章 50: Sarangheyo

"You can put it down, help me thank your little young master!" Ning Xi said. She took out her cellphone to send a text message to Little Treasure.

While the people in the production crew looked like they were busy doing their jobs, all of them were actually staring in Ning Xi’s direction, very curious about what had been sent to her this time.

In the end, it seemed to be three bottles… of juice?

The first time, Ning Xi had looked troubled by the roses. The second time, she hadn’t seem very surprised or pleased with the diamond. But now, she had a happy expression on her face, and was texting cheerfully.

Everyone exclaimed:

"Ah, sure enough, money doesn’t work on beauties these days, it’s the heart that matters the most!"

"That’s right, didn’t you hear the girl say just now that the juice was personally handmade! That’s so sweet!"

"I bet the one who sent the juice will be the one to win the heart of the beauty in the end!"

"Then I bet it’s the one who sent the diamond!"

"Why is no one betting on the person who sent the flowers?"

...

After drinking the fruit juice and green bean soup, Ning Xi was fully revived as they continued filming.

At the same time, Lu Tingxiao was at home, having taken the time off to accompany his son, when his cellphone sounded with a ding.

It indicated that there was a new text message from Ning Xi.

Lu Tingxiao opened it, and then the corners of his mouth tilted upwards slightly.

[Darling, thank you for your juice and green bean soup! They were super super delicious! Sarangheyo!]

Lu Tingxiao looked at it for a long while before beckoning to his son, who was motionless as he looked blankly out the window. "Little Treasure, come here."

Little Treasure ignored him.

Lu Tingxiao sighed slightly. "It’s a message from your Auntie Xiao Xi."

Little Treasure ran at him like a rocket, and jumped up to reach for the cellphone.

Lu Tingxiao raised it out of his reach. "I can show it to you, if you call me ‘dad’."

Little Bun’s face was full of protest as he refused to cooperate.

It was only until his son was so fitful that he almost cried, that Lu Tingxiao finally relented and handed him the phone.

Looking at his son read the text message with pure satisfaction on his face, Lu Tingxiao’s expression was worried.

It was probably because there was very little in the world that could distress him, that god had sent Little Treasure to test him.

Little Treasure was very clever; he had only been six months old when he started speaking. Although he had a quiet character and didn’t speak much to begin with, ever since that accident, he had not spoken ever again.

He had missed too many parts of Little Treasure’s childhood, and when he wanted to make up for it, he found that it was too late.

He wondered if the day would ever come that he could hear him call him ‘dad’ again…

Little Treasure stared at the phone for a long time, as if there was something that he didn’t understand. Then he went over to his father, and pointed at the phrase "Sarangheyo" with his little finger, probably asking him what it meant.

"Modal particle, it doesn’t have any special meaning," Lu Tingxiao replied seriously.

"Pu – oppa1, you’re not cultured, don't misguide Little Treasure! ‘Sarangheyo’ means ‘I love you’ in Korean, okay?" Lu Jingli skipped over, making the shape of a heart with his hands.

When Little Treasure heard this, he gave his father a disdainful look, then ran off to continue juicing fruit.

Lu Tingxiao was fluent in twelve languages. If Ning Xi had written in Korean, he would have definitely known it, but written this way1, he didn’t understand it at all.

"You don't have to work?" Lu Tingxiao looked askance at Lu Jingli, with the expression of a boss managing his employee.

Lu Jingli immediately moved a chair over to sit in front of him, a thrilled expression on his face. "Boss, I have something very important to report to you!"

Lu Tingxiao couldn’t be bothered to speak, his expression indicating that if Lu Jingli wanted to fart, he should just do so.

Lu Jingli waved his hands with extreme excitement. "Do you know what I just heard? Today, Xiao Xi Xi’s admirers sent her gifts on set!"

"The fruit juice and green bean soup that Little Treasure sent her," Lu Tingxiao answered calmly.

"I know, but before those, other people had also sent her gifts. Furthermore, it was two of them. One sent red roses which covered the whole film site, and the other sent a big diamond!"

Lu Tingxiao’s slowly started to grow cold; on such a hot summer day, it helped immensely to relieve the heat.

