Once Qingxi was done with using the washroom, she turned around to go towards her table.
Meanwhile, when secretary Han came back and noticed that Miss Qingxi wasn't there. He rushed towards Lu Jingzhe before asking smilingly,
"How did it go?""She said no." Lu Jingzhe said as he was still busy in his thoughts.
"No? So you just got rejected? Why are you smiling then?" He asked further when he looked at his boss's dazed lovesick expression.
"Because she wants me to be her concubine."
"Concubine? And what did you say?"
"I agreed, of course." Lu Jingzhe said proudly.
Secretary han-"..."
Why does it feel like something always goes wrong with his boss's thought processing ability whenever it comes to Qingxi?
"Are you even listening to yourself? What would you do if you heard your friend is his wife's concubine?" Secretary Han said, trying to explain the situation through another method.
"That's no
Once CEO Yan was done eating, he bid goodbye to both Lu Jingzhe and Qingxi, not wanting to ruin their special night. However, he didn't go before he made Qingxi sign a draft agreement that included Qingxi to sing a song for the company within one month starting today.Once, CEO Yan left, Qingxi released a tired breath before smiling sadly at Lu Jingzhe."Sorry for that, I didn't think he would really come. I was just kidding when I sent him the address." Qingxi said apologetically."That's okay. Even I had a meeting scheduled with him. When he came earlier it was all because he saw me here. Meeting you was just a coincidence that occurred altogether." Lu Jingzhe said calmly.Looking at her dejected face, he couldn't help but smile at her."Come here. What was meant to happen, already happened, why spoil your mood now? Let's enjoy the rest of the night." Lu Jingzhe said, and Qingxi shifted her chair near him.Without a warning, he picked her
"You know, I am not pressuring you into anything. I will wait for you to open up to me slowly. Let's not ruin our mood, yeah?" Lu Jingzhe said when he looked at how quiet she has suddenly become, from the moment he mentioned Mystic pearls."Boss, we are here." Secretary Han said, who was quiet the whole ride."Okay." Lu Jingzhe said before pulling Qingxi towards him and taking her in his arms."Let's go." He said as he picked her bridal style again."Close your eyes. I'll tell you when we reach your room." Lu Jingzhe said as he signaled for Secretary han to handle the contract with CEO Yan soon so that they can start the signing process tomorrow while he took her inside the mansion."Master you are back. I hope-" Butler Ho Chen started but stopped when he saw the sleeping beauty in Lu Jingzhe's arms and couldn't help but zip his lips.Smiling at Lu Jingzhe and raising his finger to his lips, he signaled that he understood and motioned everyo
"Are you nervous?" Lu Jingzhe asked as he looked at her form, which looked slightly pale than usual."No. Why would I be?" Qingxi asked quizzically, though her shaking of legs didn't stop."Nothing, you just look a bit pale, plus you have been shaking your legs since the moment we sat in the car." Lu Jingzhe said."My days started today." Qingxi blurted out of the blue, which Lu Jingzhe look at her with a concerned gaze."Will you be fine? Do you need me to buy something for you?" Lu Jingzhe asked."No. I have everything I'll be needing."Qingxi was busy looking outside when the phone started buzzing with an incoming call. As soon as she saw the caller ID, she immediately tapped on Secretary Han's shoulder to tell him to stop the car."I am sorry, this is an important matter," Qingxi said as she stepped out of the car, and only picked the call when she was at enough distance from it."What is it?" She asked, without any g
"Young master Lu Jingzhe, miss, you are here. Madam, Master and elder master have been waiting for you in the living room." Butler of Old Lu's mansion spoke as soon as he saw them entering the house."Okay. You can go back!" Lu Jingzhe nodded before looking at Qingxi with a reassuring smile.He didn't know why, but it looked like Qingxi was smiling and was looking happier since the call she received."Let's go." Lu Jingzhe said as he held her hand before leading her to where the living room was.Once they reached the living room, the first thing that Qingxi noticed was an old man sitting on the couch with a stiff expression on his face. Smirking when she recognized who the old man was, she put on her best smile as she greeted all of them one by one with a bow."You are here. Lu Jing had been asking about you for quite some time." Lu Xuelo said as she stood and made her sit closer to herself."That's very sweet of him, madam Lu," Qingxi said
"What's the result of the new pols of the movie?" Luo Xialing asked her manager."They're going good. They're being displayed in top three search results, and reviews are also good." Her manager replied."Okay." Luo Xialing said while doing her make-up.Luo Xialing's manager sighed in relief, thinking that she was able to avoid the disaster."I'll be leaving if that's all." She said before bowing and turning to exit the room."What did you say was on the number one of the trending list?" Luo Xialing voice suddenly echoed in the room, making her manager stop dead in her tracks"It's The legend of love, mam." She said as she closed her eyes, waiting for the reprimanding to start."Ohh.…you can go." Luo Xialing said in a dismissing manner."Aren't you angry about that?" Her manager couldn't help but ask her, not knowing whether she should feel relieved or prepare for a more intense problem in the future."N
Once Qingxi reached inside with a happy Lu Jing in her arms, Lu Xuelo couldn't help but rush to their sides as she snatched Lu Jing away from Qingxi and started inspecting his body."Who treats a kid like that? I can't even imagine how many injuries he might have suffered because of your so-called useless gaming and playing. Don't you know any other games other than this risky one? He is just a small kid, and you were attacking him so viciously." Lu Xuelo reprimanded as she turned the kid around and touched him everywhere to check for any injuries.However, when she couldn't even find a scratch on his body, she couldn't help but gaze at Qingxi with an amazed and perplexed expression."How is that even possible?" She murmured while still moving her hands all around the kid's body to check for any injuries.Apart from his dirty clothes that had also been torn at few places, there was no injury on his body altogether."You told me, you are here to take
"Mm...sure. what do you wanna know?" Qingxi asked casually while concentrating on her food.Old master- "…"'Isn't she supposed to introduce herself briefly when asked such a question?' The old master thought while Lu Jingzhe, who was well-versed with her attitude couldn't help but smile silently."I...umm.. anything about your work, where you live, about your family, something like that." The old master said awkwardly.This was the first time he was talking with someone who wasn't even one percent intimidated with him apart from his family and couldn't help but feel a bit happy and awkward both."Aren't you too curious? Well, I work as an actress. I haven't debuted yet. My first movie will be released this week. Make sure to watch it." Qingxi said as she lifted her head to look at the old man.When Lu Janglu and Lu Xuelo heard her bold words, they couldn't help but cough as they looked at the old master for any kind of outburst
In the Yun mansion, general Yun was pacing back and forth, waiting for Qingxi to arrive so that he can play a game of chess with her."Father, what has to you got so worked up? Please sit down or your health will be affected." General Yun's daughter said as she looked at him with concern-filled eyes."Master general, all the dishes that you've asked us to prepare are done. Do you want to have a look at them?" The head chef came to report."What about the milkshake?" General Yun asked as he looked at the gate anxiously."That is also prepared. We have also ordered extra chocolate chips and accessories to make it fancier as you've ordered." The head chef said.Yun Bing's daughter, who was sitting there and hearing the head chef, couldn't help but ask finally,"Father, is someone important coming today?"As long as she remembered, no one could make her father this anxious. This was the first time he looked nervous and well acted like
