Chapter 642: Chapter 408: Minghuang Group, Young Master Leng, When Will the Kiss Scene Be Filmed?

Seeing the vehicle smoothly come to a stop in front of the villa, Gong Qing, the agent sitting in the front passenger seat, finally slowly put down the phone she had been holding tightly.

Throughout the journey, she kept the call’s volume extremely low, her body unconsciously angled towards the car window, trying to avoid the gaze from the backseat.

However, the anxious and fearful call she had with Director Zhao.

Every word seemed to reach Lu Xuan’s ears as if it were crystal clear, not missing a single one, transmitted into his already superhuman senses.

In the spacious backseat, only Lu Xuan and Lu Xiaoying, who was still clinging to his arm, sitting immersed in the joy of reunion.

The driver in the front seat was a dedicated employee assigned by Tianyu International.

"Grandpa, we’re here! Be careful, this is where I live, do you like it?" Lu Xiaoying’s voice was light and cheerful, like a joyous little bird.

She swiftly opened the door on her side first, then quickly ran to the other side, diligently pulling the door open for Lu Xuan.

She thoughtfully extended the other hand, carefully hovering it over the top of the car door, afraid that her grandpa might accidentally hit his head.

Lu Xiaoying bent slightly, showing a sweet smile to Lu Xuan inside the car.

Although most of her face was still covered by a mask, her crescent-shaped eyes were already full of laughter and anticipation.

"Grandpa, while you’re here in the Capital, stay here with Xiaoying for a few days, okay? Heehee."

This meticulous care and sincere affection did not go unnoticed by the agent Gong Qing.

The anxiety arising from company pressure in her heart was momentarily eased by this warm scene.

The villa’s interior was elegant and warm, with excellent lighting.

Lu Xuan sat peacefully in the center of the living room, on that spotless white soft sofa.

In his hand was a simple porcelain cup, containing the hot tea that Lu Xiaoying had diligently brewed, the fragrance of the tea rising slowly with the steam.

Having completed what she considered the most important task of "making tea," Lu Xiaoying intended to stay by her grandfather’s side and continue chatting.

But just then, she noticed Agent Gong Qing on the side giving her an urgent and serious look.

Lu Xiaoying was slightly taken aback, then she showed Lu Xuan a compliant smile: "Grandpa, sit here and have some tea, take a break, I’ll go change and be right back!"

With that, she turned like a light butterfly, ran up the spiral staircase to the second floor.

Inside the room on the second floor, the door was just gently closed.

Gong Qing clasped her hands together, almost begging, and whispered to Lu Xiaoying.

"My little aunt, this time it’s really no joke!

Director Zhao is already furious over there, just have some pity on me, and be compliant, alright?"

Seeing Lu Xiaoying’s stubborn little face, she hastily offered what she thought was the best solution.

"How about this? I promise, during the days the old man is in the Capital, I’ll personally accompany him everywhere, and make sure he’s well entertained!

Besides, look, you only have to go filming during the day, and when you’re done, there’s still plenty of time in the evening to be with grandpa, right?

This way nothing will be missed, how about it?"

Gong Qing only felt her head swelling.

Facing this well-connected girl who she couldn’t scold or reprimand, she could only humble herself, almost pleading for the other to change her mind.

Lu Xiaoying still puffed out her fair cheeks, like an inflated little puffer fish, filled with a stubborn refusal to be moved, she stomped her foot: "No way! I just won’t!"

Seeing her so inconsiderate, Gong Qing’s long-held temper finally began to flare.

She took a deep breath, her tone becoming more severe than ever, leaving no room for compromise.

"Lu Xiaoying! Get a grip!"

She almost bit off each word through gritted teeth, "This time is completely different from those little contracts in the past!

In the past, the partners might have let you be a bit temperamental because of your family background!"

Gong Qing took a step closer, staring directly into Lu Xiaoying’s eyes, trying to wake her with the most straightforward words.

"But this time the investor is Minghuang Group! Ming—Huang—Group! Do you understand what those four words mean?"

Without waiting for Lu Xiaoying to answer, she provided the answer in a near hopeless tone.

"That’s a trillion-dollar behemoth!

A colossus that just a sneeze can make the entire industry catch a cold!

Besides, rumors have it that behind them... are some big figures we can’t even imagine, let alone mention lightly!"

Gong Qing’s voice carried a slight, imperceptible tremor, a fear stemming from the absolute difference in power.

"If we dare breach the contract this time, it’s not just about paying money and apologizing... we will meet a very ugly end!

Me, Director Zhao, even the entire Tianyu International, can’t bear that consequence!"

Seeing Lu Xiaoying still having a nonchalant, as if-it-has-nothing-to-do-with-me attitude, Gong Qing almost lost her mind, a complaint with a foul word slipped out.

"Damn! My dear Miss Lu!"

"You come from a wealthy family, untouched by worldly concerns!

With your family backing you, penalties worth billions are probably just numbers to you, of course, you don’t have to worry!"

"But it’s different for us ordinary folks!" Her emotions completely exploded, her eyes slightly reddened.

"I’ll be utterly blacklisted in this industry, never to find work again, I’ll end up homeless! Do you understand?!"
