Abide By the Contract

Liu Xin didn’t want others to see her intentions, so she couldn’t reject Mo Rao. She could only take the cake from Mo Rao’s hand. “Thank you.”

“The recording is about to start again,” Mo Rao said to Tong Yue. “If you want to watch from the side, sit here.”

Tong Yue nodded and went to Mo Rao’s side. “I’ll make you a cake next time.”

“It’s okay. There will be many opportunities in the future.” Mo Rao patted Tong Yue’s shoulder.

Then, she returned to the filming location with Xiao Yan and Liu Xin.

Under Yu Ye’s guidance, Mo Rao’s cooking went much smoother today. She could finally make the crispy skin.

“Ah! It worked!” Mo Rao exclaimed happily after tasting her work.

When Yu Ye heard this, he strode to her side. “Let me try it.”

Mo Rao cut a piece and brought it to Yu Ye’s mouth.

After Yu Ye ate it, he savored it carefully, then he became filled with surprise.

“It tastes very delicious! It’s much better today than yesterday. This should be considered a success.” Yu Ye couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.

Seeing that Mo Rao had successfully made Wellington steak, Xiao Yan walked over and smiled. “Let me try it.”

Mo Rao hurriedly shared it with him.

As Liu Xin watched from afar, she was extremely anxious.

Even until now, she hadn’t successfully made Buddha’s Temptation yet.

Sometimes, she regretted her decision and wanted to change to another dish. However, they had already filmed for nearly two days after all. It wasn’t good to change her mind at the last minute.

Liu Xin looked at the ingredients in her pot unhappily and decided that if she still couldn’t make it, she would find a chef to fake it.

Mo Rao kept some of the successful steaks this time and brought them to Tong Yue.

“Try it. This is my first successful Wellington steak.” Tong Yue had specifically come to visit, so Mo Rao naturally had to share.

Tong Yue took a bite eagerly and said in surprise, “Rao Rao, your culinary skills are amazing! This is the first time I’ve eaten Wellington steak! It’s so delicious!”

Seeing that Tong Yue liked it, Mo Rao smiled. “It’s good that it’s delicious. The next time you come to my house, I’ll make you a big meal.”

Tong Yue was probably the first friend she made in the entertainment industry after returning to the country. Tong Yue was innocent and sincere. It wasn’t easy to meet such a person in the industry, and Mo Rao cherished their friendship.

When the recording was finally over, Mo Rao rushed to the restaurant she had arranged with the organizer of the Fashion Week and planned to discuss the collaboration with him.

When they reached the dining room, Mo Rao immediately saw a fashionable young man leaning against a chair and playing with his phone.

She strode over and greeted with a smile, “Hello, President Xu. I’m Mo Rao.”

After Xu Ke looked up, he stood up and shook Mo Rao’s hand. “Hello, I’m Xu Ke.”

As Mo Rao sat opposite Xu Ke, Xu Ke sized her up the entire time, making Mo Rao feel very uncomfortable.

“Miss Mo, you really live up to your reputation. You’re even prettier in person than on screen.” Xu Ke opened a bottle of red wine with a smile. Then, he picked up the glass in front of Mo Rao to pour wine for her.

Having learned her lesson from before, Mo Rao was very cautious. She said, “Sorry, I don’t drink.”

“Shouldn’t we have a drink when discussing business?” Xu Ke raised his eyebrows and asked.

Mo Rao guessed that Xu Ke probably wanted to persuade her to drink.

For Jiayi’s sake, Mo Rao could only take a deep breath and say, “Then I’ll drink a glass.”

Xu Ke poured a glass of red wine for Mo Rao in satisfaction. After pouring it for himself, he raised his glass and clinked it with Mo Rao’s.

“Let me toast to Miss Mo first,” Xu Ke said. “I know you’re looking for me for a collaboration.”

“President Xu, I think that when doing business, we should abide by the contract. You guys had already reached an agreement with me previously. Why did you change your mind now?” Mo Rao went straight to the point.

As Xu Ke sat on the chair, he crossed his legs and didn’t seem to take what Mo Rao said seriously at all. He said, “The premise is that we have signed the contract. We haven’t signed the contract yet, right? The Shen Corporation is a powerful backer. Of course I have to choose the better one after weighing my options.”

Mo Rao frowned slightly and said, “What if the Shen Corporation plagiarized my company’s plan?”
