NovelEnglish“I heard from the director that Miss Ji arrived on set yesterday, right?”
“Yes. I arrived at the hotel at 6 o’clock yesterday afternoon. It was already late, so I didn’t want to disturb the crew by coming to visit them yesterday.”
“Did Mr. Lu arrive with you yesterday? I heard that Mr. Lu is a complete workaholic. I can’t believe he’s willing to push aside his work to come here.”
Ji Qingqing picked up a piece of humphead wrasse fish meat with his chopstick and replied casually, “He’s here on vacation.”
“He’s on vacation?”
Qi Jingyun and Jiang Su froze when they heard her response.
Why would he come to such a remote city to vacation? There isn’t even one five-star hotel located in this area.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was the first time they’ve heard that people would come to a remote area like this to vacation.
“Why aren’t you eating?” Ji Qingqing stared at the solemn expression on Lu Lixing’s face and put a piece of fish meat in his bowl.
Qi Jingyun worked in the entertainment industry for many years, so she was very experienced at observing people. She noticed that Ji Qingqing’s action was very skillful and natural when she picked up vegetables and meat and put in Lu Lixing’s bowl. It was not something that could be mastered and by doing it once or twice.
She secretly wondered whether the two have been staying together for a while already.
“Oh right, grandpa has called me this morning. He asked me why his call couldn’t go through this morning. So, I gave him Brother Qin’s phone number. Did you receive the call from grandpa yet?”
“Yes.”
“Did anything important happen?”
“No.”
Qi Jingyun and Jiang Su, who was sitting across from them was surprised by their conversation. Have they met each other’s parents already?
Didn’t Ji Qingqing have a very intimate and close relationship with Gu Shaoyu more than a month ago?
“Grandpa’s health is not doing so well, so his knees would hurt every time it rains. I heard that there is a local wine that is very effective for joint pain.”
“Ordinary medicine is useless to treat grandpa’s chronic ailment.”
“I know, but I just want to bring a few bottles back for him. I want him to try it and see if it actually works.”
“Do as you wish then.”
Jiang Su and Qi Jingyun no longer had an appetite. They casually ate a few bites of their meal before putting down their chopsticks in an embarrassed manner.
“Miss Ji and Mr. Lu, thank you for the meal. I’m full now, so I’ll be leaving. When I have the chance, I’ll invite the two of you out for a meal to repay you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJi Qingqing smiled and said, “It’s alright.” They have so many dishes; it was impossible for her and Lu Lixing to finish them all.
Ji Qingqing’s gaze suddenly fell on Qi Jingyun’s thin waist. Then, she recalled the time when Lu Lixing had accidentally touched her not-so-thin belly and put down her chopsticks, “I’m done eating too.”
——“You have failed to have lunch with your wife, Ji Qingqing. After having five life points deducted from your health, you currently have 0.5 hours to live.”

The chopsticks in Lu Lixing’s hand broke in half again.
“Didn’t I share a meal with her for lunch? Doesn’t that mean that I have completed the mission?”
——“You have failed the mission because outsiders were present.”
Lu Lixing, “…”
Lu Lixing looked at Jiang Su and Qi Jingyun who were about to get up with an unfriendly gaze. A cool breeze suddenly blew past them, making goosebumps rise on their arm.
“Brother Jiang Su, I will be filming a scene with you this evening. If you have time, can I practice with you beforehand?”
Earlier this morning, Jiang Su and Qi Jingyun filmed a scene together and were scolded countless times by Director Zhou in front of everyone. Ji Qingqing believed that if she didn’t practice the scene with Jiang Su in advance, Director Zhou would scold her until she bled out from her ears once filming started.
