In the evening, after thinking about it for a whole day, Chen Xu knocked on Chen Yu's door. It was Zhong Xiaoqin who opened the door for him.

"Sister-in-law, long time no see. You are still so beautiful. This is the cosmetics you bought for me in Hong Kong. They are from Lancome."

The more gifts you give, the less blame you will get. As soon as he entered the door, Chen Xu handed over the gift.

"Come on, what are you bringing? What are these two boxes?"

Chen Xu would bring gifts every time he came to the door, and Zhong Xiaoqin got used to it.

"Bird's nest, one box for you and one box for my godmother."

Not long after arriving in Shanghai, he had the chance to visit Chen Yu's house for dinner. Zhong Xiaoqin's mother was also there, and Chen Xu shamelessly acknowledged her as his godmother.

"It's bird's nest again. You haven't finished eating what you gave last time. Don't buy it next time."

Although she said that, Zhong Xiaoqin accepted the things without hesitation.

"Where's my brother? Is he back?"

"He's cooking in the kitchen. Do you want me to call him out?"

After receiving the gifts, Zhong Xiaoqin felt that Gu Jia was right and that she really shouldn't get involved in the affairs of the two brothers.

"No, no, let him do his work. Don't go in, or you'll be bothered by the fumes."

When cooking in the kitchen, one must have a kitchen knife in hand. At this time, Chen Xu dared not to bring bad luck.

"Chen Yu, how is the food cooking? Chen Xu is here. Can we eat now?"

Zhong Xiaoqin didn't care about Chen Xu and shouted at the top of her voice.

"Almost there, there is one last dish..."

Both sides felt awkward. Chen Xu was afraid of being scolded by his elder brother, and Chen Yu was a little unsure about how to face his younger brother.

Ten minutes later, Zhong Xiaoqin, who was hungry, walked into the kitchen and broke this balance.

"You've done everything, why don't you go out?"

"It's too hot. It needs to cool down. It's just right now."

If Chen Xu is not afraid, why should I be afraid? After figuring it out, Chen Yu started serving the dishes.

"Brother, let me help you..."

The dinner was very harmonious, without any smoke of war as imagined. Only at the end did Chen Yu say something to Chen Xu.

"You are an adult now, and you understand some things even if I don't say them. Since it is inappropriate, you should tell others clearly as soon as possible and stop wasting others' time."

Of course, Chen Xu accepted it humbly: "Okay, brother, I understand."

.........

The next night, at Yeweiyang Bar, the place Chen Xu and Lu Bing frequented most.

"My heart is too messy and needs some space

If you understand, let me leave temporarily

My heart is too confused to dare to desire more love

I want to cry but I can't cry

My heart is too messy and needs some space

Did God forget to make arrangements for me?

My heart is too confused and I am afraid of the betrayal of love."

Chen Xu took Xiaogang's song "My Heart Is Too Confused" to another level. When Lu Bing arrived, a group of fans in the bar were already crazy about him. (I heard him sing Dusk and Blue Flower again last night. They sounded great.)

After the song was over, Chen Xu returned to his seat. A few little fans came over, but Lu Bing was faster and sat next to him.

"Big sister, first come first served, do you understand?"

Men have to line up to catch beautiful women, and the same goes for women to catch handsome men. The women who are preempted are not happy.

"Elder Sister? Little Sister, who do you call Elder Sister; look at what this is, Chen Xu, my man's name."

Lu Bing was very bold. He half-unbuttoned his white shirt, revealing the tattoo on his chest, and began to assert his sovereignty.

"Humph, you are so cruel."

Seeing that Chen Xu did not refute, the few people had to leave in disappointment.

"Sister, if your uncle, the station manager, knew about your behavior, my brother would probably have to go to the Sahara Desert to plant trees."

"Just don't let him know. Let's get to know each other again. Lu Bing - I'm also a non-marriage person."

Chapter 168 The plot begins (can’t code anymore, two more chapters)

Room 1306, Tomson One

A year ago, Chen Xu bought Lu Bing a house after she complained about the poor living conditions of the TV station's welfare housing. It was also because of this incident that she had the illusion that Chen Xu wanted to start a family with her, and then he carefully arranged a chance encounter with her uncle, the station director, in a restaurant.

The ending was of course tragic. Chen Xu, who had agreed to visit her that day, disappeared with her the next day, and this game lasted for more than half a year.

After a long separation and the passion, the two of them stayed together tenderly.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I was wrong last time..."

You have to admit your mistakes, and Chen Xu did a good job in this regard.

"It's okay. I was wrong too. I shouldn't have forced you to do something you didn't want to do."

When Lu Bing finished her senior year of high school, her parents divorced; when she returned from studying abroad, she found that they had each formed a new family and had children. In this way, she became the most redundant person, so she had no sense of belonging in her marriage.

"When did this happen?"

Touching the tattoo on Lu Bing's chest, Chen Xu asked in a low voice.

"Not long after you left, I found a female technician to do the tattoo. How is it? It looks beautiful, right?"

Lu Bing considers herself a calm and rational person, but every time she encounters people and things related to Chen Xu, this rationality will be broken, and she herself doesn't even know why.

"It's very beautiful, but don't do this again next time."

Only by not delaying or owing anything can one have a clear conscience. What Chen Xu fears most is that someone will talk to him about feelings; it is so much easier to talk about money.

.........

Grand Hyatt Residences

Gu Jia finally fulfilled the promise she made to herself three years ago and moved her family here, two months earlier than in the original drama.

