Chapter 461: Good news? Could it be that you

At this moment.

On the other side.

Inside a hot pot restaurant in Hengdian, Bai Lu was having hot pot with her close friend Hehe, scooping beef tripe; the private room was steaming, the red oil of the hot pot bubbling, making Bai Lu's cheeks flush red.

She got off work early today, had no night shoot, and with this weather, she had been craving this hot pot for a while.

Although, as a female celebrity, she really needs to watch her weight.

But...

She was really craving this.

But she had begged Hehe for a long time, and Hehe finally agreed.

As her close friend and personal assistant, Hehe naturally had to keep Bai Lu's weight in check.

;"Oh my god!"; Bai Lu suddenly stuck out her tongue from the spiciness, fumbling to grab the iced sour plum soup,;"This broth, are you trying to murder your close friend?";

Hehe wickedly scooped the last slice of beef tripe into her bowl:;"This is what you said you wanted to challenge the extra spicy, don't chicken out, Bai Laoshi~";

Bai Lu was about to retort when her phone suddenly vibrated.

Seeing the caller ID show Re Ba, her eyes lit up, she hurriedly pressed the answer button and casually opened the video call.

;"Lulu! Great, you're secretly eating hot pot behind my back!"; the phone screen instantly showed Re Ba's puffed‑up face, the background behind her clearly a luxurious living room.

Bai Lu quickly pointed the camera at the bubbling red‑oil pot:;"Oh dear, baby, it's not that I'm too far from you, otherwise I would have called you first!";

She suddenly turned the camera to her chili‑oil‑smeared mouth corner, made a funny face:;"Look, the spiciness ruined my makeup!";

Re Ba laughed doubled over on the other end of the screen, then she mysteriously sold a hook: "I've got some good news to tell you~"

Bai Lu instantly put down her chopsticks, leaned toward the phone:;"What good news? No way..."; her eyes suddenly widened:;"You're going to be a mum?!?";

;"Nonsense!"; Re Ba's face instantly reddened to her ears, she quickly changed the topic:;"There's a drama I think suits you well, it's a joint production of CCTV and Morning Light~";

Bai Lu's chopsticks made a "pat" sound and fell onto the table.

Hehe hurriedly handed over a tissue, but she grabbed his wrist:;"Wait wait wait! Baby, say it again? The drama jointly produced by Morning Light and CCTV?";

Re Ba proudly shook her head, her bunny ears twitching:;"My husband said, let you go straight for the audition after the new year~"; she deliberately drew out the tone:;"Just go through the motions~"

;"Ahhh!"; Bai Lu jumped up from her chair:;"Re Ba I love you! Director Lin, long live!";

She excitedly kissed the phone screen several times.

CCTV+Morning Light!!!

This script's popularity and quality are absolutely top‑tier!

;"The lead female in a serious drama~"; Re Ba blinked:;"Have you figured out how to thank me yet?";

;"My young lady~"; Bai Lu smiled, eyes crinkling:;"You can eat whatever you want, and if you want me too——"

Upon hearing Bai Lu's words, Re Ba's eyes widened instantly:;"Bai Mengyan! Stop fooling around here!";

"Haha!"

On the video call, Bai Lu was smiling happily.

Meanwhile, on this side.

Lin Mo naturally could also hear Bai Lu and Re Ba's conversation.

But he was used to it.

After all, Re Ba and Bai Lu often video chat.

"All right, all right, I won't keep you from eating. You'd better watch your image—if someone catches it and it spreads, there'll probably be a new meme. I still have saved that big padded‑coat meme of yours, haha, bye‑bye!" After Re Ba said that, she laughed and hung up the video call, leaving no time for Bai Lu to retort.

Bai Lu was about to say something, but saw Re Ba had already hung up the video call.

Meanwhile, Hehe, sitting opposite her, slowly sipped the sour plum soup: "Bai Laoshi, if fans saw you like this...."

Bai Lu suddenly sat up straight, switching in a second to elegant celebrity mode: "Nothing just happened, got it?"

After saying that, she herself broke first, and she and Hehe laughed together.

This side.

"Hahaha, honey, I bet she's furious!" Re Ba laughed like a child.

Lin Mo put down his laptop, reached out to pull Re Ba into his embrace, then laughed and said:;"You're always bullying Bai Lu—watch out, or you'll get cut off!";

"No way! I'm on great terms with Lulu~!" Re Ba rubbed against Lin Mo's embrace, lifting her face like a spoiled kitten: "Besides, if Lulu dares to cut ties with me, I'll have Chairman Lin kick her out of the Northbound Crew!"

Lin Mo was amused by her proud‑and‑coquettish look, pinched her cheeks and said: "Yo, you're now using power for personal gain?"

;"Of course not~"; Re Ba proudly shook her head, the bunny ears on her pajamas twitching:;"Who made me the boss's wife?"; after saying that she couldn't help laughing and collapsed into Lin Mo's arms.

Lin Mo indulgingly rubbed her head:;"Yes yes yes, my boss's wife.";

He glanced at the wall clock:;"But right now, this boss's wife, don't you think it's time for you to attend to the bedchamber~"

Upon hearing that, Re Ba tried to spring from Lin Mo's embrace, but he held her fast.

Cough cough.

As for the following content, due to irresistible forces, 10,000 words are omitted here.

In the coming days.

Lin Mo, after finishing the film, had nothing else to do.

Plus, with the New Year approaching, company staff who should be off are off.

He and Re Ba also went to the mall to buy some New Year goods.

A messy pile of stuff.

Anyway, Re Ba tossed anything she deemed okay into the shopping cart.

The flight on the 27th.

This time they naturally took a private jet.

After all, he didn't want to make a trip home just to be bothered by reporters and sneak back.

However.

Lin Mo however did not know.

He now, ah, his fame is much higher than that of a star.

Besides, in this small place of Lu Zhou, he's the only notable figure one can show off.

A crowd of reporters had already been lying in wait near his residential area.

They were just waiting for Lin Mo to come back.

This scoop must be secured, uh, and the station's leaders have issued a strict order.

So...

When Lin Mo and Re Ba appeared,

The crowd of reporters swarmed over, leaving both of them dazed.

Holy shit, what's happening!
