Assistant Yu knocked on the door and entered the room, indicating that it was time for the meeting.
When Assistant Yu saw Fang Mo’er, his gaze shifted and he nodded respectfully at Fang Mo’er.
The central figure of today’s meeting had also arrived.
Everyone knew that the previous order had been given by Wu Ling. Now that Shi Mo wanted to discuss this matter again, it was obvious that he wanted to stand up for Fang Mo’er and challenge Wu Ling.
This was going to be a fight.
Shi Mo immediately said to Fang Mo’er, “I need to attend a meeting now.”
When Fang Mo’er saw Shi Mo’s unyielding gaze, she swallowed back the words that she had wanted to persuade him with.
For the sake of the company, Wu Ling had not allowed any artistes to participate in the Hua Mulan film and convinced everyone else to agree.
However, if Shi Mo stood up for her now, everyone in the company would probably know that she, Fang Mo’er, had caused Shi Mo to be at odds with Wu Ling.
At the same time, that would probably confirm to everyone in the company the status that Fang Mo’er had in Shi Mo’s heart.
It seemed that this was the result that Shi Mo wanted the results.
Fang Mo’er stared at Shi Mo’s back as he left and sighed. When she walked out, she immediately contacted the screenwriter Hu Bei. When she found out that the script had been completed, she became excited again.
This was very good news. This evening, she would be able to put the script in front of Director Tian Xin and use it to convince her.
On the other hand, before Shi Mo entered the meeting room, he had instructed his assistant, “Cancel this evening’s social gathering tonight.”
When he thought about the location that Mu Ye had arranged to meet Fang Mo’er at, a cold glint flashed across Shi Mo’s eyes.
He wanted to see what Mu Ye was up to!
How dare he try to be so close to his woman?
…
In a five-star restaurant.
When Fang Mo’er reached the private room, she realized that Mu Ye was the only one there.
Fang Mo’er immediately nodded respectfully at Mu Ye. “Mr. Mu.”
Mu Ye looked at her reserved expression and smiled. He pointed to the seat beside him and said, “Director Tian Xin will be here soon. Please take a seat first.”
Fang Mo’er immediately went forward and sat down at a seat that was some distance away from Mu Ye.
Mu Ye did not get angry when he saw the way she still treated him like an outsider.
All he said was, “I’ve just spoken to Director Tian Xin. She’s willing to have a good discussion with you. You don’t have to be nervous later. Tian Xin is also a relative of the Mu family. She can be considered my aunt. She will do this for me as a favor.”
After Mu Ye finished speaking, he casually glanced at Fang Mo’er.
Fang Mo’er immediately smiled, but in her heart, she knew that she had to accept this favor today.
“Thank you so much.”
“You’re the company’s spokesperson. If the movie is too bad, it will reflect badly on the company’s image as well. Helping you can be considered as helping the company.” Mu Ye smiled and tried to ease the atmosphere. “What would you like to drink? Milk or juice?”
Fang Mo’er did not dare to let the young master of the Mu family pour her a drink. Seeing that Mu Ye was about to get up, she immediately moved forward. She took the cup and poured some juice into it.
Mu Ye saw that Fang Mo’er was secretly looking in the direction of the door and the corners of his mouth curled up.
She seemed to actually believe that he just happened to be doing her a favor. Such an innocent person was certainly very rare and interesting.
“Why are you being so ambitious as to want to film your own movie?” Mu Ye suddenly asked.
Moreover, she had not accepted the Mu family’s offer to invest in the movie, which had surprised Mu Ye even more.
Fang Mo’er smiled and said, “I think the subject of Hua Mulan is pretty good, but no one has done it yet. In order to play this role, I had no other choice but to produce it myself.”
Mu Ye raised his eyebrows and took a sip of wine.
Just to play a role? She really was serious about it then.
No wonder he was willing to ignore so much just for Mu Chen before. Was she really such a stubborn person?
Interesting.
It was rare for such an interesting person to appear in the entertainment industry.
Others either relied on using flattery or were boringly obedient.
Only Fang Mo’er had not accepted the investment offer. She was multi-talented and persistent.
Just as Mu Ye was about to say something, the door to the private room was pushed open.
Mu Ye subconsciously looked over.
As expected, when he saw Director Tian Xin enter, Mu Ye immediately stood up and greeted her respectfully, “Aunt Tian.”
Fang Mo’er also hurriedly nodded, “Director Tian.”
However, Tian Xin unexpectedly said in surprise, “We’re really lucky. I was just about to contact Mr. Shi Mo when to my surprise, I bumped into him outside.”
Tian Xin moved aside to reveal Shi Mo’s cool and noble face behind her.
