Cute Brother Badass Family Protector

Chapter 221: Very Embarrassing

However, even though he was his eldest brother, Tan Jinqi did not know how to repay him.

Director Liu was shocked when he heard about this and shook his head, laughing. “So, I'm not the first person to get help from him..”.

The director was completely shocked by Tan Mo's ability.

Professor Tang, Professor Gu, and President Mu were some of the most respected people in his field.

However, they had all recognized Tan Mo as a special individual, to the point where they were willing to do anything to make him work with them.

If it wasn't proof of how amazing he was, then the director couldn't think of any other way to convince people of his worth.

“And here I think I have seen how amazing he has been over the last two days. Who knew he was even more amazing than that?” Director Liu laughed. “If Professor Tang, Professor Gu, and President Mu all agree to his request, then that means my approval of his request should be the right thing to do.”

“So, what did he ask for?” Tan Jinqi asked, very curious as to what kind of help Tan Mo asked from the Director.

From what he had seen so far, Tan Mo's request always made sense. Even though he was capable enough, he would never ask the other party to do things that were uncomfortable for them.

“Your sister really helped prepare for your future. He knows that directing your first film as a budding director will be full of many setbacks. That's why he asked me to help you when needed.” Director Liu smiled as he explained. If Tan Mo was present, he would be surprised to learn that the director understood the true meaning of his request. “But, I think the little girl really knows how much she has helped me. If not for him, this entire production would have lost a lot of money. There's no way I can take advantage of such a sweet girl, right? That's why I promised him that when you direct your first movie, I'll be your assistant director."

“What?” Tan Jinqi could not hide her shock. He had never thought that Director Liu would make such a big promise, and that he had submitted himself instead of Tan Mo asking for it.

It shows how clever the director is.

The reason he told Tan Jinqi his promise to Tan Mo was for the young man to remember what he had done for him.

There was no way the director would let his chance to act like a good person go to waste.

“Do not pressure yourself because of that,” said the director. “Although I said I would be your assistant director, I would mostly be there just to make sure no one messed up with you. I can also help you with makeup and costumes if you can't find a suitable person to do so. The actors will most likely empty their schedules for you if they see me as your assistant director. As long as I'm there, no one will try to mess with you.”

Although the director said that there was not much he would do, Tan Jinqi knew that it was more than he could ask for.

It was basically unheard of for a hotshot director like him to be a budding assistant director.

“Thank you!” Tan Jinqi thanked him with a bow.

Seeing the young man understand what he had done, Director Liu smiled and encouraged Tan Jinqi to work harder before setting out to finish his own work.

Director Liu had arranged for someone to buy a laptop for Tan Mo and send it to the hotel.

When the doorbell rang, Tan Mo had already moved away from Wei Zhiqian's embrace but was still clinging to her as close as possible.

He was chewing on the fruits sent by Wei Zhiqian's room service.

Naturally, this man felt the need to feed him.

Tan Mo was munching on cherries when they heard the doorbell.

He pouted with his lips dyed red from cherries and turned to look at Wei Zhiqian, telling him with his expression that he did not want to move.

Wei Zhiqian smiled and stuffed the strawberries into his mouth.

What a lazy kid.

Then the man got up and went to open the door.

Assistant Director Liu jumped back in surprise when he saw a man behind the door. “K...kau?”

“I'm uncle Mo Mo,” Wei Zhiqian explained and glanced at the bag in the assistant's hand. “You're here to deliver the laptop, right?”

Tan Mo had mentioned it to Wei Zhiqian while they were eating.

Fortunately, Tan Mo shouted from inside the room, “Just give it to my uncle! Thank you very much!”

After hearing the confirmation from Tan Mo, the assistant heaved a sigh of relief and handed the bag with the laptop inside to Wei Zhiqian.

“Please tell Tan Mo that if he needs anything else, he can tell me,” the assistant said. “She should have been added to group chat by now.”

Since Tan Mo is now a scriptwriter and a history consultant for the drama, she is officially part of the crew.

After the assistant left, Wei Zhiqian closed the door and handed the laptop to Tan Mo.

Tan Mo opened the package and sighed. “Why should I work when Uncle comes to visit me? I want to spend more time with you.”.

Wei Zhiqian smiled and patted his head. “Alright, focus on your work. I'll stay here with you.”

Tan Mo pouted but finally agreed to it.

Since it was a completely new laptop, he had to set everything up and download all the software he needed.

He could not help but yawn as he waited for everything to load.

He had been tired from staying up all night writing the script, but had become too excited when Wei Zhiqian came to visit and completely forgot that he was tired..

He did not want to rest now because he had a lot of things to do and it also meant that it would steal the time when he could see Wei Zhiqian.

However, when he turned on the laptop, his fatigue struck him again.

“What? Are you tired just from turning on the laptop?” Wei Zhiqian laughed as he asked.

There was no way Tan Mo would tell Wei Zhiqian that he had only slept for three hours the night before because he would definitely make him rest soon.

It was something he wanted to prevent. He did not even want to close his eyes when Wei Zhiqian was around.

He secretly used his healing ability to relieve his drowsiness and at the same time to remove the pouch from under his eyes.

At the same time, he also removed the red scar on his hand that he had gotten that morning.

Because Wei Zhiqian was the only person in the world who knew that he had healing abilities, Tan Mo only did a little healing on his hands when he was on fire and did not remove his scar so Director Liu and the others did not suspect anything.

He had completely forgotten about the scar when Wei Zhiqian arrived ever since he had been completely captivated by it.

It was only after she used her healing abilities that she realized the scars and removed them as well.

When Wei Zhiqian saw the scar disappear from Tan Mo's hand, he couldn't help but gasp at how amazing his healing abilities were.

After relieving his fatigue, Tan Mo began to script for the next episode. Wei Zhiqian pulled the chair next to him and brought a plate of fruits as well.

As Tan Mo typed on the laptop, he would feed the fruit from time to time.

Almost half an hour had passed, and Tan Mo finally said, “I'm full. My stomach is already swollen from eating too much.”

Thinking that since they were alone and did not need to hold back, Wei Zhiqian poked at Tan Mo's stomach and realized that his stomach was indeed bulging. “Ha, ha, ha, you're right.”

Unexpectedly, Tan Mo turned to look at Wei Zhiqian as his cheeks reddened.

“Uncle! I... I'm still a woman, you know? How can you do that?” Tan Mo was completely embarrassed by what Wei Zhiqian had just done.

“Do what?” Wei Zhiqian looked at him dumbfoundedly as he thought it was normal for one's stomach to bulge slightly from eating too much.

“I mean... My stomach is already bloated from eating too much, and you still touch it. Didn't you know that all women love their flat stomachs so they can stay beautiful? It's so embarrassing!”
