Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Lu Shaoming sat on the long bench in the washroom, and Ning Qing stood on her tiptoes to help him shave his moustache.
It was the first time that Ning Qing was helping a man shave. She put shaving cream on him, lathered up some white foam, and used her small hand to hold the razor to help him shave his moustache.
Her small and gentle hand lifted his strong jaw up and turned his face sideways. She took a long time to start, and her hands were shaking.
“What are you doing? Don’t waste time.” Lu Shaoming gave her a pat on her small b.u.t.t to hurry her up.
“I am a little afraid; will I draw blood?”
“You won’t. Do it casually.” Lu Shaoming held onto her small hand and guided her to shave his face lightly.
His sharp chin touched the blade and the cold and firm texture was clearly sent into Ning Qing’s small palm. Ning Qing felt her small face blush for no reason, and she bit her lip and followed his instructions to help him shave his moustache seriously.
Actually him with a bit of stubble was even more mesmerizing.
“Ning Qing, I am going on a business trip today. I will be back tomorrow. If Mu Yunfan follows the butler to go back to Singapore, then the matters involving him will have come to an end. If he is unwilling to go back…”
Ning Qing continued his words and said, “If he is unwilling to go back, then you will provoke him like you did yesterday. He will definitely use the opportunity of your absence to take action against me.”
As she spoke, Ning Qing bent beside Lu Shaoming’s ears to whisper something.
Lu Shaoming’s deep and dark eyes shone with a hot glow. He stretched out his hand to hold onto her slim arm to kiss her. “My little wifey is so smart.”
Ning Qing quickly pushed him away and said, “Sit properly. Don’t cover my face with bubbles from your face.” Ning Qing raised the razor blade in her hands. “I do have a weapon in my hands.”

The girl’s small face was clean and attractive. Her dark s.h.i.+ny hair was hanging in front of her chest as she was bending down, and there were a few strands inside the collar of her s.h.i.+rt. They stuck onto her exquisite collarbone. It was attractive and beautiful.
Lu Shaoming felt his heart soften. He extended his large hand to touch her face. The amber lights accentuated her beautiful features, and there her soft, thin layer of hair was translucent and bright.
“Ning Qing, if I really battled it out with Mu Yunfan, would you get upset?”
“If he doesn’t stop with what he is plotting, then we must nip the problem in the bud. We will strike when the iron is hot. That’s how it is between us now.” As she spoke, Ning Qing lifted her gaze, and her eyes were sparkling like bright star in the night sky, s.h.i.+mmering yet gentle. “There is only one thing, Shaoming. Please try to limit the damage as much as possible.”
Try not to harm Mu Yunfan.
After all, he was once her Older Brother Yunfan.
Lu Shaoming tugged Ning Qing into his embrace and nodded. “Okay.” He agreed.
“Hmm, thank you, Hubby.” Ning Qing finished shaving his moustache for him, and she used a hot towel to help him wipe his face. She then went forward to kiss his handsome face.
Lu Shaoming hugged her waist and adjusted her posture for her, his large hand went through her flowing locks, and he held onto the back of her head and kissed her.
“Ay, Lu Shaoming, stop kissing me. You have to go to the office.” Ning Qing quickly pushed his chest with her little hands, not allowing him to kiss her.
…
Ning Qing went to school, and this time, the school was peaceful and quiet. Neither Mu Yunfan nor Xu Junxi appeared.
Ning Qing was peaceful and happy, but she suddenly thought about Lin Xuemei. She has not contacted her for a few days, and Ning Qing did not know how she was doing now.
Ning Qing took out her phone to make a call, but Lin Xuemei did not pick up her phone. She ran to the cla.s.sroom to look for her, but her cla.s.smate told her that Lin Xuemei was hanging about in the bars recently, and she hadn’t come to school for many days already.
Ning Qing was worried. She took leave from the school and took a taxi to go to the bar.
Once she got there, she found Lin Xuemei sitting at the bar. Ning Qing ran forward and patted her shoulder. “Xuemei, Xuemei, what is wrong with you? Are you drunk?”
