Tan Mo lifted his head to look at the others with an innocent expression, as if asking, am I wrong?
Director Hou turned his head to look at Tan Jinqi as if he was questioning the young man.
Has your sister always been this funny? Where's the cute, easily bullied little girl you've always talked about?
Tan Mo's words were basically like a knife pointed at Yu Yixian's throat which made the actress speechless. He could only stare at Tan Mo with fire in his eyes.
It was clear that Tan Mo was planning to take him to the next level rather than playing around with him.
“Director Liu, did you see? It's not that I disrespect you, but this little brat is disrespectful,” Yu Yixian lamented.
“Why did you even argue with a child? Aren't you an adult?” Director Liu sighed and could hardly help but call the actress a child as well because of the way she acted.
“A...what do you mean?” Yu Yixian could not believe what she had just heard.
“You want her to remove her makeup? Well, that's not going to happen.” Director Liu mocked him.
“Auntie, why do you keep asking me to remove my makeup?” ask Tan Mo. “Is it because my makeup was done by Mr Liu Jingping? Are you blaming me because he refused to help you instead of me?”
Yu Yixian's eyes widened. The girl had guessed the real reason before the actress revealed the truth.
People started chatting around them, with one of them saying, “Isn't that too much? Why would she argue with a child about a makeup artist?”
Since there were many people around, Yu Yixian did not know who said that.
There were many other actresses present as well who were also rejected by Liu Jingping.
They all laughed as Tan Mo commented on the reason Yu Yixian was so angry.
“Liu Jingping also rejected my offer, and I have not said anything yet. Who does he think he is?”
“She probably picked this young lady because she didn't want to offend any of us. Yu Yixian completely crossed the line this time.”
Yu Yixian never expected that Tan Mo would be such a cunning person.
Director Liu could only sigh after seeing Tan Mo deliver the final blow to the actress.
“This young woman took a lot of time to finish the makeup, and there was no way she would remove it. And why should he apologize? Did he do something wrong?” Director Liu said. “If you really want the organizer to choose between you and him, then I would rather he stay here than you.”
As Director Liu made that statement, everyone could not hold their breath, wondering who Tan Mo really was for the Director to protect him so far.
Never in a million years would Director Liu leave Tan Mo, but what he said to the manager next was more shocking to the crowd.
“I'll say this first. If the organizers decide to side with Miss Yu here, then I will leave. The decision is in your hands.”
“Liu, I see you are still arrogant as usual, huh?” Director Hou laughed and turned to the manager. “I'll apologize instead for giving you a hard time.”
The manager quietly sighed in relief when he heard that. He thought he really should choose between Director Liu and Yu Yixian and thanked Director Hou for his help.
But what Director Hou said next shattered his hopes.
“Count me then. I'll side with Liu. Either you choose Miss Yu here or us. I'm sure this will make it easier, right?”
Yu Yixian could only stare at the two Directors in astonishment, not believing that they would go to any lengths to help Tan Mo.
They are known in the industry for being kind to others and rarely meddling in the affairs of others. Even if they do, they do it in a very subtle way.
That was the reason why Yu Yixian thought she could still make Tan Mo apologize and change her makeup, thinking that the director would rather end things peacefully.
It was basically impossible for him to think that they would really protect Tan Mo until the end. For a split second, he even thought he was dreaming.
The actress silently pinched her leg and could feel her pain. He's not dreaming.
It was then that Yu Yixian finally turned to look at Tan Mo and wondered who the young lady really was.
He's starting to worry.
He could never have predicted that the two best directors working today would stand by Tan Mo's side. He really underestimated the little girl.
“O...of course,” the manager laughed awkwardly, knowing that it was already impossible to make Tan Mo apologize and re-decorate her makeup.
He understood that Yu Yixian now needed a way to get out of this situation and quickly said, “Miss Yu, it's your turn to walk on the red carpet.”
“What?” Yu Yixian asked with a foolish expression on her face. She still had not recovered from her shock, which was unlike her.
What had just happened had turned his mind around, and he could not think clearly.
Didn't you say it was my turn at the end?
The most famous celebrities with many fans around the world would usually enter the venue at the end. The reason is so that people can stay focused on the red carpet event until it is finished. That way, fans and reporters will wait until the show ends.
Liu was the first to understand the manager's intent and quickly whispered into Yu Yixian's ear.
Only then, Yu Yixian realized that the manager was trying to help her and said, “Oh, right! I'll be getting ready soon.”
He then quickly turned around and left the scene.
The others could not help but laugh at how awkward his reaction was.
The manager then quickly pulled one of the staff aside and said, “Quickly and tell the red carpet host that Yu Yixian's schedule has been advanced. Make sure they don't announce the wrong name.”
The staff nodded and left immediately.
After making sure everything was in order, the manager finally apologized to Tan Mo, “We are really sorry for everything. Are you okay?”
“This industry is really scary,” said Tan Mo with a pale expression.
It was definitely not a place where an honest person like him would stay.
The little girl then slowly turned to look at Director Liu as if she was telling him that she did not want to work in such a frightening industry anymore.
The director immediately recalled what Professor Tang had warned him about when he went to visit. The professor told him that Tan Mo was very lazy, that if there was a chance for him to laze around, he would take it.
If Professor Tang had not told Director Liu that, the latter would have believed that Tan Mo was really scared.
“Come, with Director Hou and me here, no one dares to bully you.” Director Liu laughed like a cunning wolf.
Even if she was not protected by them, she was still the only daughter of the Tan family and Wei Zhiqian's precious niece. No one in this world would dare to disturb him if they knew that.
“Liu true. Nothing to be afraid of.” Director Hou also laughed. “Only others will suffer if you join this industry.”
The silent turn of Tan Mo.
Why do I feel like people always misunderstand me? What the hell's going on?
“Little girl, didn't you promise to write my next script? Don't you dare try to escape.” Director Liu smiled.
Director Hou took the opportunity and said, “Don't forget that I just helped you too, okay?”
