The media were in a frenzy. What does Mo Ting mean by this? Does he have the intention to sign Tangning? Is this some kind of joke?
Whatever the explanation, the reporters no longer dared to latch on to Tangning. Instead, they shifted all blame to Tianyi Entertainment.
Like this, Tianyi Entertainment's troubles began and Mo Yurou's assistant had unintentionally been the one that started it. "If you can't even handle such a small matter, what else can you do? Let's wait and see how President Han will punish you!"
Tangning was unfazed, her expression was one of unexpected calmness. She changed her clothes and casually left the scene. Just as she stepped out of the side door, she spotted Mo Ting's sports car parked outside.
"Get in."
Tangning obediently boarded the car. She was exceptionally grateful for what Mo Ting had done, "Thank you for today."
Mo Ting's eyes slightly twitched as he let out a smirk, "Did you think I would allow someone to bully my newly wedded wife in front of everyone?"
"Actually, I'm not worthy of your help. I intentionally allowed everyone to figure out who I really was," Tangning explained apologetically.
Mo Ting looked straight into the eyes of the person sitting across from him, "I know."
"It's just that, if you couldn't have thought of a better way to scheme against someone, you should have asked me. Sacrificing yourself to get back at someone, is a bit of a stupid move, don't you think?"
Tangning: "..."
"Where should I drop you off?"
"Your home. Aren't we a married couple now?" Tangning replied undoubtedly. Since she had already made the decision, she was not going to take it back, nor regret.
"Are you sure? Not only are we married...but tonight is also our wedding night!"
Tangning blushed, but nodded in certainty, "I've already prepared myself and I am very thankful that you did not reveal our relationship. However, from now on, I insist you remain neutral. I want to rely on myself to retrieve what is rightfully mine."
Mo Ting did not insist. After all, it was rare to see a woman that did not use him as a stepping stone to benefit themselves. He decided to sit back and watch Tangning show off her skills.
The couple set off. Not long after, Tangning received a phone call from her manager, Long Jie, "Tangning, I have already found evidence of Mo Yurou's pregnancy. What do you want me to do with it? Also, the scene you caused at the jewelry show today has gone viral. People are condemning you all over the internet. What do you plan to do?"
"Long Jie, are you willing to stay by my side?"
"Why are you asking such nonsense?" Long Jie mumbled, "Did you expect me to continue following that cheating couple?"
"Then release the statement I asked you to prepare earlier. But be warned, by doing this, you will be going up against Tianyi Entertainment!"
"I'm not afraid!" Long Jie exclaimed excitedly. "We should have done this sooner. I will go prepare the evidence now and release it before Han Yufan has the chance to respond."
Tangning hung up and the car returned to its original peacefulness. Deep down, Tangning was actually quite nervous. What did Mo Ting think of her...
"I..."
"No need to explain. Your conversation just now, I heard it all. However, I have one question…have you always been this honest?" the car had stopped at a red light and Mo Ting took this opportunity to grab hold of Tangning's jaw, examining her with his eagle-like gaze.
"I am only honest in front of you and I intend for it to stay this way…" - Tangning revealed her loyalty - "…because I am afraid you may misunderstand and think badly of me."
Mo Ting was surprised for a moment, before he continued speaking, "If I were you, I would be even more extreme!"
Mo Ting must have guessed by now what was going on between Tangning, Mo Yurou and Han Yufan. Because of his reaction, Tangning developed an appreciation for her new husband. She vowed to herself, no matter what was to happen she was going to remember this day and the promises she made to Mo Ting forever.
…
Meanwhile, Han Yufan was in disbelief as he received news of Tangning’s exposure on stage. Not only that, at that moment, he also received a phone call from hf, notifying him of their intention to take Tianyi Entertainment to court for breaching their contract. In an instant, Tianyi Entertainment had gotten themselves into a heap of trouble while rumors were spreading all over the internet like wildfire.
Mo Yurou was focused on the recording of Tangning’s performance on stage as she pulled Han Yufan towards her, "Look, Tangning wanted to be recognized. She knew the biggest difference between her and I are our legs. She did it on purpose!"
"Yurou, Tangning isn’t like that. It’s not like it’s the first time she’s substituted for you," deep down Han Yufan still trusted Tangning.
"So what you’re saying is that you trust Tangning more? Don’t be stupid Yufan! Now this incident has happened, someone has to take the blame. Do you really want to lose this contract? Do you want to tell everyone that you were the one that asked Tangning to substitute me? If that’s the case, then we are doomed!"
"What are you suggesting?"
