After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family - Chapter 89
When Sun Mo arrived, he found only Xu Meng there. As soon as Xu Meng saw him, she hurriedly tried to leave, as if not wanting to be alone with him in the same space.
Feeling provoked, Sun Mo grabbed Xu Meng’s arm as she passed by and coldly questioned her, “Why are you running away? Aren’t you here for rehearsal?”
“I… I… I don’t think it’s appropriate for us to be alone together right now. I have a boyfriend, and don’t you have a fiancée?” Xu Meng said with downcast eyes, trying to break free, but her eyes involuntarily turned red.
She looked like she was struggling to hold back her sadness.
Sun Mo felt a wave of emotion, as if he couldn’t breathe.
“You’re right, I have a fiancée, and I love her very much. She’s been with me for years and is a loyal woman. We’ll get married after this show is over, so don’t be so full of yourself. Do you really think something would happen if we’re alone together?” Sun Mo said firmly.
Xu Meng trembled and fell silent.
“The condition for you to assist in this performance is that I’m the male lead on stage, so you’re all just supporting my act. I don’t want you to interfere with my work! Or is it that you can’t stand it because you abandoned me back then, but now you have to work with me?”
Xu Meng suddenly looked up at Sun Mo, tears falling down her face.
Sun Mo’s gaze darkened, but he acted as if he hadn’t seen Xu Meng crying. “Stay. Let’s rehearse properly!”
Xu Meng was forcefully made to stay by Sun Mo, compelled to start rehearsing.
Ji Fei was flipping through gossip, enjoying the drama.
[How provocative! This move is too provocative. Sun Mo, do you dare say you didn’t do this on purpose? Out of so many scenes, you just happened to choose one with a kiss that needs rehearsing? And it’s a scene where Xu Meng has to take the initiative to confess and ask for a kiss. Sun Mo thinks he’s humiliating Xu Meng, but you’re really just making excuses to seek benefits, even fooling yourself.]
Qin Zhao and Qin Rong: Haha, the real intention is not what it seems!
[I dare you not to forcefully embrace and kiss her later, just because Xu Meng’s hesitation and reluctance stimulated you? Is she a walking spring, just happening to make you, an animal with an underdeveloped brain, go into heat?]
Qin Zhao and Qin Rong: Shameless, vulgar, brazen.
[This is exactly like those toxic love dramas where the male lead has shit for brains, hugging and kissing while claiming it’s not love but hate. Your hate is quite unique, insisting on making trouble when it’s really just flirting. Although I don’t know how these two will end up, I feel sorry for Yang Hong and Pei Mingxuan.]
Qin Zhao and Qin Rong nodded in agreement: Indeed, one’s head is glowing green, and the other is forced to be a tool for added scenes. They really think they’re the lead couple, and others are just cannon fodder on their path to love?
Inside, Pei Mingxuan was already shaking with anger, especially after hearing Sun Mo’s high-sounding reasons. She was almost laughing from anger.
Even for a formal live broadcast, this kind of stage performance only needs to be simulated. Who rehearses like this seriously?
“Rehearsal? Sun Mo, do you know where we are?” Pei Mingxuan’s bright eyes stared intently at Sun Mo.
[A public place with people coming and going, full of gossip. But for a man with his mind in the gutter, anywhere and anytime is fine. He doesn’t have the extra brain capacity to think about how much trouble this could cause.]
Sure enough, Sun Mo showed impatience, “I’ll say it again, it’s just a rehearsal.”
“But netizens won’t accept such an explanation. If someone happened to film what just occurred and deliberately spread it, the headline ‘Sun Mo Takes Advantage of Someone Else’s Girlfriend Under the Guise of Filming’ would dominate the hot search.”
Sun Mo was instantly stung by the sarcasm and became angry from embarrassment, “Enough! This is endless. Don’t be jealous out of context, like a shrew.”
Pei Mingxuan was stunned by his words.
The onlookers outside: !!!!
[Hahaha, what is he thinking? It’s the most reasonable assumption, yet he thinks Pei is just being jealous and saying it on purpose. I bet Pei’s blood pressure is skyrocketing right now, and she probably feels the humiliation of being slandered.]
Pei Mingxuan seemed to come back to her senses from the shock, pointing at herself incredulously, “I’m jealous? Like a shrew? Sun Mo, do you dare say that again?”
[Oh ho, Pei can’t hold her temper anymore.]
Sun Mo was taken aback. It was the first time Pei Mingxuan had been so disrespectful to him in front of others. Originally feeling a bit guilty, he now became righteous, “I’ve already explained. Don’t make trouble out of nothing.”
In his mind, Pei Mingxuan was only furious because he kissed Xu Meng. After all, he had already made promises to Pei Mingxuan, which in a way gave her the right to be angry.
But he didn’t like Pei Mingxuan acting like she was in charge, so after speaking, he turned to leave in a huff.
“Stop right there, Sun Mo!” Pei Mingxuan shouted angrily. He caused trouble and was just going to walk away?
Surprisingly, the one who tried to calm her down was Yang Hong.
“Sister Pei, don’t be angry. This really is in the script. They probably just got too into character just now, so…”
The onlookers looked at Yang Hong differently now. What kind of modern-day cuckold was this? Actually making excuses for the man who took advantage of his own girlfriend.
Even Sun Mo was a bit confused as he looked at Yang Hong.
Yang Hong smiled generously at Sun Mo and said, “Don’t worry, Brother Mo. I don’t misunderstand.”
At this point, even Xu Meng, who had been acting pitiful the whole time, forgot to manage her expression.
Pei Mingxuan looked at Yang Hong in disbelief, but as she kept looking, she suddenly had a realization. “Wait, script? Your script doesn’t have any romantic scenes.”
[As expected of Sister Pei, even faced with such an infuriating scene, she still spotted the blind spot.]
The theme of their PK this time was faith.
Pei Mingxuan hoped for peaceful development, so she had openly communicated with Gao Hao to ensure both groups had different themes. She didn’t want her group to face the embarrassment of being mocked and crushed in all aspects like the celebrity group last time.
Moreover, Pei Mingxuan had considered a lot for Sun Mo’s sake. To connect with his future career transformation direction, she had chosen a patriotic theme, portraying a hero with faith in the country. Yang Hong was playing the antagonist, and Xu Meng was a related victim. There were no romantic scenes between the three of them throughout.
Pei Mingxuan had been too angry to think clearly, but now she realized – where did this kiss scene come from?
“Added scenes?” Qin Zhao whispered questioningly.
“Adding this kind of scene?” Qin Rong asked in shock.
“Maybe it wasn’t added at all, just an excuse,” Gao Hao said disdainfully.
Ji Fei clicked her tongue twice, [It’s not added scenes, the whole script has been changed.]
Qin Zhao and Qin Rong were shocked. Changing the script wasn’t a big deal, but how could the manager not know about it?
At this moment, Pei Mingxuan inside also finally realized they weren’t performing the original script at all.
Even from a distance, one could feel that Pei Mingxuan was just one step away from erupting like a volcano.
“You have the final say on the script. Did you decide to change it?” Pei Mingxuan asked Sun Mo through gritted teeth.
Sun Mo probably finally understood what it meant to feel guilty. Avoiding Pei Mingxuan’s gaze, he said, “I thought this one was better.”
Pei Mingxuan laughed, “Behind my back, you discarded the script I carefully selected for you and replaced it with a celebrity love triangle. So you’re not planning on transforming your career anymore?”
