“Xu Mo, isn’t your company in finance?”
“I happen to have some spare cash, but I’m clueless about management. Since you’re the expert, could you help me out?”
Song Yixue said with a radiant smile.
Helping out was just an excuse.
Getting closer was the real goal.
However, these matters weren’t Xu Mo’s responsibility anyway.
But he believed the other party could read between the lines.
Rumors had it that Xu Mo was a playboy, wasn’t he?
Before falling for Shen Manni, he was quite the womanizer.
Not saying it’s definite, but what if?
That sweet, seductive voice was really hard to resist.
Fortunately, Xu Mo was used to it.
He smiled and took a business card out of his pocket, handing it over.
“Sure, if you’re interested.”
Song Yixue was momentarily stunned.
Did this really just work?!
Her eyes lit up, and she eagerly reached out to take it.
“Hehe… I’m very interested, big sister.”
She glanced at the gold-plated business card with its high-end design.
It was made of real gold.
Generally, Xu Mo wasn’t one to hand out his business cards so easily.
Unless the person was of exceptionally high status.
Of course, someone like Song Yixue wouldn’t care much about the gold itself.
What she wanted was the phone number!
Yes, it had Xu Mo’s phone number printed on it.
Song Yixue tucked the card away, unaware that the assistant director didn’t know.
The phone number on the card wasn’t Xu Mo’s.
To be precise, Xu Mo had handed his SIM card to his assistant, Jiang Jiajia, to avoid being bothered.
When there’s work, the assistant handles it.
When there’s none, he just chills.
As for this detail, Xu Mo couldn’t be bothered to explain.
Song Yixue wanted to say more, to get to know Xu Mo better.
But with a ‘ding,’ the elevator doors opened.
Song Yixue’s lips twitched in frustration. Damn it.
Why so fast!
She had finally run into such a handsome guy.
She wanted to spend more time with him.
“Xu Mo, please follow me. The whole crew is over here…”
Song Yixue swayed her hips as she walked ahead, leading the way.
Her figure was quite eye-catching.
Xu Mo chose to ignore it.
He was busy scanning the surroundings, thinking about how to make Lin Fan slap himself later.
This was an incredibly luxurious duplex apartment.
A group of people were already waiting there, some holding lights, others cameras.
Director Liu and Lin An'an were wearing headphones, watching the monitor.
They pointed at one spot, then shook their heads at another, clearly dissatisfied.
Suddenly, someone nudged Director Liu.
He took off his headphones, and the person whispered something in his ear.
Only then did Director Liu turn around.
As he turned, everyone in the room paused what they were doing.
They all followed Director Liu’s gaze.
Song Yixue walked in, leading a super handsome guy.
Behind him was a strikingly beautiful female assistant.
Everyone was stunned.
Which female celebrity was here for a cameo?
An Youyi’s looks were exceptionally outstanding.
No wonder they thought that.
The guy Song Yixue brought in was so handsome it was almost unfair.
He had the looks, the charm, the height—everything.
A perfect novel protagonist.
In fact, there were some dissenting voices in the group.
They thought Lin Fan had done a good job yesterday and was also good-looking.
Most importantly, he didn’t have to recite awkward lines like “one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.”
They could edit it in post-production.
But hearing it live felt weird.
However, these were just small complaints and grumbles.
They wouldn’t dare say it to Director Liu’s face.
He was the director, the capitalist.
They were just workers.
But now that they saw Xu Mo in person, they realized how wrong their previous thoughts were.
Especially some of the female colleagues.
They thought Xu Mo’s acting was bad.
But it didn’t matter.
In this era where looks dominate, being handsome was enough.
Handsome was justice.
The way they looked at Xu Mo was as if they wanted to devour him.
But their eyes also held a certain respect.
Director Liu hurried over.
“Xu Mo, you’re finally here!”
“I was adjusting the layout inside and couldn’t personally greet you. I’m really sorry.”
Xu Mo nodded.
He understood.
He didn’t care about these formalities.
From the moment he entered, his eyes were searching for the “Crooked-Mouth Dragon King.”
Xu Mo didn’t find the Crooked-Mouth Dragon King.
Instead, he saw Lin An'an.
She was wearing a light red dress that didn’t reach her knees, revealing her milky-white legs without stockings.
After being meticulously styled by a professional makeup artist, Lin An'an’s features looked even more exquisite and captivating.
The difference between no makeup, light makeup, and full glam was like night and day.
Even Xu Mo couldn’t help but feel a slight flutter in his heart when he glanced at her.
But he quickly brushed it off.
【Sigh… she’s Lin Fan’s woman】
【She’s the female lead, and you’re the villain. Don’t even think about it】
【You’re just a passerby in her world… Wait, why haven’t I seen the protagonist yet?】
【Did I come to the wrong place?】
“Ding, congratulations to the host for gaining +1 charm point.”
“An'an, come here, let me introduce you to Xu Mo.”
Director Liu waved enthusiastically in Lin An'an’s direction.
Lin An'an reluctantly walked over.
Not because she disliked Xu Mo.
But because she felt the movie was probably doomed.
Still, she had to admit, Xu Mo looked really handsome today.
“Hello, Xu Mo. I think we met at Miss Yang’s Birthday Party last time.”
“Haha… yes, we did.”
Xu Mo cleared his throat.
They shook hands.
After the pleasantries, Director Liu seized the opportunity to ask, “So, Xu Mo, did you get a chance to look at the script yesterday?”
【Script??? What script?】
【Oh, that one! I read it, but I stopped after a couple of pages】
【I’m not here to act. I’m here to get slapped… Wait…】
【It seems like I’m acting out real-life drama, while you guys are making a movie】
【What is this?】
【Art imitating life?】
Xu Mo paused, then put on an awkward yet polite smile.
“Yes, I read it.”
Hearing this, Director Liu laughed heartily, like a man who weighed over 200 pounds.
“Great, great! Today, we’ll start filming from the middle!”
“We’ll shoot the middle part first, then move to the appropriate scenes for the beginning and end.”
“Oh, and you’ll need to change into your character’s outfit.”
Lin An'an, who could hear Xu Mo’s inner thoughts, fell into deep contemplation.
She regretted it.
She regretted listening to Li Jiaxin’s nonsense.
Coming here was a waste of time.
With this free time, she could have asked her agent to clear her schedule.
Then she could wait for directors with good scripts to call her agent for discussions.
Lin An'an bit her lip, ready to grab her bag and leave.
As for the test, it probably wasn’t necessary.
Xu Mo had zero interest.
Why should she stay and cater to him?
Just then, an angry voice echoed through the room.
“Liu Yong, what’s the meaning of this? You promised me this role! Are you trying to mess with me, Lin Fan?”
