The Yuehu Villa in Sheshan, Shanghai, has winding paths and is surrounded by mountains and rivers. Gu Yu and Han Yimeng walked through the corridor surrounded by green plants and rang the doorbell.
After a while, an elegant and kind woman opened the door.
"Hello, Aunt Liu, I'm Gu Yu."
"Hello, aunt, I am Han Yimeng."
"You are here, please come in, please come in."
The two changed their shoes and walked into the living room. At this time, Lu Jiming and Ning Meng were chatting with Lu's father.
"Hello, uncle."
"Uncle Lu."
"When you come to our house as a guest, why don't you bring any gifts? You are Gu Yu, right? You are such a talented person. I hope you and Ji Ming will take good care of each other in the future."
"The first visit is as it should be, but I won't bring it next time."
"Haha, okay, Xiao Gu is very humorous. Xiao Meng, I'm back. It's been so many years since I last saw you. She's getting more and more beautiful. Why don't you bring something with you?"
"A little thought. I have been abroad for many years and I have always missed Uncle Lu."
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, by the way, let me introduce you to him, hehe, Ji Ming, this kid finally brought me a daughter-in-law.
This is Ning Meng, Ning Meng, this is Ji Ming's sister. Thanks to her care when she was a child, she later went abroad. "
Father Lu introduced the two of them with a smile, and the two women also looked at each other. Han Yimeng looked at Lu Jiming again and found that he had been paying attention to Ning Meng, with a trace of worry on his face, and smiled with relief.
"Ning Meng, please take good care of Mingming from now on. Mingming, you have to be kind to others. It's not easy for you to find such a good girl with your stubborn temper."
Han Yimeng said to Ning Meng with a smile, her face full of kindness.
"Sister Meng, don't worry, he and I are fine."
"Okay, everyone is here, please sit down and let's chat while eating." Aunt Liu saw that the time was almost up, so she asked everyone to go to the restaurant and take a seat.
The dishes on the table were a combination of meat and vegetables, and they were delicious in color and taste. Father Lu also opened a bottle of red wine that had been collected for thirty years. The smile on his face never broke. It was obvious that he was in a very good mood.
"Today is a triple blessing. I haven't been so happy for a long time. First of all, I want to welcome Ning Meng here as Mingming's girlfriend. Secondly, after so many years, I can see Xiaomeng again and see that you are all well. , I am very happy. Finally, I want to thank Xiao Gu. First, thank you for taking care of Ming Ming in business. Second, thank you very much for helping him and Ning Meng become a couple as a friend. Come, have a good day today and drink more. !”
Everyone also raised their glasses, and for a moment the atmosphere at the table was reunited and beautiful.
"Come, let's eat. Today, auntie is cooking all home-cooked dishes. I don't know if they suit your taste." Aunt Liu looked at Gu Yu and Han Yimeng and said kindly.
"After so many years outside, what I miss most is the smell of home. Thank you, auntie." Han Yimeng said softly.
"This is a warmth that no amount of money can buy. To tell you the truth, I am very envious of Brother Jiming and Ning Meng right now."
Aunt Liu was very happy to hear what Gu Yu and Han Yimeng said, with a smile on her face.
"That's easy to say. We'll come to our house to eat often from now on. You Aunt Liu can't do anything else, so there's nothing to say about cooking." Father Lu also said happily. As people get older, they all like to be lively.
"By the way, try the fermented glutinous rice soup I made. Xiao Ning taught me how to make it." Aunt Liu smiled and took Ning Meng's hand.
Everyone tasted it one after another and were full of praise.
"Well, it tastes good. Brother Ming will also have a good taste in the future."
Gu Yu took a taste and joked with the young couple. Ning Meng smiled shyly, and Han Yimeng also tasted a spoonful and nodded with satisfaction.
"Ning Meng is such a considerate child. Thanks to her, otherwise she wouldn't have come home."
Aunt Liu was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. She kept praising her and even served Ning Meng with vegetables from time to time.
"It seems that Ning Meng has taken control of Ming Ming. This is not easy. He has a particularly stubborn temper." Han Yimeng said softly to Ning Meng with a smile.
"No, no, he is usually very nice. Sometimes I get angry, but he is very patient."
Ning Meng and Lu Jiming looked at each other, and they smiled at each other, feeling the sweetness of being in love. The dinner table also became more relaxed, and we kept chatting about family issues.
