Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon's Sweetheart novel Chapter 786

Chapter 786 -787: You Are More Beautiful than the Stars

Bo Tingshen opened the balcony curtains and took the juicer from the kitchen, placing fresh strawberries inside it. As he juiced, he watched the youth on the rocking chair.

The youth rested their hands under their chin, gazing intently at the man unintentionally exuding an elegant and valuable demeanor.

Sometimes being a werewolf is really great, so great that… she deeply wished to live with him forever, but she feared he was just pretending, waiting to fatten her up before slaughtering her.

The stars scattered across the earth blinked towards the little woman on the balcony, and as Ye Xian turned around, she began counting them one by one, pulling her mind back to the past in a daze.

Since childhood, she had adored shiny, glowing things, so she purposefully pursued a path in jewelry design, dreaming of creating the world’s most beautiful and dazzling piece of jewelry.

Back then, her family was happy, and her academics were flourishing; everything around her was just right, as if she was the happiest person under the sky.

But unexpectedly, disaster struck one day when her father’s company encountered problems. A business partner came to their home and accidentally pushed her father down the stairs, causing high-level paralysis, while her mother succumbed to a disease brought on by excessive grief.

She traveled miles from France only to be met with a severance letter upon her arrival, stating that she was not their biological child. At first, she thought her parents had made it up to not burden her, but it turned out to be true.

A pair of strangers had pampered her in a honey jar, nurturing her with great care, but when trouble arose, they chose to sever ties with her—how could this be possible…

Having grown up in such a comfortable environment, she was shocked by the sudden drastic changes in her family and the astronomical debt. She didn’t know how to handle it.

Until one day, a talent scout discovered her on Weibo and promised to help pay off all debts if she signed a contract to become an artist.

She eventually gave up the pursuit of jewelry design.

Because she realized that instead of chasing the light, it was better to become the light itself.

Those who had sheltered her from storms had fallen, and now it was her turn to grow into a towering tree, to provide shelter for them.

A cup of sweet strawberry juice was placed in front of her, and Bo Tingshen watched her concentrated expression. “What are you thinking about?”

“I’m thinking, only by becoming a beam of light can I illuminate the world I want to protect.”

Light was the perfect metaphor for him.

Bo Tingshen sat beside her, quietly watching the youth gaze at the starlit sky.

But becoming a beam of light wasn’t so easy. No sooner had she begun her career than she was elevated to a high position, watched by millions, every step she took was like walking on a knife’s edge, trembling with fear, stepping gingerly as if on thin ice. After enduring immense hardships, she had become capable of appearing calm even on the stage of the Rotten Sour Plum Awards, but inside, a fragile little girl still lived.

That little girl had not yet achieved her dream.

That little girl felt lost and aggrieved when people online called her a “vase,” “gold digger,” or accused her of advancing her career through her body.

That little girl was also scared when dealing with the various plots and traps set by people.

“Just like where there is light, there will also be shadows, and standing in the shadows can be very painful.”

Ye Xian murmured, turning her head and, unintentionally, catching the man beside her staring intently at her, which seemed odd. “Werewolf, why aren’t you looking at the stars? Why are you watching me?”

“I am looking at the stars.”

Ye Xian looked into his eyes, reflecting only her image, “?”
