Waking up early in the morning, Qingxi quickly took a shower before heading downstairs.
The scene that was presented in front of her, in the living room was truly epic for her.
An angry-looking Lu Jing was glaring at his father, and Lu Jingzhe on the other hand was just staring at him expressionlessly.
"What happened between you two?" She said as soon as she reached the last step.
Lu Jing rushed towards Qingxi before hugging her legs like a wronged child.
"What did you do?" She asked Lu Jingzhe now.
"Let's have breakfast. You need to go to the company too." Lu Jingzhe said, directly dodging the question.
"Yeah...I remember."
Sitting on the table, they were having a harmonious breakfast with Lu Jing competing with his father for Qingxi's attention. And Qingxi who loved this kid soo much was more than happy to do th
Hearing Qingxi's words everyone started whispering among themselves again."Woah? This Qiao Feng locked a deal even after his secret was out?""I thought he was going to quit soon.""Yeah! Didn't knew he was going to get lucky and get himself a beautiful trainee under him.""Who knows? Looks like this beauty is going to be ruined in his hands now.""Why does it feel like this Qiao Feng had changed his ways this time and helped this girl without using underhanded tricks.""Let's see how far he can go with his pretense.""If this beauty knew what kind of manager he is, I doubt she would have wasted her time like this."Qiao Feng smiled thankfully towards Qingxi, knowing she had said all these words just for his sake.Though he was smiling thankfully, Qingxi could still notice the trace of sadness underlying his eyes. This was how cruel this entertainment industr
Qiao Feng looked at Lu Juan emotionally,"So, will I be changed or not?""Don't worry, looks like I lost the bet. You won't be changed. Now go relax. And let me warn you, you are not allowed to fall for her." Lu Juan said begrudgingly."Senior, what are you saying. Don't tell me you have not heard of it already, I am gay." Qiao Feng said, a bit embarrassingly."That's why we are more stressed. You'll know about it later." Lu Juan said before waving his hand in a dismissing manner._________Outside the star high corporation, Qingxi started her bike stuffing the contract in her jacket casually. If it would have been someone else, she would have handled the contract of such a big production with the utmost care, but not her.Mumbling random songs that were coming to her mind, she was riding happily when she received the phone call from her third brother
Seeing how everyone had started pointing to her weirdly, Xialing went blank for a second.'When did this Qingxi became so capable to turn the tables like this.' She thought involuntarily.Gao Ying could not take in the fidgeting form of Xialing anymore, and said with a fake smile,"Looks like my girl forgot the real timing this time. Can't help it when she is so excited to film this movie. Aren't we all?"He displayed an attribute of a true businessman, didn't he? With his words, he changed the perception of soo many people within a second.Everyone nodded happily and started talking merrily again.Xialing flashed a thankful smile to Gao Ying, which he reverted with a smile of his own.Qingxi scoffed at the fake display of affection in front of her and sat near the third female lead Bai Rouyan."You know, you are really beautiful." B
Everyone stretched their muscles after getting down from the bus.After the long 2 hours ride, they were now finally standing at their destination point."Hey, give me your WeChat I'd. I will send you the video." Bai Rouyan said, running to catch up with Qingxi.Having been brought up in a Village, climbing such small hills or tracking wasn't a big deal for Qingxi. Paired with the regular exercises that she daily does, her body was more than fit, and that was the main reason why she wasn't feeling the least bit tired."Sure. Lemme add you." Qingxi said before typing in her WeChat credentials in Bai Rouyan's phone.Bai Rouyan smiled gratefully towards her, almost running to keep with her walking pace.She was feeling extremely happy after making a friend. Till now she hadn't found anyone reliable who didn't talk behind people's backs.Her principal wa
As expected, everyone was grumbling and complaining about, how the director was cruel enough to make them walk such a long distance, when buses and cars were very well motorable in the area."Who was the one who had said that I don't want my artists to become tired?" Someone said sarcastically, moving beside the director."Don't be so pessimistic about it. If I have hailed the cab or accommodate you with a car and bus, then you wouldn't have been able to experience the beautiful scenery and the location perks. Besides that, the area was a part of scenery too, and I wanted you guys to enjoy, observe and experience it yourself." Director said, shaking his head when he saw the haggard sloth-looking crew in the lobby.Qingxi laughed at the director's implication and said jokingly looking a bit sad,"Oh my!! You should've said that earlier director. In my hurry to get here, I didn't observe clearly. But from my p
Pushing open the door to his main office, Lu Jingzhe trotted in, looking for a particular someone. Soon, he noticed a small furball sitting on the corner of the sofa, looking outside the window with a mild expression hanging on his face.This was the same expression that Lu Jingzhe hated the most on this kid's face.The expression of longing and want.Wanting to erase that expression off his face, he scooted to his level before saying."Today I received a message on my phone when I was in the meeting."However, Lu Jing still didn't give him the attention Lu Jingzhw was looking for."Looks like someone has sneaked on my phone and messaged a particular someone. I got a reply." Lu Jingzhe said, sitting on the sofa as if talking to himself.Before he could say anything else, he felt soft hands exploring his coat pockets, trying to find so
After the allotted time of 30 minutes, almost everyone was gathered in the lobby waiting for the female lead and male lead to make their appearance.It wasn't long before everyone saw male lead Lou Tingxiao coming inside the hotel."What are we waiting for? I thought we were going sightseeing for 30 minutes. I've been waiting outside for quite some time." Lu Tingxiao said."Ohh you were outside, we thought you were still inside your room. Good. Good. Now only, Xialing is left." Director said.As soon as he finished speaking, they noticed Xialing coming out of the lift, hand in hand with Gao Ying.Smiling bashfully at everyone and stopping her gaze on Qingxi, she said,"Sorry for keeping you all waiting. I was preoccupied with some work."'Work my ass. You were banging someone.' Qingxi thought in her mind. Since she was standing at a quite good distance from the group,
Looking at the person who had dared to stop her, Qingxi squinted her eyebrows annoyed before saying in a rash tone,"What do you want now, Mr. Gao?"Gao Ying flinched involuntarily at her harsh tone before saying neutrally,"Can we talk?" "And why do you think, I will agree to talk to you out of all people?" Qingxi asked. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Xialing talking to the director about something."Looks like Mr. Gao is soo afraid of his girlfriend that, he will only talk to people when she is busy somewhere else." She scoffed."That's not what it is. I know Xialing makes you uncomfortable, and that's the last thing I want." Gao Ying said as he looked at Qingxi a bit confused.As long as his memory served good, she was the same girl who would smile happily just by looking at him. He knew that this girl loved him very much, though he had been appeased by Xialing's seductive confident nature, he always liked this sweet fresh air like a girl too. He used to feel very proud w
"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
