FV: Chapter 52

“I got it,” Ji Yuxiao said helplessly. “I have already asked Wei Junhe to make an appointment with the doctor in advance. We will go there tomorrow morning.”

Lin Luoqing was delighted. “Really?”

“Can I still lie?”

Lin Luoqing was satisfied. “Then let me tell you the good news. I passed the audition.”

“So fast.” Ji Yuxiao was surprised.

Didn’t this mean he would leave soon?

“When will it start?”’

“Half a month later.”

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

Ji Yuxiao felt that this was too soon!

Half a month? Couldn’t it be half a year?

Even so, he still had a gentle look on his face. “Very good, congratulations. Where are you filming? Are you going to go to the movie and television base?”

“No need.” Lin Luoqing laughed. “I’m filming here. If I’m not busy with work, I can come back and see you guys!”

Ji Yuxiao was instantly full of blood and came back to life. “Right here?”

“Yes, modern dramas can be filmed anywhere.” Lin Luoqing smiled.

Ji Yuxiao looked at him and laughed.

Then he realized very quickly. There were so many modern dramas but not every one of them could be filmed in this city.

How could Lin Luoqing choose one so coincidentally?

“Did you specifically choose a drama that would be filmed here?”

Lin Luoqing didn’t hide it from him and nodded. “I asked Brother Wu for this. We just got married and I really don’t want to be too far away from you.”

Ji Yuxiao looked at him and remained silent.

He once hoped that Lin Luoqing could film locally and not be too far away from him, so he could see Lin Luoqing when he needed to.

Yet now that Lin Luoqing did so, he felt that he was dragging Lin Luoqing down.

This was even when he didn’t say anything to Wu Xinyuan or interfered with Lin Luoqing’s choice.

“I think you can choose a better movie or TV drama that is more conducive to your development.” He looked at Lin Luoqing and said gently, “Your career should belong to you alone. You don’t need to be restrained because of me.”

Lin Luoqing shook his head. “It isn’t just because of you. I know what I’m doing and I don’t feel there is any wrong with my choice. From the perspective of work, it is based on an IP and has its own popularity. The male protagonist is good and the female protagonist is also considered to have a small amount of traffic. There will be a certain degree of attention before filming. My character is very lovable and it can be said that I will make a steady profit without losing money. I am very satisfied.”

“From my personal point of view, I care about you and will be worried if I am away for too long. In addition, Fei Fei won’t be used to living with just you, so I made this choice.”

“For me, that is the best option at the moment.”

Ji Yuxiao heard these words and finally nodded.

For the first time, he felt that he might really be a bit too sensitive about his injury. He thought that Lin Luoqing taking the initiative to film locally was due to himself—who had inconvenient hands and legs.

Lin Luoqing clearly said ‘you guys’, not just ‘you.’ He just ignored this meaningful ‘you guys.’

Lin Luoqing had always been a responsible uncle, which was how he could teach Lin Fei, who took the initiative to ask, “Do you want to hug me?”

He loved Lin Fei and cared about Lin Fei’s psychology at every stage. He naturally wouldn’t go to other places and let Lin Fei get along with them alone when they had just gotten married. Lin Fei wasn’t close to Ji Yuxiao and wasn’t familiar with him.

Lin Luoqing couldn’t let go of himself and Lin Fei. So even if he wasn’t injured, Lin Luoqing wouldn’t go somewhere else for his first work.

This was due to this personality and it couldn’t be changed by anyone. However, Ji Yuxiao only thought that Lin Luoqing was doing it to take care of himself.

He underestimated Lin Luoqing.

He was too untrusting.

“You’re right,” Ji Yuxiao said. “I was thinking too much. I should believe more in your professionalism and seriousness when working. You have always been a very responsible person. Letting you go elsewhere to film is what really binds you.”

Lin Luoqing smiled. “Then you should really trust me more.”

“I will.” Ji Yuxiao promised.

“Honestly, I am glad you are able to film locally.”

“Really?” Lin Luoqing looked at him.

His eyes shone. “I’m happy as well.”

Ji Yuxiao saw the light in his eyes and felt like he wanted to kiss this person again.

He lowered his head and smiled. Then he heard Lin Luoqing ask him, “What are you smiling at?”

Ji Yuxiao looked up and didn’t speak. He just stared.

Lin Luoqing was puzzled. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Come here.” Ji Yuxiao leaned back against the chair.

Lin Luoqing walked over suspiciously. Then once he walked in front of Ji Yuxiao, happiness seemed to come from his heart. He gave Ji Yuxiao a sly look and silently bent down to look him in the eye.

Ji Yuxiao pressed against the back of Lin Luoqing’s head, raised his head and kissed Lin Luoqing’s lips.

