When Zhuang Hong left the old house with his suitcase, Ling Chunuan was still leaning against the wall with a blank look on her face.
A week later, Gu Yao and Lu Jingrou returned from their honeymoon. They brought small gifts for their family. Ling Chunuan received a set of bone porcelain tableware. She loved it so much that she couldn't put it down.
"I knew you would like this." Lu Jingrou pushed Gu Yao and squeezed out a seat on the sofa between the brother and sister.
Ling Chunuan was picked up by Ling Yufeng. Ling Yufeng drove a light yellow Lamborghini and parked it at the entrance of the old house. He was wearing sunglasses and a flashy burgundy casual suit and leaned against the car door. His panicked look almost attracted the attention of the entire old town.
Ling Chunuan couldn't wait to find a scarf and wrap herself up. Reluctantly, she was stuffed into the car by Ling Yufeng. The car sped all the way. When they arrived at the Hanyan Villa, she was scared half to death.
The Hanyan Villa, known as the first villa in Lanjiang City, returned to its former liveliness because of the return of Lu Jingrou and Gu Yao. It was a summer resort. In addition to Gu Yao, who lived here all year round, Gu Yao and Ling Chunuan's parents also came back to stay for a period of time every summer to entertain their friends and their friends' children.
In Ling Chunuan's childhood memory, the Hanyan Villa was like a children's paradise.
Gu Yao took over his father's job early, so when there was no tiger in the mountain, the monkey became king, leaving a lot of room for the young children to use their imagination.
Every winter and summer vacation, Gu Yuechen became the king of the children here. Except for Ling Yufeng, who was her sworn enemy and had a brother, Ling Dongqing, who could betray him at any time, the others were all her subordinates. Lu Nanzhou was Gu Yuechen's advisor. He coerced the two younger brothers, Song Yanmo and Bai Jing, to form an army to fight against Ling Yufeng. He spent the whole summer in the villa.
In those memories of a flamboyant childhood and adolescence, Ling Chunuan was never there.
She seemed to be born with no sense of existence, living a life completely different from her brother, who became famous at a young age.
Beside her was the singing queen Lu Jingrou, who had just been promoted to sister-in-law. Her beautiful voice pulled back her thoughts.
"It took a lot of effort to bring this back. Your brother asked me to bring it back, but this thing is fragile. Who knows what will be a pile of broken porcelain pieces when it comes back? Finally, I forced your brother to carry it back...
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"Hey, don't call me sister-in-law. It's so old. Just call me sister like before."
"Sister."
"Hey, you're so obedient."
"How is that obedient? She's been silly since she was a child." Ling Yufeng was always sarcastic. This was one of the reasons why he and Gu Yuechen were at loggerheads for so many years.
Lu Jingrou rolled her eyes at him.
"Damn brat, shut your stinky mouth. If you don't know what to do, put down the model I brought for you."
Ling Yufeng was a model enthusiast. His family collected all the models of ships in the world. The one Lu Jingrou brought back for him was the one he had been looking for for a long time. When he heard this, he naturally begged for mercy.
"I'm wrong, okay, sister? Nuannuan is obedient. In the whole family, Nuannuan is the most obedient, okay? "
"This is the truth."
Lu Jingrou had a matter-of-fact expression. "By the way, what's going on with Chen and Nan Zhou? We agreed to have a family dinner today. We'll be eating in a while. The elders are all here. How can they not be here? "
Ling Yufeng was busy with the model in his hand and responded casually when he heard this.
"Dongqing went to the hotel to pick them up. They should be here soon. The two of them are staying a little far away."
"Hotel?"
Lu Jingrou's expression changed slightly. "What hotel are they staying at?"
The Lu family was in the center of Lanjiang City. Although Lu Nanzhou didn't come home often, there was still a place for him to stay at home. As for Gu Yuechen, needless to say, she grew up in Hanyan Villa. She had never heard of the two of them staying at a hotel in Lanjiang City.
Suddenly, a clear force came from her wrist. Lu Jingrou turned to look at Gu Yao and saw a complicated expression in his eyes. Only then did she come back to her senses.
She glanced at Ling Chunuan. "Nuannuan, do you know that Chen is back?"
Ling Chunuan nodded and squatted in front of the sofa, playing with the bone china cup in her hand.
"Yes."
"Then what about her staying at the hotel?"
"I know."
"Isn't that a bad idea?"
"I didn't let her stay at the hotel."
"Then shouldn't you try to persuade her to come and stay here? After all, she is your cousin. If your uncle and aunt hear about it, they will be unhappy. "
Ling Chunuan stopped touching the bone china cup.
Gu Yao glanced at Lu Jingrou and said indifferently.
"She doesn't have to say that."
The atmosphere became gloomy all of a sudden.
Even Ling Yufeng felt it. Lu Jingrou and Gu Yao both had bad tempers, and now their expressions were not good.
"Gu Yao, I don't have a problem with my brother staying at the hotel, but Chen is your cousin, right? Uncle and the others are all here today. If they ask about it at the dinner table, how are you going to explain it? "
"I don't think this matter needs to be explained."
Gu Yao's face darkened. "They are willing to stay at the hotel. If Nuannuan has the ability to force them to stay at the hotel, I will personally invite them back."
"Ahem …" Ling Yufeng suddenly coughed and pulled Ling Chunuan up from the ground.
"Um, Nuannuan, I have something to give you. Come with me."
The boys and girls who were busy unwrapping the gifts in the room all found an excuse to stroll out, leaving the awkward atmosphere in the room for the couple who had just returned from their honeymoon to solve it by themselves.
After everyone left, Lu Jingrou glanced at the door from the corner of her eye. After confirming that no one was there, she let out a long sigh of relief. Her gloomy face instantly brightened up and she said with a smile, "Your sister is so worried about you.
"You're really worried about your sister. Acting is really difficult. I think we can reject the movie that your agent gave us."
Gu Yao looked calm. "Someone has to force her. There will always be a place for her to hide. She doesn't know what she wants in this life."
"Do you think she will know when we quarrel?"
"And Yufeng."
"Damn." Lu Jingrou twitched the corners of her mouth. "I was wondering why this guy was going to pick up Nuannuan today. You arranged it long ago, didn't you? What else are you hiding from me? "
"…"
Ling Yufeng closed the door and waved her hand. "Sit down. Make yourself at home."
Ling Chunuan curled her lips, sat down on the bed, and leaned against the mattress with a pillow in her arms.
"This is my room."
"You are not coming back to live here, so I unilaterally declare that this room belongs to me."
"It's pink." Ling Chunuan glanced at the pink curtains and wallpaper and kindly reminded him, "And you have your own room."
"But pink is my favorite color. My room was renovated two years ago and my father painted it black and white. It's as ugly as a graveyard. It's not suitable for people to sleep in."
"…" Ling Chunuan smiled and said nothing.
"You have been absent-minded these two days. Tell me, who do you like? I will go and get him for you. How about it?"
