The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 209 On the Generation of Rumors

The two rarely see each other, and when they finally have the chance to be in the same city, they naturally want to be together all the time.

Learning from their previous experience in Shanghai, they booked the same styling studio this time.

As a result, Gu Lanxi first taught Ma a foreign language, and then she looked through the family genealogy to find relatives, discovering the relationship between an aunt and her eldest nephew.

This arrangement now seems particularly inappropriate.

Gu Lanxi thought she had explained everything in detail, and even revealed her own utilitarian side in an attempt to appease him, but Lu Nanting still ignored her with a cold face.

She wasn't in a hurry. After finishing her meal, she rinsed her mouth, picked up her bag, and left.

Lu Nanting didn't speak or leave first; he just stood there waiting for her.

Seeing her approach, he turned and entered the elevator, pressing -1 directly.

Gu Lanxi just stood there at the door, watching the elevator doors close, but she wouldn't go in.

Just as the elevator doors were about to close, Lu Nanting pursed his lips, but still reached out and opened the doors.

Gu Lanxi didn't press the matter further and calmly entered the elevator.

The two inexplicably found themselves in a competitive state, one feeling extremely wronged, the other convinced he was right, and neither willing to back down.

Everyone else went to the styling studio, and Zhuang Xiaotong and Xiao Jiang came over early to help carry their bags.

Seeing the atmosphere between them, the two exchanged a glance, silently stepped back, and got into another car.

Once in the car, I immediately contacted my two agents to inform them that they seemed to have had a fight.

As an artist, the most important thing on the red carpet is to present yourself to the brand in the best possible light.

At times like these, you might trend on social media because of your outfit, an award, a speech, or interactions with other celebrities.

But you absolutely cannot let a couple's argument get you trending on social media with negative headlines!!
Their CP (couple) fans have now become quite influential, and even the most toxic solo stans have unknowingly established a faction called "rival fans."

If news of their argument and cold war were to break out at this critical moment, who would care what they were wearing or what they were carrying?
Regardless of how anxious Zhang Mingyuan and Mei Xue were upon receiving the news, Gu Lanxi got into the car and saw Lu Nanting looking down at his phone.

When the two of them go out, Lu Nanting will use his hand to shield her head and pull her up. After she sits down, he will gently fasten her seatbelt.

Today, however, I'm just sitting still.

There was a driver and bodyguards in the car, and two assistants who often worked together were in the car behind. In addition, there were several bodyguards clearing the way in front.

There were just too many people.

Gu Lanxi was a respectable person.

Even though she felt incredibly wronged, she remained calm and didn't say a single thing she shouldn't have.

However, once she got in the car, she didn't fasten her seatbelt, nor did she use her phone, much less reach out to hold his hand like before. She just sat there quietly, looking down at her own hands.

Seeing that the car had already started moving, Lu Nanting glanced at her several times, but seeing that she didn't move, he had no choice but to angrily fasten her seatbelt.

Gu Lanxi didn't refuse, treating him as just a tool.

The awkwardness between the two drew frequent glances from the bodyguard, who dared not say anything.

In this strange and silent atmosphere, the two arrived at the styling studio.

Paparazzi were waiting to take photos, but the two agents were experienced. They each brought out a group of people, each with a large black umbrella, and in the blink of an eye, they had set up an impenetrable passage.

The two didn't hesitate; after getting out of the car, they quickly entered the styling studio.

It seems they weren't completely out of their minds after all, and they still know what's important.

The two agents breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then, like cheetahs that hadn't eaten for three days and three nights, they finally caught their little lambs. They each grabbed one and went into the styling studio.

The lobby was packed with people from the styling studio, their own studios, and the brand.

Zhang Mingyuan and Mei Xue exchanged a glance and, under the pretext of separating men and women for basic care, directly separated the two.

Lu Nanting was tall and initially reluctant, but when he turned around, he saw Gu Lanxi striding ahead, already following Mei Xue for at least five meters.

Instantly, the anger that had just subsided surged up again!

You finally manage to book a styling studio appointment, isn't it all for the sake of spending more time together?

As it turned out, he wanted to stay together, but Gu Lanxi didn't care at all!

She does things without considering his feelings at all. Even though she knows he's angry, she can't bring herself to say a single kind word!

Seeing his expression, Zhang Mingyuan knew something was wrong and quickly led him inside:

"Try on the clothes quickly and see if you've gained weight in the last few days."

