My Mind Goes Straight To the Sea

Chapter 83 - new Year\\\'s gift



Time passed unnoticed in the busyness, Lu Jingyi rushed to finish the finishing work a year ago, and then led Yuyou home for the New Year.

“The Lu family has a lot of support. Every year on the third day of the new year, a party will be held in the old house. Relatives and friends of the Lu family, as well as some business partners will come to participate. There will be more entertainment at that time. Just smile, you don’t need to do anything else.” Lu Jingyi urged.

Yuyou nodded obediently.

Lu Jingyi added: “If you encounter any problems, be sure to tell me, don’t solve them secretly.”

Participating in a party is not only to exchange feelings and accumulate contacts, but also to compare, stand in line, show off and other factors. Xiaoyu has lived in a simple environment since she was a child, and Lu Jingyi didn’t want her to be exposed to these complicated things. But he planned to use this gathering to officially introduce her to everyone.

“Don’t worry, it’s not that I haven’t attended a party before, so I won’t embarrass you.” Yu You assured confidently.

Is this a humiliating question? Lu Jingyi looked at her helplessly.

“By the way.” Yu You suddenly asked, “Have you prepared a present for your aunt?”

“Mom doesn’t lack anything.” The Lu family welcomes them every New Year’s Eve, and it is rare to have a leisurely time. Instead, family members rarely send gifts.

“Even if you don’t lack anything, let me know.” Yuyou took out a gift box from his pocket, “Look, I’m ready.”

“What’s this?” Lu Jingyi took it and shook it up, not very heavy.

“My homemade beauty instrument.” Yuyou’s eyes were shining, and she seemed very satisfied with her work.

Lu Jingyi smiled: “Yes.” Although it’s a bit unconventional, this is Xiaoyu’s intention, and his mother will not dislike it.

“I think so too.” Yu You obviously didn’t understand the gift-giving style of wealthy families, but Lu Jingyi didn’t intend to remind anything. Anyway, her gift was for her mother, and it was harmless, but she really wanted to know what happened to her mother when she received it. expression.

Homemade beauty instrument, isn’t it a Sanwu product? Ha ha.

When the two came to the main house of the Lu family, Chu Lan received the news long ago and was waiting in the living room.

“Xiaoyu, it’s **** the road, come and sit.” She patted the seat beside her and greeted warmly, but turned a blind eye to her son.

“Auntie, Happy New Year.” Yu You handed the gift box to Chu Lanxin. She took it with a smile, and handed it to the housekeeper. She didn’t check it immediately. There were only some valuable things left and right, and it was enough to have this intention.

“Mom, Happy New Year.” Lu Jingyi slightly frowned and said hello.

“Your rooms are all tidied up, it’s the same two rooms as last time.” Chu Lanxin took Yuyou’s hand, looked up and down, and found that she seemed to be more beautiful than the last time we met. A bright aura, I can’t say what it feels like, it’s just pleasing to the eye.

“Xiaoyu is in a room with me.” Lu Jingyi instructed the housekeeper, not shy about his relationship with Yuyou.

Chu Lan disagreed and said, “Aren’t you and Xiaoyu engaged yet?”

“I’m not going to get engaged.”

“What?” Chu Lan looked at him in amazement.

“I want to get married directly.” The high-profile engagement ceremonies are often just to announce the news of a powerful marriage, which is inevitably somewhat commercial. Yuyou was from an ordinary background, so there was no need to make these falsehoods. Lu Jingyi just wanted to marry her home neatly.

Chu Lan opened her mouth in her heart, but in the end said nothing.

In the evening, Yu You lay on the bed holding the pillow, looking at Lu Jingyi who was wiping his head.

“What have you been staring at me for?” Lu Jingyi asked suddenly.

Yuyou got up, her long hair fell and spread out behind her, looking like an SD doll.

Lu Jingyi’s eyes were dark, and his fingers were itchy.

“Lu Jingyi, when we get married, will we still live in the old fish repair shop?” Yuyou asked.

