After borrowing the light, Luo Shimiao put the two lotus lanterns down together, then closed his eyes and put his hands together in prayer.
A few seconds later, she opened her eyes.
"What did you wish for?" Gu Nian asked, looking at the girl's beautiful profile.
Luo Shimiao lifted her curled eyelashes and said, "It won't work if you say it out loud. It's your turn."
With a smile in his dark eyes, Gu Nian said, "May Miss Luo Shimiao have abundant wealth and good fortune, and may she surpass me soon."
"Actually, it's more effective if you say it out loud. How can the gods hear it if you don't say it?"
After releasing the lotus lanterns, Luo Shimiao scanned a shared electric scooter with her phone.
Seeing Gu Nian standing still, he asked, "Why aren't you sweeping?"
Gu Nian: "I don't know how to drive."
"Huh? You can drive a motorcycle, so why can't you drive an electric bike?" Luo Shimiao stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
A few minutes later, Luo Shimiao drove the car expressionlessly, with two people squeezed onto the small seat.
Gu Nian's long legs, with nowhere to go, were placed on the footrest in front, with Luo Shimiao's feet trapped in the middle.
Live stream chat, bullet comments.
—【I've learned something: you need to be thick-skinned when necessary and thin-skinned when appropriate; that way, you can be more affectionate with your wife.】
—【Hahaha, Mr. Gu definitely did it on purpose. He wouldn't know how to drive it; nobody would believe that!】
—【Hmph, what a cunning man!】
The villa I currently live in is located within a residential complex, but there are no designated parking areas for shared electric bikes inside, so I have to park outside and walk back.
When she returned upstairs, she found that the others had not returned yet. Luo Shimiao opened the wardrobe to take out her pajamas, her fingertips touching the hanger, but she did not take them down.
She remembered her favorite Psyduck pajamas, which she had left in the camp's shower room last time. She wondered if Gu Nian had brought them back later.
After taking a shower, Luo Shimiao lingered outside Gu Nian's door.
Click, the door opened from the inside, and Gu Nian raised an eyebrow: "Why didn't you knock before you came? Come in."
Luo Shimiao looked down and twirled her fingers: "That..."
Rarely seeing the girl like this, Gu Nian sat on the edge of the bed, his tone slightly raised: "Which one?"
Luo Shimiao was no longer shy. It was all in the past, and she had already touched it. She looked up and asked, "Did you pick up the pajamas I dropped in the shower room that day?"
Gu Nian gestured with his chin toward the wardrobe, and Luo Shimiao's eyes lit up. Sure enough, she had brought it back. She ran over and opened the wardrobe, where she saw a set of yellow pajamas with a Psyduck print hanging inside.
Her fingers pinched her shirt and pants, pulling them down. Without the pajamas covering her, the clothes hanging in the middle were exposed. Luo Shimiao's face instantly turned bright red. She had overlooked something.
Her underwear was also hanging there intact; she didn't care whether it was a regular style or a sexy style.
But it was precisely the set she had customized that had the following words printed all over the underwear: "Wishing you prosperity," "May wealth and treasures come to you," "May your wealth roll in," "May your fortune be prosperous," and "May your wealth be abundant." The bra was also printed with gold ingots!
She really would thank him! Would it be too late to go to another planet?! Remembering what Gu Nian said by the river tonight, she was certain he had seen it!
He sighed heavily, closed his eyes, took them off, stuffed them into his pajamas, and walked dejectedly toward the door.
"Wait a minute," Gu Nian said, suppressing a laugh.
Luo Shimiao turned around, her eyes lifeless, and said in a weak voice, "Is there anything else?"
"Come over here and I'll apply the medicine for you."
"oh"
Feeling utterly hopeless, I walked over and collapsed onto the bed.
The pain briefly made Luo Shimiao forget the moment of her impending death.
After being tormented by Gu Nian for seven or eight minutes, Luo Shimiao stared blankly as Gu Nian took out tissues to wipe the residual medicinal wine from his hands. His eyes caught sight of the tissue packaging, and he sat up abruptly: "You said you brought tissues last time, is this it?"
"Um"
Luo Shimiao pointed at the exquisitely packaged tissues with a trembling finger and said, "Did you have diamonds in your butt? Using tissues that cost 200 yuan a pack!"
"I still have my suitcase."
Upon hearing this, Luo Shimiao ran over and grabbed two packets: "They must be very clean. I'm going back to the bathroom now."
Gu Nian: "........."
Today is the seventh day since the show started airing. To thank Gu Nian for the luxurious tissues last night, Luo Shimiao got up early this morning to make fruit juice.
"Knock knock knock"
"Enter"
Every time she heard Gu Nian say "come in," she felt like she was going to an office to report on her work.
"I made you a glass of juice. It'll give you energy in the morning, and keep you healthy!"
Gu Nian sat upright at his desk. Luo Shimiao placed the juice on the table and stood behind him, wanting to see what he was looking at.
Suddenly, Chen Jiawen's voice rang out: "Greetings, Madam!"
Then came an even louder voice: "Greetings, Madam!"
Luo Shimiao was so frightened that she took a half step back, staring at the dozen or so heads on the computer screen, her scalp tingling!
Gu Nian gave Chen Jiawen an admiring look.
It turned out that Gu Nian was in a meeting.
"You're busy, you're busy!" Luo Shimiao fled in panic.
"Please take care, Madam."
Luo Shimiao ran even faster!
I had just run out when I bumped into the staff delivering the task cards.
"Bungee jumping? Xin Yue would be terrified if she knew about it."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Lan Xinyue's wailing came from downstairs.
Lan Xinyue: "Director, you have no heart!"
Hailongxia, Hushi
Lan Xinyue stood on the bungee jumping platform, trembling.
Workers: "Who wants to go first?"
Cao Lu glanced at Lan Xinyue and said, "Let's go first and set an example for them. Look at her lack of courage."
"Gu Nian, can you get this for me? I need to go to the restroom."
Cao Lu overheard Luo Shimiao's words and said, "Luo Shimiao, you're not going to the toilet because you're afraid you'll pee your pants later, are you?"
"You have shit and pee but you don't poop, why are you saving it to eat, you idiot!"
