Ye Mo, who works in the entertainment industry, understands this very well.
In their circle, there are many handsome men and beautiful women, but the offspring of these handsome men and beautiful women rarely surpass their parents in appearance. Therefore, good-looking parents may have ordinary children, while parents who are not particularly good-looking may have children who are exceptionally good-looking, like the winner of the lottery.
Ning Aiqi knew this too, but...
"... Sigh, if only we had a child who had the best features of both of you, I wonder how adorable that would be," she said longingly.
"..." After a few seconds of silence, Ye Mo asked sincerely, "Aren't you overthinking this? My relationship with He Mingzhang is currently completely unrelated."
So, how did Ning Aiqi already think about having a child with the two of them?
In response, Ning Aiqi waved her hand, saying, "Mind your own business when it comes to CP (couple) stuff."
Ye Mo: "..."
Ning Aiqi was halfway through removing Ye Mo's makeup when the door to the dressing room was opened from the outside, and Yao Yuwei, who hadn't removed her makeup yet, walked in.
Hearing the door open, Ye Mo merely lifted her eyelids to glance at herself in the mirror. Seeing that it was Yao Yuwei, she lowered her eyes again, losing interest, and continued playing on her phone.
Ning Aiqi, however, sensed something amiss in Yao Yuwei's expression.
Yao Yuwei walked to the dressing table, looked at Ye Mo's beautiful and radiant face in the mirror, and couldn't help but feel a hint of jealousy in her eyes.
"... Now that you've already climbed up to the Ye Corporation, don't be greedy! Be careful you don't end up losing more than you gain." She suddenly said coldly, " Mr. He. He isn't someone you can seduce."
Clearly, she was unaware of Ye Mo's relationship with the Ye Corporation. She only assumed that Ye Mo had hooked up with someone from the Ye Corporation to become her sugar daddy. Or rather, she had actually suspected the relationship between Ye Mo and the Ye Corporation before, but... perhaps out of jealousy, she was unwilling to admit her suspicions and only wanted to believe that Ye Mo had found someone from the Ye Corporation to be her sugar daddy.
Upon hearing her words, Ye Mo, who was playing on his phone, paused, finally looking up again at the second female lead from their film crew.
To be honest, Ye Mo wasn't very familiar with Yao Yuwei. In comparison, she was more familiar with the third female lead in the crew, since the two had worked together before. As for Yao Yuwei, Ye Mo's understanding of her was mostly based on gossip she learned from 888.
For example, Yao Yuwei's sugar daddy is a short, fat, greasy middle-aged man who's very promiscuous in bed and is also somewhat perverted; another example is that the reason Yao Yuwei hasn't joined the crew for so long is because she got too carried away with this sugar daddy in bed and injured herself... This makes Ye Mo's expression quite subtle every time he looks at Yao Yuwei.
--Is this kind of gossip something a poor, helpless, and naive elementary school student should listen to?
However, Ye Mo did not expect that Yao Yuwei would come to him and say such strange things.
Indeed, men are stumbling blocks on the road of life, bringing trouble to oneself.
Ye Mo thought to himself.
She glanced at Yao Yuwei, whose expression was somewhat annoyed, raised an eyebrow, and retorted, " Mr. He. He isn't someone like me who can be seduced? Then do you think someone like you can be seduced?"
She rolled her eyes, couldn't help but scoff, and said rudely, " Miss Yao, I'm curious, in what capacity are you speaking to me like this? A suitor of He Mingzhang? Unfortunately, He Mingzhang doesn't seem interested in you at all. Let me guess what he said to you today..."
Ye Mo to think for a few seconds, then asked Yao Yuwei with a smile, "I guess he warned you not to do anything strange again, or he'd kick you out of the crew?"
"So, tell me, if I told him about your current threats against me, what do you think he would do?"
Chapter 76 The Seventy-Sixth Melon What kind of melon is it? It's the one you eat seventy-six times...
" Miss Yao, you've come up to me now, acting like you're asserting your dominance. Anyone who doesn't know the inside story would probably think you and Mr. He have some kind of relationship..." Ye Mo's tone was sarcastic, not hiding his sarcasm towards Yao Yuwei.
She smiled and said, "Fortunately, as someone from the film crew, I witnessed firsthand how Mr. He treated you with utter indifference these past few days, and how completely unmoved he was by your attempts to please him..."
Ye Mo definitely knew how to infuriate people. Every word she uttered was aimed at Yao Yuwei's sore spots. Yao Yuwei was so angry that the veins on her forehead throbbed, and she was just short of jumping up and down in anger.
"Don't be so smug!" she said angrily to Ye Mo, "I'm now with He..."
"It's okay, sir, but that doesn't mean we'll have no relationship in the future... Let me tell you, he's the one I've set my sights on, so don't even think about trying to seduce him!"
Ye Mo found it somewhat amusing and said, "I think you shouldn't say this to me, but to He Mingzhang... Look, do you see? These are the flowers he gave me. He sends me a bouquet like this every day. You should understand the meaning behind it, right?"
She gave Yao Yuwei a provocative smile and said, "Anyone can see that he's interested in me, not the other way around. So instead of coming here to warn me, you should go warn He Mingzhang to stay away from me."
Yao Yuwei: "..."
If Yao Yuwei dared to say these things to He Mingzhang, she wouldn't be standing in front of Ye Mo now. She understands what Ye Mo said better than anyone else, but she doesn't dare to say anything to He Mingzhang, so she can only rage helplessly in front of Ye Mo.
Now, Ye Mo ruthlessly ripped off the veil covering her face, and her expression suddenly became quite attractive.
"... Aren't you afraid I'll tell Mr. Ye behind you about these things?" Yao Yuwei glared at Ye Mo resentfully, gritting her teeth as she asked, "Aren't you afraid Mr. Ye will find out about you and Mr. He and blacklist you?"
Ye Mo looked thoughtful and asked, "Hmm, I wonder which Mr. Ye you're referring to?"
Yao Yuwei's eyes widened, and she blurted out, "You've been seducing more than one member of the Ye Family?"
Ye Mo nodded. "That's right, I know more than one Mr. Ye. If you want to tell them about me and He Mingzhang, go ahead!" She was completely unfazed.
Yao Yuwei snapped out of her daze, shocked but also feeling a pang of bitterness and jealousy towards Ye Mo. It was one thing that she couldn't compare to Ye Mo Ye Mo in other aspects, but why was he also better than her at finding a sugar daddy?
"... You actually hooked up with so many men, how shameless! You promiscuous slut!" Perhaps out of jealousy towards Ye Mo Ye Mo, she spoke without thinking, launching into a tirade of insults against him.
"Smack!"
Ye Mo stood up and slapped her across the face without hesitation.
Yao Yuwei's eyes widened as she looked at Ye Mo, exclaiming incredulously, "You actually dared to hit me?"
Hearing this, Ye Mo couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and retort, "Why wouldn't I dare hit you? If you utter any more foul language, I'll slap you a few more times... Do you want to try?"
"You bitch!" Yao Yuwei's eyes were bloodshot as she immediately lunged at Ye Mo.
Ye Mo effortlessly grabbed her wrists as they reached out to grab him, then slapped her across the other cheek. Afterward, he exhaled and said with satisfaction, "Phew, finally symmetrical..."
--A slap on each side, one on each side, finally gave her some relief from her obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Yao Yuwei was absolutely enraged by the second slap, and screamed, "Ahhh! I'll kill you!"
