My Wife is My Life!

Chapter 185

He bowed towards Lu Lixing and said, “President Lu, the car is waiting outside. We need to go.”

Lu Lixing looked at Ji Qingqing and said softly, “I’ll leave first.”

Ji Qingqing nodded. Her eyes utterly did not show a single bit of unwillingness to part. And on top of that, she even grinned as she waved goodbye to him.

It’s good that he’s leaving. If he leaves then she can fully focus on filming without having to give half of her attention to Lu Lixing.

Lu Lixing raised his brows. “You’re this happy to see me leave?”

Ji Qingqing hid some of her happiness and pretended to be reluctant to see him leave. Shaking her head, she said sternly, “No, I can’t bear to see you go. Really, I’m so sad that I’m about to cry.”

Seeing her pretentious act, Lu Lixing really wanted to let out an exasperated laugh. “Enough. Stop pretending.”

——“Death warning. Please have a farewell hug with your wife. No less than 5 minutes.”

“… A hug?”

“Don’t. There are so many people watching,” Ji Qingqing whispered.

After speaking, she turned around, appearing as if she was intending to leave.

Lu Lixing grabbed her wrist and forcefully pulled her into his arms. He continued hugging her tightly, locking her within his embrace.

When Ji Qingqing landed straight into his chest, her heart skipped a beat.

Everyone at the filming site shifted their gazes away awkwardly, shooting them a few meaningful smiles.

The couple will be living apart; a hug is very normal.

Being embraced by Lu Lixing’s strong arms, Ji Qingqing couldn’t free herself for a moment and her cheeks started to turn flaming red. She extended her arms and hugged him back. “Ok ok, you should leave quickly. It’ll be bad if you miss the flight.”

Lu Lixing ignored her as if he hadn’t heard her.

“Hey, that’s enough.” Ji Qingqing became impatient. She patted his arm, but Lu Lixing still didn’t move.

“Um… Jingyun, Jiang Su, let me discuss your parts with you. And you guys, are you all done with your work? Hurry up and get ready for the next scene!” Director Zhou called out at the right moment and glanced at the onlookers who were raising their brows and laughing silently.

Much of the filming crew had been standing at the same spot, quietly taking note of the duration of the hug. Upon hearing Director Zhou’s words, they hurriedly started moving. Everyone pretended to not see anything and made themselves look busy. Ji Qingqing’s face turned redder and she buried her head into Lu Lixing’s shoulder just like an ostrich.

“What are you doing? It’s not as if we won’t be seeing each other. It’ll take two months… Or the earliest I’ll be back would be in one month.”

“Don’t move. Let me hug you some more,” Lu Lixing said softly.

Meanwhile, in his mind, he was frantically communicating with the system. “How many minutes have passed?”

——“Not even 3 minutes.”

The people standing behind let out a few awkward coughs to signal them.

Ji Qingqing’s body froze. She attempted to struggle but was held back heartlessly by Lu Lixing.

Lu Liting stood at the side with his face pale and clenched his fists tightly. If not for his fear of Lu Lixing’s power and influence, he would’ve long pulled that woman out from his brother’s hug!

This woman, Ji Qingqing, must have seduced him, or else, how would his clever and dignified elder brother be turned into such a “foolish ruler”?!

——“One minute left.”

Coughing sounds could be heard once more.

Lu Liting could no longer tolerate it and sternly reminded him, “Big brother, you have to leave now.”

Lu Lixing still continued to embrace Ji Qingqing tightly and his nose was filled with the fresh fragrance of Ji Qingqing’s hair.

During this period, it had become the most familiar scent to him.

Ji Qingqing lifted her head and propped her chin on his shoulder. She felt helpless that Lu Lixing was leaving her with such a headache before his departure.

“Are you still leaving?”

——“Time’s up. Mission complete. Life point +5. Current life points are worth 537 hours.”

Lu Lixing slowly let go of his hands that hugged Ji Qingqing. “I’m leaving.”

Ji Qingqing’s face turned as red as a tomato. She immediately took three steps back, afraid that he might do something else in front of everybody. “Bye.”

Lu Lixing looked at her deeply before he turned and walked out. His strides were brisk and the suited man had to jog in order to keep up with him.

Lu Liting drove behind Lu Lixing’s car, and Shen Weiwei sat in the front seat, heading back together with him.
