My Dangerous Billionaire Husband - Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Tear It Down Face To Face

“Yaoyao, you misunderstood me. I have something to talk about with Ning Qing. She wasn’t in the room, we didn’t do anything. Yaoyao, you’re the one I love.”

“Junxi, don’t lie to me. I’ve known for the past month that you’re ashamed of me. You think I’m not as good as my sister, not as smart as her. But, don’t forget, I just entered the entertainment circle. My entire life was all about you. I secretly love you and I molded myself according to your liking. I am very new to the entertainment circle and I have no experience at all.”

“Because you’re the CEO of Emperor Entertainment Group, that’s why I decided to enter the entertainment circle. I acted too hastily these past few days, but I only wanted to be closer to you, to be the woman who stands by you. But you can’t see the effort that I’ve put in. You blame me, you’re ashamed of me.”

Xu Junxi felt a tight slap on his face and he was ashamed.

True. When he felt ashamed of Ning Yao, he forgot that Ning Yao had no past experience in the entertainment circle. He forgot that she was innocent and kind. He also forgot how much Ning Yao had done for him.

Ning Yao had known for a long time that he was ashamed of her, but she didn’t complain at all. If it he hadn’t entered Ning Qing’s room that day, Ning Yao wouldn’t have exploded.

The silly girl only knew to hurt herself even when she exploded. She even gave her blessing to him and Ning Qing.

“Yaoyao, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I admit that I am very moody these days. I won’t do it again. Trust me…” Xu Junxi explained.

But Ning Yao pushed him away as she stood up with difficulty and ran towards the wall, “Junxi, let me die. I feel so insecure. Although you admitted you’re at fault today, I don’t know when you would be ashamed of me again. Without you, I might as well die.”

Xu Junxi hugged Ning Yao from behind. He hastily kissed Ning Yao hair and said, “Yaoyao, let’s get engaged. I’ll treat you well.”

Engaged?

Ning Yao was beaming with joy and her eyes were filled with surprise. That’s great. The day has finally arrived. Xu Junxi finally said it!

However, she didn’t turn around immediately. She covered her mouth and she cried, “Junxi, are you being serious? I hope that you are proposing to me because you love me. If it’s because you feel guilty, I’d rather not.”

Xu Junxi held Ning Yao’s shoulder and turned her around. He cupped Ning Yao’s face and kissed her tenderly. “Silly girl, of course I love you. Yaoyao, be my wife, let’s stay together forever.”

“Mm.” Ning Yao nodded her head and accepted Xu Junxi’s embrace.

…

The doctor bandaged Ning Yao’s head. She hit the wall with controlled force. Hence, she wasn’t too badly injured.

After the doctor left, Xu Junxi held her shoulder and kissed her face. He said, “Yaoyao, take a shower and sleep. Your head can’t come in contact with water, do you want me to help you?”

He sounded very suggestive, making Ning Yao blush.

Ever since the other day when she helped him, they had been doing intimate activities. She always held back at the very last part and did not let him touch her. Hence, he had yet to be satisfied.

Ning Yao took a look at Xu Junxi’s handsome face, she climbed onto his lap. She then extended her hand to unbutton his shirt. She spoke seductively. “Junxi, I am yours. As we are going to get engaged, I shall give myself to you tonight.”

Xu Junxi’s eyes grew dark and his body stiffened. The fire that Ning Qing caused in him had yet to subside and then Ning Yao rubbed herself against him, making his passion burn further.

Ning Yao was beautiful too. Her fair skin was smooth and she looked innocent and fragile. She gave out a charming aura.

However, there was another face that appeared in Xu Junxi’s head. It was youthful, yet beautiful. When she felt aggrieved, when she was angry, when she was happy, her facial expression was vivid. Her stubbornness and persistence in particular stirred a man’s desire to make her submit.

That person was Ning Qing.

Why would he think of her then?

There was a sudden softness on his lips. Ning Yao kissed him when his concentration wandered.

Xu Junxi closed his eyes to hush away Ning Qing’s face. He warned himself that he loved Ning Yao and the person who was having intimacy with him was Ning Yao.

He held Ning Yao’s waist with his hands as he deepened the kiss.

The two of them rolled onto the bed and Xu Junxi was panting. The skin against his palm was soft and smooth and his eyelashes were quivering while his were eyes closed. He realized that he couldn’t control himself. He was thinking about Ning Qing.

This afternoon, he watched Ning Qing on set. She was wearing a cheongsam with a red peony. Her amazing hourglass body in the slit cheongsam design accentuated her long legs, which was extremely seductive.