Lin Luoqing smiled slightly. Sure enough, he guessed that it might be this.

He moved his lips and tentatively kissed Ji Yuxiao. His mood was as good as the sunshine outside the window.

“Then you go ahead and work. I’ll go and read the new script,” Lin Luoqing said in a low voice.

Ji Yuxiao pinched his face and hummed in agreement.

Lin Luoqing glanced at him and reluctantly left the study.

Then after a while, he walked in again. “Help me print a new script.”

“Okay.” Ji Yuxiao asked him to forward the email to himself.

Lin Luoqing watched his movements and said softly, “Then can I read the script here?”

Ji Yuxiao looked up at him. The corners of his lips curved up and he said, “As long as you like it.”

Lin Luoqing smiled in a contented manner.

Seeing this, Ji Yuxiao couldn’t help teasing him. “However, you are too clingy. Are you really unwilling to part with me for even a short time? You like me so much.”

Lin Luoqing, “……”

A smile spread on Lin Luoqing’s face and he said, “It isn’t as good as some people stealing kisses while others aren’t awake.”

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

“Twice.” Lin Luoqing smiled even brighter.

Ji Yuxiao, “!!!”

No, Fei Fei, why do you tell your uncle everything?

Don’t you know there are things that can’t be said?

Lin Fei suddenly sneezed from his bedroom.

Ji Leyu was concerned. “What’s wrong? Did you catch a cold?”

Lin Fei shook his head. He didn’t care about it and continued to read his book.

Ji Leyu leaned over and looked at his book, wanting to see if this book was better. Why else would Lin Fei like reading so much while Ji Leyu didn’t like it.

Lin Fei watched him looking and wasn’t affected at all.

However, Ji Leyu looked away after reading a few lines. Lin Fei’s book was less interesting than his and it wasn’t good at all.

Ji Leyu yawned and fell asleep on the book.

Lin Fei saw his passive attitude to reading and sighed helplessly in his heart.

“Go to bed,” he told Ji Leyu.

Ji Leyu was reluctant. “I’ll just sleep here for a while.”

Lin Fei saw his insistence and didn’t persuade him any longer. He continued to read the book.

Ji Leyu looked at him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lin Luoqing smiled at Ji Yuxiao and dragged out his tone. “Tsk, you are so clingy. You can’t wait for me to wake up before kissing me? Do you like me that much?”

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

Ji Yuxiao silently lowered his head to help this person print the script.

Lin Luoqing smiled proudly, eyes full of joy.

In the afternoon, he stayed in Ji Yuxiao’s study and read the script. Ji Yuxiao looked up occasionally and could see his handsome side profile. He was quiet and elegant as he carefully marked something on the script.

Time seemed to slowly lengthen in his eyes, but it also seemed to fly by in the blink of an eye.

Auntie Zhang knocked on the door and asked them what they wanted for dinner. It was almost dark.

Father Lin’s phone call came at this time.

He had been holding on for many days and waiting for Lin Luoqing to compromise, but he didn’t receive Lin Luoqing’s phone call or WeChat message. Father Lin guessed that he was really afraid of Ji Yuxiao and didn’t dare to confront him head-on. Thus, he thought about it before deciding to bow his head to Ji Yuxiao.

“I really want to reunite with Luoqing. So 50 million is 50 million. Think of it as my compensation to Luoqing and my blessing to the newlyweds. Yuxiao, you should be satisfied, right?”

How could Ji Yuxiao be satisfied with 50 million? However, it was as Lin Luoqing said. In many situations, many things weren’t about how much a person was worth but how much the other party had.

The Lin family’s property was there. 50 million was already a heart-wrenching amount for Father Lin. If it was more then he would retreat.

Thus, Ji Yuxiao said gently, “Uncle, look at your words. You are Luoqing’s father and he naturally has to reunite with you. Do you think it’s okay to send the money tomorrow?”

Father Lin, “……”

Father Lin never thought that the first sentence would be human-like while the next sentence was all about money!

All he knew was money!

Yet at this point, what else could he say. He could only say, “Okay. Then when will you and Luoqing come over?”

“I’ll ask.” Ji Yuxiao said gently. “I will see when he has time.”

“Then give the phone to Luoqing. I’ll talk to him,” Father Lin hurriedly suggested.

“There is no hurry,” Ji Yuxiao said indifferently. “Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

He hung up when he finished speaking.

Father Lin was so angry that he dropped his phone again. Once he saw Lin Luoqing, he had to find a way to let the Ji Group to cooperate with his company. Even if they didn’t cooperate, he needed to let Lin Luoqing gain some benefits from Ji Yuxiao. Otherwise, it would be a waste of his 53 million!

Father Lin felt annoyed when he thought of this figure. He just felt that Lin Luoqing was too disappointing. Lin Luoqing couldn’t even deal with a cripple! How stupid!

