Chapter 131 Is it okay?
Guan Yu focused on driving, glancing at Fang Lanxin every now and then. Each time, their eyes met, and the atmosphere in the car rose steadily, as if pink bubbles were bubbling between them.
Upon arriving at the villa halfway up the mountain, Guan Erye looked at Fang Lanxin with lingering reluctance, and only after watching her enter the door did he turn and leave.
"Happy New Year, Madam!"
"Happy New Year, Sister Fang!"
Ling Ye and Lu Chen suddenly appeared, their two beautiful faces beaming with smiles.
"Happy New Year, Mr. Fang."
Lu Asheng was a little embarrassed and smiled at Fang Lanxin.
"Happy New Year."
Fang Lanxin was pleasantly surprised to see them and quickly burst out laughing.
Cheng Yan screamed the moment she came downstairs.
"Ahhh, Actor Lu, I saw you again!"
Cheng Yan ran over quickly, looking at Lu Chen with a grin.
Lu Chen wore a bright red sweater today, perhaps to match the atmosphere, which made his fair skin and handsome appearance stand out.
"Hello, Cheng Yan."
Lu Chen smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
"My God, Actor Lu, you actually remember my name! This is truly an honor!"
Cheng Yan is usually quite composed, but when she sees Lu Chen, she acts like an exaggerated infatuated girl.
Looking at her adorable appearance, Lu Chen couldn't help but smile.
"My lady, I miss you so much."
"You've been away in the fishing village for so long, have you missed me?"
Ling Ye leaned closer, grinning at Fang Lanxin.
Fang Lanxin nodded, rubbed his big head, and said with a smile, "Of course I miss you. Your coach often calls me and says that you are training very hard now. Your English teacher is also praising you. You are very good!"
"Madam, is there a reward?" Ling Ye looked at Fang Lanxin with a smile, and then, as if by magic, produced a red rose and handed it to Fang Lanxin: "Madam, this is my New Year's gift to you!"
Fang Lanxin raised an eyebrow, a surge of surprise in her eyes. She reached out to take the rose, but just as her fingertips were about to touch it, Ling Ye suddenly withdrew the rose, turned his fingers, and a delicate gold necklace appeared in her palm.
"Madam, this is the real gift!"
"I bought it with my own money, I hope you like it!"
Ling Ye's eyes sparkled as he looked at Fang Lanxin with anticipation, worried that she might not like his birthday present.
Fang Lanxin immediately nodded, accepted the necklace, and smiled gently: "Thank you, I like it very much. You have good taste, this necklace is very beautiful."
Fang Lanxin then took out red envelopes: "One for each person, no refusing!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd cheered even more.
"Madam is finally back. I had the kitchen prepare a lot of delicious food for lunch. Madam, would you like to open a bottle of good wine?" Hu Zi walked over and looked at Fang Lanxin with a grin.
Fang Lanxin went up to him, smiled at Hu Zi, and handed him the red envelope in her hand: "Uncle Hu, Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
"You guys play cards, I'll go prepare lunch."
"Let's order a few more dishes!"
Hu Zi was overjoyed after receiving the red envelope and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
Do you guys know how to play cards?
As soon as Fang Lanxin spoke, the servants below naturally began to prepare the card table.
"I don't know how." Cheng Yan smiled awkwardly, "But I can watch you guys fight."
The remaining three people all knew how to play, so the game quickly progressed. Before long, Fang Lanxin noticed that Lu Chen, who had been playing quietly, actually had pretty good card skills and was winning one hand after another.
"Ah Chen, you're really good at playing cards."
Fang Lanxin looked at him with a smile.
Lu Chen looked at Fang Lanxin somewhat embarrassed and said softly, "I studied carefully beforehand in preparation for going out for social occasions!"
"Yes, that's really impressive!"
"However, Ah Sheng, you played this hand terribly!"
As Fang Lanxin spoke, she couldn't help but give Lu Asheng a disdainful look.
Lu Asheng is an alcoholic and doesn't like playing cards. He only helped out today because Lu Chen was in a good mood.
Soon it was lunchtime, and just as the group sat down around the table, Huo Qibang entered with his wife and children, carrying bags full of gifts.
The family of three stood at the doorway, looking somewhat awkward at the people enjoying themselves at the dining table.
Huo Qibang, in particular, never expected that Fang Lanxin would be with these unrelated people, but she was unwilling to be with him at all. Why?
He strode in, placed the things he was carrying on the table, and stared intently at Fang Lanxin.
"Uncle Hu, please add more bowls and chopsticks!"
Fang Lanxin smiled faintly and beckoned to Tianle: "Come here."
"Grandma!"
Tianle immediately went over happily, looking at Fang Lanxin with longing eyes, and then at the food on the table.
"Grandma, the dishes here look so beautiful!"
"Yes, Grandpa Hu made all of these himself!"
Fang Lanxin smiled and hugged the child in her arms: "Eat whatever you like!"
"Grandma, I can eat by myself now. My kindergarten teacher said that we should learn to do things for ourselves."
After speaking, Tianle sat down properly next to Fang Lanxin and wrapped a napkin around himself in a very professional manner.
Lin Meiling, arm in arm with Huo Qibang, sat down opposite Fang Lanxin.
Huo Qibang remained silent, clearly waiting for Fang Lanxin to break the ice.
However, Fang Lanxin didn't mean that; she just kept putting food on Tianle's plate.
"Mom, he's eating so much now!" Lin Meiling smiled. "This child has grown quite a bit during this time!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Lanxin smiled gently and said, "The child is growing right now, so he should eat more. Don't worry, children burn a lot of energy, so as long as he exercises more, it's fine for him to eat as much as he wants."
"Mom, I'm going back to my parents' home tomorrow. Can I take Tianle with me? My parents haven't seen him in a long time," Lin Meiling tentatively asked.
She comes from an ordinary background; her parents now live in the countryside. Although they are not poor, they are certainly not respectable.
Previously, Fang Lanxin had always disliked the Lin family's rural home, thinking it was unhygienic, and wouldn't let Tianle go there.
But now...
Fang Lanxin didn't hesitate at all. She nodded and said with a smile, "Of course! Speaking of which, Grandpa and Grandma haven't seen Tianle for a long time. There's no need to rush back after you go. You should stay and play for a few more days."
"Really?" Tianle looked at Fang Lanxin in disbelief. "Grandma, how can you be so good to me! You're too kind to me!"
