Chapter 735 He Doesn“t Need Any of This
Old Master Gu, who was intelligent beyond belief, knew that he had stepped on a bomb, and cleverly avoided the topic. “Mohan, hurry up and come over when you’re done. Niuniu already misses his Daddy.”
Without another word, Gu Mohan hung up the call and lifted his eyes to look at Yan Dong. “Prepare the car. We’re going to the Gu family residence,” he said.
“Yes, President.”
…
A long, luxurious car drove steadily on the streets. In the back seat, Gu Mohan was lounged in a casual manner, his long legs crossed elegantly. A script rested on his knees.
It was ‘The Concubine’.
Since it was nighttime, the bright lights of the city reflected against the car windows, illuminating his handsome features. Without lifting his eyes, he asked, “Where are we in dealing with Chen Tao?”
Yan Dong, who was driving, answered politely, “President, we’re kicked Chen Tao out of the Capital.”
“Hm. What about on Tang Mo’er’s side?”
“President, you can take a look at Weibo. The official channel for ‘The Concubine’ has revealed madam in the role of Shangguan Man’er, together with a short section of her dancing the Plumage Dance. It’s popularity has exploded all over the internet, and in the short span of five hours, has been re-posted and shared over five million times and liked over ten million times!”
Opening the laptop, Gu Mohan tapped a few keys to play the video on Tang Mo’er’s Plumage Dance.
In the video, Tang Mo’er was dancing lightly in Mononyl’s red dress, and with every beat of the drum, her slender waist twisted in astonishing angles, displaying a surprising degree of lithe and feminine flexibility. She twirled, skipped, and danced across the screen, her beauty incredibly striking and taking everyone’s breath away.
The comments were blowing up.
“Shangguan Man’er, my Mo’er is really making her comeback!”
“Mo’er actually appeared in ‘The Concubine’ as the only pretty one in the role of Shangguan Man’er, my gosh… My life is now complete!”
“The most beautiful woman in the world, dancing such a surprising Plumage Dance. Tang Mo’er has fulfilled all my expectations of Shangguan Man’er!”
“Beauty Tang truly is beautiful, the best ‘pretty face’ out there.”
“Just based on Beauty Tang’s allure alone, I’m going to re-watch this several times!”
Yan Dong who was in the driver’s seat said, “President, I have to say, madam really is pretty smart. There aren’t any roles other than Shangguan Man’er that would have made her popularity blow up this quickly.”
Gu Mohan gazed at the woman in the video. She really was unapologetically conspicuous. Already born with her natural beauty, yet she still wanted to show it off.
“Give Haining a call, and ask her to turn Shangguan Man’er into a mute in the script,” Gu Mohan instructed.
Yan Dong was stunned, but understood immediately. Shangguan Man’er already didn’t have many lines in ‘The Concubine’, so by turning her into a mute, President would be giving Mo’er more screen time.
“But President, to make her a mute is to put her acting skills to the test. If she can’t act well, the netizens would all gather to throw stones at her. Then she would really become nothing more than a pretty face.
Gu Mohan remained expressionless. “If she can’t act well, then she shouldn’t continue acting.”
He just wanted to go home to Niuniu!
“Yes, President,” Yan Dong replied.
At this instance, Gu Mohan’s long, thin fingers fell on on Tang Mo’er’s delicate ankles, and he saw the anklet.
He zoomed in on the anklet, a sharp glint in his deep, narrow eyes. “Where did the anklet come from?”
“President, I was about to mention this. The anklet on around Madame’s ankle had been extremely popular. Countless netizens want the same one, so all of them have been snatched up already. It’s not just any brand, and isn’t from DHA under the Lin Corporation. This anklet is pretty mysterious, and has stirred the curiosity of the netizens, all of them are begging Madam to reveal where she bought it from.”
Gu Mohan pressed his thin lips together, and raised his sharp brows, before he laughed softly and said, “It’s been three years since I last saw it. It’s pretty durable.”
…
Gu family residence.
The maid opened the door and Gu Mohan entered, striding in with his long legs. A small figure pounced on him, grabbing onto his sturdy calves. Little Munchkin called out sweetly, “Daddy, you’re here.”
When Gu Mohan looked down with his handsome face, he saw Little Munchkin hugging onto his leg tightly. Little Munchkin’s bright luminous eyes were guarded and he didn’t look at all happy.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Mohan reached out with his large palm and stroked Little Munchkin’s head.
Little Munchkin tried his best to crane his neck up to look at his father. Why was Daddy so tall? He wanted to be as tall as Daddy! “Daddy, can we go home now?”
Gu Mohan raised his sharp, elegant brows, and said, “We might have to stay for dinner.”
“But I’m not hungry.”
Gu Mohan stroked Little Munchkin’s soft, smooth face. “Tell Daddy, what happened? Did someone bully you?”
Little Munchkin shook his head, his big, dark eyes gazing somewhat pitifully at his father. “Daddy, I feel like Grandpa, Grandma and Great-grandfather all don’t like me.”
Reaching out his strong arms, Gu Mohan gathered Little Munchkin into his arms. “Daddy loves you.”
Little Munchkin immediately wrapped his arms around his neck, and smiled back adorably. “Niuniu loves Daddy too.”
Father and son bumped foreheads and smiled at each other.
At this moment, Huo Yanmei walked out from the kitchen. When she saw Gu Mohan carrying Niuniu in his arms, she frowned and said, ” Yelin, come down quickly. You’re already three, why do you still need your father to carry you? Your father knew how to walk from when he was one years old and no one carried him after that.”
As he carried Little Munchkin in his arms, Gu Mohan looked at Huo Yanmei with his deep narrow eyes and said simply, “Mom, which kid wouldn’t want to be hugged? It wasn’t that I didn’t want to be carried, but more that no one wanted to carry me.”
Huo Yanmei froze.
At this instance, Old Master Gu came in from the study with his walking stick. He laughed and said, “Mohan, your mom is just thinking about what’s best for Yelin. He’s your eldest son and will inherit your assets in the future. You shouldn’t allow him to be so spoilt.”
Gu Mohan’s lips curled up into a faint smile, and said apathetically,”As my son, he doesn’t need all of this. Let him be spoilt if he wants to be.”
Old Master Gu didn’t say another word, and only glanced satisfactorily at Gu Mohan. In these three years, he had mustered up many qualities. Power, wealth, status and unbelievable resolve. He was already bringing the Gu Family to the peak of their society.
The door to the residence opened and someone walked in.
Old Master Gu immediately led the introductions. “Mohan, I’ve invited a guest for dinner today. You should know her, this is Dong Baishou, the largest shareholder of Cathay Entertainment.”
Baishou walked in, took a look at Old Master Gu, then switched her gaze over to Gu Mohan. “Old Master Gu, President.”
Baishou bowed at Gu Mohan’s curt nod.
Gu Mohan was expressionless. At this moment, a soft, delicate figure entered his line of sight. Bai Feifei had entered.
Today, Bai Feifei was dressed in a pink dress, which was an eye-catching peach color. She lifted her eyes and when she saw Gu Mohan in the living room, her eyes flickered in fear. “Hello Old Master Gu, President Gu,” she greeted.
Not able to help herself, Bai Feifei snuck another peek at the charismatic man. Was this Cathay Entertainment’s big boss, Gu Mohan of the C.T Corporation?
