Chapter 739: Satisfy President Gu

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Mohan stopped walking, he turned his head to look at the woman beside him. With a low and stern tone, he said tersely, "Let go."

Let go.

His words were so cold.

Tang Mo'er's gaze shifted, she looked at Little Munchkin, who was still sleeping. Her grip over his shirt tightened. "President Gu, what are you doing? Let's not drag Niuniu into this matter, Niuniu—"

"Niuniu is my son, who are you to even meddle in our affairs?"

There wasn't a single ounce of emotion on Gu Mohan's face, the only thing she could notice was his sharp, piercing gaze.

"I'm really fond of Niuniu—"

Before Tang Mo'er could even finish her words, he interrupted her abruptly. "Miss Tang, you can keep your 'fondness' to yourself. There are many people who are fond of Niuniu, you're just one of the countless many. Don't think too much of yourself."

Tang Mo'er froze.

He was right, who was she to even deserve to be fond of Niuniu?

Every single woman who threw themselves at Gu Mohan were fond of Niuniu, she wasn't a significant one.

Tang Mo'er retracted her arm.

Gu Mohan's face darkened once he saw her retract her arm. He gave her a cold glance before he stretched out his legs to leave.

Once they were gone, the apartment fell silent again. For a long time after, Tang Mo'er just stood on the spot, alone and unmoving. It felt as though her heart was somewhat emptied.

What was this feeling?

…

On the set of 'The Concubine'.

Once Director Haining shouted 'cut', Tang Mo'er and the actor portraying Emperor Jingrui, male lead Zhou Yang sat up.

It was a bed scene, Tang Mo'er was dressed in an embroidered red dudou1. Qi Xi quickly walked over once she heard the cut and covered Tang Mo'er's body with a piece of clothing.

"Mo'er, you've managed to get through the scenes without any cuts. Your acting has definitely improved when compared to three years ago," Haining praised her.

Scriptwriter Fangfang nodded in agreement. "Mo'er, I was originally worried that you wouldn't be able to portray the role of Shangguan Man'er well after I made her a mute but you've definitely proven me wrong. You've done a great job, when this episode gets uploaded onto the video streaming site tonight, this entire bed scene is going to blow up the whole internet!"

'The Concubine's' filming and online streaming schedule was almost in line. There were already four episodes released online and the total views had already amounted to over two billion views. It had become the most popular drama series that was adapted from a web novel.

The scene of Tang Mo'er's 'Plumage Dance' was particularly popular, it was even edited into a gif and frequently circulated online. Her exposure was definitely greater than that of the female lead, Bai Feifei.

In contrast, Bai Feifei hadn't garnered any attention for herself in 'The Concubine' at all.

Tang Mo'er smiled. "Director Haining, Fangfang, I must thank you both for all of this. It was only because you made the decision to change Shangguan Man'er's role into a mute that I could gain this opportunity to spice it up."

Director Haining and the scriptwriter exchanged glances. It wasn't their idea, but rather, an instruction from the higher-ups.

Their instructions were clear cut, they wanted more exposure for Tang Mo'er and were ready to provide her with all the support necessary.

"Oh, Director Haining, who's going to portray the role of Jian Yuheng in 'The Concubine'?" Qi Xi asked.

Jian Yuheng was considered the supporting male character. Other than the lead, Emperor Jingrui, he was not only Shangguan Man'er's childhood friend but also the love of her life.

When the previous dynasty ended, the princess from the previous dynasty, Shangguan Man'er was forced to break off her relationship with Jian Yuheng. Emperor Jingrui had forcibly brought Shangguan Man'er back to the palace after he confessed his love for her and she was conferred with the title of Imperial Consort. He even built up a special palace for her.

That special palace became one of the most coveted places by all women on earth, but to Shangguan Man'er, it was also the place that made her feel isolated and trapped.

