Waking up to the continuous ringing of her alarm, Qingxi felt irritated by her morning schedule.
Given that today was Sunday and she was free, she had decided to go for a quick shopping spree in the mall to buy her necessary clothing.
Yesterday, Director Gu was humble enough to provide her with 65% of her salary. He had asked her to buy some good clothes which she can use next time when she has to go to some Interview kind of thing.
His words were~~
'I agree that you were here for the role of a stunt double and thus wearing these jeans and jacket is okay. But look at your portfolio.
Apart from 2-3 pictures of you in a dress which is also not that good, all your poses are in jeans, shorts, tops, and jackets, not to mention all paired with boots and sports shoes.
With this kind of portfolio, you won't be able to secure a go
Qingxi stopped in front of the person to confirm his identity and he was indeed that person from five years back."Hello? Do you remember me? The girl from five years back?" Qingxi asked, sweetly.The person that turned around was shocked not because he didn't remember her but because she had come to talk to him."Of course miss, I remember you. Weren't you the person who had saved our young master five years back? How can I forget such a beautiful lady like you." He said, bowing respectfully."Hehe...Are you saying this from the bottom of your heart? I think you are just making up the lines. Nevermind. So? Where is he?" Qingxi asked."Don't take it wrongly miss. I am saying all of this from t
Ignoring Juan's wronged face, she turned back to Lu Jingzhe."Thanks, big boss for informing me about it. But currently, I am playing the role of stunt double in director Gu's film. So I won't be able to sign any kind of contract till I am free from there." Qingxi said as they entered a nearby restaurant to have lunch."Director Gu's film?" Juan asked, getting interested."Yeah! When I couldn't clear the round at Star high as I had thought, I started searching for other roles. And then I saw a vacancy of stunt double in his film, and then I went to do the role." Qingxi explained as she sipped on her water."What do you want to order?" Jingzhe asked, opening the menu."Anything vegetarian is fi
In city F, inside a posh building, a man dressed in a blue suit was sitting inside his office, in front of a window."Boss there is a message from her. Should I deliver it now or come later?" His secretary asked as he saw his boss gazing out of the window, with a distant look in his eyes."What is it?" He asked, taking a puff from his cigar."It's not directly from her but him. They said not to disturb her. She is there to build a future for herself. So we should not approach her and interrupt her work." His secretary said fearfully."Future? Does she need to make more strong future than she already has? If she just says yes, to any proposal she gets for marriage on daily basis, her future will be already stronger. Besides, does my proposal not look g
Feeling a bit under the weather, Lu Jingzhe headed straight towards his house after completing the meeting.Seeing his brother who had arrived earlier today from his office, Juan squinted his eyes before asking carefully,"Is everything alright brother?""I don't think that Qingxi likes me...I got rejected." Jingzhe said, slumping on the sofa in his living room."What do you mean by that?" Juan asked."I asked her to shift her stuff in my house and she rejected. I understand that...but when I asked about accompanying her to the movie, she rejected me again." He said, massaging the space between his eyebrows."Huh...What do you think br
"You! You are Qingxi!! Yu Qingxi! My dear Xi-xi." Chu Xuelo muttered, standing in shock.Everyone around them was looking at Chu Xuelo as if she has gone mad."I think this stunt double scared her too much.""You are right! I think her fear is messing with her mind now.""Well, who is at fault for that?""Well, it was a shot that was supposed to be perfect on the first go. You can't exactly blame our stunt double.""Can't blame? Even we were having a hard time following her.""Well, this stunt girl shouldn't have scared her that much."Everyone started whispering randomly.However, the protagonist of the scene was just standing there looking at Chu Xuelo with saddened eyes."I am sorry, I think you got the wrong person," Qingxi said before picking her jacket from the backseat of the car. She st
Staring at the ceiling, Qingxi was thinking about how mundane her life had been past these few days.Apart from the fact that she acted as a stunt double, there was no particular joy in her life.She slept for 3 hours straight after her brother Jones left and was laying on her bed for the past 46 minutes thinking about her mundane days.She looked at the time, one more time before huffing annoyingly.Picking up her phone in her hand she started browsing through entertainment news and didn't found anything new.'Okay...So my sister is having the fun of her life and is almost at heights and here I am sulking on my mundane life. Just wow!' Qingxi grumbled.Flailing her legs in the air anno
Looking down at the hands that were holding her, Qingxi first frowned before smiling pleasantly."Hey, there Lil boy," Qingxi said, coaxing the little boy who had stopped her.Jumping down from the stage, she picked up the boy in her arms before settling at her previous seat.The man that was sitting on that seat before had left immediately after her song finished, and thus, she was alone now.Lu Jing looked at the pretty aunt fondly before scrunching his eyebrows in frustration. He pointed towards his seat before running away.Qingxi looked at the boy amused and wondered who was dick-headed enough to bring a kid to a place like this.
