Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 1425: Can’t she see through her trick?

Perhaps it was because she once possessed the status and had a full appreciation of it, she didn’t think much of it. Moreover, she now had a strong family background—she didn’t lack money.

Therefore, what Su Manman was more concerned about was whether she could make history in the film industry.

With this thought in mind, Su Manman was determined to get the role in Director Chen Wenhua’s movie.

Tu Jie was prepared to go in and smooth talk Director Chen Wenhua in case he was being picky about Su Manman...

Unexpectedly, he saw a few directors excitedly discussing changing the script when he entered. It seemed like Su Manman’s performance had given them new perspectives of the scenes, which they felt were even better than the original idea.

“This young lady’s acting isn’t bad at all. She portrayed the charm of someone from the Nine-tailed Fox race naturally. Her actions and words were seductive but not forced. She didn’t suppress it before finding out about her actual identity!”

When Tu Jie heard this, he stopped himself from approaching Director Chen Wenhua and just quietly stood by the side. He wanted to gauge the situation more before talking to the director. However, just as he was about to listen quietly, Director Chen Wenhua saw him.

“Tu Jie, what are you doing over there?” Director Chen Wenhua asked.

Tu Jie grinned at Director Chen Wenhua. “I’m trying to eavesdrop on your evaluation of Manman so that I can find out her faults and get her to change them. After all, she’s a newcomer, and I didn’t expect her to be selected! I heard from Hanchu that... you had specifically reserved this role for Mingzhu back then and had to shelf the project because of Mingzhu’s sudden passing!”

“The young lady Shi Hanchu recommended isn’t bad at all!” Director Chen Wenhua smiled and heaved a sigh of relief. “We’ll go ahead and cast her!”

The director’s plan to release this movie had been delayed for so many years. It was because he had had a hard time finding a suitable actress to play the leading role.

Director Chen Wenhua had been unable to find an actress with excellent acting skills who was also as good-looking as Jiang Mingzhu. But Su Manman’s appearance had indeed made his eyes light up.

Her beauty was one thing, but what impressed him even more was Su Manman’s perception and understanding of the script. It was simply outstanding!

Su Manman had impressed Director Chen Wenhua so much that he was still in shock. Today, he finally saw an actress that was more outstanding than Jiang Mingzhu.

When Tu Jie heard Director Chen Wenhua’s words, his heart started racing.

The most nitpicky director in the entire entertainment industry, Chen Wenhua, had decided to use Su Manman as the main lead in his movie. What kind of signal was this?

Su Manman was bound to become popular...

“Alright! Director Chen... I’ll take Manman back first and let her memorize the script properly. Then... can I officially announce that you’ve chosen Manman to be the female lead?” Tu Jie was very respectful towards Director Chen Wenhua.

“After we establish the official Weibo account for the production, we’ll announce the casts by mentioning them. When that happens, you can repost it!” Director Chen Wenhua said.

“Okay! If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first!” Tu Jie’s words were filled with delight.

“For the time being, at least until she’s done filming this movie, please don’t arrange other activities for her. Let her focus on filming this movie. Tell her that as long as she performs well, her future opportunities will be limitless!”

This was what Director Chen Wenhua wanted him to convey to Su Manman, as well as something he wanted to tell him!

The meaning behind his words was clear. He didn’t want Su Manman to take on any commercial or endorsement deals before this movie was released. After starring in this movie, Su Manman would definitely get higher endorsement offers.

It wasn’t a bad idea to offer an olive branch to Su Manman, but if Su Manman were to act in Director Chen Wenhua’s movie, she would have no lack of luxury item endorsements in the future!

Tu Jie nodded. “Don’t worry, Director Chen. I understand what’s important.”

After coming out, Tu Jie held back his excitement and told Su Manman about this news. He told Su Manman to stay at home to focus on the script and not be concerned with other things during this time. He would help Su Manman decline any other activities, including the promotion for “The Olden Days.” He didn’t plan to let Su Manman participate in them.

“Wouldn’t this affect Manman negatively?” Dong Dong asked, a little worried. “Everyone already knows that Manman has a bad temper and isn’t easy to please. What if someone makes a big deal of the situation that Meng Yuqiao has already apologized, but Manman still refuses to bury the hatchet?”

“It’s okay. Who says that you are obliged to forgive if someone apologizes! You don’t have to worry about that!” Su Manman then said to Tu Jie, “I don’t wish to take on any other activities either. I’ll listen to you and focus on the script at home!”

After returning to her residence with Dong Dong, Su Manman watched Du Lingyang’s interview and Meng Yuqiao’s live broadcast and sneered...

These two were really capable, just like a cockroach that couldn’t be beaten to death.

Su Manman placed her phone aside and was about to read the script when she heard Dong Dong say unhappily, “Meng Yuqiao is really shameless! It’s already been two years since the movie queen, Jiang Mingzhu, passed away, yet she keeps bringing her up, tying herself up with her. It’s one thing for her to make an issue out of it... but she even tried to include Jiang Mingzhu’s mother into her attempts. Are Jiang Mingzhu’s fans all brainless? They think this woman values friendship and loyalty! But not only did she snatch her friend’s boyfriend, but she also wants to snatch her mother!”

Upon hearing this, Su Manman frowned and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Dong Dong grew increasingly furious. She handed the phone to Su Manman. “It’s Meng Yuqiao! After getting severely scolded for accusing you of imitating Jiang Mingzhu, she directly went to Jiang Mingzhu’s mother. She pitifully apologized to Jiang Mingzhu’s mother, saying that she had smeared Jiang Mingzhu’s name with her actions. Jiang Mingzhu’s mother comforted her, saying she valued her! Isn’t this bullshit? Who would bring reporters to take photos of you apologizing?”

Su Manman was fuming when she saw the photo.

Su Manman couldn’t care less about Meng Yuqiao’s methods to clear her name. What she couldn’t tolerate was Meng Yuqiao using her mother for it.

But she couldn’t just go to her mother and say that Meng Yuqiao was not even her friend...

Jiang Mingzhu had a bad relationship with her mother because of her persistence to enter the entertainment industry.

The mother-and-daughter duo were estranged, not knowing about each other’s life and had not interacted in years!

Now that her daughter was dead, her mother’s guilt was used on this woman who claimed to be her best friend.

Su Manman didn’t understand. Her mother was such a strong and smart person. Could she really not see through Meng Yuqiao’s tricks?

Or...

Su Manman’s grip on her phone tightened slightly. Or... did she choose to accept Meng Yuqiao because she missed her daughter too much and was too lonely?

Su Manman could hear her heartbeat. She was certain that it was the latter.

When one was lonely, they would be very tolerant towards the person by their side.

Back when Jiang Mingzhu passed away, she had seen the news... Meng Yuqiao had acted as a good friend and accompanied her mother for more than a month.
