124 Can I watch? (2/2)

”I'm sorry for how I treated you four years ago. I'm sorry for letting you leave in tears. I'm sorry for not finding you until now and letting you raise our son alone... I'm sorry for him getting kidnapped today.”

”I have made so many mistakes and I don't deserve a second chance, but Su Lian, please give me one. I want to be a part of both your lives, not just his. I don't feel safe with you living in this neighborhood either. Will you move in with me.”

”Su Lian?”

Getting no reply, he looks at her through the rear-view mirror and sees that both she and their son and fast asleep in the backseat.

He sighs and shakes his head.

'Better luck next time.'

.....

Su Mo Chou sits in front of her vanity stand and stares into the mirror. She runs her fingers through her shoulder-length hair and smiles at her reflection.

Although she can't be called rare beauty, she has a very full chest and delicate features that make her a sight for sore eyes.

A young lady waits by her side staring at her. There is a trace of impatience in her eyes.

Su Mo Chou adds a coat of shimmering lip gloss over her matte red lipstick. Without looking up, she addresses the woman beside her. ”LiMei, do you think I can get this role?”

Yang LiMei, the young woman nods her head sluggishly.

She is very passionate about the entertainment industry. She knows that she does not have what it takes to become an actress so she chose to become an assistant to one instead. At least she will be able to see first hand what goes on behind the scenes and meet with different celebrities.

But alas, her dreams were nothing but fart.

She couldn't find a job, not even under a C-list actress. She was about to give up until a lady named Qin Rong hired her to be her daughter's assistant.

The pay and benefits she offered her were extremely generous considering the fact that Su Mo Chou was still an unknown actress.

She allowed herself to be momentarily blinded by greed and signed a three-year contract to work as her assistant.

Now, six months in, she is filled with regret. Since she started working, Su Mo Chou hasn't gotten a single role.

Not only that, she hasn't even been signed to a company, she doesn't even have an agent.

Su Mo Chou goes to audition for roles way above her qualifications and doesn't even try to prepare. She thinks that she can rely on her looks that are only slightly above average to seduce the judges.

”Miss, maybe you should read the script. That will definitely increase your chances” Yang LiMei tries to persuade Su Mo Chou and gives her the script she has in her hands but she doesn't take it.

”I don't need it. Scripts are for amateurs. A real actress only needs to read the summary and everything else will fall into place.”

Su Mo Chou puts away her lip gloss and takes out her eyeshadow palette.

”I haven't heard from Murong Ning since that lady from the Yun family took the both of us.” Remembering how she was beaten to a pulp, Su Mo Chou clenches her fist. She'll get back at that abandoned woman. Just wait until she becomes Li Shaofeng's wife.

The Li family and Yun family are about equally powerful. Yun Dongmei has been married and divorced. She is probably a shame to her family so they will not want to go up against the Li family by protecting her.

”Call Murong Ning and tell her that I have a reward for her. And send an e-mail to Li Shaofeng, tell him that there's news about my sister.”
