The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 231 Flirting
"Aunt Wang, Lili, I'll have to trouble you two with these. It might get much colder next week, so please bring me some slightly warmer clothes later, Aunt Wang."

It's just a red carpet walk, it doesn't require many people. The staff can split into two groups, one to follow her and the other to go home for vacation, and while she's away from the crew, they can also take some of her belongings back with them.

After finishing work and returning to the hotel, Gu Lanxi found her luggage already packed. She tidied up her personal belongings and began making arrangements.

Four boxes. She's taking one of them tonight, and the other three are full of summer clothes.

She's been here for over two months and has acquired quite a few things; given her personality, it's impossible for her to just throw them away.

However, she will be staying here for more than ten days. Large items such as the washing machine, pots and pans, and wire bed will be transported away by a large truck after filming wraps up, and brought over when she joins the next production.

"Okay, as for clothes, is there anything you want? Or can I take some pictures for you when I get back so you can choose?"

Gu Lanxi smiled slightly: "Brother Ting has already prepared them. They're all matched and hanging in the closet. You can just pick two sets and bring them over."

Despite her advanced age, Aunt Wang enjoys surfing the internet when she has nothing else to do.

She saw a post yesterday saying that every real sister-in-law in the entertainment industry has to show off.

That's absolutely true.

Even Gu Lanxi was no exception.

Tsk~
With just one sentence, Mr. Lu straightened his back.

She's still young and can't keep things to herself.

That smug look on his face makes me want to laugh!

I guess I've gotten older, and now I just love seeing young people all lovey-dovey!
Aunt Wang smiled and glanced at Lu Nanting, then generously praised him:
"Teacher Lu has good taste, so there's really no need to bother."

The staff around him were all laughing, and Lu Nanting felt a little embarrassed by the laughter.
"For everyday wear, softness and comfort are the primary criteria; whether it looks good is secondary."

"Yes, you really understand our Teacher Gu's preferences best."

In just a few words, Lu Nanting was overjoyed.

Only the stylist who was specifically responsible for Gu Lanxi's outfits couldn't quite manage a smile.

If this continues, she might lose her job.

"Let's go, don't miss our flight."

Seeing this, Gu Lanxi clapped her hands, signaling to set off.

The group got out of the car carrying their suitcases; the bodyguards had already prepared the car and were waiting there.

There were a lot of people tonight, three cars in total.

The young couple, as usual, brought a bodyguard and got into the middle car.

After getting on the bus, Lu Nanting noticed that Gu Lanxi was constantly texting on her phone, so he couldn't help but peek over to take a look.
"What are you doing? Why are you so focused?"

"The students are talking about the school anniversary celebration, and the class monitor is counting how many people will be able to attend the reunion."

The mention of a class reunion instantly energized Lu Nanting!

He hadn't forgotten that many of Gu Lanxi's classmates were his rivals in love!

Thinking to myself, I must put in the same effort I would when attending a fashion show abroad, and dress up nicely so that everyone would feel I had lost the moment I appeared, while I uttered some arrogant words:

"I don't know if you'll be busy then. If you're not busy, I'll go with you."

Gu Lanxi looked over with a conflicted expression, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

"What's wrong? Don't you want me to go?"

That's why some people are born with sensitive skin.
This person is exceptionally sensitive in certain aspects.

Upon seeing her expression, Lu Nanting's face fell.

Seeing that he had misunderstood, Gu Lanxi quickly explained, "I was just thinking that none of my classmates are married, and many of them are still single. If I bring you there, I might end up showering everyone with displays of affection, which would be a bit immoral..."

Her classmates in the gifted youth program are at most one or two years older than her, and they're only in their early twenties this year!

These days, apart from unconventional people like Lu Nanting, who would want to get married young?

Especially for highly educated elites like them, it's common for them to get married in their thirties or forties, and there are even many who remain single for life.

Everyone else will be single, but she'll be going with her husband...

