Chapter 183: Do You Like My Petite Waist?
After Ning Qing finished, the assistants on both sides stared at each other and said in tandem, “It’s impossible.”
Ning Qing narrowed her eyes lazily, swept her eyes across Xiao Dong, and looked at Xiao Li again. Her tone was a bit serious. “We are filming. Young Master Lu invited Luo Xi because he trusts Luo Xi. I trusted Xiaofu so I invited Xiaofu. Since both of them agreed, they should show their devotion to their work. Impossible? How is it impossible? It’s just a kiss scene, tell me, who couldn’t do it?”
The assistants on both sides were frightened by Ning Qing’s sudden fierce attitude. It turns out that Ning Qing also has serious moments.
Only then did they regard Ning Qing as a real director.
Xia Xiaofu rose slowly, and she looked at Ning Qing and said, “Ning Qing, I have no issue, I just don’t know if someone has any problem?”
Xiao Li was right. Not only does she still have her on-screen first kiss, but even her actual…first kiss was still there. How could it possibly be Ou Luo Xi’s loss if she were to film a kiss scene with him?
If he were to say that he has a problem, Xia Xiaofu decided to throw his black suit jacket on the ground and stomp on it a few times when she gets home to vent her frustration!
Hmph.
That someone was provoked again.
Ou Luo Xi glanced lightly at Xia Xiaofu’s lips. Her lips were the standard cherry shade. She had applied some lipstick. The pink lipstick was in a gradient tone from outside to inside, like peach blossoms.
It was very pleasant.
Ou Luo Xi shook his head slowly as he said, “No problem.”
Ning Qing clapped her hands and said, “Okay, that’s settled then. Here’s the script. Look at it. When you’re done rehearsing, we’ll add in the extras.”
…
In the afternoon, Lu Shaoming brought Zhu Rui along to attend a meeting.
They passed the rehearsal room on the way to the meeting. He looked inside and stopped.
Ning Qing had changed into a dance dress, white T-shirt, and black casual pants – very simple clothes.
But Lu Shaoming couldn’t help but take a closer look at her. The white T-shirt was a narrow design with narrow shoulders which tightened around the waist, outlining her small waist like a thin neck of a porcelain vase. The T-shirt was short. When she moves, her flat and firm stomach can be glimpsed.
The casual pants were tied with a lovely bow around the waist, and her butt was tight and perky. Because of the high waisted design, her two slender legs in the loose pants appeared long and straight.
It was different from what she usually wore, but it had a unique charm.
Everyone was busy with their own tasks in the huge rehearsal room. It was quiet and orderly. Xiao Zhou gave Ning Qing a board. Ning Qing’s beautiful voice sounded, “Tick-tock, Tick-tock, Tick-tock…”
One dainty foot wearing white cotton socks touched the ground, and her graceful figure twirled in circles dozens of times.
Her hair was loosely tied. When she turned, Lu Shaoming could see the floating strands of hair on her cheek. It was so breezy.
Ning Qing had attracted the attention of the entire rehearsal room when she was twirling around. When she stopped perfectly, applause rang out. “Wow, director, you dance so well. When it’s your turn to perform, you will definitely stun the crowd!”
“That’s right, Ning Qing.” Xia Xiaofu put down her script and ran forward. “You dance so well. I can’t dance. I envy you.”
“Haha”, Ning Qing’s eyes curved as she smiled. “What’s there to be envious of? Xiaofu, I’ll teach you a basic move. Xiao Zhou, grab that ball over here.”
“OK.” Xiao Zhou handed Ning Qing a light colorful ball.
“Xiaofu, watch carefully.”
Ning Qing bent down. Her fair right hand went around the back of her head and slid the colorful ball from the back of her neck. In the midst of the maneuver, she said softly, “When bending down, the chest should be out. The buttocks should be tight and perky. Your entire body should be graceful. Breathe deeply. Stretch out the right leg. Let the ball slide from your back to your leg…”
Punctuated by the breath-holding anticipation of the entire audience, the colorful ball slid from Ning Qing’s slender back to her right leg. When the colorful ball was supposed to fall, Ning Qing’s right foot caught the colorful ball in a beautiful turn. She stood upright, her slim waist fell backward, and her right leg stretched forward.
“Steady your body, slowly release the colorful ball from your right foot. Let the ball slide from your leg. Good! Slide to your chest, stop!”
Ning Qing took the colorful ball that slid between her pink neck in her right hand and straightened herself.
“Wow…” There was no sound of exclamation because everyone was stunned. Within a short minute, Ning Qing had let the colorful ball slide all over her body perfectly.
