My Wife is My Life!

“What’s wrong? Is it because you don’t trust my cooking skills or you don’t trust Ji Qingqing’s cooking skills?”

Ji Qingqing scooped a bowl of taro bok choy soup and placed it beside Lu Lixing’s hand.

Lu Lixing took a small sip to taste. It was refreshing and sweet. He surprisedly glanced at Ji Qingqing. The taste was pretty good.

“Don’t look down on my skills. I’ve practiced since I was young. If you don’t believe me, try this eggplant.” Ji Qingqing picked up a piece of stir-fried eggplant and gave it to him. Lu Lixing tasted it and nodded. “It’s indeed nice.”

Lin Zhen sat beside Chen Shuyi and smiled. “I never imagined that Lu Lixing would have a girlfriend.”

Chen Shuyi added, “Exactly, when he studied overseas, all of us were wondering if Lu Lixing liked guys. Later on, we got a male classmate to test our suspicions and it turned out that he wasn’t interested in both genders. But in a blink of an eye, he’s already gotten himself a fiancee.”

As they spoke about this Lin Zhen chuckled. “Lixing, do you still remember that professor?”

Lu Lixing indifferently replied, “I don’t.”

“What professor?” Ji Qingqing was very curious.

“When Lu Lixing studied overseas, he was extremely popular. At that time, the daughter of one of the professors who taught us got interested in Lu Lixing. She went after him crazily and was super clingy. So the professor offered to pull some strings for Lu Lixing’s exams if he was willing to date his daughter. In the end, Lu Lixing directly reported this to the principal.”

“What happened next?” Ji Qingqing asked anxiously.

Lin Zhen smiled. “After that, the professor was switched.”

“But I think that professor’s daughter got married last year. I remember she chased Lu Lixing for ten whole years.” Chen Shuyi looked at Lu Lixing. “Ten whole years. She’s even more devoted than me.”

Lin Zhen chuckled. “Such irresistible charm.”

Chen Shuyi took the chance to put his arm around Lin Zhen’s waist. His eyes were filled with love and softness. “You’re irresistible too.”

Lin Zhen eyed him, then she pressed her lips together and smiled. The two of them ignored their surroundings and kissed.

Ji Qingqing stiffly shifted her eyes away and looked at Lu Lixing.

Lu Lixing’s eyes swept over and met with Ji Qingqing’s gaze. He immediately explained, “I’m not interested in foreign girls.”

Ji Qingqing stared at him. After seeing that his expression was serious and that he wasn’t joking with her, she shifted her gaze away.

“Alright, stop chatting. We should eat soon as the food is about to get cold.” Lin Zhen smiled and reminded the rest after her passionate inseparable kiss had ended.

Everyone started to eat.

After dinner, Chen Shuyi automatically took on the job of clearing the plates on the table. Of course, all he did was mainly limited to bringing the cutlery and plates into the kitchen.

After Ji Qingqing exchanged some skincare tips with Lin Zhen, she left together with Lu Lixing.

“Lin Zhen and President Chen have been together for many years?”

“They haven’t. Chen Shuyi chased after Lin Zhen for seven years before she finally agreed to date him.”

Ji Qingqing was surprised. “Seven years? That long?”

Lu Lixing pondered about the time spent. “But it might be more than that. What about it?”

“I was just randomly asking.” Having said that, she stopped and remarked, “President Chen actually chased after her for seven years. He really is quite persistent.”

“If he can get a good ending together with the person he likes, regardless of how many years spent, it’s all worth it.”

Ji Qingqing eyed him. “You only spent two months to win me over. You’ve won the jackpot.”

Lu Lixing chuckled helplessly. “Yes, I’ve won it.”

After they just exited the elevator, a crew member rushed over. He explained the situation to them and brought them over to the program crew’s resting area.

Director Wang started to brief the two of them over what was going on. “Here’s the thing, our program has this segment which requires two participants to engage in a separate interview. We’ll be asking a couple of questions. It won’t take long and will last for ten minutes. Don’t worry. We won’t stream it. It will be broadcasted after editing.”

Director Wang had mentioned about this segment before the program started. All guests would undergo an interview segment but the questions asked to fake couples and real couples would be different.

Ji Qingqing didn’t think much of it and agreed readily.

“Sure, no problem.”

Both of them entered different rooms for the interview.

Ji Qingqing’s interviewer was a screenwriter from the program crew. She appeared to be 20 years old and was dressed in a youthful manner. She held the question board and sat in front of Ji Qingqing while the two cameramen filmed at one side.

“Miss Ji, yesterday Mr. Lu announced that you were his fiancee in public. Both of you have successfully kept this piece of news a secret from the public. So you must already know your fiance’s preferences and other minor details. We have prepared ten questions for you. Will you be confident in answering them?”

“No problem.”