“The repair shop is too small.” Lu Jingyi walked to Yuyou’s side and brushed up a lock of hair, “How about Xiaoyu living in the villa with me in the future?”

“It’s not impossible, it’s just a car to open a store every day.”

Lu Jingyi really wanted to say that the kind of small shop that has been losing money for many years should not be opened, but he knew that it was a legacy left by Xiaoyu’s parents. She would rather give up the opportunity to study and come back, which shows that she values ​​these things very much.

“Xiaoyu, have you ever thought about finding someone to take care of that shop?” Lu Jingyi analyzed earnestly and seductively, “My villa has a special studio, you can study technology with me, and you have enough fish if you want. In addition to large whales, it is not a problem to raise a few sharks. And the villa is by the sea, we can go diving in the sea at any time.”

The future outlined by Lu Jingyi made Yuyou very excited. She opened a repair shop, on the one hand, to inherit the family business, on the other hand, to study technological products and become skilled. If you can keep your family business and have more time to study technology, it is not impossible to change your living environment.

Thinking of this, Yu You nodded: “Okay, listen to you.” Not many people came to the store to repair electrical appliances, but more people bought fish. After moving into the villa in the future, Yuyou plans to transfer the remaining fish babies to the aquarium, where the environment is more suitable for them to live.

Lu Jingyi wrapped his arms around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

“Your hair isn’t dry yet…” A humming voice came from between his lips and teeth.

“Don’t worry about it, it’ll be done soon…”

Sleepless nights. This time, Lu Jingyi didn’t forget to wear a condom. Although he didn’t care about Yuyou’s transformation, Ovie was not suitable to appear here for the time being.

The next morning, Yuyou finished grooming, kissed Lu Jingyi who was still sleeping, and walked out of the room.

“How was your sleep last night?” Chu Lanxin came over and asked with a calm expression.

“I slept well, thank you aunt for your concern.” Yu You replied with a smile.

Chu Lanxin’s gaze stayed on her neck for a moment, then took her hand and walked downstairs.

“Xiaoyu, have you thought about it clearly?” Her tone was a little cautious.

“Think about what?” Yu You was puzzled.

“Marriage.” Chu Lan paused in her heart and asked hesitantly, “Did Jing Yi and that Ovie break up?”

Yuyou: “…No.”

Anger flashed across Chu Lanxin’s face: “I don’t know if he is with a man, you still want to marry him?”

Yuyou fell silent, not knowing how to answer.

“Xiaoyu, everything is fine with Jingyi, but this is the only thing I can’t tolerate.” Chu Lan gritted her teeth, “I’d rather he be mediocre for a lifetime than a half-hearted and indecisive person. Get married and have a couple for the rest of your life, or let you go and live with that boy for the rest of your life, there’s no reason to have two boats.”

Yuyou looked at Chu Lanxin, her eyes twinkling with bright light.

After a while, she said warmly, “Auntie, there is something I want to tell you…”

Today, the main house of the Lu family is very lively. The hall is arranged as a banquet hall. The long tables arranged in sequence are filled with food and drinks. The lights are bright, flowers are embellished, and sweet light music flows in the hall. One after another luxury cars drove into Qianhua Mountain, and Lu family relatives and friends and business celebrities arrived one after another.

Lu Jingyi took Yuyou to entertain guests in the hall.

Yu You was wearing a long blue dress and contact lenses. Facing the gazes of the crowd, she didn’t seem cramped at all. Unfamiliar faces passed by in front of her eyes, and she could only remember their height, shortness, fatness, clothing and voice habits. For those expressions full of connotation and inquiring eyes, she was completely unable to receive them.

Every guest brought a New Year’s gift, nothing more than jewelry, antiques, ornaments, paintings and calligraphy, medicinal materials and so on.

Gifts from ordinary guests are collected by special personnel, but gifts from relatives and friends of the Lu family are usually unpacked on the spot. This is a routine program of the Lu family’s annual meeting.

