Wu Mangmang looked down at his clothes and shoes, then looked at his face on his phone. He had been cramming for the past two days and felt as if he was back to the state before his final exams in college. His hair was now so shabby that he had to use a small clip to prevent his bangs from hanging down and covering his eyes.
Overall, she looks like a middle-aged lady shopping in the vegetable market.
"Am I going to go like this?" Wu Mangmang looked at me with an expression that said, "You might as well be struck to death."
"I haven't even done my hair yet." But if I start doing my hair now, there will definitely not be enough time. "Can't we make an appointment tomorrow?"
Lu Sui was silent for a moment, then replied: "You look more homely this way."
Wu Mangmang blinked her eyes. With her average IQ, she couldn't even figure out the positive or negative connotations of the word "home."
Because it was already late after the exam, and there was a traffic jam, and the fog was so thick that I couldn't get off the car to get some clothes, so I could only go to see Lu Jianan wearing snow boots.
When Lu Jianan saw the thick fog, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Sui.
This little girl is really young. Although she is not too young, she looks so delicious.
What you wear is a mess and has no order, but even so you still find it pleasing and beautiful.
She is a beauty who is especially favored by God.
It’s a pity that Lu Sui was able to do that.
Lu Sui said to Lu Jianan, "Forget to go back," meaning that you shouldn't be fooled by this girl's appearance.
At that time, the colorful fog successfully deceived Lu Sui.
At this moment, she began to pretend to be innocent and deceived Lu Jianan again.
But Wu Mangmang had to pretend to be innocent. The other party was Lu Sui's elder, and Lu Sui's parents had passed away. For Wu Mangmang, meeting Lu Jianan was no different from meeting his parents.
"I wanted to invite you a few days ago, but Lu Sui said you were taking an exam, so I changed it to today. What are you taking the exam for?" Lu Jianan asked with a smile.
It's not shameful to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and it can even be considered an honor. However, in front of Lu Jianan, Wu Mangmang always felt it was a little difficult to talk about it.
The Lu family all graduated from top foreign universities, and domestic graduate students seem to lack the level compared to them.
It turns out that education must be more important than national prosperity.
"Graduate school entrance examination." Wu Mangmang said.
Lu Jianan smiled and said "Oh", and after a moment he added: "That's good, reading can cultivate one's character."
Then Lu Jianan asked about Wu Mangmang's major. After hearing that, his smile brightened a lot. "This major can indeed only be studied in China. There happens to be a New Year auction in this field next week. If Mangmang is interested, why not go with me."
Lu Jianan kept leading the topic to places that Wu Mangmang was familiar with, and Wu Mangmang was very grateful.
Her husband's surname is Chen. He is a big businessman, but he is very gentle and kind, and has a sense of humor.
There was a lot of laughter and conversation during the meal, and even Lu Sui had a smile on his face the whole time.
The topics men talk about are nothing more than economy, politics, and future development trends.
Although Chen Shuming spoke mostly, Wu Mangmang could tell that he seemed to be particularly concerned about Lu Sui's opinions.
Of course, such a family dinner will inevitably mention various relatives. Wu Mangmang only then learned that Lu Sui has two aunts. One is currently visiting abroad, and the other is married overseas. Of course, it is also a strong combination.
Lu Sui also has an older sister who also married abroad. The other party's family was known even to Wu Mangmang, who didn't care about politics and economics.
The more Wu Mangmang listened, the more she felt like Cinderella.
In fact, these are just relatives of the Lu family.
As for Lu Sui’s maternal relatives, he actually met one of them tonight.
The person who heard that Lu Jianan and Lu Sui were having dinner in the restaurant came over on his own initiative.
"Your aunt just happened to come here to eat as well." Lu Jianan said to Lu Sui after listening to the waiter's words.
Lu Sui's aunt Wu Mangmang had met her at the dance, but she left a deeper impression on her daughter Wu Mangmang, the one who said she was a peripheral girl.
After Zhu Xin took her seat, her attitude towards Wu Mangmang was not friendly.
In fact, it’s not her fault. Wu Mangmang herself felt like a peacock joining a flock of phoenixes.
"Last time on the yacht, weren't you Shen Ting's female companion?" Zhu Xin asked impolitely.
"Xinxin." Yu Yu scolded in a low voice.
