The Crazy Son-In-Law

Xiao Shun and Wang Pangzi were chatting enthusiastically as if they were old friends, without the slightest hint of unfamiliarity, as if they had known each other for years.

Not far away, Zhao Shutong and Mo Yibai were also chatting as if they were familiar with each other.

Of course, the polite smiles on Mo Yibai’s face were almost entirely put on. After all, she wasn’t very fond of the second-generation rich kid next to her.

In contrast, Zhao Shu Tong was showing his greatest enthusiasm at the moment, almost repeating everything he knew, just short of saying, “I have a house, a car, and savings, but no wife!”

Mo Yibai patiently listened for a long time. Seeing that this guy hadn’t mentioned anything about a movie collaboration, she couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Zhao, may I ask what type of movie your recent investment is in and whether it has entered the preparation stage?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shu Tong grinned and said, “Miss Mo, you don’t need to worry. Investing a few hundred million in making a movie is not a problem at all for Yangtze Entertainment. However…”

At this point, he paused, and his eyes began to wander shamelessly over Mo Yibai. As his gaze roamed, a smile played at the corners of his mouth.

Seeing this, Mo Yibai pretended not to notice and slightly distanced herself from Mr. Zhao, saying lightly, “However, what?”

Reluctantly withdrawing his gaze, Zhao Shu Tong inwardly thought: This is getting interesting. I wonder what kind of attitude this big star would have if she let loose!NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

This thought had just surfaced in his mind when Zhao Shu Tong suddenly felt a surge of excitement, as if a fire had been ignited within him. He had encountered quite a few celebrities before, but none of those flashy and superficial fans could compare to the stunning and captivating Mo Yibai before him. Her bewitching eyes were enough to make a man lose his mind.

“Cough, the matter of the movie is easy to discuss. You know there are a lot of people here right now. How about we go to my villa tonight and discuss this matter in private?” Mr. Zhao said with a meaningful look and an extremely confident smile on his face.

At the same time, his group of friends also began to cheer and jeer, teasing each other with words.

Immediately, Mo Yibai, with a straight face, said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Zhao, but I just remembered I have something to attend to. I should head back now.”

With that, she stood up without further ado. However, upon scanning the private room, she found no trace of Xiao Shun, feeling somewhat annoyed. She intended to teach this incompetent bodyguard a lesson later.

In fact, before coming here, she knew that Zhao Shu Tong had ulterior motives toward her. However, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and come. Now that the other party had made his intentions clear, she didn’t need to continue to be polite and reject Mr. Zhao’s offer with tact, giving him some face.

However, Zhao Shu Tong, obviously not well-read, was ignorant of the concept of reciprocity. Seeing Mo Yibai stand up to leave, how could he just sit by and do nothing?

At that moment, Zhao Shu Tong suddenly reached out and pulled Mo Yibai back, forcibly pressing her into the chair, teasing, “Miss Mo doesn’t want to give me, Zhao, any face?”

Mo Yibai wanted nothing more than to slap Zhao Shu Tong across the face, but she couldn’t. After all, being a good celebrity meant having too many constraints on her actions.

So, she had to suppress her anger and casually said, “Mr. Zhao, you’ve misunderstood. I still have some business to discuss with Mr. Tan. I must go over there.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shu Tong looked at Mo Yibai with interest. “Oh! So you look down on me? You go when Tan Haohan calls, but you won’t come when I call?”

“Damn, she’s just a star, she really thinks highly of herself.”

“Haha, Old Zhao, this big star probably looks down on your Zhao family, otherwise, she wouldn’t just focus on Tan Haohan!”

“She acts high and mighty, but she’s just a nobody.”

The room was suddenly filled with a cacophony of derogatory remarks about Mo Yibai’s status as a star. After all, everyone present were the sons of wealthy businessmen, and in their eyes, a mere celebrity was nothing special.

Listening to the derogatory remarks, Mo Yibai was burning with anger. She may be a star, but she had never been so humiliated before.

Becoming a star was her lifelong dream, and she had put in a lot of effort for it. However, she had always maintained her dignity and integrity and had never compromised herself for the sake of resources.

The words just now had undoubtedly struck a nerve, and Mo Yibai, with a cold look, glanced at Zhao Shu Tong and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Zhao, please show some restraint.”

“Restraint?” Zhao Shu Tong smirked. “Heh, in front of everyone, I won’t pretend anymore. Name your price. I, Zhao, can afford it!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room ignited. Whistles, cheers, and grating laughter filled the air!

Mo Yibai’s face gradually turned cold, and her eyes expressed nothing but disdain as she looked at Zhao Shu Tong. Although she didn’t say anything, her demeanor had already given her answer.

Seeing this, Zhao Shu Tong was not angry. He chuckled and said, “Oh, trying to act innocent in front of everyone? Well then, name your price. I, Zhao, can afford it!”

With that, he reached out, took out a checkbook from his pocket, and a pen of considerable value from his jacket. Swiftly, he wrote down a string of numbers on a check. Then, tearing it off, he slammed it on the table, boasting, “Ten million, is that enough?”

Paying ten million and having a try with a top-tier celebrity was undoubtedly a fair price, even a bit of a premium. After all, among the celebrities Zhao Shu Tong had been involved with previously, there were quite a few A-listers, and the highest price he had paid before was only five million.

However, those mediocre stars couldn’t hold a candle to Mo Yibai. If he could secure Mo Yibai for ten million, Zhao felt it would be an absolute bargain.

But the result was somewhat unexpected. He made a grand gesture, offering ten million, yet Mo Yibai didn’t even spare a glance at the check, displaying an extremely arrogant attitude.

“Huh, this girl’s got some nerve, but I like it!”

Without further ado, Zhao Shu Tong once again wrote with confidence, and after a lengthy flourish, he placed another check for two million in front of Mo Yibai.

This time, let’s see what you’ll do!

With this thought in mind, Zhao Shu Tong calmly looked at Mo Yibai.

However, what happened next dealt a heavy blow to his confidence once again.
