"OK, very good!"
In the recording studio, Lu Jingchen smiled and gestured towards Li Mengqi with the gesture of a Stop.
Seeing that, Li Mengqi quickly took off the headset and walked towards him, saying with excitement, "Can you listen to it for me once? This is the first time in my life that I have ever had a song that belongs to me.
"Heh, streamer Li really knows how to speak. He sure knows how to talk."
Lu Chenchen's eyes, which were like a starry diamond, narrowed slightly. They were rippling with limitless brilliance. Li Mengqi's heart trembled slightly, and her thoughts drifted away unconsciously —
"Yan Xi, I got the acceptance notice from the Music Academy!"
Holding the admission notice, the 20-year-old Lu Kuchen dashed all the way to her front, his handsome face filled with joy.
She was sincerely happy for him and could not help but embrace him. Holding the popcorn in her hand, she stuffed it into his mouth, "Oh yeah, I knew my Chen-gege was the best! Here, I'll reward you with a popcorn! "
"Yan Xi!"
Lu Chenchen looked at her with burning eyes filled with determination, "When I have the money in the future, we'll travel around the world together!"
Unexpectedly, she shook her head and smiled mischievously, "Chen-gege will go with your girlfriend, I want to go with my boyfriend!"
"No way!"
Lu Chenchen became anxious, "You promised to travel around the world with me when you grow up!"
"The vows I made when I was a kid were not counted against, now I'll go back on my vow!"
Girls had the right to act shamelessly, and this was exactly how proud she was.
"Then …"
Lu Chenchen gritted his teeth and retreated a step back, "If you don't have a boyfriend by then, then we'll go together!"
"Good!" "But Chen-gege, you have to promise me that you'll work hard and become the brightest star in the world, regardless of whether I'm by your side or not!"
"En!"
After so many years, he had not failed to live up to her expectations and became the most dazzling star in the world. Not long after that, she had been forced to separate from him.
It was only two days ago that Li Mengqi found out that when she spoke those words to Lu Kuchen, Qi Junhao was sitting in the car not far away, firmly determined to get her.
Now that she thought about it, life was truly a delicate journey, and the acquaintance she had with him was like a romantic encounter, entwined and entwined. In the end, they were drawn together …
"Host Li —"
Lu Chenchen's pleasant voice pulled Li Mengqi back from her thoughts.
She looked up and met his probing gaze. "You're looking at me in a daze? Don't tell me you suddenly feel that I'm very handsome? "
"Chen —"
Li Mengqi suddenly stopped, secretly regretting in her heart. She almost called out the three words "Chen-gege", aiya! She quickly changed her words and smiled, "I've heard that Max is a very modest person. How come he suddenly became so narcissistic?"
Due to her timely reaction, Lu Zhichen did not notice her strangeness.
His lips curled up into a smile, his right hand clenched into a fist as he brought it to his mouth. He embarrassedly coughed, cleared his throat, and explained, "When I see you, I always have an intuition that shows off my personality. Sorry, I seemed to have treated you as Yan Xi just now. "
"No, it doesn't matter!"
Li Mengqi was a little embarrassed, but she secretly cursed herself in her heart, calling herself a cowardly turtle, ruthless and selfish. She was obviously Yan Xi, yet she didn't dare to acknowledge him …
Sorry, Chen-gege!
The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward. At this moment, Qi Junhao pushed open the door and entered the room, breaking the awkward silence in the room.
Qi Junhao frowned as he saw the two of them sitting in the same position. He strode to Li Mengqi's side, put his arm around her slender waist and asked, "Are you done recording?"
"Yeah, I was just about to get Max to broadcast it to me."
Seeing him, Li Mengqi let out a sigh of relief. She didn't know why, but at this moment, she felt the guilt lessen a bit. She also didn't understand what kind of mentality this was.
"Wait, it's almost done."
Lu Chenchen nodded slightly. His slender fingers skillfully tapped the mouse lightly. Soon after, beautiful notes resounded faintly throughout the quiet room.
After about ten seconds of prelude, Li Mengqi's sweet voice, like a rainbow, instantly penetrated the man's eardrums. She couldn't help but close her eyes and concentrate on enjoying this feast that came from the hearing of her beloved woman.
