Chapter 41: She Took It as a Sign

Song Xing Xing returned to work after she had recovered.

When she appeared at the office, there were a few staff who was curious about her experience and asked her a few questions about what she had seen in the office a few nights ago.

As soon as Song Xing Xing put her bag at her desk, Liu Yu Sheng slid her chair to her friend's table. "Xing Xing, are you fine now?"

"Mmm… I got a few days off. After eating and sleeping for a few days, I have recovered."

Liu Yu Sheng studied her friend's face for a while. Seeing her friend's rosy cheek, Liu Yu Sheng was convinced that her friends had recovered well.

"Do you that President Lu had called a master to perform a ritual and clean this place?"

Song Xing Xing nodded. When Lu Xun had appeared in her apartment a few days ago, he had mentioned this thing to her.

"I was there when that master comes to clean this studio. Guess what did the master say?"

"What?"

"There was no problem with this place. That night, that thing saw you alone and decided to play around with you a little bit."

Song Xing Xing pushed her friend away. "Stop joking around."

"Really. Why would I lie to you?"

Song Xing Xing waved her hands as if to shoo her friend away. She switched on the computer and went to check on the progress of her episode. She had taken a few days off and now, there are a lot of works to do.

Putting on the headphone, Song Xing Xing started to do her work. According to the schedule, she had two days to finish her episode. Then, she will need to let Producer Ming check on it before the other executive producers are going to watch them.

As she was rushing to get her job done, Song Xing Xing was too focus to get her job done. It was until Liu Yu Sheng had poked her in her arms again did Song Xing Xing paused and took off her headphone.

"What's wrong?" Song Xing Xing blinked as she watched her friend.

"Xing Xing, we're going to lunch. Are you joining us?"

Song Xing Xing glanced at her watch and noticed that she has been staring at the computer for too long. "It's fine. You go ahead. I need to work on this part."

"Or else, I'll wait for you and we'll go together?"

"No. You go ahead with the others first," Song Xing Xing said. "I'm not sure how long it's going to take me to fix this part." She saw that Liu Yu Sheng was still hesitant and spoke, "I'll go and eat once I finished fixing this part."

"Really? Will you be alright staying at the office alone?

"It's in the morning. The sun is up. There shouldn't be anything," Song Xing Xing said. "Go. Go. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine."

Liu Yu Sheng finally left with the others after Song Xing Xing urged her to go.

Song Xing Xing continued to work to fix a few problems with the video without noticing the time. When everything was ready, Song Xing Xing looked at the time and her stomach started to grumble.

In a few minutes, the others will return from lunch. If Liu Yu Sheng and the others saw that she was still working, she would be scolded. After saving the progress of her work, Song Xing Xing grabbed her purse and walked out of the building.

At this time, there were a lot of taxis. Song Xing Xing hailed a taxi and asked to be sent to the nearest mall. When she arrived at the mall, Song Xing Xing went to look at the directory.

There were a lot of restaurants and cafes at this mall and she could not make up her mind which cuisine she wanted to try.

Her gaze stopped when she saw the name of the restaurant she might like. She walked over to the location and Song Xing Xing grew excited upon seeing the promotional voucher that the promoter handed to her.

Big prawns, squid, and crayfish! They were her favorite! Moreover, the restaurant is giving two servings of ice cream for dessert!

A few seconds later, the bright smile on her face disappeared.

It seemed that she was not eligible to enjoy the promotional items in the restaurant. Although she was not short on money, the promotional items were very tempting and the price was very cheap.

Just as she thought that she should give up, her eyes caught a familiar person walking over in her direction. Song Xing Xing hesitated for a few seconds. She looked at the promotion again before she ran over to that man and stopped in front of him with a bright smile on her face.

"President Lu!"

Lu Xun was shocked when someone had run past him and stopped him on his track. He opened his mouth to scold this person but stopped himself once he recognized her. "Song Xing Xing?"

The smile on her face widened. "President Lu, this is a nice coincidence. You come alone?" Song Xing Xing looked around him and could not see his special assistant around.

"Yes..."

"Why are you here? Shopping? Have you had your lunch yet?"

Lu Xun glanced at his watch. Before he could answer, the person had spoken again.

"President Lu, considering your good relationship with my cousin Song Yi, why don't you accompany me for lunch?" Song Xing Xing balled her hands into fists, as she readied herself to be rejected.

She was a glutton.

She saw the promotion in the restaurant and a face that she recognized. She took it as a sign sent from up above.

It was later that she wondered if she was being too rash. She could only use her cousin's name, Song Yi, to get him to eat with her.

Lu Xun saw the look on her face and thought that this girl was up to something. Song Xing Xing would often look at him as if she was afraid that she might offend him, but at this time, she had a bright smile on her face as if she was attempting to curry favor with him.

"You haven't eaten yet?"

Song Xing Xing shook her head and pointed towards the restaurant behind her. "The restaurant is having a promotion. Unfortunately, the promotion is a set for two-person. Even if I have a big stomach, I would not be able to finish them. Can you go with me?"