...

  1. While ‘oppa’ means brother in Korea, it’s only used by women to address men older than them.
  2. Ning Xi used the transliteration of the word ‘Sarangheyo’ into Chinese pinyin.

章 51: Yet Another Ex-boyfriend

"Did you find out who they are?" Lu Tingxiao’s expression implied that once he knew who they were, he would kill them on sight.

Lu Jingli knocked on the table. "That is what I wanted to tell you. Even with my intelligence network, I’m actually drawing blanks at finding out who they are. It looks like we can only wait for them to make another move before we can try again."

But the Big Demon King looked like he could kill someone now, could he actually wait until they made another move?

Lu Tingxiao immediately made a phone call, and said in a tone as cold as the wind coming off a glacier, "Cheng Feng, help me investigate two people."

Lu Jingli’s face was extremely surprised. "Wow, you’re even using your Jin Yi Wei1!"

His gossip network couldn’t be compared with his brother's intelligence network, which could dig up a person’s secret past as long as there was even the smallest clue to work with.

"Brother, I told you before, Ning Xi’s past isn’t simple, do you believe me now? I think you should tell Cheng Feng in passing to also investigate Ning Xi properly!" Lu Jingli suggested meaningfully.

"That isn’t necessary." Everyone had a past that they didn't want to tell others about. He wouldn’t touch what she didn't want to be touched. If she wanted to tell him, then she would tell him.

Filming finally wrapped up at six o’clock in the evening.

The main scenes today were all of the male and female leads. There weren’t many shots of Ning Xi, but she still had to appear in the scene, acting like a vase for the whole day.

Being a vase was also very tiring. She felt like her neck was about to break from wearing such a heavy costume, and her body was also breaking out into a rash.

After changing her clothes and getting her makeup removed, she put on a mask as she prepared to take the subway.

She wasn’t famous yet, so nobody knew her. It was very convenient to take the subway, plus she didn’t have to deal with traffic jams.

She was about to walk towards the station, when a black Maserati pulled up beside her.

The car window rolled down, and Su Yan smiled at her. "Xiao Xi, let me drive you home!"

Ning Xi: "…"

Ex-boyfriend…

Why was it yet another ex-boyfriend…

Couldn’t they just let her have some peace and quiet?

"No need." Ning Xi walked away directly, as she didn’t want to see his disgusting face.

However, Su Yan refused to leave, and drove slowly after her. "Xiao Xi, can we talk?"

Ning Xi sneered. "What is there to talk about? Do you hate the fact that there aren’t enough scandals about me today? Do you want someone to take a photograph of us and send them an even bigger scandal?"

Su Yan frowned, a little unused to these cold words and attitude from a girl who before had listened to and done everything he said. "Xiao Xi, that’s not what I meant, I do have something important to talk to you about!"

Ning Xi was afraid they really would be photographed if she continued tangling with him on the street.

This guy’s car was too eye-catching.

Ning Xi looked left and right to make sure there was nobody around, then quickly opened the door and got in the car.

Half an hour later, in a room at some restaurant.

Su Yan called the waiter over and ordered a number of dishes, most of which were Ning Xi’s favorites. "Xiao Xi, I haven’t seen you in a long time, so I don’t know whether your taste has changed. How have you been all these years overseas? I sent you some money, but you returned it all to me, and in the end changed your bank account number…"

"Say what you want to say." Ning Xi put her hand against her head and buried herself in texting Little Treasure, letting him know that she would be back a little late.

Resignedly, Su Yan pushed a check at her.

Out of the corner of her eye, Ning Xi gave the check for eight million yuan a quick glance before narrowing her eyes. "What is the meaning of this?"

Su Yan’s eyes became stern. "Xiao Xi, don’t do anything that you will regret."

Ning Xi put down her phone and looked at him with a disingenuous smile. "Oh? Tell me, what did I do?"

"Then tell me, how did you get this role?" Su Yan said abruptly with heavy emphasis.

  1. ‘Jin Yi Wei’ were imperial guards in the Ming Dynasty which eventually became something like a Secret Service.
