"It's not like you don't know that your mother is a bit of a believer in luck. Previously, a fortune-teller told her that she needed to change her surname to turn her misfortune into fortune. So, she changed it, "Father Mo replied casually, like he had no doubts about his wife's words.
"I remember, although she didn't like actors in the past, it wasn't to the point of hating them …"
"You haven't gotten married for so many years, so your mother was a bit worried about your industry. As time went by, it turned into hatred …"
"In that case, why did she only hate actors?" Mo Ting asked as he once again found the crux of the problem.
Father Mo was a little surprised. Finally, he understood the meaning behind Mo Ting's words, so he looked at Mo Ting confusedly, "Mo Ting, why are you asking me these questions today?"
"It's nothing. I simply want to understand mom better and solve the problem between her and Tangning."
After hearing Mo Ting's answer, Father Mo didn't believe him, but he did not continue to doubt him.
"Do you need a reason to hate something?"
Indeed, there was no need!
But, this wasn't a coincidence. Mo Ting was now certain that there were some things that even his father didn't know about.
"I'm here today for no other reason. I simply hope that you can control your wife. Otherwise, when I make a move, I won't be able to recognize anyone!"
Hearing this, Father Mo was finally angered. He pointed at Mo Ting and asked, "Is this how you treat your parents?"
Mo Ting did not respond. He simply looked deeply into Father Mo's eyes. Perhaps, he felt a little sympathy for him.
Afterwards, Mo Ting returned home. However, Tangning noticed the time he had arrived, so she sat down on the sofa and asked, "Mr. Mo, you're 20 minutes late today."
Mo Ting wrapped his arm around Tangning and hugged her tightly, "Don't ask anything. Give me some time."
"I won't ask," Tangning replied firmly. "Even if you didn't tell me to, I wouldn't have asked."
The couple were of one mind. Tangning could vaguely guess what Mo Ting had been up to recently.
"By the way, Jingjing invited me to her birthday party."
"Do you want to go?" Mo Ting let go of Tangning and helped her lie down on the sofa. He then tidied up the script on the sofa.
"Of course I have to go," Tangning said.
Within the industry, she didn't have a lot of friends to begin with. Apart from those that were about to betray her, like Song Yanshu, how many people did she have left that she could confide in?
"I'll arrange it … How long is it?"
"Seven o 'clock at night the day after tomorrow."
…
Late at night, in the black and white apartment.
Chen Xingyan tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. She still hadn't given An Zihao an official answer: whether or not she wanted to become his stunt double.
If she signed the contract, she would be able to get a lot of resources. She would not have to worry about not having a substitute in the future. However, at the same time, she would also lose her freedom and would no longer be able to be the devil incarnate that she used to be.
"Should I sign it or not?"
Just as Chen Xingyan was at her wits' end, she suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. She went downstairs and saw a woman carrying her luggage at the door. She immediately went up to her and asked, "Mom, where have you been?"
The woman put down the luggage in her hands and suddenly looked at Chen Xingyan with a dark expression, "Xiao Xing... mom has something to tell you."
"Just say it. Why are you so serious?" Chen Xingyan rolled her eyes as she took the luggage from the woman's hands and led her to the sofa.
The woman was silent for a moment before she grabbed onto Chen Xingyan's arm and said, "Actually..."
"Huh?"
The woman looked at Chen Xingyan in seriousness, but she couldn't say a word. The words were stuck in her throat, but she couldn't get them out.
"Forget it. Mom is tired. I want to get some rest."
As soon as Chen Xingyan heard this, her initial excitement disappeared, "Mom, we don't have secrets, do we?"
"Mom is really tired!" the woman insisted.
"Fine, if you don't want to tell me, then I'll tell you. I can only be a stunt double, but I have one condition: I need to sign a contract with someone and follow their arrangements. What do you think?"
"Is it the young man that you hit last time?" the woman thought for a moment before replying, "You can sign it. I think he's a good guy."
Actually, another reason was because she knew that An Zihao and Tangning had a good relationship. With this relationship, it would be easier for her to find out about Tangning and Mo Ting.
"What's good about him?" Chen Xingyan couldn't help but complain. "But, since you're confident, I don't mind. Let's just sign it. Do you think I'm afraid that he'll eat me up? If he dares, I can cripple his brother. "
After hearing Chen Xingyan's words, the woman wasn't sure if she had done the right thing by persuading Chen Xingyan.
She had almost said it out loud, but... if Chen Xingyan found out, according to her temper, she would definitely storm over to Hai Rui and cause trouble for Hua Wenfeng.
This wasn't what she wanted. She needed to slowly plan and take her time.
So, if she allowed Chen Xingyan to sign with An Zihao, she would have the opportunity to get close to Mo Ting and Tangning. This would also give the siblings a chance to get to know each other better.
Would Xiao Ting like Chen Xingyan's naughty sister?
"But, mom, I have a question. An Zihao has asked me to give him an answer at Huo Jingjing's birthday party in 2 days. But, I don't have a proper dress."
"Silly, Mr. An must have confirmed that you've agreed to sign with him. He's trying to introduce you to some contacts," the woman immediately saw through An Zihao's plan.
"I know …"
"You're trying to trick your mom into giving you back your money, aren't you?"
Huo Jingjing's birthday party!
According to Huo Jingjing and Tangning's relationship, there was no reason for Tangning not to attend.
Perhaps, that would be her only chance to see Mo Ting.
"Xiao Xing, since you've decided to sign the contract, you should take mom with you. I have a few things I want to say to Mr. An."
Chen Xingyan was a little surprised. She never expected that her mother would one day take the initiative to attend a public event. So, she was completely stunned.
"What? Are you afraid that your mother will embarrass you?"
"Who would dare to say anything bad about my mother? Unless she doesn't want to live. " Chen Xingyan immediately put her arm around the woman's shoulder and said, "Looks are nothing. My mother is the best mother in the world. Of course, if my mother could return my money, that would be even better."
"I'll return it to you, I'll return it to you …"
She didn't dare to acknowledge Mo Ting because she was currently in an ugly state. Over the years, she had already seen through the strange gazes of the world. So, she didn't want Mo Ting to be ridiculed and laughed at because of her.
In this world, sometimes, a beautiful face could do a lot of things.
