Chapter 113 Naming

Xiao Chen swears that his brother only said one sentence!

However, there was a pause on the other end of the phone, and the first thing the voice said was, "What have you done now? Why are you so guilty?"

The car was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Just when everyone else thought Lu Nanting was going to make up a story, he recounted everything that had happened that day in detail.

This caused the other side to pause for even longer.

After at least seven or eight seconds, Gu Lanxi finally spoke: "Oh, I see. Then I can bring less luggage next week. What did you buy? Take a picture and show it to me when you get home, okay?"

"Okay, okay, of course!"

Lu Nanting felt as if he had been granted a pardon.

Gu Lanxi hung up the phone without saying anything more.

The space inside the carriage was cramped, and the way people spoke was completely different from how they would speak in an open space.

Gu Lanxi didn't want to embarrass him in front of his colleagues, so even though she was angry, she didn't lash out.

Lu Nanting was unaware of her keen insight. When he got home, he took pictures of all the things he had bought that day and sent them to her.

Gu Lanxi's internet connection was very poor, and the message was slow to receive, but she wasn't in a hurry to watch it. Instead, she logged onto Weibo, which was quite unusual for her.

Big data is truly amazing. Even though she was just a random, anonymous account, because every time she logged onto Weibo, she would either search for Lu Nanting or herself, Weibo seemed to understand her perfectly. As soon as she opened the app, the homepage would push "content you might be interested in" to her:
[I was scrolling through Weibo on the subway, smiling like a doting aunt, when suddenly I heard a "gurgle gurgle." I turned around and saw a girl exchanging secret codes with me! Speaking of which, we Tingxi CP fans are almost officially a force, but we still don't have a name. Maybe we should just call ourselves "Gulu" from now on.]

One of them has the surname Gu, and the other has the surname Lu. Thinking about it, it makes a lot of sense.

However, other fans in the comments section disagreed:
That's so inappropriate!

[Besides, it's not a good omen; it sounds like something rolling downhill. I only allow them to roll around in bed; I don't want them going downhill!]

[Yes, yes, from now on we can say "gurgle gurgle" when exchanging passwords. As for how we refer to ourselves in everyday life, we still need to think about that.]

We haven't decided on a name for the CP (couple) fan group yet! And now someone has raised a new question:

[I think we should change the CP name to "Lanting CP"; it sounds better. When we have offline gatherings, we can call it "Lanting Gathering." "Gathering" originally referred to a large group of birds gathering in a tree, but later came to mean a gathering or assembly. I've designed a support logo for our CP fans; please visit my homepage and give me your feedback.]

Unable to resist her curiosity, Gu Lanxi clicked on the person's profile.

It turned out that this was a rather famous designer.

The pinned image on the homepage is a picture.

The tree is depicted in a very freehand style, composed of variations of the letters "LNT" and "GLX". There are three birds on the branches, with the two birds at the bottom touching heads and the one at the top looking down.

And you know what? It's really fitting as a symbol of being a CP (couple) fan.

If we turn them into brooches, hair clips, bookmarks, or other merchandise, they'll definitely sell very well.

A bunch of CP fans were having a blast, and some were even asking online for permission to make new light sticks to bring to their next concert.

Gu Lanxi silently gave it a like, then logged out. Seeing a group of CP fans still arguing about the way they addressed each other, she couldn't help but reply:
[Tingxi is abbreviated as TX, why don't you just call her "Fairy Girl"?]

In her eyes, these people were so adorable, almost like celestial beings.

Before she could even log out, she was bombarded with dozens of insults.

But he was mistaken for a little black guy.

It was simply because she used the word "you".

Moreover, CP fans are not only girls, but also boys.

Even more absurdly, she was mistaken for an accomplice by the trolls, and soon some of them came to retweet her reply:

【"Fairy Girl"? That's hilarious! Why not just call her "Slippers"? Slippers are the most effective at killing cockroaches!】

Then things took a strange turn.

The CP fans and the two solo fans got into a fight, with the core idea being something like this: "So what if it's slippers? We're beating up disgusting cockroaches like you who can't stand the light of day and crawl around in the gutter all day long!"

After Gu Lanxi found a bunch of materials in the CP fan supertopic, everyone started calling themselves slipper girls, slipper boys, and little slippers.

This is unbelievable!

To be honest, she felt she had chosen a better name than slippers.

But she can't worry about that now.

Because she found Lu Nanting's super topic.

Compared to her fans' laid-back approach to idol worship, Lu Nanting's fans are bursting with creative desire and high enthusiasm, constantly producing new and fun things. They are so talented!
For example, there's a video that's been edited very well.

The beginning part should be on one of Lu Nanting's stages.

It's rare for her to wear a white T-shirt, and her makeup isn't heavy either.

