Chapter 192 Not Unromantic
After a brief reunion, we must face separation again.

Lu Nanting was a little listless, and while packing his luggage, he muttered a complaint under his breath:
"I knew I shouldn't have filled my schedule so full. I'm already earning enough. To be honest, there's no need to take on so many business events! With so many endorsements, I can't use a lot of products, and there are so many events to attend. What's worse, they're all in different places. I'm either on a plane or on my way to the airport all day long..."

That day, he went to the underground parking garage to ambush Gu Lanxi and pestered her to marry him. He really didn't expect that she would agree after just one time.

These jobs were all arranged based on his workload at the time. The contracts were signed long ago, and the schedule was set long ago. He couldn't go out when his marriage was exposed, which was unavoidable. If he breaks the contract now, he will lose credibility, and he may not have such good resources in the future.

It's not that he's being hypocritical, wanting his career but not his wife; it's just that if he dares to abandon his work, Gu Lanxi will definitely deal with him.

Gu Lanxi was sitting on the edge of the bed, intently checking her work email. She didn't even look up when she heard him say that.
"No wonder the Dragonfly Sisters hate me! If you get married and then drastically reduce your workload and disappear for a long time, wouldn't they blame me instead of you?"

The fans' logic is easy to understand.

If anything happens to your own child, it must be because someone is trying to harm him!
Lu Nanting understood this principle better than anyone else, and couldn't help but sigh:

"I was just feeling sorry for you and complained a bit, how could I dare to actually skip work and cause you to be cyberbullied?"

Lu Nanting felt a little wronged.

When has he ever done anything she didn't like?

"Yes, you need to protect me well and work hard. That's what it means to be responsible."

Lu Nanting remained silent.

"Please, is work the priority? My priority is not being able to part with you, is it?"

Gu Lanxi just smiled silently and didn't reply.

Lu Nanting felt heartbroken and turned his back to her.

I was holding my breath, but couldn't help complaining:
“I really think I shouldn’t have the surname Lu. I should have either the surname Yang or the surname Gu. And you shouldn’t have the surname Gu either. You should have the surname Huang.”

Gu Lanxi picked up a pillow and threw it at him: "Yang Bailao and Huang Shiren are one thing, but I'll exploit you as much as I want, so what? What's the logic behind your surname being Gu? Can't be husband and wife, do you want to be siblings?"

"A slave! Fine? I am your slave! I work all day long, and nobody cares about me!"

Seeing him angrily slam the box shut, Gu Lanxi was stunned for a moment, and then she also began to feel aggrieved:
"You've gone too far! Haven't I treated you well? Calling me a slave makes me sound like a heartless capitalist."

"What would happen if you said you couldn't bear to part with me?"

With Gu Lanxi's intelligence, it's impossible that she didn't understand what he meant, but she deliberately didn't respond, which made me very angry!

"I'm going back to Beijing in a couple of days, what's there to be sad about?"

"Don't you ever feel like you miss someone terribly if you don't see them for a day?"

"If that's your calculation, I'm almost a hundred years old now..."

"Forget it, stop talking, I can't listen to this."

The two of them had just said they would live to be a hundred years old together!
Whose heart are you hurt by saying such things now?
"Okay, I won't say anything. Hurry up and don't miss the flight."

Lu Nanting came to participate in the event and had to change his clothes, so he brought a suitcase. Gu Lanxi was only staying in the provincial capital for one night and was about to return to the film crew, so she only carried a backpack. Lu Nanting packed her luggage along with Gu Lanxi's.

Feeling resentful, Lu Nanting took advantage of her inattention and switched their matching jackets.

It was late September, and although the temperature in the south hadn't completely dropped, Gu Lanxi often filmed in the mountains, where it was quite cool in the mornings and evenings, so she liked to wear a thin sports jacket.

