Chapter 186: Hugging Him For Warmth



Her daughter was that positive and happy. She, being a mother, could not give her daughter extra pressure, but she still wanted to come over to look at her son in law. “Young Master Lu, how are you? I am Ning Qing’s mother.”


Ning Qing’s mother?


Lu Shaoming’s heart tightened for a moment and instinctively straightened his posture. He felt as if they were boyfriend and girlfriend, and he was meeting the parents for the first time. He was a little nervous. “Aunt, how are you?” Lu Shaoming let out a warm smile. “How are you?” Yue Wanqing nodded her head in satisfaction and smiled as she said, “I heard that my daughter has been working with your company for a project. Although my daughter is intelligent, sometimes she can be rather careless. If there are anything that she did not do correctly, I hope that Young Master Lu would pardon her for it.”


“Not to worry, your daughter is doing very well.”


“Okay.” Yue Wanqing handed the thermos in her hands to Lu Shaoming and said affectionately, “I heard that Young Master Lu went for brain surgery a while ago. This is soup that I boiled myself at home. If Young Master Lu doesn’t mind it, then please have it while it is hot.”


Lu Shaoming looked at the dark blue thermos cup that Yue Wanqing gave to him and was in a daze. Based on his relationship with Ning Qing now, wasn’t Ning Qing’s mother being too enthusiastic at this point? But looking at Yue Wanqing’s gentle and affectionate expression in her eyes, out of respect, he used two hands to accept it and said, “Aunt, thank you.”


“Ay.” Yue Wanqing gently sighed and said,” What is there to be thankful about? I heard that you went to England alone for surgery. Surgery is too taxing on a person; you need someone to care for you now more than ever. You were alone and didn’t have kin to come over to care for you – how did you overcome it all? The young people nowadays all try to be heroes. If you do not love yourself well, it will be painful for your relatives. Back then if you brought…”


The words “Qingqing” had not exited her mouth when he suddenly heard, “Mum.” Ning Qing came running over. “Qingqing.” Yue Wanqing called out to her.


“Mum, why did you come suddenly? If someone hadn’t told me, I would not know about this. What were you talking to Lu Shaoming about?”


Ning Qing was most afraid that her mother would spill the beans prematurely. Mother still not know about the matters regarding her mother-in-law, Song Yajing. She followed the condition of not divulging her marital status for 3 months’ time, as agreed with Song Yajing. This was a trade-off; if mother blurted it out suddenly, then it would be a breach of contract. She would not have the 3 months then.


Now Song Yajing was in the country, she was not disturbed and led her life well. But she knew that Song Yajing definitely assigned someone to keep an eye on her to observe her every move. Once she did something that was not acceptable, Song Yajing would take action. It was only the calm before the storm now.


If Song Yajing took action, she would be held back by the Ning family. Lu Shaoming had lost his memories, but maybe this could be an opportunity for her to test the chemistry and relationship that she had with Lu Shaoming to see if they could weather the storm together.


Furthermore, even if she weathered through it, it did not matter. Song Yajing was still her mother in law. She would be the one who made mother and son fall out with one another. She would never be able to enter the doors of the Lu family. Moreover, she loved Lu Shaoming; she was unwilling to let him be the wedge in their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflict.


On Song Yajing – Song Yajing actually could’ve made her disappear at first contact, but Song Yajing agreed to her 3 months promise. She was also afraid of having a direct falling out with her own son. Now, she could only wish for Lu Shaoming to fall in love with her more quickly. She hoped that her Lu Shaoming would return soon.


“I didn’t say anything. I only boiled some soup for Young Master Lu to drink.” Ning Qing looked towards the thermos in the man’s hands. She laughed awkwardly and said, “Young Master Lu, I am so sorry. My mom is too enthusiastic. She didn’t scare you, right?”


“No, thank you Aunt.”


“Okay, Mum, Lu Shaoming has accepted your sincerity. Let me bring you home. I still have work to complete later, and I am busy.” Ning Qing held onto her mum’s elbow and brought Yue Wanqing away. Lu Shaoming looked at the backs of both mother and daughter. He did not know what Yue Wanqing said. Ning Qing hugged onto her elbow and was acting coy. They walked for a distance, and left a trail of warmth. After waiting for them to enter the elevator, Lu Shaoming turned and went into the office.



It was noon when Zhu Rui entered the office. He said, “President, what do you want to have for lunch today? Should we tell the cook in the canteen to prepare something for you, or should we call something in?” Lu Shaoming was handling matters relating to the commerce notebook. He used his gaze to point at the thermos on the coffee table and said, “No need, I will have that.”


“Okay.” Zhu Rui grabbed a pair of silver chopsticks and a bowl made of delicate cherry blossom chinaware. He bent down to open the thermos; a waft of thick soup filled the air.


“President, is this ‘Soothing Nerves and Nourishing for the Brain Soup?’ This soup dish needs both time and heat control. Firstly you need to boil the soup base with Chinese herbs, then place in the pork ribs and pork into the porcelain pot to boil till it is boiling rapidly. Then after, add the medicine and place it into convection oven to use small heat to slowly braise it. The smell of this soup is really fragrant. President, you drink the soup first, and work later.”