"Since you and Tangning are getting married soon, she will no longer be a part of the industry. For the sake of Tianyi Entertainment, you need to make an announcement. You need to tell everyone that you were unaware of this entire incident and everything was just Tangning’s attempt at creating hype; that’s why she went behind our backs and pretended to be me." Mo Yurou was completely throwing the blame onto Tangning.
"I guess, under these circumstances, that is all we can do" Han Yufan nodded in agreement. However, just as he was trying to contact the head of PR, he received a call from his assistant.
"Quick, President Han, check the entertainment news headlines! Tangning’s manager has just revealed some big news!"
Han Yufan quickly jumped online to search the headlines. To his disbelief, Tangning’s manager was already a step ahead of them. She revealed that Han Yufan had forced Tangning to substitute Mo Yurou multiple times in the past with comparison pictures of the two models as proof. She also complained that small companies tend to bully people and revealed that Tangning had been bullied for many years.
In anger, Han Yufan quickly contacted Tangning’s manager.
"Long Jie, are you crazy?"
On the other side of the phone, Long Jie’s laughter resounded. Calmly she responded, "I’ve wanted to leave this lousy company of yours for a long time."
"Yufan, this is definitely Tangning’s doing. Quick, let’s cover it up by posting news of her creating hype!"
Without hesitation, Han Yufan immediately contacted his connections in the media and got Long Jie’s news taken down. He quickly replaced it with the news he had prepared earlier of Tangning’s attempts at creating hype.
In an instant, ‘Tangning’ and ‘Tianyi Entertainment’ became the most searched terms online with mixed responses.
No one was aware of the relationship between Tangning and Mo Ting. So, compared to Tangning, no one was brave enough to offend Han Yufan.
Tangning definitely received the shorter end of the stick, attracting an unbelievable amount of insults online.
Just as everyone thought the tables had turned, the term ‘Tangning substitute’ suddenly jumped to the top of search rankings. Search results all led to the news Long Jie had released earlier – revealing that Tangning was the real victim…
Of course, Long Jie’s story had got out first and the netizens had already made their decision. On top of everything, the fact that Tangning had substituted Mo Yurou so many times without causing any trouble and was continually being used became the hot topic online. The online community all agreed Tangning was indeed the victim.
In disbelief, Han Yufan picked up his phone and contacted his PR, ordering them to use more money to take down Tangning’s news.
Meanwhile, Mo Ting was on the phone with the main news sources, "If the news of Tangning disappears from search rankings, then be prepared for your companies to close down."
So cute! They only just got married and Mo Ting is already so protective of his wife...
This novel is published in serial form. The release schedule is 2 chapters a day, 1 at 9am and 1 at 2pm (server time +8).
The media couldn't offend Hai Rui, even though they didn’t understand why Hai Rui was helping Tangning.
Even Long Jie didn’t understand why their plan had run so smoothly. She had originally expected it to take a few days, "Tangning, tell me, are you being supported by another company?"
"No," Tangning replied as she glanced at the man beside her. "However, there is indeed a person that has been assisting me behind the scenes. But, I can’t reveal who it is yet."
"Hahaha…that’s ok. We will talk about it later. Just the thought of Han Yufan’s distraught face is enough to satisfy me!" Long Jie assumed Tangning had help from her family.
She had no idea that Tangning had, in fact, suddenly become the wife of the King of Entertainment: Mo Ting.
"Are you trying to use this opportunity to leave Tianyi?" Mo Ting asked as he elegantly sliced the steak in front of him.
"No, I would be letting them off too easy if I was to leave so simply. I am going to tear them down from their perch," Tangning explained. "Plus, I have already decided to return to the modeling industry. Unfortunately, my popularity isn't as great as before; which is why Tianyi may come of use."
"You are like this right now because you are angry. What if one day you no longer hate..."
"What I have decided on, I will not regret, let alone turn back," Tangning told Mo Ting in certainty. When in love, she could love with all her heart. When in hate, she could tear the other person apart with her bare hands.
On top of everything, quite a decent amount of time had passed since news of Tangning's exposure on stage had gotten out, yet, Han Yufan hadn't even made a single phone call to check on her. Instead, he had released news that could easily ruin Tangning. There was no way she was going to let Han Yufan hurt her again.
Mo Ting remained silent, but he was already intrigued by Tangning.
Tangning wasn't stupid, in fact, she was very smart. She knew she couldn't hide anything from Mo Ting, so she quickly revealed everything in front of him. Whether good or bad, there was no holding back - all that existed was trust.
"I've asked my assistant to prepare a room in this hotel. Tonight, we will be staying here. My home is no fun..."
Tangning's ears flushed red as she nodded: "Up to you..."
