There was a drizzle of spring rain at night. The mountains were so quiet that you could hear the sound of raindrops falling and flowers blooming.
"The flowers are blooming." Li Changsi lay in his arms, sleepy and said in a low voice.
"Hmm?" Lu Qi reached out and tucked the loose hair on her temples behind her ears. He looked at her fair face and kissed her hair gently.
"I heard the sound of flowers blooming." She raised her eyes, and there was a smile in her slender and charming eyes, as if a sky full of stars had fallen. "Lu Qi, did you hear it?"
Lu Qi listened intently, but all he could hear was the gentle patter of spring rain against the window. Her smile was so bright and beautiful that it made him smile involuntarily: "The sound of my heart blossoming."
He could feel the changes in Changsi. After waking up from the coma, she looked much brighter, her previous indifference and hostility faded away, and occasionally she would reveal a rare innocence and naiveté, like now.
"Aren't you going to sleep yet?" The man's voice rose at the end, with a hint of seduction.
Li Changsi loved rainy days, especially rainy nights in spring and summer. He never felt sleepy at all. Seeing him forcing himself to sleep, he smiled and said, "Listen to the rain. Come listen with me."
With a coquettish tone.
Lu Qi fell in love with her in an instant. After a long while, he heard her ask softly, "Can you tell me something about the Lu Group?"
Lu Qi's heart tightened, and he unconsciously hugged her tighter. He said in a low voice, "Actually, Lu was there to protect you. He was once the Minister of the Cabinet, but when the dynasty collapsed, he resigned and retired."
Therefore, our ancestors later changed their surname to Lu, also to express their gratitude for this protection.
Li Changsi's eyes widened slightly. It turned out that she was actually the descendant of the Minister of the Central Secretariat. The fate between them was quite deep.
Seeing her unusual expression, Lu Qi's eyes deepened slightly. He kissed her little face and asked in a hoarse voice, "Changsi, when are we getting married?"
Li Changsi: “???”
As for the proposal, Li Changsi suspected that it was just an auditory hallucination in her dream. Since that night, Lu Qi never mentioned it again, and she didn't dare to ask directly, "Do you want to marry me?"
If she asked and the other party said yes, then wouldn't she be digging a hole and jumping into it?
She would never do such a stupid thing, so she continued to watch the flowers and clouds on the top of the mountain every day, occasionally popping up in the group to feel the atmosphere of fireworks down the mountain, but she just couldn't read.
Ever since Lu Qi looked at the test papers she wrote and learned that she had almost full marks in every subject, he no longer allowed her to bury herself in books day and night. Today he took her to the mountains for a spring outing, and tomorrow he took her to trim the garden. She was lazy by nature and had no interest in these things, so she just slacked off. Lu Qi didn't care, as long as she was by his side. The two of them spent a few days in their own world.
It will be the weekend soon.
"There's an auction tonight, Changsi, can you help me choose a collection?"
"Hmm?" Li Changsi was secretly reading the new script. During the days when she was on vacation, Qiubi was ordered not to come to the mountaintop manor, so the script was express delivered to her for her to choose. She didn't dare to read it openly, for fear that Lu Qi would feel neglected and be tortured by him at night.
She tends to go along with the other party in these little things.
"Just pick any one?" She stuffed the new script under the pillow and got up lazily. She felt a little sleepy after lunch and wanted to sleep.
"Just pick whatever you want." Seeing her sleepy look, Lu Qi laughed and said, "I'll take a nap with you. You can choose after you wake up. Come with me tonight to see if there are any items you like."
He will be present this time, and the major wealthy families will surely not bring out bad collections.
Hearing that he wanted to accompany her for a nap, Li Changsi immediately sobered up a bit. "Just kidding, what good will it end up like if I sleep with him?" "Enough of this these past few days."
"Go and choose your collection. I haven't seen your collection yet."
Just like the collection hall on the fourth floor of the art museum, various collections are displayed in different categories. There is not even a security system. They are just casually placed outside, which looks very luxurious.
Li Changsi looked all along the way and saw that they were all genuine and valuable collections, which were more numerous and more valuable than the collections in Changxin Palace in her previous life.
"Why do you collect so many antiques? It's just excessive extravagance!"
Seeing her condemning look, Lu Qi was speechless. He actually didn't really like collections, as they were all inanimate objects. It was just that every time he saw something beautiful, he wanted to collect it. It was just a habit ingrained in him.
