Chapter 419: Are You Deliberately Making Her Late


    Because of her appearance in ''Stupid'' and ''W.H.'', Tangning''s identity as an actress gradually


    formed a foundation in the public''s minds. And just like she did when she was still a model, her


    every step as an actress was fought with all her might. As a result, people felt convinced by her.


    The public''s trust towards Tangning once again increased as they directly ced her into the same


    category as top-notch actors like Lin Sheng and Bei Chendong. Even though she was still far from


    the same level as them, she at least strived to be a better actress. Unlike others, who would


    appear on multiple variety shows as soon as they be acknowledged, just to feed off their fame.


    The audition time for ''The Lost Rtive'' was set. But, apart from Tangning and Gu Heng, there


    were also actresses from many other agencies vying for the role of female lead, including a famous


    actress from South Korea.


    The director this time was the three-time international award-winning, Wei An. The reason why so


    many actresses were fighting for a main role in his film was because being in his films always stood


    a high chance at winning an award.


    What actor didn''t want to win an award?


    This was one of the main reasons why Mo Ting agreed to let Tangning audition for the film. He


    hoped his wife''s every sacrifice would be rewarded.


    In fact...


    ...she deserved to be rewarded with the best.


    ...


    12pm. Inside a random hotel.


    An old man dressed in a blue traditional shirt waved his fan as he walked into Director Wei An''s


    room apanied by his bodyguard. As soon as the two men met, the director reached out his


    hand warmly, "Elder Mo, I haven''t seen you in years. You still look as good as ever."


    Elder Moughed and sat down on the sofa, "How could Ipare to the endless glory you''ve


    achieved..."


    "Elder Mo, you are a senior artist. I dare notpare."


    "I''vee today regarding two things. I wonder if Director Wei can do me a favor?" Elder Mo asked


    leisurely as he waved his fan.


    "Elder Mo, you are a respected senior and important personality in the entertainment industry.


    Please tell me how I can help," Wei An smiled as he held onto a cup of tea.


    "Firstly, I want to make a guest appearance in your film. I will do it for free, but you need to keep my


    identity a secret and not let anyone know," Elder Mo squinted his eyes.


    The director was slightly surprised...


    "It''s my honor to have you make a guest appearance. But, your body..."


    "You don''t need to worry about it," Elder Mo waved his hand.


    "What about your second request?"


    "The second thing I want you to do, is to make things difficult for Tangning at tomorrow''s audition,"


    Elder Mo said straightforwardly.


    "Isn''t Tangning your granddaughter-inw?"


    "I haven''t acknowledged her yet," Elder Mo scoffed. "I still need to see if she has enough courage


    and intelligence to be with my grandson. So tomorrow, you simply need to tell her the auditions


    have been postponed..."


    "Are you deliberately making herte?" Wei Anughed at Elder Mo''s request. Actually, his actions


    were quite reasonable. Elder Mo''s biggest passion in life was acting; since his granddaughter-inw


    wanted to change from a model to an actress, he of course needed to test her out.


    "This is nothing. I''m sure you''re well aware of how this industry works. No matter how good of an


    actor one is, they should always be wary of being reced, dismissed or even schemed against. If


    she can''t even handle this..."


    "...then my grandson''s eyes..."


    "...must be worse than mine."


    The director thought about the request for a moment. In reality, he had watched Tangning''s acting


    before and did not find any ws to point out. In fact, she was a very serious actor. However, she


    had no experience with action scenes.


    So, he was slightly leaning towards picking Gu Heng, who was professionally trained in martial arts.


    He was a perfectionist. So, he hoped that the actress he eventually went with, would be skilled in all


    aspects.


    Since Elder Mo made this request, he decided to go along with it and use it as an excuse to


    eliminate Tangning. Perhaps using Gu Heng would be the safer bet anyway.


    "OK, no problems. Since it''s a request from Elder Mo, I will do my best to satisfy it," Wei An agreed


    swiftly.


    "Be serious, don''t worry about Mo Ting. You have me backing you..."


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    "I don''t think President Mo will hold me ountable over something so little," Wei Anughed


    leisurely.


    Elder Mo had a deep look in his eyes but he did not say another word.


    This man obviously did not know his grandson well enough...Towards the entertainment industry,


    Mo Ting was ruthless and resolute, but when it came to love...he inherited the Mo Family gics:


    hepletely doted his wife.


    Would he really not hold him ountable?


    Did he not see how Mo Ting released the trailer of ''W.H.'' as soon as someone made a few


    comints about his wife? From what Elder Tang concluded, Mo Ting''s every move was for the


    sake of Tangning and to help his wifey out a path...


    "Rascal! You''re certainly skilled at using business for personal gain. Let''s see how your wife handles


    the drama tomorrow," Elder Mo scoffed as he waved his fan.


    Humming an old Opera tune, he turned around and left Wei An''s room.


    ...


    1pm. Song Yanshu received a phone call from the production crew of ''The Lost Rtive'' notifying


    them that the auditions had been moved to 3pm the next day; one hour after the original scheduled


    time.


    "Did you find out why they moved it one hour back?" Tangning questioned.


    "Apparently the director has something on at that time..."


    Tangning looked down at her script and nodded, "Pick me up at 2pm tomorrow then."


    "OK. In that case, I''m going to go home now Ning Jie," Song Yanshu bowed slightly as she closed


    up Tangning''s schedule.


    Although Tangning nodded her head, her cautious attitude, especially after the mistake with her


    watch endorsement, told her this was a sign that the people-in-charge had changed their minds


    about something.


    So, she immediately gave Long Jie a phone call and asked her to check with her sources. After all,


    there were a few dozen candidates for the auditions tomorrow.


    "Don''t worry, I''ll give you a response early tomorrow. Tangning, you''ve be more and more


    cautious," Long Jie couldn''t help but point out.


    "Because I''ve been tricked too many times," Tangning replied.


    Long Jie nodded her head in understanding. ''The Lost Rtive'' was an open resource, so it wasn''t


    surprising for her toe across scheming frompetitors. But, Tangning would never allow


    herself to be defeated before even making an appearance. She was never going to scheme against


    others, but there was no way she wouldn''t be cautious about it.


    "Understood. As soon as I get information, I''ll notify you," Long Jie said before hanging up the


    phone.


    Tangning put down her phone and looked at the script beside her. Since Mo Ting had chosen it for


    her, she was definitely going to get the role...
