Chapter 414: Song Xin’s True Colors
Nie Li used his eyes to signal Mo Li to get close to Han Xu. There was fury in Nie Li’s gaze. It looked like she would kill Mo Li if the latter did not follow her order. Therefore, Mo Li had no choice but to amble back towards Han Xu. After all, this was part of their plan. There were just some small changes to it.
From the looks of it, Nie Li wanted Mo Li to break up Song Xin and Han Xu… Or at least make sure the two did not continue to engage each other further.
Mo Li fixed a professional smile on her face. She picked up a flute of champagne before walking over.
Han Xu’s appearance here could only mean that he had kicked out his older brother who was once the CEO of Jing Nan Entertainment.
Song Xin clearly had seen Mo Li but she did not leave Han Xu’s side. Mo Li was not in a hurry. She walked over and greeted Song Xin politely. “Senior Song Xin, nice to meet you.”
“Hmm, not bad.” Song Xin sized Mo Li up from head to toe. So this is the newbie Tang Ze is promoting? Doesn’t look any different from the girls from the street. Song Xin rolled her eyes at Mo Li and her tone was hostile.
Mo Li chuckled internally. A smart bitch was different from a dumb bitch. They were both bitches but Qiao Qing would never think to show off her abilities clearly in front of the man she wanted to impress. Qiao Qing always appeared soft and weak.
There was a saying which goes: A dumb woman would only deal with other women, but a clever woman would know how to deal with men.
Mo Li smiled and turned to Han Xu. She handed him the glass of champagne, she noticed that his glass was empty. Han Xu reached out to accept her offering. Mo Li was in the industry so she had to play by the rules. However, she did not expect Han Xu to directly grab her hand and pull her to his side, knocking Song Xin away. Mo Li frowned.
Han Xu didn’t seem to care about Song Xin’s reaction. “Mo Li, I didn’t expect to see you here.” Han Xu said like he did not just see Mo Li upstairs earlier.
Mo Li did not expose him and explained, “I was in the bathroom to fix my make-up.”
“And you knocked into the sink when you were in there?” Han Xu joked, referring to Mo Li’s incident with the water pipe.
“That’s right. It was why I was in the bathroom for so long.”
Just as Han Xu was about to say something, an angry roar came from the venue entrance. “Bastard Guo, get out now! Get your ass over here!” Mrs. Guo was highly efficient. She arrived so soon.
The reporters who were at the entrance were stunned. Clearly, they did not expect this to happen. They looked at each other and did not know what to say.
Boss Guo who was feeling up a young model had his face paled immediately. The flesh on his tummy shivered visibly. Everyone present was secretly delighted. They were quite thankful for such a drama to enliven the party.
Meanwhile, Mo Li noticed that Song Xin had been secretly observing her. Song Xin also glanced towards the reporters. She was planning something.
“Sister Mo Li, I heard that you were the ambassador for FM last season. The commercial shoots must be very difficult,” Song Xin began. Mo Li had no idea where the woman was going with this. “I also just finished this season’s commercial shoot for FM. In fact, I just came back from Hawaii. The island was beautiful, sadly you didn’t have the chance to go. Oh, sorry, I forgot that they didn’t pick you as their ambassador again. You wouldn’t be mad at me, would you?”
Finally, Mo Li realized the woman’s goal. Song Xin was trying to get under Mo Li’s skin by reminding Mo Li that she had stolen her ambassador spot. Actually, Mo Li was too busy performing the autopsy when the people from FM came to ask her so she rejected them. She told them she wanted to focus on her study.
“Sister Song Xin is my senior, how would I be mad at my senior? Come, I’ll toast to senior’s success.” Mo Li smiled as she raised her glass. Even though she didn’t want to be so fake, Mo Li could feel Nie Li’s burning eyes on her. Mo Li smiled and continued the interaction with Song Xin.
Looking at Mo Li, Song Xin raised her brow imperceptibly. In Song Xin’s eyes, Mo Li had fully lowered her guard. Song Xin calculated the time and reached over to pull at Mo Li’s wrist. However, Mo Li easily danced to the side. Song Xin’s hand knocked into the glass of champagne. The liquid that should splash on Mo Li ended up all over Han Xu instead.
“Sister Song Xin,” Mo Li said nervously, “I am so sorry. It’s your choice to not accept my toast but why bring an innocent party into it?” Life was a stage. Since Mo Li had chosen to be an actor, then she had to show that she was a good actor in life too. She could get into character at any moment.
The attention of everyone present immediately shifted from Mr. and Mrs. Guo to the three of them.
