Chapter 226
As she thought about it, Lu Lixing’s silhouette suddenly appeared in Ji Qingqing’s mind and she grinded her teeth.
Other people’s wives wanted to attend this program and the husband anxiously followed and came over. Meanwhile, Lu Lixing on the other hand totally didn’t care about it at all!
Is he so assured that she won’t do anything at all?
Lu Lixing just you wait. Today if I don’t succeed in fastening a green hat on your head, I won’t be called Ji Qingqing!
The filming location was a little far off from the city. It was located at the seaside resort villa and after half an hour of driving, they finally reached their destination.
The program staff had already set up the next day’s venue at an empty plot of land in the resort villa.
The minute Ji Qingqing got out of the car, the staff members immediately rushed forward.
“Miss Ji, please follow me. Our director is waiting for you.”
As the other staff members helped to unload Ji Qingqing’s luggage, Qin Yue accompanied her and walked beside her.
“Have all the guests arrived?” Ji Qingqing asked.
That staff member glanced at the guestlist. “Miss Shen and Mr. Lu haven’t arrived yet.”
As for the ‘Mr. Lu’ who hadn’t arrived yet, Ji Qingqing automatically heard it as Lu Yao.
Ji Qingqing nodded and followed the staff member to a resting area in the resort villa. The staff member went to knock on the door and after they heard a ‘please enter,’ he opened it. He, himself, didn’t enter and instead, stood at the side to usher Ji Qingqing inside.
Ji Qingqing thanked him and entered the door.
The resting area wasn’t that big. When she looked ahead, it was crowded with people sitting inside.
A balding middle-aged man wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses stood up when he saw Ji Qingqing enter. “Miss Ji, everyone was just talking about you when you entered.”
The program《Let’s date》was originally supposed to be filmed yesterday. However, because a celebrity pair backed out at the last minute as their filming schedules clashed with the program, that was why Director Wang then decided to set his sights on Lu Lixing.
Director Wang at the very least had been inside the entertainment industry for many years. When there was a slightest breeze of gossip he would believe to a certain extent. From Director Zhou he heard that when Ji Qingqing filmed her drama, Lu Lixing followed her over. And from that, he sensed that something was going on between them.
As expected, he guessed correctly.
Ji Qingqing smiled apologetically. “Director, there was a traffic jam on our way here so I arrived late. My apologies.”
Director Wang was rather understanding. “No worries, go find a place to sit.” Saying that he also beckoned Qin Yue to sit down at the side.
Ji Qingqing wasn’t familiar with the other people in the room. The only ones she knew were her boss Chen Shuyi and the stone-faced Lu Yao who was sitting at a corner.
The minute she spotted Lu Yao, Ji Qingqing thought to herself, This guy is an ice mountain, who knows who will be dating this ice mountain…
“President Chen, great to see you.”
Chen Shuyi smiled. Towards his wife whom he had known since young, he had always been doting to her. “There’s no need to be so formal, you can just call me Shuyi.”
Beside him, the lady dressed in a refreshing style coldly hmphed.
Chen Shuyi’s smile stiffened. Treating his wife too well made it easy for conflict to happen.
TL note: The cn slang used is ‘后院起火’ (backyard catches fire is loosely translated as ‘easy for conflict to happen’) means having internal conflicts and dispute.
In olden times it refers to the strife amongst concubines in a harem. Direct TL: Treating his wife too well made it easy for his backyard to catch fire.
He turned behind and whispered something in the lady’s ears.
Ji Qingqing reckoned that that lady was Chen Shuyi’s wife, Lin Zhen.
She had previously heard before that Chen Shuyi loved his wife deeply, to the point that Chen Shuyi left his family and went to strike out on his own just to marry her.
Thinking to here, Ji Qingqing couldn’t help but to study Lin Zhen more. She had delicate features on her palm-sized face but she didn’t feel childish. Her skin was clear and white, and when you looked at her, she definitely belonged to those kinds of unforgettable beauties.
