Chapter 486: It’s Raining, I Miss You
The university’s music night would be held on the 6th of next month and Jiang Yuning requested for Vera to get her a ticket for the front row seat of the concert.
Vera put some thought into it before she finally contacted the organizer to invite Jiang Yuning to attend the concert as a guest partic.i.p.ant instead. This would not be an issue since Jiang Yuning had always maintained a good relations.h.i.+p with Jin Mingchen after all. Vera also felt that this would be a good opportunity for Jiang Yuning to maintain her popularity as she was busy filming her drama.
“Since you feel so uneasy about the situation, then you can just join them on stage.”
“But I have not danced in so many years. Especially…those kind of hot dance,” Jiang Yuning replied. She felt that she was already getting older and all that she knew how to do right now was to practice martial arts. After all, she already feel extremely exhausted from filming and practicing her martial arts every day.
“Practice then,” Vera replied without any hesitation at all.
“Are you crazy? Where am I going to find time to practice dancing?” Jiang Yuning refused immediately without thinking any further. “Do you know how much I wish that I have three heads and six arms right now?”
“Alright then, think about how it would be like when you are glowing and standing out on that stage. Jiang Yuning, don’t forget that you are trying to build up an image as an all-rounded artiste. The Ginger Candies even believe that you can fly! Are you really telling me that you are too timid to go on stage to dance right now? Moreover, if you partic.i.p.ated in the music festival, then the night would be entirely different. Don’t you want the young master of the Lu family to have a good first experience? Anyway, I have already made the necessary arrangements with the agency so you have no room to refute further…”
Jiang Yuning knew that it was pointless for her to continue struggling. Therefore, she finally gave in and compromised before she asked, “All I want to know is just one simple question. How many people would be attending the music festival?”
“Not many. Only about ten thousand people.”
Jiang Yuning was startled. She gasped before she replied, “Are you trying to change my career?”
“Since you want to be an all-rounded artiste, then you have to act like one,” Vera replied indifferently.
“I think you need a beating.”
Jiang Yuning did not feel like laughing at all. In fact, she really felt like cursing at Vera.
However, Jiang Yuning really did not expect that w.a.n.g Jing would actually arrange for Lu Jingqi to make his first appearance as a part of the boys’ group at such a big music festival.
“You should really practice hard to ensure that the Ginger Candies can witness a good performance that you put up for them. I think that the sight of you singing and dancing will definitely be a pleasant surprise for the Ginger Candies.”
At this time, Vera finally succeeded in convincing Jiang Yuning.
“Alright then, give me some time to practice my dancing skills. You can also send a teacher over to guide me in dancing during my free time.”
“I had already spoken to Hou Da before talking to you so you don’t have to be so miserable anymore,” Vera replied as she laughed out loud. “Hou Da said that she knows you have been working a lot recently and that she will make some adjustments to the schedule so you can have some free time to yourself.”
Jiang Yuning’s mood was very complicated after finding out that she would be performing on stage.
Although she had partic.i.p.ated in certain variety programs over the past year, she did not have to perform directly on stage.
The last time that she performed on stage was during the annual event at B University.
Perhaps she should be looking forward to this new experience instead…
…
It was still raining heavily in Luo City after Jiang Yuning was done recording the latest issue of .
According to their initial plan, Jiang Yuning should return to the film set as soon as she was done recording the episode. However, after exiting the television station, she asked the young paparazzo to secretly send her back home.
It was already seven thirty at night when they arrived at Royal Dragon Villa. The heavy rain had already gotten lighter but the surrounding area felt even colder because of the sea breeze.
“Sister Yuning, remember to keep your promise. You can only steal a glance at Brother-in-Law but you cannot be greedy, okay? We have to rush back to the set before midnight,” the young paparazzo reminded Jiang Yuning as the both of them continued sitting in the car. “Don’t tell me that you can’t bear to leave and want to stay the night as soon as you catch a glimpse of brother-in-law.”
“I got it,” Jiang Yuning replied as she waved her hand in an irritated manner.
Since she would only be catching a glimpse of Lu Jingzhi, she did not want to enter the house. Therefore, she walked directly towards the tall gla.s.s window.
At this time, Lu Jingzhi was reading in the living room.
He was wearing a dark blue turtleneck sweater as he held the book in his hand. His legs were tilted and he was holding a black fountain pen in his hand.
