Chapter 324 Nothing Strange
"puff--"

After leaving the stadium and getting into the car to the airport, Lu Nanting first grabbed a bottle of water, opened it, and took out his phone to check the contents while drinking.

Even though he had been in this industry for quite a while and considered himself to have seen all sorts of tricks, Lu Nanting still couldn't handle it. He couldn't hold back and sprayed a mouthful of water all over Zhang Mingyuan's face!
"I know you don't want to go to work, but please bear with it."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhang Mingyuan deliberately turned around and leaned out from between the seats, intending to talk to him about the work arrangements for the next few days. Unexpectedly, the timing was bad, and he was sprayed with water in his face.

He slowly pulled out a tissue, silently wiped the water off his face, and Zhang Mingyuan's tone was full of resentment!
"I'm so sorry, it's really..."

Lu Nanting took out a wet wipe and was about to help him wash his face, but Zhang Mingyuan waved his hand and stepped back.

What triggered this time?

Lu Nanting then handed him his phone to look at.

Zhang Mingyuan silently finished reading it, then looked at him with a strange expression: "Didn't you notice a problem?"

"what is the problem?"

Lu Nanting took out some tissues and was wiping the water off the back of the chair when he asked the question casually.

"Whether you're around or not, she lives a vibrant and fulfilling life, while you, whenever you're not with her, are always in a daze, never even cracking a smile."

Good guy!
This retaliation came far too quickly!

Lu Nanting stared at him for a long time, then suddenly asked, "I've always been like this! Haven't you ever reflected on this?"

He spends most of his time with staff, rarely alone, and doesn't spend much time with Gu Lanxi.

Being with my wife makes me want to laugh all the time; I'm happy to the point of bursting with joy.

When he's with them, he always has a cold face. Is that his fault?
Zhang Mingyuan was shocked that he could say such shameless things, and his eyes widened in disbelief!
"Then I'll hire a comedy troupe tomorrow and have them tell you jokes every day?"

In the entertainment industry, the only person Lu Nanting has ever encountered besides Ni Bingyan who can be considered a master of sarcasm is Zhang Mingyuan.

Lu Nanting remained silent.

Xiao Jiang burst out laughing: "Hahaha! Brother Yuan, why did you provoke him? You're not a big boss, do you expect him to give way to you?"

Zhang Mingyuan wanted to say something, but he couldn't organize his thoughts properly.

Seeing his discomfiture, Lu Nanting raised an eyebrow, a half-smile on his face: "I'll tell her later that there are treacherous officials sowing discord and can't stand to see us get along."

Zhang Mingyuan wouldn't be intimidated by him.

"Then you're going to lose me."

Given Gu Lanxi's personality, if anyone were to cause trouble between her and Lu Nanting, she would definitely deal with them without hesitation.

"Yes, I know that's not what you meant, so I won't tell her."

After finishing his water, Lu Nanting screwed the cap back on, rested his right elbow on his knee, propped his chin on his hand, looked at the neon lights outside the car, and sighed softly. It was unclear whether he was confiding in the night wind or earnestly explaining something:

"There's no way around it, I'm genuinely happy when I see her, and when I'm happy, I naturally want to laugh."

As for why you don't usually smile?

I guess it just becomes a habit!

From childhood to adulthood, there have always been people surrounding him, trying their best to please him. Whenever he gives him a kind look, people will go on and on, trying to take advantage of him.

Over time, in order to have some peace and quiet, he developed this aloof and unapproachable demeanor.

As for why he likes Gu Lanxi so much?
Born into a wealthy family with a harmonious background, he grew up with neither lack of love nor money. Gu Lanxi, who was the apple of his eye and had such a unique personality, was like a different kind of firework to him.

It's perfectly normal for him to have different feelings for Gu Lanxi.
Zhang Mingyuan felt that Gu Lanxi had a great influence on him, but that was also because he was willing to do so!
He doesn't treat every woman like that.

As for Gu Lanxi being able to live well no matter where she is, that's even more normal!

Some people are born delicate flowers that need to be carefully nurtured in a greenhouse to bloom, but Gu Lanxi's character is as tenacious as that of wild grass.

That's fine.

If Gu Lanxi loses herself for him, the first thing she will do when she comes to her senses is to decisively dump him.

Therefore, Lu Nanting was extremely satisfied with his current situation.

I really can't let myself get dumped a second time!!
"Sister Mei is already working through the night to collect evidence."

Gu Lanxi has always been a ruthless person.