Xu Junxi realized that he was even more excited as he thought about Ning Qing in his head. He felt extremely thrilled, as though he were on a roller coaster.

Ning Yao was very happy as she immersed herself in the pleasant sensation that Xu Junxi gave her but she didn’t know that Xu Junxi was muttering the name, “Qing Qing.”

…

On the second morning, Xiao Zhou basked in the glory of victory.

“Ning Qing, great news. As you have expected, the entertainment headlines were about you and Xu Junxi. As of now, the number of Weibo discussion posts on the subject is up to 4.4 billion! Street Walker successfully took first place as most searched.”

Ning Qing wasn’t surprised at the result. In order to make Ning Yao famous in the entertainment circle overnight, Xu Junxi put in a lot of effort over the past month. She stepped on their fame and was launched to the top, it was twice the result with half the effort.

“Ning Qing, the film crew just launched the first batch of movie promotional videos and photos. Everyone gave good reviews to your acting. Your Weibo fanbase has already increased to six million.”

Ning Qing turned on her computer and browsed the website. Her Weibo account was filled with the digital citizens’ positive comments.

[I just watched Street Walker’s promotional video, the female lead role has great acting skill. She portrayed the character of a different age and her course of life so vividly.]

[I’ve always known Ning Qing. She’s a fallen famous woman in T city. For the past three years, there was much negative news surrounding her. Hence, I initially didn’t have a good impression of her. But ever since I watched Street Walker, my impression towards her has drastically changed. She is so beautiful and her acting is so good. Ning Qing, I really shouldn’t have believed those rumors. I support you.]

[Street Walker is another amazing work of Director Wang’s. I have nothing much to say. I support Director Wang, I support Ning Qing]…

Tears welled up her eyes. For three years, she has experienced so much social snobbery. No one understood her. Aside from her beautiful face and her background which became a topic of discussion at everyone’s leisure, they were giving her biting sarcasm most of the time and making fun of her.

She persistently stood straight and firm through the journey in the entertainment circle. She dreamt of a day where she could win everyone over and obtain everyone’s leniency, understanding, and respect.

The day had finally arrived.

She stayed true to herself and received recognition!

…

Director Wang led the Street Walker film crew to the first promotion stop. The scene was busy and hustling. Besides the media, there was a huge mass of Ning Qing’s fans.

When the media reporters asked about what happened the night before during the Q&A, Ning Qing didn’t respond at all. She smiled at them and pleaded for mercy. She wanted them to focus on the movie.

Although they didn’t receive any answer, Ning Qing’s elegance was approved. Everyone complimented her, saying that she lived up to the title of no.1 socialite in T City.

The promotion ended in the afternoon.

Director Wang invited everyone to KTV as a celebration for the successful first stop. Just as Ning Qing was going to agree, Xiao Zhou walked over with an iPad mini in her hand.

“Ning Qing, the latest news, Xu Jinxi is going to throw a grand proposal party in Shengshi Hotel and officially propose to Ning Yao. Besides, Ning Yao’s mom, Li Meiling would be there too.”

Ning Qing took over the iPad and saw the luxurious and exquisite decoration of the five-star hotel in the screen. There was even romantic white cloth and flowers. There was a reporter saying,

“Hello, everyone. We are live at the scene where CEO Xu Junxi is going to propose to Miss Ning Yao officially. Our idol in the drama scene, Li Meiling, is going to make an appearance here to witness her daughter’s happiness…”

The camera caught Li Meiling’s shadow and Ning Qing humphed at the sight.

Xiao Zhou grew solemn. “Ning Qing, what Xu Junxi is doing is giving us a tight slap on our faces. After the engagement party, every good comment will become bad. They will portray you as a mistress who stole her brother-in-law or a scheming woman that sensationalized the situation with the other’s fame.”

Whatever Xiao Zhou could think of, Ning Qing had already thought about it long ago. In just one short night, Ning Yao took care of Xu Junxi and made him propose to her.

Actually, it wasn’t strange. Ning Yao most likely put on a sad show along with selling her body. A ridiculous man like Xu Junxi couldn’t resist the temptation.

Ning Qing smirked and passed the iPad to Xiao Zhou. She then walked outside.

“Ning Qing, where are you going?” Xiao Zhou quickly followed behind.

“Someone already declared war on me. I shall go and meet them now and tear them apart!”

…

Shengshi Hotel.

Ning Yao looked at Xu Junxi, who knelt down slowly before her, and she felt happy. The man held the diamond ring in his hand that looked just like an eighteen-carat pigeon egg.