Meanwhile, Han Yufan was all over the place, trying to come to a truce with the media and his business partners. Coupled with the news of Mo Yurou's pregnancy, the thought of Tangning didn't even cross his mind nor did he care where she was right now.
After a romantic dinner, Tangning followed closely behind Mo Ting as he led her to the presidential suite. Surprisingly, it wasn't just any normal presidential suite, it was actually a wedding suite.
Under such rushed conditions, Mo Ting somehow managed to prepare so much for her - she couldn't help but feel touched by his consideration. If it was someone else, there was no way they would have done the same.
Mo Ting could sense the nervousness coming from Tangning. He removed his suit jacket as he turned to her and said, "I'll have a shower first so you can have some time to make a decision. If you are still unsure...we can delay our wedding night indefinitely."
Tangning was thankful for his thoughtfulness as she watched him head into the bathroom. But...they were already married, what right did she have to make Mo Ting accommodate for her childish indecisiveness?
Thinking this, Tangning threw open the door and headed into the bathroom. Mo Ting looked at her in surprise as she reached out and embraced him in a tight hug, "I do not regret!"
"Are you sure? Once I've made you mine, you will no longer have the chance to change your mind," Mo Ting restrained himself. His deep sexy voice was enough to strike a chord in anyone's heart putting them into a daze.
"I am certain."
Hearing her response, Mo Ting let himself go. With one hand, he grabbed Tangning by the waist and pressed his lips against hers. With his other hand, he undid her dress, which was now soaking wet.
Tangning's mind was buzzing. She had never experienced a kiss like this before, one so magical she was losing control.
Standing under the shower, Tangning looked up at Mo Ting. Completely mesmerized, she examined his handsome looks. She noticed the diamond-like mole on his earlobe and his eyes that were looking at her passionately - wanting to swallow her whole.
However, even when the time came to take things further, he did not rush. Instead, he wrapped her in a towel and carried her in his arms out to the rose petal covered bed. Afterwards, his tall body came down on her, he was already wearing protection. However, just as he was about to enter her, he felt an obstruction...
Tangning cried out in pain.
Mo Ting pulled back quickly as he wrapped her in the blanket.
He originally thought, since Tangning was in the entertainment industry and she had already been in a relationship with Han Yufan, this couldn't have possibly been her first time, but...the feeling just now, he was sure, she had never engaged in this type of activity before...
"What's wrong?" Tangning noticed Mo Ting had stopped and couldn't help but lift her head up to question him. Her face was blushing attractively.
"Let's do it next time." Mo Ting was surprised, at the same time he felt bad for having misunderstood Tangning.
"Are you not satisfied with me?"
"If I had continued going...you would have been hurt." Mo Ting put on his robe and returned to the bed, trying to control his desires. He didn't want Tangning's first time to be a bad experience, "Why didn't you tell me you had no experience?"
"How was I to bring up something like this?" Tangning responded as she huddled up against Mo Ting's shoulder. "I knew you would have found out yourself."
"Anyway, what was that just now? Did we...do it?"
"Regardless of whether we did it or not, you are now Mrs. Mo. You can't escape..." After he spoke, Mo Ting stood up, lifted Tangning up and headed for the bathroom, "Let me see if you are hurt."
Looking at the worried expression on his face, Tangning couldn't help but let out a laugh, "You are nothing like how the outside world portrays you."
"How did you think I would be like?" Mo Ting placed Tangning gently into the bathtub and turned on the water.
"A ruler with complete control over the life and death of his entertainers. A person with no human sense."
"To other people, I am indeed like that!" Mo Ting expressed sincerely. "But you are different...since you are my wife and are so trusting of me...I will show you my true self."
"However, Tangning, I must warn you"
"To me, a lie is a lie. If you betray my trust, I will never forgive you."
Tangning sat up comfortably, her nose almost touching Mo Ting's, "What a coincidence, I am the same."
That night, their physical relationship had technically only reached halfway. But, their hearts had been drawn closer together.
The next morning, Tangning awoke to the blinding light of the sun shining through the window. To her surprise, the spot beside her was already empty.
Tangning thought Mo Ting had already left, but...he was actually waiting for her patiently in the living room whilst flipping through some documents.
"I've prepared some new clothes in the bathroom for you. We will leave after you freshen up."
Tangning nodded obediently as she turned towards the bathroom. At that moment, her phone suddenly rang...it was Han Yufan.
Tangning looked at Mo Ting awkwardly as he charmingly lifted one eyebrow and asked, "Do you want me to pick it up?"
Whew...what a chapter to translate. It's always difficult to portray a passionate scene without sounding dirty. Hopefully, you guys enjoyed it. ^_^
