Chapter 24 Lu Mansion Family Dinner
The Yuehu Villa in Sheshan, Shanghai, has winding paths and is surrounded by mountains and water. Gu Yu and Han Yimeng walked through the corridor surrounded by green plants and rang the doorbell.
After a while, an elegant and kind woman opened the door.
"Aunt Liu, hello, I'm Gu Yu."
"Auntie, hello, I'm Han Yimeng."
"You are here, please come in, please come in."
The two changed their shoes and walked into the living room. At this time, Lu Jiming and Ning Meng were chatting with Lu's father.
"Hello, uncle."
"Uncle Lu."
"Why would you bring a gift when you come to visit my home? You must be Gu Yu, right? You are a handsome man. I hope you and Jiming can take care of each other in the future."
"It's the right thing to do for the first visit, but I won't bring it next time."
"Haha, good, Xiao Gu is quite humorous. Xiao Meng, you're back. It's been years since we last saw you. You're getting prettier. Why did you bring something with you?"
"A little gift from me. I've been abroad for many years and I've always missed Uncle Lu."
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. By the way, let me introduce you to her. Hehe, this kid Jiming finally brought me a daughter-in-law.
This is Ning Meng, Ning Meng, this is Jiming’s sister. Thanks to her care when I was a child, I went abroad later.”
Father Lu introduced the two people with a smile, and the two girls looked at each other. Han Yimeng looked at Lu Jiming again and found that he had been paying attention to Ning Meng. There was a trace of worry on his face, and she smiled with relief.
"Ning Meng, I'll trouble you to take good care of Mingming from now on. Mingming, you have to be nicer to others. It's not easy for you to find such a nice girl with your stubborn temper."
Han Yimeng said to Ning Meng with a smile, her face full of kindness.
"Sister Meng, don't worry, he and I are doing fine."
"Okay, everyone is here, let's take a seat. We'll eat and talk." Aunt Liu saw that it was almost time, so she asked everyone to take their seats in the restaurant.
The dishes on the table were a combination of meat and vegetables, and they looked great and tasted great. Father Lu also opened a bottle of red wine that he had collected for thirty years. He had a smile on his face the whole time, and it was obvious that he was in a very good mood.
"Today is a triple blessing. I haven't been this happy for a long time. First of all, I want to welcome Ning Meng here as Mingming's girlfriend. Secondly, I am happy to see Xiao Meng again after so many years. I am happy to see that you are both doing well. Finally, I want to thank Xiao Gu. First, thank you for taking care of Mingming in business. Second, thank you very much for being a friend and helping him and Ning Meng become a couple. Come on, have fun today and drink more!"
Everyone raised their glasses, and for a moment the atmosphere at the table was filled with reunion and happiness.
"Come, eat. Auntie is cooking home-cooked dishes today. I don't know if they suit your taste." Aunt Liu looked at Gu Yu and Han Yimeng and said kindly.
"After so many years away from home, what I miss most is the taste of home. Thank you, Auntie." Han Yimeng said gently.
"This is a warmth that no amount of money can buy. To be honest, I'm really envious of Brother Ming and Ning Meng right now."
Aunt Liu was very happy to hear what Gu Yu and Han Yimeng said, and her face was full of smiles.
"That's easy. Come to our house often to eat. Your Aunt Liu may not be good at other things, but she is a great cook." Father Lu also said happily. When people get older, they like to be lively.
"By the way, you should try the fermented glutinous rice soup I made. Xiao Ning taught me how to make it." Aunt Liu smiled and pulled Ning Meng's hand.
Everyone tasted it and praised it highly.
"Mm, it tastes good. Brother Ji Ming will have a good time in the future."
Gu Yu took a bite and then teased the young couple. Ning Meng smiled shyly, and Han Yimeng also took a small spoonful and nodded with satisfaction.
"Ning Meng is such a thoughtful kid. Thanks to her, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get home."
Aunt Liu was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. She kept praising her and picked up some food for Ning Meng from time to time.
"It seems that Ning Meng has got control over Mingming. This is not easy as he has a very stubborn temper." Han Yimeng said softly to Ning Meng with a smile.
"No, no, he's usually very nice. Sometimes I get angry, but he's very patient."
Ning Meng and Lu Jiming looked at each other and smiled, enjoying the sweetness of the passionate love period. They also became more relaxed at the dinner table, constantly chatting about family matters.
