Chapter 143: Chapter 143

It would be too embarrassing if she were scolded in public.

“Okay, no problem.”

Jiang Su promised to help her readily; his attitude was very easy-going and free-spirited. He was someone who had worked in the entertainment industry for many years, so he knew what to say and how to act in front of certain people.

After he agreed to her request, he asked his assistant to bring a chair from his room and sat beside Ji Qingqing, “You can ask me anything that you don’t understand from the script. I’ll do my best to explain it to you.”

Ji Qingqing nodded her head eagerly.

Jiang Su had worked in the entertainment industry for eleven years and acted for nine of those years. He even won the best actor award. In terms of his acting skills, it was undeniable that he was one of the best actors in the industry.

Wen Rou cleaned up the leftovers from the table so that there was room for them. Ji Qingqing didn’t act too formal when interacting with Jiang Su, instead, she bravely asked him all the questions she had. The two fell into a serious discussion about the script.

Lu Lixing’s gaze was dark and gloomy while he stared at Jiang Su.

Director Zhou and Qi Jingyun walked out from inside the room and towards Ji Qingqing. The gloomy and dissatisfied expression on his face from earlier this morning was completely gone. He said with a patient smile on his face, “Qingqing, the three of you have a scene together this afternoon and later this evening, so you should practice together.” With that said, he turned to Lu Lixing and said, “President Lu, would you like me to take you on a tour around our filming set?”

With only 0.5 life value left, Lu Lixing expressionlessly forced himself to spat out these words, “No. Need.”

He continued speaking, “I know that Director Zhou must already be swamped with work, there’s no need to show me around. I’m just here to observe and learn.”

Director Zhou smiled and said, “That’s alright with me. I’ll just be discussing their scenes with them. You can observe us as you please.”

——“Death warning. The Host only has fifteen minutes left to live. System recommends that the Host save himself”

Save himself?

What a useless system! He didn’t need the system to issue a death warning countdown!

“My dar…” My darling? My darling baby?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lu Lixing’s throat closed up and he frowned.

Darling, baby, my dear, my dearest…

Which one will he be able to say out loud?

Ji Qingqing and the others were absorbed in their discussion of the script when Ji Qingqing suddenly turned around and looked at Lu Lixing, “Mr. Lu, when will you be heading back to the hotel?”

Mr. Lu?

Lu Lixing narrowed his eyes; he was very unhappy with the way she addressed him.

“I’ll be leaving later.”

Ji Qingqing replied with a soft ‘oh’, and then continued discussing the scripts with the others.

He watched them as they discussed their scenes. It seemed like they won’t be stopping anytime soon. Lu Lixing suddenly stood up from his seat, which attracted their immediate attention.

Ji Qingqing raised her head and looked up at him in confusion.

Lu Lixing looked down at her and said, “Follow me, I have something to tell you.”

Ji Qingqing put down the script in her hand on the table. She followed after Lu Lixing to a remote area three meters away from everyone else.

“Why are you acting so mysterious?”

Lu Lixing lowered his voice and said, “Did you like the food?”

“Yes, it was delicious!”

“And then?”

Ji Qingqing stared at him blankly for a moment until she finally realized what he was implying. She perked up and said, “Hubby, thank you for the delicious meal this evening!”

——“Life value +1, Host currently has one hour to live.”

“Call me hubby again.”

Ji Qingqing glanced at the staff that was coming and going around them, “We’re still in the filming set. Let’s talk about this tonight at the hotel when we return, okay?”

“Cough, cough, cough…” One of the staff members nearby was drinking water, but when he accidentally overheard their intimate conversation, he choked on his water and started coughing. He didn’t dare to look up at Lu Lixing and JI Qingqing when he started coughing, instead, he hurriedly walked away from them.
