The sweetest in the entertainment industry
Chapter 372 Blind Date
It was the weekend, and the team had chosen a popular, easy route. With the good weather, they expected a lot of people to come, which Gu Lanxi had anticipated.
She never expected that she would accidentally stumble into a matchmaking event hosted by a folk music ensemble and a symphony orchestra.
I didn't know beforehand, and when I arrived I found out that there were seven or eight familiar regulars from both sides, and each of them brought their younger relatives who were of marriageable age but couldn't find a partner no matter what.
Young people are easily embarrassed, and they are all high-quality young people from well-off families with good personal qualities. If we had known in advance that they were planning this, they probably would never have come.
This is something that everyone knows but no one will say out loud.
Gu Lanxi lived in the east of the city and arrived the latest. When she arrived at the meeting place, it was almost time to meet. A group of young people were chatting happily in small groups.
They treated today as accompanying their elders on a hike, a weekend pastime. With the added activity of cleaning the mountain, they found it both meaningful and fun. Even those who are usually quiet couldn't help but chat a bit more.
When Gu Lanxi arrived, the group of young people only glanced at her. Since they didn't recognize her, no one greeted her, and she went to meet her familiar friends.
Today, like most people, she was carrying a hiking backpack, wearing a warm, windproof, and eye-catching orange-red windbreaker, and hiking boots.
But she was different from everyone else.
She was wrapped up very tightly, not even a fingernail was showing.
She wore thin, warm, skin-friendly sky-blue gloves, a matching magic scarf to cover her face and head, and her only exposed eyes were covered by large sunglasses. Even so, she had pulled up the hood of her large windbreaker.
People who knew her recognized her just by her graceful walk. As she got closer, they smelled her familiar orange blossom perfume and immediately greeted her warmly.
Upon seeing her arrive, the group leader counted the number of people and waved the flag to signal everyone to set off.
The mountain path was not wide, allowing at most three people to walk side by side, so Gu Lanxi followed those she was close to.
As they walked, the line gradually lengthened, and people at the front and back kept their distance from each other.
While the younger generation wasn't around, an older woman pulled her aside and secretly asked her to help observe which of the young men who came today was more reliable.
"You have impeccable taste in men, unlike me, who always has bad judgment and keeps running into jerks. I only have one daughter, so you have to help me choose one!"
Gu Lanxi then realized that today's seemingly easy journey was actually not easy at all.
At only 22 years old, she already has to worry about her children's marriages alongside these older brothers and sisters, acting as someone who has been through it all.
It feels awkward no matter how I think about it, but I don't know how to refuse in a dignified way.
She has known this group of people for almost two years. They share similar interests and often go hiking and play music together, while also having meals and tea. Their relationship is really good.
Because she is never spoiled, generous and reliable, and speaks frankly and honestly, she gets along with everyone just like an ordinary person, so no one ever treats her specially.
In addition, since she was already married, the blind dates of a group of young men and women had nothing to do with her, so no one felt that this matter should be told to her in advance.
Although Gu Lanxi is young, she is very capable. Countless people ask her for favors throughout the year, but this is the first time she has encountered such a request!
"Sister Yingzi, I really don't have any experience in this area, so I'm afraid I can't be of any help."
Lu Nanting pursued her when they were dating, and he also relentlessly pursued her to get married. To be precise, it was Lu Nanting who chose her, not the other way around.
To say she's good at picking partners is pure nonsense.
"Experienced people have discerning eyes! There could be a line of suitors for you stretching all the way to France. You chose this one from so many people, so who can say you have bad taste?"
It's a fact that they are happy, and she can't tell anyone that she should tell her daughter to work harder and she will meet a great partner.
Think about it and whisper back to her:
"Life is a partnership, and it's best if she's happy with it. It's better to give them enough time and space to get to know each other. What good is it if you're happy with your choice but she doesn't like it?"
