The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 401 Three Days
"What did I do to her? Ha!"

Seeing him, her first reaction was to question her in a protective manner. Even though she had long since given up on the idea of ​​fatherly love, Gu Lanxi still laughed in anger.

So her tone immediately turned cold: "If failing to save someone in distress is a sin, then I am indeed deeply sinful."

After saying goodbye to the elders, he left.

That mistress was no pushover. She was only with Gu Weihua for his money. She was expelled from the family and went bankrupt quickly. She wouldn't stay quiet for more than a few years.

Gu Lanxi initially planned to take revenge on this family, but the private investigator she hired reported that the two of them were either arguing, fighting, or the child was crying and threatening to jump into the river...

In just a few short years, the sheer number of dramas that family has caused is enough to fill three days and three nights of storytelling.

She felt that she had a bright future ahead of her and there was no need to dirty her hands with such a person.

So I've been keeping an eye on them all these years, but I've never really dealt with them.

Witnessing her enemy suffer in pain was far more satisfying for her than a one-time resolution.

Gu Weihua is not good at management and is somewhat ambitious but incompetent. Since her mother died, the factory has been on a downward trend.

In addition, there are many shoe factories in Wenzhou. Once they lose their competitiveness, they will be constantly squeezed out of their living space, and bankruptcy is only a matter of time.

Since this couple is not upright, their preferred solutions to problems are naturally not very noble or righteous.

So, not only do they evade taxes, they also love to pour boiling water on their competitors' money trees...

It's also somewhat influenced by traditional thinking.

Gu Lanxi was about to submit a letter of complaint, but this person, perhaps blessed by his ancestors, sensed something was wrong and cobbled together a bunch of things to pay the taxes before being investigated, even tearfully admitting his mistake.

Later, even though the factory went bankrupt, neither of them went in.

Gu Lanxi felt a little regretful at the time.

Not long after, the private investigator photographed the mistress frequently seeing a young man.

The man was a repeat offender who was good at providing emotional value and was also skilled at psychological manipulation. He liked to pretend to be a rich second-generation and trick people into making big money with him. In reality, he was a new type of telecom fraudster who was involved in online gambling.

Gu Lanxi found out, but she didn't remind the other party. Instead, she asked the private investigator to keep a close eye on things, afraid of missing even one part of the good show.

During the day, I contacted the detective and learned that the mistress had even put her silver bracelet up for sale. I guessed that she was probably penniless and had no money left. I was going to wait for her to explode on her own, but this shameless woman even wanted to go to the wedding to drink the tea offered by Lu Nanting!

She even thought her mother wasn't good enough for her!
This immediately infuriated her.

According to her plan, she intended to scare him a little and have someone keep an eye on him to prevent him from getting close to the wedding venue. However, to make herself feel better, she decided to detonate the landmine in advance and let him go back and fight with his mistress.

Gu Lanxi didn't want to say anything more, so she turned around and left, leaving everyone completely bewildered and looking at each other in confusion.

Gu Weihao didn't have time to think about anything else and quickly called his mistress.

They've sold everything they could at home and borrowed from everyone they could. With the promised repayment date fast approaching, the mistress is terrified and doesn't dare answer his calls.

He couldn't get through on the phone, so he could only call his child.

The eldest son answered the phone, but before he could even hear what was being said, he heard deafening music and men and women flirting. He cursed, "You're hopeless!" and slammed the phone down.

I called my youngest daughter. She was home alone and hadn't eaten dinner. When she got home from school, she tried calling him but couldn't get through. She called her mother but no one answered. Her brother answered but didn't care about her. Eventually, she cried herself to sleep. As soon as she received her father's call, she started sobbing uncontrollably and couldn't breathe properly.

Gu Weihao disregarded everything else and quickly bought a plane ticket. He didn't even need anyone to take him back; he rushed back to Wenzhou as if his pants were on fire.

After arranging for someone to keep an eye on things, Gu Lanxi stopped paying attention to them.

When I left Wei Jinfang's house, I didn't say hello. The door was locked, and I didn't have the key to go back in.

Gu Lanxi rubbed her hands together, preparing to climb up the water pipe to the second floor, when the front door opened.

Wei Jinfang, wearing a thick bathrobe, smiled and invited her into the room:
"Your great-grandfather called and asked me to open the door for you."

Perhaps fearing that Gu Lanxi would lose face, he didn't ask about Gu Weihao's matter, but took a cup of hot water and went upstairs.

Gu Lanxi scratched her head, locked the door behind her, and without saying much, quickly went back to her room to tidy up before lying down obediently.

Tonight, a group of elders are in the ancestral hall, trying to handle things behind her back. By now, the news has probably spread far and wide, and all the elders in the clan who should know about it already know.

She has never liked being pitied or sympathized with, so everyone pretends not to know. In the family group chat where she is, everyone is quiet.

