Chapter 304: Have I Ever Been Scared?
Lu Jingzhi looked at his wife and he noticed that her eyes were indeed red and puffy. She looked as though she had been seriously wronged.
He could not hold back and he leaned over to kiss her eyes gently.
“Oh no, they are here to make us jealous again,” Wen Luo replied as he covered his eyes.
“I am already used to it. They are always being affectionate in front of me and making me jealous and envious of them all the time,” Xu Beishen sighed. “Jiang Yuning, shouldn’t you be a matchmaker and find me a good man already?”
“We have to have a suitable candidate first, don’t we?” Jiang Yuning replied as she laughed mercilessly.
“Alright, we will look for the best candidate as soon as we get home tonight! We will arrange for a blind date immediately!” Xu Liangzhou stepped up to defend his sister immediately. “We will definitely find you a man who is better than Lu Jingzhi. I do not believe that this task is impossible.”
Everyone started laughing at that instant. In the meantime, the couple on the upper floor were on fire as they burned with pa.s.sion for one another.
That night, everyone felt the purity and beauty of love again…
It was really amazing to know that the couple had finally reconciled!
…
Later that night, Jiang Yuning, who had already drank quite a lot of liquor that night, sat in the back of the car with Lu Jingzhi as they headed back to the villa.
In fact, Jiang Yuning was already feeling a little dizzy and light headed even though she was not nearly as drunk as Wen Tong.
As they sat in the back seat, the little descendant could not keep her hands to herself and she started touching Lu Jingzhi.
“Second Brother…I want…to kiss…”
After hearing Jiang Yuning’s words, Lu Jingzhi looked at the driver and instructed him immediately, “Stop the car at the side of the road now.”
“Okay, princ.i.p.al.”
His wife sounded so coquettish. He did not want anyone else to hear her sounding like that.
“Mm…Second Brother.”
“Wait until we get home first,” Lu Jingzhi replied as he pulled Jiang Yuning closer to him and hugged her tightly in his arms.
“I don’t want to wait…”
“Are you asking for it? Huh?” Lu Jingzhi squeezed Jiang Yuning’s chin gently. “Be a good girl now.”
D*mn it. Why was it taking so long for them to get home?
The driver quickly returned to the driver seat and at this time, Jiang Yuning had already fallen asleep in the back seat. The only person to suffer in the end was Lu Jingzhi. Jiang Yuning was tugging so tightly onto his s.h.i.+rt that his s.h.i.+rt b.u.t.tons were already opened and his collarbone was also exposed. It took him quite a while to finally fall asleep.
This little descendant was really all over him.
He would teach her a lesson when they got home.
However, the driver could not understand the situation. This was because he could not even sense the slightest anger or frustration in the princ.i.p.al’s eyes. All he could see was the look of helplessness in Lu Jingzhi’s eyes.
Jiang Yuning was probably the only person in this entire world who could make the princ.i.p.al feel so lost and helpless.
…
When Jiang Yuning woke up early the next morning, she noticed that her body was aching and she was already having a headache.
And surprisingly, Lu Jingzhi was still lying in bed next to her.
Jiang Yuning nudged Lu Jingzhi gently before asking, “Second Brother, aren’t you going to work today?”
“No, I’m resting at home,” Lu Jingzhi replied.
“What happened?”
As soon as Jiang Yuning spoke, Lu Jingzhi laughed and replied, “Do you want me to help you to recall what happened last night?”
Jiang Yuning scratched her head as she had completely forgotten what happened after they returned to the villa last night.
She kept whining and demanding that Lu Jingzhi allowed her to record more videos of him. She even vomited all over Lu Jingzhi because of the amount of wine that she had drunk that night. After vomiting on him, she insisted on taking a bath with Second Young Master Lu and she had almost drowned herself in the process.
Last night was really very exciting and eventful.
“Second Brother…did I do anything to you last night?”
“We slept,” Lu Jingzhi replied as he tried to avoid the conversation. However, there were some suspicious bruises and wounds on his arms and shoulders.
Jiang Yuning tried to recall what happened and she suddenly felt incredulous.
What kind of wine did the Gao family serve her last night?
Jiang Yuning rubbed her nose before she forced herself to get out of bed.