Upon hearing his words, Lu Shaoming lifted his head from the notebook. He stood up and came to the sofa beside the coffee table to sit down. He received the soup bowl from Zhu Rui’s hands and drank a mouthful of soup. The soup was delicious. Inside the thermos, there was also rice prepared and two other green vegetables that were stir fried by hand. The vegetables were fresh and smelled great, not lacking in the visual department either.


Lu Shaoming’s brain suddenly had the image of Ning Qing’s mother affectionate look. She was so rueful and had muttered under breath, “I heard that you went alone to England for surgery…” He thought of the time in England directly after the surgery. He had opened his eyes and looked blankly at the ward. There were people in the room, and both the doctors and nurses were present. He was getting the best medical care. But his heart was so empty, and seemed to be lacking something. It was only now that he understood – oh, it was probably his kin.


Both his mother and father were aware of his surgery, but they both did not come. He was a 31 year old man. He started Guang Qing when he was only 16. In the eyes of his parents, he hasn’t required care for a long time. He was responsible for himself. It was weird. He never did fuss about kinship and warmth in the past, but now he was so thirsty for it. Maybe one person really could not be cared for. Once he was cared for, the wrong feeling in his heart had grown. Why did Ning Qing’s mother care for him? And Ning Qing – did she like him?


Lu Shaoming frowned. Before his eyes was the mother-daughter pair walking away from him. Ning Qing was so small and helpless-looking in the arms of her own mother… For a moment, he felt…his heart was full…



After sending Yue Wanqing off, Ning Qing focused her attention back on her nerve wracking work. There were many bodyguards outside the rehearsal room. They had no choice; the actors in the room were the most popular. Other than preventing journalists, they had to prevent Guang Qing’s employees from sneaking in. Ning Qing was filming. At this moment, at the turn of the corridor, Ye Ting and a female employee hid. The female employee was aggrieved. She said, “Sister Ye, you look at the attention Ning Qing is getting now. The success should be credited to you but because of her, you have been stripped of your position of marketing manager and are now an ordinary employee. I can’t stand this injustice.”


There was jealousy in Ye Ting’s eyes. She squeezed her hands, and bent beside the female employee’s ear and said, “Little sister, you help Sister Ye with something…” That female employee nodded her head in excitement, and went away. Ye Ting watched her leave, then took out her phone to dial a number, “Hello, Madam. Everything is going according to plan.”


….



In the afternoon, the drama team were dismissed. Xiao Zhou left because she had some family matters to attend to. After the crowd left, Ning Qing saw that the ice that was supposed to be a prop was melting. She went to the freezer to get more ice. Guang Qing’s employees all left work; there was nobody in the corridor. Ning Qing went to the 12th floor, and walked into the walk in freezer. The room was blowing with cold wind and felt extremely cold. Ning Qing stepped inside and shivered, grabbing onto her shoulders, then trembled again. She stretched her hand out to select an ice cube that was pretty on the outside, and she prepared to leave. At this moment, “Pa!” the doors to the walk in freezer were shut close.


Ning Qing’s heart beat furiously, she speedily ran to open the door, but it was of no use. The door was locked from the outside. “Who is that outside? Who locked me inside her? Open the door quickly!” Ning Qing stretched out her hand to hit the door, and shouted loudly. But from outside the door, the sound of flustered footsteps could be heard. Someone ran away. It was probably the person who locked her inside who ran away.


Ning Qing was furious. Who would joke with her in such an evil way? If she knew who that person was, she would definitely not let the person go. Hmph! At this moment, Ning Qing sneezed. She hugged herself tightly. The walk in freezer was probably around negative 10 degrees, and she was dressed in thin clothes. It probably wouldn’t even take 10 minutes for her to freeze to death.


Ning Qing quickly took out her phone from her pocket and dialed a number. Lu Shaoming, who was driving on the road, received a call and he answered. “Hello.” Hearing his low and melodious voice, Ning Qing wanted to cry. This freezer was blowing cold air and the situation was alarming. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t scared. She was so cold that she was stuttering. “Hello, Young Master Lu, where are you now? I am trapped inside the freezer at the office. Can you make a call to have someone open the door for me? I am freezing cold.”


“What? Freezer? Why are you trapped inside there?” She could hear the squeal of the tires as the care came to an abrupt stop; Lu Shaoming speedily stepped on the brakes.


Because he was driving on a busy main road, once he braked, the car behind him did stop in time, and the other cars behind that vehicle didn’t escape the same fate…”Peng! Peng! Peng!” They all crashed in succession with one another. At this moment, the sound of horns rang out from all directions, and traffic came to a standstill. When everyone was about to curse, Lu Shaoming the cause of it all, violently turned the steering wheel and the Bentley flew in the direction of Guang Qing.


He left the scene of the accident.


After thinking of this, Ning Qing felt wronged, she sat on the floor and curled herself into a ball by the corner of the door, trying to give herself some warmth. “You have to ask yourself, Great President, Young Master Lu, what do you say about the people in your company? One of your employees locked me in here.” Lu Shaoming’s dark eyes were sharp, like the eyes of a hawk flying across the night sky.