Lin Xuemei was extremely drunk. She swatted Ning Qing’s small hand away and said with a drunken slur, “Who are you? Get lost. I don’t need you to care about me.”
“Xuemei, you are drunk. I will bring you home.” Ning Qing helped Lin Xuemei up and brought her out of doors of the bar.
The two of them boarded the taxi, and Lin Xuemei was mumbling to herself, “Why, why did Mu Yunfan want to cheat me? Doesn’t he like me? It was my first time. I gave my first time to him.”
Ning Qing felt uncomfortable. Although Mu Yunfan had played with Lin Xuemei’s feelings, she was one of the reasons behind it, and it could be considered that she harmed Lin Xuemei by getting into this predicament.
Because Lin Xuemei was her friend, Mu Yunfan had targeted her to complete his motives.
“Xuemei, everything will turn out fine. Everything will be fine.”
…
The two of them went to Lin Xuemei’s condo where she lived alone. Ning Qing placed Lin Xuemei on the bed, and she went to the kitchen to cook soup to sober Xuemei up. But when she walked to the living room, she had a whiff of a fragrance. She instinctively knew that something was wrong, and she stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and nose, but it was already too late. Her eyes blacked out, and she fainted on the floor.
As her eyes closed, she saw the door of the washroom open, and a pair of black handmade leather shoes appeared in her line of sight.
It was a man.
…
Ning Qing’s senses went into a daze. She felt someone holding her up gently in the darkness, and the person placed her onto the sofa. “Qingqing… Qingqing…” She did not know who was calling her. She could not speak. She felt the black shadow coming towards her; someone was kissing her.
She fiercely resisted. She turned her face sideways to duck and tears flowed out from her eyes.
Shaoming.
Lu Shaoming.
…
“Ning Qing, Ning Qing.” Someone was. .h.i.tting Ning Qing’s small face gently, she opened her eyes in a blur, and there was a handsome face before her eyes. She was very familiar with the voice; it was Lu Shaoming.
Lu Shaoming helped her up to sit up, Ning Qing touched her forehead, and then quickly checked the clothes.
“Ning Qing, everything is fine. Everything is going according to plan. I brought people here in time.” Lu Shaoming comforted her.
It was only then that Ning Qing felt relieved. There were 4 bodyguards standing outside the door of this small condominium unit. Both Lu Shaoming and Zhu Rui were present.
Ning Qing thought of the pair of black leather shoes, and she said nervously, “Who made me faint?”
Lu Shaoming did not speak, and a familiar voice rang out. “Ning Qing, what is going on exactly?”
Ning Qing looked over. She was taken aback; it turned out to be…Xu Junxi.
Xu Junxi was standing in the living room.
Xu Junxi shrugged her shoulders in a daze and said, “I was actually driving on the road and I coincidentally saw you help a girl walk out from the bar and then board a taxi. I was worried about you, so I followed you all the way here. I saw that the door of the condominium was open, so I walked into the living room. I then saw you lying on the sofa alone. I went forward to call you, and at this moment, Young Master Lu brought his people along and came in.”
Lu Shaoming nodded his head and said, “That was what happened. When I came in, President Xu was calling out to you.”
“Young Master Lu, Ning Qing, what is all of this? I saw that you all came prepared, what are you two plotting to do?”
Ning Qing slowly stood up, and walked in front of Xu Junxi. She said, “Recently, Mu Yunfan has many intentions towards me, and today his butler is escorting him back to Singapore. I was afraid that he would take action, and I asked Shaoming to intentionally go on a business trip to fool everyone. We would then wait for him to take action. I contacted Lin Xuemei today, and as I expected, when I entered into the living room of her place, I had a whiff of a fragrance, and fainted. Shaoming rushed in to catch the person. I thought it would be Mu Yunfan, but I didn’t think it would be you, President Xu.”
Xu Junxi took a step backwards and said, “I already explained what happened just now. Ning Qing, I am innocent.”
Ning Qing look at Xu Junxi who was looking panicked yet sincere. She turned her head around to ask Lu Shaoming for his thoughts.
Lu Shaoming looked behind him, and Zhu Rui went forward and said, “President, we have just received news. Mu Yunfan is already on the way to the airport with his butler.”
