Chapter 8: Cute

Probably because he had decided on his schedule for Sunday and had some expectations, Lu Xuan was in such a good mood that he approved the biggest project with a wave of his hand.

When Zhang Xinyu came out with the document, he was still a little bit incredulous. Soon, the internal WeChat group was talking about it.

Chang Qing was also in it, and he was more idle than the others. So he saw the news immediately, which said that Lu Xuan was going to buy a popular Xianxia IP.

This Xianxia novel was originally called “Sword Immortal”. It was a xianxia masterpiece that had been serialized for two years. During the serialization period, it had already occupied the first place on the gold medal best seller list of the Ling Dian website for an entire year. It was without equal in popularity, there were also many fans including some female fans. The book was not finished yet, but the Ling Dian website had already announced that it was going to sell the copyright of the “Sword Immortal”, movie, video game, animation, and so on. However, because of the high copyright fees, many established film and television companies were hesitant and had a wait-and-see attitude, not wanting to make the first move.

As for an entertainment company like Tianxing, it would be too difficult for them to take down “Sword Immortal” alone. Even if they had the backing of the Lu group, making such a decisive decision would still cause the top shareholders of the Lu group to complain.

The risk is a little too great.

However, Lu Xuan’s approval of the “Sword Immortal” project also shows that they can fight for Tianxing. Even if they can’t eat all of it, they can share the cake with other companies.

In the end, it was also good news. The crowd was so lively that Chang Qing couldn’t help but frown when he looked at it.

Lu Zheng had won the production of “Sword Fairy” in the original novel. He had even hired the most famous director and scriptwriter to work on it. In the original novel, it had indeed become a very popular drama and had directly made many actors popular. The male lead, Lin Yifeng, also became popular because he obtained the role of second male lead and burst into popularity.

“Sword Immortal” was Lin Yifeng’s starting point for his battle in the entertainment industry. A lot of ink was spent on him in the book so he had a good sense of existence, and left quite an impression.

Such a play was actually touched by Lu Xuan.

Chang Qing felt that something was wrong. He typed and asked, “Is the show ‘What should I do if my boyfriend is too domineering?’  going to be broadcast in July during the summer vacation?”

His news was covered very quickly. Fortunately, Zhang Xinyu was also in it, so he replied to him: “Are you a boyfriend fan?”

Chang Qing replied: “Yes.”

Zhang Xinyu replied: “This drama has been completed. It’s being submitted for trial. It’s expected that the result will be available in two weeks.”

Chang Qing replied, “Thank you.”

Putting down the phone, Chang Qing got up and knocked on Lu Xuan’s office  door.

Lu Xuan’s muffled voice came from inside: “Come in.”

Chang Qing entered the office and closed the door behind him.

Lu Xuan looked up at him, paused, and asked, “Is there anything wrong?”

Chang Qing said, “Do you really want to buy the copyright of “Sword Immortal”?”

Lu Xuan said, “The copyright fee is a bit high, but it’s easy to adapt and easy to get fans. Tianxing has no first-tier stars, only two second-tier stars and a few third-tier stars have been dug up. If there is money to dig people, it is better to make stars by yourself.”

Chang Qing glanced at the door and asked him: “Can I sit?”

Lu Xuan felt a little amused, “Sit down.” He said to Chang Qing in a warm voice.

Chang Qing sat opposite Lu Xuan, and he was thinking about one thing: is this the butterfly effect? Because of his appearance, the plot has also changed.

If that’s the case, it’s okay. He was mostly afraid that no matter what he did, he’d just be spinning in place, and wouldn’t be able to change the ending.  If he could change something, it meant there was a chance.

Lu Xuan’s car accident was entirely the fault of the driver, Wu Junyong. There was nothing suspicious about the accident of Lu Chenghui and his wife. It was nothing more than a drunken car driver who directly flattened the car of Lu Chenghui and his wife. Both the party that was hit and the other side died of serious injuries.

And Lu Xuan’s death was caused by Wu Junyong’s sudden madness. The car directly hit and killed an old grandmother who was crossing the road with her grandson.

In that car accident, Lu Xuan died, the old woman died, and so did the little boy. Only Wu Junyong survived.

There was no doubt about this car accident. Wu Junyong had a family inherited psychosis. His mother and grandmother were both crazy, and Wu Junyong’s “madness” was also determined to be an episodic mental problem. He could not control his behavior and avoided criminal responsibility. However, he was sent to a mental hospital.

However, how could Lu Zheng let him live? Wu Junyong finally died in an accident.

It wasn’t until Lu Zheng himself had an accident that he found the problem.

Whether it was the drunken truck driver, Wu Junyong, or the second-generation ancestor who attacked Lu Zheng, there was a shadow of the same person.

Chang Qing thought of this and asked Lu Xuan, “Where did you arrange for your previous driver to go?”

Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, as if he didn’t expect him to ask about Wu Junyong, “Wu Junyong? I fired him. ”

Chang Qing was surprised, “Why did you fire him?”

Lu Xuan said: “He has been driving for me for ten years, so he shouldn’t keep driving for me.”

Chang Qing laughed, “How much salary did you give him? Isn’t he already at 10,000? Such a high salary, and he’s only working less than five hours a day. You fired him because you’re worried about him, but he might even resent you.”

