"President Mo, are you saying that you want me to act as the second male lead?" Inside Hai Rui's meeting room, Huangfu Shuo sat opposite Mo Ting as he pointed to himself in disbelief. "Me... the second male lead?"
"I've seen all of your work. Giving you the role of the second male lead was a decision that I made after evaluating your abilities," Mo Ting said with the attitude of a king of the entertainment industry. "Although you've played the male lead in the past, do you think your role is up to standard?" Huangfu Shuo looked at Mo Ting with the attitude of a king in the entertainment industry.
"President Mo, everyone in the industry knows that I, Young Master Huangfu, act according to my mood... I'm not used to the way you speak." Huangfu Shuo was handsome; he was the type that looked extremely attractive at first glance. But, with a change of style, he could change into another style. He was quite flexible. However, his attitude... "I don't want to act. What a joke."
"You debuted at the age of 17. At that time, you were still a good boy and suffered a lot because of the unwritten rules. But, at that time, a woman gave you a lot of encouragement, but ended up abandoning you. So, from then on, you presented yourself as a playboy... "
"Aren't you curious as to why she abandoned you?"
After hearing this, Huangfu Shuo immediately put away his carefree attitude and became a little angry, "So, Hai Rui likes to dig up other people's secrets?"
"Afterwards, she hooked up with a singer. But, after a short period of time, the singer disappeared. So, she aborted the child and went overseas to marry a famous actor in Hollywood."
"You win!" Huangfu Shuo scoffed.
"I've seen the contents of your audition. It's very good. Are you going to sign it?" Mo Ting changed the topic. "Actually, you really want to question her and attract her attention. That's why you're acting so seriously. Unfortunately, her status is too high for you to reach. Now, Hai Rui is giving you a chance. I can guarantee that, as long as Hai Rui announces that they will be joining 'The Royal Concubine', she will look at you differently."
"Do you think I care?" Huangfu Shuo scoffed.
"Yes, you don't care. But, you can make a beautiful turnaround in front of her and make her regret it."
"Will it really happen as you say?"
"Don't you know? Right now, Bai Yu is going around posting posters to crush my wife. " "What do you think she would think if she were to find out that the lover she once abandoned is acting in her enemy's film?" Mo Ting asked straightforwardly.
That would be awesome, okay?
Huangfu Shuo was tempted.
Although he had already matured, sometimes, what harm was there in being willful for once?
"What else can I say? Of course I signed it … Happy working with you, CEO Mo. " Huangfu Shuo once again returned to his carefree self. In reality, Tangning had already come across plenty of situations like this. But, Huangfu Shuo... how should she put it? Everyone had a story that they couldn't talk about. It was like a thorn hidden in the depths of their hearts.
You think it is thin, it is small, it is insignificant, but, once touched, it is fatal pain.
Some people could be cured by others, like Tangning.
However, the majority of them continued to move forward with the burden on their backs …
…
"I heard you've already signed Huangfu Shuo. Is that true?" Tangning asked as she sat at the dining table during dinner. "Have you confirmed it?"
"OK," Mo Ting nodded.
Tangning lowered her head. It seemed, this was the first time Mo Ting had made a decision without discussing it with her.
"But, I don't think Huangfu Shuo has any chance of being the male lead. I'm not talking about his scandals, I'm talking about his acting …" Although Tangning wanted to hold back, in the end, she still revealed her unhappiness to Mo Ting. "Don't you think you've made this decision too rashly?"
After hearing this, Mo Ting stopped eating and pulled Tangning into his embrace, placing her on his lap, "You're the only one that knows. Don't you think I'm the only one that knows? It's because I know Huangfu Shuo isn't cut out for the role that I only signed him on as the second male lead. Idiot. "
"Second male lead?" Tangning was stunned for quite some time before she reacted.
"Because he is Bai Yu's first love and was once abandoned by her. Since Bai Yu is so good at persuading people, let's see if she has the guts to approach Huangfu Shuo, "Mo Ting said with a vengeance. This was Mo Ting, the black-bellied Mo Ting. As long as someone wanted to bully Tangning, he would definitely find a way to fight back. Even though, Lu Che was the one who had done a great job this time.
Tangning immediately understood Mo Ting's intention as she pinched his thigh, "I really don't know what to do with you. What about the male lead?"
"For such an important character, no matter what, the mystery must be revealed at the last moment."
"Alright, you've really made me nervous." After speaking, Tangning tried to stand up, but Mo Ting wrapped his arms around her waist and said in a low voice, "Don't touch me.
"Don't go!"
"Huh?" Tangning was confused.
"I don't think I've asked for you on this dining table," Mo Ting replied as he lifted his handsome face.
This time, Tangning couldn't help but be surprised...
"I've already repaid what I owed you."
"No, I'm paying you back now. I owe you..." After speaking, Mo Ting placed Tangning on the dining table. He no longer cared about anything else. At this moment, all he wanted to do was become one with her. How could there be such a magical woman in this world? How could she make him fall in love more and more, wanting to possess her more and more …
...
The next day, another actor for 'The Forensic Concubine' was confirmed. Huangfu Shuo was confirmed to be joining the cast. But, Hai Rui was very experienced in not announcing the role he would be playing.
As a result, the public couldn't help but guess, were they planning to cast Huangfu Shuo as the male lead?
Regarding this, fans of the novel couldn't decide whether to agree or disagree. If they were to reject Huangfu Shuo, he was handsome, dressed in ancient clothing and most importantly, had decent acting skills. But, if they were to accept him, he had too many tricks up his sleeves. Of course, even though he was passionate, he wasn't too promiscuous.
As soon as this news was released, the ones that were shocked the most weren't the fans. After all, Mo Ting wasn't aiming for the fans, he was aiming for Bai Yu.
As expected, as soon as Bai Yu saw the news, her face turned pale.
If she hadn't seen this name with her own eyes, she would have forgotten that she once had a past like this.
Hai Rui actually cast Huangfu Shuo as the male lead?
Huangfu Shuo?
Was he even worthy?
Plus, did Hai Rui know something? Otherwise, why would they choose Huangfu Shuo out of so many other actors?
She had never admitted to her relationship with Huangfu Shuo. If Huangfu Shuo remained a nobody, it would be easier to control him. But, if Huangfu Shuo became famous and revealed that she once abandoned him for the sake of climbing up the social ladder... then...
