There was something extraordinary about Meng Chuyuan, which Mother Lu discovered through those few days of getting along with him.
It seemed like she was already inexplicably attracted to her before she even did anything.
Mother Lu was so fascinated that she almost forgot that she had made an appointment to have dinner with someone at noon.
She was watching the live broadcast, and just at the closing stage of Meng Chuyuan's game, a call suddenly came in.
In order to read the final result, Mother Lu even hung up the phone call from her little sister.
Live recording site
The director saw that the time was almost up, so he took the initiative to step forward and use a small speaker to speed up the progress: "I will give everyone the last ten minutes. After ten minutes, we will announce the end of the game."
Hearing the director's voice ringing in his ears, the guests who had not finished yet became anxious and cut randomly the remaining lines.
The situation on Meng Chuyuan's side was completely different from theirs. There was no tension on her face and her mentality was very stable.
Liao Jia had very little left to cut. In order to complete it within ten minutes, she was obviously in a panic. She also failed to control the scissors well. She accidentally cut over the end, and the rabbit's tail was completely cut off.
[I don’t know why, but I feel like Liao Jiake is like a newbie in life after being around him for a long time, and he feels like he doesn’t know anything]
[Coco’s performance in this episode is indeed not very good, maybe she is really not suitable for participating in reality shows]
[Sister Meng is amazing, she does everything in her own world, without being disturbed by the outside world, and she always delivers perfect results in the end]
[But isn’t this game more about speed? Sister Meng still has half of her hair left uncut. How can she win this way? 】
[I think it’s okay. Sister Meng’s speed is not too slow. You don’t want to think about the three pictures she drew earlier]
Mother Lu didn't answer the phone. The two ladies who had invited her to dinner waited at the door of the company for a long time, and finally came directly to see her.
Under the guidance of the company's receptionist, the two ladies came to Mother Lu's temporary office.
"Juan, why didn't you answer the phone?" The door was opened by one of the ladies. When she came in, she saw Mother Lu sitting on the sofa area, looking at her phone intently.
Mother Lu raised her eyes and said with a smile: "Here? Wait a moment, let's go after I finish watching the live broadcast."
The two entered the office, sat down directly, and asked curiously: "What live broadcast are you watching?"
Lu's mother said bluntly: "My youngest son and eldest daughter-in-law's variety show."
"What kind of live broadcast did I think it was? It turned out to be that one. I followed one episode earlier, and the two of you were scolded terribly."
In the past few years since his debut, Lu Jinsen has not had any outstanding works, nor has he left any impressive roles.
However, he is handsome and tall, and has completely inherited the good genes of his parents.
Later, the company gave him external packaging and all resources were invested in him. At that time, some companies were trying to support him, and he frequently brushed his face in front of the media, and he became famous for a while with his outstanding appearance.
It's a pity that he is famous for his reputation. He debuted at a relatively young age and doesn't know how to behave. He can easily offend people by speaking upright. He has a bad temper and easily gets emotional. He doesn't have that sense of propriety.
Lu Jinsen particularly hates fans who have no sense of boundaries, but he is not good at expressing himself, so he has ruined a lot of popularity among passersby.
As a pure vegetarian, Meng Chuyuan will inevitably be punished when she appears on a variety show, not to mention that everyone knows nothing about her, and her mindless behavior will also have a group effect.
"What are you scolding?" Mother Lu sounded a little confused.
She just watched it for a while and felt that the comment section was quite normal and she didn't see any curses.
The lady came over, raised her hand and put her hand on Mother Lu's shoulder, and said sarcastically: "Juan, you are so confused. How can we let them record a program together? It's not nice for my sister-in-law and brother-in-law to hear about it. This Aye is on a business trip." No, you are already a lot older, why are you still letting young people do whatever they want?"
Mother Lu listened to her long talk, and finally summed it up: "You just want to be immoral."
The lady's face turned livid after hearing this, and there was an air of embarrassment in her brows. She didn't dare to say it openly, and she didn't expect that Mother Lu would see through it.
Mother Lu suddenly moved her phone over and showed it to the lady. She couldn't help but defend herself: "Although it is true that they have different identities, do you think there is something wrong with them?"
As a mother, if she had this idea and prevented them from appearing on the show again, then she would be the abnormal person.
"I saw it said so on the Internet, so I'm just here to remind you, please calm down."
Mother Lu rolled her eyes and said dissatisfied: "Can you believe what is said on the Internet? They also said that the poor Lu family can only eat steamed buns for three meals. Have you seen that my family eats steamed buns for three meals?"
