Chapter 6 Meet Again

  • “Muqing, where are you?” said Jin Xiaolu impatiently. “Do you know what time it is now?” She roared into the phone's speaker.
  • “I'm sorry! So sorry......” Muqing apologized frantically. “I'll come back straight away. I'll be very quick....”
  • Muqing spoke as she hurriedly washed up.
  • Jin Xiaolu suppressed her anger and said, “Where are you now? I'll send a car over to pick you up.”
  • “I... I'm at...” Muqing scanned the interior of the unfamiliar and luxurious presidential suite. She was stunned as she slowly realized where she was at.
  • Why am I here? Also, where is this place? Could it be that everything that happened last night......wasn't a dream but a reality?!
  • “Muqing?”
  • “Ah...” Muqing regained her senses as her face turned pale. “Uhm... Xiaolu, you don't have to come and pick me up, I'll take a cab back by myself!”
  • “But....” Jin Xiaolu was still worried about Muqing.
  • “Rest assured! We're in Japan, so no one will be able to recognize me.”
  • Well, even if we're back in our country, it's not like anyone would have recognized me either. After all, I'm just a mundane and mediocre actress.
  • “All right then.” Jin Xiaolu nodded. “Be careful on your way back.”
  • “Okay, I will....”
  • Muqing let out a sigh of relief. If Xiaolu finds out that I've entered a nightclub last night and drank so much alcohol that I've got myself wasted.... Not to mention that I've even shared an intimate moment with a stranger...
  • Oh god! Xiaolu would kill me with that hot temper of hers.
  • Xia Muqing continued her work in Japan for half a month.
  • One day, their work ended earlier than scheduled at around 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
  • Muqing was rearranging her makeup bag in the dressing room when Jin Xiaolu and her assistant pushed a collection of cocktail dresses into the room.
  • “Muqing, these are all the dresses sponsored by Sunshine. You need to try each of these dresses and pick out 2 dresses that suits you the most.
  • Muqing looked at Jin Xiaolu curiously. “I thought today's work had ended? This is....”
  • “Yes! We are done with today's work, but....” Jin Xiaolu smiled gleefully. “Muqing, it's your lucky day! I received a call from Sunshine's president just now and he has requested for your presence at an important banquet tonight.”
  • Muqing blinked her eyes confusingly.
  • The truth was, back in their own country, Jin Xiaolu had always received multiple offers from rich businessmen attempting to invite Muqing to attend various significant dinners but Jin Xiaolu had always rejected all their invitations despite being offered a large amount of payment for every attendance.
  • But this banquet was different.
  • “To be honest, I wanted to reject this offer initially because of your condition, but the organizer told me that an honored guest would be making an appearance at the venue, so you must attend this banquet no matter what!”
  • “Honored guest?” Muqing frowned.
  • “It's Young Master Qi!”
  • “Young Master Qi?”
  • The young master from the Qi family was a famous figure that everyone with relatively high social standing would've heard of at some point in their life.
  • As the young master from the Qi Japanese mafia family, his social background was shrouded in mystery while still possessing significant influence. The family's business ranged from service industry to communication industry and is slowly expanding their reach into the entertainment industry as well. That family could even alter the country's political status easily if they wanted to.
  • Rumors has it that the young master was a bewitching man with dazzling looks, but was ruthless like the Devil himself. His wrath could have wrought chaos upon the entire continent of Asia.
  • Although it was rare for that man to be angered. He could've easily taken charge of all of Asia, even the whole world should he wanted to, such was the power that was wielded by the mysterious man.
  • But no one really knows about his origin. The superficial information that was released to the public was that the man was from a Chinese with one-third of British royalty bloodline and spent most of his time residing in Japan.
  • It was rumored that Young Master Qi has plans to return to the country and develop his business, which in turn caused countless local artists to gather as they were eager for a chance to be promoted to a bigger stage. Even Jin Xiaolu did not want Muqing to miss this golden opportunity.
  • “Go and get changed!” Jin Xiaolu urged Muqing, who was still a bit hesitant. “Muqing, I don't know if this plan would succeed, but we have to admit, getting acquainted to this powerful man alone would be sufficient to bring your career to a whole new level!”
  • Xiaolu is absolutely right. So, I have no reason to reject her arrangement.
  • The banquet was held inside the lobby of Jin Luan.
  • The number of invited guests were few. Muqing counted less than 20 attendees as she entered the place.
  • Majestic decorations embellished the hall. The interior appeared grand and magnificent.
  • The elegant sound of violin reverberated throughout the hall as everyone immersed themselves deeply in the classy atmosphere...
  • “Young Master Qi is here....” Someone in the crowd spoke in a hushed but excited voice.
  • Everyone turned their attention toward the doors of Jin Luan as it was slowly pushed open, they stared astoundingly in shock.
  • Xia Muqing was dumbfounded when she saw the bewitching face with a cold expression.
  • That... that man. He's the gorgeous man that has appeared in my dream!