His expression was very indifferent.

The caption reads: "Everyone, take note, I'm about to undergo a career change!"

"Gu Lanxi! I only accept Gu Lanxi!" With a shout, Lu Nanting turned around and smiled back.

They were dressed very similarly, but their expressions were like those of two different people.

[Family members, think about it carefully, really think about it, our brother's transformation is as fast as turning around, isn't it?]

The video was so well edited that Gu Lanxi struggled to watch it for two minutes before finally watching it in its entirety.

After reading the article, I opened the comments section and read through the messages from these lovely fans with a smile:

[Absolutely amazing! I can only say absolutely amazing!]

My little Xibao is practically a magician! Haha!

【There's nothing I can do, my brother is so worthless, he gets excited just from hearing his name. I can't even imagine what it will be like to see him on stage with me next week...】

The Weibo Movie Night will be held next week, and intensive promotion has already begun.

Gu Lanxi looked at it for a while, and seeing that almost an hour had passed, she finally opened WeChat.

Sure enough, they had already written countless short essays with great anxiety.

Sometimes, swearing doesn't solve anything.

Gu Lanxi read through everything and saw that the things he bought for her were very thoughtful and practical. He didn't blindly pursue big brands and spend money recklessly. He even took out the limited edition super member card when paying the bill, which not only gave her an 8.8% discount, but also used two coupons for 800 yuan off purchases over 5,000 yuan. Gu Lanxi's anger inexplicably dissipated.

In fact, Lu Nanting is a very good at pretending.

He has two older brothers. When he was born, his eldest brother had just started college and his second brother had just started elementary school. Both of them were at a time when their parents needed to focus on their studies. He, on the other hand, had six nannies taking turns to take care of him, so his parents didn't pay much attention to him.

Especially since Mrs. Lu had given birth to two sons, both of whom were raised to be very outstanding, she actually wanted a daughter even more when it came to her third child.

Even before he was born, he went and bought a huge pink diamond to prepare a dowry for his daughter.

So, although his family doted on him, he didn't grow up enjoying being the only one pampered.

Sometimes Gu Lanxi even wondered if the reason he cared so much about her was because her affection was always reserved for him alone.

Gu Lanxi has no best friends or close friends. Even the relatives she often visits are not direct blood relatives. Even her two closest cousins ​​are not to the point of being willing to do anything for her.

She appears to be gentle and polite to everyone, but in reality, she holds back with everyone.

From childhood to adulthood, the only person I've ever loved wholeheartedly, given my all to, included in my inner circle, and asked for nothing in return is Lu Nanting.

He is not a simple-minded person.

He could hide everything in his heart, but he couldn't hide his feelings for her.

It was like this before, and it is like this now.

When they first started dating, it was a secret relationship. But after only a few days, Gu Lanxi discovered that the entire Lu family knew about it.

Fans calling him Lu the Big Leaky Spoon, or even Lu the Big Circle, is absolutely right.

Forcing him to keep his marriage a secret is actually quite unreasonable, even pretentious.

Even though there was a huge uproar online, he never said that he had really tried his best.

Netizens have sharp eyes and can always find sweet moments in the details, which probably makes him feel helpless.

Lu Nanting reflected on his actions, regretting that he hadn't done a good job of prevention. He hadn't received a reply and was debating whether to call when he received a new voice message:
"I like that string of pearls. Can you help me decide which dress would go better with it next week?"

After saying that, she sent several photos, which were actually the red carpet gowns that her company had chosen for her.

Gu Lanxi doesn't have any endorsements, so she can wear whatever she wants on the red carpet. She doesn't need to consider brands; she only needs to consider whether she likes it or whether it matches her style. Lu Nanting then seriously gave her advice.

After they finished discussing and talking about a bunch of other things, Gu Lanxi sighed and asked him, "When will your little security guard for love finally be on duty?"

Even she felt a little uncomfortable after seeing today's trending topics.

Not taking things to heart simply means having a good temper, good manners, and being insightful; it doesn't mean you never get angry.

Why do two people have to tell the whole world about their relationship?
After a long while, Lu Nanting sent over an emoji that made a vow and cried for forgiveness.

It's all his fault for not being meticulous enough.

Gu Lanxi responded with a pat on the head and a little yellow face, and that was the end of it.

There's no point in dwelling on what's already happened; it only hurts feelings.

Prevention is the most important thing.

One day, the little slippers did some research and discovered that the real person had once called them celestial beings, but they had scolded that person and then started calling themselves little slippers...

*Pfft pfft pfft* I'll write this down in my notes. I'll definitely fill this hole later.

Were there any other plot holes to fill? I can't remember. If there are any similar interesting ones, I'll definitely write them down.

Time is a cycle, and completing the cycle brings happiness.