“Ning Qing, you have done a beautiful job. I could never learn how to do that. I should just be a quiet audience, and take in this beautiful sight and please my eyes,” Xia Xiaofu said cheekily.
Ning Qing handed the colorful ball to Xiao Zhou and held Xia Xiaofu’s small hand. “Xiaofu, then, if my dancing pleases your eyes, then when you film with Luo Xi, you’ll have to do your best. You’ll also have to please my eyes back to make a fair deal.”
“What?” Xia Xiaofu went to pinch Ning Qing’s nose affectionately. “You still want to trade fairly with me with our close relationship? Come and judge for us, everyone. Do you think that your director loves power too much?”
Xia Xiaofu blinked her apricot eyes at the audience.
The entire audience laughed and was in a good mood. It was a pleasure to work with goddesses. Especially with two good-tempered goddesses. The goddesses laughed and the rest of them were lively and happy.
Ou Luo Xi looked at the two sisters who were close to each other and looked sideways at the door. As a martial arts practitioner, he noticed when Lu Shaoming first came to the door.
But Lu Shaoming was looking at Ning Qing, so focused.
“Big Brother.” Ou Luo Xi stood up and cried.
Only then did Ning Qing know that Lu Shaoming was standing by the door. She looked at him and saw Lu Shaoming greeting Ou Luo Xi with a smile on his lips.
He did not look at her.
Ning Qing was not unreasonable. She let go of Xia Xiaofu, went up a couple of steps, and said generously, “Young Master Lu, have you come to inspect the work?”
Only then did Lu Shaoming look at her, nodding warmly and silently, answering, “Yes.”
Ning Qing: Yes yes yes – such a big head. I asked if you had come to inspect the work; do you regard yourself as the leader?
Ning Qing laughed even more happily. “Young Master Lu, how do you like our work? If you feel that it’s good, I would like to make a presumptuous request for the whole group. It’s afternoon now, can Young Master Lu order someone to order afternoon tea for us? Only when we are full can we have the strength to work.”
“Nice, our director is so caring, but I don’t know if Young Master Lu is willing to pay for it?” the crew echoed.
Lu Shaoming raised his eyebrows. He hadn’t treated anyone to afternoon tea before. Besides, this was the company, a place to work.
It was not a matter of money. She should know that he never lacks money.
It was a matter of principle.
But looking at the bright smile on the girl’s face, Lu Shaoming looked sideways at Zhu Rui, who nodded and did as he was told.
“Then I thank Young Master Lu for everyone first.” Ning Qing smiled sweetly.
…
After waiting about five minutes, the afternoon tea came.
Coffee, milk tea, snacks, fruit, ice cream… Here’s everything that one expects to find.
Ning Qing took ice cream. She saw Lu Shaoming standing by and talking to Ou Luo Xi. She trotted forward and handed him some ice cream. “Lu Shaoming, would you like to try it?”
Lu Shaoming glanced at her, frowning. His expression seemed to be saying – What is this?
Of course, Ning Qing knew what he meant. She stood up gracefully, took back the ice cream, and licked it with her little pink tongue. She blinked her eyes innocently and said, “This is ice cream. It’s delicious. Have a taste.”
She had unconsciously dragged her words, showing a little girl’s coquettish side.
Lu Shaoming looked at the cream on her lips and averted his gaze.
Ning Qing saw him talking to Ou Luo Xi again. He had regarded her as the air. She was very sad.
She just wanted him to have a bite of ice cream. Men like him have probably never eaten ice cream in their whole life. She thought that it was delicious and wanted to share it with him.
Ning Qing looked down dimly and turned back.
But after two steps Ning Qing gritted her teeth. Could she not create an opportunity even if he ignored her?
She didn’t want to have to put on such deceptive act, but he had forced her to.
“Ah!” With a soft cry, Ning Qing pretended to sprain her ankle and fell backwards.
She was really falling backwards. Lu Shaoming was standing behind her. If he really didn’t want to catch her and would let her fall to the ground, so be it.
Sure enough, a strong arm wrapped around her soft waist, and Lu Shaoming pulled her directly into his arms.
Ning Qing bumped into his chest. So painful. He was still the same as before. He was fortified with copper and iron walls and could not be touched.
Before she had time to miss his scent and temperature in his arms, the man’s faint laughter rang out in her ears. “Intentionally?”
He could see through it.
Ning Qing did not panicked. She squinted and laughed. “Young Master Lu still holds me even though you now that I’ve done it intentionally? Does Young Master Lu like my petite waist?”
He used to have a special obsession with her waist.
Does he still like it?
