Chapter 457: She Hated Being Threatened
To speed up the process of finding the truth, Lu Che pretended to have fallen for the culprit''s trick
and went to look for the doctor.
"Doctor Lin, the Madam has calmed down and agreed to take on the treatment you have suggested.
So, President Mo has instructed me toe make arrangements with you."
"OK. The tumor needs to be removed as soon as possible, so it is important for us to immediately
book her in for an operation," the doctor said in a professional manner. In reality, Lu Che could
barely maintain his basic manners, because deep inside, he wanted so badly to strangle the
immoral doctor to death.
As a doctor, not only did she not fulfill her duty to save the dying and heal the injured, she
completely ignored the lives of others. So, in Lu Che''s eyes, she was not worthy of being human.
Lu Che was so tempted to tear off the doctor''s mask. But, remembering that the truth had not been
found yet, he continued to endure.
"I''ve looked at my schedule. Is it OK if we do the operation in 3 days time?"
"Yes, that''s fine," Lu Che nodded as he smiled. "I''m sure you know how much President Mo cares
about the Madam. Her body has always been a high priority to him. So, as a subordinate, I wouldn''t
dare to dy the treatment."
"Of course."
"But, I would like to ask...how did the Madam''s confidential information get leaked? It seems you
still have not provided Hai Rui with an answer to this matter. I hope next time we meet, you will be
able to give us a satisfactory exnation," Lu Che deliberately suppressed the doctor''s arrogance
by chasing her for an exnation.
The doctor''s expression changed. She never expected, under Lu Che''s polite exterior, he could be
so aggressive.
"Don''t worry, the hospital is currently investigating this matter. Our initial suspicion is that the
disgusting paparazzi did something," the doctor smiled.
Lu Che scoffed inside, but did not make a sound as he watched the doctor tantly lie to his face.
However, he had long be ustomed to seeing people like this.
Afterwards, Lu Che left. But, he nted many spies in the hospital. It seemed, it wouldn''t take long
before the truth would be uncovered.
As soon as Lu Che left, the doctor quickly pulled out her phone and gave a call to an unlisted
number, "They''ve taken the bait and everything is progressing smoothly. But, I need to meet with
you. This matter is too risky, I can''t handle it on my own."
As a doctor, she wasn''t so blinded by money that she couldn''t determine the seriousness of the
matter.
Using a doctor to injure someone had always been easy to uncover. Especially when the almighty
CEO of Hai Rui, Mo Ting, was being offended.
So, the doctor needed to make sure that the person she was working with was sincere.
"How can I meet with you?"
"If you refuse to meet, then go look for someone else. Let''s see if others are willing to take the risk
over a bit of money."
On the other side of the phone, Tang Xuan was furious. They had already agreed on the terms at
the beginning that they weren''t going to meet, yet the doctor suddenly changed her mind. However,
she couldn''t refuse... They were already on the same boat; did she still have the choice to find
someone else?
Although she hated being threatened, she still ended up agreeing, "Tomorrow afternoon, let''s meet
at a cafe near the hospital."
However, she never expected that this one simple move would end up cing her into the palm of
Mo Ting''s hands, giving himplete control over her life and death.
"What happened?" Mother Zhong asked as she noticed a change in her daughter-inw''s
expression.
"The doctor has requested to meet in person and receive cash before agreeing to work with us. She
said the risk is too high," Tang Xuan exined to Mother Zhong.
"That''s actually quite reasonable. Let''s start making preparations then," Mother Zhong nodded.
"Also, go get changed into the inest clothes you own. It''s time to go see your grandfather."
"Yes, mom..."
It appeared, some battles were extinguished like a fire, only to erupt again like a volcano.
...
After resting for two days, Tangning decided to return on set.
However, as she arrived, the production crew all looked at her in sympathy and respect.
Even under her current condition, she still insisted to appear on set. If it was someone else, they
would have definitely taken more time off.
In reality, Tangning''s body was indeed a little ufortable...
But, it wasn''t because she was sick. It was actually because she was pregnant.
On her return to the set, it was hard for the production crew not to notice Mo Ting following by her
side. He did not say much. He just quietly assisted her with simple things.
"Ning Jie, are you truly fine?" the props assistant asked. "If you''re not feeling well, you should get a
few more days rest. After all, we can always film other scenes first."

"Thank you for your concern, but it''s not necessary. I''mpletely fine," Tangning replied with a
smile.
"Don''t mind the rumors that are going around. Everyone is supporting you. I hope you understand
that the entire crew acknowledges you. Whether it''s your acting or your personality, you are
amazing," the props assistant raised a thumb.
Mo Ting cleared his throat, gesturing to the man that he had said enough. Meanwhile, Tangning
looked at him helplessly.
Was he jealous at something so simple? The man was simply showing his concern.
Taka also rushed out to see Tangning after finding out that she''d be returning on set. Of course,
after his encounter with Mo Ting, all he had left for Tangning was admiration and respect. This was
one of the positive features of foreigners, they were dedicated to their work and weren''t petty. This
was also the reason why Tangning managed to tolerate Taka; he was simply childish, but he wasn''t
a bad person.
He was, after all, picked by Mo Ting...
How could he be bad?
"Your news is all over the ce. It seems you are quite popr."
"Of course, I''ve always been a hot topic of discussion," Tangning responded in fluent English.
Taka was intimidated by Mo Ting''s gaze, so he scratched his head in a nervous and awkward
manner, "Anyway, if you need anything from me, just let me know."
Before Tangning could respond, Taka had already disappeared from sight...
Tangning couldn''t help butugh. Seeing herugh, Mo Ting also smiled.
"Sit here for a moment, I''m going to go speak to Director Wei about your uing scenes," Mo
Ting pointed to a chair.
However, Tangning stopped him and shook her head, "I know better than anyone what my
uing scenes are..."
"Ting, if you acknowledge me as a professional actress, then leave it with me. I know my limits and
won''t do anything to make you worry. Trust me, OK?"
"If you protect me like this, the entire crew will feel nervous. I don''t want to see that happen."
"If you are here to apany me, then please respect my decisions, OK?"
Stripping back his identity as the CEO of Hai Rui, Mo Ting was perhaps more capable than anyone
couldpare. But, in front of Tangning, he was just a normal husband who wanted to protect his
wife and child.
"I''m just worried..."
