Chapter 285: My Girlfriend
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The corners of Mu Ye’s mouth immediately turned downwards. He had not expected Shi Mo to be here as well.
Fang Mo’er blinked her eyes in surprise when she saw Shi Mo. She wanted to take a step forward, but seeing that there were outsiders around, she restrained herself and said, “Why are you here as well?”
Tian Xin said, “My previous movie has just passed the review and I wanted to work with Mr. Shi’s cinema. It’s great to see you in person today. Mr. Shi, please take a seat.”
Mu Ye had originally reserved a seat for Tian Xin. After all, Tian Xin was an elder. However, Tian Xin unexpectedly pointed to that seat and invited Shi Mo to take a seat there.
Shi Mo’s deep brows raised slightly. He walked over without saying anything. Instead, he bypassed that seat and sat down beside Fang Mo’er.
“I’ll sit with my girlfriend.”
When Tian Xin heard Shi Mo’s words, she was stunned. She never read the gossip news so she had not expected that the Fang Mo’er who had asked her to direct her movie, was actually Shi Mo’s girlfriend?
Tian Xin looked at Fang Mo’er and saw that Fang Mo’er was smiling at her kindly.
After Tian Xin sat down, she looked at Shi Mo and Fang Mo’er without batting an eyelid.
She would never have thought that Mr. Shi would actually be in a relationship with Fang Mo’er.
All Tian Xin knew was that Shi Mo was the boss behind a certain national chain of movie theaters, but she did not know that Shi Mo was the person in charge of the Shi family’s business.
“Aunt Tian, Miss Fang is the spokesperson of our company. Please give her a chance.” Mu Ye glanced over at Fang Mo’er again. “Miss Fang, if you have anything to say, please say it now.”
Fang Mo’er took a deep breath.
Just then, Shi Mo reached out and patted Fang Mo’er’s slightly nervous hand.
He signaled for her to relax.
When Tian Xin saw this action, a feeling of shock flashed in her eyes again. Although Shi Mo had not said anything on Fang Mo’er’s behalf, it was clear that the two of them were very close. No words were necessary to say it. Fang Mo’er was protected by Shi Mo.
When she thought about how she still needed Shi Mo to work with her, Tian Xin smiled. “Miss Fang, did you bring the script with you this time?”
Tian Xin was also in a difficult position. Initially, she had intended on dismissing Fang Mo’er after casually reading the script for Mu Ye’s sake.
But now that Shi Mo was part of the equation, she would probably have to decline even more tactfully.
She could not allow Fang Mo’er to be embarrassed.
Tian Xin had always been a principled person. If the quality of this script did not pass, she would never accept this film.
Fang Mo’er took the script out.
This was the upgraded version of the script from the one she brought previously.
Fang Mo’er was feeling even more confident and quickly handed the script over with a smile.
Tian Xin did not waste any time. After receiving it, she pushed her glasses up with a respectful expression, lowered her head, acknowledging her respectfully.
While Tian Xin was reading the script, Mu Ye began sizing up the relationship between Fang Mo’er and Shi Mo.
While Fang Mo’er was staring intently at Tian Xin, she heard Mu Ye casually say, “With your relationship, why is Miss Fang still investing in the movie alone? I also heard that it’s been very difficult to find actors. Are you having some trouble?”
Mu Ye had already found out that Fang Mo’er could not manage to find any actors for her cast.
Furthermore, she did not even have any actors from her own company.
Mu Ye looked at Shi Mo and raised an eyebrow. Even her own company was staying out of it, without offering any help at all. This boyfriend was really useless.
Fang Mo’er had not expected Mu Ye to pay so much attention to her movie. Just as she was about to explain, she heard Shi Mo speak first.
The moment Shi Mo met Mu Ye’s gaze, he knew that this person had formed some kind of opinion against him.
“Our company has already held a meeting to deal with it. In the future, if Mo’er needs anyone from the company for her movie, we will give them priority.”
Mu Ye raised his eyebrows. “I guess the salary will have to be based according to the market price. If it was my woman who wanted to make a movie, I would definitely support her wholeheartedly. I wouldn’t give her so many rules and regulations.”
Shi Mo pursed his lips but did not reply.
He was right. The company would pay Fang Mo’er according to the market price. Even if she participated in the film, Fang Mo’er would not have any special privileges from the company.
Shi Mo narrowed his eyes but refrained from explaining.
Fang Mo’er could not bear to see Shi Mo misunderstood like this. It was already good enough that he had stood up to the company for her.
If she were to recruit actors from the company and not pay them, the entire company’s board of directors would probably explode. Wu Ling would not be the only one who would object.
The company still had to make money.
How could they be so reckless?
