Ji Qingqing wanted to put down the shoes that she was carrying, but Lu Lixing glanced at her before he said, “Continue carrying the shoes.”
Ji Qingqing continued to hold onto her shoes and said in an aggrieved tone, “Hubby, will you believe me if I tell you that I’m innocent?”
——“Life value + 1, Host currently has eight hours to live.”
“I’m telling you the truth. I’m innocent! Ji Qingqing realized that she was acting somewhat unreasonable, so she calmed herself down before she stated, “I have nothing to do with this deal. I’ve been accused of something that I’ve never done. Hubby, you have to trust me.”
——“Life value + 1, Host currently has nine hours to live.”
Lu Lixing looked at her meaningfully and said, “You address me as ‘Mr. Lu’ when you don’t need anything, but whenever you run into trouble, you would address me as ‘hubby’. Ji Qingqing, it seems like you are pretty good at calculating, hm?”
“Isn’t it a hubby’s job to block the bullets…” Ji Qingqing muttered under her breath.
——“Life value + 1, Host currently has ten hours to live.”
Lu Lixing’s voice suddenly rose, “What did you just say?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJi Qingqing blinked her eyes innocently and said, “If you don’t like it when I address you as ‘hubby’, then I won’t address you that way anymore.”
Lu Lixing realized that he had shot himself in the foot. He froze for a moment before he said, “…That’s not what I mean.”
“Then what do you mean by what you had just said?”
Lu Lixing became disheartened as he fell silent.
“Fine, I apologize. I will withdraw what I had just said. Now, I want you to tell me your side of the story. I want to know the details.”
“Regardless of the importance of the details, I want you to tell me everything…”
His comment immediately shattered Ji Qingqing’s well-planned explanation.
How could Lu Lixing be so cunning? He made sure he had destroyed all her escape routes!
After much deliberation, Ji Qingqing finally resigned to fate. It seemed like she should explain her side of the story honestly.
“I truly didn’t know about this deal. Think about it, I was in a relationship with Gu Shaoyu at that time, so how could I…” Ji Qingqing suddenly realized that it was inappropriate to mention Gu Shaoyu in this conversation, so she immediately changed the flow of conversation, “I mean…I will never make a deal like that…”
Ji Qingqing realized that her explanation was not adequate enough.
How could an agent make a deal for their artist without their artist knowing about it? How could the agent come up with such an idea all by herself? If she were in Lu Lixing’s shoe, she believed that she wouldn’t believe her own explanations either. She sounded like she was merely pushing the blame onto someone else.
How could the original Ji Qingqing left such a big mess for her to clean up?
“I really didn’t know about this deal. I believe that Meng Xun had made this deal on her own accord. She probably went up to Deputy Director Lin to make this deal. Had I known the truth, then I wouldn’t have accepted this role!”
She raised her head and looked into LU Lixing’s eyes and asked, “Do you believe me? I’m not the kind of woman that would sell her body for money or to act in a movie.”
Lu Lixing didn’t immediately respond, instead, he stared at her quietly.
Ji Qingqing noticed that Lu Lixing had a suspicious expression on his face when he looked at her. It was the same expression he had when she was explaining who Wu Yanzu was to him. Ji Qingqing was disappointed; it seemed like he didn’t believe her at all.
She suddenly looked defeated and lonely while she said, “Forget it. There is no need for me to explain it anymore since you won’t believe what I tell you anyway. Just believe what you wish to believe then.”
The original Ji Qingqing was not an innocent person. Now that she replaced the original Ji Qingqing, she will have to accept the mess and the responsibilities that the original Ji Qingqing left behind.
“I believe you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA powerful and resounding voice resonated in her ears.
Ji Qingqing’s heart skipped a beat, and her dimmed eyes brightened instantly. She smiled brightly at him.
She knew that Lu Lixing was not someone that will blindly take a side without listening to both sides of the story!
“We’ve been together for a long time, yet you have never sold your body.”
Ji Qingqing, “…?”
Why did it seem like he was secretly hinting at something?
Ji Qingqing hugged her chest with her arms and watched Lu Lixing warily.
Could it be that he was interested in her?
He was a healthy man, but he was not allowed to touch his beautiful and delicate wife…
Once this thought crossed her mind, she suddenly realized that it was entirely possible that he felt that way about her.
“I think it’s better if I share a room with Wen Rou tonight.”
Lu Lixing wrapped his arm around her waist, pulled her onto the bed, and then covered her with the blanket.
“Go to sleep.”
