The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 496 Living a Very Wise Life

Before meeting Dingdingmao, Gu Lanxi never imagined how much trouble a fan could cause.

This was already the umpteenth time she had been betrayed by this Doraemon.

Gu Lanxi sometimes wondered if this person was incompatible with her.

After filming two scenes, it was her turn to rest. She initially wanted to stay downstairs, but then decided to go upstairs instead.

I opened the door to the lounge like a thief and saw Lu Nanting sitting cross-legged on the sofa, playing the thumb piano.

This is a custom-made 34-note double-key thumb piano with a body made of acacia wood and painted in orange-red. The gold keys are smooth and do not have scale markings on them like other thumb pianos on the market.

This was a wedding gift from a friend of Lu Nanting. It had been kept at his home in Beijing. In May, when he went back to Beijing for an event, he took it out to play with it on a whim, found it interesting, and brought it with him here.

I've been busy with several concerts in a row and haven't had time to play. Now that I'm on vacation these past two days, I've been clinging to my wife and haven't forgotten to bring her here.

It's small, and the lounge is at the very back of the second floor, so playing with it behind closed doors won't bother anyone.

Gu Lanxi found the melody quite novel, but it was fragmented and didn't form a coherent tune. Knowing that he was capturing inspiration, she didn't disturb him. She lay down on the single bed in the corner, closed her eyes, and prepared to take a nap.

Filming requires getting into character and is extremely mentally taxing. When I'm not filming action scenes or doing wire work, I'm not physically exhausted, but I feel mentally drained.

Lu Nanting sometimes wondered if his wife was a sleepyhead incarnate.

Seeing that she wasn't talking to him, he lay down, pressed his lips down, and ultimately said nothing. Instead, he started playing a soft melody.

This thumb piano is made of acacia wood, with a warm and mellow tone, and also has the unique ethereal quality of a thumb piano. It plays lyrical and healing light music, which is especially hypnotic.

It's perfect for pacifying this sleepyhead at home!

By a twist of fate, Lu Nanting finally figured out the instrument's greatest use, which is truly gratifying.

Half an hour later, Yu Xin came up to touch up her makeup. She wasn't surprised to hear music when she opened the door.

She came to the bedside, whispered a reminder, and immediately took out her makeup bag to get to work.

After touching up her makeup, Gu Lanxi sat up and saw Lu Nanting still sitting on the sofa with a thumb piano in his hand. She went over, hugged his neck, bent down and gave him a loud kiss on the cheek.

She slept soundly and felt refreshed, which is a reward!
"We should be able to get back early today. I heard there are watermelon farmers in the eastern suburbs who have set up watermelon sheds by the roadside. We can go to the fields and pick watermelons ourselves. How about we pick one on our way back?"

As the weather gets warmer, sweet and juicy watermelons become the most popular fruit in the family.

Gu Lanxi never chases after imported goods; she only likes the freshest gossip.

The best kind is the one that can be eaten in less than half an hour, right from the field to your home.

As for the Doraemon thing, if he doesn't bring it up, Gu Lanxi certainly won't bring it up on her own initiative.

Seeing her kiss him in front of the staff, Lu Nanting glanced at her amusedly, said nothing more, agreed to pick watermelons, and told her to go ahead and get busy.

Yu Xin helplessly took the lipstick and chased after him. The two talked and walked further and further away. Lu Nanting couldn't help but lower his head and smile.

Afterwards, she took out her phone, struck a pose, and took several photos of the lipstick marks on her face.

After taking the photos and looking at them again and again, I still didn't dare to post them on social media. Instead, I shared the photos in the "Loving Family" group chat.
[A happy problem: my wife is so clingy. I really don't know what to do.]

Yes, the group owner is Lu Nanting.

Actually, this group was initially formed because Lu Nanting wanted to learn dating tips from his two older brothers and father.

Times have changed, and in real life, the "matchmaker" is thrown over the wall after the bride is brought into the house.

It's not so bad if they're used and then thrown away, but this heartless little thing, because of work, can't show off too much, so he drags the three of them around all day long, forcing them to eat dog food.

Dad enjoyed watching their antics, but he was also a serious and upright person who didn't say much on ordinary days. No matter how smug Lu Nanting was, he just pretended not to see it.

But his two older brothers didn't spoil him.

The older brother delivered a devastating blow: "I heard the crew members are getting fat from drinking so much milk tea? Maybe next time you should treat them to herbal tea!"

Who is this guy who follows his wife to work and clings to her every day?
How dare you say such a thing?
It's just a kiss on the cheek, right? Everyone has a wife, right?
The second brother even released an even more impressive photo.