Wow. This man was even more handsome when he was serious.
Jiang Yuning froze in place as she stared at the man sitting behind the gla.s.s window. It was just as the young paparazzo had said. She did not feel like going back anymore.
After thinking for a short while, Jiang Yuning returned to the car before asking the young paparazzo for a sticky note and a pen before she scribbled a few words on that piece of paper.
After that, she returned to the gla.s.s window before pasting the sticky note on the gla.s.s window. Jiang Yuning then took out her cell phone before making a phone call to Lu Jingzhi.
Lu Jingzhi who was sitting in the living room, quickly answered the phone as soon as he saw the name on the caller ID. “h.e.l.lo? Are you already done recording the next episode of the variety program?”
“Yes,” Jiang Yuning replied as she nodded.
“Are you going back to the set already?”
“Yes,” Jiang Yuning replied again.
“I got it. It is raining so please be careful on your way back.”
“Second Brother…it’s raining, I miss you…” After that, Jiang Yuning turned around before walking down the steps and heading back into the car. As soon as she got into the car, she signaled for the young paparazzo to start driving immediately because she was afraid that she could not bear to leave if she waited for even another second.
“I miss you too.”
“Don’t drink so much tea at night. Otherwise, you will not be able to sleep well tonight,” Jiang Yuning said before hanging up the phone.
As soon as he heard Jiang Yuning’s words, Lu Jingzhi quickly turned his gaze towards the door before walking towards the door. After opening the door, he realized that there was no one there and that there was only a piece of sticky note stuck on the gla.s.s window.
“I came by just to see your face. I miss you, my dearest. Goodnight.”
Lu Jingzhi could not stop the corners of his lips from curving into a smile as soon as he read the message left behind by his little descendant.
The little descendant could be really romantic when she wanted to be.
After that, Lu Jingzhi sent a text message to Jiang Yuning: “It was a really sweet message but the person is not serious.”
Jiang Yuning sighed after reading the message. She knew that her second brother must be feeling even more terrible at this time.
A few days later, Vera sent a dance teacher over to Jiang Yuning. Of course, Jiang Yuning could only practice her dancing after she was done filming all her scenes every day.
On the other side, w.a.n.g Jing was still giving Lu Jingqi more and more difficult challenges. However, due to his exceptional talent and skills, Lu Jingqi was able to overcome and accept most of the challenges posed to him.
His teammates could not help but to cheer and applaud for him because of his outstanding performance. However, the blue-haired boy always seemed to have no interest in Lu Jingqi’s achievements at all.
This was because Young Master Han had recently given him a new mission. He wanted the boy to look for an opportunity to bring Lu Jingqi out of the agency so that Young Master Han could get some new materials to use against the Lu family.
As soon as he heard Young Master Han’s request, the boy with the blue hair felt that this person was insane…
“Xiyuan, why are you standing there in a daze? Don’t you think that our little brother is simply amazing?” the captain of the team asked the boy with the blue hair when he saw him sitting in a daze at the corner of the studio.
“Great! Of course, he is really amazing.” But who would be able to comprehend the situation that he was currently in?
“Based on the progress that he is making, Jingqi will definitely be able to perform on stage soon. At that time, we will be able to show those sc.u.mbags and haters how great Jingqi really is!”
“Yes…” Xiyuan replied as he forced a smile. This was because he was thinking of the ways that he could deceive Lu Jingqi into going out of the agency with him.
It was already ten o’clock at night when they finally finished their dance practice.
Xiyuan struggled for a long time in his own bedroom before he finally gathered enough courage to walk over to Lu Jingqi’s room.
After knocking on the door, the person who opened the door was none other than Lu Jingqi’s personal a.s.sistant who had been hired by the Lu family.
“What is the matter?”
“I want to invite Jingqi to go out for a meal with me…I am still feeling very grateful towards him because he saved me the last time. I have always felt very sorry for him,” Xiyuan quickly explained. He did not dare to look directly at Lu Jingqi’s personal a.s.sistant because he had a guilty conscience.
“It’s okay. You don’t have to feel bad, it is Jingqi’s nature to be so kind hearted. Furthermore, he has already fallen asleep…” the personal a.s.sistant quickly explained.
“Well, it’s okay. We can go out for dinner another day, then…”
