Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Ye Yunyang turned and reached a hand toward Yan Su and said to her, “Little girl, I hope we’ll work happily together.”

“Yeah, me too.” Yan Su was so excited that her face reddened.

After hearing Ye Yunyang sing, she didn’t care if Director Li would pick her or not. After all, Ye Yunyang was excellent at singing. She sincerely admired him.

The songs they wrote were about the same level. However, Ye Yunyang was much more experienced than her, so he was very likely to win. If Mo Liuxi didn’t speak for her, she would certainly lose.

In the end, she unexpectedly got both the theme and the ending song.

She couldn’t believe it.

“You both created good lyrics and music. So, I hope that you two can work together well,” Li Ming said smilingly. “Next, my assistant will help you sign the contract. I would like to have your support on all sorts of promotional events during the production of the film.”

“No problem.” Yan Su nodded. She sneakily glanced at Mo Liuxi, and found him looking at his phone, as if he had nothing to do with what was happening.

She smiled faintly. She understood he was not as cold as he looked. He was just like his sister.

Pei Wei walked out of the studio with Yan Su and Ye Yunyang. Before leaving, she glared at Yan Su.

Jiaojiao covered her mouth and whispered, “Why did she look at you like that? She lost to you already.”

“Shh…” Yan Su put a finger against her lips and said in a deep voice, “She is arrogant, but capable. Otherwise, Director Li wouldn’t have invited her here. She lost this time because she’s too self-righteous.”

She felt lucky that she was comparatively more hard-working.

After signing the contract, Yan Su and Ye Yunyang exchanged phone numbers and WeChat numbers. As they prepared to leave, Yan Su got a message from Mo Liuxi —’Buy me dinner tonight.’

She smiled and snorted silently. He acted so coldly and pretended not to know her a few minutes ago, but now, he was asking her to buy him dinner.

He had done her a big favor, so of course, she would buy him dinner.

She replied with —’Sure. What do you prefer for dinner? How about I cook for you at home? I don’t want the reporters taking pictures of us.’

Mo Liuxi —’We eat at home every day. I’m bored. How about we go for an outing and do a barbecue this weekend? You’ll do the barbecue, and I’ll eat.’

Yan Su didn’t see that coming. She didn’t know how to barbecue, but she assumed it wouldn’t be hard.

Going for an outing was a good idea. Ever since she started her career, she rarely went out.

Yan Su liked the idea. ‘Okay. Should we invite your sister and Mr. Nian? The two of us alone might be boring.’

Mo Liuxi replied — ‘No. My sister is pregnant. Nian Junting won’t let her touch barbecue. Besides, he would sit beside us and talk about how barbecue will bring cancer to people.’

Yan Su found him very right. Mr. Nian only ate in A-grade places and would never let Luosang come out alone. Currently, Luosang was like a first-class national protected animal to Nian Junting.

Soon, Mo Liuxi sent her another message. ‘I won’t be bored. With delicious food, I’ll have fun, even if I’m with a doll.’

Yan Su didn’t know how to respond to that.

Why don’t you go with a doll then? she thought unhappily.

So, she would be there only to make barbecue for him?

‘It’s a deal then,’ Mo Liuxi added.

…

In front of the French window, Mo Liuxi was reading the messages on his WeChat. He was obviously in a good mood, as a big smile had emerged on his face.

Li Ming glanced at him, then kicked him under the table, saying in a low voice, “Who are you texting? Why are you smiling that way? Do you have a girlfriend?”
