Huayu: Little Flower, please place your order.

Chapter 26: Come on, let me give you something even more exciting!

That year, Li Mo's career seemed poised to soar to great heights. He terminated his contract with the company, and I gradually drifted apart from him.

The budding feelings between the two ultimately couldn't withstand the gap in reality, which is truly regrettable in retrospect.

Li Mo's later career did not go smoothly. He did not write another masterpiece like "Nanshan Nan", nor did he receive another hit drama like "Gu Jian Qi Tan", and his popularity gradually faded.

Years later, when someone asked me what the regret of *Gu Jian Qi Tan* was, my answer was that Ling Yue and Fu Qu needed a kiss to put an end to their story.

[Ling Yue and Fu Qu are also Reba and Li Mo, give her the kiss that belongs to her! —Reba, ordering in 2026]

The night was quite dark tonight, with only a few stars visible, and the streetlights along the street remained steadfast in the darkness.

Li Mo didn't turn on the lights in the room as he pondered the information about the order he had just placed.

Through the request just now, Li Mo glimpsed a glimpse of the future from a secretive perspective.

The future of Li Mo should be defined by removing the element of entrustment and referring to Li Mo's normal development.

The evidence is that the commission stated that he had not written another masterpiece like "Nanshan Nan", but he has now clearly obtained "The Ordinary Road".

It just hasn't been published yet.

Moreover, because Li Mo rejected Huanrui, Jiaxing, and Canxing, Li Mo's future development will indeed not be very prestigious.

After all, Qin Lan only has freedom and cooperation; everything else is...

It seems Li Mo needs to work even harder from now on!

As for the hot bar...

She couldn't do what Yang Chaoyue did, regardless of the differences between their careers. No matter how fast his career developed, he only paid me three thousand.

Moreover, Yang Chaoyue boasted that he and Li Mo had known each other since they were both humble beginnings, so of course they were irreplaceable.

Therefore, she didn't care about these differences at all.

It's probably because she doesn't have a career at all!

But it was precisely because of Reba's little schemes that her career took off in the future, and that she always felt regret towards Li Mo.

"Once this task is completed, we'll need to handle the rest!"

Then, Li Mo got up in the darkness, walked out of the room, and headed towards the director's room.

Oh, and he also brought a bottle of Moutai with him.

I got it from Qin Lan last time, and it came in handy this time.

"Director Luo, to be honest, I've been on set for a month, and I've seen how well you've taken care of me. I sincerely thank you. We haven't had a drink together privately, that's my fault, I'll take a penalty!"

Inside the director's room, Li Mo and Director Luo sat on the sofa, having already begun to confide in each other.

The dishes were ordered from the hotel; they were mostly appetizers, nothing fancy, but that was enough.

"Little Li, are you truly grateful to me?"

Director Luo frowned as he looked at Li Mo, who had downed the drink in one gulp, and said suspiciously.

Director Luo is much older than Li Mo, so calling him "Little Li" is perfectly fine.

"Hey, Director Luo, what are you saying? My gratitude towards you is genuine, isn't it?"

Director Luo smacked his lips.

"Maybe! You've punished yourself more than ten times since you came in, but the thing is, it's just the two of us in this room, and I haven't punished you! Who can stand it when you keep punishing yourself?"

"Are you dissatisfied with me? Then I didn't punish you enough. I'll punish you again!"

Li Mo reached for the Moutai, but Director Luo slapped his hand away, laughing and scolding:

"You idiot, stop trying to scam drinks!"

Li Mo and Director Luo looked at each other and burst into laughter. Only Li Mo was so mischievous as to dare to act like that with Director Luo. Li Yifeng was still very proper when he saw Director Luo.

After all, he's not famous yet.

In reality, no matter what Li Mo is like, he wouldn't be so reluctant to part with a bottle of Moutai. And no matter what Director Luo is like, after so many years as a director, he wouldn't be so stingy as to fight over a bottle of Moutai.

The two were just joking around; some things are better eaten when you fight for them.

"So, you've come to see me at this hour because you need something?"

Director Luo picked up a piece of food, glanced at the time, and decided to go to sleep after drinking until he was almost done, as he had work to do tomorrow.

Li Mo noticed this detail about Director Luo, so instead of answering Director Luo's question, he changed the subject:

"Director Luo, you've directed so many films, what kind of actor do you dislike the most?"

As people get older, what they love most is reminiscing, and Director Luo became quite animated when the conversation turned to this point.

"If you're talking about people you dislike, there are many, but if you're talking about people you dislike the most, then it would be actors who are too famous."

"Why is that?" Li Mo asked, somewhat surprised, as he picked up a piece of food.

"You're new to this industry, so there are some things you naturally don't know. Let me ask you, do you know who has the most power on a film set?"

"Director? Or producer?"

Director Luo shook his head and imparted his social experience to Li Mo.

"None of that! The power dynamic within a film crew is never fixed!"

"The person the investors value has the most power. If they value the director, then the director has the most power; if they value the actors, then the actors have the most power."

"The reason why those famous actors are disliked is precisely this: they have too much power, know nothing, are extremely egotistical, and constantly want to arbitrarily change scripts and filming schedules..."

Director Luo then gave Li Mo many examples, and also talked about some scenes that had been ruined by the actors.

However, Li Mo felt that this guy had opened his third eye, was he hinting at something to him?

"Especially when it comes to kissing scenes, some want to be added, while others absolutely refuse to have any at all. It's such a hassle! Oh, we almost went off-topic. What brings you here?"

Haha... People really do laugh when they're speechless.

Since you've said that, how could I possibly be in any trouble?

Li Mo gave a speechless look. "It's okay, it's okay! Keep drinking!"

Director Luo glanced at the time again, put down his wine glass, and patted Li Mo on the shoulder.

"I'm not drinking anymore, it's getting late, we have a show tomorrow. Do your best, I have high hopes for you!"

Seeing this, how could Li Mo let him retreat?

He hurriedly grabbed the Moutai and refilled Director Luo's glass, saying, "Don't be like that, Director Luo, this is just the beginning, this is the last glass!"

Then, without giving Director Luo a chance to speak, he started rambling on and on.

"Let me tell you... do you know Yang Mi's several quirks? Wow, they're really something! Finish this drink and I'll tell you..."

"Another drink! Another one so we can chat some more... about Huo Siyan, yes, about her. I'll give you something really exciting!"

"And then... don't rush, there's Li Xiaolu too..."

At three in the morning, as dawn broke, Director Luo, being of advanced age, found it difficult to stay up all night, and the added alcohol consumption made it even harder for him to keep going.

Li Mo even made a point of slowing him down to drink, saying that it's the dull knife that hurts the most when it cuts flesh.

Until now, Director Luo finally couldn't hold on any longer.

"Li Mo, I've been listening all night, and I don't even know what I've been listening to, but I really can't take it anymore. What do you want? Can you just tell me?"

"Add a kissing scene!"

"You little rascal, didn't I tell you..."

"I still have a little bit..."

"I can consider it!"
