Chapter 173 - It Has Been Really Difficult for Me to Come This Far (1/2)

After entering the bedroom, both of them then sat down on the bed. At this time, Jiang Yuning slowly placed her arms around Lu Jingzhi’s neck before she said in a gentle tone, “Second brother, you don’t have to use the word ‘confess’ when you are with me. You are Lu Jingzhi, the man that everyone admires and look up to. I do not want you to be so humble in front of me. I know that you would never do anything to hurt me or make me upset. Therefore, you can just tell me anything that you want to in future. Don’t tell me that you have a confession to make. That makes me feel bad.”

Lu Jingzhi patted her head gently and ran his fingers through her hair before he kissed her on the forehead. “I want to show you something.”

“Okay.”

Lu Jingzhi then took out his cell phone from his pocket before he opened the messages app on his cell phone. After opening one of the messages, he handed his cell phone over to Jiang Yuning.

Xu Beishen: “Brother Lu, I am already back in the country. Do you have time to meet up with me?”

Xu Beishen: “I secretly stole your contact number from my brother’s cell phone. Don’t blame my brother!”

Xu Beishen: “Can you give me a chance to get closer to you?”

Lu Jingzhi: “No. Please do not disturb me anymore. This is my contact number for work purposes only.”

Jiang Yuning could not help but laugh as she held onto her stomach. “Hahaha. Second brother, you really are incredible. I cannot believe that you could be so heartless and tell her that this is a work-only cell phone without a hint of any emotion at all…”

Lu Jingzhi could finally relax when he saw Jiang Yuning laughing after reading the messages. He leaned in closer to her and asked, “Is it really that funny to you?”

“Hahaha. It is really funny! Why didn’t you just reply that she has gotten the wrong number?”

“Are you not jealous?” Lu Jingzhi asked suspiciously.

Jiang Yuning stopped smiling before she tightened her arms around Lu Jingzhi’s neck again. She replied, “I am not jealous because I know very well that the only person in my husband’s heart is me. The only reason you even replied her at all is simply because she is Xu Liangzhou’s sister. Am I right?”

“Yes.”

“Second brother, I trust you and I also believe in myself. The two of us have finally gotten the chance to be together after so many years of trial and separation. I do not think that anyone would be able to break us apart so easily. Even if you fall in love with someone else one day…I will definitely do everything that I can to make sure that you fall in love with me again. So, that…”

“Impossible.” Lu Jingzhi interrupted Jiang Yuning before she could finish her sentence. He then rubbed his nose gently against her nose.

“What is impossible?”

“It is impossible for me to ever fall in love with anyone else. Therefore, if she ever tries to contact me again, I will simply tell her the truth—that I am already married and that I already have a Mrs. Lu in my life.”

Jiang Yuning felt extremely loved and warmth in her heart after listening to Lu Jingzhi’s affirmation.

“Okay then,” Jiang Yuning responded softly.

Second brother, why do you love me so much? What should I do?

Sometimes, Jiang Yuning would ask herself these questions because she did not know what she had done to deserve Lu Jingzhi’s unfading love and affection.

They both then started kissing naturally. After all, they were always so busy during the day and it was only at night that they could completely belong to one another.

…

A few days later, Vera arranged for a few of Jiang Yuning’s fans to go to the filming location to assist and get to know Jiang Yuning.

After receiving the news that they would be able to visit Jiang Yuning at her filming location, Xue Li immediately raised funds within the fan club in order to hold a fan support event at the filming location on the day of the visit. She wanted to thank the production crew for all their hard work, as well as to show them that Jiang Yuning was not a cub without any protection or support. That way, the production crew would take care of Jiang Yuning and treat her better.

On the day that Xue Li and her team were due to visit the filming location, Vera personally arranged for a driver to pick them up and drop them off at the filming location. She even asked the production crew for help in taking care of them.

Xue Li asked the driver to drive them to the filming location immediately and she even brought some posters of Jiang Yuning along with her.

Since the production team of had always kept Jiang Yuning’s status as the third female lead a secret and had never officially released any of Jiang Yuning’s stills, Xue Li edited some of Jiang Yuning’s personal photos and printed them out to make posters instead. This was because she did not want to put the production team in a difficult spot.
