Chapter 546 Strange and Cute

"I'm willing to go to the ends of the earth with you! I know it won't be easy!"

After Gu Lanxi finished showering, she came out wearing cool loungewear and heard Lu Nanting singing in the kitchen.

He turned a perfectly soothing love song into a rock song and sang it with heartbreaking intensity.

Gu Lanxi poured herself a glass of water, leaned against the door frame, and sipped it down. Then the song ended.

Seeing him plate the stir-fried orchid crab, I couldn't help but tease him: "It sounds like I eloped with someone, and you insisted on coming along. Then I disagreed, and you chased after me while singing and gritting your teeth."

Lu Nanting's hand trembled slightly; thankfully, she hadn't been driven mad by him!
Not to be outdone, she slammed the plate down on the table, turned around and went back to the kitchen. While washing the pot, she retorted, "I was clearly just trying to cheer myself up!"

"Tsk, why are you trying to cheer yourself up? Isn't loving me as simple as drinking water? You need to cheer yourself up? You must be really going through a lot."

"Look at the kind of place you've chosen to live! Let me tell you, Gu Manman, if a cockroach crawls all over me in the middle of the night, you're just waiting for this!"

"Then go stay at a hotel."

"No, I'm going to cover you up. If cockroaches want to crawl, they'll crawl on you first."

"Cockroaches will definitely crawl from the bottom up, and there might even be snails, all soft and squishy, ​​licking the soles of your feet."

Lu Nanting had just washed his hands, which were still wet with water droplets. Hearing this made him angry, so he flicked water at her.

Gu Lanxi is immune to this kind of childish behavior.

She pulled out a chair, sat down, propped her chin on her hands, and sighed deeply. "I always thought, how wonderful it would have been if I had known you when I was little. Then, when I lived under the stairs, you could have watched over me and let me sleep through the night. When I rented a small place, you would have changed the light bulbs for me; you could have chased away strangers who knocked on the door; and I could have hidden behind you if there were cockroaches in the house... But alas! I really can't expect too much. This house is so nice, yet you still complain..."

Gu Lanxi has always been strong and never liked to play the victim, but there is one person who is always an exception.

Only Lu Nanting felt sorry for her, never pity or curiosity.

Sure enough, as soon as he saw her use this trick, Lu Nanting immediately backed down.

Even though he knew she was acting, he still obediently apologized: "I'm sorry, I just felt sorry for you suffering, I didn't mean to look down on you."

This is a relative's house, so it's impossible for them to provide her with anything subpar.

Although the house is old and small, it is well maintained.

Although the furniture is a bit old-fashioned and not made of any expensive materials, it is all solid wood.

In addition, Gu Lanxi has always been a clean person, and her home is very tidy, so this little nest is still very cozy.

Besides, the conditions here are much better than in the small mountain village of Kaiyuan County. If we could stay here without hesitation back then, we certainly wouldn't complain about it here.

Gu Lanxi couldn't help but laugh: "Then you can't say that on purpose. You can't question my decision just because you feel sorry for me, or even try to change it. I will respect your career development, and you should respect mine. Don't you remember last year at Fashion Week, you dressed like that, and I wasn't angry at all..."

It was already dark. Because the buildings were close together and the ceilings were low, you could hear clearly what your neighbors were doing: cooking, scolding their children, people parking their cars downstairs, and even people climbing the stairs.

Gu Lanxi, exhausted from a long day, sat lazily under the dim light, gazing intently at Lu Nanting.

Lu Nanting couldn't stand her soft gaze and sighed, "You weren't angry. You just turned around and went to Africa to chase lions, which scared me so much that I quickly apologized, afraid that you would go do something else if I was too late."

“Oh, it seems this isn’t the only thing that upsets me,” Gu Lanxi said, feigning sadness. “Besides chasing lions, what else is there? Skiing? Diving? Jet skiing? Or rock climbing? Let me think… there’s more…”

"Please stop talking."

Gu Lanxi started her career filming action scenes, and often she wouldn't tell anyone when she got injured.

He arranged for someone to secretly monitor the crew's schedule. Knowing that she was filming action scenes, he would get very nervous, but he didn't even dare to visit the set.

God knows how many days like this have passed.

Moreover, Gu Lanxi doesn't like to bring up old grievances; once they are, he'll definitely be the one who suffers in the end.

Lu Nanting clasped his hands together, almost kowtowing to her.

Gu Lanxi then withdrew her supernatural powers and stopped mentioning these things.

While waiting for the soup to simmer, the boiled shrimp was also ready.

The two sat facing each other, peeling a shrimp for me and breaking off a piece of crab for you, eating and chatting at the same time.

"When our Gu family moved south, we made our fortune by raising silkworms, and we've had a long tradition of buying land. Even now, many branches still make a living by collecting rent. Do you know how the furniture factory that makes us started in the first place?"

