The wife he married through an arranged marriage is so sweet, Mr. Lu can't control himself.

……

At nine o'clock in the morning, as agreed, Jiang Nian came to the villa on the hillside and picked up Gu Zhi to go out for fun again.

Gu Zhi mentioned that she slept poorly last night.

Jiang Nian laughed heartily:

"You're only just realizing this now! I'm so good to you. We've been sharing a bed for so long, and I'm only telling you today that you're a restless sleeper."

"I remember going to your house to look for you a few times, and you were always sleeping on the floor with a blanket. When I called you, you would respond verbally, but you weren't fully awake."

"Still half asleep, she grabbed the blanket and went back to bed."

"By the time you were fully awake, you were already in bed. You never imagined you were on the floor, that you had fallen on the floor."

Gu Zhi couldn't stop laughing either:

"You used to say I was a bad sleeper, and I thought you were joking."

She has always had difficulty getting out of bed, and it takes her a while to fully wake up.

I really didn't sleep well today, that's why I woke up so quickly.

Then Gu Zhicai mentioned that the Shen and Zou families wanted to buy SZ medical equipment.

Jiang Nian immediately cursed:

"Damn them! Even if you didn't say anything, their hospital wouldn't have passed Shenzhen's accreditation. Everyone knows their hospitals are always having problems; they don't care about patients' lives at all! Hospitals like that should shut down immediately!"

Gu Zhi: "You should also tell Yan Jue to be careful."

Jiang Nian: "OK".

At noon, while eating barbecue outside, Gu Zhi suddenly saw that someone had added her on WeChat.

She clicked on it and saw that the contact name was "Sister-in-law, I am Lu Yanbai".

Upon seeing this, Gu Zhi finally agreed.

Just as she agreed, Lu Yanbai sent a voice message: "Sister-in-law, why can't I get through to you on the phone? Have you set it to block all unknown numbers?"

Gu Zhi replied, "Yes, what's your number? I'll save it."

Last time, she saved the phone numbers of many people in the Lu family. Only when Lu Yanbai suddenly returned did she leave the Lu family, and Lu Yanbai was sent back to school by Qin Yang, so she didn't have time to exchange contact information.

Lu Yanbai immediately sent him his number.

The next second, another voice message came: "Sister-in-law, our class is having a parent-teacher conference tomorrow. As my parent, please come."

"I'm going to your parent-teacher conference?" Gu Zhi was a little surprised. "Isn't that inappropriate?"

"Why is it inappropriate? Aren't you my sister-in-law? An elder sister-in-law is like a mother, you're like my mother. Isn't it only natural for a mother to attend her son's parent-teacher conference?"

On the other end, Jiang Nian almost burst out laughing when she heard this voice message.

Gu Zhi also found the child quite interesting.

Before I could reply, they sent another voice message.

"Besides, you and I are both terrible students, so you'll definitely understand me better! Anyway, you're the one who's going to the parent-teacher conference! I don't care! It's you!"

Gu Zhi took a sip of juice before smiling and replying, "I can go to your parent-teacher conference, but little brother, I'm really not a bad student."

"Haha, sister-in-law, you're quite concerned about saving face. If you weren't a terrible student, how could you have failed high school? It's alright, it's alright, I'm just trying my best to be a little better than you. Shake hands, shake hands."

Gu Zhi laughed out loud.

Jiang Nian couldn't even grill the meat properly, and burst out laughing.

"From now on, you'll be last, and I'll be second to last. We'll both be at the bottom of the family."

After mentioning the specific time of the parent-teacher meeting, Lu Yanbai said that he was going to eat with his classmates in the cafeteria and that he had to stop talking.

Gu Zhi could only shake her head as she looked at the chat box between her and Lu Yanbai.

Jiang Nian laughed and said, "This kid is so funny. He's just convinced you're at the bottom, worse than him, and he's ecstatic about it. What if he ever finds out you're not actually a bad student? His world will collapse!"

Gu Zhi laughed and said, "Who cares? Anyway, I told you I'm not a bad student, it's just that he doesn't believe me."

"So you're really going to his parent-teacher conference tomorrow?"

"Since I'm free tomorrow, I'll go have some fun."

At 2 p.m., Gu Zhi asked Jiang Nian to take her to the hospital to see her grandfather.

As soon as I arrived at the hospital, my grandfather told me that the head of the Qi family had come to visit him that morning.

Gu Zhi had dinner with her grandfather at the hospital before going home.

That evening, when Lu Yanshen returned, Gu Zhicai said to him, "Yanbai came to see me today and asked me to attend his parent-teacher conference tomorrow."

Lu Yanshen paused slightly as he put down his watch before saying, "If you're willing, then go; if you're not, then don't go."

"I've already promised I'd go."

"Um."

"Who attended his previous parent-teacher conferences?" Gu Zhi asked casually.

"I was involved in all of his activities until he was ten years old."

"And after you turn ten?"

"I haven't heard him mention parent-teacher conferences since." He said in a very indifferent tone.

"Huh?" Gu Zhi was stunned.

Doesn't this mean that this is the first time Lu Yanbai has had a parent-teacher conference held for him since he turned ten?

Should we call her?

Lu Yanshen suddenly looked at her and said, "He really likes you as his sister-in-law."

Gu Zhi burst out laughing instantly: "Of course he likes it. He thinks I can be at the bottom of his class. Today he didn't say I'm the biggest good-for-nothing in the family, but he said I'm last and he's second to last."

"I will punish him."

"Oh, no need for that! Don't punish him!" Gu Zhi said hurriedly.

I knew that when he said he would be punished, he meant it.

She was just talking to him, not complaining.

"It's nothing serious, he's just saying it. He's just really happy. He's your brother, you should know him better than I do. And you said yourself, he really likes me as his sister-in-law."

Lu Yanshen then responded with a soft "Mm".

They indicated they would not impose a penalty.

"But you," Gu Zhi suddenly asked with a smile, cupping her face in her hands, "do you also think I'm useless?"

"no."

"But I didn't graduate high school."

"Academic performance isn't the sole criterion for judging a person." After saying this, Lu Yanshen added, "You can also punish him."

"You mean Yanbai?"

"Yes, you are the eldest sister-in-law. Not only Yanbai, but also Yanlin and Yanchi can be punished if they do something wrong. You can also punish other people in the clan."

"Does your wife have that much power?" Gu Zhi teased.

"It's not really, it's just that you're my wife, and this is something you should basically have."

"Wow!" Gu Zhi wanted to whistle at him.

He's so kind!

Gu Zhi then said, "I did not graduate from high school, but I skipped a grade and went directly to university."

Lu Yanshen wasn't surprised. "Hmm."

Whether she graduated from high school or went to college, she was still his wife.

He's so calm. He really is a big shot. He can always keep his composure. Gu Zhi found it boring and decided to drop the topic.

Smiling, she said, "Go take a shower, I'll wait for you to come back and hold me while we sleep~"

As expected, Lu Yanshen remained silent.

Gu Zhi burst into laughter.

I just want to roll around in bed a couple of times.

Seeing her laughing like that, Lu Yanshen's cold eyes held mostly helplessness.

She really went into the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower, Lu Yanshen came out, thinking about the agreement they had made that morning. He was indeed going to sleep with Gu Zhi in his arms from now on. His usually indifferent face showed a hint of unease.
