Chapter 636 So Many Younger Brothers

Gu Lanxi appears to be gentle and approachable, but in reality, she is quite cold.

Even at 24, there are still not many people she can talk to purely about feelings.

The reason she is so generous in doing good deeds every day is simply because she experienced isolation as a child, and she understands the principle that having more friends means having more options, but she is unwilling to make genuine connections with others.

Therefore, in her view, it is very necessary to build a network of interests that belongs exclusively to herself.

"Therefore it is said: 'The world is bustling, all for profit; the world is bustling, all for profit.' Even kings with a thousand chariots, lords with ten thousand households, and rulers of a hundred families still worry about poverty, let alone ordinary people!"

That night, the bedroom was dimly lit. Tuantuan lay on Gu Lanxi, half asleep. Gu Lanxi closed her eyes slightly, supporting the baby's bottom with one hand to prevent her from slipping down, and gently stroking her back with the other, while softly reciting "The Biographies of Merchants".

Just as the child was about to fall asleep, her phone rang. Tuantuan immediately widened her eyes and tried to sit up, supporting herself on her chest.

Gu Lanxi felt a sharp pain in her chest from the sudden support. Forgetting about her phone, she quickly grabbed Tuan Tuan's armpits and lifted her up.

"father!"

The little girl is a soft, white bundle, but she calls out "Daddy" very clearly.

Gu Lanxi put her aside and made her sit down before picking up her phone.

Lu Nanting was busy all day. When she had a free moment in the morning, Tuantuan was still asleep. When she was about to go to sleep, she was still busy and couldn't find a moment to rest. As a result, Tuantuan hadn't been able to contact her father all day. When she heard the special ringtone of her phone, she knew it was her father.

When I get excited, all my sleepiness disappears.

The video call was disconnected before Gu Lanxi could answer. She called back and saw Lu Nanting in the dressing room, his face still covered in glittering stage makeup.

The Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner, and Lu Nanting is recording the Dragon Boat Festival Gala for CCTV today.

This is different from the Spring Festival Gala; it's not a live broadcast, but a pre-recorded one.

"Still not asleep?"

Lu Nanting spoke first, his voice slightly hoarse.

Tuantuan stared at him for at least five seconds before whispering in a questioning tone, "Dad?" Lu Nanting smiled gently:
"Our baby isn't asleep yet?"

Tuantuan was anxious, but she couldn't say much, so she could only call out "Dad" in a string of words.

Gu Lanxi had been filming all day and was exhausted. She was about to put the child to sleep when she was woken up again. It was only because she had a good temper that she could hold back from yelling.

But she didn't say anything, yet someone with a built-in translator immediately noticed her displeasure and quickly scratched their head to assure her:

"I'll be back first thing tomorrow morning. I'll take care of the kids from now on. Are you tired? Go to sleep early. I promise you'll see me as soon as you open your eyes tomorrow."

Gu Lanxi sighed helplessly: "It's a rare day off, you should get some sleep before coming. Don't rush, it's not good for your health. I have a lot of people here, and the kids are well-behaved, so it won't be difficult to take care of them."

Except for being a little clingy when sleeping and needing her mother to soothe her, she can stay quietly as long as she is in a place where she can see her mother.

Despite her young age, she really enjoys the general knowledge lessons taught by her tutor.

In fact, because she particularly enjoyed the feeling of learning new things, when she was learning to speak, she first said "mama," then "papa," and the third word she learned was "class."

Like her mother, Tuantuan has extraordinary intelligence. When the couple talks to her, they treat her as a separate, intelligent individual and never use obscene or reduplicative words.

She nodded vigorously when her mother told her that she was very well-behaved.

Lu Nanting was charmed and smiled, but hung up the video call without hesitation.

When the screen returned to the chat window, he sighed softly, opened his photo album, found the video call he had just recorded, and stared at it blankly.

Sometimes he even wants to take a few years off to focus on raising his child and spending time with his family. When he's not around, the child suddenly starts calling him "Dad" and "Mom," and if he goes back home after just a few days away, he'll find that the child has grown several sizes.

Gu Lanxi has to manage her business, her entertainment career, and take care of her child in her spare time. She's really exhausted.

Because I'm very tired, I haven't been contacting him much lately. When I do have time to call him, I don't feel much desire to communicate.

It's not that it's targeting him, but that it applies to everyone.

He felt that this was very wrong.

Only when people have their basic survival needs guaranteed can they have the leisure to fall in love. She's busy to death every day, and if she had any free time, given Gu Lanxi's personality, she would probably just want to sleep.

You can't blame her for that...

As Lu Nanting was pondering this, he overheard the staff talking about Su Yichen.

"What's wrong with him now?"

Lu Nanting had already heard his wife tell him about Gu Lanxi's chance encounter with Su Yichen while shopping and how she helped him out of a predicament. He was surprised that someone close to him was bringing up the man again, so he couldn't help but ask what had happened.

"A few days ago, he was blocked in the mall by sasaeng fans, and Teacher Gu rescued him. It was also Xiao Su's good luck. Teacher Gu had just dropped him off at the hotel booked by the film crew when the crew ran into a shortage of people and directly recruited him to play a role."

"Well, then what?"

Lu Nanting also knew about this.

Not only did they know, but they also knew that Su Yichen and his agent had gone to thank Gu Lanxi, and the gift they gave her was a cake of fine tea and a set of exquisite Kung Fu tea utensils.

"You're busy today, so you probably don't know. Because of this, Su Yichen's fans have been praising our Teacher Gu to the skies. Seeing that the hype is rising, other people are starting to ride the wave, all saying how Teacher Gu helped them."

"Oh?"

The makeup artist took out a makeup remover pad and began to remove his makeup. Lu Nanting remained calm and composed. After he finished tidying himself up and changed his clothes, he took out his phone on his way home and looked at it from beginning to end.

Before watching it, I didn't think much of it, but after watching it, I was so jealous!
One junior brother, two junior brothers, and three big-chested brothers...

They were either introducing resources to people or helping them expand their networks. The most outrageous one even took him to the hospital in the middle of the night!
Why are there so many younger brothers who have no sense of boundaries?!

Normally it would be fine, he's quite confident, but lately Gu Lanxi hasn't been paying attention to him, which makes him feel very upset.

Even the most delicious foods can become tiresome.

This is the main reason why many men, even after marrying a goddess, still yearn for other women who are considered unattractive.

It wasn't that he didn't believe in Gu Lanxi's loyalty; the main thing was that he felt particularly uncomfortable whenever he thought about how his wife had genuinely cared for these people!

This mentality is similar to when a husband sees a beautiful woman walking by and can't help but glance at her a few more times.

This doesn't mean he's going to do anything, but in his wife's eyes, it means he's seen it.

Moreover, it represents an uncontrollable risk.

This is something he cannot tolerate; just thinking about it will set off alarm bells!
Gu Lanxi simply focused all her energy on work and taking care of her child, passively entering an "energy-saving mode" and not feeling that there was any problem at all.

Before they got married, they sometimes wouldn't contact each other for a month or two!
So when she turned over in the middle of the night, she saw Lu Nanting propping his head up with his hand and staring straight at her. She was so startled that she almost kicked him off the bed!

The old vinegar jar is about to unleash its power again.

You could edit a hundred episodes of a collection of videos featuring a little slipper showing jealousy.

haha~
