Chapter 403
Yue Wanqing looked at Xiao Zhou. She did not look ill and also did not take it to heart. She was cooking something in the kitchen, so she walked into the kitchen.
Xiao Zhou came before the doors of the wine brewing room. She appeared to be in a dilemma, and she shut her eyes at the last moment, then she stretched out her hand to open the door to the wine brewing room.
Ning Qing came to Jian Han’s condominium unit, and pressed the doorbell.
After a long while, the door opened up.
Jian Han was dressed in a pyjamas suited to wear at home. She had a white cotton t shirt with blue stripes, matched together with loose blue long pants on the bottom. She did not tie her hair up, and her hair was messily let down over her shoulders.
“Older Sister Jian, what were you doing inside the house? Why did you only open the door now? Older Sister Jian, your face is so pale, are you really alright?” Ning Qing asked worriedly as she stretched her hand out to touch Jian Han’s forehead.
“I am fine.” Jian Han shook her head, and she stretched out her hand to hold onto Ning Qing’s small hand. “I was sleeping just now, so I didn’t hear the sound of the doorbell.”
“Sleeping? It is already noon now. Older Sister Jian, why are you still sleeping? Older Sister Jian is turning into a lazy piglet.” Ning Qing winked her eyes playfully while she spoke.
Older Sister Jian craved bliss like that so badly.
“Older Sister Jian…”
Jian Han laughed lightly. “Ning Qing, I am fine. Listening to you and Young Master Lu’s story, I feel very happy, and I am very happy for you… Ning Qing, I have already bought my plane tickets to return to Singapore, both you and Young Master Lu have to continue living well.”
Ning Qing was taken aback. “Older Sister Jian, you want to leave?”
“Yeah.” Jian Han nodded her head. “I really want to leave this time. After I leave, I will probably not come back again. Ning Qing, we will meet again if there’s fate.”
The tip of Ning Qing’s nose became sour. She went forward to hold onto Jian Han’s elbow and nudged it cutely. “Older Sister Jian, don’t be like this. Why did you suddenly decide to return to Singapore? I am not even mentally prepared for it at all. No way, no matter what, Older Sister Jian also needs to wait for me to finish competing in the red wine competition before you leave. I have the confidence. I will definitely get the first position in the competition.”
Ning Qing was acting cute, and Jian Han was unable to resist. She had a smile on her face in the end as she said, “Okay, Ning Qing, then I will wait for the red wine competition to be over before I leave. You definitely need to be the champion. If not, you will be letting me down.”
“Sure, Older Sister Jian, I definitely will.”
The day of the red wine competition
Ning Qing, Xiao Zhou and a few staff members sat in the luxurious business utility vehicle, and everyone was chatting. “Director Ning, this is your first battle after formally entering the world of red wine. The meaning behind this is special. We all have predicted that you would definitely be able to withstand the odds and be able to take over the headlines.
“That’s right, Director Ning. Others do not know anything about the wine that you have brewed. We still do not know. That is almost the brew among the angels on earth. From today onwards, our Yi Fan Red wine will create a new breakthrough for itself.”
Ning Qing gurgled in laughter. She was displeased as she said, “You all have such sweet mouths. Sure, after I take the championship and return, we will have a celebratory party. Everything would be on me.”
“Sure, Director Ning! It’s on the record.” Everyone broke out into laughter.
At this moment, Ning Qing turned her gaze sideways to look at Xiao Zhou. Xiao Zhou was looking outside the window, and it was obvious that she was not paying attention. If this were a normal day, she would be the first person to cheer out loud.
“Xiao Zhou.” Ning Qing held Xiao Zhou’s hand, smiled, and asked, “What beautiful scenery is outside the window? What are you so attracted to?”
Xiao Zhou turned her head around. She avoided Ning Qing’s bright, clear eyes and concealed it as she said, “Oh, I am only thinking, where are we going to hold the celebratory banquet tonight?”
“Xiao Zhou, it is still too early for you to be pondering such a concern. Who knows if I will meet with an incident in the red wine competition and fail? If I fail in this competition, our Yi Fan red wine cannot shoot to fame, and I am afraid that Yi Fan would have to take a longer route to success. Xiao Zhou, what do you think?”
Ning Qing specified the importance of the competition, and she looked firmly at Xiao Zhou.
Xiao Zhou guiltily lowered her gaze. She said, “Haha, Ning Qing, I believe you. You will definitely be able to succeed.”
Ning Qing did not say anything when she heard her words. She withdrew her hand that was holding onto Xiao Zhou’s hand and sighed deeply inside her heart.
The large hall of the competition was illuminated with sparkling lights. Not only did were most famous journalists and media outlets gathered together, but those with money, power, and status were all invited. It was a glamorous and luxurious event.
Everyone was chatting in hushed tones among the classical music that was playing in the hall. They were chatting happily. At this moment, the doors of the main hall was opened up by two attendants, and a figure walked in.
Lu Shaoming arrived.
The man was dressed in a handmade black suit. It accentuated his tall and handsome figure. He had a pair of strong eyebrows and a handsome face just like it was carved by Heaven. He had a cold and elegant aura that matched this kind of upscale event. The moment he made his entrance, he turned into the focus of everyone present at hand.
But this was not all; there was still someone behind him.
It was a tiny little person.
Lu Qinwen was nine months old today. He wore a white shirt and had a ribbon on his collar. He had a pair of light blue jeans. The tiny guy’s features had lengthened. His skin was perfect like a small snowball. He was powdery pink — exquisite like a piece of painting.
He was already very good at walking steadily. It was probably because of his surroundings. He walked behind Daddy and was stylish and steady, just like a tiny miniature version of a dominating president that was walking down the catwalk.
“Wow…” The gazes of everyone present at hand were all attracted to this tiny figure. Everyone was speaking in hushed tones. “Is this Young Master Lu’s son? His genes are way too strong; he is so cute!”
At this moment, a few formally dressed foreigners welcomed him. They held out their hands heartily and shook his hand. “Mr Lu, long time no see. It’s nice to see you here.”
Lu Shaoming placed one of his hands in his pockets. He shook their hands, He had an British accent, and his voice was charming and mesmerizing as he said, “Nice to see you too.”