There was a lipstick mark on each cheek, one large and one small.

Afterwards, he sent a smug voice message: "Big brother, besides your wife, you also have a leather jacket; second brother, besides your wife, you also have a little cotton-padded jacket; and you, besides your wife, you also have a big, smelly fart! Hurry up and shut it up!"

Lu Nanting dared not speak out in anger, and simply changed his profile picture to a double-figure wooden nail painting.

The two older brothers pretended not to see it.

After reading it, Dad got up with a smile and decided to wander around to different departments.

All three sons are successful and live happy and fulfilling lives, which is the best medicine to soothe all unpleasantness for him.

As for the employees at Lu's headquarters, it goes without saying how they would feel if they suddenly turned around and saw the big boss walking past them with a smile.

After teasing his family for a while, Lu Nanting went to the "Loving Family" group chat and told his mother about the family dinner next week. Having finalized the arrangements, he sat alone in the quiet lounge, holding his phone, and couldn't help but smile.

Generally speaking, he is the one who doesn't shy away from other people's opinions and prefers intimate gestures; Gu Lanxi rarely does this.

This shows they have a guilty conscience.

Because of what?
Is she afraid he'll think she's too calculating and manipulative in a relationship?

Dingdingmao did indeed give many examples in the video to prove that Gu Lanxi is a "high-level woman" and not some naive and innocent girl.

But who said he likes naive and innocent girls?
Don't you think that such a clever woman, with all her tricks and schemes, uses them all on him alone? What could he possibly be dissatisfied with?

I'm overjoyed!
"Only incompetent men worry all the time that their wives are too capable."

It was getting hot, so Gu Lanxi changed the rag doll's clothes into a cool, silk vest, which she held in her arms.

At noon, Aunt Wang brought over lunch. Lu Nanting was tending to the coffee table while unpacking the thermos, and Gu Lanxi sat next to him, holding her doll.

I was feeling a bit sleepy when he suddenly said that out of the blue, and I immediately woke up.

"What did you say?"

“I said, feelings are like drinking water, only the person drinking knows whether it is hot or cold. I know better than anyone how good you are. Just treat those things on the internet as entertainment. They don’t understand us at all and just talk nonsense. You should focus on me, see what I do, and listen to what I say. That’s the most important thing.”

It turned out that he had come to comfort her because he saw that she was struggling with her feelings.

Gu Lanxi couldn't help but laugh: "So confident?"

"There's no way around it, I'm bound by ropes. Even if I'm a monkey, I'm the one you value most in the world, so why shouldn't I be confident?"

Gu Lanxi burst into laughter!
Seeing that he still had that lipstick mark on his face, she reached for a tissue to wipe it off for him, but Lu Nanting turned his head away and wouldn't let her.

"I've decided not to wash my face for the next week, so please don't ruin my makeup."

The makeup and styling are divine!
During their rare lunch break, the staff went to find a place to rest, and no one disturbed the two of them. However, when someone passed by, they inevitably heard her laughing.

They talked about this a lot in private.

In this world, perhaps only Lu Nanting possesses such magic, enabling Gu Lanxi to break free from the shackles that bind her and freely be her true self.

The human-powered tricycle was on the road for the first time.

The wheels are on, but the brakes aren't working, the mudguards rattle and clang all the way, and the handlebars are still crooked...

It can be ridden, but it has a lot of minor problems.

The security guard couldn't stand it and told me, "There's a car repair shop somewhere. Go there and get it fixed."

So I rode my bike there.

It's quite far.

The security guard asked me why I didn't buy an electric one. You could buy one for a few thousand yuan.

I told them I couldn't ride it, so buying it would be useless.

Okay, I got a look that said, "So poor, yet so stubborn."

The mechanic also asked me why I didn't buy an electric one.

I would say the same thing.

When the car was repaired, the mechanic didn't charge me.

Then I bought him some fruit, put it down, and rode off on my bike.

Next time I'll definitely say it's for environmental protection.

Or they could say it's for exercise.

That would make me look richer.

Master Li is also very happy today.

In conclusion, you need to go out more often to meet more lovely people.

P.S.: The mobile repair stall is run by a family of three. The owner is very talkative and enthusiastic. She told me to go to her next time I have a problem, and to recommend her to anyone who needs a repair.

There are many such husband-and-wife teams in Sichuan. The wife carries the bag and money, and the payment QR code is also hers. She is also responsible for greeting customers, while the man is responsible for the work. He is silent and efficient.

I had an idea to write about such a family in a book.

Whenever I have free time, I go and chat with the landlady.