"I have a feeling that if we really go, we'll be lucky to escape with our lives."

Lu Nanting scoffed and said disdainfully, "What can they do to me? I have a respectable job, a stable income, and a good family background. I'm practically flawless! Can they find fault with me?"

"Well, when our class gets together, we usually discuss some cutting-edge international research topics. I'm worried you might find it boring..."

Okay, to be honest, this might be a bit harsh. With Lu Nanting's level of knowledge, he probably won't even be able to understand the questions, let alone express his own opinions.

Although everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, and Lu Nanting is good at different things, it was a little awkward for him to sit there alone while everyone else was enthusiastically discussing a topic.

Gu Lanxi had no doubt that her classmates would do that.

You should know that at least half of the students in the class had pursued her. Strictly speaking, she was Lu Nanting's rival in love. It would be strange if she didn't make things difficult for him when she saw him.

Maybe someone flew back from abroad specifically to make things difficult for him.

Although she phrased it tactfully, Lu Nanting understood immediately.

Afterwards, I couldn't help but feel inferior.

"Don't you feel ashamed that I'm not very bright?"

Gu Lanxi scratched her head. Intelligence is something you're born with, and there's nothing you can do about it.

"They're just better at academics. Everyone has different strengths. If you ask them to sing a song, they'd be off-key even singing the national anthem! You can't compare yourself to them in that respect."

Lu Nanting didn't want to talk.

He didn't want Gu Lanxi to attend the class reunion alone, chatting and laughing with a group of rivals, but his pride got the better of him, and he was indeed a little afraid of being intellectually crushed by the group.

"We're from different circles, there's no need to force ourselves to fit in. We'll just make a brief appearance and then leave."

Gu Lanxi took his hand and gently shook it: "There will definitely be people waiting to take pictures of me at the airport later. Honey, can you give me a new hairstyle? So many people complimented my hairstyle yesterday."

Knowing she wanted to change the subject, and knowing it was true, there was no need to dwell on it. Lu Nanting sighed softly, "Then take out your comb. Did you bring a hair tie with it?"

"Bring it."

After saying that, he went to find the bag.

With both hands full, I casually shoved the phone into his hand.

Lu Nanting took it. The screen wasn't locked, and the WeChat chat interface wasn't closed. At a glance, her classmates were all spamming the chat, urging her to add her family members to the group.

Scrolling up, I found that Gu Lanxi had posted several emojis before.

Gu Lanxi held a rubber band in one hand and a comb in the other, put her bag aside, and saw him grinning from ear to ear.

"why are you laughing?"

"It's nothing, your classmate asked you to add me to the group chat."

"That's fine. Getting to know them beforehand will let them know you're a really, really good person."

"Don't you find it inconvenient?"

"Why is it inconvenient? I am open and honest, and I have nothing to hide from others."

Gu Lanxi shoved the comb into his hand, took the phone, and started operating it.

Lu Nanting couldn't help but laugh again: "Oh, I put the photo album back after I finished looking at it. It's on the top shelf, the cabinet door is closed, and I didn't forget to lock it."

Gu Lanxi stopped what she was doing, put down her phone, and started hitting him with a flurry of blows!

"That's a collectible! It's very expensive, you know? I'm just being low-key and not showing off my wealth!!"

"Haha, okay, Sister Low Profile, lean your head in a little closer, I'll braid your hair."

"Speak properly! Don't always talk like I'm picking on you!"

"Oh, you like braids? I'll braid a few more for you."

"I wasn't referring to that little braid!"

"Oh, I'm talking about this little braid."

Seeing that she had almost turned into a pufferfish in anger, Lu Nanting couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.

"You'd better say hello in the group chat! Otherwise everyone will think you're aloof."

"Yes, Queen!"

"No giving out random nicknames!"

"Okay baby!"

"Eh~~~"

The driver and bodyguard in the front seat both got goosebumps.

The two finally calmed down a bit.
