Ruan Mowei seemed to be greatly stimulated. She stared at Huo Yuanlu in front of her fiercely. Then, she suddenly curled the corners of her lips and laughed out loud.
The reason why she became what she is now started three days ago.
Ruan Mo was fully prepared for the role given to her by the director, and kept swearing that she would become famous again through this role.
"Hey Mowei, is this Chinese director reliable?"
Meng Yao saw her reading the script like a madman, not knowing what was in her mind, and suddenly asked her this.
Ruan Mowei didn't understand the meaning of her words. She waved her hand, asking her not to delay her efforts, and said, "You don't understand. Director Guo particularly appreciates me."
"Ever since you got the script, Xie Liancheng hasn't called you, and Director Guo hasn't called you either..." Meng Yao pursed her lips, as if she was about to say something but hesitated. After a long while, when Ruan Mowei's attention shifted from the script to her, she pretended to continue, "Are you being fooled? I don't think your script is thick. It's normal for such a small role to be suddenly replaced..."
What Meng Yao said was true. For the young female celebrities who brought money into the crew, their godfathers and boyfriends would give money to the director, and the director would first choose to exchange them for this kind of role.
"What do you mean the script isn't thick? This is just one of them."
Even at this time, Ruan Mowei was still trying to save face and refused to admit that she was just a supporting role, so she pretended to be calm and boasted.
However, only she herself knew how much of a turmoil Meng Yao's words had stirred in her heart.
After thinking for a while, Ruan Mowei was completely shaken by the other party's words. She frowned and asked her "friend" for his opinion, saying, "Do you really think I've been deceived again this time?"
Meng Yao just thought it was funny, but her face remained calm. After all, it was none of her business. She pretended to be concerned and said, "Yes, Mo Wei, you should ask, otherwise..."
Before she could finish, she saw Ruan Mowei picked up the phone from the table with a worried look on her face, looked at her deeply, and walked out the door without looking back.
"It's really easy to fool."
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Meng Yao put on a sarcastic smile.
She looked around the room. Ruan Mowei's current situation was really sad.
On the other side, Ruan Mowei walked to the end of the corridor. If anyone passed by her at this moment, they would immediately notice that her hands were shaking violently.
"No... Director Guo won't lie to me."
She murmured to herself, clearly speaking to herself to comfort herself.
She took several deep breaths and finally calmed down. She leaned against the freezing white wall and then called Director Guo.
They had contacted each other once before. Director Guo asked her to go to a hotel, but she thought the hotel was too low-end and said she would go next time.
Ruan Mowei stared intently at the dialing screen on her phone. She didn't know what the other party was doing. He hadn't even answered her call...
She swallowed hard and kept begging, "Hurry up and answer my call!"
As she spoke, she looked up and looked distractedly in the direction of Meng Yao's house, fearing that she would come out and see her current miserable state, or even think that she was no longer of any use to her and kick her out of her house.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mowei's hands, which had just stopped shaking for a while, began to shake violently again.
Just when she was about to cry out of despair, the phone suddenly connected.
Director Guo's nonchalant voice came from the other end of the phone. He simply said, "Hello? Ruan Mowei?"
His tone was no longer the same as before when he called her "Mo Wei Tiantian" in a sweet way.
Ruan Mowei was startled and her eyelids twitched wildly. Meng Yao's speculation that someone else brought money into the group and replaced her role kept flashing in her mind.
She won't allow this to happen!
"Hello? Is anyone there? If you don't say anything, I'll hang up."
Ruan Mowei vaguely heard a sweet female voice asking Director Guo for advice on acting. She felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. Before she could open her mouth, she heard Director Guo urging her.
She immediately changed to a very flattering tone and said to him, "Director Guo, I'm Mo Wei. I have some ideas about the script, but I don't know how to make it shine. Could you give me some guidance?"
Upon hearing this, Director Guo concealed his surprise and said impatiently, "Okay, I'll contact you later."
After saying that, the call was hung up before Ruan Mowei could show her friendliness again.
What she didn't know was that while she was rejoicing that she had not been replaced, the Chinese director had decided to give the role to the younger cousin of a local real estate developer after he was done with her.
And that little cousin was none other than the girl whom Ruan Mowei had just heard calling Director Guo sweetly.
"Liancheng, this idea you gave me is really useful."
Director Guo hung up the phone, put the phone back in his pocket, and turned to look at Xie Liancheng who was sitting behind him with a smile.
He raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
Director Guo continued, "This Ruan Mowei, I was so nice to her before, but she ignored me. Now I listened to you and ignored her, but I didn't expect her to rush to me... This woman is really a bitch."
After hearing his sigh, Xie Liancheng gave a sarcastic smile.
"I heard that someone named Gu Mingche contacted you a few days ago?"
Director Guo chuckled twice and scratched his head. He had originally planned to keep it a secret from Xie Liancheng, but after all, the two of them had agreed before that Director Guo could not hide anything about Ruan Mowei from him.
"Yes, Liancheng, you are truly powerful. Nothing can be hidden from your ears..."
"Get straight to the point."
Xie Liancheng raised his eyes and looked at him. Although there was no impatience in his eyes, Director Guo still vaguely felt that he was not in a good mood today.
Director Guo coughed lightly twice, trying to hide his embarrassment, and said, "Indeed, someone claiming to be Mr. Gu came to see me with his assistant. He asked for a large sum of money, and the only condition was that he give me a Nenmo to replace Ruan Mowei."
Xie Liancheng frowned, and for a moment, he was curious about how Director Guo would respond to Gu Mingche's request.
As everyone knows, Director Guo is a ruthless character who will plunder any passing goose. Faced with Gu Mingche offering money to him, who would believe that he would give up the duck that flew into his mouth so foolishly!
What's more, this duck is visibly plump...
