Chapter 38 - Lets sleep together for a night? (2)

Lu Liting felt even more guilty.

As long as he was willing to return to the Lu family, Weiwei would be able live in a villa, sit in a luxury car, and get the female lead acting roles and endorsements. However, Weiwei had been with him so long and only experienced suffering. He watched her struggle to make a living in the entertainment industry. He watched her being bullied. He watched her hide her sadness and faced her troubles alone. Whenever something bad happened to her, she wouldn't tell him anything.

He sighed, placed his arm around Shen Weiwei's thin shoulders, and solemnly promised, "Weiwei, don't worry. I'll solve this problem for you!"

Unsettled, Shen Weiwei said, "Don't. You don't understand what goes on in the entertainment circle. Don't interfere in this. I'll solve this problem myself. At worst... I'll apologize to her and compensate her for her loss..."

Lu Liting's voice sunk. "Enough! Don't say anymore. I'm your boyfriend. I won't keep watching and doing nothing as you continue to get bullied. Don't worry. I know how to handle the situation. I won't mess things up for you."

He looked at Shen Weiwei's gauzed-wrapped wrist in distress. "Don't do anything foolish in the future, okay?"

With tears in her eyes, Shen Weiwei nodded.

Lu Liting didn't feel reassured by her agreement. He stayed in the hospital all afternoon to keep her company. During this time, there were over ten missed calls. He only left the hospital when he finally couldn't delay his other matters any further.

As soon as Lu Liting left, Meng Xun walked into Shen Weiwei's hospital room. Looking at the woman that was using a tissue to wipe her tears, Meng Xun smiled and asked, "How did it go?"

Shen Weiwei lazily leaned back. With her eyebrows arched, she looked completely different from the pitiful and weak woman that had been in Lu Liting's arms earlier. Looking at her gauze-wrapped wrist, she curved her lips into a mesmerising smile. "Do you even have to ask? It's a forgone conclusion. He's only a man."

By the time Lu Liting left the hospital and returned home, it was already 7PM. There were over ten missed calls on his phone.

The villa was well-lit when he returned. Right after stepping into the living room, he almost collided with Aunty Pei. "Young Master, I've called you so many times. Why didn't you come back until now?"

"Aunty Pei, what's wrong?

It wasn't anything big. It was just that this morning she had though Lu Lixing had passed away, so she called Lu Liting several times because of it.

"Elder Lu is ill. He's resting in his room right now. When you have time, you should go see him."

Lu Liting nodded.

Ji Qingqing happily came downstairs.

Lu Liting saw that her smile was so big that the corners of her mouth almost reached her ears. Her steps were light. It was obvious that she was in a good mood.

"Young Madam... What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"Huh? I... I'm fine. Why would there be anything wrong with me?"

"Is it too hot? Do you want me to lower the thermostat? Or, is it an allergic reaction? Why is your face so red?

"It is... slightly too hot. But, it's okay. I'll be fine soon."

"Alright, then you should go eat first. I'll bring over Elder Lu and Young Master's food later. You've worked hard today. Have a good rest."

"Thank you, Aunty Pei."

Lu Liting slightly narrowed his eyes. He followed Ji Qingqing to the dining table. The sound of him knocking his knuckles on the table was very noticeable.

Ji Qingqing acted as if she had just noticed Lu Liting's existence. Putting away her silly smile, she said, "Oh my! Our Second Young Master is back?"

There was repressed anger in Lu Liting's heart since he had come from visiting Shen Weiwei. Seeing Ji Qingqing's strange mannerism, it only added kindle to the fire.

"Ji Qingqing, don't put on airs. You've been in the Lu familys home for two days. You're only a guest that's overstepping. Do you think the Lu family is yours? Don't think I don't know what you're plotting. Since it's not easy to do well in the entertainment industry, you're tried your best to find a sugar daddy.

You really did find yourself a good backer. He settled so many issues for you. He even found that video for you. You must be feeling very proud of yourself, right? You successfully fooled everyone and kept them from seeing the real you."