Everyone knows about the relationship between Shen Ting and Lu Sui. It is disgusting to hear that his current girlfriend is his good friend's ex-girlfriend.
Unfortunately, the topic didn't seem explosive enough, and everyone present didn't even change their expressions.
Wu Mangmang wanted to respond to Zhu Xin for Lu Sui's sake, but Lu Sui spoke first, "Aunt has an appointment with someone to have dinner here today?"
Meng Yu smiled tactfully and pulled Zhu Xin up, "Well, your uncle will be here later. He is going to discuss the marriage with Haoming's family. We will go over first."
Lu Sui nodded.
"Xinxin was spoiled by Meng Yu." Lu Jianan commented to comfort Wu Mangmang after the mother and daughter left.
When Wu Mangmang walked out of the restaurant, she couldn't help but take a deep breath. The feeling of being held and cared for by Lu Jianan made her feel a little breathless.
In fact, Wu Mangmang soon realized this point even further.
It seemed easy to have a casual relationship with Lu Sui.
But things were completely different after Christmas dinner.
Invitations came in like snowflakes.
And Lu Jianan appeared in her life for a long time.
It made Wu Mangmang feel like she was taking a one-on-one tutoring class for wealthy brides.
Lu Jianan and Lu Sui are really a pair of family members.
On the surface, they appear to be satisfied with everything about you, but then they use hidden means to change you.
Unfortunately, in this situation, Lu Sui couldn't help at all.
Because the social circles of the host and the hostess are like two completely different worlds.
Lu Sui is busy riding horses, playing ball, sea fishing, playing cards...
Wu Mangmang has to participate in various salons, attend auctions and art exhibitions, and is even recommended by Lu Jianan to be a committee member of a women's charity foundation.
The next step Lu Jianan asked her to make sure to join some art council.
In short, in just a few days, Wu Mangmang had several more titles and was busy doing her hair and facials and various social engagements.
Wu Mangmang feels that she is as busy as Obama, and she deeply feels that even if Lu Sui cheats on her in the future and keeps a lot of mistresses at home, she will not have the energy to take care of him.
Because Mrs. Lu is more like a high-paying and high-pressure job.
So as soon as New Year's Day was over, Wu Mangmang couldn't wait to end his holiday and go back to work.
After making the comparison, she felt that this kind of nine-to-five job that allows you to have two days off a week to look forward to is simply the best job in the world.
Even Ms. Nie Jingjing has become much cuter, because her methods of quarreling are so despicable. After Wu Mangmang has seen high-end green tea and white lotus, he only thinks that Nie Jingjing is cute and straightforward.
Lu Sui flew to South Africa after New Year's Day and didn't come back until the New Year was approaching.
What Wu Mangmang didn't expect was that after she went to work, Lu Jianan didn't let her go.
In the evening, she has to learn French and Spanish from scratch. These are the teachers hired by Lu Jianan for her. It is said that she will also learn Japanese, German and other languages in the future.
There are various etiquette classes, flower arranging, and painting on weekends. You don’t need to be proficient in them, but you must be able to appreciate them.
Even if Ms. Liu wants to see Wu Mangmang, she now has to make an appointment with Cathy first.
I forgot to mention that Cathy is Wumangmang's new assistant, the type who is in charge of everything.
Cathy has two assistants and the maid Annie, so Wu Mangmang can't even fit in a car when he goes out.
However, every time Lu Sui called back, the calls were extremely short, as if someone was always looking for him.
It made Wu Mangmang feel that being a man was useless.
During this period, Wu Mangmang met Wu Yong once, and this was a time she had squeezed out from Cathy's schedule.
When he arrived at Wu Yong's place, Wu Mangmang did nothing but simply took a nap.
"I think I don't need to consult you in the future, Dr. Wu. I sleep very well now. I can fall asleep while standing. I haven't had an attack for a long time." Wu Mangmang said.
Supported by a woman's huge vanity, Wu Mangmang would never go crazy in front of so many women watching the fun.
"Mangmang, you are unhappy." Wu Yong looked at her and said only one sentence.
Wu Mangmang thought for a moment and then said, "If I tell you that I don't have time to care about whether I am happy or not, would you believe me?"
"It's really funny to think about it. It turns out that being busy is really the best way to heal." Wu Mangmang murmured, "It's only today that I understand why my parents always seemed so busy when I was a child."
