| ← Ch.0232 | Ch.0234 → |
Xiao Zhou let out a huge sigh of relief and had a smile on her face while she said, "Ning Qing, this is great news. We have finally settled this matter. Thank god that nothing bad happened in the end."
"Yeah." Ning Qing nodded her head."That's true."
"Ning Qing, when would we resume filming of City of Love? Your mother in law has helped us a lot this time, and City of Love has attracted a lot of attention, even before it premieres. Just by looking at the trailer, everyone has given it the view count of a full movie already, and the main cast of City of Love are all very anxious right now, especially Yin Moer. Everyone is standing outside the door, and everyone wants to have a meeting with you."
Ning Qing lifted her eyebrows up and snorted once."Let them all in. We have ignored them for an entire week. They should have reflected on their actions; it is time for us to speak to them."
"Sure." Xiao Zhou happily opened the door to the office.
...
A crowd sat at the long meeting table. Everyone looked at Ning Qing who was sitting in the chairman's seat anxiously, and she was also their big boss.
To be honest, before they had signed their contracts, they had been developing well in the entertainment industry, so when they came to sign the contract with Ning Qing, they were attracted by her fame. Nonetheless, in their hearts, Ning Qing was way younger than them. She was a young girl. She looked exquisite and pretty. Although she was elegant and experienced, she looked far from what a boss would normally resemble, and she lacked authority and power.
But this time, since Liu Wenlong had an affair, it really made them have a totally different look at Ning Qing. Ning Qing was sharp and resolute in her actions, and her swift and clear handling of the matter surprised them all.
They have finally seen Ning Qing's true skills.
She was able to turn the pressure from all the citizens into strength to help her, and she toyed around with the entertainment industry. Other than Ning Qing, who else could do this?
Who else?
Before they came, they heard that Ning Qing had invested in Island Wide Media Entertainment, and in these 3 days, the share prices continued to increase. The price had tripled with a mere glimpse of City of Love. Such force and power. This movie had yet to premiere, and with its trailer alone, it had beaten out other movies already.
The abilities of this 21 year old girl were too vast. She actually did not do anything, but she had control of everything that was happening, and she caused everything that had occurred afterwards.
She even ignored them for an entire week. Okay, they admitted that she had succeeded in threatening them.
With a boss like her, they were the lucky ones.
"Director Ning, we know that you've been ignoring us because we have made a mistake with regards the matter involving our senior. We have come to understand our mistakes."
Ning Qing lifted her head from the documents that she was looking at. She slowly curled up the corners of her lips and plainly scanned at the crowd in front of her."Oh, all of you know that you have made a mistake. Let me hear; where did you make a mistake?"
Yin Moer blushed because she was embarrassed. She said, "Director Ning, it was I who made a mistake. That night, I saw Liu Ling enter Senior Liu's room, but I did not stop her, and I also did not report it to anyone else, and that caused Senior Liu to meet with this matter.
"Director Ning, from the start, the entertainment industry was too seedy, so I wanted to protect myself, but after experiencing this matter, I think I have realized, that Senior Liu and I are on the same team. He got into trouble, and City of Love was unable to escape the trouble. You also could not avoid it. What's more for us, we cannot turn a blind eye. We are all artists under your management. As someone once said — When glory comes, the team all receives glory together, and when discord arrives, as long as we work as a team and help one another, as long as we truly treat this studio as a big family, only then can we overcome it."
There was satisfaction in Ning Qing's eyes. Although her expression was still cold, her clear voice rang across the room and through everyone's heart."Ever since I have signed the contracts with you all, your profits are bound with me. No matter how seedy the entertainment industry is, I, Ning Qing, will have a plan to pave a viable path for all of you to survive. As long as you follow me, no matter what happens next, I will never give up on any of you. A team is like a game of tug and war; it requires everyone's effort, and only then will we have the chance to win."
"Director Ning, we understand now, " everyone said to her.
Ning Qing nodded her head and said, "This matter has come to an end. This cannot happen a second time. If there is a second time, I will never come to embrace it again."
"Okay, Director Ning, we will monitor one another. If there is anyone who dares to do it again, we will let the person resign."
It was only then that Ning Qing was satisfied, "City of Love will resume filming tomorrow. The set will be in T City, and there will be promotional pictures of the entire crew tomorrow. Everyone should prepare themselves for it. The meeting is adjourned."
"Yes, Director Ning." Everyone stood up politely, and walked out of the meeting room.
The meeting room was silent, and only Ning Qing and Liu Wenlong stayed behind.
Liu Wenlong did not leave. The clothes on his body were clean and fresh, but his face was frail and extremely pale.
"Director Ning, I am sorry. Also... I have to thank you again.":
Ning Qing looked at the man who was bowing his head down. She had a light smile on her face while she said, "If you really feel that you have let me down and want to thank me, then use all your energy to continue working on music that you love so much. Maybe reality has really given you a large amount of pressure, but you don't care about this right? If not, you would not have lived as you wished for all those years."
Liu Wenlong could hear a slight mocking tone as Ning Qing spoke. Ning Qing felt he was unworthy for Li Yi.
He bore the fruits of his labor, and prepared his own just desserts.
He slowly nodded his head and said, "Xiao Yi has left me. I only have music left with me. I will work with music well. After all, even Li Yi has gone overseas to start her life anew, what other reason do I have to continue being in a slump? You have chided me with the right intentions. I am totally not a man. From now on, I want to become a man again. I will first lead my own life well. If there is a chance in the future... I will try to get Li Yi back."
Ning Qing knew that he really regretted his actions. What he was saying was right. A man had to first live his life well; only then would he have the ability to love someone else.
