The sweetest in the entertainment industry

What was sent in Chapter 89?

Eight packages? I didn't order anything online!

Besides, even if she shopped online, she shouldn't have contacted Aunt Wang, right?
Many female celebrities in the entertainment industry are keen on online shopping, but fearing privacy leaks, they like to keep the phone numbers of their staff.

But Gu Lanxi never did that.

Because she clearly distinguishes between public and private matters and has a strong sense of boundaries, she always believes in doing only what you are paid for and never asks her staff to do anything beyond their job duties.

She not only has two cell phones, one for work and one for personal use, but the personal phone also has two SIM cards inserted.

The primary card is used to maintain personal contact and is linked to important platforms such as the personal income tax app, while the supplementary card is specifically for online shopping.

When shopping online, I never leave my real name or detailed address. This way, even if my phone number is exposed, I won't be bothered because it's easy to change my number.

She didn't buy it online, so it must have been sent to her by someone else.

Who sent it?

Only if someone else sends it to her but doesn't know the number of her supplementary card will they follow the unspoken rules of the industry and send it directly to Aunt Wang.

Online shopping has been around for so many years, and Aunt Wang used to help receive packages when she was employed by others. Today, she keeps getting calls from delivery companies, and she knows exactly what's going on.

"The person had a very heavy accent. I asked them, and they answered, but I couldn't understand them very well."

"It's alright, I'll talk to the logistics department later and ask them to bring it up when they go down the mountain to buy supplies."

Hearing her say that, Zhuang Xiaotong and Niu Lili breathed a sigh of relief, which made Gu Lanxi laugh.

"I know you two are very scared. It's already a great achievement that you were able to get up the mountain safely. You're unfamiliar with the area, so why would I let you go pick up the package?"

As for Aunt Wang, she was responsible for feeding the boss three meals a day on time, and she also suffered from motion sickness, so it was impossible to let her go.

"The ingredients here are limited, so I can only cook some home-style dishes. Fortunately, there is a pond at the foot of the mountain. When I went to buy fish this morning, I saw that a duck shed had been set up there. I have already soaked the kelp. I will go down and buy a duck to make soup. I will add some dried tangerine peel and barley. It will help to remove dampness, strengthen the spleen, and taste good."

When they arrived, the two of them packed four large suitcases. In addition to their personal belongings, two of the suitcases were filled with various dried goods.

In addition to dried vegetables such as kelp, wood ear fungus, and shiitake mushrooms, there are also medicinal herbs for making soup, such as dried tangerine peel, five-finger peach, and poria cocos.

As for the red beans, black beans, mung beans, and Job's tears used for cooking, they were all purchased and brought up the mountain by the logistics department.

Kaiyuan County has inconvenient transportation and is an inland city. Coupled with the hot weather, the most difficult thing these past two months has probably been not being able to eat fresh seafood.

At noon, Aunt Wang cooked a pot of red bean and brown rice, stir-fried two kinds of seasonal vegetables, and the main dish was a braised carp.

Gu Lanxi loves soup. She's been up the mountain for three days and is quite happy to hear that there will be duck soup tonight.

"Aunt Wang's cooking skills are top-notch, her soup must be amazing!"

After lunch, Gu Lanxi went back to her room for a nap.

The logistics department purchased a large number of fans today, and Gu Lanxi's room was also allocated one.

The fan, hanging on the wall, swayed and blew towards the bed, while the white mosquito net fluttered back and forth, inexplicably easing the heat in my heart.

The package was sent by someone unknown. Gu Lanxi returned to her room and sent a message to Lu Nanting.

What did you send me?

Lu Nanting was having lunch at the hotel when he heard his personal ringtone and immediately turned it on.

[Finished work? What did you have for lunch?]

Aunt Wang sprouted a pot of bean sprouts as soon as she arrived. It's hot today, so they'll be ready to eat. She stir-fried them with chili peppers for a spicy and sour flavor, cooked some carp caught from the village, and also stir-fried a plate of garlic-flavored lettuce. Aunt Wang said she'll stew duck for dinner with kelp, dried tangerine peel, and barley.

Seeing that she had given such a detailed reply, Lu Nanting smiled and made a video call.

Gu Lanxi was alone and felt hot, so she took off her bra and was only wearing a thin camisole dress. When she saw him calling, she was startled and pulled the thin blanket over herself before answering.

This was the first time the two had video chatted after being apart for several days.