"You called me crying on Christmas Eve. What happened?" Wu Yong clearly felt that Wu Mangmang had collapsed at that time, but she changed the appointment time with the nurse the next day, and showed up today as if nothing had happened.
"It's nothing. At that time, I felt like my boyfriend wanted to break up with me, and I couldn't accept it. Later, we got back together. You know, love is like this, breaking up and making up again." Wu Mangmang said it indifferently.
Wu Yong felt extremely worried.
Wu Mangmang's first love was the one that happened when she was ill. Wu Yong knew a little about Wu Mangmang's rich love history afterwards, but none of them had caused her such huge emotional fluctuations, and the other party just seemed to want to break up.
"Don't worry, I know what you're worried about." Wu Mangmang stood up and comforted Wu Yong, "It's not that he's so special, it's just that I have a bad association."
On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, Mr. Lu, who had caused the fog to have bad associations, returned to the city after flying across almost all five continents.
The arrival time was one o'clock in the morning. Wu Mangmang insisted on going to the airport to pick up Lu Sui in person, and also ordered a huge bouquet of red roses.
The mist was holding the rose, covering her entire body.
When Lu Sui reached the exit and saw Wu Mangmang waving a bouquet of flowers at him, he felt helpless for the nth time in his life.
This time it was all because of the fog.
Wu Mangmang ran to Lu Sui and handed the rose to him like a treasure.
Lu Sui took it and sniffed it politely, "It smells good." Then he handed it to his assistant.
Peng Ze really didn't want to take on this hot potato, because when he walked out, everyone was looking at him, as if saying: Look, this guy is so stupid.
When Wu Mangmang found himself free in Lu Sui's arms, he immediately rushed over to him enthusiastically, hugged Lu Sui's waist and shouted, "You're finally back. I missed you so much that I went crazy."
The team that followed Lu on the business trip all had a conflicted look on their faces, thinking “I really want to watch it but I don’t dare to watch it.”
Because Boss Lu's temperament is such that if you get within one foot of him you'd feel like you're disrespecting his dragon body.
Today, Wu Mangmang just hugged him so casually in front of everyone, which was eye-opening for everyone.
Lu Sui wanted to push away the fog, but he was not used to expressing enthusiasm in front of others.
But because Wu Mangmang's words were so pleasing, it would be too discouraging to push her away at this moment, so Lu Sui could only raise his hand and pat Wu Mangmang on the back, "Okay, I'm back."
Wu Mangmang felt Lu Sui's stiffness and also slightly sensed his struggle, then she hugged her hands tighter and looked up at Lu Sui.
Lu Sui looked down and saw Wu Mangmang's pouting red lips. The chemical scent of lip gloss rose up. He lowered his head awkwardly and quickly touched Wu Mangmang's lips.
Wu Mangmang simply pulled Lu Sui's head down and kissed him twice on the cheeks, leaving perfect lip prints.
Then, before Lu Sui crushed her with his cold aura, Wu Mangmang decisively took two steps back, took out a tissue from her handbag and handed it to Lu Sui, motioning him to wipe it himself.
Peng Ze and the others were trying so hard to hold back their laughter that they choked on their saliva, and everyone pretended they saw nothing.
In fact, there were several couples reunited after a long separation in the airport reception hall, and the couple next to each other were kissing so hard that they almost put on a live performance.
People like Lu Sui were always so reserved. Wu Mangmang curled his lips, thinking that Lu Sui probably wouldn't be able to act out the drama of a reunion after a long separation.
As soon as he got on the car, Wu Mangmang couldn't help but complain to the road.
"You're finally back. Do you know how your aunt tortured me this past month?" Wu Mangmang said, "I wasn't this tired even during my college entrance exams."
"She hired..." Wu Mangmang counted on his fingers, "five, six, seven, eight teachers for me!"
"I have to get up before dawn every day to learn how to walk and eat. How bad must I be that I have to learn even these things from scratch."
After Wu Mangmang said a few words, he rolled his eyes five times.
"There are also two foreign language teachers. They said I need to be proficient in five foreign languages. The most outrageous thing is that they even hired a memory trainer to help me remember faces."
"This shows that my aunt likes you very much." Lu Sui finished the conversation with just one sentence.
