CHAPTER 55: CHAPTER 55 THE ELDEST DISCIPLE’S 2ND DISCIPLE? HELP ME PERFORM A PLAY!

Los Angeles.

"Anne, I’m not trying to pressure you, but can you make some concessions on certain things?"

"I just want to make movies properly, I’m not interested in anything else."

"Alright, I understand."

"I’m sorry."

"Don’t say that, you haven’t done anything wrong."

"Thank you for understanding."

Anne Hathaway ended a phone call with her agent in her rented apartment.

She knew Hollywood had its own rules.

But she wanted to stick to her own principles.

Even if it meant losing some opportunities, she didn’t care.

Fortunately, Anne Hathaway’s popularity is even higher than when The Princess Diaries was released.

There are quite a few opportunities.

Yet Anne herself is quite worried.

Her current high popularity is entirely because of the Beautiful Suffering reality show.

But she could only make it to the top four in this reality show.

Anne is worried that once the reality show ends, The Princess Diaries 2 will be released.

She is completely sure that this sequel is rubbish.

When the movie releases, it’s bound to receive bad reviews.

The high popularity that Anne Hathaway has just built up.

It’s very likely to collapse.

What should she do then?

It seems like she can only hope for the new movie to succeed.

But the scripts she’s seen so far are pretty mediocre.

Her popularity and fame aren’t big enough yet to receive invitations from well-known directors.

So Anne fell into anxiety about the future again.

What should she do?

After thinking it over, she glanced at that pendant.

Actually, Anne never thought about chasing her dream in Hollywood.

Her dream back then was to become a nun.

To dedicate everything to God.

A pure girl from a traditional family, such a thought is not strange.

But never did she expect that one day the girl’s faith would collapse.

Mai Ke, her brother.

He ended up liking men.

For a traditional family, this is a devastating blow.

God could never tolerate such behavior.

The girl knew she was not worthy of serving God.

So she had to return to the mundane world.

Yet she had formed her own beliefs.

She would never sell her body for some purposes.

This is also why she missed many good opportunities.

But she couldn’t help thinking of that kiss.

It’s not like she hasn’t kissed before, but in the elevator, with that guy.

Really strange.

Maybe it’s because she needed comfort at that time.

She thought of something sad then.

But then, she inexplicably thought of Zhou Mo Sen, Dr. Zhou.

This man is very clever, very capable.

The success of Beautiful Suffering in ratings is because of him.

By this reasoning.

Anne Hathaway’s current high popularity is also because of him.

Yes, even though Anne and Zhou Mo Sen are still in a hostile state.

One can’t deny this point.

But... are they really hostile?

Why would such a thought come up?

Anne shook her head, she didn’t want to keep thinking about Zhou Mo Sen.

At this moment, that guy might be with some slut...

Humph! Don’t want to think about him!

...

If a car breaks down.

It’s probably a problem with the engine.

To fix the engine, you have to open the hood.

Check properly where the problem is.

The engine cylinder is basically a piston motion.

The piston movement starts slow.

Then keeps speeding up.

If there’s no problem here, check the fuel nozzle.

If it doesn’t spray well, it might cause serious trouble.

Zhou Mo Sen is a doctor, he doesn’t really understand car repairs.

He keeps learning and improves his skills.

But seeing Megan Fox’s smile.

Seems like he did a pretty good job of fixing it.

Megan Fox is really ambitious.

At least she’s like an off-road vehicle.

Zhou Mo Sen found it quite strenuous to fix it.

Thankfully, Dr. Zhou has some talent.

Megan Fox calmed her heartbeat, leaning in Dr. Zhou’s arms.

"The final winner is Kim Kardashian, right?"

She expected this result, which didn’t surprise Zhou Mo Sen.

"Isn’t it obvious?"

Yes, Kim Kardashian is the daughter of producer Chris.

With this kind of relationship, who else could be the winner?

But Megan was a bit unwilling, "If I had a producer as a mom, I’d be a winner too!"

Zhou Mo Sen heard the deeper meaning in her words, smiled and ruffled her hair, saying, "Looking for a backer?"

Hearing this, Megan couldn’t help but admire Dr. Zhou’s cleverness, so she simply admitted it.

"Of course, without a backer in Hollywood, it’s really hard to survive."

But Zhou Mo Sen said, "Unfortunately, I’m just a doctor."

