Chapter 59 - 59 A Fever

59 A Fever

Luo Ying watched them for a while. When it became clear that they did not plan to leave anytime soon, she moved to another dance studio to practice for a while.

Luo Ying went home after she finished her training for the day.

The original Luo Ying’s body was far more fragile than she had imagined.

The simple training today had already exhausted her. Her waist was still aching.

As soon as she got home, she called for her servant, Zhang. She needed help applying the medicine.

Madam Zhang was a patient old lady. Her daughter was about the same age as Luo Ying.

When she was applying the ointment on Luo Ying’s waist, the door of the house opened.

As soon as Lu Zhao entered the door, he saw Luo Ying lying on the sofa. Her slender waist was exposed.

His eyes darkened, and he felt his throat tightening. Heat rose up in his body.

“Hi!” Luo Ying saw Lu Zhao and raised her head to greet him.

Lu Zhao didn’t respond. Instead, he walked to Luo Ying’s side. He took the ointment from nanny Zhang’s hand and applied it on Luo Ying’s waist.

The cold ointment and the man’s warm fingers gently stroked Luo Ying’s waist.

Luo Ying reflexively squirmed.

“Don’t move.” The man’s low voice rang in her ear.

“Why would you suddenly have back pain?” Lu Zhao asked.

“I went to exercise. Maybe I overdid it. It’s made me really sleepy. But it’s okay,” Luo Ying said with a smile.

“That’s all?” Lu Zhao asked.

Luo Ying nodded and only reacted after a long while, understanding what Lu Zhao was getting at.

“Well, it’s not that just. Next time, be a little gentler,” Luo Ying said softly.

Lu Zhao felt an odd sensation of pride swelling in his chest. The movement of his hands on her waist became slower and gentler.

After applying the ointment, Lu Zhao massaged Luo Ying for a while.

“Why the sudden intensity in training?”

“I’ll be joining the idol games and contest soon. I can’t constantly be huffing and puffing on camera now, can I?”

Lu Zhao looked at Luo Ying with some suspicion.

In the past, Luo Ying had been so focused on Lin Su that she barely even took care of herself, let alone train herself intensely. She was only obsessed about how to get close to Lin Su and make things difficult for Su Ran.

Ever since she jumped off the building, Luo Ying seemed to have changed completely. She was actually working hard on her career.

“What’s wrong? Is it that odd? I was planning to surprise everyone at the idol games.” Luo Ying raised her face with pride.

“I never knew that you were so career-minded.” Lu Zhao looked at her with a probing gaze.

Luo Ying noticed his probing gaze and knew that Lu Zhao must have misunderstood matters again.

Lu Zhao might have thought that she was doing this to attract Lin Su’s attention.

“Ah, you don’t have to worry. I’ve really thought it through this time. I want to do well in my acting career. I’ve wasted too much in the past. Now that I think about it, I’m a little sorry to my fans.”

As Luo Ying spoke, she hugged Lu Zhao. “You work hard on your career at the company every day, so I should do the same too, right?”

Lu Zhao touched her hair, feeling very comfortable with the sensation of this little woman in his arms.

“If you want, I can start up an entertainment company. I’ll give you any role you can dream of.”

“There’s no need, there’s no need.” Luo Ying raised her little face and looked into Lu Zhao’s eyes. “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. I’m very capable. I’ll do this with my own strength.”

Lu Zhao nodded. He seemed convinced for the time being.

He had received the results of Lin Su’s investigation today. Lin Su had not been present yesterday and did not seem to be interested in the celebration.

It truly seemed like Luo Ying had not been looking for Lin Su.

He heaved a sigh of relief.

Half a month passed by quickly, and the idol games were held as scheduled.

Luo Ying’s event was around the corner.

During the opening ceremony, Su Ran was the one to take the oath as the representative of the idol games.

She was dressed in purple sportswear and stood on the podium. Everyone’s eyes were on her.

Lin Su was the representative for the boys.

They were both attractive people. They practically lit the stage up.

The audience and the bullet comments were going crazy.

[Su Ran is so pretty. She looks so good even in sportswear.]

[That’s right. Lin Su is such a stunner. The two of them really look like they have been made for each other.]

[ Lin Su is running an entire company on his own. He still found time to participate in such a show. He’s quite something.]