At this time, Vera was extremely bored as she waited on the sofa in the living room. As soon as she saw Jiang Yuning walking down the stairs, Vera greeted her immediately. “Do you know what time it is right now? You slept all the way till noon!”
“Cough. Cough…”
Jiang Yuning suddenly remembered how she used forced against Lu Jingzhi last night.
“Why are you looking for me?”
“Why else would I be looking for you? To discuss your itinerary and activities! Didn’t you promise Director Mong that you would allow him to test you on your skills and knowledge before you officially begin filming ? Director Mong has already arranged for a teacher to a.s.sess your skills the day after tomorrow. After the exam, you will also have to meet a client who is interested to sign you up for a watch endors.e.m.e.nt on Monday. Lastly, the final issue of is set to be recorded next Wednesday…” Vera replied as she gave Jiang Yuning an overview of her entire schedule for the upcoming week.
“Alright, I got it,” Jiang Yuning replied as she nodded her head.
Vera looked at Jiang Yuning as some thoughts ran through her mind.
“If it is possible, I hope that you will be able to win some awards next year.”
“Hmm, did something happen to make you think this way?” Jiang Yuning asked as soon as she heard Vera’s words. “Did anyone do anything again?”
“No, nothing happened. I am just worried because I saw Hua Xin at the company earlier today and I felt that she was eyeing me in an extremely strange manner. Furthermore, there are already several newcomers in the entertainment industry who have recently risen up the ranks. One of them is taking the exact same route and career path as you. I believe that she is trying to cut corners and follow in your footsteps to become famous, and it seems as though whatever she is doing is working out pretty well for her.”
After listening to Vera’s words, Jiang Yuning laughed indifferently. “So, are you afraid that she will affect my popularity?”
“You will soon be filming for at least three or four months without any exposure to the public. Moreover, the script that you have chosen is not the hot idol drama genre that wins the heart of the younger population. Isn’t it normal for me to feel afraid and threatened?”
“Have I ever been scared?” Jiang Yuning asked as she tapped Vera gently on her shoulder. “The entertainment industry is a place where newcomers and new artistes are debuting almost every day. Haven’t you gotten used to it?”
It was normal for Vera to feel a sense of crisis.
After all, Jiang Yuning was involved in too few works.
As soon as she was done with the variety program, her exposure to the public would be greatly reduced.
When Shen Yichen called Vera over for a meeting earlier today, it was to discuss what they were to do and what actions they should take to increase Jiang Yuning’s exposure rate to the public once she joined the filming cast for a few months.
“Just show me the information and details of these newcomers,” Jiang Yuning told Vera in a relaxed manner. “I will study their backgrounds before we decide if we need to worry about them being a threat at all, okay?”
“Alright then, Yuning. Although I trust in you and your abilities, sometimes the choices that you make are really risky and unexpected. It makes me afraid at times. However, I am certain that you will definitely give your best whenever you are committed to something. Therefore, I am relieved. You can also be rest a.s.sured that I will definitely fight for you all the way to the end as long as I see a good resource at hand.”
Jiang Yuning looked at the serious expression on Vera’s face and she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
“Vera, you can rest a.s.sured that as long as you a.s.sign a task and fight for a resource for me, I will definitely give my best and put all of my effort into it to ensure its completion and success.”
In fact, the reason Vera was so stressed was that for the past two days, there had been an explosion of a few new television dramas. Moreover, since stopped broadcasting for the week, Jiang Yuning’s media index had been greatly suppressed by the newcomers.
Moreover, there were also some new artistes who were trying to figure out and mimic Jian Yuning’s career path.
What was even worse was that the jewelry endors.e.m.e.nt that Vera had successfully fought and won over for Jiang Yuning a few days ago had been taken away from them this morning.
This was terrible.
Every agent would do all that they could to fight for resources and obtain them for their own artistes so that they could gain the fame and popularity that they needed.
They would not back down even if the matter were to be made public.
However, Vera did not tell Jiang Yuning any of these because she had always reported only good news to her, in order not to make her worry.
Jiang Yuning had finally gained a better reputation for herself and Vera believed that she could not be so easily replaced…
But robbing her of her resources?
Did Vera really think that Jiang Yuning could not tell that she was frustrated and angry?
