Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion Chapter 263 – Misunderstanding

Chapter 263: Misunderstanding

Tan Mo raised her head to look at the others with an innocent expression, seeming to ask, am I wrong?

Director Hou turned to look at Tan Jinqi as if he was questioning the young man.

Is your sister always this playful? Where’s the cute and easily bullied little girl that you’re always talking about?

Tan Mo’s words were basically like a knife aimed at Yu Yixian’s throat that rendered the actress speechless. She could only stare at Tan Mo with flames in her eyes.

It was clear that Tan Mo was planning to take it to the next level instead of playing along with her.

“Director Liu, do you see? It’s not that I don’t respect you, but this little brat is just rude,” Yu Yixian complained.

“Why are you even arguing with a child? Aren’t you an adult?” Director Liu sighed and almost couldn’t hold himself back from calling the actress a child too because of the way she was acting.

“W…what do you mean?” Yu Yixian couldn’t believe what she had just heard.

“You want her to remove her makeup? Well, that’s not going to happen.” Director Liu scoffed at her.

“Auntie, why do you keep asking me to remove my makeup?” Tan Mo asked. “Is it because my makeup was done by Mr. Liu Jingping? Are you blaming me because he refused to help you instead of me?”

Yu Yixian’s eyes got wide. The girl had guessed the real reason before the actress could even spill the truth.

People began to chatter all around them, with one of them saying, “Isn’t that too much? Why is she arguing with a child over a makeup artist?”

Since there were a lot of people around, Yu Yixian didn’t know who had said that.

There were a lot of other actresses present too who had also gotten rejected by Liu Jingping.

They all laughed the moment Tan Mo made the comment about the reason Yu Yixian was so angry.

“Liu Jingping refused my offer too, and I haven’t said anything. Who the heck does she think she is?”

“He probably chose this young lady because he didn’t want to offend any of us. Yu Yixian has really gone over the line this time.”

Never did Yu Yixian expect that Tan Mo would be such a scheming person.

Director Liu could only let out a sigh after seeing Tan Mo give the final blow to the actress.

“It took this young lady a lot of time to get that makeup done, and there’s no way she’s removing it. And why does she even have to apologize? Did she do anything wrong?” Director Liu said. “If you really want the organizer to choose between you and her, then I’d prefer she stays instead of you.”

The moment Director Liu made that statement everyone couldn’t help but gasp, wondering who Tan Mo really was for the director to protect her to this extent.

Never in a million years would Director Liu abandon Tan Mo, but what he said to the manager next shocked the crowd even more.

“I’m going to say this first. If the organizer decides to side with Ms. Yu here, then I’ll leave. The decision is up to you guys.”

“Liu, I see you are still as arrogant as ever, huh?” Director Hou laughed and turned to the manager. “I’ll apologize in his stead for giving you such a hard time.”

The manager secretly let out a sigh of relief when he heard that. He thought he was really going to have to choose between Director Liu and Yu Yixian and was thankful to Director Hou for his help.

But what Director Hou said next shattered his hope.

“Count me in then. I’ll side with Liu. Either you choose Ms. Yu here or us. I’m sure this will make it easier for you, right?”

Yu Yixian could only stare at the two directors dumbfoundedly, unable to believe that they would go to such lengths to help Tan Mo.

They were known in the industry for being nice to people and would rarely butt into other people’s business. Even if they did, they did it in a very subtle way.

That was the reason why Yu Yixian thought she could still make Tan Mo apologize and change her makeup, thinking that the directors would prefer to end things peacefully.

It was basically impossible for her to think that they would actually protect Tan Mo to the end. For a split second, she even thought she was dreaming.

Am I dreaming? Am I still in my room? This is just a dream, right?

The actress secretly pinched her leg and could feel the pain. She wasn’t dreaming.

That was when Yu Yixian finally turned to look at Tan Mo and wondered who the young lady really was.

She was starting to feel worried.

Never could she ever have predicted that two of the best directors working today would stand by Tan Mo’s side. She had completely underestimated the little girl.

“O…of course,” the manager laughed awkwardly, knowing that it was already impossible to make Tan Mo apologize and redo her makeup.

He understood that Yu Yixian now needed a way to get out of the situation and quickly said, “Ms. Yu, it’s your turn to walk the red carpet.”

“What?” Yu Yixian asked with a stupid expression on her face. She still hadn’t recovered from the shock, which was not like her.

What had just happened had turned her mind upside down, and she couldn’t think straight.

Didn’t you say my turn was at the end?

Most famous celebrities with a lot of fans worldwide would usually enter the venue at the end. The reason for that was so that people could keep their focus on the red carpet event until it ended. By doing so, the fans and the reporters would all wait until the event ended.

Ms. Liu was the first one to understand the manager’s meaning and quickly whispered into Yu Yixian’s ear.

Only then, did Yu Yixian realize that the manager was trying to help her and said, “Oh, right! I’ll go get prepared right away.”

She then quickly turned and left the scene.

The others couldn’t help but laugh at how awkward her reaction had been.

The manager then quickly pulled one of the staff off to the side and said, “Hurry up and inform the host of the red carpet event that Yu Yixian’s schedule has been pushed forward. Make sure they don’t announce the wrong name.”

The staff nodded and left right away.

After making sure everything had been settled, the manager finally apologized to Tan Mo, “We are really sorry for everything. Are you all right?”

“This industry sure is scary,” Tan Mo said with a pale expression.

It definitely wasn’t a place where an honest person like her would stay.

The little girl then slowly turned to look at Director Liu as if she was telling him that she didn’t want to work in such a scary industry any longer.

The director immediately recalled what Professor Zhao had warned him about when he went to visit. The professor told him that Tan Mo was very lazy, that if there was a chance for her to laze around, she would take it.

If Professor Zhao hadn’t told Director Liu that, the latter would’ve believed that Tan Mo was really scared.

“Come on, with Director Hou and me here, no one would ever dare to bully you.” Director Liu laughed like a sly wolf.

Even if she hadn’t been protected by them, she was still the only daughter of the Tan family and the precious niece of Wei Zhiqian. No one in the world would ever dare to mess with her if they knew that.

“Liu’s right. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” Director Hou laughed as well. “Only other people will suffer if you join this industry.”

It was Tan Mo’s turn to be speechless.

Why do I feel like people misunderstand me all the time? What the h*ll is happening?

“Little girl, didn’t you promise that you’d write my next script? Don’t you dare try to run away.” Director Liu smiled.

Director Hou took a chance and said, “Don’t forget that I helped you just now too, okay?”
