Chapter 25 - Preparations

The next day, Zhang Yuqi woke up and found the other side of the bed empty again. Zhang Yuqi was not a late riser. She woke up at 6:30 everyday. But in the past days, every time she woke up, Lu Zitian would already be awake. He left for his office at 8 am sharp and returned at 6 pm.

Everything he did was right on time.

Whenever Lu Zitian returned home, he would sit together with Zhang Yuqi and ask her random questions about her work and her life. The atmosphere between them was always very peaceful and harmonious. If someone looked at them, they would not believe that they had been married for three days only!

Zhang Yuqi had a habit of exercising every morning for at least half an hour. She changed into her sports gear and went to the garden and started stretching. The warm morning sun and light breeze felt refreshing and Zhang Yuqi felt her mind and body relax completely. Out of the corner of her eyes, she noticed a figure, running towards her. When she looked carefully she realised it was Lu Zitian.

As he came closer, she realised that Lu Zitian was truly god-like in terms of everything, his face, his body, his aura and of course his intelligence. No wonder he was crowned as the most desirable man in the whole country. He had everything and his way of handling his business proved that his reputation was definitely not all-talk.

His sweaty figure stopped right in front of her. Drops of sweat rolled down his perfect face and his adamsapple, down into the white t-shirt he wore. His muscular chest heaving up and down from the run.

Looking down at Zhang Yuqi, who's height just reached his shoulders, he said, "Woke up? Good morning!"

"mmmhhmm", Zhang Yuqi nodded dazedly.

Lu Zitian thought that she was dazed because she was sleepy, but that was not the case at all. Zhang Yuqi was just thinking of him.

A gentle expression on his face, he lightly patted her head.

"Come down for breakfast later."

Saying that, Lu Zitian disappeared towards the house, jogging all the way.

Zhang Yuqi absentmindedly touched her head where Lu Zitian had patted just now. Unexpectedly, a person like him was capable of doing such endearing actions, as if they were lovers for a long time.

Shaking such thoughts out of her head, she started to wonder about what was going on recently and what she had to do. Today she also had to go for the opening ceremony of the 'Walking to You' series. This was the first big event and also the best chance for her to turn the current situation to something that is favourable for her.

She had already prepared everything she needed to attend the event. From her dress, shoes, accessories, to her makeup, she had to do it on her own. To an artist of her level, the company would provide the newbie makeup artists. Their skills were not good enough. So, Zhang Yuqi decided to do her own makeup.

She had a long day ahead.

After finishing her exercise, she had breakfast and told Lu Zitian of her schedule and the fact that she won't be back until that night.

Then she went back to her old residence to get ready. She had prepared for this day the day she got the project. She took out the outfit she had prepared and put it on. It fit her perfectly highlighting her narrow waist and long legs. The dress was off-shoulder. The top half black, and bottom half was an umbrella cut skirt, white with black roses all over. This dress was from a quite affordable but unknown brand. She liked it because the designs of this brand were very suited to her personality and style. She paired the dress with black heels and earrings.

Then taking out her make up kit, she first created large eye bags under her eyes and then covered it up partially using a low coverage foundation. She put a nude lipstick on her lips. If someone saw her this way, they would definitely feel as if she was trying to hide all the suffering she had gone through. This was also a plan that she had made.

Looking at herself one last time in the mirror, she headed to the location of the event.
