Chapter 572 - 570: Quarrel
"Sister Ada said she would handle it," Ji Niandong answered truthfully.
Chi Yue replied, "Alright, keep our responses consistent."
Actually, because she and Chi Yue have romantic scenes in the two movies they collaborated on, they have been constantly hyped up as a CP by fans. The sudden release of this news made those CP fans as happy as if they had gotten some sweet news, so they couldn’t stop talking about it. It was actually a good thing.
When Ji Niandong got in the car, she received a message from Ada: Do not handle it for now, wait for further notice.
She always trusts Ada to handle things, so she didn’t pay much attention.
Back home, she carefully looked over Zheng MiMi’s notes. She was lying on the living room sofa and didn’t even notice when Lu Beichen came back.
"Mrs. Lu, what are you so engrossed in looking at!" When the voice came, the living room lights instantly brightened.
Ji Niandong was startled. She looked up and saw who it was, then glanced at the time. It was already past five!
"So dark, you don’t even think to turn on the lights?" Lu Beichen walked over and sat down beside her, his eyes fixed on her.
Ji Niandong finally sat up, holding the notebook as if she never wanted to let it go, "Why are you back so early today?"
She asked this seemingly carelessly while still looking at the notebook.
Lu Beichen reached over and took the notebook from her, placing it aside.
"Does Mrs. Lu now think I’m not even as good as a notebook?" His voice carried a tone of grievance and questioning.
"The last exam is coming up soon, I need to study hard," she reached out to get it back, but Lu Beichen pushed it even further away.
The little woman sat up straight, looking at him with displeasure.
Lu Beichen’s expression also held a bit of seriousness, "I was thinking on the way back, how about you just quit the entertainment industry? You wouldn’t need to look at these notes anymore."
"Why do you want me to quit the entertainment industry again?" Ji Niandong instinctively asked, then suddenly remembered the rumors, "Is it because of my rumors with Chi Yue? When I had rumors with Lin Ji Yang before, you didn’t care. Husband, this kind of jealousy is unnecessary."
"I am indeed jealous!" Lu Beichen’s tone remained serious, "Last night, Mrs. Lu had dinner with him and forgot to tell me. Later, at home, she even lied to me saying she had dinner with classmates."
His words seemed to imply something special about Chi Yue, but the hint of questioning made Ji Niandong uncomfortable.
Already feeling irritated, she replied directly, "So if I quit the entertainment industry, what will I do at home? Husband, you don’t even want to have children with me, what should I do at home?"
This statement stumped Lu Beichen, "When did I say I don’t want to have children with you?"
The mention of this issue made her very sensitive, and Ji Niandong stood up abruptly, "Every time I bring up this issue, you avoid it. You always patiently guide and help me solve my problems when I encounter them, but I always thought there will be one day when you have your own problem to avoid as well."
Lu Beichen’s heart skipped a beat.
"Yes, I really did have dinner with Chi Yue last night and forgot to tell you. But what does it matter? I was just having a meal with a friend, and this friend was the first person to help me when I was in danger..."
Lu Beichen’s face suddenly stiffened. She truly minded that incident!
"I was merely thanking him with a meal. And what about you? What were you up to yesterday?" she chuckled bitterly, "Don’t tell me you went to the company. Clearly, you took Nian Nian to the hospital to see Gu Xiyao."
Lu Beichen frowned, "Who told you that?"