“Okay, I will find them. I won’t let you be wronged for no reason.”


“Oh.” Ning Qing pouted her pink lips in response. She felt her entire body become hard, and she placed her small face between her knees. She was in blur, and felt a strong urge to sleep. Lu Shaoming saw that she was not speaking and speedily asked, “Ning Qing, what are you doing? You are not allowed to sleep, ok? I already asked someone from the security office to open the door for you. You stay conscious and persevere. I will chat with you.”


“Chat?” Ning Qing closed her eyes and had silly grin. She bit on her pink lips and said sweetly, “Young Master Lu, do you like me? Even a bit, did you ever feel that?”


She was asking if he liked her or not.


Lu Shaoming’s clear eyes violently shrunk back, he looked towards the traffic lights in the distance and was silent for 3 seconds before he said, “Yeah.”


His “Yeah” did not get a response from the girl, the sound of a phone dropping came from the other end, and Ning Qing closed her eyes and really fell asleep. She did not hear his reply.


“Ning Qing! Ning Qing!” Lu Shaoming called out twice. This well-educated man could not hold back and cursed in English. He stepped on the accelerator to its maximum, and the Bentley flew across. The people on the road saw and could not help but say,” Oh my goodness, what has happened to that person? He’s driving so quickly! He has no regard for his life.”


….


The security guard opened the doors to the freezer. The moment he opened the doors, Ning Qing was already frozen until her body was hard. Her body fell as the door opened, and she collapsed onto the floor. “Miss Ning, Miss Ning….” The little security guard saw Ning Qing with shut eyes, and was contemplating whether he should call an ambulance.


But at this moment, a black suave figure came over quickly. He bent down to sweep Ning Qing off her feet and brought her away. After the man left like a gust of wind, the little security guard then realized that the man was his President, and he immediately nodded and bowed down. “President.” There was no glimpse of his president in front of him anymore.


….


Lu Shaoming carried Ning Qing into his own office. He kicked the door of the relaxation room open, and placed Ning Qing on the bed. “Ning Qing, wake up.” Lu Shaoming lightly patted her delicate, pale face. Lu Shaoming turned on the heater of the room. The difference in temperature between the freezer and here made Ning Qing regain some consciousness. She was shivering from head to toe. Her two slim arms wrapped tightly around herself, and she flipped sideways and rolled herself into a small ball. Her small chin was rubbing against the soft blanket non-stop as she looked for warmth, and she frowned and murmured saying, “Cold, it’s freezing cold.” Lu Shaoming touched her small hand. Her white hand could still actively move around, she did not need to go to the hospital. He stood up, wanting to find two more blankets.


But his large hand was grabbed by the girl. She seemed to be looking for warmth, and she placed his large hand beside her cheek. She seemed to be somewhat satisfied, letting out a “Woo.” Lu Shaoming looked at her beautiful face. He had a darkness in his eyes. His palm by his side clenched, then released. He lifted his hand, and removed the suit on his body.



After a moment, Ning Qing got the warmth that she wanted. It was really very warm. It brought along some touch of scalding heat. She turned her body and used two hands to hug the man’s strong waist, then she lifted her slim legs to tangle with his sturdy thighs, placing her entire body in his embrace.


Lu Shaoming slept by her side. The girl was like an octopus that came bothering him; he wasn’t too used to it, and his entire body was tight. He knew that she was cold. He placed her two slim legs between his thighs, and rubbed her cold little feet. The girl won an inch, and now wanted a foot, maybe because he was being good to her. She let out a “Woo.” Her small hands found their way to his shirt buttons, and she buried her small face into his strong chest.


This was still not enough. Her small hand explored inside, and she touched his 6 pack abs and gurgled in laughter twice. Lu Shaoming laughed hoarsely. This girl must not have known that she has exposed her perverted nature in her sleep.


Has she coveted him for a long time?


Heh.


Lu Shaoming used his hands to dim the lights by the bed. Her body was fragrant. It was not the scent of chemically made fragrance, but it was her own girly body scent. It was clear and sweet.


Her soft hair touched his strong jaw. He picked up the scent of shampoo. Her hair was well maintained, and it had the feeling of silk. Lu Shaoming felt a little uncomfortable. At this moment, all men would have some reaction. He could not help but do so also. But his hand only held onto her small shoulders, maintaining the distance of a gentleman.


He still did not have a woman. He had a pure heart and few desires. He did not desire a woman whom he did not know. If there is such a day when he meets someone that he likes, he would want to marry her first, then engage in intimate acts with her. He lowered his gaze to look at the girl in his embrace. Did she like him? His heart started to beat faster. Today, he also felt a strong urge from his body. It was the first time he had such feelings for a girl. It was very alien.


Lu Shaoming used his finger to touch her little nose that was refined like a piece of fine jade and murmured softly, “Ning Qing, do you know what my name is? Don’t look for his shadow on me; I am only me – Lu Shaoming.”
