian Manman skimmed through the recent hot news on her phone.
The best way to cool someone’s momentum quickly is to buy trending spots for others and shift the public’s focus.
Many celebrities also use this method to make the public forget their scandals by opting to buy trending spots for others.
It’s basically the same principle.
But Jia Mingmei was right, she couldn’t buy trending spots for herself, or else the media would definitely say it’s deliberate. Then whom should she support...?
At that moment, her gaze fell upon a hot piece of news from a few days ago.
