Chapter 29: Moving into a new home!

Re Ba is back!

The first thing she did after coming back was to go find Lin Mo.

Well, that's how it is.

Lin Mo finished filming Charlotte's Trouble and was preparing to go to Yanjing to see her.

As it turned out, Re Ba said she herself was about to wrap up.

She told Lin Mo not to come, as his movie's follow-up work was important.

The residential complex Lin Mo rented.

Re Ba was already very familiar with the place.

She had a video call with Lin Mo last night, saying she would return to Mo Du today.

So Lin Mo knew.

It was noon.

Lin Mo had already prepared a table of dishes, just waiting for Re Ba.

Sichuan-Chongqing men, you know.

Out of ten, at least six or seven can cook.

Lin Mo is no exception.

They are just home-cooked meals; although not up to chef standards, they'll do.

The doorbell rang.

"Coming!"

Lin Mo got up to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Re Ba excitedly flung herself into Lin Mo's arms.

"Mo Ge!"

Lin Mo caught her, then gently patted her back, saying, "Come, look at the dishes I made; this tableful of delicious food is just missing the hostess!"

"Wow, smells great!"

Seeing the food, Re Ba's eyes lit up.

Seeing that.

Lin Mo also smiled.

Immediately, he pulled her to sit down.

"Mo Ge, has your movie passed the review?" After sitting down, Re Ba asked curiously.

"Not yet, it's only been a few days, no rush!"

Lin Mo served her some vegetables and said.

"Charlotte's Trouble" has no violations whatsoever.

So Lin Mo isn't worried about the review at all.

"I've already coordinated with the theaters; now I'm just waiting for the review to pass, then I plan to schedule the release for mid-next month!" Lin Mo continued. (Parallel World, movies are filmed fast, reviewed fast, released fast.. don't take it too seriously!)

"Ah? That fast?" Re Ba was also surprised a bit.

"Aren't you waiting for the Spring Festival slot?"

She then asked again.

The Spring Festival slot...

Lin Mo had indeed considered this question.

However, after thinking, he decided against it.

The Spring Festival slot is definitely a clash of titans.

It's all big-name stars, and even Wanda wouldn't give his movie much screen time.

That's just how the entertainment industry is.

The competition is extremely fierce.

Lin Mo is an unknown director with a group of unknown actors.

By then, his movie will be competing against other investors' films.

If his box office is poor, it's no big deal; but if it's a hit, then there'll be a good show to watch...

So...

Lin Mo also couldn't be bothered to fight them for the Spring Festival slot.

Next month, it will be released directly.

As for this time period, how to put it...

Lin Mo feels it's even better than the Spring Festival slot.

First, the New Year is coming up, and those big-investment movies are all waiting for the Spring Festival slot.

So December and January, these two periods.

Basically, there are no big blockbusters.

Lin Mo is fully confident that Charlotte's Trouble can crush those movies.

Upon hearing this, Re Ba thought it made sense; she doesn't care about these details, as long as Lin Mo's movie can be released smoothly.

This time.

Both of them can rest for a long time.

So naturally they have time to cuddle together.

Recently.

Lin Mo is ready to change apartments.

After all, he now has money.

He definitely ought to treat himself better.

He hasn't actually considered buying yet.

After all, this is Mo Du, where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold.

He still doesn't have that much money now.

So.

Over the next few days, Lin Mo and Re Ba went to look at apartments.

The follow-up work on the movie has all been done.

They're just waiting for the film to pass review.

Lin Mo is completely free now, with plenty of time.

The apartment was found for them by Yang Mi.

It's right in the upscale community where she lives, this neighborhood is full of stars—people like Chen He and Deng Chao live here too.

That's enough to prove its safety, and its privacy is still quite high.

Otherwise.

How could all these big stars possibly choose to live here?

Lin Mo doesn't mind either way, but Re Ba is overjoyed—being able to live with the one she loves and also be closer to Mi Jie, how great is that!

After the apartment was secured, they moved in the same day.

Re Ba also said she wanted to hold a housewarming party.

And the guests invited were

none other than Yang Mi herself.

the dishes personally cooked by Lin Mo and Re Ba.

By evening.

After Yang Mi arrived,

she saw the young couple's life.

To be honest.

she felt a little envious inside.

But.

Yang Mi is someone who places great importance on her career.

She is preparing to start her own company next year.

Career comes first; as for lovey-dovey stuff, she can set it aside.

"Come, let's celebrate your move into the new home—cheers!"

Yang Mi raised her cup generously, Lin Mo and Re Ba smiled and responded; although the cups held only drinks, the atmosphere was just as lively.

"I've tried Re Ba's cooking a few times, but Boss Lin, this is my first time trying your dishes—I'll see how they taste!"

Yang Mi took a bite, her eyes lit up: "Oh my, Lin Mo, your cooking skills are no joke—if you quit directing and become a chef, that's also a viable path!"

Re Ba chimed in with a smile: "Mi Jie, Mo Ge's cooking is way better than mine!"

Lin Mo just laughed and shook his head, saying nothing.

After tasting it, Yang Mi sincerely gave a thumbs-up: "Not bad at all, Boss Lin—your cooking is almost as good as my idol, Tingfeng Ge!"

"Tingfeng Ge," Lin Mo said, showing interest, "I've also watched his show *Twelve Flavors of Tingfeng*, Mi Jie—tell me, how is his cooking really?"

Last year.

Xie Tingfeng filmed a reality show called *Twelve Flavors of Tingfeng*, which was quite popular.

As everyone knows, Yang Mi's idol is Xie Tingfeng, so she was also invited to participate in that show.

Re Ba also leaned over curiously: "Right, right, Mi Jie, tell me—whose cooking is better, Mo Ge's or Tingfeng Ge's?"

Yang Mi put down her chopsticks, thought for a moment, and said: "Well, Tingfeng Ge's cooking is indeed skilled, the taste is great, and I also love Lin Mo's dishes—each has its own merits."

The show *Twelve Flavors of Tingfeng* has hyped up Xie Tingfeng's cooking to the skies.

From Yang Mi's words, Lin Mo also got a rough idea of Tingfeng Ge's actual skill level.

It's certainly not bad to eat, but it's only slightly better than average, still lacking compared to a professional chef.

Changing the subject, Yang Mi then brought up Lin Mo's movie *Charlotte's Trouble*.

When Yang Mi heard that Lin Mo didn't plan to release during the Spring Festival slot but instead chose next month, she and Re Ba both felt surprised.

"Mi Jie, Mo Ge said the Spring Festival slot is definitely a battle of the gods—if his movie were to blow up at the box office, it would offend people, so he chose to release it next month..."

Re Ba was like a parrot, repeating exactly what Lin Mo had said before.

Upon hearing it, Yang Mi immediately understood; she's a sharp person, and she praised Lin Mo's consideration without reservation.

The three ate and chatted, the atmosphere warm and pleasant.