Waking up on a hospital bed, Qingxi squinted her eyes to stop her eyesight from becoming hazy, again and again.The first thing that she noticed in the room was a soft bunny-like child, holding her hand and sleeping in the chair beside her.It was the same kid she had tried to save the previous night.'The previous night. Uhhh....what the hell happened yesterday.' Qingxi groaned as she felt her head throbbing with pain.The memories from yesterday night came crawling like a wave of tsunami.Feeling her throat tightening, she removed her hand gently from the little bunny's grasp and carefully sat.Using her free hand that was not attached to the needle, she picked the glass of water before chugging from it.
"Qingxi, don't be naughty. You have not recovered fully." Lu Jingzhe said as Qingxi tried to come on top of him again."It's been four months since that incident happened. Do you not want to love me?" Qingxi asked as she roamed her leg up and down Lu Jingzhe's body coquettishly."I want to love you, heck I have been thinking about it for a year now. But your health will always be a priority for me.""Please? Just give me some?" Qingxi said as she tried to seduce Lu Jingzhe, who wasn't even allowing her to kiss him.It was their wedding night today.When Qingxi had woken that day after the long operation, the first thing that Lu Jingzhe had asked Qingxi was to get married, but Qingxi had denied him once again.She said she was just blooming in her career, and it will be too much hard work for her to keep their marriage hidden.But Lu Jingzhe this time was adamant about marrying her, and because of that, he used the only way he coul
"No! QINGXI!" Lu Jingzhe, who was too shocked to react earlier, shouted when he saw her falling to the ground like a lifeless doll.Blood was oozing out of her stomach and her complexion was turning paler by each second.Picking her up bridal style, he placed her inside the car before he took out his jacket and wrapped it around her torso. The last time when she had gotten hurt, things were not so severe, and thus, he wasn't feeling so bad at that time, but now that she was shot straight into the stomach, he knew it was life-threatening."Drive faster!" Lu Jingzhe yelled, and it was not long before they stopped in front of a large hospital.Lu Jing, whose eyes were closed didn't know what was happening, but he knew that he is to only open his eyes when his pretty aunt says so, and thus, he kept his eyes closed.As Lu Jingzhe helped Qingxi on a stretcher, Lu Jing heard his dad saying to the doctor,"She was shot in the stomach. Please sav
As soon as Lu Jingzhe received the call from Qingxi, he asked his team, which is always available for any mission, to get ready immediately. Passing them the approximate location that Qingxi had sent, he couldn't help but feel like something bad was about to happen.He didn't want to repeat what happened three years back with his brother and couldn't help but close his eyes as he prayed to God to keep both of them safe."We don't know how many are there and who are they or who had ordered them to do this kidnapping. I want you to guys focus on the safety of my kid that you have already seen many times and a woman who is going to be your lady boss soon. They are to be protected more than how you guys protect me." Lu Jingzhe said before taking out his phone and showing them the picture.All of them saw the picture and nodded as they had remembered the girl. As they were moving, one of the men who was sitting along with Lu Jingzhe and bodyguard Cheng couldn't
"Lu Jingzhe, wake up! Today is Sunday. I had promised Lu Jing to take him out to play on Sundays. Have you forgotten about it?" Qingxi said while almost jumping on top of him."Mmm...come here. Let me sleep more. I rarely get such a good sleep. I think I should start sleeping with you more often to get a good sleep." Lu Jingzhe said while pulling her on top of him again."Lu Jingzhe, we will discuss these things later. First, hurry up and get ready. We need to go to the old mansion." Qingxi coaxed."AHH...I forgot to tell you. I can't accompany you guys today. I have a very urgent meeting today. I am sorry." Lu Jingzhe said solemnly."What are you feeling sorry for? You have work, it's important, we understand." Qingxi said before pecking his lips softly."Mmm..don't tempt me with these kisses. I am already aroused early in the morning, I am afraid if I start kissing you, you won't be to see Lu Jing for the next whole week, let alone today."
