Qingxi unlocked her phone to call Hongqui and ask him about the events that took place last night.
Before she could press the call button, her phone rang with an incoming call. It was from none other than Hongqui.
"Hello?" She said before sliding down inside the quilt again. She knew this would probably take a few minutes, and she wasn't ready to leave this oh so comfortable bed yet.
"Hello, Qingxi!! Are you okay!! How are you feeling now?!" Hongqui shouted from the other hand.
"I am not dead, you can speak slowly. Are you trying to tear my eardrums?" She said irritatingly.
"Ohh, sorry about that. I was just worried about you last night." He said in a much-low voice from before.
"Talking about last night. What did the hell happen? As far as I know, I have called you, right? Then how did I ended up in Lu mansion?" She asked.
"Last night. Don't tal
"Is there something I am missing here?" Lu Juan asked as he looked at his brother who was holding Qingxi's hand in his."Why are you pulling me? I can go by myself." Qingxi said for the umpteenth time."I know. I am just making sure that you don't fall because of the handover making you dizzy." Lu Jingzhe said as he pulled her chair and sat her gently before moving to his chair.As soon as Qingxi sat on the chair, a bowl of soup was placed in front of her, paired with some greasy pasta and lasagna.Qingxi quirked her eyebrows in question when the head chef said,"Our little master especially asked to make these for you. This soup and greasy food will help you in curing your hangover and the taste is also of your liking, spicy and greasy. Please have a taste and tell us if it's okay, madam."Qingxi turned towards Lu Jing, who was looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to
Entering her room, she immediately drafted the email that she had wanted to send to solve this issue but did not immediately hit the sent button. According to the plan, they will be extorting the money first and then will implement the rest of their plan.She was about to close her phone when she saw a message notification."Don't you dare forget that I am arriving today? Be ready at the airport to pick me up. Time- 12:30pm." The sender of the message had written."Sure," Qingxi replied when the idea of picking up the person on her bike came to her mind.When Qingxi went back downstairs, Lu Jingzhe and Lu Juan had already left the mansion to their respective companies.'Why did Juan did not take me with him, when he knew I had to come to the company today? Weird guy.' Qingxi thought before quickly getting ready to go to the company herself."Madam, young master has arranged the car for you already." One of the bodyguards said as he has been waiting at the door of the mansion for the l
"I am serious about it, doctor. Can you do surgery in one minute? It's an emergency." She said, uttering every word with great seriousness in her voice.The doctor rolled his eyes at her reaction before closing the antiseptic bottle he had used to clean the wound. He didn't dare to say anything offensive to the lady, knowing she was brought here by none other than business tycoon, young master Tang."What are you afraid of? Don't worry. I will protect you." Tang said, getting all serious when he saw how nervous Qingxi was behaving.Soon, the door of the emergency room was opened with a loud bang and few men rushed in standing in parallel lines on both sides making a partition. A man clad in a grey suit walked in between them with two guys following him.His eyes were dropped low, and his aura demanded submission and respect. Being a business tycoon and an aristocrat himself, Tang had met his shares of impo
"I am also going to leave now, brother. I have an issue on my side." Qingxi said, getting up from the chair."What kinda issue? Do you need me to handle it for you?" Mo Ming said."No. Just the Luo's created some trouble for me, and I think, I should stop caring soo much about the nonexistent family bond and retaliate a bit myself." She said"What do you mean retaliating? You're not gonna ask your man to kill that Xialing are you? Though I am not against the idea either." Mo Ming said."What? Oh my god, brother, I would never do that! I will never give anyone else the pleasure of killing her." Qingxi said exasperatingly.Jones rolled his eyes at her words and turned around to make a quick call."What exactly are you going to do?" Ming probed."She made Director reject me for the role of the second female lead. Well, I am gonna make
Reaching the front of Star high, she didn't bother to park her bike in the basement and left it on the side pavement only.Entering the lobby, she noticed something was weird with the atmosphere today.Everything was so, quiet. Squinting her eyebrows in confusion, she shook her head and berated herself to focus on the work that she is here to do when she heard a loud screeching.Halting in her steps, she turned towards the corridor from where she heard the voice. A crowd was gathered around, maybe to discuss some kind of situation.No wonder she felt something was strange, almost everyone was present here, and thus, no commotion was there in the lobby making it extremely quiet.Walking closer to the crowd, she saw what was happening.In between the crowd were two females, one was standing proudly while the other was almost on her knees pleading about something.
"Okay, so as everything has been decided, I'll be leaving now. Do update me when the case file is ready. I want to see it before it is being sent to Li." Qingxi said before standing."You going somewhere?" Lu Jingzhe immediately asked."Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention, I won't be coming back to the mansion today. I am going to pick up a friend from the airport, and then we'll be having a friend's day today. So, won't be coming back today. Please pass my message to Jing also. I'll message him personally in the evening too.""Oh, okay. I'll deliver the message." Lu Jingzhe said. Even though he wasn't happy about the fact that she was going to spend a night outside, he didn't say anything since he didn't want to look too implicating and interfering in her life, and thus, just nodded.After saying her part, Qingxi immediately left for the airport. She was very annoyed with this friend of hers that demanded
"Com'mon don't act like a chicken. It's just riding a mere bike. Do you think I will ride so rashly as to bring both of us to any trouble? You know I already am starting my acting career. I envy my face now." Qingxi said, not liking him being so repellent."Yeah, if it would've been anybody else, I surely would've sat by now. But knowing that it's you I will be sitting behind, I am more against the idea of traveling by bike. Don't I know that you were the queen of bike racing in country C. Even if you envy your face now, I am not a fool, I know that you can ride a bike and make a close shave even from a deaf cliff.My dear xixi, I know you are revenging on me because I called you to pick me up. But you have to understand my point of view too! I and my manager both knew, only you would be able to take us away safely from the prying eyes of paparazzi and see, you stood on our expectations. Please spare me this one time, and don't make me sit on this d
"Woah? Why does it look like you both are having a cold war again?" Lu Juan asked, looking at the two live statues sitting on the opposite sofa, not even looking at each other."Ask him? I am not in the mood to talk about it." Jingzhe said before going towards his room."Little tiger? What happened? Tell your uncle Juan, I'll try to help you." Juan said.Turning his face arrogantly to another side, he went back to his drawing.Lu Juan- "…"Not getting any reply from the stony duo, he turned towards butler Ho Chen to get the juicy details.Smiling awkwardly knowing that he was the next target of young master Lu Juan for some inside information, Butler Ho Chen, looked anywhere but him."Oh please, Butler Chen. Are you too not gonna tell me the details? Fine. I will also see, what will happen to Mr. Ho Chen when elder madam Lu will co
