The Side Character’s Hidden Boss! - Chapter 98 - A Phone

Chapter 98 – A Phone

Soon a week had pa.s.sed since Mo Li’s jewelry commercial shoot. During this period, neither Nie Li nor Quan Yu came looking for her, they were probably busy.

Mo Li stood at the bus stop and a familiar car drove past her. The car purposely slowed down for Mo Li to see Qiao Qing in the backseat. However, the car soon picked up speed and drove away. This was probably Qiao Qing’s way of showing off. Mo Li was supposed to move back to Mo Family Home that day but clearly Qiao Qing was not going to give her a ride. Regardless, it didn’t affect Mo Li. To be honest, Mo Li preferred taking the bus anyway. She lined up with the other pa.s.sengers and got on the bus.

“Wow, look! Isn’t that Mr. Ferdinand’s latest line?”

“My G.o.d, that model is an angel!”

“The jewelries look perfect on her!”

“Hey! Look at that girl over there, isn’t she the same person as the one inside the commercial?”

“Wait, you might be right! But I can’t tell for sure since she’s not wearing make-up. Based on her clothes, she’s still a student!”

Mo Li raised her head as a response to what the people around her were saying. She was surprised by the large image that appeared on the big screen of Pearl River Pavilion outside the bus.

On an antique bed, a girl was laying seductively. Her back was fully exposed, revealing her slender waist and snow-white back.

The theme for FM this time was seductive charm so Mo Li had a lot of skin showing. She showed off beautiful rubies, tourmaline and amber. The commercial didn’t run long, it was only 36 seconds but it was highly suggestive. The commercial ditty had a strong sense of rhythm. The last frame was a close up of Mo Li’s head wearing the feature of Ferdinand’s latest jewelry line, a princess crown. The commercial had no words but it said many things.

Mo Li stood there as if blinded. That was me? Nie Li didn’t tell me that the commercial will be released within the nation!

Mo Li a.s.sumed the commercial would be released next month. But it was already playing on the screen before her!

“Yes, the girl is definitely the one from the commercial!”

“She is even prettier in person!”

“To think I’ll be able to run into a celebrity in my lifetime.”

Mo Li realized the people on the bus were talking about her…

Mo Li gave a helpless sigh and persevered. Hang in there, my stop is coming up next. Mo Li ignored the other pa.s.sengers who had started to take out their phones.

Mo Li’s action pushed her onto the trending page again.

“The angel is walking among us! Ferdinand’s latest model is seen taking the bus!”

“My poor Brother Jiang Yan, he has lost everything to this Mo Li!”

“The agency needs to wake up and realize what a b.i.t.c.h this woman is!”

“I hear that Mo Li’s agent is Brother Jiang Yan’s agent, Sister Li.”

“The Mo Family is mistreating our Brother Jiang!”

“Nie Li is also a b.i.t.c.h. How come she never give Brother Jiang such good resources before? Why does Mo Li have to enjoy them?”

“You people are just callous. What has the girl done to you?”

“No one really knows the truth. There’s no need to jump to conclusion.”

…

Father Mo and Mother Mo waited at the door. Mo Yun ran downstairs when he saw the family car drive through the gates. He coughed when he arrived at the main hall and pretended like he was just slowly walking down.

To his upset, only Qiao Qing walked in and there was no sign of Mo Li.

Mother Mo hurried to the car. When she saw no one else come out from behind Qiao Qing, she couldn’t hide the disappointment on her face.

“Qing Qing, you’re back. Welcome home, Mo Zheng is waiting for you at his room. By the way, where is Li Li?” Mother Mo ruffled Qiao Qing’s hair as she looked at her apologetically. Even though Qiao Qing was not her biological daughter, she did raise her like her own. Mother Mo did care about Qiao Qing. But for Qiao Qing, that was only a manifestation of Mother Mo’s guilt and pity!

“Big Sister refuses to take the same car with me… I’ve invited her many times but she, she just ignored me.” Qiao Qing sounded pained and aggrieved.

Mother Mo sighed helplessly and let Qiao Qing go and see Mo Zheng.

Mo Zheng was in his wheelchair, reading The Wealth of Nations.

“Brother Zheng!” Qiao Qing greeted him excitedly, pairing it with a bright smile.

“Mind if I borrow your bathroom?” Qiao Qing asked, to which Mo Zheng chuckled and nodded. Qiao Qing placed her schoolbag and phone on the table beside Mo Zheng and then turned into the bathroom. Qiao Qing took her time inside the bathroom until she heard an angry roar from Mo Zheng. Qiao Qing looked at herself in the mirror and she smiled.

Hearing the roar, Auntie Qiu immediately rushed in and she was almost hit by the items Mo Zheng had thrown in his anger.

“You– She–” Mo Zheng’s face and neck were red. Auntie Qiu had no idea what happened. Mo Yun rushed in soon after. He looked around and instantly saw the phone Mo Zheng was holding!

Afraid that Mo Zheng might saw the commercials and news about Mo Li in the entertainment business, the Mo Family had locked up all the electronic products in Mo Zheng’s room. They didn’t want Mo Zheng to have the wrong impression that Mo Li had stolen away his life. After all, she was only doing all these to save Mo Zheng from contract breaching. So how did Mo Zheng end up with a phone in his hand?