She never responds to rumors or scandals related to her. She simply ignores ordinary rumors and doesn't send lawyer's letters for those that cross her bottom line. Instead, she collects evidence and goes through the proper legal process.

When it comes to defamation, as long as the evidence is complete, you'll almost always win a lawsuit.

"Hmm. Let's not even talk about me going back tonight. Staying up all night waiting is such a hassle." If I go back now, I won't get home until at least 3 a.m.

The phone rang just as he finished speaking.

Gu Lanxi called: "I'll be staying with my parents for a while, so don't go home. Just come here after you get off the plane. I've already asked Aunt Chen to pack our clothes. You don't need to bring anything. Oh, by the way, I have to get up early tomorrow to go to work with my dad. I'm going to sleep now, so I won't wait for you. The door isn't locked, so if you come home late, just open the door yourself."

The Lu family's old house is very large, and all three sons have their own large apartments.

It not only has a small study, but also a large walk-in closet and a large bedroom, as well as a bathroom with separate wet and dry areas.

The eldest and second eldest brothers' families only come back to stay for a few days occasionally. On weekdays, there are more servants than masters in the house, so they don't feel crowded when they come back to stay for a long time.

She did this mainly for the convenience of commuting.

The old house is only a ten-minute walk from Lu's Industrial Park, but it takes more than forty minutes to get there from Oriental No. 1.

Moving here is totally worth it to get an extra half hour of sleep in the morning.

Moreover, her mother-in-law treats her well, there are no conflicts between them, and she has someone to take care of everything while she lives here, making her more comfortable than at home.

Upon hearing the sound of her brushing her teeth, Lu Nanting guessed that she was washing up and had no choice but to agree.

Earlier that morning, Gu Lanxi had already told him about going to the head office to learn.

According to her father, he wanted to lend her his most capable assistant for a month to personally mentor her.

That special assistant is being groomed for management; in two years he'll be sent to a branch office as general manager, and once he achieves results, he'll be promoted back to head office. He's Lu Weidong's staunch confidant.

Gu Lanxi would never do that.

Staying away from the center of power for a month without any official status or position, and then going off to mentor the boss's youngest daughter-in-law, is bad for Lu Weidong's reputation and also detrimental to the special assistant's career development.

So Gu Lanxi directly suggested going to the head office to observe and learn.

Lu Weidong thought this was a good idea, and had someone set up a table for her in the president's office overnight so she could handle her own affairs there.

If she goes to work for someone else's company, everyone in that company will teach her without reservation.

This kind of treatment is practically like being one of our own.

Anyone who is an outsider, not even a relative, is not allowed.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Lanxi quickly finished her skincare routine and then lay down on the bed to sleep soundly.

Lu Nanting hung up the phone, and everyone in the car was trying not to laugh.

Zhang Mingyuan couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing!

"Hmm, you absolutely can't tell her! Otherwise, she'll stay up all night waiting for you!"

Lu Nanting's face immediately turned as black as coal.

I wanted to say that Gu Lanxi was just being a bit rational and was still very good to him, but saying it out loud felt like I was trying too hard to save face.

Well, how could anyone else understand how good his wife really is?
He's busy with work and rarely home, so his wife goes back to visit his parents whenever she has free time. She gets along well with his nieces and nephews, has a good relationship with his two sisters-in-law, and will obediently accompany his parents to visit relatives. What a wonderful wife!

These blind, vulgar people! They only care about superficial things!
Just speechless.

The stubborn Lu Dingliu continues to provide laughs for everyone.

I'm planning to link "The Great Sobering Up" with this book. What do you think?

I've almost forgotten what Ni Bingyan's character was like.

I remember she was very curly, loved fishing, loved doing practice problems, and was a foreign language genius...

If I were to actually write this, I'd need to catch up on my studies when I have some free time.

They should have a lot to talk about when they meet.

After all, they all have a husband who's obsessed with romance, and they all have a mother-in-law to brag about.

Readers who haven't read the book won't be affected; just treat them as strangers, and I'll explain the characters' backgrounds.

If it's a collaboration, what age range would be most appropriate?
I've never done anything like this before, it's kind of exciting.

My next book probably won't be about the entertainment industry. If I want to create a crossover, this book might be the only one with that opportunity in the next few years.

However, there are also downsides to collaborations. The main character appears as a supporting character, which feels a bit off.

I'm still undecided. If you'd like to see it, you can tell me your reasons so I can consider them.
