He Honghua's attention was completely captured by Movie Queen An's words. Indeed, she hadn't noticed the commotion in the backseat.
Bo Jiu had assumed that the Almighty would let go after holding her hand.
She hadn't expected him to hold her hand for the entire journey.
Bo Jiu noticed a white cloth wrapped around his slightly cold fingertip.
She remembered how the Almighty had helped her even though he was injured. Her fingers touched his.
Qin Mo was aware of his mother's capabilities and knew that the two in front wouldn't have the time to deal with them. He tilted his handsome face, his voice low. "Don't forget what you promised me."
Bo Jiu arched a brow. What did she promise?
"My hand can't touch water." Qin Mo raised his left hand casually, clearly reminding her.
Bo Jiu wanted to say something.
He Honghua turned. "What do you want to eat? I'll get Xiaodong to prepare the dishes."
"As long as it's Auntie's cooking, I'm fine with anything." Qin Mo smiled, looking like a noble.
Bo Jiu couldn't help grumbling internally. She had never seen anyone as picky as the Almighty. He actually said anything was fine.
"I'll get someone to prepare it." He Honghua had been amazed by the perfect youngster in this world. He was so polite, it wasn't surprising that he was good friends with her Jiu.
Bo Jiu glanced over, lowering her voice.
Bo Jiu glanced over, lowering her voice. "Brother Mo, be careful, there are carrots in my mom's soup."
Qin Mo glanced at the mischievous youngster, replying slowly, "Indeed, you should be careful."
Bo Jiu laughed. Was the Almighty going to admit he was picky?
"Auntie." Qin Mo glanced up, smiling lightly. "Jiu said he doesn't like carrots. Let's not put carrots in the dishes for dinner."
Bo Jiu: …
He Honghua stilled, turning towards her Jiu. "Why didn't he tell me he doesn't like carrots? I won't put them in the soup this time."
No matter what she said, it would only make her seem humble since the Almighty's move was too shameless!
Movie Queen An understood her son better. When she heard his words, she glanced at Qin Mo, smiling ambiguously. She was a beauty.
She knew better than anyone who didn't eat carrots.
Movie Queen An hadn't expected her son to pull such a stunt.
If it was in the past, he would definitely not say what he liked or didn't like.
In fact, he rarely visited anyone's house …
Also, did these two people really think that she could not see their little tricks?
He had underestimated her too much, hmph!
The more Movie Queen An looked at them, the more she liked them.
Especially when Jiu was depressed, his silver hair would curl up, and the resentment of the beautiful youth.
Qin Mo naturally noticed the way the youngster was looking at him. His thin eyelids lifted slightly, his eyes overflowing with a smile.
Movie Queen An took in his smile. The last bit of unwillingness in her heart disappeared without a trace. She hadn't seen her son smile in such a long time.
Probably only Jiu could make him like this. He was no longer as rational, and even a little unreasonable. But this was him with flesh and blood.
He hoped that the influence of that incident would disappear like smoke in thin air …
With that thought, Movie Queen An pulled He Honghua over to talk about shopping.
Regardless of the age or status of a woman, when they talked about clothes, they were always the same. It was as though they would never be tired.
Bo Jiu waited for the two parents to resume their conversation before glancing in Qin Mo's direction.
It was a little resentful.
In that instant.
Qin Mo was in a daze again.
It was as though the youngster in front of him had become very, very small.
Then, she sat on his bed, her pair of lotus root-like short legs swinging back and forth. She was not at ease at all. She also looked at him with the same gloomy gaze. She was so noisy that he could not even write a word.
Write?
Qin Mo frowned at his own imagination.
Had he been sleeping too little recently?
Even images that didn't exist had appeared?
But Qin Mo was curious about how she had looked like when she was young …
On the other side, Guo Rong was upset that she hadn't managed to stop Movie Queen An. She called her son and complained, "That An isn't nice at all. If she hadn't helped you, I wouldn't have ended up like this. Who knew that she wouldn't even bother to look at me when I was already at the car door? What kind of person is she?"
Yi Sihuo held onto his phone, pushing the crowd aside. "Mom, there's no need to look for her. Guess who I saw just now? It's Director William from The Matrix. With him around, there's no need for me to look for her. "
Guo Rong was elated. "That explains why I didn't see you."
"I've been looking for a chance to talk to Director William and chased after him. That's all for now, Mom, I'm hanging up. Wait for my good news." Yi Sihuo was confident that he would catch Director William's eye. After all, he had an Asian feel to him. Moreover, Director William must be here for the casting. If not, an international director wouldn't be so low profile.
He was definitely here to recruit newcomers!
With that thought, Yi Sihuo's eyes lit up. He pushed the receptionist aside and rushed towards the British man.
Director William obviously did not expect someone to suddenly appear in front of him. His blue eyes were filled with astonishment.
To show his respect, Yi Sihuo bowed before exclaiming in English, "Director William, I didn't expect it to be you. I thought I was seeing things! Could you please sign your name for me? I like your movies a lot. The last time I met you was at the film festival but I don't think you remember me. I seem to be rambling but you should be able to understand how I feel when I meet my idol. I'm Yi Sihuo, an actor. "
William smiled. "Oh, of course, I understand."
Yi Sihuo's confidence was boosted by his response. Having been educated overseas for so many years, he knew that Europeans loved to recommend themselves. This was a common flaw of the Chinese.
As early as last year, he had transferred his nationality overseas and understood their way of thinking.
