Chapter 1497: He Is My Son (70)
That was a very clear sign of rejection from Mo Xicheng. Director Li’s expression darkened at once.
He looked at Mo Xicheng with narrowed eyes and sneered, “I hear that this collaboration with me is your first project with the company. If you don’t secure this project, won’t the people in your company feel that you’re incompetent?”
Mo Xicheng lowered his gaze and replied, “Director Li shouldn’t worry about this.”
Director Li frowned as he looked at Mo Xicheng. After a while he said, “You’re sure that you don’t wish to collaborate with me?”
He stood up at this point. Since Mo Xicheng was not going to come and sit next to him, then he would go and sit next to Mo Xicheng.
After taking a seat next to Mo Xicheng, he did not speak and just reached out to touch Mo Xicheng’s thigh.
Before he could make contact, Mo Xicheng had already grabbed his wrist.
Director Li turned to look at Mo Xicheng. The latter was looking at him with an unfathomable expression in his eyes.
Director Li gulped and said, “Mo Xicheng, I like men like you. If you don’t like me coming onto you, I’ll let you take me. How about that?”
As he said this, he moved closer to the young man.
Mo Xicheng was so disgusted that he almost threw up all of his lunch.
He smirked and asked, “Director Li, I wonder if you remember Liu Liu?”
Director Li froze at the mention of this name.
Liu Liu had been a popular young star who had been propelled into hot popularity five years ago, when he had acted in a TV series. But after that, he had disappeared from the scene and no one knew where he had gone.
Director Li squinted and coughed once, saying, “I don’t know. What’s the matter?”
Mo Xicheng narrowed his eyes and questioned, “You don’t know?”
There was a murderous look in his eyes as he looked at the other man with hatred.
Liu Liu and him had gone into show business at about the same time. They had been in the same company and were as close as brothers. At the time, Mo Xicheng had been given an opportunity to act in a TV series, but because he had wished to keep a low profile, he had passed the opportunity to Liu Liu.
Then Liu Liu had shot to fame.
One day, Liu Liu caught Director Li’s eyes and was asked to meet with Director Li to discuss a lead role in his next film.
At the time, Director Li’s sexual orientation had still been largely unknown so no one had known what he was like.
Mo Xicheng had waited to hear good news from Liu Liu, but the man did not call that night.
The next day, when he tried calling Liu Liu, he found that the man’s cell phone had been turned off.
Later on, he found the man at home.
The man was in a bad state then. Director Li had set his eyes on him and tried to sleep with the man, but he hadn’t agreed. Given this, Director Li had drugged him and that was how he had eventually fallen prey to him. When Mo Xicheng found out about this, he got furious.
But what followed after this was even more infuriating.
After Liu Liu was assaulted for the first time, he refused to yield to Director Li again. As a result, the director had taken him out of the role he had gotten and gave it to someone else.
In addition, Director Li released pictures of Liu Liu and accused the man of trying to seduce him. This had been a big scandal at the time.
Later on, Liu Liu’s parents fell ill and passed away from the stress and impact caused by this matter. Liu Liu fell into a depression, took all the money he had and left for another country to start a new life. He never reappeared in the industry.
As Liu Liu’s good friend, Mo Xicheng had long wanted to avenge the man.
But in the past years, Mo Xicheng had always kept a low profile because of his family situation. Besides, he had never had the opportunity to meet Director Li, so he had pushed the matter to the back of his mind.
But now…
