Quit pampering

Chapter 299

Lu Junzhi was sitting in the president's office of Shengshi Entertainment.

She was wearing a light yellow long skirt, high heels of the same color, and had long curly hair, exuding a glamorous temperament.

Lu Junzhi put her handbag aside and went straight to the point, "What's the matter that brought you here specifically for me?"

Haven't seen you for several months.

The last time we met was in Switzerland.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Lu Junzhi would occasionally think of such a person, but he would just think of him and have no other thoughts.

Zhou Yuetian asked calmly, "Can you accompany me to a banquet tonight?"

Lu Jun frowned subconsciously, "Why are you looking for me?"

"I think Miss Lu is quite suitable."

Lu Junzhi smiled and said, "Boss Zhou has many women around him. I think there should be someone more suitable than me."

Zhou Yuetian looked at her and said bluntly, "Those people are not suitable."

Lu Juzhi, "Why should I help you?"

"You still owe me a favor, don't you?"

So what Lu Junzhi fears most is owing favors to others.

"Okay." She wasn't the type to play dirty, so she said straightforwardly, "Time, place, I will arrive on time tonight."

Zhou Yuetian raised his wrist and checked the time. "The place is a bit far away, and it's getting late. Let's go."

His eyes fell on her again and he said, "Your current outfit is very suitable."

Lu Junzhi didn't hesitate: "Okay."

The driver drove and two people sat in the back seat.

In the car, Lu Junzhi asked, "What kind of banquet is this?"

Zhou Yuetian said, "I'll tell you later. I'm busy with work first."

As a result, he was so busy with his work that he even went to the banquet venue.

It was only when they arrived at the banquet venue that Lu Junzhi realized that Zhou Yuetian had brought her to attend the golden wedding anniversary of an elder.

Lu Junzhi suddenly felt uncomfortable, "Do you think it's appropriate for you to bring me here for this kind of occasion?"

Zhou Yuetian tilted his head slightly towards her when he heard this. "What did you say?"

Lu Junzhi glared at him.

He had obviously heard it.

Zhou Yuetian played dumb and said, "I think you are suitable to be my female companion. No one will doubt you, Miss Lu."

Lu Junzhi snorted. Why did she feel guilty?

Even if it was exposed, it wasn't her problem.

"Let's go and say hello to the elders."

"Ah."

Zhou Yuetian raised his hand, and seeing that Lu Junzhi didn't move, he touched her with his elbow to signal.

Lu Junzhi glanced at him and took his arm.

Zhou Yuetian led Lu Junzhi towards the host's house, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Qing, I wish you a happy golden wedding anniversary and a long and lasting marriage."

When sending blessings, the assistant also presented gifts.

"I'm glad you're here." Zhou Bo said, looking at Lu Junzhi, "The one next to you is your girlfriend, right? What's your name?"

Zhou Yue added, "My surname is Lu, and my name is Junzhi."

Zhou Bo, "What a good name."

"I..." Lu Junzhi was about to explain that she was not Zhou Yuetian's girlfriend, but Zhou Yuetian squeezed her hand to indicate.

Aunt Qing smiled softly, "I haven't heard that you have a girlfriend before, is this a sign of good things to come?"

Zhou Yuetian smiled, "Take your time."

Aunt Qing said, "Yes, young people, taking things slow is the way to show sincerity."

Other guests came to congratulate, and Zhou Yuetian took Lu Junzhi to find a seat and sit down.

There was no one around, so Lu Juzhi whispered, "Boss Zhou, what did you mean just now?"

Zhou Yuetian asked leisurely, "The more I explain, the more confusing it becomes. It's better not to explain. What do you think?"

Lu Junzhi felt strange, "You can't let people misunderstand like that, right?"

Zhou Yuetian offered a solution, "What should we do? Should we go and explain to Uncle Zhou that we are not boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Lu Junzhi was speechless.

Isn't that unnecessary?

Zhou Yuetian was worried, "Besides, today is Aunt Zhou Boqing's golden wedding anniversary, it would not be a good idea for us to talk about this."

If he hadn't been concerned about this, Lu Juzhi would have rushed forward long ago.

She asked, "Why didn't you tell me before you came?"

Zhou Yuetian, "I was busy with work. Sorry, I forgot to tell you."

Lu Junzhi felt that his current attitude was very unusual. "What exactly do you want to do?"

Zhou Yuetian shrugged, "I just happened to be in need of a female companion, and you just happened to owe me a favor."

Lu Juzhi, "..."

Speechless.

Zhou Yuetian comforted her, "Since we are here, we should make the best of it. Are you hungry? Eat something first."

Lu Junzhi looked at him with a bit of resentment, "I was ordered around by you right after I landed in the capital, what do you think?"

