President Mo: Need to Work Hard

109

The guests of the charity event were categorized into the industry and all the guests of the entertainment industry sat in the second row.

Mo Ting's seat was the first one on the left. Next to her sat a pianist, followed by Tangning. Of all the chairs around her, Tangning was the closest woman.

Tangning looked past the pianist in Mo Ting's chair, she had not arrived yet. He glanced to his right, it was Lan Xi's chair.

From the moment Luo Hao and Lan Xi entered the venue, they had no idea Tangning would be sitting next to Lan Xi. Luo Hao's first reaction was to suggest Lan Xi exchange seats with him so he could get in Tangning's way. But, if they really exchanged seats, Lan Xi would sit next to Father Five...

...and he had previously told Lan Xi that Tangning would be joining Creative Century. If it appeared in a conversation between Lan Xi and Father Five, then he would find out that he was deliberately preventing Tangning from joining Cheng Tian. But, it was less than two evils, so he still swapped seats with Lan Xi.

Normally, he should not feel guilty after what he did; it was already in the past. But, this is Tangning...

Luo Hao glanced at Tangning; this was the first time she had been so close to her, but she could already sense that she was harder to predict than Lan Xi. His expression did not reveal anything and his actions were impossible to see. He must have suffered too much in the industry, that was why he was so cautious.

He was very quiet, like he was standing far away from the world. However, Luo Hao knew, the first rule for someone with a high EQ was to have control over their emotions.

Tangning undoubtedly had this flaw.

Not long after, there was a commotion and a scream. Mo Ting had just entered and he naturally caught the attention of all the women in the hall. He was indifferent to the people around him as he walked straight to his seat. It was only after she passed Tangning that she slowed down and rubbed the back of her hand into Tangning's hand.

Tangning allowed him without a sound as she avoided eye contact. No doubt his heart started racing.

But soon he laughed at how ridiculous he was inside. This was clearly her husband; all she did was make a little physical contact with him, yet she felt like she had won a huge prize. He felt like he was floating in the clouds.

After all, there were so many eyes fixed on him ...

Afterwards, Mo Ting sat down in his chair.

Lan Xi turned her head to glance at Mo Ting, but was unexpectedly discovered by him. To cover up her panic, she immediately patted Tangning's arm and pretended to welcome her.

Luo Hao, who was sitting between the two women, became panicked upon seeing Lan Xi's actions. One must definitely not lie or they will be tormented by their guilty conscience.

Tangning turned to look at Lan Xi as a smile appeared on her face, "President Lan, how are you?"

"Last time at the awards ceremony, I've been watching you. Too bad we weren't meant to work together. I feel sorry about that, but I still wish you all the best."

After hearing Lan Xi's words, Tangning's expression disappeared. Just as he was about to question Lan Xi, Luo Hao spoke between them, "President Lan, let's have a chat later, the show will start soon."

Tangning lifted her head to look at the man who spoke. He didn't know why he felt like he was trying to hide something. A moment later, he recalled the anonymous warning he had received from someone in Cheng Tian.

His manner of speaking was very similar, but it seemed, at this moment, he was trying very hard to hide something.

Whether he is an enemy or a friend, it has not been determined ...

Tangning decided not to explain herself to Lan Xi. Instead, a gentle smile appeared on his face as he turned to look at the stage; the host had already begun.

Luo Hao breathed a sigh of relief. If Tangning revealed on the spot that she had never received an offer from Cheng Tian, it would be very difficult for her to explain herself. So, she had to think of a way to pull Tangning aside.

Luo Hao continued to focus his attention on Tangning; he really wanted to know what she was thinking. But no matter what it was, it was important for him to take her away if the situation got out of hand.

So, she pretended her hand slipped as she spilled a glass of water all over Tangning's white dress.

Tangning felt a cold sensation as she was drenched by a glass of icy water ...

Most importantly, when it got wet, her chiffon dress became a little transparent; it was not very glamorous.

"Sorry Miss Tang...I've wetted your dress..." Luo Hao immediately apologized.

Tangning knew Luo Hao had done this on purpose, but as usual, she remained calm as she shook her head, "It's okay."

The problem was, it was currently October and Tangning wasn't wearing much clothes, but her clothes were now also drenched, so she couldn't help but start shivering as she subconsciously rubbed her arms. At this moment, the pianist on his left gently pushed him forward as he placed the black suit on his shoulder...

After seeing this, Tangning immediately glanced at Mo Ting.

He realized he was wearing only a white shirt and his jacket was currently in the hands of a pianist.

He did not hand it over himself to avoid suspicion. But, Tangning felt extremely warm after receiving this jacket.

An envious appearance quickly surrounded him ...

It was Mo Ting's jacket...

So many people just wanted to touch it, but they had no chance!

However, at this moment, it was in Tangning's embrace.

Indeed, only her husband knew how to care for her lovingly.

Tangning wrapped herself tightly in the jacket as it overlapped on top of her feet. She quickly sent a message to Long Jie who was waiting outside and asked her to go buy a dress for her to change.

Luo Hao watched Tangning cover herself with Mo Ting's jacket; he felt he had actually gone too far. At the time of the incident, he actually wanted to give her his jacket, but at the same time, he really wanted to force her away.

Fortunately, after that, Tangning did not speak to Lan Xi at all. Luo Hao sighed in relief. But, she was also a little disappointed; tangning was not the type to waste such an opportunity...

Not long after, the charity event was almost over. While Lan Xi went to the bathroom, Tangning finally got a chance to talk to Luo Hao as she turned to face him, "Are you thinking by stopping me this time, I think, will you be able to stop me for the rest of my life?"

Luo Hao was stunned for a moment; he didn't expect Tangning to be so straightforward.

"I feel like you're different from Yang Jing."

Luo Hao remained silent for a few seconds before he decided to answer honestly, "President Lan had previously instructed me to contact you, she wants to contract you. But I didn't follow his instructions. What I did tonight was not because I was afraid the truth would be revealed, but because I didn't want to be humiliated on such an occasion."

"I don't want to explain why I'm doing this, but even if it's not me, someone else will; you've been blocking too many people."
