The man’s voice was very low, like a whisper between lovers. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩
Song Qiao subconsciously wanted to step back, but the man seemed to have anticipated her move, holding her phone in one hand and clasping her waist with the other, trapping her in his embrace with no way to retreat.
She tried to suppress the unusual feeling in her heart, not knowing when she started to be emotionally swayed by this man. Even though they had only known each other for less than a month and had been married for less than two weeks.
The Lu Jingchen that Song Qiao had seen was always gentle and refined. Except for last night when she was caught by him in Night City and forcefully kissed in his villa, his behavior was rather bad, but she had never seen him angry, like he was just now.
"No need to pick up Wanwan, she can take a taxi over by herself. Just tell me where we’re eating, I will send her the address!"
The woman’s voice was still soft and gentle, but it was less warm and more detached, as if she was in a very bad mood, yet she was trying her hardest to maintain composure.
Lu Jingchen looked amusedly at Song Qiao, who unintentionally put on a displeased face, noting the fine crack on the screen of the phone in his hand, he unconsciously spoke, "Tell Ning Wan to take a taxi to Mingdian Restaurant directly, or have Uncle Chen pick her up. And later, let’s go buy a new phone for you, hm?"
Song Qiao subconsciously refused, "No need, my phone is still usable!" Her gaze swept past the phone screen in the man’s hand, and she finally understood what he meant, "It’s just a small crack. At most, I just need to replace the screen!"
The man clasped her waist, trapping her in his embrace, his deep eyes locking onto her face, he softly asked, "Angry? Hm?"
Song Qiao froze, subconsciously looked up at him, and bumped into his deep gaze, feeling a sudden urge to laugh.
What did she have to be angry about? She didn’t even have a reason to be angry, so how could she be?
It was just a bit of discomfort.
"Jingchen!" The woman who was originally in the elevator unexpectedly approached not far from them, her pretty eyes carrying a light smile that seemed a bit shattered, her delicate and beautiful features slightly pale, "Who is this lady? Your girlfriend? I always thought you’d come alone, when did you find a girlfriend?"
The woman’s voice was very pleasant to hear, Song Qiao watched the woman observing her from a few steps away, feeling slightly familiar, not just slightly, but very familiar, yet she could not recall where she had seen her before, suddenly unable to remember.
Lu Jingchen turned his head towards her, his gaze very calm, and he spoke lightly, "Yuqing, you just got off the plane, go back and rest early!"
Yuqing... Hearing this name, Song Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately looked towards the woman opposite, a piece of information quickly surfaced in her mind. Was the woman in front of her Zuo Yuqing?
The popular actress who rose to fame in Hollywood after starring as the female lead in a suspenseful romance film, Zuo Yuqing!
As an agent, Song Qiao naturally followed such news. Zuo Yuqing had received rave reviews within the industry. She had appeared in TV dramas in her home country previously, although as the second lead or supporting role, she had a certain level of fame. Four years ago, Zuo Yuqing went abroad to study, then starred in a well-known director’s suspenseful romance film abroad. Thanks to her excellent acting and a face so beautiful that anyone would be moved, when the TV drama was released, it instantly triggered a frenzy of drama chasing, and it was then that Zuo Yuqing began to make her mark in Hollywood.
Her company had even used Zuo Yuqing as a benchmark, so Song Qiao, looking at the woman in front of her, knew what a true superstar was.
What she had not expected was that Lu Jingchen actually knew Zuo Yuqing, and their relationship seemed quite good.
Fortunately, CK Corporation had strict management, and it was rare for outsiders to get in here. If paparazzi had sneaked in, it would probably make headlines again tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Zuo Yuqing also looked at Song Qiao, that gaze exceedingly indifferent, but Song Qiao couldn’t tell if it was her misconception, she seemed to detect a hint of hostility in her eyes.
"Jingchen, you haven’t introduced the beauty standing beside you yet!" Zuo Yuqing withdrew her gaze from Song Qiao, looking back at Lu Jingchen with a proud and perfect light smile on her face, her lips aptly curved, her voice low and soft, very pleasant to hear.
