Huayu: Live a carefree life

Two nights of passion.

Lu Jie's parents weren't fond of joining in the fun, and their main reason for coming to Beijing was to see their son.

So I only went to Tiananmen Square to watch the flag-raising ceremony on the morning of the 3rd.

Liu Haocun and Wang Churan, the two women, also accompanied Lu Jie and the elderly couple to visit several scenic spots, many of which were places they were visiting for the first time.

While shopping, Lu's mother also bought each of her two daughters a piece of jewelry as a gift for their first meeting.

Ms. Wang meticulously took Mr. Lu to buy the two portions for Xiao Hu and Yao Yao separately, instructing Lu Jie to bring them to the opening ceremony.

On the evening of the 4th, after sending their parents to the high-speed rail station, the three of them returned to Liu Haocun's home.

These past few days, Liu Haocun has finally experienced Lu Jie's animalistic physical strength.

During the day, she can take her parents sightseeing and eating, and at night she can still be energetic and keep them entertained until the early hours of the morning.

After spending four consecutive days crying together, Liu Haocun and Wang Churan developed a tacit understanding; they could exchange glances and know roughly what the other was going to do.

"Xiao Cun, how are things going with Aunt Lü and Uncle?" Lu Jie changed his mind before speaking, no longer calling Lü Shujuan by her name.

Even if you look down on them, they are still Liu Haocun's parents. Respecting them is respecting your own emotional investment.

Liu Haocun was thoroughly harassed for several nights in a row, and became even more attached to Lu Jie. "Well, my dad said he has made up for all the money and reached a preliminary understanding with the other party."

"My mom...apologized sincerely as you said, and my dad and both lawyers also filmed timestamped videos."

"My dad said something about my mom, um... I'm a little indignant..." Liu Haocun pouted, "But was it really necessary to film it?"

Lu Jie hugged her tightly and rubbed her head. "You're supposed to be in the entertainment industry, you know about Pan Yuemin and Dong Lianhua, right? And that 'You're so slutty' and Yao Dazui."

"Isn't it all just a matter of spreading rumors, and then basically ruining the careers of two men?"

"We're not afraid of the odds, but we're afraid of the worst-case scenario. What if you become famous later?"

"If your competitors want to sabotage you, and they go to great lengths to dig up this story about you, then embellish it and tell a tale, how would you explain that?"

"Having the video will at least reduce the pressure from public opinion a little, you understand?"

Liu Haocun naturally knew about those two things, and the thought of them happening to him was quite terrifying, so he couldn't help but shrink back.

Lu Jie gave her a loving peck, "But don't worry, now that you have me to help you, no one can hurt you."

"Tsk~ I hear you being all mushy as soon as we come out!" Wang Churan, wearing a T-shirt, sat down on the other side of Lu Jie.

After kissing Lu Jie, he laughed and said, "Xiao Cun, how about coming back to Shanghai with me for a few days?"

Liu Haocun shook his head, "I won't go this time. I happen to have a gig in Shanghai soon, so I'll come see you then."

"OK, I'll take you to Xintiandi then~"

Liu Haocun nodded happily, "Okay~"

Lu Jie hugged the two girls tighter. "This is so much better, so harmonious. Looks like I'll have to stack you two together more often~"

"Dream on!" The two women rolled their eyes at him in unison.

…………

The next day, at 7 a.m., the alarm clock rang.

Lu Jie rose from the gentle embrace, looking radiant. The two girls were still fast asleep in the Begonia Spring, having not even taken off their stockings from the last night's battle.

After washing up and getting dressed, I kissed them both on the forehead while they were still groggy from waking up. "I'm leaving now, the driver is downstairs."

"Hmm, Bye-bye, Ba~ Brother~" Liu Haocun unconsciously slurred again.

So she lightly punched him and scolded, "It's all your fault, you naughty brother, always wanting people to call you 'Daddy'~"

"Hehe, little Cun, go back to sleep for a while."

Lu Jie gently pinched Liu Haocun's nose, then hugged Wang Churan. "Be careful on your way back. I'll come to Shanghai to be with you after I'm done with this busy period."

"Brother, please be careful when you're working away from home too~"

"Okay, I'm heading out now, bye-bye."

"Bye-bye~" After waving goodbye, the two girls looked at each other and then lay down to catch up on their sleep.