“It’s just a habit.”
Li Changsi smiled and pointed at one of the paintings and said, "This one."
If this painting of a lady were not a private collection, it would become a treasure of the museum.
Lu Qi looked at the paintings she had chosen. They were paintings of Tang Dynasty ladies, part of Lu's private collection. They were painted by the same artist as the ones in the museum and had never been seen before.
“Why did you choose painting?”
"They're easy to tear and hard to preserve. I never liked collecting paintings before. They're not as glittering as jewelry and antiques."
Lu Qi couldn't help laughing, and couldn't help but caress her red lips, saying in a low voice: "That's it."
After saying that, he bent down and kissed her, and kissed her for a long time before letting her go.
Li Changsi took a nap as usual. When he woke up, he saw Su Xia waiting in the side hall on the first floor with her dress shoes. Song Mao was also there with a thick pile of documents. It was unknown what he was reporting.
"Sister Si, these are all picked out for you by the master."
Lu Qi has always had good taste. Her little dress was retro and elegant, and her shoes were low-heeled for comfort. However, she didn't like wearing jewelry, so Lu Qi only chose a pair of pearl earrings for her.
Su Xia glanced at Lu Qi and couldn't help but said secretly, "Sister Si, if you don't like it, there are four alternative sets of dresses and jewelry."
Even she couldn't stand it sometimes. Her husband's control desire was too strong. The dresses he chose were relatively conservative, the kind that only showed off her shoulders. He controlled her food, clothing, housing and transportation. During his vacation, he simply didn't allow his agent to submit work. He was such a control freak. How could Sister Si stand it?
Li Changsi looked at her with charming eyes. Su Xia mustered up her courage and said, "If you don't like it, you must tell your husband. If you don't mention it now, you will have no status in the family in the future and will be completely dominated by your husband."
Li Changsi laughed. Although she knew that he had a strong desire for control, she was too lazy to spend time and energy on these trivial matters. She quite liked his way of doing things and enjoyed her leisure time.
She just liked to see him choose clothes and shoes for her with dignity and elegance. Li Changsi lowered her eyes, her cheeks slightly hot. Although the dresses he chose for her were all conservative, the pajamas he chose were very unique, and he also liked to let her wear them for him to see.
She lazily hooked her finger at Su Xia and said with a smile: "You don't understand, you will understand when you have a partner in the future."
Su Xia felt like she'd eaten a mouthful of dog food, yet she couldn't even call the police. Why did she feel like Sister Si was the one doting on her husband? It must be an illusion.
There was a buffet reception at the charity dinner in the evening, but Li Changsi still ate a little at home before accompanying him to the event.
Li Changsi saw that he was dressed very formally, with a well-cut suit and tie. The pattern and color of the tie were from the same series as her dress. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the suit and dress were custom-made for couples, and he was quite thoughtful about it.
"Is the charity dinner tonight important?" Li Changsi touched the cufflinks on his cuffs, blue diamond cufflinks. It was rare to see him dressed like this, which inexplicably attracted people.
"This is the first time I'm attending a public event as your man, and I can't embarrass you." Lu Qi looked deep in his eyes, and held her little hand with his fingertips to prevent her from teasing him.
He had no resistance to her at all.
"How is it? Can you still see people?"
"It's just passable." Li Changsi nodded coldly. Seeing him narrow his eyes dangerously, he smiled and praised, "Very handsome, very proud!"
The man's thin lips curled up slightly.
The charity dinner was held on the top floor of a high-end private club, which took half an hour to drive there. Li Changsi sat in the back seat, playing with his phone boredly. Then he saw Xuan Yiyi post a group of photos and Tian Ye was screaming "Wow wow wow" in the group.
Tian Ye: Is this the kind of charity dinner only the rich and powerful can attend? It feels so high-class. Tu Gou groaned in envy.
Xuan Yiyi: Of course, the purpose of the late spring charity dinner is to spend money. In previous years, items have been sold at sky-high prices of tens of millions. It would be embarrassing to bid without spending hundreds of millions or even tens of millions.
The purpose of this kind of occasion is to donate money, one is to do charity and show the family's financial strength, the other is to interact with wealthy people in the circle. Sometimes the money spent can be earned back quickly, so the annual spring and autumn charity dinners are grand events in the circle. However, this year's early spring charity dinner was changed to late spring. I heard that it was to cater to Mr. Lu's schedule.