Seeing Qi Junhao's attentive look, Li Mengqi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Her hands nervously pinched the hem of her clothes, but in her heart she couldn't help but look forward to his next commentary.
Lu Chenchen saw her expression in the depths of his eyes. A flash of understanding appeared in her deep eyes. It seemed that she loved a man so much that he cared so much about him. One had to admit that Qi Junhao was truly a lucky man. Even he was envious!
When the song was finished, Qi Junhao opened his eyes and a beautiful face appeared before his eyes. He was stunned for a moment before he smirked, "Are you smiling so obsequiously because I'm afraid you're not good at singing?"
"Tch!"
Li Mengqi curled her lips, "Seeing how intoxicated you are, I don't even need to guess to know that this is a heavenly music for me!"
"…"
The two men looked at each other, speechless.
"Max, what kind of expression is that? Didn't you say yesterday that I have the potential to enter the future? Could it be that you're purposely trying to make me happy? "
Li Mengqi looked at Lu Kuchen, who pursed his lips and looked like he wanted to laugh but couldn't. She couldn't help but frown with dissatisfaction.
Lu Chenchen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that when they were young, if he said that Yanxi's dancing was not good, she would put her hands on her hips and pretend to refute him unhappily. From the looks of it, it was hard not to think of them as the same person!
However, he did not want to be seen through by them at this time. Hence, he did his best to maintain a faint smile as he replied: "What I said was the truth! You are great! "
He thought that he had covered it up well, but unfortunately, the subtle changes in his expression still did not escape Qi Junhao's extraordinary observation skills. The man's deep eyes flashed with a dim light, and then he reached out his hand to rub Li Mengqi's head, gently saying, "Since you've finished recording, let's go."
"Oh, good!"
Li Mengqi nodded, picked up her bag, and looked at Lu Jingchen, "Then Max, I'll be leaving first!" We'll have to trouble you with the later stages of production. "
Her mission was completed, and after that there was nothing for her to do.
"No problem!"
Lu Chenchen readily agreed to it. Although he was reluctant, he knew that he could only be friends with her forever.
After leaving the recording studio, the two of them quickly got into the car.
Realizing that Qi Junhao was not on his way back to the Star rank, Li Mengqi couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?"
"A date!"
The man turned his head and gave her a mysterious smile.
"Huh?"
Li Mengqi's eyes unconsciously widened, "Did I hear wrong?" "Young Master Qi, you actually have the time to go out with me on a weekday?"
"From your tone, it sounds like I'm usually very unconcerned about you?"
Qi Junhao frowned, glancing at her blandly.
"Of course not. I just don't want you to work late into the night again. "
These few days, whenever she woke up at night, he would not be by her side. When she walked out of the bedroom, she saw that the study room was still lit up.
"Don't worry. From tonight onwards, I can carry you to sleep for the entire night."
After Qi Junhao finished his speech, he reached out his hand to pinch her cheek.
Li Mengqi's face turned red and she quickly slapped his hand away, "You're so annoying, that's not what I meant!" "You can drive now."
There were more and more cars on the road, and it was no joke.
About half an hour later, Ferrari stopped at YX Jewelry's flagship store.
For a moment, her almond-shaped eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. She turned back to look at Qi Junhao, only to see that he had already unfastened her seat belt. With a slight smile, he said, "Get off the car and let me show you something."
"What is it?"
She was somewhat curious, but she couldn't help but guess in her heart: could it be a ring?
Thinking of this, his heartbeat quickened.
"You'll know soon enough."
The man smiled as he opened the door and stepped out.
"Is it really okay to pretend to be mysterious?"
Li Mengqi muttered as she got out of the car and followed him.
YX was originally a luxury brand. Plus, this was a flagship store. Of course, its design was incomparable to ordinary storefronts.
Almost at the first glance, Li Mengqi was captivated. She felt that she might have accidentally barged into the crystal palace, because it was simply too beautiful.
"It looks like YX's grade is not any lower than JS. How can you not beat it just because of your market share?"
Regarding this, Li Mengqi was still confused.
"Because its master has just returned."
