My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Chapter 199 - Investing In A Media Company

“That’s right, I am going to look for Lu Shaoming.” Ning Qing lifted her gaze to look at the azure blue sky and fluffy white clouds outside the French windows. Lu Shaoming had been gone on a business trip for 10 whole days and had not returned. With a blink of an eye, half a month had already flown by.

She missed him very much.

Furthermore she did not have much time left, and could only travel a thousand miles to search for her husband.

Xiao Zhou looked at Ning Qing’s depressed look and immediately stretched her arms to cup her shoulders. “Ning Qing, don’t be sad. It is with no doubt that Young Master Lu likes you. If it was not the case, Young Master Lu would also not let Sun Jun disappear from T City. Wait for him to return to see how you professed your love in front of the entire city. He will probably be very happy.”

“Yes.” Ning Qing nodded her head and said, “I hope that is the case then.”

The last time he kissed her forehead in the car, he said that he wanted to try liking her, but the next day he left on a business trip without leaving a message behind. He did not answer the calls that she had given him. He also did not reply to the messages that she had sent him. She felt the cold aloofness that he had for her.

What happened to him?

In the afternoon, Ning Qing brought Xiao Zhou along to the Emperor Entertainment Group HQ.

Xu Junxi’s secretary opened the main doors of the office, and a beautiful woman ran out from the office with flushed cheeks and brushed past Ning Qing.

Ning Qing lifted up her eyebrows and walked over with a normal expression.

She walked into the office, and Xu Junxi was in the midst of standing up from his office chair. He walked around the table to come in front of Ning Qing, and he gave a warm smile. “Ning Qing, you are here.”

“That’s right, President Xu. I just saw a beautiful woman run out from your office. Did I interrupt you from engaging in something good?” Ning Qing asked cheekily.

“Oh, her. She is my girlfriend, and it feels pretty good after dating her for half a year/ Don’t misunderstand us; she is a stereotypical daughter of a wealthy family, and she would even blush when we hold hands. We did not do anything.”

Ning Qing understood what was going on. It was probably a daughter from a wealthy family that his mother recommended to him. He felt she was not bad, so he dated her.

She felt comforted inside her heart. It seems that Xu Junxi has finally walked away from the past.

The two of them sat on the sofa, and Xu Junxi handed a document to Ning Qing, “These are the top 10 best media companies in the industry with the best prospects. Which company do you want to invest in? You want to start up your own studio. I am also arranging that for you. After a few days, the list of names will come in, and you select the artists with whom you’d want to sign a contract.”

Ning Qing lowered her gaze down as she flipped through the document seriously. Actually she had already started to focus on media companies last year, and the documents that Xu Junxi have given to her were very professional.

She felt that by looking for Xu Junxi, he was the person whom she could rely on the most.

She lifted her eyes and said with a smile, “President Xu, thank you. I do not know too much about this industry. I need you to teach me how to strike it big in the future.”

“Ning Qing, I feel very weird. You want to invest in an entertainment company. Could it be that my Emperor Entertainment Group is not good? So many people want to invest in Emperor Entertainment Group. You would ignore the relations that you have and not choose to use these connections?”

Relations?

Was he referring to himself?

Xu Junxi wanted her to invest in Emperor Entertainment Group.

It was indeed a stable investment.

Ning Qing tucked a bundle of hair by her cheek behind her ear and said teasingly, “Emperor Entertainment Group is too good. The numerous artists you have under your management are all big shots, so it is hard for a newbie like me to succeed.”

As she spoke, Ning Qing’s small fingers pointed to Island Wide Entertainment Media on the document and said, “President Xu, I think I want to try this one. When do you have time to introduce me to the president of Island Wide Film and Media? We can meet and talk about me buying their shares and our tie up then.”

Xu Junxi lowered his gaze down to scan the document. Ning Qing’s taste was very special, this Island Wide was the most underdeveloped among all the 10 media companies, but they had the best middle ground in the context of family content in the market. If she invested in them, with her popularity and market power, the share prices of Island Wide would definitely rise and double within a year.

“Sure, I will let the secretary make a call to the president of Island Wide later, and when the meal appointment is fixed, I will bring you along.” Xu Junxi agreed speedily.

“Then I will thank President Xu.” Ning Qing stood up and continued, “I still have other matters to attend to. I will be making a move.”

“Ning Qing.” Xu Junxi opened his mouth to stop her and said, “Do you have money to invest in Island Wide Film and Media? After establishing your own work studio and signing contracts with your own artists, this would be a huge investment.”

Last year, she filmed one Wind and Dust, then paused her entertainment activities to go back to school. And now although her endorsements and stage production had brought her an immense amount of popularity, she probably did not have enough money for an investment.

“Ning Qing, what about this, I will invest in your work studio, and I will be responsible for all your funds, and we will split the profits at the end of the year?”

“There is no need, President Xu. You really look down on me. I have money…”

“Heh, where did you get so much money? Ning Qing, the things that happened in the past are all in the past. I have my own life now, so you don’t have to draw a line specially. Business is business. I recognize your abilities, so we can earn money together.”

Ning Qing still declined him. She shook her head with a smile, and said, “President Xu, I really do have money. Have you forgotten who my husband is? Shaoming will help me, so you don’t have to worry. I am really leaving. If you have time, let’s ask your girlfriend out for a meal together. Bye bye.”

Ning Qing brought Xiao Zhou along to walk out of the office.

