Chapter 34 The first day of living together
Eight people in the venture capital studio sat around the conference table, doing quarterly summaries. Gu Lanxi's camera was not turned on, and only a faint "hmm" came from time to time, indicating that she was listening.
This year, the authority to make small-amount independent investments was released. Now it was time to accept the results in stages, and she listened very carefully.
After Lu Nanting made the call, he walked around the house with nothing to do. He passed by the door of the study and brought her a glass of warm water.
Gu Lanxi took it easily, motioned for him to help himself, and interrupted the person opposite: "Have you checked this data carefully?"
The voice was slightly lowered, losing its softness and becoming more majestic.
The man was stunned for a moment, and probably discovered the problem. He didn't dare to argue at all. He simply accepted his negligence and promised to report to her alone after the calculation, and continued without changing his expression.
It has to be said that the psychological quality is quite good.
Lu Nanting didn't bother, left the study, and opened the door for her.
Among those who are in the same position, some are majestic, some are cold, and some seem to be as warm as spring breeze, but in fact they have no sand in their eyes. In front of her, even the slightest mistake cannot be ignored.
Whether it is about studies or career, Gu Lanxi is very serious and never turns a blind eye to problems when she finds them.
Lu Nanting left the study and looked around every room.
I am used to living a busy life, but it is actually quite unaccustomed to suddenly feel free.
Gu Lanxi was busy. He had just moved in. Apart from a few sets of clothes and a mobile phone, he didn't bring anything for entertainment. It was really boring.
Think about just staying in the living room, scrolling through Weibo and WeChat for a while.
My mother sent me a lot of messages. When I scrolled to the top, there were several messages in succession. Lu Nanting clicked through them, all of which were her beaming complaints:
"Oh my God! These paparazzi are so good at picking on weak persimmons! When your dad and your brother go out to work, they just follow you and take pictures from a distance. When I go out, they surround me and ask questions, using the microphone Almost didn’t put it in my mouth!”
"Originally I wanted to come here to find Manman, but now I can't help it. For your own good, I'd better just stay at home!"
"Tingzi, where are you two now? Do you want to go home?"
"I've made a list here. Please wait and see. Is it appropriate to give it to Manman? I'm afraid that it won't reach your heart. If there is no problem, I will send it to her."
"I really can't count on you, forget it, I'll send it to her directly!"
"Fortunately in the Internet age, we can still have a good chat without meeting each other, hehehe..."
[Picture*38]
Lu Nanting clicked through them, cash, real estate, jewelry, antiques, luxury cars...
Mom's words were full of joy. Obviously, even if the paparazzi annoyed her and made it inconvenient for her to go out, she was not really unhappy.
Lu Nanting was about to reply to the message when he saw a hot search reminder pop up at the top of his phone.
I can’t help but laugh when I see what it is:
"Mom, did you give red envelopes to the paparazzi?"
"Well, let them be happy, be merciful, and accumulate virtue, haha~"
Zhang Ruolan was also checking her cell phone at home at the moment, and replied immediately after seeing the message.
Lu Nanting sighed helplessly: "Mom, do you know that the red envelope you sent has been trending! Now people outside are spreading the news that you are very satisfied with your little daughter-in-law."
"I'm extremely satisfied! I'm extremely satisfied with my three daughters-in-law! Besides, in the Internet age, freedom of speech means it's impossible to block other people's mouths. Why not take the opportunity to increase your visibility? Maybe the traffic will increase, and you can still Can drive up the stock price.”
Afraid that her youngest son would be unhappy, she even explained:
"Your father has already informed the relevant units and asked them not to occupy public resources for private matters. As long as you are careful and don't get photographed and posted online, Manman and your marriage will not be exposed by the media."< br>
The family has always been very kind to Gu Lanxi, but Lu Nanting is not too worried about this.
"We just had breakfast and she is in a meeting. I have put off work these days and won't go out. Don't worry about me and protect yourselves."
The Lu family has bodyguards around them all year round, and they don't go to crowded places on weekdays. Apart from worrying about the paparazzi taking random photos, they don't have much to worry about.
Lu Nanting is most worried about his two nieces and nephews.
"How are Wei Chen and Jianing doing? Did they go to school today?"
Lu Nanting opened the family group and saw that the two sisters-in-law had not spoken, and he was a little worried that they would be unhappy.
Zhang Ruolan understood his son's concerns and did not tease him. He directly told him about the two children:
"Your eldest sister-in-law and your second sister-in-law set off early in the morning with their two children to study in Northern Europe. They will not come back until two weeks later. I was afraid that you would feel guilty, so you asked me to tell you that this was something that had been decided a long time ago, haha~ Now It hasn’t landed yet! Please contact them later.”