Lu Xuan didn’t react to this either. He said calmly, “I don’t think he wants to drive all the time either, so if you say to change drivers, I will fire him.”

The ** and ambition in a person’s eyes can’t fool anyone1. Lu Xuan has always known that Wu Junyong is no good. He always seemed to have something to hide. Lu Xuan doesn’t like him very much, but he drives very steadily. He has been driving for him since he was 20 years old. It’s been eight years now, and he’s used to it. If it wasn’t for Chang Qing saying he wanted to change it, he wouldn’t have changed it.

Hearing what he said, Chang Qing understood, “It’s better to fire him.”

He was somewhat distracted, “He won’t take revenge on you, right?”

Lu Xuan thought for a few seconds, somewhat hesitant, “Not likely.”

Chang Qing didn’t speak, Lu Xuan glanced at him, and saw that he suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed the pen in Lu Xuan’s hand, and then slowly pulled it out.

“I’m here, and you’re looking at the document instead of me?” Chang Qing asked softly and unreasonably.

Lu Xuan was accustomed to this. He always seemed to be a little awkward in this respect and always wanted the other party to take the initiative.

After Chang Qing finished speaking, Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment. Soon, his gaze fell from the document on the table to Chang Qing’s hand. He blinked slowly and suddenly reached out to hold Chang Qing’s slender and clean fingers.

Chang Qing in turn pinched Lu Xuan’s palm.

Lu Xuan glanced at him, moved his mouth, stretched out his other hand and slowly took off the ring on his finger.

Lu Xuan is taller than Chang Qing, with a thicker body and thicker and longer fingers than him. However, they were also the hands of a scholar. They were fair and delicate, not so soft, and carried a strong sense of strength.

He grabbed Chang Qing’s hand and slowly put the ring on his slender fingers.

Lu Xuan’s finger was a little bigger than his, but it wasn’t much bigger. The ring that belonged to Lu Xuan was on Chang Qing’s finger, so it wasn’t obvious that it wasn’t Chang Qing’s ring.

After he did this, he glanced at Chang Qing again. His eyes were warm and bright.

Chang Qing stretched out his finger. He looked at the low-key and luxurious pale luster of the ring on his pale finger, and smiled, “I don’t know if it’s because I stole it from your hand, but it looks much better than mine.”

After speaking, he shook his head again, sighed and said, “I don’t know how to cherish it when I have it, and I regret it when I lose it.”

Lu Xuan said concisely, “You wear mine first.”

Chang Qing wanted to say something when a phone call came in. He looked down and glanced at the incoming call. It was a meaningless letter “X”.

Chang Qing’s heart skipped a beat, and suddenly his hands felt a little hot. X was Qin Lang.

What’s this guy doing calling him?!

Chang Qing’s scalp was numb and he immediately hung up the phone.

“Who was it?” Lu Xuan asked.

Chang Qing said: “…Oh, it’s a spam call.”

Lu Xuan believed him. He frowned and said, “I’ll give you another cell phone.”

Chang Qing: “It’s not because of the mobile phone. I went to the beauty salon and left a phone number. Now I always receive a call from the beauty salon to inform me of any activities.”

He said in a casual tone, and Lu Xuan didn’t think anything was wrong, so it wasn’t exposed.

Chang Qing turned the ring on his finger and said with a smile, “It’s still a little too big. What if I lose it again?”

The corner of Lu Xuan’s lips curled slightly, and he said with a straight face: “Just change to a new one.”

Chang Qing laughed. He folded his palms and said, “Okay, then I’ll keep it.”

Lu Xuan: “Hmm.”

Chang Qing stood up, “Then I’m going out?”

Lu Xuan said, “Wait.”

Chang Qing looked at him, “Is something wrong?”

Lu Xuan asked, “Are you a fan of “Sword Immortal”?”

Chang Qing shook his head. “No.” After a pause, he smiled and said, “I was just looking for an excuse to see you.”

Lu Xuan’s thin face flushed. He cleared his throat and said solemnly: “Wait, I still have some things for you to do.”

Men sao is men sao, in the end it was still transparent. Chang Qing was in a happy mood. He sat back and said, “Good boss, boss you tell me.”

Lu Xuan glanced at him then quickly looked away. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he pressed them down and pursed them into a straight line. “Look at these documents.”

Chang Qing pretended to be distressed: “Boss, I don’t understand.”

Lu Xuan: “You can ask me.”

Chang Qing really couldn’t help but want to laugh, and he did honestly laugh.

Lu Xuan asked: “…What are you laughing at?”

Chang Qing was so happy that he tried his best to stop his laughter and said, “I’m laughing at you. You’re very cute.”

Lu Xuan: “…”

He looked at him helplessly and replied, “You’re cute too.”

Chang Qing pushed the document back, “You see, I can’t understand it. I can make you some coffee, but not anything else.”

Even if he idles around like a salted fish, he was open and aboveboard.

As he said this, he stood up, looked down at him, smiled, and said, “I’ll make you coffee.”

Lu Xuan saw him out and pinched his temple a little melancholic, feeling a little silly.

Not having a ring on his hand was a little uncomfortable, but he was happy.

Perhaps it was because Chang Qing was by his side that even going to work had become more enjoyable.