Zhou Yuetian picked up some food for her and said, "Then eat more."

Lu Junzhi looked around and said, "No one else has started eating yet, it would be bad if we did."

Zhou Yuetian said, "Don't worry about them, we'll leave after we finish eating."

Seeing Zhou Yuetian eating here, some people didn't want to come up and disturb him.

After the meal, some people wanted to make friends with him by saying hello.

Zhou Yuetian, on the contrary, was not interested. After saying hello to Zhou Bai, he left with Lu Junzhi.

As soon as they got in the car, Lu Junzhi took the initiative, "I helped you so much today, I should have repaid the favor I owe you, right?"

Zhou Yuetian paused and threw the question to Lu Junzhi, "Do you think you have repaid the favor you owe me?"

Lu Junzhi frowned, thinking that this man was a little greedy. She argued, "Everyone at the party tonight knows that I am your girlfriend. My reputation is ruined. So I have suffered a great loss, right? Haven't I repaid the favor yet?"

"You still have this thing called reputation?"

Hearing his teasing, Lu Junzhi immediately got angry. Before she could lose her temper, Zhou Yuetian said, "How about this, I have a solution. Why don't you be my real girlfriend? This way you won't have anything to lose."

Lu Junzhi was stunned for a moment, and after realizing what was happening, he was a little bit unbelievable, "Zhou Yuetian, are you sick?"

Zhou Yuetian said calmly, "This way your reputation will not be lost."

Lu Junzhi, "..."

Lu Junzhi looked at him with complicated eyes, "Are you still Zhou Yuetian?"

"Replacement guaranteed."

Lu Junzhi said proudly, "That would be a bigger loss for me."

"What's wrong with me being your boyfriend?"

Lu Junzhi, "I don't like you."

Zhou Yuetian, "Didn't you enter the entertainment industry because of me?"

Lu Junzhi said disdainfully, "Don't be so sentimental."

"I'd like to be sentimental."

At this awkward moment, Lu Junzhi's cell phone rang.

It was Lu's mother calling.

Lu Junzhi had a bad feeling in his heart, but he still picked up the phone, "Mom."

The first thing Mother Lu asked was, "Are you in love with Mr. Zhou?"

The sound was somewhat excited.

Lu Junzhi was helpless, "Where did you hear this rumor from?"

"Rumors?" Mother Lu snorted, "I've seen the photos, and you still say it's a rumor?"

"fake."

"What's real or fake?"

"I'll explain it to you later."

Lu Junzhi hung up the phone directly, put away his phone and said nothing.

After returning to the city, Lu Junzhi said, "Find a place to drop me off, I'll take a taxi home by myself." The car drove forward with no sign of stopping.

Lu Junzhi said to the driver in front, "Driver, please stop the car."

The driver only listened to Zhou Yuetian.

Zhou Yuetian said, "Why bother? I'll take you home."

Lu Junzhi, "No need for that. I'm afraid I'll owe you another favor."

Zhou Yuetian laughed softly, "It's just a small matter, it's not a big deal, don't be afraid, Miss Lu."

Lu Junzhi snorted, "Who knows."

Zhou Yuetian said, "I promise."

Lu Junzhi sneered.

The car was parked downstairs in Lu Junzhi’s community.

Lu Jun heard Zhou Yuetian say in front of the car, "Think carefully about what I said."

What are you considering?

Lu Junzhi said directly, "Not considering it."

Zhou Yuetian looked at her back, turned around, and said to the driver, "Does this count as a rejection?"

The driver smiled but didn't dare to speak.

Mother Lu couldn't wait for Lu Junzhi's call, so she called again, "What's going on between you and Mr. Zhou?"

Lu Junzhi said, "I owed him a favor, so I agreed to be his female companion. He and I don't have the kind of relationship you imagine."

"Is that so?" Mother Lu said with some regret, "Okay then, it's fine then."

Lu Junzhi was puzzled by this. What was so good about Zhou Yuetian that made her mother miss him so much?

Do not understand.

Don't even want to think about it.

There are still many things to learn and do, Lu Junzhi does not want to be bound by those love affairs,

The news that Zhou Yuetian and Lu Junzhi appeared at the banquet also reached Gu Jinsheng's ears.

Gu Jinsheng went to Zhou Group to find Zhou Yuetian in person.

No one stopped her, and Gu Jinsheng walked into the office with a swagger.

Zhou Yuetian raised his eyes, "Boss Gu, is there anything?"

Two faint, clearly unfamiliar words.

Gu Jinsheng stood opposite him, his back to the bright light from the floor-to-ceiling windows. His face was blurred and his expression was not real.

Gu Jinsheng looked at the familiar skin in front of him, "I heard that you took Miss Lu to attend Uncle Zhou's golden wedding banquet last night."

