Chapter 197 - She Takes You As A Stand-In (1/2)
Lu Shaoming let go of her and rubbed her hair. He had a hint of adoration in his eyes. “Let’s go back.”
“Alright, Shaoming, see you tomorrow.” Ning Qing planted a loud kiss on his handsome face and opened the door like a happy little bird.
Lu Shaoming looked at the girl through the open window. The girl did not leave. She smiled sweetly while waving her fair hand. “Shaoming, bye-bye.”
Lu Shaoming stepped on the accelerator.
When the Bentley vanished completely from sight, Ning Qing stretched out her hand and pinched her thigh hard. It hurts. It was really not a dream.
Lu Shaoming was willing to try to like her. Were they going to start?
Great.
…
At the Lu family Villa
Zhou Zhilei accompanied Song Yajing while the housekeeper showed them the video of Ning Qing’s fairy floral shower scene in today’s play. He reported in a low voice, “Madam, I ordered Ning Qing’s clothes to be cut up according to your instructions, but she had quick wits and used rose petals to cover up the white gauze skirt and created a fairy floral shower dance, causing a sensation throughout the city.”
Zhou Zhilei watched the girl’s beautiful dancing in the video and jealousy flashed in her eyes. Quick wits. This was the appraisal of Ning Qing by the Lu family’s housekeeper?
She glanced sideways at Song Yajing, who looked at the video with a slightly stunned look. Yes, Song Yajing was also a beauty when she was young. She was proficient in musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she was very good at dancing.
Song Yajing was also a person who loves beauty and cherishes talent. Ning Qing’s fairy floral shower had amazed the entire world. It was no wonder that Song Yajing had such a shocked expression.
Zhou Zhilei smiled and took Song Yajing’s arm. “Auntie, Ning Qing’s dance is really beautiful. Now her fandom will grow again. Look at the saliva coming out of those people’s mouths, especially the men right in front of the stage.”
Song Yajing immediately reached out and waved the video away. “Hmph, it’s just a little trick for her to please a man. A seductive woman’s tricks; it has defiled my eyes. By the way, what happened to that Lin Xuemei?”
The housekeeper took the device away. “Madam, I just got the news: Ning Qing set up a grand banquet to catch Lin Xuemei. The young master ordered Lin Xuemei to be sent to the police station.”
Zhou Zhilei was stunned.
“What?” Song Yajing was shocked. “d.a.m.n, it seems that I have indeed underestimated this Ning Qing and allowed her to get out of trouble again and again.”
Song Yajing also wanted to say something, but then the villa doorbell rang, and the servant went to open the door. “Master.”
Lu Shaoming walked in.
When the housekeeper backed away, Song Yajing looked at Lu Shaoming with her usual smile and said, “Shaoming, you’re back. Have you had dinner yet? I’ll ask the servant to warm up some dishes for you.”
“No, I’m leaving later.” Lu Shaoming sat directly on one side of the sofa.
Song Yajing was stunned when she saw that his expression was not right. Zhou Zhilei laughed and said, “Brother Ming, both Auntie and I were thinking that the carpet in Europe is good. The next couple of days…”
“Mom,” Lu Shaoming said, ignoring Zhou Zhilei. Instead, he looked directly at Song Yajing. “Why did you use Cabbage Plume’s formula to frame Ning Qing?”
Song Yajing’s eyes flashed, knowing that the incident had come to light. That Lin Xuemei was too useless. Ning Qing had tricked her into exposing their plot. Otherwise, she would not lose so easily.
“Shaoming, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’ve also heard about the leak of Cabbage Plume’s formula. Do you suspect that I ordered someone to do it? I wouldn’t leak the formula to GK.”
Lu Shaoming’s face was indifferent while his deep black eyes burst with mockery. “What’s GK to you? They’re just a chess piece. You’ve just used them to frame Ning Qing. Lin Xuemei has confessed, and that high-leveled worker has also given you away. Mom, you don’t need to make excuses now.”
Now that he put things like this, Song Yajing also sat calmly on the sofa. “Shaoming, you’ve been so close to Ning Qing lately. Mom doesn’t like this woman.”
“Why? Because she is not of n.o.ble birth?”
“It’s one thing to not be of n.o.ble birth, but her character is the most important thing.” Song Yajing placed a stack of information on the tea table and pushed it in front of him. “Shaoming, you should look at this. Mom sent someone to investigate her. I don’t think you know about the woman’s past. You should also know her real purpose for getting close to you.”
Her past?
Her real purpose for getting close to him?
Lu Shaoming looked down at the information on the tea table and slowly extended his hand.
Song Yajing showed a hint of a smile. Ning Qing thought she had won. She probably didn’t know her fatal weakness in the three-month agreement.
Although she was in the villa every day, she knew about every one of Ning Qing’s actions. She was surprised by the design of Cabbage Plume’s play advertis.e.m.e.nt. This play was well-conceived and could bring Cabbage Plume huge profits. That was why she had waited until the end of Ning Qing’s play to start taking action.
She had to make use of Ning Qing before she could kick her away.
Song Yajing waited for Lu Shaoming to open the information, but Lu Shaoming’s hand stopped and he put it back.
“Shaoming, why aren’t you reading it?”
Lu Shaoming looked up and asked, “Mom, can’t you tell me if I don’t look? Tell me, I’m listening.”
