The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 594 "A Gentle Journey" Part 7
"#Gu Lanxi is a real domineering CEO# Look at this trending topic, I'm impressed! And the top comment is, 'Gu Lanxi opened a light novel, but after reading it, she was very confused, "This isn't lighthearted at all?"' Haha, netizens are so talented!"

Gu Lanxi held a warm cup of milk, nestled in the single sofa by the window, quietly watching the sparrows in the backyard pecking at grass seeds.

In late March, a thick layer of green had already emerged from the withered grass stalks. As the sun set, little sparrows, with wide eyes, hopped around on the lawn.

There was chattering outside the window, and the same chattering inside.

It's not easy for one person to achieve this effect.

Gu Lanxi lowered her head to drink her milk, unable to suppress a soft smile.

She used to not find these common little creatures interesting. Instead, she preferred to travel long distances to chase after rare species that ordinary people rarely see.

Before she met Lu Nanting, she always felt that it was a foolish thing to spend time with another person like this, doing nothing of importance and letting time slip by.

Now I find these days very precious.

I guess I've finally reached the age where I can appreciate the saying "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."

Lu Nanting sat opposite her, wearing a face mask and looking at his phone. He laughed as he looked at his phone, and the mask fell off when he laughed. He then casually picked it up.

No matter what I see, if I find it funny, I will definitely share it with her, even if she doesn't pay attention and only occasionally replies with a faint "hmm".

After finishing recording a street dance variety show in the afternoon, Lu Nanting rushed to have dinner with his wife. He even took off his makeup when he arrived here, and his hair was still wet.

Seeing his bright smile, Gu Lanxi, despite being exhausted, felt genuinely relieved.

Unlike her, Lu Nanting likes to go online and especially likes to see what his fans are up to. If he releases some sweet moments but his fans can't get what they want, he'll log into his alternate account to leak the information. If he reveals even the slightest clue, his fans will definitely catch him.

Gu Lanxi always found it adorable.

The fans are adorable, and Lu Nanting is adorable too.

The show will only be officially broadcast after it's finished recording, but there will be occasional live broadcasts during the recording process, and some exciting behind-the-scenes clips will be released to generate buzz.

Yesterday, the program team happened to release a preview of the workplace episode. Gu Lanxi was only shown in a clip wearing a business suit listening to Feng Lu's work report. There was no sound at all, but it still attracted a lot of attention.

Because she's been busy lately, there are quite a few people waiting to report to her, and everyone knows there are cameras around, so they seem very nervous, making the footage quite impactful.

This morning, her domineering CEO persona was pushed to the top of the trending searches by her fans.

Which celebrity in the industry hasn't started their own company?

But there are big differences between different domineering CEOs.

She runs legitimate businesses. Leaving aside venture capital, her investments are all in industries closely related to the national economy and people's livelihood. Take the MCN company she got involved in last year, for example. Although it promotes internet celebrities, it has always been working diligently on agriculture, rural areas, and farmers. In every meeting, she repeatedly emphasizes that it is essential to prioritize helping the country's poverty alleviation efforts. As for the international trading company, it also mainly deals in agricultural and sideline products.

Fans say she's the real domineering CEO, and she truly deserves the title.

Those internet celebrities who make quick money by exploiting their fans, even if they're lucky enough to attend the same event as her, they won't be able to sit at the same table with her.

Moreover, she frequently appears in the news and in various official financial magazines, something other celebrities wouldn't even dare to dream of.

To be fair, today's audiences aren't stupid. Each guest did their best to show their real work environment, because nobody wants to be accused of being pretentious.

This is her job, and it's her daily routine. Only those who don't know her well would be surprised.

Gu Lanxi enjoyed this moment of tranquility, pursing her lips and remaining silent.

But a smug smile appeared on his face.

In front of strangers, she likes to act mature, but in front of close friends and family, she unconsciously shows the way she should be at her age.

Lu Nanting kept stealing glances at her, and as he watched, he forgot all about his phone.

Why are you looking at me like that? You've been looking at me for so many years, aren't you tired of it yet?

"What's with the 'getting tired of' thing? Staring at someone you like will only make you happy. Those who get tired of things so easily are just making excuses for their fickleness, as if blaming their partner makes them innocent. Tsk, if you keep putting me in the same category as those kinds of people, I'll get angry."