"Ah."

"girlfriend?"

"Not yet."

Gu Jinsheng savored the meaning of these three words.

I understand.

"Are you pursuing Miss Lu?"

“It hasn’t started yet.”

Gu Jinsheng didn't understand, "What do you like about her?"

"Mr. Gu is going to change his career and become a matchmaker?"

This is what I don't want to say.

"I didn't expect you really liked her." Gu Jinsheng said sarcastically, "Then why did you pretend not to care in the beginning?"

Zhou Yuetian was silent.

This kind of silence means that I feel there is no need to explain to her.

Gu Jinsheng felt angry, "Zhou Yuetian, what do you think of Yinyin?"

Zhou Yuetian then looked her in the eye and smiled nonchalantly, "Do I need to explain this to Mr. Gu?"

Gu Jinsheng took a breath to calm himself down, "I just feel bad for Yinyin."

"Gu Jinsheng." Zhou Yuetian called her name seriously. "Yinyin and I are a thing of the past. Who I like and who I want to be with is my business. Are you feeling sorry for Yinyin, or is it because you like me and think I shouldn't like anyone else and should give up everything to respond to your love?"

The deepest secrets in my heart were peeped into, and those shameful feelings finally saw the light of day, but I didn't expect this kind of scene.

Gu Jinsheng was flustered at first, but soon calmed down again, "When did you know?"

Zhou Yuetian did not answer her question, nor did he laugh at her love. He just said, "Yinyin's death is a pity for all of us, but a pity is just a pity. There is no need to dwell on the past. Do you understand what I mean?"

Gu Jinsheng laughed at himself, and then said, "Then I wish you can catch up with Miss Lu soon."

She turned around and walked out with her head held high.

When she reached the door, she stopped, turned around, and smiled playfully, "But Miss Lu probably wouldn't like a rotten guy like you, right?"

The office door opened and closed.
-
The online drama "Your Majesty, Please Spare My Life" starring Lu Junzhi has obtained a distribution license.

Compared to other TV dramas that require scheduling and following procedures, the release date for this drama has already been determined.

Suning revealed to him that this matter was the result of negotiations between the company and the platform.

Lu Junzhi asked, "How do you know so clearly?"

Suning said, "I heard the rumor."

"…That means we don't know whether it's true or not."

"Junzhi, don't you know what a release date means?" Suning said, "Generally speaking, it takes about half a year after obtaining a license before a TV series can be broadcast on major platforms. If you don't have capital, your TV series may not even have a chance to be broadcast. At present, we only need to attract investment, and don't worry about the rest."

Lu Junzhi suddenly thought, "Sister Su, has the release date of Xinghe Yongle been set?"

She finished filming almost at the same time as Qiao Nian.

Su Ning was silent for a moment, "Not yet."

"why?"

"It's stuck up there, and I don't know much about the rest."

"The producers of Xinghe Yongle also include Shengshi Entertainment, right?"

"Ah."

That's not right.

Xinghe Yongle is a big production, and the company should pay more attention to this drama.

Does it mean that the company values ​​her web drama more?
In fact, Lu Junzhi doesn't really have such confidence.

Suning changed the subject, "Delays are possible. We don't need to pay attention to others now. The first investment promotion conference will be in three days. As the leading actress, you must attend, understand? You have to dress up that day."

Three days later, Lu Junzhi appeared in a gorgeous attire at the investment promotion meeting for "Your Majesty, Please Spare My Life".

Suning accompanied her and introduced her to investors and industry leaders.

In the business world, everyone has heard of the Lu family in Hong Kong.

Miss Lu showed up at the investment conference. While investors maintained courtesy on the surface, they would not invest without thinking.

Someone else asked, "Why did Miss Lu choose to enter the entertainment industry and make movies?"

"Of course it's because——"

Before Lu Junzhi finished her words, a lazy voice behind her drowned out her voice, "Passion."

Lu Junzhi turned around, "?"

Why is he here?

"Boss Zhou." The man immediately turned his gaze to Zhou Yuetian, "Why did Boss Zhou come here in person?"

"I just came over to take a look."

The man smiled.

There is no such thing as being casual.

However, Zhou Yuetian’s attitude was clear, and the investors also understood what he meant.

Lu Junzhi also wanted to ask him why he came.

Zhou Yuetian seemed to know what she wanted to ask, "Let me see the results of the investment promotion."

"It's just a small web drama, it's not worth Boss Zhou's personal trip."

“Do things whether they are worth it or not.”

"Would you care about something that has no value?"

"Whatever I care about, no matter if it has value or not, is valuable to me."

Lu Junzhi is looking for Suning.

Suning sneaked away when he saw Zhou Yuetian coming.

Lu Junzhi, "..."