The two ladies didn't answer the question, and they didn't expect that she, who usually didn't have the upper hand with her words, was actually quite clear-headed.
Seeing that they were speechless, Mother Lu lowered her eyes and continued watching the live broadcast.
In the last three minutes of the competition, Meng Chuyuan folded the overlapping parts of the paper-cut so that he could complete two cuts at the same time.
After using this method, Meng Chuyuan's speed also accelerated a lot.
She had already put down the scissors when the director announced that there was one and a half minutes left, and it didn't take long for the other two groups to stop as well.
The director walked into the live broadcast room with a small speaker, his hands behind his back, as if he was leading an inspection, and went to three groups of guests to watch all their works.
Qi Zhan's group only cut one complete piece. The rabbit ears were cut into uneven sizes, and other hollow decorations were not properly processed. When you pick it up, you will find that it has been cut apart.
Liao Jiake's cut was very rough, the rabbit tail was gone, and the little nose was not visible. Liao Jiayan's cut was slightly better, at least it looked stylish.
The director passed by and took a quick look, with disappointment in his eyes.
He gave enough time for the guests to cut a piece of paper. It was not a physical job, and it did not require exposure to wind and sun. I didn't expect that the result would be so perfunctory and obviously not treated with care.
The director walked over with disappointment in his eyes, and when he came to Meng Chuyuan and the others, the light in his eyes suddenly lit up again.
Because he saw a complete and decent paper-cut, the paper window grilles that Meng Chuyuan chased out in a hurry, neither the rabbit nor the surrounding complicated decorations had any trace of being destroyed by the scissors.
Lu Jinsen was the first guest to enter the paper-cutting industry. He had plenty of time, except that there were many corners cut out, which affected the appearance.
The director finally came to Tingjiu. Tingjiu held his own paper-cut in both hands and handed it over diligently: "Director, look at what I cut."
"Not bad." The director nodded with satisfaction.
Both Tingjiu and Lu Jinsen's cuts were not smooth enough, and the corners that needed to be changed tended to stick out.
The director took out the small speaker from behind and put it to his mouth: "I declare that the trio won today's paper-cutting competition."
Qi Yan's paper was not finished cutting or drawing, so their group ended up in last place, so the second place was naturally the twins' group.
[The sister group has the taste of a thousand-year-old dick, hahahaha]
[Sister Meng can win easily with her two younger brothers, she is very powerful]
[Xiao Jiujiu, what are you doing? If you don’t know your expression, I’d think you were giving it to the director]
[Brother Qi Zhen was dragged down by Qi Yan. He is so miserable for a man and so annoying for a woman]
On the other side, Mother Lu showed a happy smile after watching the game end and Meng Chuyuan and the others winning.
Mother Lu was afraid that the two ladies next to her wouldn't hear, so she turned up the volume as soon as the director raised the trumpet.
After the results were announced, Mother Lu smiled and said to them, "Look, these two of my family are so good."
The wife, who had been sitting there without speaking for a long time, suddenly asked curiously: "Where did you find this eldest daughter-in-law? I just watched a video, and everyone in the comment section was praising her."
Mother Lu narrowed her eyes and said, "I also want to know where Aye found his wife."
To be precise, Lu Qingye's life is between two o'clock every day. He goes to the company when he wakes up and goes home after work. He usually does not participate in gatherings of any size. He has not been in contact with any girl in these years.
Suddenly one day I called her and told her: Mom, I want to get married.
Mother Lu was not at ease at the time. She felt that it was normal for him to ask such a question at his current age, so she answered him casually: Just marry him if you want. He is such an adult, and he still told his mother that he wanted to get married...
At that time, Lu's mother was still laughing at Lu Qingye, thinking that he was like a child with no independent opinions, and he had to report to her if he wanted to get married.
Then within three days, Meng Chuyuan showed up.
Mother Lu was really frightened by his speed, so that day when he took Meng Chuyuan home for dinner, she was not prepared at all. Because her husband was away and no one in the family had the overall situation, she was a little embarrassed to come out to meet people.
"I'll take your daughter-in-law to meet you someday. To be honest, I've watched several videos and the comments below are all good. I'm really curious, is it really as good as they say?"
Mother Lu felt inexplicably happy. She smiled gently and said, "She will be back tomorrow night. I will take the time to bring her out for you to see."
——
It was almost time for Lu Qingye to get off work. He had finished the work he had delayed yesterday and the workload today, and it was rare for him to get off work on time.
When he came out of the company, his assistant happened to drive his car over.
It had been snowing all day, and a thick layer of white snow had accumulated on the ground. There were many pedestrians' footprints on it. Lu Qingye covered it and stepped on it to form his own route.
