Lu Shao is cunning; Miss Nan has fallen for his tricks again.

Chapter 21 Xinghe Media
Nan Xu lay down on the bed after taking a bath. By the time Lu Zhiyan came out of the bathroom, Nan Xu was already asleep.

Lu Zhiyan gently lifted the blanket; Nan Xu had her back to him. Lu Zhiyan looked out the window at the moonlight shining on Nan Xu's face.

He gently pulled the blanket up a little, then put Nanxu's hand under the blanket and pulled her into his arms.

Nan Xu sensed Lu Zhiyan's movement, let out a soft moan, and snuggled into Lu Zhiyan's arms.

Lu Zhiyan carefully held Nan Xu in his arms, as if he were holding a priceless treasure.

SFM Bar
Shu Youli was drinking alone in a private room on the second floor. Ling Shu pushed open the door, and Shu Youli raised his eyelids slightly before picking up the glass on the table and continuing to pour himself more wine.

Ling Shu stepped forward to dissuade him, saying, "Alright, Youli, drink less." As he spoke, he reached for the wine glass in Shu Youli's hand.

Shu Youli deftly dodged Ling Shu's hand. "It's none of your business."

Ling Shu didn't want to bother with Shu Youli's appearance.

He really looked down on someone like Shu Youli who gave up on himself because of a woman.

What a coward! If you like something, you should go for it, instead of sitting here drinking alone.

In fact, Ling Shu was unaware that Shu Youli had already been rejected by Nan Xu.

Ling Shu stopped trying to persuade him and turned to leave the private room to go to the restroom.

Ling Shu lit a cigarette and held it between his fingers, then dialed Zhou Zan's number. The call was answered quickly.

"Hello? Ling Shu, is there something you need so late?" Zhou Zan's soft voice came through.

Zhou Zan just came out of the bathroom and was applying body lotion.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if you're free tomorrow, how about we have lunch together?" Ling Shu took a deep drag on his cigarette.

It's good to hear the sounds.

Zhou Zan thought for a moment, and since there shouldn't be anything else going on tomorrow, she said, "Sure, just send me the time and address then."

"Hmm, did you hang up?"

"Okay, goodbye." Zhou Zan hung up the phone without hesitation.

Ling Shu stared blankly at the phone that had been hung up.

Why did he hang up after only saying a few more words?
Lin Family Old House
Lin Jianyuan and Lin Zhengyu stood on the balcony smoking.

"Brother, what do you think of that Lu Zhiyan?" Lin Zhengyu asked slowly.

Lin Jianyuan took a drag of his cigarette and spoke after a while, "I think it's pretty good."

Lin Zhengyu glanced at Lin Jianyuan but didn't say anything.

The people trained by the Lu family can't be too bad.

Moreover, Lu Zhiyan now controls the entire Lu family. His abilities are beyond question.

But Lin Zhengyu was still worried: "Will Ah Xu be happy if she really marries him?"

"Probably, since I genuinely like him." Lin Jianyuan put the cigarette butt into the ashtray.

He rarely smokes, only a few cigarettes when under a lot of pressure.

“I still think it’s wrong to marry up. Marrying into the Lu family would indeed be a step up for me.”

Although the Lin family is considered to be at the pinnacle compared to other wealthy families, it still lags behind the Lu family in some respects.

Lin Jianyuan sneered, "My aunt marrying Nanshan can hardly be considered marrying up. Is she happy?"

At this point, Lin Zhengyu clenched his fist. "That Nanshan, don't let me run into him. If I do, I'll punch him to death!"

Lin Jianyuan shook his head. "It's clear that happiness has nothing to do with marrying up or marrying down. What matters is two people who truly love each other."

"Besides, if things really get out of hand, Ah Xu will have us to back her up."

"Even if I have to leave with nothing, I will still rescue her from her misery."

"So don't worry about it." After saying that, she patted Lin Zhengyu on the shoulder. "It's getting late, get some rest."

Meanwhile, Nan Xu, who was sleeping soundly at home, had no idea that Lin Zhengyu and Lin Jianyuan had already prepared for the worst.

Even if she is unhappy in the future, her brothers will support her.

The next morning, Lin Zhengyu sent Nan Xu a message, reminding her not to forget to look for someone today.

Nan Xu was lying in bed playing on her phone when she saw a message from Lin Zhengyu, and then she remembered something.

A person who is only beautiful but has no talent is just a pretty face. So she decided to wait outside the Communication University of China and see what would happen.