Gu Lanxi chuckled and handed him the empty cup: "I'm sorry, I was wrong. Our Teacher Lu is the best in the world."

Lu Nanting took the cup and placed it on the table, then casually pulled out a tissue to wipe her mouth.

After throwing the crumpled paper in the trash can and then peeling off and throwing away the face mask, he rested his hands on his knees, leaned forward, and deliberately moved close to her, asking her earnestly:
"Do you think people would criticize me if I stopped working one day and just stayed at home like a couch potato?"

"It's up to you. If you want to work, I'll support you to the end. If you want to rest, that's fine too. I can take good care of you." These words were spoken casually, but Lu Nanting never doubted Gu Lanxi's word.

After all, this person would even admit to illegal bets made when he was a child.

Lu Nanting picked her up and placed her on his lap, holding her securely in his arms. He nuzzled her shoulder a few times before letting out a soft sigh.

"I've been feeling really tired lately. I just can't seem to muster the energy to do anything, and as soon as I step out the door, I just want to go home. I feel anxious if I can't see you."

"Hmm, when are you able to take a vacation? Let's find some time to take a proper break! Maybe if you stay at home for a few more days, you'll get restless."

Given Lu Nanting's background, if he were a pleasure-seeking person, he would have become a complete playboy long ago, instead of working hard every day like he does now.

He felt this way simply because he wanted to spend more time with his wife and children, so he adjusted his work schedule to be more intensive while Gu Lanxi was busy.

"I just want to hold you a little longer. You'll feel much better once you're fully charged."

As parents, there's nothing to complain about.

Although Lu Nanting often worries that once the child is born, his wife will focus all her attention on the child, he has mentally prepared himself.

Children are the fruit of love. After having children, couples will have many more things to talk about, which is a good thing.

"How will the filming be done tomorrow? Has the production team informed us yet?"

After hugging for a while, Lu Nanting asked about tomorrow's plans.

This program covers a lot of pregnancy and infant knowledge. If the guests want to appear knowledgeable on the show, they naturally need to prepare in advance. If they don't have a script at all, it's fine if the program doesn't perform well, but if they say something wrong and cause the audience to misjudge, that would be disastrous.

The production team carefully planned each episode in order to boost ratings.

Tomorrow we'll start filming the fourth episode, "Teammates: The Earth's Table," with the theme of "a dietary philosophy that nourishes the body and mind."

In this episode, the partners of the six guests will visit the set and, according to the program's arrangements, each of them will demonstrate how they, as expectant fathers, take care of their wives.

Of course, most importantly, it lets the audience know how celebrity couples get along in their daily lives.

Those who follow celebrities and love to ship couples all day long, these six ready-made legal couples are practically a special show for them to enjoy without worry.

It's a rare occasion for the couple to be together, so they should definitely shower each other with sweetness!

"I'm guessing we'll go to a nearby organic farm, pick our own pollution-free organic vegetables, and then cook together."

Today's filming just ended, and the script hasn't been received yet. Gu Lanxi is just guessing based on her experience.

After all, the guests are all pregnant women, so they can't climb mountains or go into the water. At most, they can create some heartwarming moments on the farm.

"There will probably be groups, with twelve people squeezed together. Too many people would make it chaotic."

"Let's see tomorrow. We're here for exposure anyway, so we'll just do whatever the production team does."

Gu Lanxi didn't appear on variety shows before because she didn't follow the traffic route and didn't lack acting opportunities. Now she needs to maintain her exposure and has some free time, so she's here. But expecting her to put on an act for this show is impossible.

The kids are all out of school this week, including New Year's Day, so they can stay home and rest properly.

I tried to hold on for a few days but couldn't. I got a fever last night and my whole body ached. I got up in the middle of the night and took an ibuprofen. I feel a little better today, but I still don't have much energy.

I finally got a double monthly pass, but then the update stopped.

Although I don't update often, I still feel guilty.

My older sister's class is now taking online classes from home. The flu is really bad. I spend my days helping her with her studies, playing with my younger brother, doing laundry, cooking, and cleaning. There's not much to do, but it's all very mundane.

Each child received a scarf, and they were all very happy.

With the two spools of yarn left, I plan to crochet a hat for each of them.

I won't fall asleep if I have something to do.

I'm really afraid they'll cause trouble.

If a child of this age becomes quiet, you should be extra vigilant.

Good night, everyone.