This was like a woman. She had to love herself well first, and then only could she truly love a man whom she admired deeply in her heart.
"Okay, no matter what, Liu Wenlong, I still trust in your talent in music. I, Ning Qing have never misjudged someone, so work hard now okay."
"Director Ning, thank you."
...
Liu Wenlong walked out, and Xiao Zhou took some documents to discuss the next commercial endorsement with Ning Qing. It was the most famous long legged oppa collaborating with her to endorse the world's most luxurious bag.
Ning Qing nodded her head, and she said, "We will pick this endorsement then."
"Yeah, I will arrange the schedule later." As she spoke, Xiao Zhou thought of something, and she said, "Ning Qing, this time, not only did you take on danger and turn it into an opportunity, you even took the chance to show your own abilities. Your mother in law must be boiling with anger right now, right?"
Ning Qing lifted her eyebrows up, and she was in a good mood. She replied, "Yeah, that phone call that day, I did say that I would show my abilities. My mother in law, she probably... has a different view of me right now."
"Dream on." Xiao Zhou tapped her small head."If your mother in law would be so easy to deal with, that would be a good thing. Don't be silly at such an important time."
Ning Qing held onto Xiao Zhou's hand as she said, "I got it, I am just joking with you. My mother in law is probably boiling with anger right now. Should I... give her a call to comfort her?"
"Sure." Xiao Zhou nodded her head.
Ning Qing took her phone in her hand and she was about to dial the number, but at this moment, her phone rang. She was receiving a call instead.
Ning Zhenguo.
"Hello, Dad."
"Hello, Qingqing. When are you coming home? Your mother's leg was grazed by a motorbike when she went to shop for groceries. She is in the hospital right now."
"What?" Ning Qing jumped up from her seat.
...
In the hospital
Ning Qing rushed to the hospital ward, and Yue Wanqing was lying on the hospital bed while she was getting an IV drip, and Ning Zhenguo was giving her water. f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝒏oνℯl - 🅽🅽novel
"Mum, what happened to you?" Ning Qing walked inside and anxiously checked the injuries on her mother's legs.
Yue Wanqing waved her hands while she said, "Qingqing, don't be nervous. Mum is not in any danger, I have merely grazed a part of my leg. The doctor said that after I finish my IV drip, I will be able to go home already."
Ning Qing looked at her mother's left thigh which was covered with a thick layer of white bandages, and the bandages had a little blood stain on them. Ning Qing felt her heart ache while the tears fell from her eyes."Mum, let me see how big the injury is. It must hurt a lot right?"
"This silly girl, how come you are still crying when you are already so old. Mum is fine. The wound is not big, and I am also not in pain. Wipe your tears away quickly." Yue Wanqing took a tissue to give to her daughter to wipe her tears away.
Ning Zhenguo looked at the mother-daughter duo and comforted them by saying, "Qingqing, don't cry anymore. If it goes on any longer, your mother will cry along with you. Isn't she all fine right now? Let us tidy up and go home."
"Okay." Ning Qing nodded her head.
Ning Qing went to pay the medical fees, and Xiao Zhou stayed in the hospital ward to accompany Yue Wanqing. At this moment, Ning Zhenguo walked over to her, "Qingqing."
Ning Qing knew that her father had something to say to her, so the both of them went to a secluded stairwell to chat."Dad, how exactly did Mum get into the accident today?"
Ning Zhenguo let out a sigh as he said, "Your mother went to the market in the afternoon to buy vegetables, and when she walked on the main road, there was a motorbike that came out from a bend. It directly crashed into your mother, and she fell down. Your mum did not shout out in pain, but her thigh was grazed and had an injury that was about the size of her palm, and her wound was bleeding profusely. Qingqing, there are not many coincidences on earth. There were so many people on the street, and I suspect that the motorcyclist purposely crashed into your mother."
Ning Qing's heart sank to the bottom of her stomach, and both her and Ning Zhenguo thought of the same thing.
"Qingqing, your mother might not know of some things, but your dad understands them. Dad knows that it has been hard on you alone. The Lu family..." Ning Zhenguo hesitated with what he wanted to say, and he could only let out a sigh while he said, "Dad is unable to give you any help, but both mum and dad will support you forever. We will protect ourselves well in the future, and you can go do what is right by yourself."
Ning Qing's eyes were very wet. During this year, Ning Zhenguo had become much older and more frail, and she said regretfully, "Dad, I am sorry. I am being too selfish... but I would never give up Shaoming."
"Okay." Ning Zhenguo caressed his daughter's soft hair while he said, "Dad knows about it all, so don't have too much hesitation in the future. Our Qingqing has grown up. Dad believes that you have the ability to get Young Master Lu back."
"Thank you, Dad." Ning Qing was touched.
...
After Ning Zhenguo left, Ning Qing was silent for a few moments, and she took out her phone to make a call.
"Hello, Miss Ning." There was an elegant voice on the other end, as if she was expecting Ning Qing would give her a call.
"Hello, Mum. That motorcyclist was ordered by you right? You instigated someone to knock my mum down? Mum, have you forgotten about our 3 month promise? You are going against the contract right now!"
"Haha, Miss Ning, you have to have evidence when you speak. Do you have evidence to prove that I'm the one who hired someone to knock your mother down? If you want to push the blame to me, you also must have this ability to do so."
Ning Qing lifted her eyebrow. Song Yajing was not admitting to it?
She had a cold arrow behind her back, and she was arrogant and confident that Ning Qing would not be able to muster any evidence against her.
And she was right. How could the Madam of the Lu family leave behind any traces when she chose to engage in her plans? If she were careless, Lu Shaoming would have been able to trace the large sum of money that Song Yajing had ordered someone to transfer to Liu Ling.
