Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“Pak!” The CEO of Huayi Entertainment slapped his guard. “Let me enjoy myself? Are you trying to kill me? How many heads do I have to offend the Zhou family, how much money do I have to… compete with the Lu family.”
The CEO of Huayi Entertainment looked at the room door that was tightly shut and cold sweat covered his forehead. Lu Shaoming, I never thought that the man earlier was really the legendary Young Master Lu!
Lu Shaoming simply said, “The woman that you are looking for is in my room.” It revealed two things. First, he and Ning Qing had an ambiguous relationship. Second, she’s in my room. Go in if you dare.
How did Ning Qing know Lu Shaoming?
The CEO of Huayi Entertainment made it apparent that he had no guts. He wiped away his sweat and clenched his teeth. “Let’s go!”
The next morning, the sunlight shined through the curtain on Ning Qing’s eyes. Her long wing-like eyelashes fanned and she slowly opened her eyes.
She looked at the chandelier above her. She was confused for a moment. Where am I?
She closed her eyes and tried very hard to recall what happened the night before. The CEO of Huayi Entertainment threw her into the room and she escaped to the next room. Then, she got into the washroom and kissed…
“Ah!” Ning Qing screamed and suddenly sat up.
She looked at the clothes she was wearing. She didn’t change. She was still wearing the same outfit as yesterday. She got off the bed and jumped. She didn’t feel any different and she hadn’t been touched.
Ning Qing let out a breath of relief and touched her face. Her face was burning hot.
She really wanted to slap herself. Even though she was irritated by Xu Junxi and had too much to drink, she shouldn’t have let herself loose, she shouldn’t have done that with…
There was a blurry face that appeared in her mind. She, who was incredibly drunk the night before, couldn’t really recall the man’s appearance, but she remembered clearly that the man was very good looking. He was the most good looking man she had ever seen.
Her face could still feel the warmth of the man’s hand, and she could still hear his gentle voice reverberate in her ears. She touched her lips and she was so embarrassed. How could she be so shameless and do that with a stranger?
Luckily, he didn’t touch her. He must be a gentleman.
She shook her head and pushed the incident aside. Ning Qing walked to the window barefooted. She pulled open the curtains and looked at the beautiful scenery outside and basked in the brilliant sunlight. She spread her arms and took a deep breath. She exhaled and thought to herself, It’s a brand new day.
It was an accident last night. She let loose once. She got depressed once. She had to face the future positively.
Tomorrow will be better, Ning Qing! Keep fighting!
Ning Qing lifted the corners of her lips and smiled. She turned around and walked towards the door.
As she was about to exit, she suddenly saw that there was a man’s watch at the bedside table. She walked over and took the watch in her hand.
She had seen many expensive things when she was the young lady of the Ning family. Although she didn’t know the brand of the watch, she could tell that it was priceless.
She recalled the tall brawny figure that was walking at the forefront of a crowd of people. She guessed that he forgot and left it at the bedside table.
She put the watch in her bag and thought, When I get to the hotel lobby, I shall pass this to the manager.
When she made it to the hotel lobby, the manager wasn’t there and the receptionist apologized. “Miss, the client didn’t leave us any contact number. We can’t contact him. This watch looks very expensive so we can’t take care of it on your behalf. How about this, leave your phone number with us. If the lost owner were to come back to look for it, we will tell him to contact you.”
The receptionist was merely taking care of the situation according to her SOP. Ning Qing had no choice but to keep the watch and give out her phone number. “Then, I will take care of it for now. When he comes to look for it, please tell him to call me.”
