"How is it possible? You're President Mo's girlfriend."
"This film has a great script and a high-quality production team. Opportunities like this are rare. If you were given a choice, would you agree to act in it?"
Hearing this particular reporter's question, Tangning slightly raised her eyebrows.
"After all, President Mo is your manager. There was no way he would not consider using one of his own artists first."
The reporter's voice was loud and direct. Words like this, when heard by the production team, naturally made them a little uncomfortable.
"I believe..."
"I believe the reporter asking such a question doesn't have to graduate from journalism," a clear and sharp voice cut from behind Tangning in the middle of the sentence, carrying with it a strong and domineering tone.
Tangning turned to find Yue Shanshan was approaching her side to help her answer the question, "President Mo whom I know is always fair and just. He never involved his personal life with business."
"Add more, don't take advantage of the fact that her boyfriend isn't around, to bully her."
On the surface, Yue Shanshan seemed to be helping him out of a difficult situation...
However, to Tangning, these words were somewhat thorny in her ears.
This discomfort was not visible on Tangning's face. He simply maintained his smile and said to the media, "Every decision of President Mo has gone through careful consideration and is most suitable for everyone. As for my performance today, it was only because of my appreciation for 'Stupid'. As I know the screenwriter well, I think I will show some support; no other reason."
After she spoke, she did not wait for the reporter or Yue Shanshan to respond. He just turned towards the exit and left.
Clearly seen, Tangning did not intend to accept Yue Shanshan's gesture of goodwill.
Because beneath the surface, what Yue Shanshan really wanted to say was: Are you guys kidding? Even if Mo Ting wanted to raise his girlfriend, he wouldn't choose a model who didn't know anything.
Does he know what acting is?"
Stick to the ground where you are and stop dabbling in everything.
Especially if there is such a big project.
"Tangning just left?"
"Yue Shanshan was kind enough to help her and she didn't even bother to say thank you."
Yue Shanshan listened to the reporters' discussions. "What do you know? The truth was, she went to plead with President Mo for the role, but she did not give it to him, so she was a little annoyed," her eyes carried a trace of darkness as she turned around leaving. Even though what he said was only for show, he could not deny that he meant it a little.
Tangning was Mo Ting's woman. If he wanted to put the idea into his mind, it was too easy. Moreover, if a model with no acting experience was involved in this film, wouldn't it treat all hardworking actors like a joke?
After the press release was over, Yue Shanshan left the place with her assistant. However, they meet J-King in the parking lot. Yue Shanshan carefully boarded J-King's car and asked, "Why are you here? I did what you told me to do. The reporters witnessed the disagreement between Tangning and I."
"You're really capable" praised J-King. "You only have about a hundred scenes to play, wait there."
"If you don't want Mo Ting to find out, it's better that you stop appearing in front of me," Yue Shanshan warned before opening the car door and leaving.
In reality, Yue Shanshan really admired the 'Stupid' script'. If he was not threatened, he would take this opportunity to aim for some major film awards.
But it's embarrassing...Maybe it's destiny!

[Tangning Appeared on Press Release And Disagreed With Yue Shanshan!]
[Tangning Allegedly Asks Her Boyfriend For Role in 'Stupid'!]
These were the headlines released by the media after they found Tangning on the press release. After Long Jie saw this, she squeezed the newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash.
"Silly! Is this reporter blind? When did our Tangning say she wanted to act?"
"In addition, even if he wanted to, what was wrong with that?" Long Jie couldn't accept the media's view of Tangning. In her eyes, not only did she think Tangning was born to be a model, she also thought she had the potential to become an actress. This could be seen every time he appeared on the runway. She has the ability to fuse her soul with the stage and the clothes/jewelry she wears; giving the impression that she can transform into anything.
He has the ability to blend in with any environment!
"As for stupid movie lovers, did they know what they were talking about when they said Tangning should remain a model and not ruin the film? They're the ones who ruined the movie. Their whole family ruined the movie! "
"They're not wrong," Tangning said as she casually flipped through the magazine, "To be honest I don't know how to act - that's the truth."
"But, is it necessary to say it in such a rude manner?"
Tangning was not affected at all. Not that he's being judged by the whole industry. There's no point in letting it get to him.
"To be honest, did President Mo really ask you to take part in the film?" Long Jie suddenly leaned on Tangning's shoulder and teased.
"Why would he do such a thing?" Tangning asked back.
"So he can broaden the scope of your career. Plus, according to your personality, I'm sure you'd love to try it out. Especially after the provocation from the media."
"But, it's a fact that I don't know anything about acting," Tangning gestured for Long Jie to change the subject. "Yue Shanshan will soon start filming her part. Let's ignore the gossip, it will soon subside."
"If he were to break into Hai Rui, Boss would teach him a lesson right now."
Tangning smiled helplessly, "We are not competitors, so there is nothing holding us back. She can insult me in the film and entertainment industry at will and I can also insult her in the modeling industry. We only compare our strengths to the weaknesses of others. There's nothing you need to worry about."
"I think you're right," Long Jie nodded as she finally agreed to Tangning's reasoning. "By the way, Huo Jingjing returned to Beijing. Since you don't have a job for the next few days, do you want to meet her?"
"Forget it," Tangning shook her head, "Let her spend more time with Fang Yu."
7 O'clock at night.
Mo Ting returned home to find Tangning lying on the sofa with the script in her hands. He immediately walked over and carried her in his arms.
Tangning was taking a light nap. As she woke up, she saw Mo Ting, so she immediately buried her head in his chest, "You're home ..."
"I saw what happened after the press release."
"That's no big deal .." Tangning replied gently. However, after a moment of contemplation, she suddenly added, "Does Yue Shanshan's agency have any intention of creating a sensation for her?"
"Why are you asking?"
"I somehow feel that the reporter's question has a sense of provocation," Tangning replied in a serious tone. "In addition, only Coque and Fearles have spoken to you about my appearance in the film. How do the reporters know?"
After hearing this, Mo Ting nodded as he gently stroked Tangning's head, "I'll take note of this. Wife, you have suffered ..."
"Judging from the calmness on your face, it seems, you've controlled everything?"
"Before signing Yue Shashan, I had already communicated with his agency. It was confirmed earlier that she did not have any schedule during the filming date. However, she suddenly asked us to shorten the filming time and claimed she had changed the schedule. From what I know, he only had one recent event to attend, and the show was over!" Mo Ting explained.
"Then, why are you still ..."
"Shhh...I have my plans," Mo Ting whispered as he gently laid her down on the soft bed.
