Seeing Tangning remaining calm, the actor felt a chill down his spine and heart freeze...
If he had known Tangning was personally acquainted with Hai Rui, he would not have challenged her...if he was to offend Mo Ting, it could be possible that he'd never land a role as the main character ever again! He didn't want to take this risk.
A line of sweat rolled down the actor's forehead. After careful thought, he finally threw away his niece's hand and approached Tanging, scratching his head awkwardly, "Errr...Miss Tang. I didn't mean to offend you earlier on...I had no idea you were friends with President Mo..."
" ?|M
Everyone thought they were seeing things...
...as well as hearing things.
The actor that had been pushing others into a corner earlier, had suddenly become so polite and submissive?
Was he admitting he was wrong?
Yang Jing was furious. She had never imagined Tangning would have this layer of relations. So, naturally, she didn't expect Mo Ting and Tangning's relationship to be very strong; if Tangning really did have a strong relationship with Mo Ting, according to her personality, there was no way she wouldn't create hype. They must simply know each other in passing and Lu Che's appearance was just a coincidence.
Of course, Yang Jing's analysis was quite reasonable. Unfortunately, she would one day have to pay for her assumptions!
"Uncle, why are you apologizing to her?" Qin Lu was unwilling to accept what her uncle was doing. What was so good about a model that came from nowhere?
"Lu Lu, you are still young, you still have a lot of opportunities to do the opening, why don't we give this opportunity back to Miss Tang..."
Hearing this, Tangning couldn't help but laugh. Where did their bottom line go?
Didn't they say they couldn't allow someone to come out of nowhere?
"It's OK, I indeed landed out of nowhere...It's just that I had no idea all of you went through a series of auditions to get here. I merely promised a friend to come help out," Tangning rejected them politely.
What right did they have to call the shots? How could they assume that they could have something when they want it and give it away when they didn't?
Tangning's response was open-ended, she deliberately left them hanging so they would feel uneasy...
She knew Mo Ting almost made an appearance personally because he couldn't bear seeing her suffer. So, she couldn't let these bullies off so easily.
Seeing Tangning didn't say anything else, the actor realized he was being treated with contempt. So all he could do was turn away with Qin Lu back to their seat.
Yang Jing had originally thought Tangning would take advantage of the situation to take back her opening, since it was a rare opportunity, but Tangning did not do that - she maintained her moral integrity. Yang Jing did not know what Tangning was thinking deep down. Tangning believed that no matter which part of the show she walked, or what she wore, nothing could change the fact that she was Tangning.
The Tangning that would only allow herself to be number one for the sake of Mo Ting!
Because of Lu Che's appearance, the atmosphere in the backstage had changed. Those that had previously ridiculed Tangning, no longer dared to roll their eyes at her. The atmosphere was now relaxed and comfortable and Tangning was a lot more laid-back. Mo Ting's name was indeed useful; just a simple mention was enough to make everyone tremble. When would her name have the same effect?
As the order had changed...Tangning was to be the third model to walk out and Qin Lu remained as the opening model. However, her mood right now wasn't as relaxed as before, because she had just realized she may have offended Hai Rui on behalf of her uncle.
This was exactly the type of mood Tangning wanted her to be in...
Having a background could be useful, but it wasn't effective every time!
