The Regent's Little Wife

Chapter 471 Lu Jingshen asks Yan Mo to give up the role of female No. 1

The two of them thought to themselves that they had heard that Yan Mo had changed a lot recently, but they never expected that her taste had also changed drastically. You know, Yan Mo used to not touch spicy food or meat dishes, but now she can enjoy food like this, which is really surprising.

In fact, this dinner tonight was a conspiracy they had carefully planned. Yan Mo had been away from home for two years, and when she returned this time, they wanted to deliberately make things difficult for her during dinner. So they specially ordered a table full of dishes that Yan Mo would never touch in the past. If Yan Mo refused to eat, it would be disrespectful to Lu Jingshen's stepmother, and then they could take the opportunity to make trouble for her.

However, they don't know that Yan Mo is no longer the same as she was before. Although Yan Mo knew how to resist in the past, she didn't know how to deal with difficulties in the right and effective way. But now, she has learned to protect herself with wisdom and courage.

After the meal, Nan Wanyue still clung to Lu Jingshen like taffy, and Lu Jingshen did not have any intention of shirking his responsibility and stayed by Nan Wanyue's side all the time.

Yan Mo really didn't want to continue to witness the scene in front of her, so she decisively turned around and returned to the bedroom. Nan Wanyue saw that Yan Mo didn't come to make trouble, and felt bored. After pestering Lu Jingshen for a while, she returned to the room on the grounds that she was too tired from the flight.

At this time, Lu Jingshen also returned to his room, but found Yan Mo concentrating on playing games. She ignored Lu Jingshen's entry, and Lu Jingshen also said nothing and went straight to the bathroom to take a bath.

When he came out of the bathroom, Yan Mo was still concentrating on playing the game. Lu Jingshen couldn't help but frown and moved to sit next to Yan Mo. However, Yan Mo was fully immersed in the game at this time and did not react at all.

Finally, Lu Jingshen couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Yan Mo...it's time to rest. Don't you have an announcement and an advertising endorsement tomorrow? Go to bed early."

"You take a rest first. I'll rest after I finish this game." There was no expression on Yan Mo's face.

"Yan Mo... I know you are in a bad mood. I have explained to you before that Yue'er is my sister, and the relationship between us is purely brother and sister. I hope you don't misunderstand and don't let it affect your work." Lu Jingshen tried to persuade Yan Mo, but Yan Mo didn't seem to appreciate it.

Yan Mo stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Lu Jingshen, with a hint of disappointment and helplessness in her eyes. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "I didn't misunderstand your relationship. I also know that she is your sister. But seeing you two so close, I still feel uncomfortable. Maybe I am too sensitive." After that, she turned her eyes back to the screen and continued the unfinished game.

Lu Jingshen looked at Yan Mo silently, feeling guilty. He realized that he didn't care enough about Yan Mo and didn't consider her feelings. He sighed softly, stood up, walked behind Yan Mo, hugged her shoulders, and said gently: "I'm sorry, I ignored your feelings. I will pay attention in the future and won't let this happen again. Now, put down the game and have a good rest, okay?"

Yan Mo pondered silently in her heart, and then she realized that this was the intention behind this man! He had flirted with her sister before, but now he pretended to be affectionate in front of her. What tricks was he playing?

"Lu Jingshen, don't you think you're getting a little too close to her?" Yan Mo slammed the table and asked expressionlessly.

Lu Jingshen was embarrassed and explained repeatedly: "Yan Mo, I really don't know how to tell you. I treat Yueyue as my own sister. Their family has been very kind to us, and I have always been grateful. So in many things, I do take care of them. But the relationship between Yueyue and I is only brother and sister, and it is definitely not the kind of relationship you imagine."

However, the doubts in Yan Mo's heart were like turbulent waves, unable to be calmed. Why did this man take so much trouble to explain all this today? He usually avoided talking about these issues, but today he took so much pains. What on earth was he planning?

At this moment, Lu Jingshen suddenly hugged Yan Mo tightly and said in a deep voice: "I know you have doubts in your heart, but I promise that I will treat you wholeheartedly in the future, please believe me."

The man continued, "Mo'er... didn't you take on a new script recently? It's a role of a queen. But after careful consideration from many aspects, we feel that you may not be suitable for this role."

Yan Mo finally understood why Lu Jingshen was so attentive to her all of a sudden - it was because of the leading female role in the new script she had finally gotten! Now, she had already signed the contract, but now they wanted to go back on their word. However, after all, there was a contract here, and if they breached the contract now, they would have to bear the liability for liquidated damages.

So, they made a plan and found this so-called Lu Jingshen to act as a lobbyist, trying to make him withdraw voluntarily. They really calculated everything!

"So, who do you want to play this role?" Yan Mo couldn't help but ask.

"It's Wei Ruxue. Everyone thinks that only Wei Ruxue can play this role. But don't worry, we don't intend to exclude you from the show. You still have the opportunity to play other roles. For example, there is a concubine role in the play that has not yet been decided. If you are willing, you can finalize the role today."

Yan Mo raised her eyes slightly, her sight slowly fell on the man in front of her, and she secretly sighed in her heart: You know, this role was carefully selected from 500 actresses, and she had gone through untold hardships to get it. Unexpectedly, this man asked her to give up the role casually, and said it so naturally!

"But the problem is that this role of the imperial concubine is the number one villain in the play. Do you really think I am suitable for such a villain role? After all, I have always played positive roles with awe-inspiring justice." Yan Mo knew that it was not appropriate to anger the person in front of her at this moment. After all, the purpose of coming here was not to cause trouble, but to find a way to conquer the other party. However, deep in her heart, she still couldn't help feeling wronged and unwilling.

"Mo'er... Actually, even if you insist on not giving up this role, the producer will probably talk to you. Although the imperial concubine is only the second female lead, she is one of the biggest villains in the whole play. But don't worry, this is just acting, and although you are the second female lead, your pay is exactly the same as that of the first female lead, so..." The man seemed to want to continue persuading her.

"That's enough... No need to say more, I understand. Since you have made a decision, I will withdraw." Yan Mo interrupted the man, with a hint of helplessness and compromise in her tone. She knew that it was useless to say more, and instead of arguing endlessly, it would be better to retreat and find another way.

After hearing what Yan Mo said, the man showed an ecstatic expression on his face, as if he had obtained a treasure he had always dreamed of. He hugged Yan Mo tightly with excitement and said softly: "Mo'er, you are so sensible!"

However, Yan Mo closed her eyes at this moment, thinking secretly in her heart. She was very surprised by Wei Ruxue's method. She had already finalized the candidate for the heroine, but Wei Ruxue was able to successfully take away this opportunity again. Obviously, they were destined to become enemies. Thinking back to the things she had encountered during this period, Yan Mo couldn't help but sigh that she had bad luck.