The presidential suite where Lu Nanting stayed not only had a dining room, but also a reception room, a large living room, and three bedrooms of different sizes.

The staff were tidying up the clothes for the evening's concert in the living room, while the three assistants, Zhang Mingyuan, and the five of them were having dinner in the restaurant.

I thought it wouldn't be a big deal to make a video call in the middle of the day, but when the video connected, I saw that the other person's shoulders and chest were so white they were almost blinding.

Lu Nanting put down his fork, covered his phone screen with his hand, and ran quickly back to the master bedroom before whispering to her:
"Why aren't you dressed?" The slip dress she was wearing to sleep in was very loose. She had just bent down to pull the blanket up when the shoulder strap slipped down. Before she could pull it up, the more completely the blanket covered her, the more it looked like she wasn't wearing anything.

She was just wondering why he ran away for no reason, and when he opened his mouth and wrongly accused her, Gu Lanxi was very angry:
"What nonsense are you talking about? My clothes are on perfectly fine! Can't you see that?!"

Looking down, she realized it was indeed easy to misunderstand. Gu Lanxi huffed and puffed, pulling the blanket down a little to reveal a section of her skirt before asking him:
"I think I just saw you eating? What were you eating? Let me see."

She remembered that Lu Nanting had complained to her before about how bad the food was.

"It's just ordinary pesto pasta, topped with shrimp, peas, corn, carrots, and all of these are things you don't like."

"Ah."

Seeing that he was staring at her without blinking, Gu Lanxi silently pulled the blanket up to cover her shoulders.

Lu Nanting couldn't help but turn his head and chuckle.

"I asked you if you sent me anything? Aunt Wang said she received eight packages today."

"Eight? I only sent you tea and a tea set. That shouldn't be that many, right?"

"Could it be Sister Jiayi? She didn't tell me!"

Gu Lanxi couldn't help but scratch her head.

"Just think about it, who else knows your address?"

"The schedule is public information, you can easily find out by looking it up! Never mind, I'll talk to the crew later and ask them to help carry it up the mountain tomorrow. It's just a lot, it might take up a lot of space. It's hot now, we have to buy ingredients every day, I'm worried the crew's tractor won't be able to hold it all."

I hadn't thought about this before.

"This is a case of good intentions turning into bad things."

Lu Nanting frowned.

“It’s alright. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll make the trip myself. Aunt Wang gets carsick, and Xiaotong and Lili grew up on the plains and can’t walk on mountain roads.”

"I'll arrange for someone to come and pick up your package!"

"No need, I'll figure it out myself. I'm afraid people will laugh at me for making a big fuss."

"That's okay!"

As they were talking, Lu Nanting's staff urged him on, so Gu Lanxi quickly said goodbye.

In the afternoon, when we arrived at the filming location, Yang Hongyi was handing out dried meat.

"My mom is worried I'll get too thin from hunger in the mountains, so she's been bringing me food from afar. Oh, it's so hot, if something goes wrong, I'll be heartbroken. Please help me solve this!"

Seeing Gu Lanxi arrive, he immediately handed her a whole bag: "I lack acting experience and have relied entirely on Teacher Gu to guide me. I hope everyone will agree to give me a larger share, right?"

The lounge was bustling with activity, and Gu Lanxi gladly accepted.

Seeing the production manager come over, he hurried over to talk to him about asking someone to help him pick up the package.

The film crew consists of dozens of people, most of whom are young and almost all of them have the habit of online shopping. After being in the mountains for two months, they must have a need for online shopping.

The production manager stroked his chin and immediately made a decision: "Then let the driver make an extra trip every day just to pick up your packages."

After saying that, he immediately called his assistant to collect the pickup codes.

With so many people and so much stuff, be careful not to take the wrong thing.

The assistant called out several times in the crew's group chat, but since Aunt Wang was not a staff member, Gu Lanxi hurriedly asked her to send over the pickup code, and then forward it to the newly appointed courier manager.

After a lot of trouble, the matter was finally resolved.

Unexpectedly, when it was time to wrap up work, the tractor that was supposed to pick up the package came chugging back.

The truck was full of packages, all for Gu Lanxi.

There's nothing we can do; the other people don't know how good the crew's service is. They've only been here a few days and haven't had a chance to buy anything yet!
"Weren't there only eight?!"

When Gu Lanxi received the notification, she ran to the tractor and her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
"When we went down there, just one truckload had been put into the warehouse. The machine at the express station scanned it and retrieved it all for you."