The only descendants of the Lu family’s direct line are Lu Jingyi and Lu Chengli’s son Lu Wencong, but the other side members are prosperous. There are more than forty people in the younger generation alone, and many of them are talented, which has caused a lot of pressure on the direct line. However, Lu Jingyi’s grandfather and father were too good. Relying on their extraordinary technical talent, they created a huge foundation for the Lu family, and their status was unshakable. By the time of Lu Jingyi’s generation, the Lu family has already become the leader of technology in country Z, with amazing strength. If that accident hadn’t happened, Lu Jingyi would be the worthy heir.

Only Lu Chengli’s father and son and several Lu family members knew about Lu Jingyi’s situation, so the rest of the Lu family had a lot to say about his sudden departure from the Lu family.

Recently, there have been some rumors that Lu Jingyi’s talents are exhausted and no new projects have been launched for several years. His prestige and ability have been questioned by many people.

Most of the Lu family’s children who came to the party this time were secretly observing the famous heir and wanted to inquire about some news.

As Lu Jingyi’s fiancee, Yu You naturally became the focus of everyone’s attention. Lu Dashao has been single for so long, and a fiancée suddenly appeared by his side, it is really hard not to make people curious.

The gifts from the Lu family’s relatives and friends appeared one by one, on the one hand for the fun, on the other hand for the sake of face. They are not comparing financial resources, but ingenuity. In this case, whether or not to impress others is also a manifestation of ability.

The Lu family is not Chu Lanxin alone. If Lu Jingyi loses power, others will have a chance to rise.

“Auntie, I wish you a happy New Year.” A young man in his early twenties handed him a gift, an emerald bottle the size of a palm. The texture was transparent, exquisite and lovely. The bottle was engraved with auspicious patterns. It makes me happy to see it.

“It’s been a few years, Yuan Wu seems to have grown a lot stronger.” Chu Lanxin asked the servant to take the gift and looked at Cui Yuanwu with a smile.

“I’ve been in the army for a few years, but I haven’t learned anything else, but my body is strong.” Cui Yuanwu beat his chest with his fist.

“That’s right, a man just needs to be stronger.” Chu Lan exchanged a few words with him, handed him a red envelope, and continued to greet the others.

Dozens of juniors sent their New Year gifts one after another. Lu Jingyi and Yu You Jing stood aside, occasionally chatting with people who came to say hello.

The New Year’s greetings went on for an hour, and there were not many gifts that really stood out, but all kinds of rare items still aroused the exclamations of many people. Everyone watched with relish, tasted each other, and added a few blessings from time to time. The atmosphere was very lively.

At this time, a girl in a red dress came to Yuyou and asked with a smile, “Miss Yu, have you prepared any present?”

Yu You remembered that the girl’s name was “Yu Kexin”, and the red dress on her body was very conspicuous and easy to distinguish.

Yu Kexin’s voice was not too loud or too small, and several people around could hear it clearly, and they all looked towards this side by accident.

Lu Jingyi lowered his face and looked at Yu Kexin coldly.

However, Yu You didn’t care, and said the truth: “The gift I prepared is a beauty instrument I made myself.”

“Beauty instrument?” Or homemade? Who would give such a low gift? !

Yu Kexin and the others were all stunned, and then they showed the expression of wanting to laugh or not.

“Cough, can we take a look?” Yu Kexin said in a kind tone.

Yu You looked at Lu Jingyi, who said lightly, “You decide.”

“Let’s take it out and see. I haven’t seen what a homemade beauty instrument looks like. If it works well, I would like to trouble Miss Yu to make one for me.” A curly-haired girl encouraged with a smile.

“Yeah, take it out and take a look.” Everyone agreed.

Chu Lan noticed the movement here, and heard that she just wanted to see Yuyou’s gift, but she didn’t take it to heart, and ordered the servant to go to the room and take out the gift.

Lu Jingyi stood by Yu You’s side as still as a mountain, and was ready to welcome the ridicule with her, but he kept an account in his heart and waited for it to be settled slowly in the future.
