Movie variety show soul travels between two worlds to become a rich man

Chapter 9 If You Are the One
The appearance of the red Ferrari in the alleys of Nanluoguxiang attracted a lot of attention, and many local residents asked and talked about it curiously.

Especially when the tall and handsome Gao Dongxu opened the red-painted mottled gate of the courtyard house No. 95, which had been uninhabited for a long time, with his powerful aura, beautiful and capable mature lady, it aroused more speculation and discussion among some people.

Under the autumn sun, the ancient alleyways exude a unique charm. The screen walls on the opposite sides, the archway-style hanging flower gates, the red-walled and gray-tiled quadrangles, and the courtyards dotted with golden ginkgo trees, fiery red pomegranates, and grape trellises—even though they are overgrown with weeds and their doors and windows are dilapidated, they still seem to have traveled through time, telling the story of the ages.

"Ceiling, fish tank, pomegranate tree, husband, fat dog, fat girl."

Standing in the courtyard filled with an old atmosphere, Ling Yi looked around, then looked at Gao Dongxu, whose eyes were shining, and teased with a smile.

"Sir, you have the ceiling, the fish tank, the pomegranate tree, everything you need is a fat dog. As for the fat girl... Haha, I prefer beauties with hot bodies and curvy figures. Forget about fat girls." Gao Dongxu smiled as he looked at the beautiful and mature Lingyi, his eyes sparkling with a strange light.

Lingyi met his gaze, then shifted her beautiful eyes away without leaving a trace, smiling and teasing, "You've never lacked beauties around you."

"That was all in the past..." Gao Dongxu said seriously with a hint of sadness. He didn't want to talk about the past. After all, there was no memory of women related to love in the memories he received. If he said too much, he would be exposed.

Sure enough, seeing Gao Dongxu's expression, Lingyi stopped teasing him and started talking about repairs and decoration.

"Are you planning to spend a lot of money to renovate and decorate this place?"

"Well, I will move here in the future. I have contacted several decoration design studios and asked them to send people to take a look and come up with a design plan." Gao Dongxu said, his eyes fixed on the east wing of the first courtyard and the cellar entrance full of junk in the corner of the wall leading to the hanging flower gate of the second courtyard, suppressing the strong desire to go down to the cellar.

It seems that what really attracted him to this courtyard was this cellar.

"Let's go and take a look at the inner courtyard—"

Gao Dongxu took a deep breath, stopped looking in the direction of the cellar, and took Lingyi through the hanging flower gate of the first courtyard and entered the even more dilapidated second courtyard.

Standing in the center of the second courtyard and looking around, you can see the ancient and dilapidated bricks and tiles, the faded and mottled delicate carvings, and the staggered courtyard layout. Every detail reveals the accumulation of time and the ingenuity of the craftsmen.

The sunlight shines through the sparse clouds and dapples onto the bluestone slabs. In the interweaving of light and shadow, one can seem to hear the gentle footsteps of time flowing slowly in this small space.

The two of them strolled along the corridor, looking at the dirty and dilapidated rooms. Gao Dongxu's fingertips gently slid across the wooden window frames that had been touched by time, and his heart was filled with emotion.

"It will cost a lot of money just to clean it up." Lingyi wrinkled her nose slightly and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief to block out the dust and the smell of corruption.

"Take your time to clean up. I want to transform this courtyard into a living space that retains traditional charm while offering modern comforts. Here, one can feel the weight of history while enjoying the convenience and beauty of modern life.

In spring, listen to the wind; in summer, listen to the cicadas; in autumn, listen to the insects; in winter, listen to the snow. . . "

Gao Dongxu expressed his thoughts.

"Dongxu, you are indeed different from before. You used to be the one who rejected tradition the most..." Lingyi said, looking at Gao Dongxu with her beautiful eyes flashing.

"People grow up and mature. Just like I used to not understand why my father liked Peking Opera, but now I think Peking Opera is really charming." Gao Dongxu smiled frankly.

Seeing Gao Dongxu talking about his teacher so frankly, Lingyi was happy that he had gotten over his sadness, but she couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, there's nothing good to see anymore. It's already noon. I just found a good restaurant and I'll take you there to try it." Lingyi really couldn't stand the decay and dust in the yard, so she dragged Gao Dongxu out.

Gao Dongxu smiled and let her drag him out of the courtyard.

After closing and locking the door and getting ready to get in the car, I noticed a number of people in the alley looking at me. I couldn't help but smile and nod. I got in the car, started it, and followed Lingyi's Audi Q7 out of the alley.

At the Workers' Stadium artificial lake, a Ferrari and an Audi Q7 were parked in the parking spaces. Gao Dongxu got out of the car and looked at the green grass and the shimmering golden lake. He smiled at Lingyi and said, "The environment is nice."

"The dishes are well-cooked and very novel. You'll know when you try them." Lingyi smiled and naturally took Gao Dongxu's arm, and walked towards the restaurant called Jasmine together.

The restaurant has a first-class environment. Square tables are scattered around the lake outdoors. The interior is white and blue-gray, dotted with red and purple. Every space and every corner is elegant, and the tall red wine lounge is even more spectacular.

Lingyi chose an outdoor dining table and was led to the table by the waiter. When passing by the table of a man and a woman, Gao Dongxu heard a familiar and funny conversation with his extremely keen hearing.

Man: "A little weak."

Woman: "It's good to be a little weak. You don't have to exercise. I can take care of you if you are sick."

Man: "Why don't you want to find someone strong and healthy? Why do you have to pick on someone who is weak?"

Woman: "The softest ones are the most delicious."

M: You are sickly and old, don’t you worry about the quality of your marriage? At your age, let me be frank, you are in the prime of your life...

As he laughed, Gao Dongxu looked at the couple. It was indeed the bald Mr. Ge and the cold and aloof long-necked beauty.

If you are the one, please do not disturb... Haha, this world is becoming more and more interesting.

"What's wrong?" Lingyi asked suspiciously as she looked at Gao Dongxu who was smiling at a pair of strange men and women.

Gao Dongxu suppressed his laughter and whispered to Lingyi about the conversation he had just heard.

"Puch-"

Lingyi was also amused, laughing so charmingly that her body trembled. She poutily hit Gao Dongxu lightly and said in a low voice, "All men are bad..."

"Haha, I think the man is quite honest. He says whatever he thinks. He can't just marry a female Bodhisattva and worship her at home." Gao Dongxu smiled and supported Lingyi's lower back, helped her pull out the chair, and after she sat down, he sat opposite her and teased with a smile.

"In the end, after the passion is over, everything is just a mess..." Lingyi said sarcastically, seeing through the essence of the matter.

"Sister, you can't be so rational. Love is impulsive, blind and emotional. Treating love rationally will only make you fear..."

"Come on, take care of yourself first. You don't have to worry about my affairs." Lingyi gave Gao Dongxu a look of dissatisfaction. Just then, the waiter came over with the menu. She took the menu and started to order dishes.

In response, Gao Dongxu just smiled at Ling Yi, who was cold and elegant but not charming.