When he took out the diamond ring, Ning Yao could hear everyone gasp. Without looking up, she could tell how many of them were jealous of her.

She was bored of being in the spotlight everywhere she went. She should be supported like a princess.

“Yaoyao, I love you. Marry me,” Xu Junxi said to her affectionately.

“Mm, I promise.” Ning Yao flashed a sweet smile. She then slowly raised her right hand before Xu Junxi.

The eighteen-carat diamond ring slowly glided onto her ring finger.

But, suddenly, the door was pushed open. Someone got into the hall.

Ning Yao lifted her gaze and looked. It was Ning Qing!

Xu Junxi’s hand stiffened. He never thought Ning Qing would have the guts to be there. He had been in the entertainment circle for so long. Ever since he saw Xiao Zhou the night before, he knew that he was made use of and fooled. As she was so treacherous and heartless, the proposal party was the heaviest hit he gave her.

He never thought she would dare to make an appearance.

Li Meiling saw and her eyes flashed. In order to prevent any incident during the proposal, she arranged many bodyguards outside but Ning Qing managed to come in.

Looking at Ning Qing’s reporter outfit and cap, Li Meiling knew that most of the people at the scene were reporters and Ning Qing found the loophole.

Li Meiling quickly walked forward and grabbed Ning Qing hand. She flashed a friendly smile and said, “Qingqing, you came? Today’s your sister’s happy day, you must be here to give her your blessings.”

Ning Qing smiled, Li Meiling gained the initiative by striking the first blow. The moment she pushed the door open to enter, all the spotlights were focusing on her, how could she deny this before the public?

Li Meiling’s action left her no choice but to simply grin and bear it. Her actions were limited to “blessing.”

Ning Qing didn’t mind it. On the contrary, she held Li Meiling’s hand and walked to the “happy” couple, hand-in-hand. She walked over leisurely with a smile, “Aunt Li, you’re right. My sister was proposed to. I’m of course here to give my blessing. We had a misunderstanding the night before and everything has been clarified.”

Ning Qing actively brought up “the night before” and it immediately stirred the media’s interest. There were reporters that immediately asked, “Miss Ning, what sort of misunderstand was there the night before?”

Ning Qing reined back the hand that Li Meiling was holding and put her hair behind her ears, “Oh, my brother-in-law came to my room to take the play script but you happened to take photos of it. My sister got angry but I immediately called to explain it to her. Look at the couple, they spent another night sweetly together. then, he proposed today. It is all my effort. Am I right, Yaoyao?”

Ning Yao’s eyes were wide open in disbelief. What call? What clarification? Their sweet night and proposal were all her effort? How did it relate to Ning Qing?!

Ning Qing was lying.

“Sister, you…” Ning Yao wanted to refute.

“Yaoyao!” Li Meiling quickly cut off Ning Yao and smiled, “Look how much your sister cares about you.”

Ning Qing nodded without modesty. She teased the media and said, “Our sisterly bond is especially strong so you’d better not simply make a report, like “the third person” or “scheming woman” or anything of that sort. If you were to use them on me, my brother in law and Aunt Li would be the first to not let you off the hook.”

The media reporters mocked. Actually “the third person” and “scheming person” were already in their news script and these headlines were going to be posted when the party ended.

Wasn’t it obvious? Ning Qing and Xu Junxi were in a sex scandal the night before and Xu Junxi suddenly got engaged with Ning Yao the next day. Anyone could tell Xu Junxi was slapping Ning Qing’s face.

The reporters never expected it could be taken care of so easily with one sentence.

“Miss Ning, how dare we? Your sisterly bond is so strong. We haven’t even complimented it,” the reporter followed.

Ning Qing nodded in satisfaction and said, “That’s right.”

Ning Yao’s eyes were filled with hatred while Xu Junxi’s tried to maintain his composure. Li Meiling still looked friendly, though her hidden gaze was like a poisonous needle shooting at Ning Qing’s face.

Ning Qing raised her eyebrows at her, meaning to tell her, let your daughter grin and bear it too. Ha.

Li Meiling, “…”

Ning Qing waved like the conductor of the scene. She pointed at the man who was kneeling on the ground, “Brother-in-law, hurry up and put the diamond ring on my sister. Everyone is watching.”

It was a romantic scene but Ning Qing made it sound like it was a show.

Xu Junxi bore the woman’s machinations and slipped the eighteen-carat diamond ring on Ning Yao’s ring finger.
