Chapter 3

Lu Jinnian glared at Qiao Anhao with a murderous expression . Clenching his teeth, he spat out his last sentence before ruthlessly removing his hands from her neck . Without sparing her another glance, he left .

Play till your death… Qiao Anhao’s long lashes trembled slightly as her face paled . She remained glued to the wall until a thundering door slam resounded . Only then did she swallow the saliva that had formed behind her tightly clasped lips . Exhausted, she collapsed to the ground, tears clouding her vision .

Why would she climb into his bed just to act in ‘To the End of Time’ ?

She just wanted to use it as an excuse to conceal her real feelings .

Feelings only kept to herself . Her love for him .

She loved him . She was secretly in love with him for the past thirteen years, never daring or allowing herself to let him know .

She thought that if she just concealed her feelings, everything would turn out alright . But never would she have known that one night, slightly intoxicated, she would expose her deepest secret . She had clearly overestimated her own abilities .

Even though Qiao Anhao had infuriated Lu Jinnian by climbing into his bed, she still received a phone call from ‘To the End of Time’ crew three days later, informing her to go for an audition .

It wasn’t made known to her whether the audition was the director’s decision or an order from Lu Jinnian .

Her screen time for the drama was neither too little nor too much . It wasn’t a major role but it wasn’t a filler either . But it was definitely a thousand times better than her previous role .

Since the role was obtained through undignified means, the audition was just a formality . Directly after it, she signed the contract .

Three days later, Qiao Anhao officially joined the crew, just a day after Lu Qian Nian had flown off to Rome to film a new movie .

After a wild night together, the married couple of two months had gone separate ways .

Three months later . . .

After three months of filming ‘To the End of Time’, the television drama successfully ended off in a rented mansion worth thirty million dollars . The whole crew erupted in joy, the happiest being the director . He picked up his phone and generously booked the top floor dining hall of Jing Cheng hotel, treating the whole crew to a celebratory meal .

‘To the End of Time’ ended around 3 pm in the afternoon . The technical crew needed to pack up their equipment and the actors needed to remove their makeup and change, hence the celebratory meal was set at night, around 8 pm .

Lu Jinnian had been in Rome all that time due to the filming of his new movie . Using the limited two day break in-between his tight schedule, he returned to the country to settle sudden issues arisen in the company .

Due to the time constraint, Lu Jinnian barely had any time to rest from the long flight . Right after landing in Bei Jing international airport, he went straight to the company .

Without time wasted, the meeting started the minute he entered . The board had already gathered and was waiting for his arrival .

The meeting lasted from 3 pm in the afternoon all the way till 6 pm at night . Lu Jinnian’s assistant followed him into his office .

“Mr . Lu, I’ve already booked the 12 am flight to Rome . After touchdown, you can rest up to fifteen hours before your next scene . “
