Chapter 517: One Look
“What’s wrong?” Nangong Lengyu looked at him. “You don’t look too good. Are you cold? Why don’t we go back?”
Upon seeing the confused look on her face, Chen Mo felt relieved when he was sure she had not seen Huo Ci. He picked up a piece of cotton candy and put it in his mouth before leaning lazily against the seat. “I’ll swim with you. I said I’d have fun with you for two days.”
Huo Ci had come over. He had heard from James that the brat, Ah Yan, had let him stay in his villa. He did not know how many days he would be staying there. If he did not leave after having fun for half a month, would he continue filming?
“It’s an honor to have a workaholic like you abandon his job and have fun with me.” Nangong Lengyu smiled. Her slightly-narrowed eyes were as vast and dazzling as the Milky Way. She suddenly approached him. “Speak! What are you afraid of?”
Chen Mo pretended to be calm and asked her repeatedly, “Why should I be afraid? Why should I be afraid?”
“Is it because he’s here?” Nangong Lengyu’s eyes turned cold. “If I’m not afraid of him, why are you afraid of him?”
Chen Mo argued stubbornly. “Who said I’m afraid of him?”
How could Nangong Lengyu not know what he was thinking? As she fed him cotton candy, she said casually, “If you’re not afraid of him, why did you ignore your work and not go to the filming site?”
Her younger brother was a workaholic, especially during filming. Even if the sky collapsed, he would not leave the filming site. Huo Ci was indeed capable. Look at how much he had scared the child.
Chen Mo, who had been exposed, asked carefully, “Sister, did you see that?”
“You’re talking about Huo Ci!” Nangong Lengyu nodded and pointed in the direction of the shore. Under the lights of thousands of houses, he was standing in the sea of people and watching a light show.
Chen Mo looked in the direction she was pointing at. There were too many people, and he could only recognize Huo Ci based on his temperament and height. He gave her a secret look with a complicated expression in his eyes. It had been so many years, so how could she have recognized him among so many people?
“By the way, I want to see Ling Sheng. When will you arrange for us to meet? I’ll apply for a day off for her and have her show me around!” It had been a long time since Nangong Lengyu had felt the urge to see someone.
She had fallen in love with her the moment she had seen her photo and confirmed that it was her.
After looking through her photos and watching her variety show, she now liked her even more. The young lady was really interesting. She would definitely be compatible with her personality, so she would be able to have fun with her.
“I’ll let you see her now.” Chen Mo video called his assistant and said, “Has Ling Sheng finished filming? Let her talk to me.”
The junior assistant called Ling Sheng over. Ling Sheng had yet to remove her makeup, so her pure, pretty, lady-like appearance was very eye-catching. She took the phone and smiled at the camera. “Director Chen, what can I do for you?”
Chen Mo did not speak. He did not know where the camera was facing. There was water behind them and colorful lights. He could not see anyone, so he pointed Ling Sheng at Nangong Lengyu.
“Sheng…” Nangong Lengyu’s eyes lit up. She had yet to finish shouting Sheng Sheng’s name.
Chen Mo hung up the video call immediately and disconnected it. The screen froze on Ling Sheng’s smiling face for two seconds before the image disappeared.
Nangong Lengyu had just seen him hang up. She pointed at him angrily. “Why did you do that?”
Chen Mo smiled. “Didn’t you say you wanted to meet her? I’ve already let you meet her. During filming, all my actors have to listen to my arrangements. I definitely won’t allow her to go out and have fun!”
