Reaching back home, the first thing that she did was to call her brother Jones.
"Hello?" Qingxi said as soon as the call connected.
"Yes, Qingxi, I saw that. You were awesome." Jones immediately commented, knowing why she head called."Did you like my entry? Or my attitude? Or the way is walked and talked?" Qingxi asked, feeling like a child who acted in a play, and was now waiting for his parents' appreciation.
"Yes, Qingxi. I saw all of that. Everyone saw the whole live broadcast to not miss a single thing. However, now that I notice, this duo is trying to find trouble for you again, aren't they?" Jones asked while typing something on his laptop.
"Brother, don't worry about them. They are nothing. I'll handle them on my own, don't worry." Qingxi said before ending the call after they talked for some more time.
Lying on her bed, she looked at the ceiling thinking about how well she had handled the things today. She couldn't help but squeal li
"Hey? Are you okay? How are you feeling now?" Lu Jingzhe immediately asked when he saw Qingxi trying to sit up."Yeah, I feel much better. But my body feels aching all over. What happened? And-" Qingxi paused before her surroundings registered in her mind."And why am I lying on a hospital bed?" Qingxi asked confused."You do not remember anything, do you?" Lu Jingzhe asked as he poured some water into the glass for her to drink."What should I remember? All I remember is coming over to my room and talking with Jones, and then Chu Xuelo called, but since I was in no mood, I had switched off my phone and closed my eyes to sleep. Did anything happened after that?" Qingxi asked, squinting her brows while looking at him.However, Lu Jingzhe's didn't have to say anything to explain what had happened.As soon as she lifted her hand to see the drip, she immediately noticed the red patches on her skin.And these patches only appear when her all
Meanwhile, in Luo's mansion, three girls were sitting in Luo Xialing's room, giggling and talking about things."Are you sure it will work?" Su Lan asked for the tenth time from the moment she had entered Luo Xialing's room."Of course, it will work. Don't think too much about things. I know her the best. This won't be the first time when her allergy would be reacting like this. It had happened two times before too. And as far as I know, it's life-threatening to her. I just hope she dies today." Luo Xialing said as an evil glint passed through her eyes."She'll d-die?" Feng Yi stuttered.Today when they had gone to the restaurant to eat, all three of them. They couldn't help but notice Qingxi sitting not too far from them. As Luo Xialing looked at her happy expression, she couldn't help but feel her blood boiling, remembering how she had humiliated her in front of so many people.Since the reporters didn't know anything about the Enigmatic YQ
"Don't worry. You look alright." Lu Jingzhe said as he looked at her checking her reflection in her phone again and again.Today was his grandfather's birthday, and they were going to the old mansion to celebrate it. Lu Jingzhe was wearing a dark grey suit with a golden handkerchief in his pocket that was slightly matching with Qingxi's golden shimmering dress that Lu Juan had especially bought for her to commemorate her beautiful debuting.Lu Jingzhe wanted to use the same color as Qingxi's dress, but Qingxi didn't want to make it obvious that they were a pair of something, and that's why she strongly disagreed with it."Qingxi. Stop doing it. Looking at you is making me more nervous than you are. It feels like we are in some secret love, and I am going to introduce you to my parents for the first time. Have you forgotten, you have already met them." Lu Jingzhe said with a chuckle, remembering how his father had motivated him to go for the girl he loved when th
Lu Jingzhe, whose gaze was trained on someone else, immediately froze when Gu Xei half hugged him from the side.Few people that were surrounding them also looked at the duo while whispering in hushed voices."Isn't that the daughter of Gu family? She is hugging Lu Jingzhe so daringly. Isn't it rumored that he doesn't allow any woman near him? Then does this mean they are seeing each other?" One of the ladies asked her friend."I know, right? Otherwise, why would he let her hug him? If this would've been any other girl, he would've thrown her away instantly." Another one said."Looks like I will have to find someone else for my daughter. I was thinking about approaching Lu Lin Che for the marriage proposal. Who would've thought that he is already taken." Another one said before they moved towards another side to gossip with some other ladies.As Lu Jingzhe heard all these words, he looked at Gu Xei with an irritated look.As his gaze was n
As Qingxi heard him hissing in pain while looking down, she couldn't help but follow his gaze where Lu Jing was biting on his hand.Qingxi- "…"Lu Jingzhe- "…"Lu Juan- "…"Everyone else- "…""Ouch! I am Sorry! Okay fine! I was wrong! Leave my hand! Ouch. Qingxi! What are you waiting for? He only listens to you! Ask him to leave my hand this instant!" Lu Juan shouted uncontrollably as he tried his best to pull his hand away from Lu Jing's mouth.As everyone stood there watching the scene, it wasn't long before a very hearty melodious laugh echoed in the hall."So cute." Qingxi smiled, making Lu Jing, who had involuntarily bit his uncle's hand, look at her shyly. Releasing his uncle's hand with a shy look, he stood there as if nothing happened, like he wasn't the one biting on his uncle's hand just now.Lu Jingzhe's family members, who were looking at the scene, couldn't help but chuckle at their grandson's b
It has been three days since the birthday party of Lu Jingzhe's grandfather.Currently, Qingxi was sitting in front of the TV in the living room with some Popcorns in her hand, patiently waiting for the news to arrive.Since Lu Jingzhe had already gone to the office and other maids along with butler Ho Chen were on holiday since it was a Saturday and butler ho Chen had to go to his relatives, Qingxi was alone in Lu Jingzhe's house and didn't have to care about her image or the way she was sitting at all.She was sitting here waiting for the news because a few minutes ago, she had finally sent the information she had collected of Su Yan and Feng Yi to the famous news editors so that it could become the next headline. She had also sent the video clip of both of them bribing the waiter to add some foreign material to Qingxi's food to let them know that all of this was happening because they had offended Qingxi."Aish! Why isn't it showing already
The next day, Qingxi woke up to harsh banging on her door, and she couldn't help but curse out aloud before she stood from her bed to open the door."It better be important!" Qingxi shouted the first thing as soon as she opened the door."Qingxi! What the hell is wrong with you! I have been trying to reach you from last night, and here you are sleeping peacefully after causing turmoil in the company." Lu Juan said as he pushed her aside before coming inside the room."I caused a turmoil? What the hell are you talking about?" Qingxi said in her half-conscious state as she was still wondering about sleeping and completing her dream in which she was in a park where her dad was playing with her."Qingxi! Now is not the time to sleep!" Lu Juan shouted as he shook her shoulders violently."Will you come to the point rather than going around in circles?" Qingxi shouted back before sitting on her bed and pouring herself some water which might help to
"Qingxi, where are we going?" Qiao Feng asked as he looked at her smiling face, which was a total contrast to what he was expecting in such a situation."We are going to get something that will prove one of the rumors wrong, and another rumor half wrong," Qingxi answered smilingly, while replying to them, who had messaged her with words of motivation and support.She was shocked to see few members from the crew of the movie messaging her and telling her that they believed in her. It made her feel happy. The feeling of someone believing in you when almost the whole world is against is you, was what gave her this insane confidence and energy that she would be able to refute all the rumors and come out clean.Stopping her car in front of one of the biggest hospitals in the province where celebrities usually go for their check-ups and were known for its unbiased treatment and undulated reports, she immediately booked an appointment for the gynecologist test.
"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
