A cold smile appeared on his face as he asked her back, "Didn't expect me, right?" Qin Yue finally managed to stable herself, this man was really here and he was now her boss. How did it happen like this? Thousand questions struck her mind.
When did he return to Beijing? When did he take over NC? Why did he poach me? What the hell is going on?
"You…How could it be you?" she asked him with a hint of disdain in her tone. The beautiful smile on the man's face vanished within a fraction of seconds before the temperature of the room suddenly fell down. Coldness and fury emitted from the man's body and he looked at her with frosted gaze. "Don't tell me that you don't remember my oath!" he asked with a calm yet murderous tone.
Goosebumps started to flood her body. She clearly remembered his oath; she co
"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. If he did he would have made the situation a thousand times awkward. His face was not visible in the dim lighting but she still managed to recognize his voice."Zihao!" 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.
Since it was the night and she had been in the office for the whole evening An Zihao took her to have some dinner and they ended up in a Japanese restaurant.An Zihao took the menu and choosed some random dishes which all happened to be her favorite food to eat. Qin Yue was pleasantly surprised as she asked him, "You still remember my favorite dishes?" An Zihao could only smile at her question. Memories were not meant to be painful, it was all about the perspective. Qin Yue had been suffering painfully for the last few days and didn't want her reunion with her old mate to be a bad memory either. So, she stole a glance at him; the meek little boy she knew has long disappeared and in front of her was a well built and a deviously charming young man.She smiled and taking a sip of water asked, "So, what have you been doing lately?" An Zihao was in the middle
After getting a few shots, the paparazzi quickly jotted down an article and published it on internet. Even before she managed to finish her food the news about her changing companies spread like wildfire and netizens were curiously discussing about it.The internet was in an uproar as netizens were restlessly trying to get an answer to quench their curiousness; they knew that Golden Age and Qin Yue were not in good terms and it was normal for her to change companies. But what gave them a shock was her joining NC, with her current status it was next to impossible. NC were currently ruling the industry and only took in artist with a promising career. It was undeniable that Qin Yue was a real talent but her golden times had ended and she was made to partially retire, how come they choose her.Since the news was solely based on some photos and few sentences n
Li Jin was not a healthy child back then, he was just six months old when he caught pneumonia and nearly escaped death and since then he was pampered by his whole family. He was spoilt to the extent that he grew really stubborn and his temper was not good either. As he grew old it was getting harder to handle him and his ever-changing temper. Han Mufeng angrily spout, "Li Jin, I have had enough, are you still not satisfied? You were meant to take over your father's business but you gave up on it and insisted on being a mere manager to be close to that girl. You are no regular guy, you are the hire of the Han family and a descendant of Li family! I allowed you to stoop down to this low for that woman and still you are causing me trouble? Is she more important than me?"Yes, he was no ordinary guy! He was the precious child of the Li- Han family, the child who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth yet he was suffering as a
Han Mufeng took a deep breath and started, "Jin Er, you should know that uncle has loved you since you were young and would never do anything to hurt you. I played along with you all this time and yet you blame…""Cut the crap and talk business." Li Jin interrupted with a straight face.Han Mufeng glared at his choice of words, was he really this rascal's uncle? It was getting more and more troublesome to have a descent conversation with this stone. Han Mufeng angrily puffed and spat, "You wanted to know why I doomed that Qin girl? Why I made things difficult for her though I knew what she means to you, right?" Li Jin gave no reaction as he contained himself and looked forward for the reason. Han Mufeng took another sip of the tea as he replied with a hint of guilt in his voice, "I had to do this for the company!"
Li Jin felt as if lighting had struck him when he heard Lu Sheng's demand, did he just say that he wants Qin Yue or were his ears deceiving him? The video continued with a hesitant voice of Han Mufeng saying, "Mr. Lu I can promise you anything but not her."Lu Sheng was silent before a cold smirk appeared on his handsome face, "Qin Yue seems to be more important than the company." Han Mufeng kept quiet, seemingly not knowing what to say. Suddenly the temperature of the room seemed to drop as the man in front of him started to emit a dangerous aura. The smile on Lu Sheng's face disappeared as, without waiting for another second, he continued in a murderous tone, "So, Mr. Han won't hand her over to me? Fine, I have my ways which are even more ruthless. It is an undeniable fact that after devastating Golden Age I will naturally acquire a hold on every single artist in it. Either way I will get what I need."
