Chapter 286: Was Such a Good Woman
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“It’s better to follow the market. I like to respect the rules of the game and I would not want to disrupt it.” Fang Mo’er smiled and said jokingly, in an effort to try and resolve the awkwardness from earlier.
Mu Ye tapped his knee lightly. “Miss Fang is such a good woman, speaking up for Mr. Shi.”
Previously, he had thought that Shi Mo valued Fang Mo’er a lot. However, ultimately, he wasn’t able to help at all.
The company was still causing trouble.
Fang Mo’er smiled but did not say anything.
She did not know why, but she felt that Mu Ye was hinting at something.
Subconsciously, she touched the drink on the table and was about to drink it, but it was taken away by a hand.
“Don’t drink this,” said Shi Mo as he frowned. Even at a glance, Shi Mo could tell that the drink was cold.
He immediately poured a cup of warm tea for Fang Mo’er and placed it on her hand to warm her hands.
He had just noticed that the temperature of Fang Mo’er’s hand was a little low.
The two of them acknowledged each other respectfully.
Fang Mo’er also held the cup very naturally. She had almost forgotten that she could not drink the cold drink.
Fortunately, Shi Mo reminded her.
On one side, Fang Mo’er was warming her hands, while on the other side, Mu Ye was staring at Fang Mo’er’s teacup, deep in thought.
The moment he raised his head, he noticed Shi Mo looking in his direction with a warning look in his eyes.
Mu Ye was instantly amused. Was he deliberately showing off his affection for her here?
Shi Mo reached out to hold the palm of Fang Mo’er’s hand again, feeling the warmth of it.
Suddenly, Mu Ye deliberately said, “There seems to be a reporter outside.”
Fang Mo’er instantly became nervous and immediately removed her hand, then hurriedly hunched down.
“Why are there reporters everywhere?”
The results of her meeting with Tian Xin had yet to be finalized and she did not want to be exposed so quickly. She did not want to cause any more trouble.
Tian Xin respectfully glanced outside the door and realized that there was no one there.
Mu Ye then said, “Oh, I must have been mistaken. It was just a person passing by with a cell phone.”
Fang Mo’er heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking about how she was still hiding, she awkwardly sat up and said, “I’m sorry, it’s an occupational hazard for me.”
In her line of work, she had to be careful at all times. The moment she heard that there were reporters, her first reaction was that she did not want to be photographed.
However, Mu Ye raised his eyebrows and glanced at Shi Mo.
When Shi Mo’s hand had been pushed away, he had sat there solemnly without saying anything.
Mu Ye’s gaze seemed to say, “Huh, it looks like she doesn’t even want to be photographed by the reporters. It looks like their relationship is not really that important.”
“It’s fine. I think Miss Fang’s reaction just now was very cute.” Mu Ye respectfully said as he downed the wine in one gulp, his eyes filled with meaning.
Fang Mo’er immediately covered her face. She had blushed because she had been nervous just now.
She suddenly felt as if she had really been humiliated now.
Shi Mo suddenly stretched his hand out and ruffled Fang Mo’er’s hair. “It’s fine.”
For a moment, Fang Mo’er’s heartbeat calmed down as well.
At the thought of having Shi Mo around, she suddenly felt much safer.
The three of them did not speak anymore.
Tian Xin looked at the plot in the script before her and her eyes lit up.
However, she knew that the three of them were busy people. She smiled and said, “Miss Fang, this script is really well written. It’s just that I haven’t finished reading it yet. Can I give you a reply after I’ve finished reading it? This is my contact information.”
Tian Xin took the initiative to pass her business card to Fang Mo’er.
Fang Mo’er’s face lit up, as she accepted it with both hands. “I’ll wait for your news then.”
Tian Xin looked at Shi Mo again. “Mr. Shi, then what I told you…”
Before Tian Xin could finish, Shi Mo nodded and said, “I’ll get my assistant to contact you to arrange for the screening time.”
Tian Xin immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
A movie that she had previously worked with had been banned for a period of time due to the sensitive subject matter. It had not been easy to get it released, and she was worried that she would not be able to find a good movie theater to release it.
After all, their movie was only a small production. Originally, Tian Xin had only been trying her luck and had not expected her efforts to be successful.
Tian Xin took a deep look at Fang Mo’er. It seemed like it was all thanks to Fang Mo’er.
After the few of them had finished their meal, Tian Xin expressed that she had something to attend to and left first.
When Fang Mo’er heard this, she quickly stood up. “Let me send you off.”
However, because Fang Mo’er stood up too quickly, she accidentally knocked against the table and fell back down in pain.
Mu Ye quickly reached out to support Fang Mo’er’s arm. It was a completely subconscious action.
On the other side, Shi Mo also reached out to hold Fang Mo’er’s other arm.