"Xiao Meng, I see you are not young anymore. Have you solved your personal problems?"
"Are you a matchmaker, worrying about this and that?"
Lu Jiming felt a little impatient when he heard this, and felt that it was not good to pry into other people's private affairs.
"How do you talk to your father?"
"Uncle, I was obviously joking with you. Today is a family dinner. We ate and talked casually and happily."
Ning Meng saw that the father and son were about to have another conflict, so she quickly took over the conversation.
"Xiao Ning is right. Uncle is used to it. I will pay more attention next time. Lu Jiming, I am concerned about Xiao Meng. Please don't interrupt me."
Father Lu's tone and attitude towards Ning Meng and his son seemed like a different person. Lu Jiming couldn't help but roll his eyes and was too lazy to argue with him anymore.
"Uncle Lu, actually I just broke up not long ago."
Han Yimeng answered softly, looking a little depressed. Everyone present was stunned and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"With Sister Meng's conditions, the people who want to pursue her can probably line up from Shanghai to America. Uncle Lu, you are worrying too much. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Besides, if you don't try and make one or two mistakes, how can you know what your Mr. Right will look like?"
Gu Yu quickly spoke to ease the atmosphere.
"Yes, Xiao Gu is right. Xiao Meng, don't take it to heart. I'm old now and I just like to talk about these things. Come on, let's have another drink together. Today is a rare day."
After everyone raised their glasses together again, everyone in the room seemed to have forgotten the previous topic.
Father Lu took Gu Yu and Lu Jiming to talk about investment-related matters, and taught them his own investment methods, asking them to pay more attention to environmental protection projects.
Han Yimeng chatted with Aunt Liu and Ning Meng from time to time, but she occasionally glanced at Gu Yu, her beautiful eyes thoughtful, and I don't know if she was touched by what he said just now.
Soon after the Lu family dinner, Gu Yu and Han Yimeng said goodbye to everyone in the Lu family and left, while Ning Meng and Lu Jiming were forced to stay.
On the way back to the city, there was a little silence in the speeding car. Gu Yu was driving attentively, and Han Yimeng was looking out the dark window with a dazed look in her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking about.
"Gu Yu, can I still meet my Mr. Right? I'm already over 30."
A gentle voice broke the silence, and the resentment in the words shook people's hearts.
"Sister Meng, you are the one who said that. You look no different from a 20-year-old girl, and you are so pretty and intelligent. It's only because I have Tiantian, otherwise, I would have started to pursue you madly by now."
Gu Yu was silent for a moment, then spoke in a relaxed tone. Han Yimeng chuckled softly after hearing it.
"Gu Yu, you really know how to please girls. I'm a little curious about how you pursue girls."
"The kind that is so shameless and persistent that you can't drive them away."
"Then I really have to thank Tiantian, otherwise I would have a headache."
Han Yimeng was amused by Gu Yu all the way and temporarily forgot the pain of breaking up. After Gu Yu sent her home, he said a few simple words to her and left.
After Han Yimeng closed the door, she looked at the empty room and became depressed again. She sighed softly, walked to the balcony, sat on a chair with her hands on her knees, and stared blankly at the Huangpu River.
"Hello, Brother Jiming?"
"Well, don't worry, I just sent Sister Meng back."
"I hired a housekeeper who comes every day, don't worry."
"Traveling again? Alone?"
"Hey, are you on a business trip? What's the difference between this and a honeymoon?"
"Brother Ji Ming, you are really targeting me alone for trouble. How could you bear it?"
"Okay, okay, I'll make a plan, and you have to help me explain it to Tiantian, don't misunderstand me!"
"See you."
Gu Yu hung up the phone using the Bluetooth headset, frowned slightly, slowly parked the car to the side of the road, thought, and after a while, dialed another number.
"Hi Smith, good morning."
"Dear Gu, calling so early can easily disturb my morning exercise."
Gu Yu heard the moans of a foreign woman on the other end of the line, followed by a high-pitched scream, and chuckled.
"Do you want me to give you some time?"
"I can only say that you are very good at finding the right time. I just finished it."
"Okay, let's get down to business. I'm here to give you some RMB again."
"Haha, I love Chinese people. You are always generous and forthright. What do you need me to do?"
