The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 156 Gift
"What are you laughing at? What airplane?"

"Just so you know, don't get angry!"

"What did you do?"

“I didn’t do anything. Just before dinner, my mom told me something.”

"what's up?"

“She said that since I bought a house for our marriage, she wouldn’t buy us a house anymore. Instead, she gave us other things and asked us to choose one of four options.”

"That's for you, so of course you can choose. Why would I be angry?"

It must be said that Lu Nanting is a man who is very good at handling family relationships. Gu Lanxi has never suffered any grievances because of this while she is with him.

The two went into the bathroom together. Before brushing their teeth, Lu Nanting filled the bathtub with water.

Gu Lanxi hadn't stayed in this house for more than a few days. She went to look for her pajamas but couldn't find them. Lu Nanting came out and found them, putting them on the shelf. He then squeezed toothpaste for her before asking her:

"What do you mean by choosing one of four?"

"Islands, private jets, French vineyards, and gold."

"Of course, choose ten thousand taels of gold! Why would you want an airplane? If you like this, have them all turned into small gold ingots! Besides, this is the best value retention, and it might even be the most expensive of the four."

“You have to consider whether it’s suitable to like something. If I have so much gold at home, I definitely don’t want to go out. Besides, if the security at home isn’t up to par, it’s more of a curse than a blessing for us. We’ll definitely have to store it somewhere else. I don’t know how much the storage fees will be every year.”

Moreover, even for the Lu family, it would be difficult to allocate so much liquid capital to acquire this amount of gold.

She didn't want to put her in-laws in a difficult position, nor did she want to create a rift between the three brothers.

Gu Lanxi brushed her teeth for a while, spat out the foam in her mouth, and then added, "Besides, once you see gold a lot, it's not all that great. It's not like we're in a chaotic world, there's no need to hoard so much."

The electric toothbrushes buzzed in a duet as Lu Nanting brushed his teeth, nodding in agreement with her statement.

"As for wineries, they are indeed very appealing, but my parents already have one. If I want to attend a wine tasting or meet someone, I can just go out with them. You know I don't like wine and know nothing about it, so what would I do with a winery?"

She's already married into the Lu family, yet she's using her best connections instead of taking the long way around. She's not stupid.

Besides, building connections doesn't necessarily require buying a winery.

Luxury car clubs, golf clubs, yacht clubs, horse racing, football...

Rich people have countless ways to get together and have fun.

With the Lu family guiding her, she could easily integrate into any social circle.

Even if she is initially looked down upon, with her abilities, as long as she is given a chance and a brief collaboration, she will surely develop further once she tastes success. There is absolutely no need to worry.

"If you want a stable profit on an island, you definitely have to rely on your family. It feels like my parents gave us a money tree so we could have an extra source of income. Personally, I think that since you've already taken what you're entitled to, and I don't want my brother and sister-in-law to have any objections, it's best if you don't get involved in any family business."

Lu Nanting nodded: "I will work hard to earn money and I will not let you live worse than your sisters-in-law."

Although his two older brothers work for the group, their personal wealth may not be as much as his.

Given his earning power these past two years, if he remains popular for another ten years, he can definitely ensure Gu Lanxi's lifelong financial security.

This is the confidence that only men who have achieved sufficient success in their professional field possess.

He was simply on a different track than his brothers; he never looked down on himself.

"Yes, I've always known that my husband isn't incompetent."

Lu Nanting leaned forward and gently touched her shoulder.

it is more than words.

I brushed my teeth carefully, put them down, and bent down to wash my face.

After he finished washing up, seeing that she was still brushing her teeth, Lu Nanting took off his clothes and posed in various ways, sometimes leaning against the sink, sometimes against the wall.

Gu Lanxi was lucky she didn't choke to death on the toothpaste foam; she simply turned her back and ignored him.

"Honey, how's my muscle gain going? Eight-pack abs, isn't that great? Didn't you like me strong? Look at this strength, it's so reassuring..."

When his wife is away from home, Lu Nanting is always exercising, and he's been photographed by paparazzi countless times.

I must say, the results are really good.

Seeing her turn around, Lu Nanting flexed his muscles as he moved closer to her:

"Biceps, look, doesn't it look like a cute groundhog? Come on, dance for your mistress."

Gu Lanxi brushed her teeth in a couple of strokes, then slapped his smooth waist: "You have so much energy, all you do is wash my hair! I've been so tired lately! If I die from exhaustion, you'll become a widower with eight-pack abs, you know that?"