After Qi Junhao finished his sentence, he looked at her with a burning gaze, "Are you interested in taking over?"
"Me?"
Li Mengqi was stunned, but she quickly reacted. She pursed her lips and smiled, "Stop joking. I don't know how to do business, how can I take over such a big brand?"
"Don't you like it? "Let's just treat it as playing for a bit!"
Qi Junhao looked relaxed.
Back then, when he created this brand, he wanted to use it as a present for her to marry into, so that she wouldn't be so bored. Who would have thought that after she left, he would unintentionally develop this brand into one of the top ten jewelry brands in the world.
"Play? That's still a big brand with a market value of billions of dollars! "
Li Mengqi was not as calm as he was.
Although she had dreamed of opening a jewelry store one day, it was only a small shop. It was definitely not a big brand like YX.
It had to be said that this Qi Junhao was thinking too highly of her.
"What's that?" Your man has plenty of money, so he's not afraid of you wasting it. "
Tch, how do you know I'm a spendthrift? Who knows, I might even be able to beat JS! "
Li Mengqi pouted, not convinced.
Qi Junhao laughed, the corners of his eyes gleaming with color. "So, you're willing to accept this stick, are you?"
"Ah, I didn't say that!"
Li Mengqi quickly shook her head, walked away from him and went to the cupboard to admire the dazzling array of goods.
Just as Qi Junhao was about to follow him, the manager hurried over and bowed respectfully at him, "Sorry, Boss, I didn't know you were visiting. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Qi Junhao was in a good mood, so he didn't mind. He gave him a faint glance and instructed, "Bring the items over."
"Yes, please wait a moment!"
The manager bowed and quickly left.
Only then did Qi Junhao walk to Li Mengqi's side. Seeing her large eyes, which were filled with admiration, he couldn't help but grab her slender waist, whispering in her ear, "Darling, let's see if there's anything else you like here. Pick however you like, hm?"
He took the opportunity to steal an incense stick from her face.
Li Mengqi's pretty face turned red as she embarrassedly pushed him away, "Stay away from me, others are watching."
Qi Junhao raised his eyebrows and swept his eyes over the jewelry stores. The pretty shop assistants who had been staring at him ever since they came in were so frightened that they quickly moved their eyes away from him, not even sparing a second glance.
"No one is watching now. "Tell me, is there anything you like, eh?"
His large hand was still tightly pressed against her waist, and his tone was the same as always.
"I like both of them, so I might as well just take a look. It's better to just sell them to earn money."
Li Mengqi pouted and answered truthfully.
Qi Junhao was just about to say something when he caught sight of the manager carrying a box. He walked over and lightly patted Li Mengqi's butt, "Sit over there."
After saying that, she pulled Li Mengqi's hand and moved to the sofa at the side.
Not long later, the manager walked up to them and handed the box over with both hands.
"Boss, this is the type. Are you satisfied?"
After he finished speaking, he respectfully opened the lid of the box and a bracelet that glowed with silver light appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
It was an exquisite bracelet, carved with patterns that looked almost alive and beautiful. At first glance, it reminded Li Mengqi of the silver ring he had proposed to her six years ago. It was a pity that the location of the ring was still unknown. Just thinking about it made him feel a sense of regret.
Did Qi Junhao regret that he had made such a bracelet for her?
Thinking of this, Li Mengqi subconsciously glanced at him, only to see that he had a calm expression. She picked up the bracelet and checked it over and over, then said to the manager, "Put the things here, you can leave first."
"Yes sir!"
Seeing that the boss was satisfied, the manager finally let out a sigh of relief and left with a bow.
"Come on, let's see if it fits."
Suddenly, Qi Junhao grabbed her left hand, and in the next second, he placed the bracelet on her wrist.
Although women loved jewelry and diamonds, Li Mengqi preferred pure silver. This was also the reason why when Qi Junhao had proposed to her, he had used the silver ring.
In a way, this man truly understood her!
Inside her heart, a warm current suddenly passed by. Li Mengqi raised her head and looked at him fixedly. She sincerely said, "It's really beautiful, thank you!"
Qi Junhao laughed, taking her hand and kissing his lips as he said in a deep voice, "I'm not letting you wear this to look good."
