NovelEnglishLu Lixing nearly laughed when he heard that. Just as he was about to speak, a ‘ding’ sounded and the elevator’s doors opened.
Ji Qingqing lightheartedly walked out. The elevator was located at the center of the many hotel rooms. She took a glance at the room number, but she didn’t know if the room was located towards the left or right corridor. Just as she was about to check the room numbers on the left corridor, her hand was held by Lu Lixing who came out after her, and he walked them straight towards the right corridor.
Lu Lixing’s hand was wide and strong. As he tightly held her wrist, his hand didn’t budge at all.
“The room is in this direction.”
Since her hand was held by him, Ji Qingqing dragged her steps and followed behind him. Her whole body was pretty much pulled forward by Lu Lixing.
The door was opened by swiping the room card, and the two of them entered the room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was a suite with two bedrooms.
The room had been already prepared by the production crew. There were a couple of filming cameras placed at the corner, but the cameras haven’t been turned on yet.
Ji Qingqing looked around the surroundings and then smilingly turned to Lu Lixing. “If Mr. Lu has nothing else to add, I’ll be heading back to my room to rest first.”
Actually, if she’s angry, then it was still fine. But she’s not angry, so how is it possible for her to not feel anything? Lu Lixing thought.
It’s no big deal that Lu Lixing purposely hid this matter from her yesterday night. But that nonchalant tone of his yesterday night made her nearly think that he was being forced to get married to her.
How can a groom, who is about to marry, not interfere and allow their girlfriend to be lovey-dovey with other guys outside?
Her addressing him as ‘Mr. Lu’ which he hadn’t heard in a long while made Lu Lixing raise his eyebrows.
“Mr. Lu?” he asked.
“That’s right, we’re now attending this program. We are a fake couple and we’re fake dating!”
Lu Lixing laughed helplessly and raised his hands in resignation. “Alright, I apologize. I’m really sorry for not informing you in advance about this matter yesterday night.”
Originally, he wanted to discuss it yesterday night. But after hearing the reasons for Ji Qingqing indignantly refusing to attend this program – the wedding date is nearing and she doesn’t want to cause any trouble for him – the way that Ji Qingqing put it righteously, tugged a string deep in his heart.
She doesn’t want to cause trouble for him…
Lu Lixing’s mouth was slightly curved, revealing his current mood.
Ji Qingqing looked at him in surprise and then breezily replied, “Mr. Lu, you don’t have to apologize. I’m really flattered that you would come here and attend this program during your busy schedule. Although I don’t know your intention for attending this program, I don’t think it’s for my sake. But either way, it’s fine. Tomorrow I will cooperate well with Mr. Lu and act out the role of your girlfriend.”

Saying that she walked back into her room.
Lu Lixing smiled forcefully in his heart. Looks like yesterday night made her pissed.
He took a step forward. The door was already opened by Ji Qingqing but before she could step into the room, he backed her against the wall beside the door and softly asked, “You’re angry?”
Ji Qingqing purposely answered him passive-aggressively. “There’s no such thing. What’s there to be angry about? For Mr. Lu to disregard your position to accompany me, I can’t even thank you enough for it. Why would I be angry with you? How can I be so ungrateful?”
“No, you’re definitely angry,” Lu Lixing seriously insisted.
Ji Qingqing leaned against the wall. “I’m really not angry. Mr. Lu, you’re overthinking it. Actually, later on, I also thought it through. This program is very beneficial for me. If I miss this chance, the losses will outweigh the gains.” She thought seriously for a bit. “Mr. Lu, don’t worry, even if you hadn’t come, I’d still work hard. The other celebrities in this program are pretty good, for example, Lu Yao. Previously I worked with him before. There’s also Gu Feifan. Did you know? He acted as the second male in that ancient Chinese drama and he was really cool. If I could partner up with him…”