"Lu Jingzhe! I am not able to zip the chain with only one hand! Come here this instant!" Qingxi shouted from her room, and her voice echoed in the whole house.It had been one month since the incident with her falling down the stairs happened. The plaster from her hand was already removed, but it doesn't mean she was good to go and was able to do things easily like she used to do earlier.In this one month, Qingxi has almost turned Lu Jingzhe into her maid, she would call him back and forth for even work as small as picking up a fallen spoon.When butler Ho Chen came to know about Qingxi's condition and injury, he had suggested hiring a personal nurse or appoint a maid to miss Qingxi, who will tend to all of her demands but Lu Jingzhe had denied them saying, all if this happened because he couldn't take care of her properly, and now he wants to make up for it by personally taking care of her.And to say Miss Qingxi had made his work harder wou
Placing her in the back seat of his car, Lu Jingzhe hurriedly came to sit in front before starting the car to drive to the nearest hospital as soon as possible.He could see his car seats getting dirty by Qingxi's blood and couldn't help but curse out aloud.It wasn't the car seats that he was anxious about. He was anxious about the amount of blood Qingxi was losing.After 10 minutes of driving with his heart beating at a faster pace than his car was going. He finally parked his car in front of a hospital.Picking her up bridal style, he ran inside the hospital before yelling,"Doctor!! Doctor!!" By this time, he has already thrown his mask and couldn't care less about hiding his identity or anything. The thing that he was more scared about was Qingxi's health."Qingxi! Wake up! Don't close your eyes! Didn't you say you will be staying by my side for the rest of my life as a friend, if not as a wife? I want a healthy friend,
Meanwhile, Qingxi and her family were having a joyous celebration and heart-to-heart talks, the news about Qingxi being the next heir of Xu league enterprise and the real granddaughter of General Yun Bing spread in the country like fire spreads in a bundle of dry leaves.Almost every other netizens were talking about her. Not only she had gained popularity in the entertainment circle because of the rumors clearing and Xialing's tricks, but also in the business circle since she was declared as the sole heir of such a big enterprise.Inside Luo's mansion, when Luo Lin Che saw the news about Qingxi being the real granddaughter of General Yun Bing, she felt like falling to the ground from sky-high.She has always asked her husband (Qingxi's real father) about his family, and their status but every time she would ask him that, he would always turn the question in a different direction.When Luo Lin Che married Qingxi's father, it wasn't because she
"So, she is your granddaughter?" Lu Jingzhe's grandfather asked to confirm his doubts.It was only after he asked that, did the Yun family realized that they were not alone and had company."Is there anyone in the world that I can love more than I love her?" Grandpa Ying Bing said, making Qingxi smile when she suddenly remembered something."Wait, you guys know each other? And why are you guys acting so civil? Shouldn't you be like avoiding each other and fighting each other? If you have a feud between yourselves then don't hide it, no one is here anymore." Qingxi asked, and everyone looks at her quizzically."Jingzhe, I know you stayed because you were scared for me, not knowing the whole truth, but now that you know the truth, you guys can leave. You don't have to sit with your enemies just because you guys care for me. And same is for grandpa Yun bing. If you don't like them, then you don't have to sit here just because I am associated with their
"I can explain," Qingxi said as she looked in the eyes of not only one person but four people who were standing there and gazing at her with a complicated expression. The most prominent of that of General Yun Bing, who was gazing at her with anger."You brat! Come right here! Let me teach you a good lesson. How dare you!" General Yun Bing hollered, and Qingxi, who was too shocked to react, looked at master Xu with accusing eyes."Hadn't I mentioned not to call General Yun Bing and his family to the party?" Qingxi asked as she looked at the people in front of her with a worried expression."I knew you told me to not call him, but I couldn't contain in the temptation and didn't want to miss the fun and such an explicit scene of you being reprimanded by someone. You already had your share making things hard for me, now it's my turn.Don't I know that the only person you fear after your dad is your grandfather. Also, he is my best friend. Do