So Mu Yunfan was willing to stop with his antics?
Then what was going on with Xu Junxi?
He really cast a spell on her and wanted to take advantage of her?
Actually Ning Qing understood Mu Yunfan’s personality. She already knew that Mu Yunfan would definitely take action today, and she and Lu Shaoming worked together to expose his tricks, but they did not expect to catch Xu Junxi instead.
Xu Junxi was interested in her. Did he also want to take advantage of her?
For a moment, Ning Qing suspected every person around her.
“Ning Qing.” Lu Shaoming went forward and cupped Ning Qing’s small shoulders to give her support. He would trust her judgement.
“Ning Qing, you have to trust me, I would not harm you. I only want you to be happy. After what happened yesterday, I already planned to stay far away from you and wish you well silently. This is all just a coincidence.” Xu Junxi explained himself.
Ning Qing looked at the pair of black handmade leather shoes that he had on him and kept silent.
“Ning Qing, its okay. Don’t think anymore. Let’s leave this place.”
“Okay.” Ning Qing touched her forehead. It hurt a little. The strength of the substance was very strong, and her face was a little pale. “Let me go to the washroom to wash my face.”
“Sure, let me accompany you there.”
Lu Shaoming leaned on the door and looked at Ning Qing wash her face by the sink. At this moment, Zhu Rui walked forward and said. “President, there is a call from the President of CT.”
Lu Shaoming took the phone into his hands and looked Ning Qing worriedly. Ning Qing smiled gently and said, “It’s fine, Shaoming. I also need to use the toilet. You are not allowed to peek.”
Ning Qing smiled as she closed the door.
Lu Shaoming did not leave. He stood at the door to pick up the phone and made simple talk for a while before he hung up.
He stretched out his hand to knock on the door. “Ning Qing, are you done?”
There was no response from inside.
Lu Shaoming was high on alert, his eyes became fierce, and he placed his large hand on the handle wanting to open the door.
But the door was locked from the inside.
“President, what is wrong?” Zhu Rui and Xu Junxi noticed that something was wrong, and all came forward. “Someone come quick, open this door.”
“There is no need for that.” Lu Shaoming stretched out his long legs and kicked the door. This powerful kick made the door of the washroom open up.
Some bodyguards came forward to help, and they managed to open the door within a minute.
The washroom was empty.
Ning Qing disappeared.
“Ning Qing? Where is Ning Qing?” Xu Junxi’s eyes contracted, and he called out her name in fear.
Lu Shaoming went forward and bent down to pick up one flat white boot up from the floor. This was what Ning Qing was wearing, and now it was on the ground.
“President, Madam was kidnapped.” The bodyguard opened the window in the washroom and said, “Although we have surrounded this condominium, this is the 14th floor, we did not cover this window. I can see that the window below is open. The kidnappers probably hid inside this washroom and never left, and there were their helpers downstairs.”
There was no need for the bodyguard to say it. Lu Shaoming knew what had occurred already. He stood outside the door to take a call for at most two minutes, and there were no abnormal sounds coming from inside.
But Ning Qing was kidnapped.
There could only be one possibility. This was something out of an elaborate plan, and he fell for it totally.
At this moment, Zhu Rui took a call and said, “President, things are bad. There was a source from the airport that confirmed, the butler boarded the car with a body double of Mu Yunfan. Mu Yunfan himself has disappeared already.”
“Young Master Lu, what is going on exactly? Ning Qing was kidnapped by Mu Yunfan?”
Lu Shaoming had a calm expression, and he had a cold smile while he said, “Mu Yunfan made use of you to create a false impression and force me to appear. He then hid in the washroom and showed his true intentions. He kidnapped Ning Qing away; he has plotted this well.”
“Young Master Lu, what does Mu Yunfan want to do with Ning Qing exactly? Would he hurt Ning Qing?”
Lu Shaoming curled his lips, and his dark eyes were sparkling and s.h.i.+mmering. This has turned into something he could not comprehend.
…
“Ning Qing, Ning Qing.”
Ning Qing was awoken by someone, and she opened her eyes.
