Chapter 234 \nLin Zhen took the hint and stood up. âShuyi, Iâm tired. Letâs go back and rest. We shouldnât disturb them further.â\n
âOkay, then weâll be going first.â Before he left Chen Shuyi appeared to have thought of something. He turned to Lu Lixing. âIâve already handled the rumors regarding Ji Qingqing. Donât worry. But next time remember to call Vice President Zhou instead. Donât call me for trivial matters like this.â
Lu Lixing: ââŠâ
After seeing them off, the room became quiet.
Ji Qingqjngâs brow furrowed. âMr. Lu, do you have any idea why Director Wang changed the filming duration from three days to five days?â
âHow should I know?â
âBut earlier didnât President Chen mention it? That you and Director Wang had a deal so he changed the filming duration from three days to five days.â
âThereâs no such thing. Donât listen to his nonsense.â\n
Lu Lixing loosened his tie and strode back to his room in large steps.
Although he had gotten used to seeing a large number of large-scale events, when faced with Ji Qingqingâs questioning, he still became awkward to the point that he couldnât challenge her words.
Ji Qingqing followed behind him and muttered to herself, âYou secretly participated in this program without informing me, and you even made the director change the duration from three days to five daysâŠâ
Lu Lixing remained adamant. âDidnât I clarify it earlier? Director Wang couldnât possibly have changed the whole programâs schedule because of me alone. He has his own intentions.â
Ji Qingqing narrowed her eyes. âAre you sure? Could it be that you felt that the three days were too short so youâŠâ
âAnd so?â Lu Lixing interrupted her, âStop thinking nonsense. There is a lot to do at the company. I would very much prefer for the duration to be as short as possible.â
Ji Qingqing mused, âBut Grandpa already told me previously that the companyâs situation is stable and that there wasnât anything that necessarily required your presence. He also added that if thereâs a chance, I should go on a vacation together with you.â\nLu Lixing tried to maintain his composed front. He nonchalantly glanced at her. âArenât you tired? Go quickly to your room and rest.â
âWe chatted for a while earlier so I donât feel tired now. Ah right, I think I remember President Chen saying that you also personally instructed him to handle my rumorsâŠâ She looked at Lu Lixing with interest. âPresident Lu, regarding this kind of matter, you donât have to trouble yourself with it. My company has set up a team for me and they will be handling my rumors.â
Lu Lixing stood at the same spot and listened to Ji Qingqingâs little mouth run on continuously. Suddenly, he laughed.
In the past, how did he not realize that Ji Qingqing could talk so glibly?
He took a step forward and cupped her chin, lifting it slightly. Then he leaned forward and suddenly kissed her lips like he knew his way around.
Their lips collided and the warmth spread between their lips. Ji Qingqingâs eyes widened uncontrollably and her pupils constricted. She subconsciously held her breath.
The fleeting kiss parted quickly.
Ji Qingqing remained rooted to the spot, stunned. A visible red blush spread across her face.
\nJi Qingqing bit her lips. She shut her mouth and remained silent as she glared at him.
Lu Lixing carried her across the living room and brought her back to her room. He placed her on the bed and pulled the blanket over her. âHave a good rest!â
Then he immediately turned and left the room quickly. Having closed the door, he let out a deep breath, feeling relieved that he successfully avoided the disaster this time.
As the sound of the door closing sounded beside her ears, Ji Qingqing pulled the blanket over her head.
Shameless! Too shameless!
Lu Lixing, this guy is lightly pecking her?
To think that he would actually use this method to keep her mouth shut! If it wasnât for their difference in strength, she would have definitely made him utterly embarrassed by her words.
Just you wait! I will definitely find an opportunity to retaliate back!
