Lu Yuzhi persisted, saying, "I will send people to manage it; you can just give me directions."
But Dad insisted, "I'd rather be a security guard."
Looking at her stubborn father, Li Peiyu smiled and said, "That's fine too. Security guard can be a part-time boss."
Just as the group was chatting and laughing, a crisp cell phone ringtone suddenly broke the cheerful atmosphere.
Li Peiyu took out her phone and saw Wang Boyang's name displayed on the screen.
She frowned slightly, wondering what urgent matter Wang Boyang wanted to discuss with her at this hour. After answering the phone, she heard Wang Boyang say urgently, "Peiyu, quickly check the news! Something big has happened!"
After hanging up the phone, filled with doubt, Li Peiyu quickly opened her news app. With a swipe of her finger, the top headline instantly appeared on the screen.
The first news item was a bombshell – top idol Xiao Fan and award-winning actor Zhang Yuwen publicly came out as gay. The accompanying photo showed the two holding hands tightly, their faces beaming with resolute and happy smiles.
Standing on the stage of a press conference, under the flashing lights of numerous media outlets, they publicly announced their seven-year relationship. Furthermore, they solemnly declared their retirement from the entertainment industry.
Li Peiyu stared in shock at the news and handed her phone to Lu Yuzhi.
Lu Yuzhi frowned slightly, pondering to himself. Why was Zhang Yuwen so impulsive? All the earnest advice he'd given him that day seemed to have been wasted. He shook his head helplessly, thinking, "Well, Li Peiyu will soon be back to his usual CEO persona."
Sure enough, after seeing the news, Li Peiyu immediately walked to the side and quickly dialed Zhang Yuwen's number.
As soon as the call connected, Li Peiyu launched into a tirade of exasperation, her words filled with worry and reproach for Zhang Yuwen's impulsive behavior. But after the scolding, she sincerely asked him if he wanted to join Yuxing Entertainment, emphasizing that he was welcome both in front of and behind the camera.
Lu Yuzhi walked over, grabbed the phone, and hung up immediately.
"What?" Li Peiyu looked at Lu Yuzhi with a puzzled expression.
Lu Yuzhi looked at her tenderly and said softly, "At least wait until tomorrow to start work, okay, Mrs. Lu?"
Looking at Lu Yuzhi's expectant eyes, Li Peiyu hesitated for a moment, but finally compromised and said, "Okay."
On the afternoon of the day their visit to the resort ended, Lu Yuzhi and Li Peiyu bid farewell to their families and began their journey home.
The car drove smoothly along the highway, the scenery outside the window constantly receding. Gradually, Li Peiyu fell asleep halfway through the journey. Her breathing was even and steady, and her face carried a peaceful expression of exhaustion.
Lu Yuzhi looked at the sleeping Li Peiyu, his eyes filled with doting affection. By the time they arrived home, it was completely dark. Lu Yuzhi carefully carried the sleeping Li Peiyu back to the bedroom. He gently settled her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and looked at her peaceful sleeping face, his heart filled with tenderness.
After settling Li Peiyu in, Lu Yuzhi went to his study. He dialed a number, and Lu Antai's voice came from the other end.
"Yuzhi, what is it?"
“Lu Antai, go pick your mother up and take her home tomorrow. I'll back down, and you should also put away your thoughts. We can live in peace.” Lu Yuzhi’s voice was calm and firm.
When Lu Antai heard these words, his body trembled slightly. He couldn't believe his ears and asked hesitantly, "Are you serious?"
Lu Yuzhi answered affirmatively, "Really."
Lu Antai quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of my mother from now on."
Lu Yuzhi responded calmly, "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuzhi stood by the window in the study, gazing at the dark night outside.
Li Peiyu grew up surrounded by love, and he's willing to let go of the past and create a peaceful family life for her. In this home, she's sure to get along very well with Minzhi and Minhui.
He could imagine that one day in the future, in the garden downstairs, their child would be held and played with by Minzhi and Minhui, while Li Peiyu watched and smiled from the side.
…The End of This Story…
I'll write about Gu Yan and Wang Boyang later.
There's also the story of Li Peiyu after she returns to her original world.
