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

Chapter 214 The wedding date is set, and the bride is waiting in her maiden home.

Actually, Nan Xu was just being stubborn at the time. Although she had read the script, the investment was small, and she was afraid that many details would not be handled properly.

Fortunately, she trusted Zhang San, and Zhang San rewarded her handsomely.

Before investing in a drama series, she would read the script several times. If it wasn't good, she would immediately pass it over. The remaining ones were almost all high-quality works.

She trusted her judgment.

They subsequently invested in several variety shows, all of which received very positive feedback.

One morning, in the president's office of Xinghe Media

“I think it’s about time. The company’s cash reserves have exceeded my expectations. It’s time to start the ‘Intangible Cultural Heritage’ program.” Nan Xu leaned back on the sofa, leisurely sipping her coffee.

Lin Zhengyu looked up from behind the layers of documents. "There are still a few days until your wedding. Why are you worrying about this?"

"One more week." Nan Xu lowered her eyes and took a sip of coffee.

They lived together ever since she met Lu Zhiyan, and after they became a couple, they were practically husband and wife.

Calling it a wedding is just a formality.

She has always hated trouble. If she wanted to wear a wedding dress and have a wedding, Lu Zhiyan would buy her many wedding dresses and hold countless weddings.

It's less about giving them an explanation emotionally, and more about giving an explanation to outsiders.

Otherwise, in the eyes of outsiders, they would have some unspeakable reason, or that the two families were at odds and forced to separate. They had already made an official announcement before, and if they didn't get married, there would be no shortage of gossipy netizens talking about them.

Just hearing it is annoying.

"You know that too? Then why aren't you waiting to be a bride and are still worrying about company matters?"

“I have a share in the company, and besides, I don’t see any conflict between the two,” Nan Xu said calmly.

"I didn't say the two conflicted. I just wanted to remind you that you're getting married soon, so make sure you're in good shape. Don't let your dark circles be impossible to hide on the wedding day."

"Pshaw, no way. This is the last time I'll come to the company before my wedding. I'll stay home for the next few days. Keep a close eye on the company, and get that show on the agenda as soon as possible."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Nan Xu didn't linger and went straight back to the Lin family.

According to the wedding customs of Beijing, the newlyweds cannot meet in the week before the wedding, so she took her luggage and her baby back to the Lin family early this morning.

However, she did not inform Lu Zhiyan beforehand, but it doesn't matter much. Presumably, Cen Xi had already told Lu Zhiyan about the wedding customs.

There's no need for her to explain.

Uncle Wang moved his luggage into Nanxu's room on the second floor. The wedding day was still a few days away, but the Lin family had already started to decorate with lanterns and colorful decorations, exuding a festive atmosphere everywhere.

Nan Xu opened her suitcase and put her clothes in the closet. Just as she finished unpacking, Lin Jing Shu came in with two pieces of clothing.

"A-Ning, can you help me choose which of these two dresses is better? I'd like to wear it to your wedding," Lin Jingshu asked with great interest.

Nan Xu looked at the clothes Lin Jingshu was holding. One was a deep purple traditional Chinese-style cheongsam embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, and the other was a burgundy suit.

Both outfits had their own unique appeal, and Nanxu couldn't decide which one to choose for the time being.

"Mom, I think both of them are fine."

"Why do you say that too? I asked your grandma, and she said the same thing." Lin Jingshu looked at the clothes in her hands with a conflicted expression; she couldn't choose either.

"Since you can't choose, then draw lots. Whatever you get is fine."

"Okay then, you can take your time packing, I'll head out now."

When she left, Lin Jingshu thoughtfully closed the door. That evening, Nan Xu and the others enjoyed a pleasant dinner together.

Looking at Nanxu, Grandpa Lin sighed sincerely, "Ah, time really flies. I still remember clearly what A-Xu looked like when she was little, and in the blink of an eye... she's about to get married." As he spoke, his eyes became slightly moist.

Seeing this, Lin Jingshu quickly comforted him, "Oh, Dad, it's a marriage, not a sale to the Lu family. If you want to go home, you can go home. Look at you, you're even more reluctant than I am to leave."

"Of course, she's my only granddaughter, so naturally I cherish her."

"Alright, Mr. Lin, how old are you? Why are you still crying so much? The children are all here. Can't you just eat a proper meal? Huh?" Mrs. Lin was exasperated and casually slapped a tissue at Mr. Lin.

Nan Xu smiled, her heart overflowing with tenderness.

She has had many loved people since she was a child, and she would have lived a happy life even without Lu Zhiyan.

Lu Zhiyan's love was not unique to her, but merely an added bonus.

No sooner had she finished being sentimental than Nanxu's phone rang.

Lu Zhiyan worked all day, hoping to spend time with his wife after get off work. But when he opened the bedroom door, not only was Guai Guai not there, but even the clothes in the walk-in closet were much less.

Without the slightest hesitation, he dialed Nanxu's number.

"Hey, where are you? It looks like our house has been burgled. A lot of your clothes are missing, and Guai Guai is gone too." Lu Zhiyan threw his coat on the sofa and searched the whole house for Guai Guai.

Nan Xu felt a little guilty and dared not look them in the eye when she saw the gossipy looks directed at her by everyone at the table.

She got up, pulled out a chair, and left the restaurant.

Lin Jingshu knew at a glance that it was Lu Zhiyan calling. She calmly picked up the water glass beside her and took a sip.

"Who made the call?" Chen Hui whispered in Lin Jingshu's ear.

Lin Jingshu laughed and teased, "Looking at this, who else could it be? Lu Zhiyan, of course."

"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems our Ah Xu has him completely under her thumb," Chen Hui remarked.

Hearing Chen Hui praise Nan Xu, Lin Jing Shu was so happy she was practically wagging her tail in the air.

"Of course! Who could resist such an outstanding and beautiful woman like my daughter?"

"You, you get all proud and ashamed after just a few compliments."

"What's there to be ashamed of? Of course I'm proud of my daughter."

After leaving the restaurant, Nan Xu replied, "No, I didn't get robbed. I took my things back to my maternal grandparents' house. I'll be living here until I get married."

Are you going to be staying at the Lin family's house for the next week?
Lu Zhiyan on the other end of the phone felt like the sky was falling.

"Why? If there's anything wrong with the house, just tell me and I'll have someone fix it right away. Why did you just go home without a word? Are you really that willing to leave me?"

Nan Xu clicked his tongue impatiently. It seemed he hadn't listened to a word of what Aunt Cen had told him about wedding customs.

"The wedding customs in the capital state that you can't see each other for a week before the wedding. Didn't Aunt Cen tell you that?" Nan Xu patiently explained to him.

What? Not living together is one thing, but not even being able to see each other? What kind of ridiculous custom is this?!
Lu Zhiyan roared and protested in his heart.

"I don't want to, I don't want to not see you for a week!"

"Stop messing around. I didn't see you do anything when you were away on business for so long." Nan Xu said lightly.
