Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion Chapter 225

Chapter 225 - Wei Zhiqian Finds Out

At around 9:00 pm that night, Tan Mo finally completed two more episodes.

She had originally intended to finish just one-and-a-half episodes. However, after some contemplation, she gritted her teeth and powered on to finish the third episode.

After she’d finished writing, Tan Mo skimmed through it once more to check for any errors.

“Uncle, what do you think of these two episodes?” Wei Zhiqian had read the script while Tan Mo wrote.

The moment Tan Mo finished writing, Wei Zhiqian had also finished reading through her work.

“If I were the audience, I would definitely want to continue watching this show.” Wei Zhiqian watched as Tan Mo saved the file. Then she sent it to Director Liu via email.

“You aren’t saying that just to flatter me, right?” Tan Mo grinned happily at Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian tapped the tip of her nose.

Judging from Tan Mo’s expression, he could tell that she believed him. She didn’t have any doubts.

“I never flatter people when it comes to such serious matters.” Wei Zhiqian tilted his chin up slightly. He did so in such a candid manner.

“Judging from the script that I’ve read alone, I can tell that the show moves at a fast pace. The conversations between the characters are very well staged. Their conversations are meaningful, not at all superficial,” Wei Zhiqian continued. “The conversations are also very appropriate for their relevant characters. None of the characters are too overpowering. As the leads probe and sound out each other, their doubts and misgivings are evident through their speeches. What’s more, the decisions they make are firm and resolute.

“The manner in which the wives speak fits perfectly into the context of the time they are living in. Back in those days, the wives had to adapt to their times and environment. They also had to deal with all the changes around them, as well as the cruelty of war. Most important, they had to bear the responsibility of assisting their husbands. If they didn’t adhere to all these rules, they could meet ruthless consequences.

“There aren’t many productions like this. If it is filmed well, it will allow the audience to rediscover that particular era. Nowadays, most of the historical dramas are focused on the harem politics in the palace. Although they illustrate beauty, they lack vigor. They give the audience a misperception, and they might assume that women in historical times were merely involved in petty harem politics.” Wei Zhiqian explained his point of view.

“However, the women in different time periods live in different kinds of environments. This particular series should be able to portray the capabilities of women well.”

Tan Mo propped her chin up with her hand. “Uncle is the best.”

He wasn’t a misogynist who looked down on the female gender.

He was a capable and refined man. Yet he wasn’t an arrogant and proud person.

Naturally, her three brothers and her father were such people as well.

If her future suitors were not like this, she wouldn’t fancy them at all.

“I shall wash my face now. I’ll take a shower tomorrow morning.” Tan Mo yawned.

It had been such a tiring day.

She had slept a total of three hours the night before. Her remaining time had been spent engaging in work that required a lot of thinking.

Her work for the day was finally completed. Tan Mo relaxed and realized that her head ached a little. She was extremely fatigued and didn’t feel like moving at all. She yearned for a good night’s rest.

She wouldn’t even have had the energy to wash up. However, she was worried that Wei Zhiqian would find her dirty and unhygienic.

“Go on.” Wei Zhiqian closed her notebook. Tan Mo went to the bathroom to wash up.

It was just as Wei Zhiqian had said. If Tan Mo tried to use her healing ability on herself, it would be analogous to tearing down the east wall to build up the west wall: a futile effort.

In the end, she would merely be transferring her bodily reserves from one part to another.

Tan Mo was currently in a state of extreme lethargy. It was an aftereffect of the day and night she’d just been through.

Even the dark circles below her eyes had reappeared due to her current weakness.

While Tan Mo was in the bathroom, the doorbell to her room rang.

Wei Zhiqian went to open the door. Director Liu and Tan Jinqi were standing outside.

“I just received the scripts for the second and third episodes from Tan Mo.” Director Liu strode into the room as he spoke. “She managed to write them so quickly?”

“After seeing Professor Zhao off, Mo Mo spent her entire day writing the scripts in her room. She sent them to you right after she finished writing them and checking them through.” Wei Zhiqian sounded a little angry when he said this. His tone of voice became a little more solemn.

Naturally, he wasn’t angry at Tan Mo. On the contrary, he was a little upset at Director Liu and Tan Jinqi.

For exhausting Tan Mo.

Especially Director Liu.

He had failed to oversee the script, allowing mistakes to slip through.

Now Tan Mo had to help pull him out of this mess. Good for him.

“Mo Mo said that she would try her best to write as much as she can before school starts. This way, you would be able to start filming” Wei Zhiqian did not forget to reveal how hard Tan Mo had worked.

Tan Mo did indeed receive compensation for being the adviser. She was also being remunerated for writing the script.

However, not many people would work as hard as Tan Mo, even if they were being paid.

Director Liu was exceedingly lucky to have met Tan Mo.

When Director Liu heard all this, his heart was moved. He instantly felt a sense of gratitude, appreciation, and guilt wash over him all at once. His feelings were rather complex, and he didn’t know what to say.

“Originally, I’d intended to have at least three or four episodes worth of scripts prepared in advance before I started filming. That alone would have been marvelous,” Director Liu said emotionally.

Tan Mo walked out in a daze. Because she was so exhausted, she had not heard their conversation.

Her bright eyes had lost their luster, and they appeared completely blank at that moment.

It was almost as though she had been hypnotized. Her eyes were staring straight ahead but her feet strayed sideways. Her shoulders bumped into the wall.

Wei Zhiqian and Tan Jinqi rushed over simultaneously.

They supported Tan Mo, one on each side.

“Why are you exhausted to such a degree?” Although Wei Zhiqian didn’t know, Tan Jinqi and Director Liu were completely aware of the truth.

Director Liu blamed himself. “In order to rush the script for the first episode, she only had three hours of sleep yesterday. Yet, she did such intensive work today. This is why she is so exhausted.”

Tan Mo snapped out of her stupor.

“I’m fine, I’m fine!” Oh dear! Wei Zhiqian shouldn’t know about this.

She hadn’t wanted him to know that she was hiding it from him. She hadn’t dared to say it.

Even Tan Jinqi had kept it to himself.

“Is this how you’re taking care of Mo Mo?” Wei Zhiqian interrogated Tan Jinqi icily.

Tan Jinqi sighed. “I failed to take care of her although it was my responsibility.”

Wei Zhiqian harrumphed coldly. His face became frosty as he picked Tan Mo up.

He didn’t need Tan Jinqi to hold her.

He placed Tan Mo on the bed. When Tan Mo caught sight of his unprecedentedly icy face, she quickly shot out her arm and tugged at Wei Zhiqian’s clothes.

“Uncle, don’t be angry.” Tan Mo’s tiny hand grasped onto his clothes tightly. Her voice was soft and mellow. “Those were special circumstances. It won’t happen from today onward. I will start getting sufficient rest. I will sleep early and wake up early just like before.

Wei Zhiqian lowered his voice as he said, “You clearly knew that you were not well rested. Yet you still used your…”

Powers.

Wei Zhiqian didn’t say this out loud.

But Tan Mo understood what he was trying to say.

Wei Zhiqian was angry about this.

Her powers would consume her physical reserves.

Since her reserves were low and her powers had been consumed, it would only make her more lethargic. If she didn’t take care of herself, she might even fall ill.

“Am I someone who would stop you when you’re working hard?” Wei Zhiqian uttered in a low voice. “Everyone will have busy periods in their lives, and everyone might have to work overtime. Even I do. Even though you care about me, you certainly wouldn’t stop me from doing my work. Naturally, I won’t stop you either. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have allowed you to attend school in the day and study with me at night back in the day.”
