Chapter 148

Pa da——

Ji Qingqing’s script dropped out of her hands and fell next to her feet.

Upon seeing Lu Lixing who was at the door, Ji Qingqing’s face blushed beet red, a sudden hot flush spread from her neck to her ears.

What did she just say?

In her mind, she recalled the script’s lines.

How strange, she had undoubtedly memorized those lines, but now she could not seem to recall a single word.

“But even so, I still love you Lu Lixing!”

“Even though you are ungrateful and cruel and shameless...”

“LU LIXING! Do you even have a conscience?”

Those lines echoed around her just like 3D audio effects. Her heart went numb for a moment. She badly wished that there was a hole in the ground for her to bury herself in.

She had previously checked, the hotel’s soundproofing was fine. So why did Lu Lixing have to coincidentally come at this time? Didn’t he usually work till 11 or 12? Wasn’t it too early?

If she explained to him that she was just practicing, would he believe her?

——“The system has detected that your wife, Ji Qingqing, has expressed her love for you. Within five minutes, please respond with the four words ‘I also love you’. If you successfully respond, your life points will increase by 1 point. Not responding will result in the deduction of 1 point.”

Lu Lixing: “...”

——“Saying ‘I also love you’ along with the words ‘baby’ would be most fitting, too~”

Lu Lixing’s momentary happiness evaporated. After joy comes ‘sorrow’. His brows knitted as he gazed at Ji Qinqing with a veiled look in his eyes.

“Uh... I forgot that I left something at Wen Rou’s. I’ll head off first... to look for her.” Ji Qingqing panicked and fumbled with her words.

Awkward!

It’s too awkward!

Right now, she really didn’t want to face him. Resigning herself to her fate, she instinctively decided to avoid the situation for now. Placing the script down, she turned to leave.

“Wait!”

As Ji Qingqing passed by him, Lu Lixing reached out his hand to stop her.

“What... What is it? I’m finding Wen Rou for something urgent. If you have something to say, you can hold off till later.” She had no intention of returning back today.

Lu Lixing gave her a deep look. In order to prevent her from running out of the room, he directly backed her into a corner and pressed both hands against the wall, enclosing her before his chest.

The two people stared at each other with their eyes wide open.