"Congratulations, Brother Xu, we will be neighbors from now on."

The story continues, and this time it was Chen Xu's turn to congratulate Xu Huanshan and his family; he didn't buy any green plants, he just brought a bottle of wine and came to have a free meal.

"You? You only live here for a few days a year, and you still have the nerve to call me a neighbor."

Zhong Xiaoqin and Chen Yu have already arrived. They were also invited and had prepared an oil painting as a gift.

"Sister-in-law, I told you to move here a long time ago. As long as you convince my brother, I will pack up and leave immediately."

Chen Xu originally had no fixed place to live. After Lu Bing settled down in Tomson Mansion, he came to Junyue Mansion even less often. He said more than once that he wanted to give the house to Zhong Xiaoqin and the others, but Chen Yu refused to accept it.

"Forget it then. I heard from Gu Gu that you know a lot about oil painting. Look at the one I chose."

"The layout is okay, but the colors are much worse. It must have been painted by a student from an art academy."

As a professional in his previous life, Chen Xu has an instinctive recognition for oil painting.

"Nonsense, I picked it up at the gallery. The owner said it was painted by a young artist and is worth collecting."

Upon hearing that Chen Xu looked down on the painting she chose, Zhong Xiaoqin retorted unconvincedly.

"Young painters? Students who study oil painting in school are called young painters."

"Hey, you two, come over for dinner."

Gu Jia had already started serving the dishes, and Chen Yu called out to them.

"I just made something casually, I don't know if you like it or not."

Gu Jia prepared Western food, including steak, borscht, grilled sea bass, pasta, etc.

"Western food is good. This is the white wine my friend gave me. It has a very low alcohol content. Sister Jia and sister-in-law can also try it."

"Really? Then we have to taste it."

People are in high spirits when they are happy. Gu Jia looks particularly beautiful today.

"Gu Gu, I don't want it. I'd rather drink orange juice."

She hasn't been to the hospital for a check-up yet, but the two bars on the test paper make Zhong Xiaoqin afraid to try it.

"That's right. Minors are not allowed to drink alcohol. Let's drink orange juice with Xu Ziyan."

Zhong Xiaoqin is almost 30 years old, but her baby face always makes Chen Xu want to complain.

"Who did you say was underage? Chen Yu, your brother bullied me again."

"He said you are cute, let's ignore him and have some grilled sea bass."

Distance makes beauty, it is really true; because of Arshan’s long trip, the relationship between the two is much better than in the original drama.

"Then feed me..."

Underage means that she is young, Zhong Xiaoqin is not angry, but just took the opportunity to act like a baby to Chen Yu.

“This is not good…”

If it was at his own home, Chen Yu would probably just feed the baby, but at Xu Huanshan's home, he still felt a little restrained.

"Hey, hey, hey, there are kids here who haven't even gone to kindergarten yet. Is this appropriate for you to do?"

Chen Xu regretted it. He should have called Lu Bing as well. After all, everyone present knew about their relationship. However, Chen Yu would definitely be embarrassed if Lu Bing came, but it was better than being fed dog food by them.

"It's none of your business, but Zi Yan should be going to kindergarten in the second half of the year."

As Xu Ziyan's godmother, Zhong Xiaoqin knew this.

"Well, we plan to have him read Depu."

"Yeah, Depu is a famous school. Many of the children of the CEOs of listed companies in Grand Hyatt go to school there. It's not easy to get in.

But Zi Yan is so outstanding, there will be no problem."

Zhong Xiaoqin's life trajectory has not changed much, and she is still working in that property company.

"I think this kind of kindergarten with a high-end, international reputation is not good. Children in kindergarten should be allowed to play without worries. Learning is secondary."

Chen Xu’s life experiences in the previous world gave him the confidence to say this.

"Children who graduated from Kedepu Kindergarten have obvious advantages when entering elementary school, which is not available in ordinary kindergartens."

Strictly speaking, Gu Jia and Song Qian in the previous world are the same type of people; they have their own plans for life, and try their best to transform their husbands and children so that they follow their plans.

Of course, Gu Jia is much more rational than Song Qian, and her methods are more sophisticated.

"I'm just giving you a heads up, but I heard there are a lot of problems in this school. Zi Yan will be studying there in the future, so you'll probably be busy, Sister Jia."

"It's better to be busy. I'm a full-time housewife now, so I have plenty of time. As long as it helps Ziyan's future, I'm willing to be busy."

Since Gu Jia said so, Chen Xu did not continue to persuade her.

"Chen Xu, I toast to you. If it weren't for your help a year ago, I would definitely not have been able to get through that hurdle, let alone the good life I have now."

After three rounds of drinks, when the wine brought by Chen Xu was finished, Xu Huanshan opened another bottle of Moutai. After drinking the Moutai, he began to speak the truth after drinking.

“Brother Xu, I’ve told you so many times, that’s not helping, that’s investing;

I invested in the company because I was optimistic about your ability; you didn’t let me down. In just over a year, our company’s assets have multiplied several times. It was you who helped me.”

Everyone carries the fancy sedan, although that's the situation, but Chen Xu is very considerate of Xu Huanshan's feelings.

"I'm just a technician. I don't know how to be a boss, but Gu Jiafei asked me to be the boss."

Too much talk leads to mistakes. The drunk eldest son started complaining about his mother.

"Brother, you've drunk too much."

"I really envy your current life. You can do whatever you want, without any restrictions, and no one can control you..."