The strong arm on her waist was withdrawn instantly. This time Ning Qing was not standing steadily. She took a step backward. Her slim arm hit the desktop, and it hurt a little.
The original culprit didn’t even look at her and left.
What does he mean by that?
Ning Qing stamped her feet in anger.
The righteousness in her blood woke up, and she caught up to him. The man had already reached the corridor when she said, “Hey, Lu Shaoming!”
Ning Qing ran up to him, picked up a little ice cream with her fair and dainty forefinger, and put it on his thin lips on tiptoe.
Plop! Zhu Rui, who was walking towards them from a distance, saw this scene and was so frightened that even the papers in his hands fell to the ground.
The man’s dark eyes quickly darkened, sending out endless cold waves. He stared at the bold little girl in front of him. How dare she smudge ice cream on him?!
Ning Qing’s legs were soft as she looked at the funny ice cream on his lips. She was as frightened as she was brave just now.
“Sorry, sorry!” Ning Qing nodded her head like a woodpecker while admitting her mistake, then took out a paper towel from her pocket and stuffed it into his big palm, which hung beside her, in a hurry. She ran away in a hurry.
Sobs, it’s over. She had ruined her husband’s image as a tyrannical president.
…
Seeing Ning Qing running into the rehearsal room, Zhu Rui quickly stepped forward. “President…”
Lu Shaoming moved. He walked forward without expression and looked at the ridiculous tissue in his palm. Instead of wiping his mouth, he licked the ice cream on his lips.
What is this taste? It’s too sweet.
Lu Shaoming frowned.
Is that what the girl likes to eat? What she had wanted him to taste so desperately?
It was not delicious at all.
Thinking of the way she had run away, as if afraid that he would hit her. How could he do anything to her, though he was really angry?
Generally, the consequences of his anger could be serious.
But what should he do with her?
He had been graceful and calm throughout his 31 years of life. But he had been treated so badly but…cheekily by the girl.
Her face was so tender because of her embarrassment, and the soft touch of her index finger seemed to linger on his lips. She had also licked the ice cream in front of him and talked to him in such a coquettish tone. Who does she think she is?
Did she have no shame?
There was no sense of shyness or reservation in the girl. She threw herself into his arms and even asked him if he liked her petite waist.
Has she seduced other men in the same way?
If another woman had done this to him, he would have asked her to leave, but she was the one doing it.
After learning that she had designed the drama advertisement, his feelings towards her had changed. She was so intelligent and clever in the meeting room. This morning, she was even wittier when facing the media. The 21-year-old new director had managed the theatre in an orderly way. She also had a good relationship with Xia Xiaofu.
She said she would make a cameo in the play. Does she want to dance in the play?
She was really beautiful when she danced. Her petite waist was flexible like a willow swaying in the wind. Her little palm-sized face was beautiful. She would bring out the charm in any outfit she wore, causing others to feel refreshed, and causing him…to not be able to help but look at her more.
What kind of character is she?
Lu Shaoming closed his eyes and recalled how tender and pitiful she was when she was crying and eating an ice cream cone; pulling his sleeve yesterday, she blushed and asked for his praise and was so shy. When dealing with journalists, she was so confident and calm. Just now…
Just now she had stared at him so stubbornly and pouted at him.
Lu Shaoming cleared his throat and felt as if his heart had been brushed by feathers. She had called him by his name, Lu Shaoming, for the first time.
There was a little anger among her daintiness.
Mmm, he liked it.
He liked her waist, her small and petite waist, so soft and so flexible.
…
In the next few days, Lu Shaoming saw Ning Qing’s busy figure continuously. When he left the office after work, she was still there, working hard.
He heard that she had invited the famous director Wang An to help her. Once, he saw her humbly consult the not-so-good tempered old man Wang. She also stood with the cameraman, the lighting technician, and the makeup artist to discuss the details of the play.
Everything was going on in a tense but orderly way. He heard that she had personally participated in every part of the play and did everything in person. He saw her once in the corridor. She bowed her head and discussed something with Xiao Zhou. Her dainty eyes became brighter and her entire body exuded a vigorous spirit of tenacity and hardworking vigor.
He had stood in front of her, but she had not seen him and turned away with Xiao Zhou.
He had also heard that she cooperated with the marketing department very tacitly. When Cabbage Plume had officially published the brochure, she put out a set of gorgeous photos of the play in Tieba. Cabbage Plume’s reputation swept through the cosmetics industry immediately.
Two days before March 21st, Lu Shaoming did not see Ning Qing at the office.
When Zhu Rui sent the documents to the president’s office, Lu Shaoming pretended to be casual and asked, “Why haven’t I seen Ning Qing today?”
