Chapter 8: The Domineering CEO’s Sweet Wife (VIII)



Shen Lu came over with a twist of her waist and said in a strange voice, "Hey, who knows whether you stayed up late to read the script or stayed up late to accompany the old man? It's a pity for us who are hardworking and motivated. Our diligent efforts are not as good as the achievements of some people in one night, hey~"

Su Mo gritted her teeth and said nothing, feeling extremely uncomfortable. This wasn't the first time Shen Lu had said these things. The first time she heard them, she would have argued with them angrily, but Shen Lu wouldn't believe her or listen. She would have said them again the next time, even more harshly and excessively. Over time, she became too lazy to argue with them. Those who are innocent will be innocent. Arguing with such people is a complete waste of time!

After Shen Lu finished her sarcasm, Su Mo had no reaction. She snorted in her heart, and caught a glimpse of the director and screenwriter walking towards her. She screamed, her body leaned to the side, and the next second she fell to the ground.

"Sister Su, I just want to comfort you. I know you're upset, but...how could you push me?"

Su Mo opened his eyes wide and looked at Shen Lu who fell to the ground, "What are you talking about? I didn't push you!"

At this time, the director and screenwriter arrived. The director frowned and asked, "What's going on? Shen Lu, why are you on the ground?"

Shen Lu's agent quickly ran over to help Shen Lu up. Shen Lu was wearing a costume made of gauze, which looked very fairy-like. Shen Lu seemed to raise her hand unintentionally, and the long sleeves made of gauze slid down lightly, revealing the scratches on Shen Lu's arm.

Shen Lu squeezed out a few tears at the right time, and looked at the director and screenwriter with red eyes, "Director Liu, Sister Su Mo didn't push me on purpose, she was just in a bad mood, I don't blame her..."

As soon as Shen Lu said this, almost everyone thought that it was Su Mo who pushed Shen Lu, and because the two were close to each other just now, from a distance it really looked like Su Mo reached out and pushed Shen Lu.

Listening to the whispers of the surrounding staff and the occasional scrutiny, Su Mo was suddenly speechless. She spoke anxiously, "Director Liu, I didn't push her. She fell to the ground on her own!"

Shen Lu covered her face and sobbed softly, "Sister Su Mo, I've already said that I don't blame you, why are you still saying this to me? Who would deliberately fall to the ground...it hurts so much..."

Su Mo felt a tightness in her chest, making her uncomfortable. She pointed at Shen Lu, who was pretending to be so arrogant, and said, "Don't talk nonsense! It was obviously you who fell down!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. Sister Su Mo, I've already told you I don't blame you. Why are you still accusing me..."

"Shut up, everyone!" Director Liu yelled. "This is a film set, not a place for you to quarrel. Chen Lu, have your agent take you to treat your wound. Su Mo, go to the lounge with the screenwriter and have him explain the revised script to you. That's it, everyone, go back to your jobs!"

As soon as Director Liu got angry, everyone shut up. Shen Lu looked at Su Mo triumphantly, and walked away with the help of her agent.

Su Mo felt a loss and followed the screenwriter to the lounge with his head down.

Director Liu looked at these two troublesome people and felt his head hurt again.

In the lounge, the screenwriter finished explaining the newly revised plot to Su Mo and left. Xu Liu came over with a cup of warm water and handed it to Su Mo.

Su Mo took it silently and said thank you.

Xu Liu sat down next to Su Mo, a hint of helplessness flickering across her beautiful features. "Su Mo, although Shen Lu's actions just now were sinister and despicable, they had a huge impact. Everyone in the crew thought you pushed her. I'm sure that soon your comments about bullying your seniors will appear online..."

Su Mo lowered his head, clenching his hands at his sides. "But I didn't push the tower, Sister Xu, you know that."

"I know, but others don't because we have no evidence. This is how the entertainment industry works. If you want to be famous, you have to endure all kinds of criticism and slander. If you want to succeed, you have to pay the price."

The price? Right and wrong are reversed, black and white are not distinguished, everyone slanders you, abuses you, it is clearly not your fault, you clearly did not do it, but others still blame you, these... are the price?

Su Mo opened his eyes blankly, his mind was blank.

And things were exactly as Xu Liu said. Almost soon after the incident happened on the crew, news spread all over the Internet that Su Mo was acting like a big shot and bullying his seniors on the crew.

Following the unspoken rules, words like "playing big" and "disrespecting seniors" appeared under Su Mo's Weibo, and the topic of Su Mo getting out of the entertainment industry has already rushed into the top ten of the hot search list.

After a day of filming, Su Mo returned to the hotel arranged by the crew to rest, but met an unexpected person at the door.

In the cafe, Su Mo and Song Mian sat on each side, with two cups of steaming hot coffee in front of them. Thick mist rose up, blurring their vision a little.

Song Mian sat leaning against a chair, his face very handsome. He looked at Su Mo across from him and was the first to speak, breaking the silence, "Momo, how have you been lately?"

Su Mo lowered his head and was very quiet.

Hearing Song Mian's question, she answered, "It's okay. Filming is very busy, and life on the set is very colorful."

Song Mian frowned as he listened. This was not what he wanted to hear. "Is what's said online true?"

Su Mo raised his head and looked at Song Mian in confusion, "What?"

Song Mian avoided Su Mo's gaze and continued, "Just... those photos of you going to the hotel with an old man..."

After hearing Song Mian's words, Su Mo was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled, "What do you think, Mr. Song?"

Song Mian didn't expect Su Mo to answer like this. He only saw his brows furrowed deeper and deeper. "The photo is real, there is no trace of synthesis, so Momo, why are you doing this? If you want something... you can come to me. You know how I feel about you..."

"Shut up!" Su Mo said sternly, "I think Mr. Song is mistaken. How you feel about me is your own business and none of my business. If Mr. Song doesn't have anything else to say, I'll leave first!"

After saying that, Su Mo picked up her bag, stood up, and turned around to leave. President Song immediately stood up and grabbed Su Mo's hand, "Su Mo! What do you mean by saying these words? What do you mean my thoughts are none of your business? Explain it to me clearly!"

Su Mo turned her head away, not even giving Song Mian a glance. She twisted her wrist hard, trying to break free from Song Mian's hand, but Song Mian didn't intend to let go. He tightened his grip, getting tighter and tighter. From an invisible angle, Su Mo's wrist had been pinched red by Song Mian.

"Let me go!"

A clear female voice came from the door of the cafe, and the sound of footsteps came from far away. The next second, Song Mian felt a huge force on his arm, forcing him to let go of Su Mo's wrist.
