Chapter 44: Become Lucky After Meeting You

Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Become Lucky After Meeting YouLu Beichen passed the menu to her, "Order whatever you want to eat!" She took the menu and began browsing through it, making her selections. Lu Beichen clasped his hands together, resting his chin on them, as he looked at her across the table, "The service in this restaurant is quite good, and we even became their lucky customers. Being with you is full of surprises!" He seemed to be speaking to himself. Ji Niandong glanced up at him, replying in a small voice, "It’s being with you that makes me so lucky!" She quickly finished choosing the dishes, "Why don’t you also check if there’s anything else you want to add?" Then she puffed her cheeks slightly, saying embarrassedly, "You probably don’t mind me refusing to marry you back then, right?" Lu Beichen was startled, then laughed and asked, "If I did mind, how would you make it up to me?" "You actually mind?!" She spoke with a slightly mischievous tone, then lowered her head, not saying anything. Lu Beichen’s smile deepened. It seemed she was gradually opening her heart to him and was beginning to show her true feelings. "You already belong to me, so why would I mind?" He gestured for the waiter and handed over the menu. Adjusting his posture, he asked, "Is the contract signed yet?" Ji Niandong suddenly looked up, a bit hesitant and troubled, "Little Uncle, do you really want to sign me?" "Why not? I believe you can succeed. Are you giving up on yourself now?" He took a sip of the plain water in front of him, glancing sideways at her. "I’m not sure!" She lowered her head a bit, "I want to enroll in a class specifically to learn acting! My line delivery is weak, and my acting needs work. Even if I suddenly got a big break now, I might fall just as quickly. So, I want to learn first!" "That doesn’t affect you joining YT Entertainment; we need artists who are constantly improving. Have you decided where you want to study? I can introduce you to a great teacher!" Lu Beichen offered help at the right time. "Really?" Ji Niandong immediately perked up. Lu Beichen nodded, "Do you remember Sheng Mingyuan? He used to be the top star in the entertainment industry and opened his own studio to teach acting after he retired. I happen to know him and can introduce you!" He was once considered the top male star alongside Tong Lu, a major figure in the entertainment industry. They say he has a volatile and eccentric personality and only takes on top-notch students. Would someone like him accept her? Ji Niandong felt a bit insecure, "I didn’t even go to college; would he take me?" "He only takes talents with a natural gift for acting, not necessarily those with high academic qualifications!" Lu Beichen continued to encourage her, "If you keep doubting yourself, even if I want to help you, it would be difficult to achieve your dreams." Ji Niandong understood what he meant and nodded, "Don’t worry, Little Uncle. I will definitely work hard and do my best!" That’s the spirit of his Mrs. Lu! Lu Beichen’s lips curled into a satisfied smile as the waiter began to serve the dishes. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lingzhi pigeon soup with walnuts, braised winter melon with lotus seeds, steamed cod with black bean sauce, spinach stir-fried with chicken oil... these dishes are really all about health! "Little Uncle, try these dishes and see if you like them?" Ji Niandong looked at him with wide eyes, worried that he might not like the dishes she chose. Lu Beichen picked up a piece with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth, "That little girl said you’re perfect for home life, and she was spot on. Everything is so light and healthy; no wonder my wife’s skin looks so fresh and dewy!" Even while eating, he couldn’t help but tease her. Ji Niandong blushed, "If you like it, eat more!"