An Zihao's question was a simple one but it still managed to plunder away the smile she had on her face. Can they ever get back together? Qin Yue smiled to herself as she replied, "There was not a single second in my life when I have never missed him but now, after experiencing his hatred for me, even his surname makes me shudder! I won't ever turn back to him even if he is the only man left in this entire world." An Zihao froze after he heard her answer but he couldn't speak out a word and before he could regain his senses she had already hopped into the cab.After the cab disappeared from his line of sight, An Zihao raised his phone to see that the call was still connected. He deactivated the speaker setting before raising the phone to his ears. There was an eerie silence on the other end of the phone; it seemed that Lu Sheng had heard everything that she had said. An Zihao said, "Bro, I told you that her answer won'
She merrily clicked it open but as soon as she saw what it held her smile vanished; that picture contained Lu Sheng having dinner with a… young woman. The pictures were not clear as it seemed to be clicked from a distance but she still could figure out Lu Sheng's flawless features. The young woman had a sweet smile on her face as she knitted her eyes with his whereas Lu Sheng donned his usual stone face but they still managed to look happy and loving. Qin Yue averted her gaze from the screen and tightened her grip on the phone; she knew that rest of the photos would be more hurtful but she still saw them one by one.As expected they looked closer as the gallery preceded, some of the images were of them chatting happily, some of them toasting, there were even some in which she was whispering something in his ears. More worse was the video in which they seemed to be strolling in a park when suddenly the woman stopped an
Qin Yue pulled down her lips to stop herself from blushing wide; stabilizing herself she gave up her thoughts about influencing his decisions. Lu Sheng never listened to anyone, not even herself, when it came to taking care of and doting her. He arrogantly believed that he was the best on it and surprisingly, he indeed was the best."I will be leaving to work, hubby!"In the meeting room Lu Sheng casted a radiant smile befor taking away the phone off his ears. He looked at Chen Han and ordered, "She is dropping by NC and is ready to continue with her work; make sure everything is ready and neatly arranged before she arrives so that she won't meet with any inconveniences.""Understood, Mr. Lu!" Saying this Chen Han took out his phone and walked out leaving Lu Sheng and the curious board members alone in that room. Even though almost everyone had a rough idea who it was on the other side of the phone a middle aged man sitting some two heads apart from Lu Sheng
Standing right beside the garage was a Mercedes Benz C- class and a man dressed in neatly pressed black suit. Qin Yue still couldn't understand what was going on, Xiao Xi looked at her Young Madam's confused reaction. As ordered she sneakily clicked a candid picture of her and sent it to Lu Sheng.The ice berg CEO was currently attending a meeting with a straight face when his phone chimed ending his long awaited wait. His sword like eyebrows relaxed and the corner of his frozen lips curled up slightly. Chen Han noticed this slight change in the President's face and immediately signalled for the representative to stop. As expected, Lu Sheng didn't make any reaction about the sudden halt in the explanation and kept on staring at his brightly lit phone screen.Xiao Xi's WeChat came through just now, he downloaded the file to see the side profile of his beautiful wife wearing a really cute and confused expression on her face. He adored the pic
Lu Sheng pinned down both of her hands and started to kiss her; his kiss was not dominant but rather a mellow one. It was as if he was nurturing them and tasting her sweet lips to his heart content. He slowly traced down his fingers down her cheeks to her neck.Underneath him Qin Yue wriggled and smiled; his touch in her skin was like bare Heavens pouring down on her. She looked like a lost little kid who was suddenly brought up by someone and given the utmost care and love to.Lu Sheng's fingers moved to unzip her but he stopped; the girls breathings were slow and steady. It seemed that she was sleepy; Lu Sheng's eyes turned tender at the sight of her calm face. He pulled hismelf back to take a closer look at her.This woman... She got so nervous about tonight that she got herself drunk to hide it but ended up getting dizzy and slept.Lu Sheng nodded his head, sliding her bands aside he kissed on her forehead whispering, "I want to melt down in you, make you
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. Lu Sheng never gave her a hard time though; he always ate the food without leaving a speck of rice and even used to compliment her.It's been six years since he was having food
Qin Yue stood in the doorsteps as she watched her hubby leave for work; they were newly married yet they couldn't spend time with eachother. She sighed; Lu Sheng must hate to leave her alone at home but he was chained by responsibilities. As his wife she should stop making things difficult for him and rather support him unconditionally. 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
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. Chen Han had alr
"Civil Bureaucracy Office?" Qin Yue spelled the name of the building which stood high and mighty in front of them. Lu Sheng leaned forward to help her unbuckel her her seatbelt and asked, "Where else did you expect me to take me to? Park?"A strange swirl of emotion stormed inside Qin Yue. Yes, she was the one who proposed marriage and asked him to marry her as soon as they return to the country... But!She was still unsure if she was doing right!Lu Sheng was the love of her life and she was willing to claim her life for him. But... what about him? All this while she was the one spouting her needs and demands without even asking if he was ready for it.It is said that marriage is a big turning point for a couple's life. When two people tie themselves within the sacredness of marriage all their self oriented-ness would turm into selflessness. Was Lu Sheng ready to take responsibilities of her? Was he willing to name
"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
After reaching home Lu Sheng picked up the sleeping girl, Xiao Xi was already notified about the arrival of the Young Master and Mistress. She was standing at the front door and as soon as the couple came in sight she greeted him, “Young Master, welcome home!”Lu Sheng nodded, after changing into casual footware with his woman still in his arms he helped her change her shoes too. By this time Qin Yue was half awoken; she looked at his handsome profile a bit dizzy. “Sheng, are we home?”“Yes, we are!” He kissed her fo
