NC WANTS TO POACH YOU
Last Updated:
2020-07-27 22:30:22She carelessly picked up the phone but before she could even say 'hello' he spoke up, "Qin Qin, are you awake?"
"Yes, what's up?"
"I have to talk to you about something. Can we meet up?" he asked nervously.
"Sure, at Down Town café at 10." She replied without a second thought.
"Okay!" and he hung up.
Li Jin used his usual tone, the polite and causal one but Qin Yue could sense both excitement and hesitation in his voice, so it must be something really important so she didn't refuse and immediately agreed to meet up.
…
At Down Town café by ten, Qin Yue entered wearing a hat and cooling glass and immediately spotted Li Jin at a corner seat.
"Am here, tell me what is it." She spoke as she took her seat. Maybe Li Jin had still not compiled up his courage to tell her the fact.
What if she gets angry? What if she thinks that am trying to abandon her because of her current state? Will my actions be considered as striking someone when he is at his worse? But, NC is so capable…They will surely take care of her! But what if she doesn't understand it?
His thought process hindered as he suddenly remembered that this was that golden opportunity a person gets only once in their life and Qin Yue had to make good use of it. Suddenly he gained an unknown spirit as he asked with a casual tone, "Qin Qin, what are your thoughts about changing companies?" Qin Yue couldn't really interpret his thoughts as she confusedly asked, "Why would you ask me that? You guys are really kicking me out?"
"No, no! How can we do that?" he refuted immediately.
"Then, what's up with this question?" she asked with a giggle.
Li Jin hesitated a little before letting it go, "Actually…NC studios want to poach you!" Qin Yue was stunned for a while and stayed silent for a while as she processed what he said.
NC actually wanted to take her in? No way…
"Jin Ge, you are kidding, right?" she couldn't believe on her ears. Li Jin relaxed a bit, her expressions showed that she was not mad about it rather excited.
"I wouldn't dare to, Qin Qin. If am lying then I would be stuck by lighting a thousand times now…" Li Jin crossed his heart, he was serious this time. Qin Yue was a bit dazed, companies tend to poach on big shots in the industry but it was first time they are trying to catch on a celebrity who have lost popularity a long time ago. NC was a bit...weird.
She inquired Li Jin why they wanted to take her in for which he replied, "I too don't know, it happened yesterday at the bar…" Li Jin ended up narrating her the whole story without even missing a coma or inverted come. Qin Yue was hell happy, why won't she be.
She well knew that she will be doomed if she continued to stay with her current agency and it was like a huge opportunity for her. She might be crazy if she turns down this offer but, what about Li Jin? If she leaves the agency not only will she loose her manager and assistant but will also lose a friend who have been with her with every thick and thin. Won't it be like abandoning him?
The sweet smile on her face started to fade; she couldn't make herself to turn her back to her only friend. She took a deep breath and asked, "Jin Ge, what about you?" Li Jin was a little clumsy but he was super smart at these aspects. He immediately smiled and replied, "Qin Qin, don't be guilty. Though I have nurtured you to what are you today but life is all about moving on. I have put my efforts on you to see you at the top not to be cornered. No one is happier than me about you going to another company."
Qin Yue felt better after hearing to his points but she couldn't help but laugh, "Jin Ge, you sure are a good employee! Convincing an artist to leave your company and go to others." Seeing her smile he forgot all his worries, he explained, "Golden Age is not the same company as before; they have easily abandoned you. They have turned their back upon you so it is alright for you to do so."
But what he just said were not just word of impulse, he was indeed true.

He has successfully convinced her, Mr. Lu will be happy now, right! The two were taking the last sips of their coffee when Qin Yue suddenly remembered something, "Jin Ge, what about the compensation?"Li Jin came back to his senses, he evaluated, "You still have four years left in this damned company. Each year worth's two million Yuan, so four years sums up to 8 million Yuan!""Eight million Yuan?" she was taken aback. Yes, she was a famous actress but she had no money with her; all her money were used up as a settlement fee for the scandals that she had brought to herself. To be exact, with no job she was completely broke! She bit her lips, where was she going to arrange the money or was she to use up all her savings on it? Li Jin was silent too, he knew that all her savings would drain up by the paying the compensation fee.

