475 No Longer Need to Look Up
Lu Gan comforted Song Ci, “I’ll ask them to video call you at night.”
Song Ci sighed.
“I guess it’s the only way.”
She got out of bed, changed her clothes, took her luggage, and was ready to leave.
Suddenly, Lu Gan called out to Song Ci.
When Song Ci turned around, she saw Lu Gan slowly standing up. He had recovered a little more than before. His movements were also much smoother.
Lu Gan spread his arms and looked at Song Ci with loving eyes.
Song Ci immediately dropped her luggage and hugged Lu Gan tightly.
Lu Gan kissed Song Ci’s forehead and said gently, “Come back soon. I’ll be waiting for you.”
Song Ci nodded and kissed Lu Gan back.
The couple spent some precious time with each other.
…
In the Lu Corporation’s CEO’s office, Lu Jie threw the documents he was holding onto the ground.
Lu Hongchang poured a cup of tea and looked at his son.
“Angry? Is it because of Qi Yuchuan again?”
“Why is Lu Hongju provoking me with an outsider? Does he hate me this much?”
“I don’t think Qi Yuchuan is capable, so don’t worry.”
Lu Hongchang did not panic at all. He continued, “Just make sure to sign a contract with the Li Corporation.”
“How are you so calm?”
Lu Jie pointed to the documents on the table.
“Qi Yuchuan had signed three contracts behind my back this month. Lu Hongju kept protecting and recommending him while Lu Hongyong looked down on me. If this keeps up, my reputation will be ruined. I might also be replaced.”
Lu Hongchang frowned.
“Lu Hongju is a calculative person. He knows that his eldest daughter, Lu Chunyue, is of no use. Meanwhile, Lu Xu is too young and doesn’t have any real power. I bet he’s just pretending to be aloof. In his heart, he wants Lu Hongyong’s side to take over. However, Lu Heng is dead and Lu Gan has lost his spirit. Qi Yuchuan is merely an outsider. So, listen to me and secure that contract with the Li Corporation. Once you do that, there’s nothing to fear.”
Lu Jie was frustrated because Lu Hongju supported an outsider. Moreover, he did not think that Qi Yuchuan was a match for him.
‘Qi Yuchuan did not even earn his own success!’
On the other hand, Qi Yuchuan was in a good mood.
‘Finally, I have a place in the Lu Corporation. Soon, I’ll take over the biggest office! Everything will belong to me!’
Qi Yuchuan reminisced about the past. Back then, people would insult and trample over him.
‘Haha! Now, I no longer need to look up! This is all mine and no one can take it away from me!’
…
Song Ci slept in the car.
When they arrived at the hotel, Yang Haoran woke Song Ci up.
Song Ci, Yang Haoran, Sun Qin, and Song Ci’s new bodyguard, Zhang Shan, got out of the car.
Director Chen had not arrived yet.
Song Ci entered her room first and looked through the script again. After ensuring there were no problems, she went to eat with Yang Haoran.
As they were eating, Yang Haoran’s phone rang.
“Hello? I see. Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Yang Haoran said to Song Ci, “Director Chen will be here soon. We’ll also go and try on your makeup.”
“Alright.”
In a comedy, the cast would have less makeup.
However, Song Ci was shocked when she saw Wu Chengfei. He looked like a mess instead of his usual handsome self.
Wu Chengfei noticed Song Ci. He asked, “Are you the one playing my niece, Mi Xiaoxue?”
“Yes.”
Song Ci nodded.
Wu Chengfei smiled.
“You fit the image.”
Subsequently, Director Chen arrived. Upon looking at Wu Chengfei, he said in disdain, “Who did this? It’s as if he hasn’t washed his hair in 300 years! Redo it. Not so messy and cut his hair shorter.”
After Director Chen had finished speaking, he looked at Song Ci.
“Where’s the stylist? Come and style Mi Xiaoxue.”
Song Ci sat down obediently as the stylist moved her hair around.
Song Ci’s hairstyle did not change much. It was just trimmed a little to make her look fresher and younger.