"How did you start it?"

The Lu family's recorded lineage is not as long as the Gu family's, and their clan cohesion is not as strong as the Gu family located in the south. Naturally, there are not as many interesting things happening in the Lu family.

"It's to make furniture for the tribesmen, hahaha!"

Seeing her trying to prove that the little house was really nice, Lu Nanting couldn't help but laugh.

"Yes, these furniture pieces are indeed of very good quality." Seeing that he understood what she meant, Gu Lanxi couldn't help but show a hint of smugness.

So your complaints are your fault, not a problem with the house.

Lu Nanting raised an eyebrow, his words carrying a hidden meaning: "That's really great, at least we don't have to worry about the bed collapsing tonight."

Previously, when Gu Lanxi was filming "Lurking" in the mountains, Lu Nanting went to visit the set. However, the bed was infested with insects and collapsed due to the pressure. To this day, there are still rumors that the two of them broke a solid wood bed because they were too passionate about sex.

He's even more beastly than a beast; his second brother's strength is comparable to an elephant's.

Gu Lanxi was amused by him and couldn't stop laughing, so she leaned on the table.

After being in this circle for a long time, I've heard a lot of bizarre things, and that makes me very happy.

The two hadn't seen each other for many days, and when they finally did, they felt that everything they said carried a hint of ambiguity.

Seeing that she was looking down at him and her ears were red, Lu Nanting got up and went to the kitchen to bring out the soup and served her a bowl first.

Gu Lanxi then sat up, picked up the bowl, and nonchalantly blew on it as she drank.

After finishing the bowl of soup, something interesting came to mind:
"To make collecting rent easier, my cousin, who studied software development, made a small program specifically for collecting rent for his family as his graduation project. Everyone who used it thought it was great, so they pooled some money to give him to start a company. And then, guess what?"

"His relatives and friends all sought him out, and that's how his company started?"

Gu Lanxi nodded: "Yes, yes, the office software I've been using was made by him. It's unique, there aren't any on the market, it was all customized to my needs, it's really good."

"My family is full of talented people, it's really wonderful."

Large families have a cruel side; sticking together for warmth is not just a saying.

Being born into a prominent family means that, if you are capable enough, you can avoid many detours compared to others.

If Gu Lanxi hadn't come from the Gu family, her career wouldn't have developed so easily.

So back then, when her biological mother passed away and her grandparents also passed away one after another, she would rather abandon her only remaining biological father than stay in the family. She even took advantage of her father's unreliability to get herself listed in the family genealogy.

Over the years, they have been constantly working to quietly enhance their family's influence.

Otherwise, her wedding wouldn't have been such a grand affair.

In powerful clans, wealth can be inherited, but the grand spectacle of an entire clan mobilizing its resources for the sake of one person's honor can only be attributed to her own immense strength.

Gu Lanxi returned to Guangzhou, her feet planted on her native soil, and she encountered many old acquaintances, so she inevitably cared more about these things.

Lu Nanting was never stingy with praise.

“Sometimes I dream in the middle of the night that you are marrying me, and I can’t help but wake up laughing. Then I touch you and find you sleeping in my arms, and I want to laugh even more. For me, this is something to be very proud of. Last time I was this good, I beat the other competitors and successfully got born into my mother’s womb.”

"Wow, did Teacher Lu drink honey today?"

"Tsk, you still don't believe me?"

"Hmph, sweet words are not to be trusted."

"These days, even speaking the simple truth is considered pretentious. I'm really at my wit's end."

"So, what are you like when you exaggerate?"

"I want to fight you for three hundred rounds, and my golden spear will never fall."

Gu Lanxi laughed so hard she pounded the table!
"Tell me, what are those people who write fanfiction thinking? They're always writing fanfiction that goes on until dawn, and they portray me as some kind of donkey. They're obviously inexperienced and just writing nonsense."

You still read fanfiction?

"When you're bored, you need to have some healthy hobbies. But when I opened them up, I found that, whether it's writing or reading, my hobbies are the healthiest."

Gu Lanxi almost laughed until tears streamed down her face, and beckoned him closer.

When he came closer, he whispered to her, "In terms of duration alone, the donkey is no match at all. Even a dragonfly is better."

For some reason, something struck him as funny, and Lu Nanting immediately burst out laughing!
Weird and wonderful topics, and adorable interactions.

I love it so much~~
By the way, the collection of my writings has officially surpassed 300,000 words.

I'm thinking of waiting for a special time to print a batch of compilations at my own expense, personally sign them, and give them away. Would anyone want them?
38 years is too far away. August 10th, 28, will be the 8th anniversary of 33's debut. It's not that far away now.

By the way, I'm updating late today because I had a fight with the property management.

Sigh, I really never wrong myself, hehe.

good night.
