Gu Li walked over, “Young Master Mo, I have a favor to ask of you.”
Seeing her serious face, Mo Shiting raised his eyebrows, signaling her to continue.
The girl swallowed and sat down, saying, “I’m going to participate in ‘Thousands of Gorgeous Female Stars’ tomorrow. This may violate the rules of the Mo family, but I asked my grandfather, and he said it’s up to you to punish me. I hope you’ll agree to not penalize me.”
Mo Shiting looked at her with an intense gaze, making a certain decision spontaneously: “You first answer my question.”
“Okay!”
Gu Li nodded without hesitation, “You ask.”
“Why did you plan our marriage?”
Originally, he didn’t care about her motives for approaching him. After all, they would soon divorce and wouldn’t intersect in the future. She couldn’t cause him much harm. However, he didn’t know when this question started to matter to him…
Facing the man’s question, Gu Li’s eyes flickered.
Whether it was her purpose in getting married or the fact she is Tang Tang, she couldn’t tell the truth, but she knew she couldn’t fool him. So, with a troubled face, she said, “This is my privacy, I can’t tell you. But…”
At this point, Gu Li gave him a sincere, deep look, “I mean you no harm.”
“Humph!”
Mo Shiting was unimpressed.
Gu Li had no choice but to continue bravely, “If that doesn’t work, let’s go our separate ways and never see each other again, okay? But, I still ask you to agree to divorce after a year.”
Unanticipatedly, not only did she refuse to tell the truth, but she proposed such a ridiculous suggestion. Mo Shiting’s handsome face darkened instantly: “Impossible!”
“Please.”
The girl finished speaking, then leaned in to grab his hand.
Mo Shiting pried her fingers off one by one, “Do you think I, Mo Shiting, am a tool you can wield when you want? Having a wife like you, even one day is too much!”
With that, he abruptly stood up and strode quickly out.
Gu Li looked helpless, “You misunderstand me.”
She said, sounding very aggrieved.
Mo Shiting repressed his boiling anger, walked to the door, then suddenly turned around, “Still not willing to say it?.”
Gu Li lowered her head, “I…”
“Fine! Then let’s divorce. The day after tomorrow at ten o’clock, meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau.”
He gnashed his teeth and dropped this sentence, not giving her any room for discussion, and walked straight out the door.
Gu Li hurried to follow him, but his trace was already gone.
She massaged her throbbing temples, feeling worried.
Why was this man so persistent?
She really couldn’t tell him…
That night, Gu Li couldn’t sleep.
Early the next morning, Da Ha came to pick her up.
After getting in the car, seeing her listless, Da Ha asked with concern, “Boss, what happened? Didn’t you sleep well last night?”
Gu Li gave a yawn, and said tiredly, “Mmm. I’ll take a short nap, wake me up when we arrive.”
“Okay.”
Da Ha nodded.
Gu Li slept all the way. By the time they arrived at the TV station, she wasn’t feeling too bad.
Upon seeing each other again, the staff was much warmer than last time.
After all, last time Gu Li was just an ordinary person. But this time, she’s a guest designated by the investor; no one dared be negligent.
Director Yang took her to the recording area, asking as they walked, “Today, we will record the initial stage of the ranking. Do you know the process?”
“Yes, I think I got it.”
Gu Li nodded slightly.
In no time, they arrived at the recording area.
This was a studio that could accommodate thousands of people. The stage had been set up, and the staff was busy adjusting the equipment.
Director Yang introduced her to the area, then said, “There’s still two hours till the official recording. Let’s go, I’ll introduce you to the other four judges.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Gu Li smiled politely.
From the information she read last night, she knew that aside from her being a newbie, the other judges were all prominent figures in the entertainment industry –
Cheng Ying, the artist director of the GE Entertainment Company, which housed many A-list stars, award-winning film producer Jiang Cheng, music producer Xu Jin, and top-rated director Xue Huaimo.
Their experience was unmatched, and it seemed they were all proud. Seeing her so young, they were probably going to doubt her, right?
Gu Li guessed correctly. At this moment, in the guest lounge, the four judges were furious to hear that a young girl was going to sit amongst them as their peer..