The two of them left Emperor Entertainment Group. Xiao Zhou could not help but ask Ning Qing, “Ning Qing, what was with you boasting to Xu Junxi just now? Where did you get money from? The film last year, Wind and Dust — your pay was not high and so when you returned to school, you did not earn any money. You did actually earn money from slly and Cabbage Plume’s endorsement this year, but we are going to end up in trouble if we invest in our own work studio and an entertainment company. President Xu has already said that he wanted to invest in our studio and fund us. Why did you not agree to it? We would be so pathetic relying on Island Wide Entertainment Media. furthermore, President Xu has a girlfriend now already, why are you being so coy now? You will only tire yourself out.”

Ning Qing replied, “You don’t understand.”

“Yes yes, I don’t understand. Let me ask you: Would you really look for Young Master Lu for help?”

“I won’t.” What kind of joke was this? They still did not have a stable relationship, and if she went to look for him to ask for money, what would he think about her?

Xiao Zhou could not help but jump up. “Look, I just knew you wouldn’t! You…”

“Xiao Zhou.” Ning Qing stopped in her tracks to pat Xiao Zhou’s shoulder and she smiled confidently, “Then let me ask you, who is the most popular in the entertainment industry now?”

“Why did you even have to ask, of course it is you,” Xiao Zhou claimed proudly.

“Then isn’t it all done? I, Ning Qing am a golden signboard myself. Don’t worry, I will focus on work solely after I return from Europe. When that time comes, you help me look for some endorsements, then the money will start rolling in.”

Xiao Zhou sighed. She cupped Ning Qing’s shoulders as they boarded the limo and nagged saying, “Although you word it like this, you will have it tough, Ning Qing.” Actually I know that you are afraid of having vague relations with Xu Junxi again and causing misunderstandings with Young Master Lu. But it is naturally harder for us women to start being entrepreneurs. You only have to have a clear conscience and you can allow yourself to relax a little.

“Ay, Ning Qing, when do you think Young Master Lu will regain his memories? It will be great once he recovers his memories. He would not allow you to continue being in this position — having to face your mother in law on one hand, and working as an entrepreneur on the other hand. Also, you still have to make him fall in love with you again. There are 3 concurrent problems at hand.”

Ning Qing’s nose was red at its tip, and she stretched out her arm to embrace Xiao Zhou’s waist as she said with red rimmed eyes, “Xiao Zhou, thank you. You’re the only one who understands me.”

Others only looked at her high status and great accolades, and only Xiao Zhou knew her hardships and stress.

Actually, she did not think it was too hard.

She was only a little upset. Lu Shaoming, her husband, he went to Europe for so many days and he did not give her any updates. He did not miss her at all.

It has been two months since he had lost his memories, but every day felt like a year to her.

Lu Shaoming was so different now, and she was not used to the way he acted. His cold and distance also hurt her deeply, but she did not have the time to be upset as there was a 3 months promise, and Song Yajing treated her like an enemy.

She also did not have the opportunity to act coy or be stubborn; the Lu Shaoming who used to pamper her and allow her to be coy towards him had disappeared.

Her Lu Shaoming — when will he come back?

Xu Junxi stood at the French windows to look downwards. The two small girls downstairs had their hands around each other’s shoulders as they boarded the limo, and the limo slowly drove off.

His secretary stood behind him to ask, “Boss, everyone in T city knows that Lu Shaoming has lost his memory; why would he still help Miss Ning? Since Miss Ning lacks money, why did she reject your offer?”

Xu Junxi curled his lips up mockingly and said, “It is because Young Master Lu has lost his memories now — she is afraid that I would take this opportunity to pester her.”

The secretary laughed and said, “Actually Miss Ning bringing in money is only a matter of time. Based on her popularity now, taking a few more endorsements and filming more works would suffice. She has to work harder and be more tired”

The crystal LED screen in front of Xu Junxi was playing Ning Qing’s acceptance speech at the Golden Lightning Awards. It was only a single award presentation, but the audience at the scene was behaving like it was her own personal concert…

It also made sense. Just because of her presence, the awards this year were able to cover and snatch the headlines over the glow of the Oscars.

Compared to the Golden Lightning Awards, the Oscars Awards this time were basically nothing.

He had anticipated her current success. Her acting was good, and when she received the Best Actress award last year, he did not think it was weird. Her acting was worthy of the glory. Not everybody could do what she does. He saw her stage play, and he felt amazed by it.

She went back to school for 3 months to study, and it was as if she had transformed into a different person entirely.

Sometimes he still did not understand her too well. She was not like any girl in this world. Wasn’t she affected by Lu Shaoming’s memory loss? This impact would probably be like the sky falling down on her because her man disappeared, but she did not show any sadness.

She went into Guang Qing wanting to create a commercial, and while she was helping Lu Shaoming, she was also helping herself. She improved drastically in her acting and was interested in improving herself. She was the image of popularity.

Ning Qing being like this made him take another look at her.

They had already known each other for 20 years, and he did not think that she would have her success she had today.

Listen to what she was saying?

She said there would be a Lu Shaoming living in every woman’s heart…

She was using her own strength to profess her love in front of the entire city.

She gave Lu Shaoming the love of an entire city.

If he said that he did not feel disappointment and jealousy in his heart, that would be a lie. It turned out that the girl who was in full bloom belonged to him. Her love that had won over the city was also his…

But she gave it to Lu Shaoming now.

She did not allow him to invest, and she was telling him wordlessly, Xu Junxi, lead your own life well, I will continue to protect my Lu Shaoming…

Heh.
