Chapter 256: I Simply Hope That Tangnings Marriage Was Worth it (2/2)
”It's so unfair that Tangning has President Mo as her manager. Whenever we want to take photos, we need to be wary of President Mo's mood.”
”That's why I think Tangning will win her battle with Zhen Manni.”
”Regardless, we have a good show to watch soon, let's just wait. Since President Mo has arrived, we should stop taking photos. If we anger him, none of us will want to face the consequences.”
The reporters discussed amongst themselves. Although they all wanted to capture a huge scoop, they were wary of Mo Ting.
Not long after, Tangnign arrived at Huo Jingjing's front door and gave it a knock. Huo Jingjing's manager was cautious as she questioned their identities from behind the door. After Tangning identified herself, the door slowly opened and Huo Jingjing's manager invited them inside.
Upon seeing Mo Ting, Huo Jingjing's manager started crying without saying anything. Tangning understood as she quickly ushered her into the bathroom to compose herself.
As Huo Jingjing was hiding in her bedroom, Mo Ting did not go inside. Tangning grabbed a glass of water from the kitchen and handed it to Mo Ting. After ensuring that he'd be alright on his own, she entered Huo Jingjing's bedroom.
In actual fact, as soon as Tangning lay eyes on Huo Jingjing she wanted so badly to burst out into tears. The corner of Huo Jingjing's lips were swollen and the cheekbone under her left eye was bloody; she was barely recognizable. However, Tangning forced herself to smile...
She actually smiled!
”Why are you here?” Huo Jingjing desperately tried to cover her face, but Tangning held onto her arm.
”In front of me, what do you have to hide?” Tangning's eyes slowly turned red. ”I warned you not to get involved, yet you didn't listen! Don't you know I have Mo Ting to protect me?”
”There's no point talking about this now.”
Not long after, Mo Ting appeared behind the two women. After taking a quick glance at Huo Jingjing, he said to Tangning, ”You go out first, I have something to say to Huo Jingjing.”
Tangning looked at Mo Ting confusedly.
But, Mo Ting gave her a reassuring look. So she nodded her head and stood up.
Facing Mo Ting on her own, Huo Jingjing felt a little nervous. She wanted to sit up, but Mo Ting stopped her, ”Just stay there.”
”May I ask what President Mo wants to speak to me about?”
Mo Ting had an icy-cold vibe as he spun the wedding ring on his finger, ”If you truly had good intentions for Tangning, you shouldn't have created a mess like this to make her worry.”
”President Mo, I'm sure you understand why I had to intensify their battle.”
”Did you think I would hurt Tangning in order to show fairness in Hai Rui? I don't put up a fake facade like that...” Mo Ting replied, ”So, it's not necessary for you to test me by sacrificing yourself.”
”I simply hope that Tangning's marriage was worth it.”
”Whether it's worth it, is a matter between us. As for what I decide to do, I don't need to report to you. Seeing you are true to Tangning, I won't make a fuss about it, but...don't ever sacrifice yourself like this again. Hurting yourself is truly not worth it.” After speaking, Mo Ting stood up, left Huo Jingjing's room and returned to Tangning's side.
Tangning stood up from the sofa and smiled. She could roughly guess what Mo Ting talked to Huo Jingjing about.
”At the celebration dinner, I will definitely be strong for your sake,” Tangning said in a serious tone.
