Chapter 131: chapter 131

Lu Lixing got up, took off his suit jacket, and threw it on the small sofa.“…You want to sleep in the same room as me?”Lu Lixing countered her question confidently, “We’re husband and wife. If I don’t sleep in this room, then where should I sleep?”“Did you check out a hotel room?”“Don’t tell me you didn’t check out a hotel room…”“…” He couldn’t refute her accusation. She didn’t expect Lu Lixing to be such a frugal man.However, it was fine if he wanted to sleep in the room with her. Her bed was large enough to fit two people.Ji Qingqing took out a set of hotel pajamas from the closet and threw it at him, “Go take a shower first.”Lu Lixing took the hotel pajamas and walked into the bathroom.As soon as the door to the bathroom closed, the doorbell to the room rang.Ji Qingqing looked through the peephole of the hotel room door and saw an unfamiliar man standing outside her hotel room.She asked through the door, “Who are you?”“It’s me, Lin Yue.”Who was Lin Yue?“I’m Director Lin!”Director Lin?Ji Qingqing glanced at the bathroom before she opened the door.“Director Lin, what’s up? It’s already very late.” Ji Qingqing stood in front of him and didn’t invite him into the room. She smiled at Director Lin.Director Lin’s name was Lin Yue. He was the assistant director of the filming crew. He was average-looking; he was tanned and had a large stature. He was around 1.78 meters tall, well-built, and he seemed to be full of energy.His main responsibility in the crew was to contact the actors and actresses. It was impossible for the main director of the TV series to contact the actors and actresses directly since it was too much work. As a result, Director Lin had some authority in the crew.Lin Yue glanced at both sides of the corridor before he said, “Why didn’t you tell me in advance that you’re returning to the crew? Did you want to destroy the bridge after you crossed the river?”Ji Qingqing had a confused expression on her face when she looked at him.Lin Yue pushed her to the side, walked into the room, and closed the door.“Eh…what are you doing?”Lin Yue looked at Ji Qingqing with a displeased expression on his face. He looked very impatient as he stared at her; he looked as if he wanted to eat her alive.“What do you think I’m doing? If it weren’t for me, do you think you would’ve gotten the second female lead this easily in this TV series?”Ji Qingqing finally understood what he was talking about. The original Ji Qingqing had walked through the backdoor to receive the role as the second female lead in this TV series.“Enough, stop acting all confused in front of me. We were very clear on the deal before, so don’t try to skimp on me tonight.”It seemed like Lin Yue had come to her room tonight to fulfill the contract that he and the original Ji Qingqing had agreed on.The water in the bathroom was running.Lin Yue was startled by the sudden sound, “Is there someone in your room?”Ji Qingqing smiled.If there wasn’t another person in her room, would she had been stupid enough to let him in like this?The smile on her face soon stiffen. After some careful consideration, her heart thumped loudly against her chest. No!She would never be able to explain herself to Lu Lixing caught her with another man in her room.“Go! Go! Leave quickly!”As soon as she opened the door to her hotel room, the bathroom door behind her was slammed open.Lu Lixing’s sleeves were rolled up. His eyes were sharp and pitch-black as he glared at Lin Yue. His voice was extremely cold when he asked, “What deal?”The room fell into dead silence.Ji Qingqing trembled for no reason at all. Only two words ran across her mind: It was over.