Lu Nanting carries the burden of endorsements; his clothing, shoes, jewelry, watches, and cosmetics all have to be from the brands he endorses. Sometimes, to cooperate with promotions, he even wears out-of-season clothes in advance. His styling is much more complicated than Gu Lanxi's; he needs to select clothes several days in advance and then communicate with the stylist about the style.

Unlike Gu Lanxi, she doesn't have any endorsements. If she's satisfied with the clothes her team borrows, she can wear them; if she's not, she can wear her own.

Lu Nanting had ordered several haute couture gowns for her before, and she brought one with her today, but it was just as a backup; it was a dress borrowed from the brand that she would wear on the red carpet.

She would only change her outfit if she won an award; if she was only nominated, she would wear the dress until the end.

To maintain a good appearance, the two have been trying to keep regular schedules and taking great care of their skin.

But before going on stage, a basic care routine is still necessary.

Every inch of skin, every strand of hair, must be sparkling.

While waiting for the face masks to be applied, the two agents gestured for the staff to go out first, and had the bodyguards guard the door. Then they started asking what was going on.

The atmosphere between the two was off today, and the stylists at the studio were all very perceptive; they certainly couldn't miss it.

To make their work easier, they would try to comfort their clients even if the agents weren't putting in much effort. Seeing this, they immediately withdrew.

Gu Lanxi merely glanced at Mei Xue indifferently, without saying anything.

They clearly distinguish between public and private matters.

The two of them are now completely focused on Gu Lanxi. No matter how anxious Mei Xue is, she can only say things like what kind of losses a negative trending topic might cause, and dare not say a word more.

The situation is different for Lu Nanting.

Zhang Mingyuan has been mentoring Lu Nanting since Lu Nanting's debut.

It could be said that she was even more attentive than Lu Tai, her biological mother.

No one knew about his relationship with Gu Lanxi before, but Zhang Mingyuan knew that he had such a white moonlight in his heart, which shows how much he loved her.

Now that Zhang Mingyuan had asked with great concern, and since it involved his own career, he couldn't very well remain silent.

He then recounted the whole story in detail.

"So, you bought her a foreign horse, forcing her to learn a German dialect, and you're still unhappy about it, jealous of a horse??"

"Now that you put it that way, the meaning has changed."

"Ha! Why don't you send him a domestically produced donkey! Preferably one from the outskirts of Beijing, then there won't be any communication barriers!"

"Brother, did you eat poison today?"

"How dare you say that? Look at the mess you've made! And the family tree? They think it's interesting, so that's fine! It won't affect your marriage, right? She's a pretty young woman who doesn't bother you to spend time with her or ask you to buy her this or that. She just stays at home, happily browsing her family tree online. It's so convenient and saves so much money. What a wonderful wife she is!"

Seeing Lu Nanting close his eyes and pretend to be dead, Zhang Mingyuan was so angry he almost laughed!
"If we really trace it back to its source, you're related to the gorillas in the zoo! How can you be so angry about that?"

“But she is of a higher generation than me. My mother said that I should call her aunt.”

"Tsk, so what if he's an aunt? Who doesn't know that Yang Guo and his aunt are a couple? He can just call her 'aunt' openly, what's wrong with that?"

Lu Nanting was finally amused by him and no longer looked like a pufferfish.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as he finished applying his face mask, we immediately told him to move to another spot.

Couples often quarrel but make up before they get out of bed. Since we live in the same city, it's best to talk things out.

Besides, for such a ridiculous reason?
Wouldn't a normal person do that?
Ugh, what a childish kid.

Buy sugarcane, cut off the knots and take them home to stew in soup or make sweet soup—it's delicious! I never knew that before; I learned it from the people of Guangdong.

Today is my sister's classmate's birthday, so I bought her a birthday gift, which cost me a lot. Tonight, I had a sudden inspiration and opened private banking accounts for them.

The agreement stipulated that the two of them would bear the costs of their social interactions themselves, and if they really wanted something but their mother thought it was not worth it, they could choose to buy it themselves.

The money for today's gifts was supposed to be deducted from my sister's account, but my brother unexpectedly offered to pay for one of the gifts himself.

I carefully wrote it down in my small notebook and even made an Excel spreadsheet specifically for them to prevent any mistakes.

The siblings smiled with satisfaction as they looked at their savings, which were now less than before.

I've already decided what I want for my birthday.

If they take turns inviting me to the movies, I'd probably agree, right?

Perhaps I could develop a lending model, take out loans from them, have them write IOUs, and then pay them interest, so they can understand the relevant knowledge.

However, they can't figure out the math yet, so I plan to do this when they're in elementary school.

Once they have enough savings, I can invite them to travel with me, at their own expense.
