The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 527: A Picture at the Start
Lu Nanting is an honest and straightforward person. Although he is usually quiet and doesn't like to share his private life, and seems aloof, he is definitely one of the celebrities most likely to be spotted in the entertainment industry.

He likes to go out when he doesn't have any scheduled activities.

When their relationship was first exposed, Gu Lanxi was hesitant and reserved, while Lu Nanting, mindful of her feelings, kept a relatively low profile.

After a year of adjustment, and given that Gu Lanxi is not a timid person, her mindset has changed, and the two of them are going out more often now.

It's not the first or second time that fans have caught them dining out with relatives and friends, relaxing, shopping, or traveling alone.

Having decided to go to Ocean Park, the two didn't go to Zhang's Restaurant for a meal. Instead, they made a simple breakfast at home, ate, and then drove off.

Ocean Park is in Zhuhai, which is farther than the zoo; it takes about two hours to drive there.

"I'll buy the tickets first."

Lu Nanting, wearing sunglasses, started the car. Gu Lanxi checked all the documents in their bag again, carefully put them away, and then took out her phone.

They planned to travel from south to north and didn't intend to return to Guangzhou, so all their luggage was in the trunk.

There's a fireworks show tonight. Let's book a hotel, watch it, go home and sleep early, and then go out to sea early tomorrow morning.

Due to the influence of kidnappers and obsessive fans, Lu Nanting rarely goes on private trips without bodyguards unless it is an emergency.

But as long as he was with Gu Lanxi, he felt at ease whether he was going up the mountain or down to the sea.

The scene of Gu Lanxi single-handedly taking down several strong men back then left a deep impression on him. Whenever he was with her, he felt a sense of security from the bottom of his heart.

The two of them didn't bring any staff members with them this time.

Both of them really enjoyed this feeling of freedom and ease.

"Let's go to the island tomorrow! We didn't have enough time for the last magazine shoot. There's so much to do: sea fishing, beachcombing, jet skiing, diving... there are so many activities."

After buying the Ocean Park tickets, Gu Lanxi opened the page of a certain island club and patiently browsed through it.

"How about we travel abroad?"

Gu Lanxi prefers to travel within China.

For her, time is too precious, and she is unwilling to spend a lot of time on the road unless absolutely necessary.

But Lu Nanting didn't like being disturbed.

After all, he's the kind of person who's too lazy to talk to strangers. It's not like he's recording a TV show and being surrounded by a group of people. How could he possibly have fun?
"Don't worry, it's a weekday tomorrow, there shouldn't be too many tourists, I'll book the whole venue."

Things that can be solved with money shouldn't be a source of worry.

This is the meaning behind her hard work in earning money.

Gu Lanxi was someone who dared to take all her belongings and travel north alone before she was even fourteen, unlike Lu Nanting, who had a group of people taking care of him wherever he went since he was a child.

Seeing that she had made the arrangements, Lu Nanting agreed.

Then, I heard her making phone calls all the way. First, she contacted the yacht club and instructed the staff to prepare the yacht. Then she called the island and booked the entire place. Finally, she contacted a familiar security company and made proper arrangements.

Before that, I even checked the weather forecast to make sure the weather would be sunny tomorrow.

After she stopped, opened the food container, and slowly ate the sliced ​​watermelon with a fork, Lu Nanting remembered to ask about the yacht.

Is it possible to make a profit from the rent?

Lu Nanting was not a pleasure-seeking person. He did not buy his own private yacht and did not care much about such things. He only knew that when the two got married, the Gu family elders prepared three large luxury yachts as part of Gu Lanxi's dowry.

Gu has many relatives, so there are only so many large items he can send. He has to send furniture sets, so it's normal to receive three ships at once.

After Gu Lanxi got her hands on it, she immediately changed the paint job and handed it over to the yacht club for operation.

One ship is painted gold with bright red decorations and named "Full of Blessings," another is painted orange-red with gold trim and named "Good Luck Abounds," and there is also a particularly chic "White Pearl," which is very beautiful.

Each ship has its own target customer group.

