Chapter 123: chapter 123

Lu Lixing narrowed his eyes, “Stop pretending to be sick.”“Why would I pretend to be in pain? My head really hurts…” Ji Qingqing quickly walked towards her bed.Lu Lixing shouted at her in a low voice, “Ji Qingqing!”Ji Qingqing felt her head starting to hurt more and more, “Didn’t you say that you don’t want to know?”“I changed my mind; I want to know now. You mistakenly identified me as Wu Yanzu and even asked me why he is on your bed.” Lu Lixing’s gaze deepened, “Why? Did he used to be in your bed?”Ji Qingqing swallowed nervously and forced herself to calm down, “Why would Wu Yanzu be in my bed…”Lu Lixing’s gaze turned cold. Ji Qingqing forced herself to clear her mind, so she could think of a good excuse. Then, she said in a low voice, “Since you really want to know, then I’ll tell you truthfully. It’s a little hard for me to explain…”“Tell me.”Ji Qingqing pondered about it for a moment before she said, “I read a novel two days ago.”“A novel?”Ji Qingqing nodded her head slightly and sighed, “The heroine in the novel is naive and pitiful. Her parents favored their sons over their daughters. They spoiled their son rotten when he was younger, so he grew up knowing nothing. The family depended on their daughter for money. The heroine was very hardworking. She supported her family while she saved up some money to buy a house. When she finally earned enough money to buy a house, her younger brother racked up a large gambling debt. The debt collectors said that they would cut off her younger brother’s hand if she doesn’t pay back the money he owed. The heroine had no choice but to pay back the money her younger brother owed.”“What happened after?”Ji Qingqing was telling the story very eloquently, “The heroine lost everything overnight. She didn’t have money and never received the affection she wanted from her parents. After that incident, she broke off her relationship with her family. Even then, she was still penniless and desperate until a man named Wu Yanzu appeared in her life!”Lu Lixing was frowning; he was utterly confused.“He is rich and powerful. He was crazily in love with the heroine. However, his family disliked the heroine because she didn’t come from a wealthy family. The male lead’s family wanted to break up their marriage, but the two people were deeply in love with each other. The two lovers could not be separated no matter what misunderstandings and setbacks they faced. After they overcame all the obstacles, they finally lived a happy life!”“That’s it?”“Yes! That’s the plot of the novel.” Ji Qingqing tried her best to appear sincere, “Am I not an actor? When I read a novel or a script, I like to put myself in the heroine’s shoes and figure out what the heroine is feeling. I really love the novel and have immersed myself too intensely into the novel. As a result, I couldn’t distinguish reality from fiction when I was drunk. I spoke a bunch of nonsense when I was drunk. Don’t take what I said to heart. Wu Yanzu is merely a fictional character, he doesn’t exist.”Lu Lixing glanced at her suspiciously.“If you don’t believe me, you can go look for the novel yourself. It’s called《The Overbearing President’s 99 Days of Passion and Love: My Darling Runaway Wife》. You should read it; the plot is very interesting. Wu Yanzu is very handsome. Not only does he love and care for the heroine, but he is also willing to give up everything he has just to be with the heroine.”“…the name of the novel is quite long.”“I really enjoyed the novel.”Lu Lixing let go of her and said, “I can tell that you really liked it.”——“You failed your mission. Five health points will be deducted. You currently have 30 hours to live.”Lu Lixing: ???He looked at Ji Qingqing with disbelief; his entire body froze.I treat you like my wife, so how could you treat me this way?!
