Chapter 1373: Nianyao and Mo Xicheng (46)
Hence, his words carried an underlying sarcasm.
Yao Lili opened her mouth to say more, but Mo Xicheng had already strode out of the house.
Her fingernails dug into the flesh of her palm.
Then she lowered her head and picked up her cell phone to dial a number.
Very quickly, the line was connected. The voice from the other end said, “Auntie Yao, what’s up?”
It was Mo Xicheng’s personal assistant.
Yaon Lili laughed immediately and said, “Xiao Chen, I wanted to ask you, what is Xicheng’s schedule like for the day?”
“Oh, Auntie Yao, not much, just lunch at noon.”
“Where at? What is the private room number?”
“Royal Family Hotel. For the private room number, it’s best you ask Brother Mo.”
She immediately said, “No, it’s ok. I’m just worried about him. Sigh, mothers will be mothers.”
“Yes, I understand completely.”
Yao Lili added, “Don’t let him know that I called you. You know, he thinks I’m too nosy. But I feel ill at ease if I have no idea of his whereabouts.”
“Sure, Auntie Yao. I understand of course.”
After she hung up, Yao Lili picked up her cell phone again. She searched the directory for Mo Zhi’s number and then dialed.
Mo Zhi picked up the call very quickly, although he sounded like he was sleeping. “Who is it, waking me up so early and interrupting my sleep?”
Yao Lili looked up at the sun high above. She gave an awkward cough and said, “It’s me.”
Why was it that other people’s children would wake up early in the morning just to plan a surprise at the hotel for his girlfriend, and yet her own child had to be this lazy?
She sighed deeply and said, “Mo Xicheng has arranged to meet Shi Nianyao for lunch at Royal Family Hotel at noon.”
“What?!” Mo Zhi exclaimed with a piercing scream. “That bastard, he dares to steal my woman?”
–
Mo Xicheng had driven to the restaurant early in the morning to personally take a look at the private room.
Since Shi NIanyao had married him under such circumstances, he was determined to make her happy every day during the period they had to be apart.
As he was driving, his manager called.
The manager started, “Brother Mo, the filming crew of Ambition contacted me about having you do some publicity work for the film. I’ve done as you told me and rejected the job. This is just an update, but I also wanted to find out when you might want to sign up for the next movie. I know that the earnings from this film will probably last you the next two years, but surely you’re not going to wait another two years before you take on your next job.”
Upon hearing the slight mocking behind these words, Mo Xicheng paused for a moment and suddenly said, “I’ll go.”
“What? Where are you going?” The manager was confused.
Mo Xicheng replied after another pause, “To the Ambition press conference. I’ll go to all the publicity activities. And I’m fine with doing all sorts of advertisements. We’ll take advantage of the success of Ambition. Didn’t you want all of this? Now we can do it.”
The manager was stunned and said, “I’ll be damned, Brother Mo. Are you quite alright? What’s gotten into you?”
Mo Xicheng continued, “Because I’m going to start making money.”
In the past, he used to think that it was good enough as long as his mother and he had enough to spend.
But now, he wanted to work hard to give Shi Nianyao the better things in life.
Besides, he could no longer afford to let Shi Nianyao and his fans down.
Now he understood that whether he made it big or not was not something that only impacted himself.
His manager got excited at once. “Brother Mo, I finally live to see this day! Just you hang in there and watch great things happen!”