"Xiaomeng, I see you are not young anymore. Have your personal problems been resolved?"
"You are a matchmaker, you worry about this and that?"
Lu Jiming was a little impatient when he heard this and felt that it was not good to inquire about other people's private affairs.
"Why are you talking to your father?"
"Uncle, I'm obviously just joking with you. At today's family dinner, we ate and chatted casually and happily."
Seeing that the father and son were about to have another conflict, Ning Meng quickly took over the conversation.
"Xiao Ning is right. Uncle just got used to it. I will pay attention to it in the future. Lu Jiming, I care about Xiao Meng, so don't interrupt."
Lu's father's tone and attitude towards Ning Meng and his son were like a different person. Lu Jiming couldn't help but rolled his eyes and didn't bother to talk to him anymore.
"Uncle Lu, actually I just broke up not long ago."
Han Yimeng replied softly, looking a little downcast. Everyone present was also stunned, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"Based on Sister Meng's conditions, people who want to pursue her will probably line up from Shanghai to the United States. Uncle Lu, how worried are you? Your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Besides, how can you know if you don't make one or two mistakes?" What does your Mr. Right look like?”
Gu Yu quickly spoke to calm the atmosphere.
"That's right, Xiao Gu is right. Xiao Meng, don't take it to heart. I'm getting older and I just like to talk about this. Come, let's have another drink together. Today is a rare day."
After everyone toasted together again, everyone in the field seemed to have forgotten the topic just now.
Father Lu took Gu Yu and Lu Jiming to chat about investment-related matters, and taught them his investment methods, asking them to pay more attention to environmental protection projects.
Han Yimeng also chatted with Aunt Liu and Ning Meng from time to time, but occasionally glanced at Gu Yu, her beautiful eyes were thoughtful, and she didn't know if she was touched by what she just said.
Soon, after the Lu family banquet, Gu Yu and Han Yimeng said goodbye to everyone in the Lu family and left, while Ning Meng and Lu Jiming were forced to stay.
On the way back to the city, there was a little silence in the Flying Spur. Gu Yu drove intently, while Han Yimeng looked out the dark window, his eyes blurred, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Gu Yu, can I still meet the Mr. Right? I'm already over thirty."
The soft voice broke the calm, and the resentment in the words shook people's hearts.
"Sister Meng, you have to say this yourself. How do you look different from a twenty-year-old girl? You are so beautiful and intellectual. That means I have Tiantian. Otherwise, I would start to pursue you crazily now. ”
Gu Yu was silent for a moment, and then spoke in a relaxed tone. Han Yimeng laughed softly after hearing this.
"Gu Yu, you really know how to please girls. I'm a little curious about what it's like for you to pursue girls."
"The kind that is shameless, stubborn, and can't be chased away."
"Then I really have to thank Tiantian, otherwise I would have had a headache."
Han Yimeng was so amused by Gu Yu that she temporarily forgot the pain of breaking up. Gu Yu sent her home and left with a few words.
After Han Yimeng closed the door and looked at the empty room, her mood returned to depression. She sighed softly, walked to the balcony, sat on the chair with her hands and knees, and stared blankly at the Huangpu River.
"Hello, Brother Jiming?"
"Well, don't worry, I just sent Sister Meng back."
"I hired a housekeeper and will go there every day, don't worry."
"Going on a business trip again? Alone?"
"Oh, are you on a business trip? What's the difference between this and your honeymoon?"
"Brother Ji Ming, you are really causing trouble for me alone. How can you bear it?"
"Okay, okay, I have a plan, you have to explain it to Tiantian for me, don't misunderstand me!"
"See you."
Gu Yu hung up the phone with his Bluetooth headset, frowned slightly, slowly parked the car on the side of the road, thinking about it, and after a while, dialed another number.
"Hi Smith, good morning."
"Dear Gu, calling so early can easily disturb my morning exercise."
Gu Yu laughed when he heard the panting sound of a big horse on the other end of the phone, and another high-pitched scream.
"Do you want me to give you some time?"
"I can only say that you are good at finding opportunities, and I will end it just in time."
"Okay, let's talk business. I'm here to give you RMB again."
"Haha, I love Chinese people. You are always generous and cheerful. What do you need from me?"