After the car door was slowly opened, Lu Qingye got into the car. Since the heater was on in the car, he quickly took off his windbreaker.
The assistant was still driving in front, and his eyes did not forget Lu Qingye behind him. After taking a few glances, he asked: "Mr. Lu, do you want to go back to the hotel after dinner? I found a Chinese restaurant nearby that tastes pretty good. Restaurant, do you want to try it?”
In this cold weather, he thinks it is best to go to a Chinese restaurant to eat, where he can also drink hot soup and taste hometown dishes.
Lu Qingye raised his head slightly, with a cold light in his eyes, and said calmly: "I don't usually pay attention to your work, but you know a lot about which restaurants are delicious."
"..." He secretly watched a variety show once, but he didn't expect it to be remembered by Lu Qingye for so long.
He pulled off the collar attached to his Adam's apple, and said in a low and hoarse voice, "Go and have a look."
"Okay." The assistant immediately changed direction and took him to a Chinese restaurant for dinner.
Lu Qingye hasn't eaten much since he came here. He has no appetite when he gets busy, so he often forgets to eat.
This restaurant is not too far from their company, but the location is slightly remote. People who are not familiar with the road conditions may not be able to find it.
It took them about five minutes to get there. There was no parking nearby, so they had to walk there after getting out of the car.
The assistant led the way, not forgetting to remind: "Mr. Lu, slide carefully."
After arriving at the restaurant, Lu Qingye chose a seat near the corner, and soon a waiter came over with a menu.
"Hello sir, what do you need?"
Lu Qingye just flipped through the menu casually. His posture gave the impression of a domineering president at work, and he had the aura of a leader that no one could ignore.
Seeing how seriously Lu Qingye looked at the menu, the assistant couldn't help but recommend it to him: "Mr. Lu, their coconut chicken and clay pot rice are pretty good."
After a while, Lu Qingye closed the menu directly and handed it to the waiter: "Then let's have claypot rice and coconut chicken, and another one of your signature dishes."
He couldn't eat that much by himself, so he asked his assistant to sit down and eat with him.
In about twenty minutes, all their dishes were served.
The assistant wisely served him a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him: "Mr. Lu, try it. It tastes really good."
Lu Qingye didn't pay much attention to what he ate. He picked up the bowl and the spoon next to him and took a small taste.
"..." This chicken soup is a bit oily and the taste is average. He really doesn't know what the assistant just said is so good.
Seeing that there was no expression on Lu Qingye's face, the assistant's heart suddenly beat nervously, and he asked curiously: "Doesn't it taste good?"
He put down the bowl and said softly: "It's okay."
It's not as delicious as the coconut chicken soup cooked by Meng Chuyuan.
The assistant twitched the corners of his stiff mouth: "Is that okay?"
He liked to eat here during his lunch break these days. He recommended Lu Qingye to come here because he thought the food tasted good. Unexpectedly, the only word he could give in the end was "okay".
Lu Qingye narrowed his eyes and said without changing his expression: "I've had better drinks."
In terms of cooking skills, if there was a comparison, he would definitely side with Meng Chuyuan.
Although he only drank it once, the taste stuck in his mind.
The assistant sighed softly: "Okay."
…
After dinner, the two came out of the Chinese restaurant. The street was deserted and there were no pedestrians. Under the illumination of the street lights, Lu Qingye's tall figure was reflected in the snow, so clear that his hair could be seen.
"Mr. Lu, there is a clothing store nearby. Would you like to go shopping and buy a few more sets of clothes?"
Lu Qingye put his hands in his pockets and said coldly: "No need."
His own company has a brand, so there is no need to buy clothes in physical stores outside.
Lu Qingye thought it was just an excuse for the assistant to go shopping.
"Why don't you go for a stroll? You have been working since you arrived and have no time to walk around. There are actually a lot of fun things nearby."
Seeing that he was unmoved, the assistant chattered beside him: "Take advantage of the free time now to go shopping and buy gifts for returning home in advance. Then we won't have to rush when we go back."
Forget about the male lead, please! ! I just celebrated my 22nd birthday a few days ago and I have never held a man’s hand. I’m not anxious. Why are you anxious? Besides, Sister Meng is already married. How can this husband run away?
I don’t ask for anything else when writing a book, I just want to be happy. I finally came up with a theme that emphasizes my strengths and avoids my weaknesses. Don’t force me to kneel down and beg you. There is a saying that things will fall into place when conditions are right. What should come will always come. The more you think about something, the more it will be. Do you understand that you have no whereabouts?