Before Yingzi could say anything more, Gu Lanxi immediately grabbed her arm, leaned closer, and whispered to her:
"As for my experience, the most important thing for a smooth married life is a good relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not good, no matter how outstanding the son is, they will not have a good life. Yingzi, you are busy today and have a lot of tasks, so you need to observe those boys' mothers more. You may not be good at choosing sons-in-law, but I don't believe you can't even see out a bad mother-in-law?"
The reason Yingzi got divorced was because she married a mama's boy and fought with her wicked mother-in-law for more than ten years. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and got divorced.
Hearing her words, he thought they made a lot of sense, patted her arm, and headed towards the target. Gu Lanxi breathed a sigh of relief, immediately quickened her pace, and focused on picking up trash.
She carried a snakeskin bag to hold unsellable trash such as packaging bags, cigarette butts, and tissues, as well as a large mesh bag to collect various bottles.
You can find mineral water bottles, beverage bottles, and aluminum cans every now and then.
The endless alpine meadows of Beiling Mountain, with towering peaks in the distance, are now covered in snow. Gu Lanxi is wearing sunglasses to prevent snow blindness.
She was wrapped up tightly, but a person's figure and temperament became even more conspicuous after their face was covered.
These young people don't usually climb mountains, and the mountain paths are rugged, so they stagger and sway as they walk, which is anything but graceful.
Gu Lanxi has strong core strength and a great sense of balance, and she walks like a nimble mountain goat.
She carried two bags fixed to tree branches in one hand and fire tongs in the other, moving through the mountains, her eyes and mind filled with nothing but the garbage on the ground, never looking around.
When they're quiet, they're all handsome men and beautiful women, but when they move, it's a completely different story.
She quickly attracted the attention of her peers.
Her parents both work at the same company, and the children from both sides have often gotten together since they were little. People from the symphony orchestra thought she was from the folk orchestra, while people from the folk orchestra thought she was from the symphony orchestra.
Young people from both sides came to talk to her. Although it wasn't like they were interrogating her, five people asked her about her hobbies in just two hours.
There are both men and women among the five people.
People naturally yearn for beautiful things, so when looking for a partner, the first priority is someone who is pleasing to the eye.
It has to be said that the reason why this group of people haven't found partners yet is somewhat related to their high standards.
Everyone was very polite and didn't say anything bad. They just wanted to be friends with her, but Gu Lanxi could tell that they were all very interested in her.
Gu Lanxi didn't want to ruin the blind date, so she took off the ring from her neck and put it on her hand during the break.
Although she put the gloves on and then slowly put them back on, most people still saw it.
Some sighed and said they would stop bothering her, while others thought she was doing this on purpose because she didn't fancy them.
Feeling unwilling to accept it, someone still spoke up: "Miss Gu, are you already married?"
Gu Lanxi was wrapped up tightly and didn't tell anyone her name; all people knew was that her surname was Gu.
Perhaps fearing that their elders would discover their feelings and pressure them to date and get married, everyone tacitly refrained from inquiring about her identity.
Gu Lanxi deliberately slowed down her movements, just so that someone would ask her.
Upon hearing this, he screwed on the water bottle cap and readily agreed.
"Miss Gu sounds very young. Why are you married so young? Was it arranged by your family?"
Gu Lanxi's expensive attire inevitably led people to speculate that she was a rich family's little princess who had been married off at a young age.
The outdoor trend has been very strong in recent years, otherwise there wouldn't be so many female celebrities in the entertainment industry trying to cultivate an image of loving the outdoors.
It's not unusual for rich girls to go hiking.
The two groups were mixed together, totaling more than forty people from all walks of life, and no one bothered to investigate who had brought Gu Lanxi.
Gu Lanxi glanced at the girl and smiled gently: "Of course it's because my husband is very, very good, and I want to marry him as soon as possible."
After saying that, having rested enough, he slung his bag over his shoulder, picked up a trash bag and a small pair of fire tongs, and continued walking forward.
In just half a day, I've collected more than twenty bottles and jars of all kinds.
She decided to put in a good effort and fill both bags! (End of Chapter)