Lu Nanting's expression changed instantly, clearly angered: "You're not allowed to say such things!"

Gu Lanxi immediately admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry, I'll be more careful in the future."

Lu Nanting stopped teasing her, found her usual shampoo and conditioner, grabbed a small stool, sat on the edge of the bathtub, and splashed water around, then called her over with a mischievous grin.

"My beauty~ come here~"

Gu Lanxi: "..."

This is pretty much what it means for a beautiful woman to be speechless.

Gu Lanxi had initially thought Lu Nanting's mind was already occupied by tadpoles, but after showering and drying her hair, he simply hugged her, smelled her fragrance, and said with delight, "Smells so good." Then he patted her head, stroked her, and coaxed her to sleep. Gu Lanxi was indeed exhausted and fell into a deep sleep in no time.

I slept soundly through the night, and then, just as dawn was breaking, I was awakened by a mushroom.

By the time they finished getting ready and came downstairs, it was already past eight o'clock.

The housekeepers at home are all busy, and the people transferred from the old house are also doing their jobs.

Everyone who sees her says "Happy Birthday" to her.

Gu Lanxi's face was flushed. She thanked him repeatedly before Lu Nanting led her to the basement.

There was a large pile of cardboard boxes in the spacious home theater. Gu Lanxi asked in surprise, "What are these?"

"Birthday present! Come and unpack it! I'll record an unboxing video for you."

Lu Nanting turned on the camera and was setting up the tripod and adjusting the angle when he saw the dangerous look in her eyes, and immediately raised his hands:

"Don't get angry, this was decided a long time ago, I absolutely do not have a secret stash of money!"

Gu Lanxi glared at him, walked up to the box, and then asked, "What's all this stuff?"

"The bag is a limited edition; it holds its value!"

Gu Lanxi always says that bags depreciate quickly, so apart from her usual classic styles, she is basically reluctant to buy any more.

Lu Nanting naturally had to consider this issue before making the purchase.

"All of them?"

"Yes!"

"so much?"

Gu Lanxi counted them and was quite surprised: "22?"

"Yes! One for each year! How meaningful!"

"That's not a matter of a slush fund!"

"That's why they say rich single men need to get married. Only with a wife to keep them in check can they make their fortune! Otherwise, I'll just spend it all."

Gu Lanxi was amused by him and didn't mind: "Maybe I can spend even more than you!"

"You're much more rational than me. You only buy useful things, unlike me! Sometimes I buy useless things. If I don't buy them, I feel restless. If I do buy them, they just sit there."

It must be said that this person has a very clear understanding of himself.

"Oh! You didn't have porridge for breakfast, you had honey, didn't you? Your mouth is so sweet!"

"Well, what else? I'm so young, and I've managed to get a wife all thanks to my silver tongue, I can talk a mile a minute!"

Gu Lanxi was amused by him, so she dragged a cushion over her shoulder and sat down on the carpet before starting to unwrap the gift.

Before buying the bags, Lu Nanting had already considered her preferences; basically, every bag was one she liked.

After opening all the boxes, Gu Lanxi suddenly remembered something and asked him sideways:
"You've given me so many bags, you're not jealous of mosquitoes, are you?"

Lu Nanting was tidying up the wrapping paper scattered on the floor when he heard this. He turned away from her intense gaze, coughed lightly, and said awkwardly:

"Where is it?"

"Speak properly! Don't grab me!"

"No way~"

"Oh dear! You're getting even more outrageous!"

Domestic violence is unacceptable!

Even as she lunged at him, Lu Nanting stubbornly refused to admit it.

Gu Lanxi was about to die laughing!

She grabbed him and kissed him twice before remembering that the camera was still on.

I quickly ran over and closed it, then directed him to take all the bags upstairs.

In the walk-in closet, most of the cabinets for storing bags were empty, which was perfect.

I was trying to put my child to sleep, but I ended up putting myself to sleep instead.

I hadn't changed my clothes, washed my face, or brushed my teeth, but I woke up feeling incredibly refreshed. I checked the time and it was only 3:50. Remembering that I hadn't written my morning update, I quickly got up and turned on my computer.

Just as we were getting into a passionate discussion, Juan Wang got up to get a drink of water. Seeing the study light on, he came in, grabbed my head, and stroked it a few times, like petting a cat. Then he drowsily left again.

So, what exactly was he trying to say?

33, sporting a messy hairstyle, yawned and held up a sign asking for monthly votes as he passed by.

Love me well today too, okay?