Lin Luoqing didn’t bother to care about that now. He took his phone and asked Ji Yuxiao, “Was it successful?”

“Just wait until tomorrow to collect the money,” Ji Yuxiao said with a smile.

Lin Luoqing also laughed. He felt that this was really easy.

“However, do you really want to meet your father after collecting the money?” Ji Yuxiao was curious.

“I will see him,” Lin Luoqing said. “It is all on the gambling table. I have to give him a bit of sweetness to get more money.”

“Okay.” Ji Yuxiao had no opinion.

“But you don’t have to go.” Lin Luoqing was afraid he wouldn’t want the trouble and said thoughtfully, “I can handle it alone.”

“What are you thinking about?” Ji Yuxiao pinched his face. “It is the first time going home after marriage. We must go together.”

“Besides, if I don’t go, who would help you perform?”

Lin Luoqing heard these words and a bit of joy rose in his heart. He said softly, “Oh.” His eyes curved.

Seeing the uncontrollable joy on his face, Ji Yuxiao couldn’t help pinching his face again. Then he silently twisted his fingers.

Wei Junhe couldn’t wait until Ji Yuxiao’s physical examination report came out. He carefully read it several times before reminding Ji Yuxiao by sending a WeChat: [Just checked these? You didn’t miss anything?]

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

Ji Yuxiao smiled: [What do you think I missed?]

Wei Junhe thought, ‘…Do I need to make this clear? It isn’t like you don’t know it!’

Wei Junhe was euphemistic: [If there are some problems, early detection and early treatment can lead to early happiness.]

He thought about it and secretly deleted ‘happiness’. He replaced it with ‘□□’ which should be clearer now!

Ji Yuxiao saw the words ‘□□’ on the phone screen and felt his temples twitching.

[Have you been living too comfortably recently?] Ji Yuxiao felt that this person probably wanted to go plant trees, or he wouldn’t have sent this word so recklessly!

Wei Junhe: [I’m doing this for your own good. You are my brother and I also care about you!]

Ji Yuxiao; [Shut up. I will be fine even if you are not. Care more about yourself!]

Wei Junhe was puzzled: [Is it really okay?]

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

Ji Yuxiao: [Thank you for the invitation, I was praised just now.]

Wei Junhe made a shocked melon-eating sound: [Who? Sister-in-law? You finally couldn’t hold back and became a real couple with Sister-in-law? Good guy, you stopped being human!]

Ji Yuxiao, “……”

Ji Yuxiao felt that this person’s thoughts were quite wonderful.

Ji Yuxiao: [This isn’t something you should care about, understood?]

Wei Junhe: [So you and Sister-in-law have become worthy of the name?]

Of course not!

Ji Yuxiao felt helpless. Why was this person so annoying?

Wei Junhe: [Unless you haven’t? Then how do you know that Sister-in-law isn’t comforting you and lying to you?]

Ji Yuxiao thought, ‘???? How can that be?!’

His golden eagle was so powerful!

Wei Junhe: [You are always like this. Sister-in-law at this age is young and energetic. He is full of vigor. If you aren’t worthy of the name then aren’t you embarrassing him?]

Ji Yuxiao, “????”

[What are you saying?]

Wei Junhe: [Think about it. Sister-in-law has been hinting crazily. You don’t want to live up to your name and you don’t want to do anything. He can only continue to hold back. Even unmarried couples drive regularly. You are married, got a driver’s license but are still walking. You might think it is nothing but Sister-in-law definitely doesn’t think so. If he thinks so, would he hint at you so crazily?]

Ji Yuxiao thought, ‘This… it seems to make sense.’

Ji Yuxiao thought about it seriously and felt that he did seem to have some evil desires.

He had good determination and could endure it, but Lin Luoqing obviously didn’t want to endure it. There was also no need for Lin Luoqing to endure it.

There was no reason for him to refuse to drive the car, so Lin Luoqing had to walk with him.

It was a bit embarrassing for some people.

He thought so and replied to Wei Junhe: [I see.]

Wei Junhe: [Really.]

Ji Yuxiao chuckled: [Nonsense.]

Wasn’t it just liberating his nature? He understood!

Wei Junhe: [That’s good.]

He sighed with relief. Fortunately, his brother was fine and it was just a false alarm. He said, how could his brother not be able to do it!

Sure enough, it was a misunderstanding. It scared him to death!

Wei Junhe took another look at Ji Yuxiao’s physical examination report. It was good and there was nothing wrong with the other parts. He could be an excellent driver now!

Let’s hit the road, brother!

The light of the long voyage has been illuminated in front of you!

The mountain road is right in front of your eyes!

Your friend is cheering for you!

Jiayou!
