Mo Ting and Tangning were about to meet the French Director at her residence, so Mo Ting led Tangning there casually. However, on the way to the manor, Mo Ting found a black car trailing them.
It was not difficult to ascertain who it was, as their camera equipment was reflected in the sunlight. But, Mo Ting pretended not to notice as his lips curved into a smile. He then sped up the car and immediately drove to the manor garage.
After seeing the man, Tangning realized Mo Ting had come to see the French Director, Coque.
In the international scene he is very famous and has previously won an Oscar for Best Director. However, after getting married and dedicating more time to her daughter, her production had decreased in quantity.
Maybe because his wife is overseas and he has to take care of his own daughter, he looks very tired. The little boy was currently clinging to his thighs unwilling to eat breakfast.
Coque's image fell apart as he smiled apologizing to the couple, "Sorry, I really don't think I have time to talk about our collaboration. that's it at all!"
Mo Ting laughed gently as he pointed at Tangning and replied, "My wife can help you with this little matter. As for our collaboration, I'm sure you'll be interested."
Coque analyzed Tangning and adjusted the golden frame on her nose, "Do you guys have kids too?"
"No, but my wife is very gentle and considerate...I'm sure she can handle the child better than Mr. Coque," Mo Ting replied straightforwardly.
Coque shrugged, "Then I need to trouble Madam."
Tangning's French was no worse than Mo Ting's language, so she directly approached the little girl, lifted her into her arms and said to the two men, "You guys go talk, go talk, leave the boy with me, I'll take good care of him. If I really can't, I'll ask the nanny for help."
Mo Ting watched as Tangning carried the child. His heart suddenly felt a little moved as he lowered his head and asked her, "Are you really okay?"
"Yes," Tangning nodded her head, gesturing for him not to underestimate her!
Coque looked surprised at his daughter who did not fight back. In Tangning's embrace, she unexpectedly obeyed. So, he asked the little girl, "Why is it so hard for me to carry you?"
The little girl laughed out loud and hugged Tangning's neck...
It seems that the boy is basing his preference on good looks!
After which, the two men entered the study room to chat. Meanwhile, Tangning carried the little girl to a patch of grass in the garden. He had asked the waiter before and they told him that the grass had undergone special treatment and was safe to sit on. So, he took the child straight to the grass and sat down.
The little girl was named Kathy. He is an adorable little brat. Fortunately, Tangning was quite patient towards the children...
...
"Although Director Coque's latest film 'Escape' broke box office sales in Western markets, it did not open up to Asian markets."
"Yes, I admit, this is true," Coque replied in a serious tone, "After all, Eastern and Western cultures are very different and I have no interest in making Oriental films. I don't like Eastern actors/actresses; they're not good at acting."
"Yes, I agree, there are indeed more Eastern 'celebrities' than true actors. But, I think you should look at the script first, before giving me an answer. Finding an actor wasn't the case," Mo Ting pulled out a script and handed it to Coque, "Think about it."
Coque saw the cover of the script. It had no bells and whistles to attract attention, it only had one word, 'Stupid'.
Idiot...
What an interesting name. Coque could not help but open the script.
The story is about a talented athlete and an actress who gives birth to a child after a one-night-stand. To protect his status, he handed the child over.
However, this student was the dumbest child in the world. No matter how simple the task was, he never seemed to take it.
Worst of all, the boy's parents could not be reached. He felt he had been deceived, so he tried many times to leave the child.
Eventually, the boy was adopted by his enemy. Not only that, they discover a child's talents and train him to be successful.
This boy has the same athletic talent as himself and broke many world records. As this boy stood on stage to receive his medal, he only said one thing, "My father left me 12 times! I want to prove to him that he ab*stard!"
After reading the script, Coque patted his thigh excitedly, "Excellent! It's brilliant!"
"Then... does Mr.Coque still refuse?" Mo Ting rubbed his lower lip confidently.
"The draft is very good, me..." Coque's eyes sparkled, "...I agree with the collaboration, but for the actor..."
"I guarantee he'll be a great actor."
"OK," Coque nodded in agreement.
A moment later, the two men heard cheerful laughter echoing from the garden. Coque held onto the script and approached the window to find Tangning hugging Kathy as they rolled around on the grass. She couldn't help but laugh, "Your wife seems to like children. Are you planning on having a child?"
"I want him to enjoy a few more years of being spoiled by me. After all, women have more restrictions than men. Once she becomes a mother, she'll be completely bonded."
Coque nodded his head, "You're right, President Mo. If it wasn't for my wife going to the United States and leaving me with the opportunity to take care of a child, I wouldn't have known how difficult it was. Your wife is very lucky."
"I'm the lucky one."
"Because that's the case, I don't think I need to hesitate anymore - let's sign a contract. I believe someone who loves his wife deeply will be able to produce a heart-wrenching and emotional film better than anyone. It'll be like the movie is your son."
Mo Ting looked at Tangning and smiled, "I can't deny, since being with her, everything I do seems to have meaning."
"Mr Coque, do you have a set of binoculars?"
"Yes..."
"Can I borrow it?"
Coque handed the binoculars to Mo Ting curiously. Mo Ting scanned the place and as expected, found a brave reporter sitting in a tree holding a camera ...
He is very good at taking candid photos. Unfortunately...
"Did someone stalk you? These reporters were disgusting," Coque was a little agitated as he watched Mo Ting put down the binoculars.
"No choice, my wife is too famous," Mo Ting explained, "She is also a model ..."
"I hope you two stay safe," Coque once again shook hands with Mo Ting before sitting down and signing the contract. As for the frivolous reporters outside ...
...they were sent by Editor Lin. Have they all arrived?
