Chapter 1474: He Is My Son (47)
Sitting on the sofa, there was a hint of melancholy in Mo Xicheng’s eyes. But overall, he was still quite different from the lifeless person he had once been. Although he was still gloomy and distant, there was a wild ambition within—an inexplicable enthusiasm.
After saying those words, he continued, “I’ve just stepped into the business and have been given the task of managing investments. Actually, I have my eyes set on a new film.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Liangchuan asked, “What movie?”
“A sequel of Ambition.”
Shen Liangchuan couldn’t help but laugh aloud.
The recent film Ambition was actually rather depressing. Cao Cao was slandered and, from being a righteous person, he slowly became someone that had to adapt and fit into the society.
The film being screened currently was only the prequel. The real story of Ambition would be the events that took place after Cao Cao betrayed the dynasty.
Hence, Director Wang would film a sequel for sure.
Given the success of the prequel, in addition to Mo Xicheng breaking out of his shell now, there was little doubt that he would be chosen as the male lead in the sequel.
Director Wang’s position and status meant that countless people in the circle would be eager to invest in him. Hence, he had never lacked money. If it weren’t for the fact that Mo Xicheng was the male lead, it wouldn’t have even been possible for the Mo family enterprise to come in as an investor.
The moment Mo Xicheng said this, Shen Liangchuan laughed and remarked, “We’re thinking the same.”
Mo Xicheng raised an eyebrow and asked, “You are thinking of investing as well?”
The man nodded and said, “The script for the sequel of Ambition is out. I think it was given to your manager. When I read it, I thought it was very interesting. So I can foresee that investing in this film will definitely be a profitable venture.”
“That’s right.” Mo Xicheng nodded.
Shen Liangchuan continued, “So let’s make Director Wang happy with a few drinks later, and the matter can be easily settled.”
Mo Xicheng nodded again.
As they sat there, the two men discussed this.
After the discussion, they headed over to Director Wang and, in the midst of laughter and idle chat, sealed the deal.
–
The party came to an end quickly.
Because Qiao Lian was pregnant, she and Shen Liangchuan had to leave the event before she got too tired.
As the male lead, Mo Xicheng had to stay till the end.
After everyone had left the party, Mo Xicheng took Shi Nianyao home.
On the way, Shi Nianyao kept turning to look at Mo Xicheng.
Upon realizing this, he smiled and asked, “What are you looking at?”
“Looking at my handsome husband!”
Mo Xicheng: …
Mo Xicheng shook his head. Shi Nianyao continued, “Idol, I have a question for you but you have to answer this seriously.”
Mo Xicheng agreed and said, “Go ahead.”
She looked at him intently and asked, “Do you feel that Shen Liangchuan is handsome?”
What? What sort of question was that?
The man frowned and looked at Shi Nianyao provocatively.
Shi Nianyao cleared her throat and then lowered her head.
Mo Xicheng finally answered, “Uh huh, he’s alright.”
Between men, it wasn’t as though they cared about superficial appearance.
Shi Nianyao looked up as though in shock. She exclaimed, “You- you were single, without a girlfriend, for many years. Idol, did- did you really like Best Actor Shen?”
Mo Xicheng: …!
His expression darkened as he asked her, “Has your period ended?”
She nodded blankly.
He said, “That’s good then.”
Shi Nianyao: …??
“Tonight, I’ll make it clear to you if I actually prefer men or women.”
Shi Nianyao: …!!