As for who that person was, Xuan Yiyi didn't know either. In her prophetic dream, there was no Mr. Lu at all. Brother Bai Zhuo was the favored son of heaven. The Bai family later became powerful and prosperous, and Brother Bai Zhuo also retired from the film and television industry and came back to inherit the family property.
But now it seems that everything in the dream is different from reality. First of all, Bai Zhuo is not with Song Xingyue, he likes Li Changsi. Li Changsi, an 18th-tier unknown star who has long been offline, is not only still online, but his career is booming, surpassing Song Xingyue, as if he got the script of the heroine.
However, she had no chance to target Li Changsi, because Li Changsi had a boyfriend, and they would show their affection from time to time. That man was indeed handsome and gentle, but his family background was not that good, which was a pity.
Xuan Yiyi felt that reality was better. The Xuan family was not bankrupt, Brother Bai Zhuo was still single, and she still had a chance.
Tian Ye: You have to have a mine at home to participate.
Rong Shu: I don’t have a mine at home, so I came here to watch the fun. Have you gone to Changsi’s house to play mahjong?
Tian Ye: No, let alone playing mahjong, Brother Lu really went too far. I called Brother Lu, and guess what he said?
Lin Lushen: Hehehe, he must be busy, he wants to spend some time alone with his sister.
Tian Ye Cangsang lit a cigarette: No, he asked me, who are you?
Everyone in the group laughed like crazy.
Tian Ye: At that moment, I received a 10,000-point critical hit. Do you think that this is the end? No, I suggested going to Brother Lu's house to play mahjong. Brother Lu was silent for a long time and then said something.
Xuan Yiyi: Speak quickly!!!
Tian Ye, his appetite piqued, typed: "He said, 'Winning our money is meaningless, meaningless! ! ! ' My young heart was struck twice. (Gnashing teeth)
Li Changsi chuckled and typed lazily: There's nothing wrong with what he said.
Lin Lushen: Hahahaha, I’m laughing so hard. Sister, did you know that Brother Lu is such a sharp-tongued person?
Tian Ye: @李长思, so you just spend every day in your own world and don’t socialize at all?
Li Changsi: Yes, I accompanied him to an auction in the evening.
Rongshu: @Li Changsi, it seems like there's only the Late Spring Auction tonight? Are we attending the same charity dinner?
The boiled food that has not bubbled for a long time:???
Xuan Yiyi: ???
Didn't they say her boyfriend's assets were average? And he even managed to get an invitation? Was Li Changsi just bragging?
Li Changsi: I didn’t ask, so I’m not sure.
She hadn't thought of this at first, but after seeing the group message, she realized that Lu Qi was taking her to the late spring charity dinner that Xuan Yiyi mentioned was only for the top wealthy families to attend.
The time was the same, so Lu Qi asked her to pick out another painting for auction. The painting was a genuine picture of a maid from the Tang Dynasty, one of Lu's collections. Such a painting could not be accommodated at an ordinary charity dinner.
But she hadn't expected Lu Qi to have an invitation. She narrowed her eyes, not looking at Lu Qi, and asked Song Mao, who was driving, "Assistant Song, are Lu Qi's assets considered average?"
Song Mao was driving and almost stepped on the accelerator when he heard this. What? Mr.'s assets are considered average? How can he not even know how to write the word "average"!
Lu Qi raised his eyebrows and laughed softly, "Is this considered an investigation of pre-marital assets? I don't mind having Song Mao compile a list of Lu's assets. 520 is a good day, why don't we go to the Civil Affairs Bureau on that day? Every day after May is a good day.
Ah Mao, you should sort out the asset list in the next two days."
Song Mao was stunned and nodded stiffly: "Okay, sir, I have been sorting it out for three months and it is almost done."
Li Changsi blinked his big black eyes, looking confused.
Seeing this, Lu Qi reached out and stroked her little face, then smiled softly and said, "You promised me that night, have you forgotten?"
Li Changsi: “???”
Can the promise made that night still be counted? She has no recollection of it.
"You don't remember?" Lu Qi's eyes darkened. He leaned close to her ear and whispered in a low voice, "Then I'll help you recall it when you come back tonight."
Li Changsi was suddenly aroused by him, and the tips of his ears felt hot. He moved back and smiled, "We'll talk about the future later."
Lu Qi narrowed his eyes dangerously and nodded slowly: "Well, let's discuss this matter tonight."