If you won't say you miss them, then just look at these things and think of them!
Gu Lanxi was unaware of his secret schemes, and while replying to emails, she tried to comfort him:

"Society is like a big machine, and everyone has their own responsibilities. Even ordinary people who do basic jobs and work hard to provide for their family's food, clothing, shelter, and transportation cannot be together all the time. You have to get used to it."

Both of them have unusual professions, and Gu Lanxi had thought about these things before getting married.

She felt okay, but Lu Nanting began to suffer from this separation.

This poses a significant challenge to their relationship.

As the more rational one, she had to offer words of comfort.

"Why not? Many couples who run small businesses can stay together all the time. Otherwise, what do you think a husband-and-wife shop is?"

"So what kind of shop do you want to open? Come on, you arrange it for me? How about a bathhouse? I'm really good at scrubbing people, I love scrubbing those 22-year-old fresh meat!"

Lu Nanting chuckled at her words: "Young men prefer being massaged by older men, because older men have more strength." "Come on, why don't you try again? Let's see if I'm strong enough?"

Lu Nanting immediately fell silent.

The whole house is being packed and tidied up; they look incredibly busy!

Seeing that he had calmed down, Gu Lanxi then told him her thoughts:
“We’ve only been married a short time and we’re often apart. You’re really into it right now, which is why you want to be with me all the time. But after a while, I’m afraid you’ll get annoyed just seeing me and wish you could be away on business for three or five years. I think things are fine as they are now, really.”

It's like a scarcity marketing strategy.

Let's meet again in a while and spend the night together.

Seeing each other every day, that's called paying public taxes.

"You are too pessimistic about relationships. My feelings have never changed over the years. You shouldn't make baseless assumptions about me like this."

Lu Nanting was being difficult because he couldn't feel any reluctance from her.

"I just don't like to say it. I thought you understood my feelings?"

Gu Lanxi stood up, put away her phone, picked up her backpack and slung it over her shoulder, regaining her calm and composed demeanor.

Lu Nanting stood up and hugged her tightly.

Gu Lanxi gently kissed his forehead and reminded him:

"Let's go, it's almost time."

"Yes, remember to think of me when I'm not around."

"Bro, don't be so sticky, it's not cool at all."

"I thought you understood me? Ineffective socializing is really tiring. Being a little aloof will save you a lot of trouble."

"Alright, sunny and cheerful boy, let's get going."

The two put on their shoes one after the other, opened the door, and the bodyguard was already waiting.

They took the box, walked around the two of them downstairs, and soon drove onto the inner ring elevated highway.

City C is only 40 minutes away from Kaiyuan County by high-speed rail, but it takes more than an hour to drive there by expressway, not to mention the old roads.

When Gu Lanxi came, she drove from the film crew to the Kaiyuan County high-speed rail station. Now, she will naturally take the high-speed rail back.

With the station crowded and worried about causing delays, Lu Nanting took Gu Lanxi to the high-speed rail station, kissed her forehead, put her down, closed the train door, and left.

He seemed to have no regrets whatsoever.

In fact, Gu Lanxi received his message before the car had even driven a hundred meters.

Gu Lanxi smiled helplessly, took out her ID card, and went through the ticket check to enter the station.

Once on the high-speed train, the air conditioning in the carriage was too strong. Gu Lanxi's seat was right in the wind, so she felt a bit cold. She unzipped her jacket and took it out.

She likes fruity perfumes, and Lu Nanting has a perfume endorsement; he usually uses a woody fragrance specially formulated for him by the brand.

As soon as the clothes are taken out, you don't even need to put them on; you can tell from the smell that they're not hers.

Lu Nanting's thought process is too easy to guess.

She didn't send a message to ask, and just put on the clothes.

The sleeves were too long; with a slight shake, the fingertips were completely hidden.

Smelling the faint scent of perfume, Gu Lanxi couldn't help but smile sweetly.

So cute!

I've been extremely anxious these past two days, and I can't concentrate at all, which has caused my dysentery to become very severe.

Sigh, tomorrow is Friday. I hope Er Mao Mao will fall in love with kindergarten soon.

Monday was indeed too early for my celebration.