"Sister- in… I mean, Xiao Yue. What are you doing here?" the man was just about to call her 'sister- in- law' out of habit but he stabilized himself and changed the address.

Qin Yue called out in a low voice as a shimmer of hope silvered in her eyes.An Zihao's mind went blank when he saw her like this and he involuntarily passed her a plastic bag before turning around to leave. Qin Yue cautiously opened the package to find a new set of clothes in it. With her current state she had no energy to think about anything else than wearing it up. It was a set of jeans and a long sleeved top with a scarf; the outfit was perfect to sooth her cold body and hide those marks left on them by Lu Sheng.

Qin Yue was pleasantly surprised as she asked him, "You still remember my favorite dishes?" An Zihao could only smile at her question.

The couple washed their hands and sat down to have dinner; the appetizing meal paired with its inviting aroma sent a gush of hunger down Lu Sheng's belly. Lu Sheng was a picky eater but when it came to Qin Yue he never complained; since she was living alone for a long time Qin Yue knew how to cook but she never gave any special care to enhance its quality. She was the only one cooking and feeding herself; there were even times when, out of tiredness, she used to skip meal and go to sleep directly.She was a good cook but her standards could never match to his tongues'; he was brought up eating the meals prepared by professional chefs. At first Lu Sheng had difficulties to get accustomed to her food style, even Qin Yue knew about it but there was nothing she could do.

Determined she walked in, changing her slippers she dropped on the sofa.Xiao Xi ran out of the kitchen to greet her to which Qin Yue replied with a polite smile. Lu Sheng's words echoed in her ears; it was their wedding night and she was to please him. Qin Yue's attention was drawed to Xiao Xi; she called her out."Yes, Young Madam?"Qin Yue replied, "You can take leave today; don't worry I won't reduce the salary." A smile bloomed on Xiao Xi's face as she bowed and thanked her good willed Mistress, "Thank You, Young Madam!" Saying these the little maid ran into her room and changing int
Holding Onto His Distorted Love THE MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE
Lu Sheng parted his lips from hers and asked her seriously, "Now let me ask you, being wife of a businessman is not easy, it's like living on a bet! Sun never shines everyday and never does business; there might be a possibility that I may go bankrupt and may not be able to give you a luxurious life that you deserve... You may have to face hardship with me! And once we go in and get married legally I won't ever let go of you... Life or death you will have to stay with me till we go down the grave together! Are you ready to face all this with me? Are you willing to be mine forever?"Qin Yue chocked on her tears which she was having a hard time to keep it, all she could manage was a little mumble, "I... I do!"Lu Sheng kissed the back of her palm which were still locked in his arms; he said, "Let's get married, Qin Qin!"Saying so he pushed open the door and came out, holding hands with her he lead her in.

"I guess buying him was a bad idea!" Lu Sheng stood there holding a plate looking at the girl playing with the puppy. He was jealous- why was that puppy invading her, his property. Lu Sheng couldn't help but give out a piercing a glance at the little puppy. Lu Sheng hated pets in the first place given to his obsession with cleanliness. He bought it to keep her company, not to steal his woman from him. Maybe Little Zhu Zhu understood what he said that he stopped and returned Lu Sheng's stare.Qin Yue was rendered speechless by the way the master and the puppy interracted. The ice seemed not to break so Qin Yue spoke up, "What did you prepare, I am starving!""Keep that thing aside and wash your hands.""Thing? Lu Sheng, he has a name!""I don't care."Qin Yue stopped talking at once, this guy was such a jealous little volcano. She obediently went away lest she pisses him off and g