Hence, after Yi Sihuo expressed his admiration, he didn't hesitate to state his motive. "I heard that you are looking for a mysterious male actor from the East. I would like to recommend myself to you."
William came to a sudden realization. He rubbed his chin and looked Yi Sihuo up and down before shaking his head. "You're not bad looking. If it was in the past, I might have considered it. But now, I'm really sorry, I've already found the actor in my heart. If you were at the banquet, you would have seen the silver-haired youngster playing the piano. Be it in terms of looks or aura, he exudes a mysterious aura unique to the East. The smile on his face is devilish but not arrogant. He gives off a humble yet not to be trifled with. He's just like what you Chinese call a noble like a jade."
William said the last four words in Chinese and his pronunciation was a little strange.
But that didn't affect the meaning he was trying to convey.
The more Yi Sihuo listened, the tighter his fists clenched!
It was that disgusting nouveau riche!
What mysterious aura unique to the East? That was just an act!
Yi Sihuo never expected that the role he had fought so hard for would be snatched away by that country bumpkin.
No way.
He wouldn't allow that to happen!
Yi Sihuo's lips froze, Director William's words were like a slap to his face. He tried his best to force a smile. "Director, you might not know this, but this person isn't an actor and doesn't have any experience in this field. Furthermore, his character …"
Yi Sihuo paused to give Director William some room to imagine. From what he knew, when filming overseas, no matter how good an actor's appearance was, as long as they weren't professional or had poor acting skills, they would be rejected.
As expected, when William heard this, he paused.
Yi Sihuo laughed in his heart and wanted to add more vinegar.
Unexpectedly, when William spoke again, he switched to Chinese. Even though he stuttered a little, his meaning was clear. "Mr Yi, are you trying to defame that Asian youngster because you feel indignant about losing to him?"
Yi Sihuo froze and immediately denied it. "Of course not!" He couldn't let Director William think that way, this was an issue of image. Moreover, Director William was an internationally renowned figure and he had to be magnanimous in front of him. "I'm just stating the facts, I'm afraid that Director William doesn't understand the situation and might use the wrong person. After all, this person doesn't have a good reputation. He was originally an esports player but in order to become famous, he kept provoking his fans. Not only did he create a topic for himself, he even forcefully dragged another Almighty to be his CP. If such a person were to join the production team, he would do anything to become famous.
"From what Mr Yi said, you seem to know a lot about this youngster." William's English was much smoother. "Since that's the case, why don't you give me all his information? I'll take a closer look. If it's really as Mr Yi said, he isn't suitable to act in our movie."
Yi Sihuo was stunned again. He really didn't want to tell Director William about the nouveau riche. He hoped that Director William would never be able to find him.
William glanced at the person in front of him, arching a brow. "Mr Yi, are you not willing to let me verify it?"
Yi Sihuo had been in the industry for a long time and wasn't stupid. If he were to reject now, not only would his image be ruined in front of Director William, his words wouldn't be credible at all.
He might as well be more generous since there was a lot of negative news about Spade Z online.
"I do know a little about him," Yi Sihuo replied. Yi Sihuo replied, "But I'm not too sure about the details, he is rather famous online. Director Willam, if you are looking for him, you can do a search online. Spade Z is his in-game name and his mother is from the countryside. It's probably because of this that he does things differently and wants to be famous …"
William's gaze deepened. "Thank you, I'll do some research first before making a decision."
"Director William, you don't have to be so polite," Yi Sihuo replied sincerely. "Even if the role doesn't belong to me, I don't wish for it to be played by any random person."
This time, William didn't reply. At this moment, his assistant returned.
Yi Sihuo knew he had achieved his goal.
It was simple, if he couldn't get the role, that country bumpkin wouldn't be able to either!
He was just a country bumpkin, what right did he have to steal his limelight time and time again?!
Yi Sihuo sent Director William to the car personally.
"I'll think about it." This was what Director William said before he left.
Yi Sihuo waited for the car to drive off before smiling.
However, there was still a gush of anger in his chest that could not be released.
Who was he to snatch the role from him?!
Yi Sihuo kicked the rubbish bin beside him, his eyes dimming.
But it was a blessing in disguise, he had cleverly left Director William's contact details. Perhaps after Director William saw the comments online, he might change his mind and let him take the role.
It wasn't impossible.
Yi Sihuo smiled once more, picking up his phone to make a call. "Help me prepare some dirt, no, this time it isn't someone from the industry, nor that webnovel author. I don't think they need it anymore. I managed to win over his fans, that webnovel author should be in a bad mood. Don't bother with such a small character, it's an esports player, ID Spade Z. Once it's done, we'll go according to the previous arrangement."
"Alright." The person on the other end of the line had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, who else could it be other than the tall and slender criminal gang?
He hung up, lifting his head to smile at the girl operating the computer. "One of our chess pieces has his eyes on Spade Z."
"That's right." The girl smiled. "Help him out."
The tall and slender man seemed to have other matters to attend to. "The crime squad …"
"Don't worry, they won't be able to find anything." The girl tapped her fingers on the keyboard. "The new psychologist has already taken over the investigation with the help of the higher-ups, no one will be able to stop us. How's your discussion with Rao Rong?"
The tall and slender man laughed sarcastically. "He seems a little conflicted, he's still so naive. That's all, he wants to walk his own path. Even if he can't play in the professional league anymore, the mention of his father will calm him down."