"Hmm?"
Li Mengqi was puzzled. If she wasn't wearing anything, could it be that she was wearing something delicious?
"It's not just a bracelet. It's also combined with the latest tracking technology."
Qi Junhao explained in a serious manner, then he cast a cautious glance at her.
The reason why he had people forge this bracelet was not because he was afraid that she would leave, but because he wanted to protect her. He hoped that his treasure would be able to understand his painstaking efforts.
Fortunately, Li Mengqi understood him. She stretched out her right hand and touched the silver pattern as she smiled and asked, "So, you'll know no matter where I go after wearing this?"
"En!"
Qi Junhao heaved a sigh of relief when she didn't seem to show any signs of displeasure, and he continued, "However, it all depends on you. You can decide whether or not you want to wear it at any time."
"As long as you don't make me angry, I'll always wear it. So, it's up to you, okay?"
After Li Mengqi finished speaking, she purposely shook the bracelet in her hand. A dazzling silver light shone in the eyes of Qi Junhao, but it was nothing compared to her delicate face, a thousandth of her brilliance.
Night had long since fallen upon them after they left the jewelry store.
Li Mengqi subconsciously looked at her watch. It was already past seven, no wonder her stomach was growling in hunger.
Just as Qi Junhao was about to go get his car, she grabbed his arm.
"What's wrong?"
"There's a business center nearby, let's go take a look. It's just like an ordinary couple, let's have a date, alright?"
It seemed like the two of them had been together for so long, they had yet to go to the cinema to watch a movie.
"Alright!"
Such a simple request, how could Qi Junhao not be satisfied with it?
Thus, the man didn't open the car. He embraced the woman he loved and blended into the vast sea of people.
That night, they ate in the food street, played Monster in the game room, kissed in the movie theater... Almost all the things that young couples would do, the two of them did almost once, and felt exceptionally happy.
The beautiful times passed quickly. Unknowingly, the bell had rung twelve times.
At midnight, the sky above Brunswick was filled with many colors, and the lights were bright, as though it were day.
Li Mengqi stood at the railing, looking at the rippling river surface, her mind drifted away.
She remembered that they had been here a few times before, and then she had always made him carry her behind his back. It was no wonder that she had felt such a strong sense of familiarity last year when she was in Yang City on Christmas Eve. It turned out that many things had unknowingly fused into her subconscious. Even if her mind forgot, her heart would still remember …
"What are you thinking about?"
A large hand suddenly clasped onto her slender waist. The woman turned her head, meeting the probing gaze of the man. His pair of deep eyes were like a deep pond, and with a glance, he was actually unable to walk out.
Li Mengqi's heart trembled as she hastily avoided his burning gaze. Looking at the river surface, she said in a touching tone, "This place is still as beautiful as before, don't you think, Hades?"
He originally thought that the man would nod his head, but unexpectedly, he said in an unsightly manner, "This young master's attention isn't on those boring things."
"Disgusting, he really doesn't have any romantic side at all!"
Li Mengqi pouted and decided to ignore this engineering guy and admire the beautiful scenery.
"Heh —"
Qi Junhao smirked as he placed a large hand on her waist, covering a certain spot of softness. Li Mengqi's body trembled as she heard his soft voice, "Darling, do you still remember what we did here?"
Boom — —
Li Mengqi's face instantly turned red. How could she possibly forget?
At the time, she was wearing a Bra with a front button, and...
Luckily, it was already late at night and no one saw him. Otherwise, she would probably have jumped into the river while covering her face.
"Do you want to go over it again, eh?"
The man's aura became hotter and hotter, causing Li Mengqi's heart to waver. Fortunately, her sense of reason still had the upper hand, so she raised her foot and ruthlessly kicked his calf.
Qi Junhao hadn't expected her to use this move again. He frowned in pain and subconsciously released her.
Li Mengqi took the opportunity to leap a meter away.
"Haha, I will not let you do as you wish, hmph!"
She took a few steps back, made a mischievous face at him, then turned and ran out.
"This girl!"
Qi Junhao couldn't stop himself from laughing. He wanted to give chase, but he noticed several vans with windows down and guns pointed at him.