Although the two have never claimed that these yachts belong to their family, and have not allowed the club to use them as a gimmick, if fans have a demand, "Full of Blessings" and "Good Luck" would be the top choices based on their paint schemes.

That's why their business is so good.

Gu Lanxi isn't afraid of being criticized for exploiting her fans. Because everything is at market price.

"Last year, the gross income was a little over nine million. After deducting maintenance and repair costs, the net income was less than 40%, which was better than nothing!"

Although Gu Lanxi invested a lot in Hesheng last year and even bought a house, Lu Nanting handed over his salary card and managed the business carefully, resulting in much higher returns than in previous years.

The reason these things are rented out is simply to cover expenses; no one expects to make much money from them.

It's only been a couple of years since we started. After a few years, our income has decreased, and we can't even cover our costs. We have to put money out of our pockets every year.

If it hadn't been a gift from an elder that held special meaning for her, she wouldn't have kept it at all.

Lu Nanting had only asked casually, and when he learned that they weren't losing money and were actually making a profit, he was quite impressed.

Many of my friends own yachts, but they all basically have to spend money on them.

The two drove to their destination. While the lights were red, Gu Lanxi would occasionally feed him a couple of pieces of melon. Even without saying a word, just being in that small space made him feel very happy.

They arrived at their destination smoothly, and the two, fully equipped, swiped their cards to enter the park. They then proceeded to explore the park in the order of their visit, and when it was almost time for the show, they headed towards the dolphin area.

Once inside the venue, the two found seats near the exit, and Lu Nanting leaned close to her ear and whispered something.

"The last time I saw a dolphin show was when I was ten years old, with my brother and the others, in Hong Kong."

"The performances now are different from those before; they are more focused on popular science."

Gu Lanxi followed his example and leaned over to speak softly.

"Well, if it were a circus performance, I wouldn't dare bring you. If we got photographed, I'd be furious."

Both of them were used to being cautious in this line of work.

“Last month I was filming abroad, and I was on a cruise ship for a while, right? I rode a jet ski and saw dolphins in the sea, but they were probably a different species and looked a bit smaller than the ones here.”

The two were talking quietly while the big screen was already interacting with the audience.

The staff are very experienced; they specifically target young couples for interaction.

Every time the big screen captures a couple kissing, the scene becomes lively.

Before the official performance began, this kind of interaction created an extremely lively atmosphere.

After entering the venue, the couple took off their sunglasses, but still kept their masks on, afraid of being recognized.

Hearing cheers, they looked up at the big screen and saw couples kissing sweetly. It felt like there were lots of pink bubbles around them, and they couldn't help but smile.

Before their smiles could even fade, the camera panned, and on the big screen, a large pink heart-shaped frame had already framed them.

Gu Lanxi was about to raise her hand to brush it off when she saw Lu Nanting turn around instantly, put his big hand around the back of her head, pull down her mask, and kiss her.

His movements were incredibly crisp, clean, and fluid.

Gu Lanxi was on the left side of the aisle when he suddenly pressed down on her. Afraid of falling, she quickly grabbed his clothes.

The audience burst into laughter!
Lu Nanting turned to the side, only revealing his profile, while Gu Lanxi was completely covered up by him. In addition, he pulled up his mask after the kiss, and everyone's attention was on the big screen, so no one recognized them on the spot.

A strange sense of thrill and excitement washed over her, and Gu Lanxi gave him a light punch, but it was completely powerless.

Lu Nanting grabbed her hand, took it out, and kissed it through her mask. Gu Lanxi reacted as if she had been bitten by a dog, quickly pulling her hand back. She then looked around like a thief, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one was looking at them.

"be honest!"

Gu Lanxi scolded him in a low voice, as if she were doing something wrong, and Lu Nanting couldn't help but laugh again!
The park wasn't very big; at their pace, even if they looked at everything once, they would have finished by 1 p.m.

After leaving Ocean Park, the two found their car. As usual, Lu Nanting drove while Gu Lanxi checked restaurant information.

As soon as the car started, Lu Nanting heard Gu Lanxi muttering curses under her breath.

"what happened?"

"There are rumors circulating online right now that you've cheated on your partner. It's like they start with a picture and then make up all the details."
