The next day, in the general manager's office of Xu Corporation.
There wasn't much to film today.
Thus, Xu Mo returned to his normal daily routine.
"Mr. Xu, it's been a while since I last saw you. I heard you've been filming with Lin An'an these days?" Jiang Jiajia asked with great curiosity.
Today, she was wearing a white blouse on top and a sexy black pencil skirt paired with black stockings.
The top two buttons of her blouse were left undone, revealing a stunning expanse of snow-white skin.
"That's right!" Xu Mo smiled, not bothering to hide it.
Jiang Jiajia's eyes lit up instantly as she leaned closer to Xu Mo, her tone filled with disbelief.
"Really? Mr. Xu, you actually went to film a movie?"
Xu Mo's lips curled into a charming smile, teasing, "What, don't you believe me?"
If it's something that can annoy the protagonist, is it even worth mentioning?
"Of course I believe you!" Jiang Jiajia said resolutely, moving behind Xu Mo to massage his shoulders and back.
"When is the movie coming out? I'll bring my girlfriends to buy tickets and support you."
Jiang Jiajia's massage skills were top-notch. Not only was she beautiful, but she also had a natural scent that was incredibly alluring.
(๑‾ꇴ‾๑)
While enjoying the massage, Xu Mo replied, "I'm not sure about the exact date, but it should be within two months. If things go smoothly, maybe even in a month."
Jiang Jiajia, do you have a lot of questions in your mind?
(⊙_⊙)?
A movie that wraps up in a month—how good can it possibly be?
If nothing unexpected happens, Lin An'an is about to earn herself another "classic bad movie" award.
But you can't entirely blame Lin An'an.
The fact that Xu Mo agreed to film with her was already a big deal.
What more could you ask for? Acting skills? Memorizing lines?
Just standing there, Xu Mo could easily make up for any lack of acting with his looks.
That's what Jiang Jiajia thought to herself.
"Ahahaha... That's fast. The sooner, the better. That way, I can see Mr. Xu on the big screen sooner!"
Meanwhile, An Youyi sat on the sofa on the other side, cracking sunflower seeds, acting as a background character.
The quiet "Dragon Queen" had an indescribable allure.
Xu Mo thought to himself.
It would be great if the Dragon Queen could stay this quiet forever.
No need for daily greetings or formalities.
Wouldn't it be nice if she could just be a well-behaved, unassuming Dragon Queen?
Buzz-------
The phone on the desk suddenly vibrated.
Xu Mo picked it up and glanced at the caller ID.
Seeing the name, Xu Mo was momentarily stunned, feeling utterly confused. "Why her? What does she want?"
Xu Mo regretted it.
He should have blocked Shen Manni's number earlier!
If he hadn't seen it.
He could have pretended not to know.
But now that he had seen it.
He couldn't just ignore it.
Jiang Jiajia stopped her massage. "Mr. Xu, I'll step out for a moment."
"No need, just find a seat and rest for a bit," Xu Mo waved his hand, not particularly concerned.
Jiang Jiajia nodded and did as Xu Mo instructed.
Xu Mo took a deep breath. The familiar ringtone of a foolish woman—clearly, this call wasn't going to be pleasant.
He swiped to answer.
"Hello? What is it?"
Xu Mo tried to keep his tone as calm as possible.
On the other end of the line.
There was a brief silence.
Then Shen Manni's voice came through.
"Xu Mo, you said you liked me before. Was that a lie?"
Strike first, take the initiative, seize the opportunity, strike before being struck!
The anti-Zhou Qiaoqiao team led by Yang Jingying.
After a whole night and morning of brainstorming.
Hadn't come up with a good way to buy time.
As the saying goes—when all else fails, go all out.
Break the pot if it's already broken.
Zhou Qiaoqiao still wanted to act, playing the fool to deceive others.
But after learning the truth, Yang Jingying and the others couldn't keep up the act.
So they decided to resort to the previous "simp" strategy!
This was the best plan they had come up with after discussing it with Shen Manni!
By taking the initiative, they would shut Xu Mo up.
Leaving him with no room to argue!
And indeed, they succeeded.
Xu Mo: This is ridiculous! Why does all the bad luck fall on me?
This question stumped him!
Xu Mo had never expected in his life.
That such words would come out of Shen Manni's mouth!
Xu Mo's face turned red as he cleared his throat, ready to play the role of a lovesick fool who had been hurt by unrequited love.
"Of course---------not!"
"Back then, my love for you was endless, like a river that never stopped flowing."
He paused, emphasizing the word "back then" to prevent the foolish woman from catching him off guard.
"Back then! Back then, I loved you so much that I was willing to do anything, even if it meant losing my dignity and reputation, ignoring my parents' objections, and disregarding my friends' opinions."
"I pursued you relentlessly, wanting to marry you, to build a home with you."
"But later, I realized that everything I did was in vain. You never even gave me a second glance. I'm tired, truly tired!"
The art of words.
Lies in how you say them.
And how you create resonance.
Xu Mo's performance.
Made it seem like a heart that had been hurt could never love again.
The pain left behind, he would bear it alone.
A simp, a simp.
In the end, the simp has nothing.
Xu Mo—a true veteran actor.
His inner thoughts were already cheering with joyヾ(@^▽^@)ノ
Sitting on the other side.
Xu Mo's voice wasn't too loud or too soft, but it could be heard throughout the room.
Jiang Jiajia's girlish heart was deeply moved!
"Hahaha... Serves you right! Mr. Xu is such a good man—he doesn't smoke or drink, works regular hours."
"He doesn't hang out with shady friends or go wild. A man like him, who was willing to set aside his dignity and pride to pursue you, and you still acted all high and mighty? Did you save the galaxy in your past life?"
"You slapped Mr. Xu, and now you want him to come back to you?"
"Dream on!"
Jiang Jiajia felt a strong sense of injustice on Xu Mo's behalf.
It just goes to show how incredibly skilled Xu Mo's acting was!
Hearing Xu Mo's "heartfelt words," An Youyi's hand, holding the sunflower seeds, trembled slightly.
Fortunately, Xu Mo's inner thoughts were completely different.
They were polar opposites.
If Jiang Jiajia could hear Xu Mo's inner thoughts.
She would realize.
That all the bamboo shoots on the mountain had already been taken by her Mr. Xu.
Moshi moshi, there's more, this is now a full-on battle royale.
On the surface, everyone is getting along, but in reality, all the female leads are vying for the first kill.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
rowess are unmatched, commanding a million-strong army! Yet, the Emperor wants to depose him for the sake of a false prince? Hold on, are you throwing me into some female-oriented romance plot?

The False Prince: "Although I am not the biological son, Father and Mother love me more. The throne should be mine!" The Female Lead: "Qin Xiao, you are the Emperor, and I am a commoner. If you wish to marry me, you must abdicate. Otherwise, you will never have me!" The Empress: "After we divorce, you must give me half the empire!" The Transmigrator Consort: "You worthless Emperor, why should I kneel to you? All men are equal—I advise you to be kind!" The Great General: "The enemy general is my childhood sweetheart. For her sake, I willingly abandon the frontier defenses!" The Retired Emperor: "Although Yu'er was adopted, I prefer him. Qin Xiao, you should abdicate and let him become Emperor!" ... Very well! So this is how you want to play? Facing this twisted world of female-oriented tropes, Qin Xiao grins and raises his hand to unleash—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! I am the Emperor. Why would I bother reasoning with you? Seal the gates! Leave none alive!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