The meaning of that statement is clear, but Megan wasn’t angry after hearing it.

"I understand, but I also greatly admire Dr. Zhou’s intelligence."

Zhou Mo Sen felt this girl had potential and offered some advice.

"You need to understand that showcasing sexiness is fine, but it shouldn’t be easily given."

Megan grasped it immediately. "I get it, in front of Dr. Zhou, I’m a slut, but to others, I’m a sex goddess."

That’s corporate-level understanding.

Zhou Mo Sen laughed, "What you can’t get is always the most attractive."

Megan felt she learned something, very pleased, but she had other ambitions.

"Dr. Zhou, can you make me more beautiful?"

She also had a desire to become more beautiful.

Zhou Mo Sen, however, shook his head with a smile, "That’s a different matter."

I fixed your car, that was promised to help you reach the final round.

But now you want cosmetic surgery.

That’s a different price altogether.

Fixing the car is fixing the car, cosmetic surgery is cosmetic surgery.

Zhou Mo Sen calculated it clearly, with distinct boundaries.

Indeed, he had a heart like iron.

But Megan Fox laughed after hearing this.

"Of course, when I save enough money... Dr. Zhou better not let me down."

In Megan’s world, everything should be clear.

Wanting to become beautiful is a different matter.

She plans to save money, lots of it.

Zhou Mo Sen is the best cosmetic surgeon in her mind, and also whom she trusts the most.

She seeks him to make herself more beautiful.

Zhou Mo Sen naturally perceived Megan’s strong intent to become beautiful.

This inspired him.

"Megan, sometimes you don’t necessarily need a lot of money."

"Huh?"

The girl eagerly wanting to become more beautiful was stirred by this sentence.

Zhou Mo Sen didn’t look at her, as if talking to himself, "If you can follow my advice and change your original lifestyle habits, then you don’t need to spend a lot of money to become beautiful, but..."

He looked at Megan at that moment.

"It will take more time."

Megan felt her heartbeat speed up.

She had said before she would save money.

It would also take a lot of time.

"Whatever you say, I’ll do it! I’m yours!"

Saying that, she even blew a kiss.

Zhou Mo confirmed further that this girl is smart.

"Help me perform a scene?"

"Acting?"

"Yes, I recently encountered a patient."

"Huh? What kind of patient? You still need to act?"

"She doesn’t just want to become beautiful; she wants to pursue some peculiar things. So this show is also a form of therapy."

"Who is it? Should I ask?"

Zhou Mo Sen whispered a few words in Megan’s ear.

The girl laughed heartily upon hearing them.

"It’s her?"

"If you can’t keep the secret..."

"Don’t worry! I won’t say a word!"

Great, now I have a second disciple.

Why is Megan the second disciple?

Of course, because Zhou Mo Sen already has a first disciple.

...

"Wow! It’s so amazing!"

"Dr. Zhou is so sharp-tongued! But I love it!"

"Dr. Zhou isn’t sharp-tongued, okay! He’s very professional!"

"I don’t know why, but I also want to be scolded by Dr. Zhou."

"You wish!"

Daddario has now become a loyal viewer of the reality show "Beautiful Suffering."

Moreover, she doesn’t just watch the show.

After each episode airs, she checks online discussions.

Of course, this is normal in the internet age.

Dr. Zhou is fantastic!

Although, as for contestants, Anne Hathaway is the most popular.

But the one discussed most is Zhou Mo Sen.

Obviously, many girls want to become beautiful.

However, every time she watches the show.

Daddario can’t help but hug her long legs.

And curls up on the chair.

This is a subconscious defensive posture.

Dr. Zhou is indeed very sharp-tongued.

But that’s where his charm lies.

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Huh? Dr. Zhou?

She answered with a smile, unexpectedly...

"How could you leak my secret!"

"Huh? Wh-what secret?"

"Those hand skills were not meant to be shared easily!"

"This... I’m really sorry, I really apologize!"

Daddario suddenly realized.

She had made a big mistake!

That hand exercise should be kept secret... Wait.

This means it’s actually effective?

Now the girl completely trusts Zhou Mo and is actually happy about this.

Then she heard Zhou Mo Sen say on the other side: "No need to apologize, just help me perform a scene."

All she needs to do is perform a scene?

"No problem!"

Dr. Zhou, you’re so nice.