Gu Lanxi tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She picked up her phone and realized that she had sent a message to Lu Nanting earlier that evening, but he hadn't replied.

I opened WeChat, and sure enough, they had already replied.

She took a picture of the six planes at the airport that morning and sent it to Lu Nanting.

Under the rising sun, the rows of airplanes, because of their position in the sky, clearly displayed the six large characters "Manman's Happy Wedding".

Softer rice is definitely better.

The accompanying picture shows a bowl of brown rice.

I added a bit too much water when cooking it, so it does look a little soft.

Regarding her dowry, Lu Nanting said this. Knowing he was just joking, Gu Lanxi chuckled and suddenly wanted to hear Lu Nanting say something.

He always has a magical power to make people happy.

I checked the time; it wasn't even midnight yet, so I made the call.

Lu Nanting didn't answer the phone and hung up, but then called back via video.

As soon as the video call connected, Gu Lanxi couldn't help but cover the camera.

Afterwards, I realized something was wrong and quickly covered the screen. Only after covering the screen did I realize what the point of covering her side was!

Enraged, he yelled, "What are you doing?!"

Lu Nanting looked completely innocent, placed his phone on the bedside table, grabbed some clothes and pants, and put them on one by one in front of her.

"I just finished showering, and I didn't even have time to pay attention when I saw you were looking for me."

After giving a seemingly serious explanation, she turned the tables and said, "We're an old married couple, how can you be so shy!"

"The internet is unsafe, I've said it so many times! Face-to-face is fine, but it's better not to do this online, just in case..."

"If you're willing, I wouldn't mind recording a video and posting it."

"Am I crazy?"

"Then what is there to worry about?"

"What if there's a hacker, what if..."

"Okay I'm sorry."

Lu Nanting obediently got dressed, picked up a towel, dried his hair, sat down on the edge of the bed, took a sip of water, and then complained to her:
“My mom said that a fortune teller predicted our fates and that we can’t see each other for seven days before the wedding. Do you really agree to that? I feel like that fortune teller must be a die-hard fan of both of us! If he hadn’t taken the money, he probably would have made sure we never saw each other again.”

"What nonsense are you talking about? To avoid future troubles, seven days is fine."

"Three days at most. I heard that many couples don't separate until after the wedding ceremony, and they can meet again right after the wedding. They'll be separated for at most one day!"

"Everyone's fate is different."

Gu Lanxi was a stubborn person who believed that if she didn't burn paper money for her grandparents, they would suffer in the afterlife. She was somewhat superstitious, just like Zhang Ruolan.

Lu Nanting pouted and muttered "a little superstition," but Gu Lanxi pretended not to hear it.

Then she brought up the matter of her scumbag father.

Zhang Ruolan knew that her scumbag father had asked Gu Lanxi for money, but she felt it was Gu Lanxi's privacy and therefore never told her youngest son about it.

Gu Lanxi wasn't one to bring things up proactively, and since she had already forgotten about it, she hadn't mentioned it again.

I happened to run into them tonight, so I explained it to them in detail.

Lu Nanting frowned upon hearing this.

I changed my WeChat profile picture, but I never expected that the first victim wouldn't be our dear single friends, but our semi-literate daughter.

She ran over excitedly, holding her smartwatch, shouting, "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommy! There's someone I don't know here!! Who added me?!"
I said, "That's Dad."

The profile picture was cute, I thought it was a friend, but I got excited for nothing.

She said her dad's profile picture wasn't like that. I said, "Oh, that can be changed. Mom's has been changed too. You can see for yourself, just like you use your brother's picture as your wallpaper. You can change it whenever you want."

Then she actually flipped up.

Then she looked completely smitten and exclaimed, "Oh my gosh!" She said she had seen that movie.

I said yes, they are very good friends. My dad and I were the best of friends in the world from the very beginning.

Then, as if lost in thought, she began scrolling through her WeChat Moments.

Hahahaha.

Graduation ceremony is coming up, and we need to record graduation messages. I'll write the script tonight, get my hair done and dress up tomorrow before recording. I can't let her down.

Also, I've been feeling very tired and lazy lately, and I don't feel like writing. I haven't been able to overcome myself yet.

I don't even dare to hope for a monthly pass this month; I'll just leave it to fate.

If following the updates too closely isn't satisfying, I suggest saving them up.

It's been such a long, long time since I've had a vacation, maybe two or three years. Even as a freelancer, I've managed to maintain a professional demeanor. I'm speechless.

I bought early bird tickets for 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea today; I'll take them to see it this summer. The discount was huge. I'm so happy!

The last epiphyllum flower was left. It is said that once it starts to bloom, you shouldn't water it, otherwise the buds will fall off. I will definitely try it next time it blooms.

It should open in the next day or two.

Waiting for the flowers to bloom~