…………

Lu Jie attended the opening ceremony of "Spirit Sword Mountain" in his capacity as Vice President of Tencent PCG Business Group.

Logically, he shouldn't have needed to attend the start of such a small project, but he had two women on set.

Even the two CEOs, Sun Zhonghuai and Gong Yu of Kiwi Fruit, came in person because of his attendance, which was a great honor.

Lu Jie brought two groups of eight bodyguards and two assistants this time. Half of them were experienced men mentoring newcomers to familiarize them with the work environment, which also served to bolster their presence.

After all, he's the vice president of Tencent's Penguin Business Group, so he has to maintain the proper image and prestige.

The group traveled by plane and then by car, arriving at the scene twenty minutes before the opening ceremony.

"President Lu." Gong Yu, who was chatting with Sun Zhonghuai, waved and greeted him when she saw him enter the rest area from afar.

With a professional smile on his face, Lu Jie walked over and politely shook hands with him. "President Gong, long time no see. Brother Sun, you're here quite early."

Sun Zhonghuai shook hands with him and joked, "President Lu, you're too kind. You're here today as my direct supervisor to guide our work, so of course I had to come early."

"Hey, stop teasing me. It's just a nominal position. Little Ma only gave it to me to trick me into accepting Weishi."

Sun Zhonghuai wanted to ask him about the short play, but considering that Gong Yu was there, he didn't say much. He just smiled and nodded and changed the subject.

The director and main actors also saw the several bigwigs from the investors here and confirmed that there were no media in the rest area.

Lu Jie then beckoned Xiao Hu, who had been eager to try, and Yao Yao, who was watching him tenderly, to come to his side. Xiao Hu immediately threw herself into his arms.

"Brother, I miss you so much~" Xiao Hu's intimate actions startled many people, including Zhu Yuanbing and He Wenjun, who had had feelings for her since the reading began.

Then I secretly rejoiced that it was just a thought and I didn't put it into action.

Lu Jie affectionately ruffled Hu Lianxin's hair, pecked her, and then beckoned Chen Yao to his side, introducing them, "Xinbao, Yaoyao, these two are President Gong and President Wang from Kiwi Fruit."

"Hello, President Gong, hello, President Wang~" Hu Lianxin, dressed in theatrical costume, greeted Chen Yao politely.

"These three are my colleagues: General Manager Sun, General Manager Han, and General Manager Juan," Lu Jie continued, introducing the Penguin trio.

Seeing the situation here, Yu Yatou, the boss of the male lead Xu Kai, who had specially brought Bai Lu to make connections, whispered.

"Kai Kai, I told you so, these two women have a close relationship with this President Lu."

"Yes, Aunt Yu, I remember everything you said. I've been very polite to them since I joined the crew."

Xu Kai smiled and nodded, glancing at the second male lead wiping sweat not far away.

"That Zhu Yuanbing is in trouble. On his first day on set, he tried to flirt with Chen Yao, but when that didn't work, he went to fawn over Hu Lianxin."

"Ha, people who can't figure things out won't go far here," Yu Yatou sneered.

Then he turned to the egret and smiled, "Egret, I'll find a chance to introduce you to her later, don't be nervous."

Bai Lu knew that Yu Yatou had brought her here specifically to meet this President Lu, so she took a deep breath, smiled, and nodded, "Don't worry, Aunt Yu, I'll be fine."

The opening ceremony was not complicated. After the host warmed up the audience and introduced everyone present, they began to offer incense and pray for blessings.

Lu Jie, Lao Sun, and Gong Yu did not go up to worship. Han Zijie and the others could handle this kind of work. Lu Jie also did not like praying to gods and Buddhas.

As the process continued, Han Zijie and Wang Xiaohui delivered opening remarks on behalf of Penguin and Kiwi respectively.

The director, screenwriter, original author, and several lead actors also gave brief interviews to the media. All the media present were arranged, and no one was foolish enough to ask irrelevant questions.

After the interview and receiving the opening bonus, the ceremony was basically over.

The main group split into two groups. Some people went to the film set with the director to shoot a scene. To bring good luck, they would usually choose very simple scenes to ensure a perfect shot in one take.

Those who weren't filming went to the hotel with Lu Jie and the other investors' representatives to prepare for a dinner party.