The response from my family was really quick.
Lu Nanting breathed a sigh of relief: "That's fine. The heat will have subsided by then." He knew that everyone in his family was good to him.
"Then just stay well! It's just a holiday, so the two of you can get along well."
Originally, I was worried that the two children were busy and wouldn't have much time to spend together, but the person who broke the news was quite considerate.
After talking to his mother, Lu Nanting felt calmer and calmer.
Seeing that it was past ten o'clock, I went to the refrigerator to grab a box of yogurt and drank it, and then went to the kitchen to wash an apple.
I wiped off the water and pinched my hands, and was about to "click" when I remembered that I now have a wife. I quickly found a fruit knife and carefully peeled off the skin. Then I asked Aunt Wang for a special cutting board for cutting fruits. , a kitchen knife, cut it into small pieces and put it in a bowl. Finally, I took a shiny pineapple head and stuck it on a fruit fork, and sent it to the study diligently.
After the meeting, Gu Lanxi turned off the computer and saw him coming in with a small bowl.
"What?"
Seeing her rubbing her dry eyes and standing on tiptoes to look at her, Lu Nanting forked a piece of apple and fed it to her - "Ah~"
But Gu Lanxi didn't appreciate it.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Thank you, I'll eat it myself."
Taking the bowl, Gu Lanxi turned around and sat down on the sofa.
Seeing her holding the bowl and eating in small bites, Lu Nanting couldn't help but take two more photos of her before handing her the phone over.
"Mom was originally going to come over, but she was blocked by the paparazzi. She made a list last night and sent one to both of us. Do you think there is anything you don't like about these?"
Generally speaking, when you get married, what kind of betrothal gift your husband's family will give and what dowry your husband's family will accompany you are all discussed by the elders and must abide by traditional rules.
In Gu Lanxi's situation, there is no difference between his biological father alive and dead. Times have changed, and etiquette and customs are also changing all the time. The only request of the Lu family for their son's marriage is that their daughter-in-law marry happily and stay at home. Live a long and long life.
Zhang Ruolan is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to adapt, so he directly asked her whether she was satisfied or not.
"Cars, houses, bills, jewelry, and antiques that can be passed down to the family were all there when the two sisters-in-law got married. Just accept them with peace of mind."
Although these things are settled in the name of the daughter-in-law, they are to protect the young couple's quality of life and are the elder couple's sincerity to protect their son.
After understanding what he meant, Gu Lanxi knew that it would not be good to refuse rashly.
But accepting it directly is not so calm.
We are both from a wealthy family. In some families, before a daughter-in-law marries in, her property must be notarized first. After giving birth to a son, her parents-in-law will reward her with a luxury home, cash, or company shares. Most of the time, It is still in the name of the grandson, and the daughter-in-law only has custody.
However, in the Lu family, the daughter-in-law has it as soon as she enters the house, and it is given to the daughter-in-law herself.
As if he knew what she was thinking, Lu Nanting sat next to her, leaning against the pumpkin pillow comfortably:
"The situation in our family is different from other families. My brothers and I all got married freely, and we married the people we like, so we value feelings more than interests. There are many marriages in other families, so naturally we value interests more. My parents have been looking forward to us for a long time. If we really can’t survive in the future, it’s because we three brothers are incompetent and we can’t blame our daughter-in-law.”
"How much do your parents trust you three brothers?"
"It's not all about us brothers. If your parents didn't like you, they would have beaten you up a long time ago."
Lu Nanting was particularly proud to see Gu Lanxi's expression of complete disgrace:
"Look, where are those families who are scheming and scheming now? Only our Lu family, because we value feelings the most, can be united. When people are united, mountains will move, right? Look at us, each generation is getting stronger than the last. Every generation is harmonious and harmonious. No matter how many sons the head of the family has, there has never been a fight between brothers for so many generations.”
"Then this is indeed something to be proud of."
Lu Nanting opened his hands, pretending to hold a crown, and gently placed it on Gu Lanxi's head: "Okay, Third Young Mistress, now I announce..."
Why does this guy talk so much all day long? !
Gu Lanxi stuffed the last piece of apple directly into his mouth: "Okay, brother, don't talk."
All right.
He liked to hear this.
Lu Nanting made a skillful zipper movement, and Lu Nanting immediately shut up.
I can’t imagine what it would be like for them to have a live broadcast.
I will first go and see what celebrities do live broadcast, and learn from it. When I want to write someday, I will have it at my fingertips.
I worked so hard!
As homework after class, please guess the unfinished lines of the Talking King based on the context?
Please, let me copy the book review.
Sometimes it feels like Gu Lanxi and Xu Yiyang are classmates majoring in kindergarten teachers. He is very good at coaxing children.
