Chapter 665: Chapter 663: Do You Want Me to Accompany You?_1
His strong arms propped against the tree trunk, encircling her between himself and the tree.
Then, the man slowly lowered his head, kissing the person in his embrace.
Xia Ningxing’s feathery eyelashes trembled gently, her hands involuntarily climbing around his neck, responding to his kiss.
Time seemed to stop, frozen at this moment.
Not knowing how much time had passed, Xia Ningxing, with flushed cheeks, pushed him away, "Lu, it’s getting late, we should head back."
"Hmm," Lu Tingli reached out and tousled her hair.
Xia Ningxing added, "Let’s walk one behind the other, so as not to give people the wrong idea."
Since Lu Tingli wore a hat and a mask to hide his identity and claimed to be allergic to willow catkins, nobody suspected anything.
"Whatever you say," Lu Tingli had no objections, smiling as he looked at her, "You go first, and I’ll watch you."
After exchanging a glance with him, Xia Ningxing started walking out.
Once outside, Jiang Miaomiao, who had finished parachuting, ran up to her, "Ningxing, where did you run off to? I looked for you for so long and couldn’t find you."
"I didn’t run off anywhere, just took a stroll," Xia Ningxing felt too embarrassed to tell her what had happened and so she coughed lightly, telling a small fib.
"Is that so..." Jiang Miaomiao seemed half-convinced, "But why is your face so red, and your lips a bit swollen?"
It looked as though...
Jiang Miaomiao already couldn’t help but let her thoughts wander in that direction.
"Maybe it’s just too hot!" Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but look up at the sky, already suspecting that she wouldn’t be able to keep her secret much longer.
Jiang Miaomiao, sensing something amiss, suddenly changed the subject, "Ningxing, do you think I look stupid?"
"No, what’s wrong?" Xia Ningxing shook her head unconsciously.
"Then why would you tell such a naive lie? I should say you went off to kiss and cuddle with your husband, right!" Jiang Miaomiao whispered in her ear.
Xia Ningxing: "..."
"No need to deny it, I just happened to see Lu Tingli coming out of the woods too," Jiang Miaomiao crossed her arms, analyzing like a detective, "If I didn’t know about your relationship before, I would have thought it was a coincidence, but not now."
Hearing this, Xia Ningxing suddenly smiled, "Could I ask a favor of you?"
"Do you want me to keep a secret? No problem!" Jiang Miaomiao replied instinctively.
Xia Ningxing: "I want you to shut up!"
Jiang Miaomiao: "...Okay, okay, I’ll shut up, I didn’t see anything!"
As she spoke, the girl covered her eyes, as if affirming her words, and chuckled like a silver bell.
Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but laugh along.
Having such a good friend in this strange country and brutal training camp made the trip worthwhile.
"Miaomiao, I hope we can be friends for life," Xia Ningxing said earnestly.
Jiang Miaomiao, with a smile on her face, took her hand and said from the heart, "I also want to be friends with Ningxing for life!"
At that moment, neither of them expected the outcome of their friendship would be so...
"Let go of her hand," a displeased male voice came from behind them at that moment.
Turning around, they saw that, unbeknownst to them, Lu Tingli was standing behind them.
His sharp eyes were fixed intently on their hands, as if wanting to bore a hole through them.
This look, almost as if it had a physical force, made Jiang Miaomiao’s hand ache, "Your husband sure is jealous!"
Jiang Miaomiao let go of Xia Ningxing’s delicate hand while complaining.
Xia Ningxing smiled, unable to deny it.
If it wasn’t for Lu getting jealous, he wouldn’t be himself.
"By the way, Lu, what kind of training do we have for the next few days?" Xia Ningxing asked again.
If one counted on their fingers, they would realize there weren’t many days left until the training ended.
Hearing this, Jiang Miaomiao also curiously stared at Lu Tingli.
"Mountain climbing, desert trekking, and a trip to the Arctic," Lu Tingli replied to them.
No, to be precise, he was only answering Xia Ningxing; not even the corner of his eye was given to Jiang Miaomiao beside him, as if she did not exist at all.
Jiang Miaomiao: "..."
Xia Ningxing nodded: "So, there aren’t many left."
"We can finally breathe a sigh of relief!" Jiang Miaomiao couldn’t help exclaiming.
God knows what inhuman training they had all been through in the short span of a month.
She now felt like she could take down a six-foot tall, burly man with her bare hands.
By the time the final few trainings were finished, out of the original thirty female stars, only six remained after several rounds of selections.
These included Xia Ningxing, Jiang Miaomiao, Bei’an, Mo Xue, and two other female stars.
In other words, there would be six female stars competing for the lead role.
It might be called a competition, but everyone was clear that the lead role this time was destined for Xia Ningxing.
After all, her performance had been witnessed by everyone on a regular basis.
Even Bei’an couldn’t match her.
Furthermore, Director Carl was also very fond of her.
At that moment, Director Carl was holding a microphone, announcing: "Congratulations on completing a month of trials. You will now have a two-day vacation, after which we will commence the final casting. The person with the top score will become the lead actress, the second will be the supporting actress, and the third will play the third female role. If someone renounces their part, for example, if someone does not wish to play the supporting actress, then the third place will move up, and so on..."
Director Carl was quite pleased with these remaining six individuals, especially Xia Ningxing, who was already the lead actress in his heart.
So, his concluding remarks were actually directed at Bei’an.
After all, as an international star, she would probably not accept being second to Xia Ningxing.
Bei’an naturally caught on, and while she showed no emotion on the surface, her fingers clenched tight at her sides, and a rush of anger flared up within her.
But she quickly lost her anger.
After all, Xia Ningxing would soon be dying at her hands, so what was there to be angry about!
She should feel happy, in fact!
"You’re dismissed for now. Everyone please make the most of the two-day holiday, and have fun," Director Carl said, offering a rare smile to everyone.
After Director Carl left, Jiang Miaomiao hopped over to Xia Ningxing, "Ningxing, are you going to train some more on your day off, or are you going out to hang around?"
Xia Ningxing had already made plans, so she replied without any hesitation: "Of course I’m going out to have fun."
She wasn’t worried about the final competition at all, so of course she wanted to enjoy herself.
Jiang Miaomiao asked again in a chirpy tone, "So where are you going to have fun? Do you want me to come with you? I might not be a native UA citizen, but I grew up in the capital of UA, and I’m very familiar with all the streets, alleys, and famous spots here!"
She blinked her eyes vigorously, eagerly promoting herself.
