The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 543 The Southward Wind

Gu Lanxi always exudes a unique sense of ease.

It's not the kind of confidence that comes from having powerful backers, but rather a casual confidence.

Before she married Lu Nanting, she often went out alone.

Doing business, traveling, having fun, following celebrities...

Do everything that interests you.

Even though she's already a household name, she's not afraid.

After marrying Lu Nanting, there was a period when toxic fans and stalkers were everywhere, and she stopped going to many events. However, she did not compromise herself and continued to do what she was supposed to do during her vacations.

More than a year has passed, and everyone has probably accepted their fate; the situation has improved considerably.

Overall, more people are sending them their blessings.

To be honest, although she had various concerns about this trip to experience life, she wasn't too worried.

The four-person booths, two facing each other, with a fixed small table in the middle, have seen five or six different groups of passengers come and go over the past thirty-odd hours.

Nowadays, high-speed trains are incredibly fast, and most people who buy tickets for the old-fashioned green trains are short-distance travelers who get off at just a few stops. People like Gu Lanxi, who ride from the starting point to the destination, are very rare.

The next day, around 5 p.m., Gu Lanxi arrived at Baiyun Station without incident. As she walked out of the station with her luggage, it was windy in Guangzhou.

This season is always hot and humid, and rain can come at any time.

It's really rare to see a day with such a strong wind.

The long-sleeved shirt she wore when she left was no longer suitable. Gu Lanxi was covered in sweat when she got off the train, and the sweat was sticking to her body and making her feel very uncomfortable. But when the wind blew, she felt much more relaxed.

Having skillfully found the subway station, Gu Lanxi arrived at an urban village a little over an hour later.

She didn't dare to go out and rent a place, but luckily this was Guangzhou.

The fourth wife's second aunt, Wei Jinfang, kept her mouth shut and had always been close to her. Having received a favor, she specially reserved a one-bedroom apartment for her. Now, wearing a cotton floral dress and flip-flops, she came over to deliver the keys to her.

Her family owns more than a dozen buildings in this area. Gu Lanxi didn't mention rent or anything like that. When she saw Gu Lanxi get out of the car, carrying a takeout box, she craned her neck to look at it:

"What delicious food did Auntie bring me?"

When the two met, they couldn't help but laugh when they saw each other's attire.

"It's too late today, and you don't have time to cook. I know you can't eat greasy food, so I made you some poached chicken at home and also brought some blanched bok choy. If you want something else, you can make it yourself later."

Knowing that she had returned to prepare for her new film, Wei Jinfang admired her spirit of not forgetting to strive for her career even after marrying a good man, and fully supported her.

If I say I won't let the housekeeper come to cook and clean, I really don't plan to come back.

Gu Lanxi, carrying a snakeskin bag, followed Wei Jinfang as they walked into the narrow, dark passage.

Seeing that no one was around, he whispered to her, "Don't worry about me this month, and don't tell anyone that I'm back. I'll stay here for the next few months, and I'll go home when I have time."

Wei Jinfang agreed and then told her, "I've already made arrangements with the garment factory. Once you're settled in tomorrow, go there to report for duty. Your aunt will pick you up when you arrive."

These days, everything requires real-name registration. Legitimate factories require social security contributions, and you can't hide it when you go to unfamiliar places.

Fortunately, the Gu family was large and wealthy, and some of their relatives and friends owned factories. They kept their mouths shut and treated her well, so they quickly got things done for her.

"I can't do anything. If my aunt thinks I'm stupid, you have to put in a good word for me."

Wei Jinfang led her through a maze of twists and turns to the eighth floor.

There was no elevator in the building, and she was panting as she climbed. Hearing this, she couldn't help but laugh: "If you're stupid, then there's no one smart in our whole family. Okay, just think of it as a trip. It's our own factory, what's there to be afraid of? If you really can't do well, your aunt will find you another one right away."

My aunt has the magnanimity of a northern woman and is very efficient in handling matters.

As he spoke, he inserted the key and turned the doorknob.

"You said you couldn't make exceptions, so the kitchenware is all old stuff we used at home, and we just brought you a set. The appliances and furniture are the same as before. As for the dishes and daily necessities, you can buy them yourself tomorrow." The house is small, but it has everything you need: a bedroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

There's even a large, curved balcony.

This building has nine floors in total. The second to last floor is less prone to leaks, not as hot, and provides excellent privacy. Wei Jinfang's work is truly impeccable.

Gu Lanxi tossed her luggage onto the pine sofa, unpacked the takeout boxes, and started showing off her food.

Are you tired from taking the train?

Gu Lanxi then told her about what she had seen and heard along the way.

"Acting is something I can't help but do. I need to know what kind of person the character is before I can bring out her soul."

"You did a great job; it's rare to see someone with that kind of determination."

When she mentioned the child she met on the train, I quickly took out my phone and showed her Gu Yongxin's child.

"I had a daughter, and she can sit up steadily now. I just went to see her a few days ago, and she's always smiling..."

Gu Lanxi leaned over to look, and after praising the child for a while, she heard her ask, "Speaking of which, you two have been married for over a year now, and this child..."

Gu Lanxi's biological father was unreliable, and her mother passed away early. The female elders around her liked to make plans for her, but everyone was quite restrained and rarely interfered in her life.

It's just a private chat, nothing serious.

Wealthy families truly have assets to inherit. Children are not only a continuation of life, but also a continuation of wealth. Those who can afford it will try to have more children.

Gu Lanxi is very capable, and her husband's family likes her very much. Her elders are not worried that she will not be able to stand on her own two feet without children, or that she will be disliked for not giving birth to a son.

He was simply concerned about her plans since she hadn't yet given birth to an heir.

"I'm filming two movies this year, and I plan to take a six-month break next year. I haven't discussed the specifics with him yet."

"Are you planning to stay here for the whole month? Are you going home for your birthday?"

“He’ll come to celebrate my birthday with me, and he’ll come over when he has a holiday. Don’t worry, Auntie, we’re doing great!”

There are indeed many dirty things in this circle, but there are also clean people.

There are always rumors circulating that the two of them will break up sooner or later. It's normal for family members who don't know the situation to ask about the two of them.

Gu Lanxi finished her meal quickly, and Wei Jinfang checked the time and prepared to leave.

"I'll bring you a used electric scooter later. It'll be more convenient for you to commute to and from get off work, and it'll be less likely to get stolen. I don't want to climb this eighth floor anymore. I'll leave the key with Uncle Fa at the convenience store; you can pick it up tomorrow morning."

Wei Jinfang is the landlady of this area. She has been friends with Uncle Fa, who runs the convenience store, for over twenty years, and he can easily help her with this kind of thing.

Gu Lanxi agreed, escorted the person to the door, locked the door from the inside, and then went back inside to video call Lu Nanting.

As it turns out, Lu Nanting is still recording a variety show.

When Xiao Jiang received the video call, she immediately asked her to keep quiet and watch Lu Nanting's performance.

Normally, Xiao Jiang wouldn't accept this, so there must be a reason why she took it upon herself this time.

Gu Lanxi sat at the dining table, watching quietly.

On stage, Lu Nanting was holding a guitar and casually playing and singing:

"The south wind..."
Please tell Gu Lanxi
I miss you so much
......"

Gu Lanxi's vision went black!
She had only been in Guangzhou for less than three hours, and the whole world already knew she had come to the south!
When is the time most conducive to creative inspiration?

When my mood fluctuates greatly.

I'm begging for your monthly votes at the beginning of the month, just so I can experience that feeling of great joy. Thanks a lot! Haha.