Having a special skill doesn't necessarily mean you have some acting ability.

Considering all of this, the Communication University of China seems like a good choice.

Nanxu: We all overlooked something yesterday.

Lin Zhengyu stuffed the bread in his hand into his mouth and typed quickly on the screen: What did I overlook?

Nanxu: We not only need to be beautiful, but also talented.

Lin Zhengyu suddenly realized.

Yes, we can't just look at the surface and ignore the substance. Lin Zhengyu: Right, right, Ah Xu, you're so thoughtful. So... do you have any good ideas?
Nanxu replied: I'll go to the Communication University of China today and see if there's anything suitable. I'll leave my phone number if I find one.

Lin Zhengyu and Nan Xu made the decision on the spot. Lin Zhengyu went to register the company, and Nan Xu went to the Communication University of China to sign people.

Lu Zhiyan watched Nan Xu and Lin Zhengyu chatting animatedly. He then snuggled closer to Nan Xu.

Lu Zhiyan was shirtless, his skin pressed against Nan Xu's, feeling her body temperature.

Nan Xu felt her face turn slightly red, as if she were about to ripen.

Looking at Nan Xu's flushed face, Lu Zhiyan couldn't help but smile.

Why do I still blush so easily after all these times?

Nan Xu pushed Lu Zhiyan aside, got up and gathered the pajamas and robe that had fallen onto her arm.

"Alright, alright, get up quickly. You have to go to work later." With that, she quickly threw off the covers and got out of bed.

Lu Zhiyan turned over and looked at the ceiling, not wanting to go to work.

At 7:30, the two sat down at the dining table to eat breakfast.

Nanxu didn't have much of an appetite in the morning, so she just drank some plain porridge.

Lu Zhiyan, as always, had a cup of coffee, two slices of bread, and some fruit.

Upon learning what Nanxu was going to do today, Lu Zhiyan asked, "Are you sure you can manage by yourself?"

Nanxu paused in her porridge-eating motion with a spoon. "Why not? I'm twenty-five this year, not fifteen."

Who do they look down on? Day after day.

Nan Xu snorted coldly.

Lu Zhiyan sighed, "I can't recognize a kind heart."

"Why are you like a firecracker? You ignite at the slightest touch?" Lu Zhiyan said calmly.

Nan Xu paused in her scooping of porridge. Yes, she used to have a pretty good temper.

"I don't know. Maybe it's because you spoiled her." Nan Xu started talking nonsense.

Lu Zhiyan's eyes held a hint of a smile. If it was his way of spoiling her, then that was fine too.

So what if he has a bad temper? He's her source of confidence.

After dinner, Lu Zhiyan wanted to give Nan Xu a ride to the Communication University of China, but Nan Xu disagreed.

She'll have to take a taxi back, which is quite troublesome; it's much more convenient for her to drive herself.

Lin Zhengyu had just started the car when he realized he had forgotten to ask Nanxu Company what its name should be.

He and Nanxu each own 50% of the shares, so the company is considered to belong to both of them. The name of the company will also need to be discussed with Nanxu.

Then Lin Zhengyu pulled out his phone from a pile of documents and called Nan Xu.

At the same time, Nan Xu had just walked to the entryway cabinet to change her shoes when she answered a phone call.

"What's wrong?" Nan Xu took out a pair of black high heels from the shoe cabinet.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just wanted to ask what your company's name is?"

Without even thinking, Nan Xu said, "You decide."

Lin Zhengyu was taken aback. Was it really that hasty?
Let him decide?

"Okay then. I've made up my mind." He then hung up the phone.

Lin Zhengyu had no clue either. Oh well, he'd just take the first and second characters he saw when he went out as the company name.

Lin Zhengyu started the car, and as soon as it left the old house, he couldn't wait to look around.

The name of the new company? He'll have to take a good look at it.

A barbecue skewer shop with scattered stars? The new company is called Stars? That sounds so low-class.

Lin Zhengyu pursed his lips. No way.

Let's wait and see. Hefeng Flour Shop?

Lin Zhengyu shook his head; it didn't suit his taste.

Looking further ahead, it became increasingly ordinary and ubiquitous.

What about Xiao He's breakfast shop, Lao Wang's hardware store, Niu's mutton offal soup...?

The further I read, the less I wanted to name it.

In the end, I simply chose the first two shops and took the first character from both: Xinghe.

Lin Zhengyu silently recited it a few times, and it went fairly smoothly. So he decided on it.

Beijing Star Media Co., Ltd.
