The decadent second-generation rich kid and the fallen female basketball star grow together, striving for glory for the country. The light of glory is light, and the light of kindness is also light...
The vineyard is lush with green leaves and sweet water, exuding a strong sense of life.
The thought that this was the last night she would be staying at the Fujiinu residence made Lu Yu feel a little reluctant to leave.
The words were spoken with an air of not wanting to lose. "My vineyard isn't necessarily much worse than your villa."
“Come stay at my villa. It’ll spur my dad to settle the marriage sooner. You can come back to Tengyuan anytime. The yard is beautiful, and the grapes are delicious.” Jiao Yuyin stood at the gate, looking at the grape trellis.
Speaking of grapes, Lu Yu recalled that bunch of dried sour grapes.
A month has passed, yet it feels like a lifetime has gone by.
"The first time you came to my house, you didn't even touch that bunch of grapes."
Jiao Yuyin chuckled, his brows and eyes relaxing. "You ate one pill and put it down; it looks sour."
He raised an eyebrow. "Grapes from August are the sweetest."
"You're the only one with eyes who can see, huh?"
After exchanging a few playful banter, the atmosphere was relaxed and natural, and the two partners, who hit it off immediately, embarked on a new journey.
Lu Yu dribbled and ran, swimming into the sunset on the open-air basketball court, practicing his dribbling moves in front of a wooden chair, his movements skillful and graceful.
Jiao Yuyin and his assistant Qin were verbally coordinating their work by the basketball court. The discussion ranged from agricultural and livestock companies to news reports, and then to reactions at home.
Perhaps the players on the field had finally had a good night's sleep, for they all looked remarkably well. Their cheeks were bathed in the glow of the sunset, and beads of sweat dripped onto the concrete, making them look incredibly energetic.
After Lu Yu's training ended, with the cooperation of Jiao Yuyin and Assistant Qin, the distance test of listening to the heart's voice began.
Simply put, in environments with varying noise levels, Assistant Qin approached Lu Yu from a distance, testing the distance at which her voice could be clearly heard.
Lu Yu believed that Jiao Yuyin was a promising scientist, and he had truly mastered the controlled variable experiment method.
The distance at which a road can clearly hear a voice varies depending on the noise level.
Hearing and understanding are two different things; Jiao Yuyin wanted to ensure that Lu Yu could accurately understand his father's true feelings.
The decibel meter and sound system are ready.
"A 30-decibel environment..."
“.….”
"Okay, the environment is now 70 decibels..."
“.….”
Multiple tests have shown that the decibel level in everyday environments is roughly between 30 and 50 decibels.
In a 50-decibel environment, Luyu can ensure that it can be heard clearly within a radius of about 100 meters.
In a noisy environment of 80 decibels, Lu Yu can accurately hear within a radius of about 10 meters.
Jiao Yuyin sat on a stone chair under the grapevines, muttering the number "10 meters".
He pondered for two seconds and made up his mind. "This can only be done if you and my dad are in the same room. We need to get married as soon as possible. Don't wear sunglasses and hats when you go out anymore. Once my dad finds out you're a star athlete, he'll probably arrange a meeting. That'll be an opportunity."
"You're not going to offer me money to leave you, are you?" Lu Yu's voice was cold and indifferent.
"It was just a conversation before the wedding. He answered whatever they asked. My dad doesn't have that kind of controlling nature. He's had six wives; he understands everything. My second sister even married a security guard, and he didn't object. He doesn't care who his children marry, as long as they don't threaten the Jiao family," Jiao Yuyin said speechlessly.
Lu Yu asked, puzzled, "But what does this have to do with my profession?"
"My family has a rule: no dating celebrities or sports stars. It's fine for ordinary people to date. But if it's a celebrity, they're constantly making headlines, and if the relationship falls apart, it's a real problem. So if my date is a sports star, it means I'm aiming for marriage."
Jiao Yuyin paused for a long time before saying, "He will definitely investigate your family situation... Be prepared."
Lu Yu stared at Jiao Yuyin's evasive eyes and avoidance of expression, feeling somewhat puzzled.
Lu Yu, who can read minds and know what others are thinking all year round, couldn't guess why Jiao Yuyin was suddenly stammering just by looking at his eyes.
Fortunately, although she couldn't hear Jiao Yuyin's thoughts, Assistant Qin's thoughts were clearly heard.
[Poor Lu Yu. If Chairman Jiao brings up her family again, it'll be like rubbing salt into the wound... Oh my god, I can't think about it! I can't think about it!]
Lu Yuxin understood immediately; it turned out that Jiao Yuyin had investigated her family situation beforehand. Indeed, given his status, how could he have impulsively come to her door asking for a marriage agreement without thoroughly investigating?
Lu Yu didn't want to leave anything unsaid, so she said, "So... you investigated me, didn't you?"
Assistant Qin shook his head repeatedly, somewhat regretful.
“…..Hmm.” Jiao Yuyin nodded.
Lu Yu spoke naturally, without any sadness or sorrow.
"My parents... are just titles to me, not scars. Even if your dad asks, it's only natural. It's nothing."
After Lu Yu finished speaking, she went to pack the things she would take with her tomorrow.
Jiao Yuyin didn't bring up the topic again, but simply explained tomorrow's arrangements to his assistant Qin in the courtyard.
"Come pick us up at 1 p.m. tomorrow, then we'll go to the amusement park. We'll book a French restaurant with a view, but we don't need to book the whole place, just a reservation."
As Lu Yu rummaged around in the bedroom of the vineyard, Assistant Qin's voice gradually lowered and disappeared.
Shortly after, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
"Please come in."
"You can train as usual tomorrow morning. In the afternoon, we'll go to the theme park. Just bring some things you usually need. Don't bring any clothes or anything like that. We'll go back to the villa tomorrow night."
"Um……"
The bedroom was simply furnished, with the scent of raspberries overpowering the aroma of papyrus.
The only bathroom is in the bedroom.
It could be that the small bedroom is cramped, or the sound of water in the bathroom is too loud.
Even the raspberry-scented shampoo became extraordinary, its fragrance irresistible.
The two people, who were used to sharing a bed, now had an inexplicable atmosphere.
