After Lu Tingxiao had unplugged the cable, Lu Jingli couldnāt hear what Ning Xi was saying, and could only guess that she was asking Lu Tingxiao to go back.
Hearing his botherās cold answer, he screamed inside: No! Why didn't even Ning Xi getting personally involved work?! Do the heavens really want me to die like this?
Ning Xiās voice became even gentler. "But Iām worried about taking Little Treasure out by myself. What if something happens? Little TreasureĀ definitely wants you to come too! Come back, ok? Ok?"
Lu Tingxiao was silent for three seconds, before he opened his mouth: "Alright, Iāll be back soon."
Lu Jingli was stunned, and then suddenly felt the radiance of the sun shine down on him ā he was in heaven!
Sister-in-law is almighty!
I knew she could do it!
He had thought his brother was really unmoved, but it turned out he was only pretending to be annoyed!
After ending the call, Lu Tingxiao said two words: "Meeting adjourned."
Everyone looked at each other, not daring to believe theyād been let off just like that!
Lu Jingli was so proud of himself: everyone thank me, Iām the one who called our life saver, all of you were saved because of me!
Shortly after the meeting ended, Lu Jingli was surrounded:
"Second Young Master, did we hear wrong just now? A woman actually called Boss Lu!
"Who was it? With just a phone call, she got Boss Lu to leave in the middle of a meeting!"
"I know, right? Does Boss Lu actually have someone by his side? Which familyās young miss is it? Second Young Master, tell us everything!"
ā¦
Lu Jingli stared at all of them warily. "What! Asking me who it is, what do you want? Want to hug her thigh now? No way! Only I can hug my future sister-in-lawās thigh! You people don't even think about it!"
Everyone:"ā¦" Couldnāt they hug even just one toe?
ā¦
In the corner of the studio backlot, Ning Xi ended the call feeling relieved.
Finally, it was sortedā¦
There shouldn't be any more problems after this, right?
It clearly had nothing to do with her, it was really selfless of her to help!
Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang; it was Lu Jingli again.
"Second Young Master, what is the matter now? Wasnāt that enough?"
"No no no, Xiao Xi Xi, your honey trap was just too perfect! It solved the problem beautifully!"
Ning Xiās face turned black at his words. "What honey trap! That was luring the tiger from his cave! Have some common sense!"
"Whoops, I understand, I understand! Thatās it, Iām hanging up. Iāll treat you to food the next time youāre free!"
Ning Xi was speechless as she looked at the disconnected phone.
What did this person understand?
"Ning Xiao Xi, why are you hiding here? Letās go eat!" She hadnāt noticed Jiang Muye coming over.
Looking around nervously, Ning Xi relaxed after making sure no one had seen him come look for her. Wearily, she leaned on a big, red palace pillar behind her. "I have something on tonight, you guys go, I don't think I can make it."
"What?" Jiang Muyeās face changed after hearing this. "Itās my welcome dinner, and Iām your film partner! Youāre actually not coming?"
Ning Xi knitted her eyebrows together. "I know, I know, my fault, but I really have something very important on tonight, Iāll treat you next time, alright?"
"Not alright!" Jiang Muye did not buy her explanation in the slightest, and looked intently at her. "What do you have on thatās so important? Who are you going to see tonight?"
Ning Xiās voice turned a bit stern.Ā "Who I see is noneof your business."
After she spoke, Jiang Muyeās face immediately turned ugly. "Youāre going to see Lu Tingxiao, aren't you?"
