Lu Sheng replied with a grunt and said no more; beside him Qin Yue turned quizzical after listening to the conversation. She asked, "You... Where is the flight ticket for?" Lu Sheng patiently replied, "I will be leaving to America today for a business deal."
"Oh... When will you return then?"
"I will be out for a month!"
Qin Yue didn't ask anymore as she silent cheered inside; thank goodness he was going away and that too for a whole month. After the course of twenty whole minutes without traffic the car entered the magnificent gardens of Yang Yang villa. Qin Yue had never been there but she did look into this property before; Qin Yue liked to live in peace and this site was perfect for her lifestyle. She was disappointed when she learned about the price, even being an actress she was unable to afford it. Owning Yang Yang villa was one of her fantasies.
Learning that the man was leaving without giving her an appropriate answer Qin Yue didn't dare to stop him, she was already used to this ignorance of his. However, she did understand what his quietness meant. She placed an uncertain glance at his disappearing bank doubting herself; the man was as mysterious like some forest encrusted in mist- it was impossible for one to guess what was streaming in his mind.His tongue was glazed with the most vicious poison, capable to destroying even the most willful heart but his actions meant otherwise. Like a tender fruit of gooseberry he was all sour with a hint of sweet note. He claimed to hate her but also was the one to flip over when she experienced the slightest hint of pain.A bittersweet feeling welled up in her eyes- Lu Sheng… what really are you up to?M
Smiling at her he asked, "Madam, are you satisfied?" Qin Yue was a bit startled by the way he addressed her but then her eyes shifted at the man who was currently managing a call at some distance and understood why he called her so.Returning back a friendly smile she said, "This villa is my dream house, how can I not like it." Chen Han blurted out, "Hehe! No wonder President was dead set on buying this bungalow." "What do you mean?" Qin Yue asked unable to trace the meaning behind his words.Chen Han nonchalantly replied, "Mr. Lu, bought this villa a long time ago. To be accurate he bought it after receiving his first monthly salary." He placed an admiring glance at his boss and continued, "The price of this site was lofty and since he was new to the company he was forbidden from recklessly spending the company money. So Mr. Lu worked day and night to produce profit
Lu Sheng blinked before looking at the time, he really had to go now. Lu Sheng looked at the girl before giving out few instructions, "The housekeeper will be here soon and she will take care of your daily needs. If you are in need of anything contact me, okay?"Like a wife listening to her husband she jotted down everything attentively, Lu Sheng gave her a few more instructions before saying his final good bye, "It's time for me to go; take care of yourself." "Have a safe trip!" Qin Yue wished with a faint smile on her face; with nothing more left to say or remind Lu Sheng turned around to leave.Qin Yue stood rooted on her place as she watched him leaving; tugging the hem of her dress she bit on her lower lip. Just as he was about to step out she called out his name, "Sheng!" Lu Sheng's step halted as he turned around casting a lazy look.
After a long journey of 14 plus hours Lu Sheng finally stepped on the land of America where it was currently evening. Lu Sheng cheked- in in a presidential suite, there was still time for the dinner appointment so he decided to rest a bit before proceeding.He took a shower and wearing noting but a bath robe flopped on the bed; he took out his phone to activate it. As soon as he turned on the internet his phone brimmed up with notifications; Lu Sheng lazily surfed through it when a name caught his attention. There was finally a message from his 'Silly Point'.Lu Sheng immediately clicked it!Silly Point- Have you reached?The man's eyes filled with tenderness as he read it out; he immediately replied, "Yes!" Sensing that the reply was too short he add
Qin Yue, for some reason, felt peace after talking to him; she pulled her quilt and nuzzled in to sleep. By the time she woke up it was already noon; rubbing her misty eyes she walked down the stairs to hear Xiao Xi's muffled giggles. Sensing her approaching footsteps Xiao Xi stood up; casting her a smile she said, "Miss, look. The puppy Mr. Lu bought is here.""This early?" Qin Yue raised an eyebrow as a little round thing greeted her sight. The pug puppy was only a month old and was utterly active, after having a stomachful of dog cereals it was out to play. As soon as it saw a new person approaching it lost it's interest on the toy and turned at her. It stared at her for a while before using its little legs to bounce towards her.Qin Yue picked it up in her arms; the puppy was so small the it easily got accustomed in her palms. He blinked his eyes at her like a li
Qin Yue, on the other hand, sent him a private message, "It's the name I gave him. It's cute, right?" Lu Sheng replied, "It is but how did you come up with it?""It eats a lot, I couldn't think of a better name for him!" Qin Yue noisily complained as she felt that the man was not moved by the name. The couple had a chat for a good while before he had to go for work. Qin Yue kept aside her phone and started to play with the puppy.A week passed within a snap of her fingers; that day Wen Xiaoxiao had asked her to come back to the company. After Qin Yue got her reputation tarnished it was getting hard for her to build up her career; it was like staring all over again. Despite being capable it was really hard for Wen Xiaoxiao to accumulate work for her.After pulling some strings Wen Xiaoxiao finally managed to e
"Look who's here! Miss Qin, what a pleasant surprise..." Mo Yanyan snorted as she stood tall and mighty in front of her; Qin Yue casted her a lazy glance. Truthfully she had no will to chat, not even a bit, but to give the artist a face she smiled and replied, "Oh, Miss Mo is here too. Seems like the competition is going to be tough.""Is there even a competition?" Mo Yanyan laughed; the smile on Qin Yue's face sunk into that of ruthlessness. She had only disappeared from the industry for some while and her situation has turned this pathetic. She scanned the artist with her bright eyes, Mo Yanyan was the new actress whom the company was grooming and thus she was acting a little proud lately.Her lips twitched and she was about to give her an answer but another voice spoke up, "True, there really isn't any competition at all." Wen Xiaoxiao had to leave a bit to take u
Qin Yue, he had heard about her before but the girl hadn't made any noteworthy achievements which left him uninterested. But little did he know that the girl was no ordinary person but rather someone who possessed real talent.The director asked, "Miss Qin, why do you think that you can be the brand ambassador of 'August'?"Qin Yue took in a deep breath and replied, "To me no one is born made for eachother, it is our strong will and dedication that makes us worthy for it. As an actor I have no idea if the role of the ambassador suits me but I know if given a chance I will give it my best and won't disappoint you" A crisp and clear answer which moved the judges, she was the prefect candidate for it!The moment she entered the judges understood that she was the actress who was selected by the CEO; even though t
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
