453: Chapter 453 [Acting] 453: Chapter 453 [Acting] Lu Wanqing was still a bit terrified of running into students or faculty from Jiangnan University.
If they were spotted, she was afraid the news the next day would probably read: “Female Chancellor of Jiangnan University and a Mystery Man Check Into a Hotel”…
and by then, it would stir up a storm throughout the city.
The hotel was a four-star establishment, quite high-standard.
The suite that Ye Chenfeng booked was particularly lavish with Australian carpets, French sycamore decors, and more, exuding an aristocratic vibe.
“Hurry up and take a bath, and remember to wrap up in a bath towel afterward!” Lu Wanqing urged as soon as they entered the room.
However, Ye Chenfeng was dumbfounded and stared at Lu Wanqing in disbelief.
“What are you looking at?
Hurry up, we’re running out of time!” Lu Wanqing urged him anxiously.
Ye Chenfeng then slowly regained his composure and couldn’t help but say, “Comrade Lu Wanqing, are you tricking me?”
“Tricking you about what?” Lu Wanqing asked, puzzled.
“Didn’t we agree to pretend?
Are you saying you want to go for real?
I’m still just a child!” Ye Chenfeng clutched his chest, pretending to be scared.
“Pff!”
Lu Wanqing almost spat blood, how could Ye Chenfeng be so shameless?
“Dammit, we’re running out of time!” Lu Wanqing urged.
“Alright, alright, I’ll stop teasing you!”
Ye Chenfeng turned and headed to the bathroom, and when he came out again, his waist was wrapped with a bath towel, leaving his upper body completely exposed to the air.
When Lu Wanqing’s gaze fell upon Ye Chenfeng’s robust muscles and perfect figure, her heart started pounding and she blushed furiously.
Immediately after, Lu Wanqing quickly averted her eyes and rushed into the bathroom, fleeing in embarrassment.
“Little Qingqing, how about we take a bath together, Ming and Qing styles?”
“No!”
“Do you need someone to scrub your back, free of charge?”
“No!”
…
“Hurry up and get ready, someone is coming soon!” Lu Wanqing handed the previously prepared script to Ye Chenfeng and explained the whole situation to him.
Ye Chenfeng read through the notebook and then shook his head, “No, this won’t work.
It’s too fake.
What do you mean by ‘when someone comes in, the two embrace each other’?
Your mom, with her experience, will see right through it.
We’ve been in the hotel this long just to hug each other?”
“This won’t work either.
What’s this about ‘pretending to kiss’?
I’m telling you, even a real one might not pass muster, let alone a fake one!”
“This, sleeping together under the covers?
You think this is a TV drama?
Who would believe that nowadays?”
…
As Ye Chenfeng rejected each suggestion, Lu Wanqing couldn’t help feeling anxious, “Then what do you suggest we do?”
“Make it a bit more daring, and it’s best to get into the role!” Ye Chenfeng said with a mysterious smile.
“What do you mean?” Lu Wanqing asked, confused.
“Just follow my lead!”
Before long, Lu Wanqing’s mother arrived at the hotel with Zheng Yuanjin.
Of course, these details were intentionally revealed by Lu Wanqing, all for the sake of performing a play for them to see.
Lu Wanqing’s parents were listening in from outside the room, along with Zheng Yuanjin.
Ye Chenfeng and Lu Wanqing had to make it believable to deceive them.
“Why not try and see?
Shall we pretend for real?” Ye Chenfeng presented two options.
Lu Wanqing bit her lip and hesitated for a while before finally nodding, but she insisted that Ye Chenfeng hit the bed through the covers.
At that moment, Ye Chenfeng knew there were eavesdroppers outside, and luckily Lu Wanqing had gotten into character under Ye Chenfeng’s direction, so they performed a convincing play.
