“Liting, don’t say more. I was too abrupt just now, but it’s ok. It’ll be the same again when I change how I address him in the future.” Shen Weiwei’s all-compromising look really made Lu Liting feel utterly guilty. And he could feel an unknown rush of anger surge through him.
He couldn’t even protect his woman in front of his family members!
“Qingqing, I’m really sorry for just now. It was my fault for not holding the bowl properly. All those multiple NG scenes ended up wasting your time. Don’t worry. I will do my best in the next retake. I won’t create more trouble for you.”
Ji Qingqing looked at Lu Liting’s wolf and tiger-like stare. She knew that Shen Weiwei succeeded in shifting Lu Liting’s hatred onto her.
Lowering her head again to read the script, Ji Qingqing said casually, “What’s there to be sorry about. There’s no need for that. It’s very normal to have NGs. Even Brother Jiang Su, who won the Best Male Lead Award, had no less than ten NGs for a scene two days ago. We only got six NGs. This is nothing.”
Ji Qingqing didn’t look him straight in the eye. And that successfully made Lu Liting’s blood boil further. But he didn’t dare to be audacious towards Ji Qingqing in front of Lu Lixing. He suppressed his anger and comforted Shen Weiwei. “Weiwei, having NG is not your fault. There’s no need to apologize.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJi Qingqing nodded. “Yeah, the NG is the director’s decision, and the lighting, camera movement as well as the actors’ improvisations all played a huge role in it. It was not entirely due to your inability to hold the bowl well.”
“Ji Qingqing, don’t speak in such a deliberate way.”
She gave a quick glance at Lu Liting. She didn’t want to waste the effort to bother with him. It would be better for Lu Lixing to handle the job of dealing with him. “Director Zhou is probably annoyed by the long wait. I’m going to head over there first.”
Lu Lixing nodded.
Ji Qingqing turned and left.
Shen Weiwei also smiled at Lu Liting and said, “Liting, then I will go over there too. We will leave together after this last scene.”
“En, go on. I will wait for you.”
Shen Weiwei knew that Lu Liting would definitely explain his relationship with her to Lu Lixing today and make his girlfriend’s identity known to the public.
The girlfriend of the second master of Lu Corporation. She’d waited for so many years, and finally, it’s time.
After Shen Weiwei left, Lu Lixing finally lifted his eyes to look at him. “From the tone of your words, you are going to marry her?”
“Yes, I’m going to marry her!” Lu Liting said with conviction, “She’s been by my side for four years, knowing that I’m not rich. Even after she entered the entertainment industry and met all kinds of rich and high-status men, she still treated me as the same as she always had and never left me. She worked so hard for all these years and I want to give her the identity of I, Lu Liting’s wife!”
“To be honest, who you wish to marry is your personal affair. It is your decision and has nothing to do with me. However, if you marry her and wish to let her move into the Lu family, then you’ll have to get Grandpa’s consent first. So long as Grandpa disagrees the slightest bit, even if Shen Weiwei bears your child, she will still not enter the Lu house. Have I made myself clear?”
“I will talk to Grandpa about this.” After his words, he let out a cold laugh and continued, “Grandpa even let someone like Ji Qingqing into our family. How can he not let Weiwei in?”
Lu Lixing’s brows slightly furrowed. A tinge of displeasure was written clearly on his face as he raised his voice. “What did you say?”
At the critical juncture of wanting to marry Shen Weiwei, Lu Liting didn’t dare to go directly against Lu Lixing and remained silent.
Lu Lixing watched him coldly for a while.
“Tell me every misunderstanding you have about Qingqing today.”
“I don’t have any misunderstandings about her.”
“I remembered you saying before that when the both of you were dating, she left you because you had no money and got together with a second-generation rich person.” Lu Lixing narrowed his eyes and looked at him. “Do you think that everyone should all be like Shen Weiwei and stay and suffer with you?”
“I never thought of it that way.”
“Then what’s there to blame Ji Qingqing for leaving you?”
“I…”
“I remembered you said before that Ji Qingqing is a money-obsessed and profit-seeking person.”
