My Wife is My Life!

When Lu Lixing woke up, the warm sunlight was pouring through the window from outside. The sky was already very bright.

As soon he turned his head, he saw the same scene he would see every morning. Ji Qingqing’s arm was wrapped around his waist, and she was clinging onto him like a little octopus.

Lu Lixing gently pulled Ji Qingqing’s hand away from his waist. He got up from the bed and stretched his body. Then, he checked the time; it was seven o’clock.

This was the most he had slept in months. It was common for him to work overtime until early the next morning, and since he had the habit of waking up at six o’clock every day, he barely received any sleep. This was the first time he had slept for seven to eight hours.

Today was also the first time that he didn’t have a pile of paperwork waiting for him after waking up.

Now that he had temporarily put his work on hold, he realized that having such a leisurely and free lifestyle was not bad.

There was a knock on the door while he was immersed in his train of thought.

Assistant Wen Rou and two makeup artists were waiting outside the door. They had been waiting outside for quite a while. The makeup artists were growing impatient because if this were delayed any longer, they would be late.

Wen Rou didn’t want to abruptly wake up Ji Qingqing, so she refused to knock on the door to disturb her. As a result, they waited outside the door for a while.

They were both caught off guard when the door to Ji Qingqing’s hotel room was pulled open. A tall and handsome man stood at the door. He was wearing the pajamas provided by the hotel and his hair was messy. He still looked drowsy after just waking up.

The two makeup artists were shocked speechless when a handsome man had opened the door to the hotel room. When they glanced at each other, they could see their own shocked expression reflected in each other’s eyes.

How could you still have the galls to roll around the bedsheets with a man when you’re filming a movie?

The entertainment industry was surely chaotic.

Wen Rou glanced at the two makeup artists and instantly knew that they had misunderstood. She cleared her throat and asked, “President Lu, is Sister Qingqing still sleeping?”

“Yes.” Lu Lixing replied in a hoarse voice and then headed to the bathroom to wash up.

Wen Rou walked into the room before the other two and tried to wake up Ji Qingqing.

The two makeup artists quietly set up their cosmetics on the dressing table. They glanced at each other when they heard the toilet flush. One of them asked the other, “Who is President Lu?”

“I don’t know, but he should be…” The makeup artist finished the sentence by mouthing the word ‘financial backer’ silently.

Ji Qingqing groggily rolled to the other side of the bed. After Wen Rou gently yelled for her to wake up, she finally opened her eyes in a daze. She covered her head with the guilt at the bright light flooding in from the window and asked in a muffled voice, “What time is it?”

“Sister Qingqing, it’s already seven o’clock. It’s time for you to get up, apply makeup, and head for the crew.”

“The crew…” Ji Qingqing whispered. It seemed as if she had dozed off again when she suddenly opened her eyes in shock. The grogginess from her eyes instantly disappeared as she asked, “It’s already seven o’clock?”

She threw the blanket aside and grabbed onto the hair tie from the desk. She quickly tied her bed hair into a ponytail and hurriedly went into the bathroom.

“I’m late. I’m running late! Let me wash up first.”

There were some rattling noises from the bathroom.

“Ji Qingqing, that’s my towel…and that’s my cup! Put those down!”

“You should get out of the bathroom. Don’t stand in my way and hinder me. I’m running late!”

“Why didn’t you wake up earlier?”

Wen Rou and the two makeup artists watched as Ji Qingqing drove Lu Lixing out of the bathroom.

Lu Lixing still had some foam on his lips from brushing his teeth. Wen Rou smiled at the scene as she handed him some tissues. She felt that it was inappropriate for her to witness such a scene.

She summoned up the courage and asked, “Uhm…President Lu, should we wait in the corridor and wait until Sister Qingqing finished washing up and then head back in here?”

Lu Lixing wiped the foam in the corners of his mouth with the tissue. He had a calm expression on his face when he said, “There’s no need to do that!”

He sat on the sofa as soon as he finished speaking. Lu Lixing unlocked his tablet and scrolled through his mail.

After he declared that he was going on vacation yesterday, there were only a few work-related emails in his mailbox. There were two documents left from yesterday that needed his confirmation and there was also a reply from the vice president from the email he sent him last night.

Lu Lixing sent Chen Shuyi the audio recording of Deputy Director Lin’s claims last night. Chen Shuyi sent him an email at three o’clock in the morning last night, assuring him that he will find out the truth.

Apart from the sound of the running water in the bathroom, there were no other sounds in the hotel room.

Ten minutes later, Ji Qingqing emerged from the bathroom and sat in front of the dressing table.

The two makeup artists rushed forward and started applying makeup on her face.