When Jian Yuheng appeared again, he had already become the highest ranking general in the army. They met each other in the palace again and they were so in love that they decided to elope.

Once their elope was a success, under the starry nights, Jian Yuheng and Shangguan Man'er had a sex scene while riding on a horse.

But who was going to play the role of Jian Yuheng?

The male lead, Zhou Yang was portrayed by an experienced male actor who was in his 40s, he already had a family and wasn't going to be 'shipped' with Tang Mo'er. On the contrary, the Jian Yuheng's role was a formidable general, it was very likely that viewers would ship Shangguan Man'er and the mysterious Jian Yuheng as a couple.

They were even going to be filming a bed scene on the horse.

Haining quickly spoke up, "Mo'er, the actor playing the role of Jian Yuheng has already been chosen, he'll be coming tomorrow."

"Who is it?" Tang Mo'er asked.

Haining laughter and simply replied, "It's a secret for now."

…

After filming, Tang Mo'er changed out of her clothes and removed her makeup. Qi Xi stood beside her while she started being gossipy. "Mo'er, who's going to portray the role of Jian Yuheng? Director Haining is so secretive about this whole thing."

Tang Mo'er ran her fingers through her hair as she replied, "I have no idea either…"

A sarcastic voice was suddenly heard from behind. "Jian Yuheng is definitely going to be portrayed by an unpopular actor. It's wishful thinking that you expect some popular actor with both skills and looks to be acting alongside you. Dream again!"

Tang Mo'er lifted her eyes, only to see Bai Feifei and her manager in front of them.

It was Bai Feifei's manager who said those words but Bai Feifei had pretended to be a good person by cutting her manager off. "How could you say that? Tang Mo'er is going to have a sex scene with Jian Yuheng soon, it's only fair that she yearns for a handsome and popular male actor."

Her manager instantly let out a sarcastic bark of laughter. "If the protective measures aren't well done, they'll probably end up having some real sex while riding the horse."

"Hey, why are there two crows talking crap here. Get lost right away!" Qi Xi shouted at them.

Bai Feifei gave Tang Mo'er a condescending sneer. "Aren't you formidable? I'm waiting to see who's going to have a bed scene with you."

With that, Bai Feifei left with her manager in tow.

Qi Xi was fuming with rage. "Mo'er, this Bai Feifei must be so jealous of you that she's doing this. All the attention is on you now, she's just being salty1."

Tang Mo'er didn't display any expression on her face. She merely put on a set of earrings, her tone impassive. "Don't bother with her."

"I'm praying to the gods that Jian Yuheng's going to be portrayed by a crazily handsome superstar. Oh my god can you imagine? Bai Feifei is going to be so furious if that happens."

It was then that Qi Xi noticed the earrings that Tang Mo'er was wearing. It was rather dainty, a rose gold chain with a little apple hanging at the bottom. In a single glance, it was able to grab her attention.

More recently, Tang Mo'er had been wearing such delicate jewellery. All the pieces she wore were unique and couldn't be found in stores. It was simply breathtaking.

"Mo'er, netizens have noticed the jewelry you've been wearing recently. Every single day without fail, they've been asking for you to tell them where they can purchase the same jewelry. I really do feel that you should accept an endorsement for a jewelry company, it's going to blow up in popularity!"

Tang Mo'er stood up, looking at her face in the mirror and she raised her delicate brows. "I'll only endorse my own jewelry."

I'll only endorse my own jewelry.

But it wasn't time yet.

…

CC Bar.

In the VIP room, Gu Mohan sat in the main seat. He held a cigarette between two fingers while he puffed on it.

One of his guests was holding a beauty in his arms while he laughed. "President Gu, what's troubling you? You've been smoking nonstop ever since you came inside the room, you must have some pent up desires inside of you."

The man then patted the beauty's shoulder. "Quick, go and satisfy President Gu."

Hearing his words, the beauty quickly got up, moving in the direction of the man seated in the main seat.
