Around nine in the evening, Lu Yinchu came to pick up Nanxi, and sent another car to deliver Yang Su and Lan Qiqi.
When Nanxi got in the car, her heart was still resonating with a certain emotion. When she smelled the faint tobacco scent on the man, she was captivated by her senses!
If it weren’t for Mo Yan in the front seat, she really wanted to throw herself into his arms and hug him tightly!
Knowing that Nanxi and others were dining at "Xu Ji" Hot Pot, Lu Yinchu laughed and said, "I know this place, it has been around for quite some years. The hot pot inside is indeed good, though the owner changed a few years ago. Let me see... it should be around six years ago..."
"Ah?" Nanxi didn’t expect Lu Yinchu to know this, but considering he also graduated from H University, it’s quite normal for him to have eaten at "Xu Ji" Hot Pot.
It seems that "Xu Ji" really has been around for a while!
She nodded, "The taste of the hot pot is still quite good!"
"Hmm!" Lu Yinchu replied, "But it’s still not the same as before. When I was in school, the taste was even better than it is now!"
"Really?" Nanxi was surprised. Oh my god, it’s already very good now; if it was better before, how good must it have been!
Even though she was full, Nanxi couldn’t help but salivate... She wanted to eat so much!
"The previous owner of "Xu Ji" left and went to another city, leaving his skills to his nephew to continue running the business. This nephew is doing pretty well; he’s about 70-80% as good as the previous owner, which is quite impressive!"
"Oh!" Nanxi nodded, "Since the business was so good, why did he leave, I mean... the owner!"
"Hmm!" Lu Yinchu replied, "Back then, I also considered this question. After inquiring, I heard that his wife wanted him to return to their hometown, arguing that life in the big city was too tough. They had already saved some money and only wanted to live quietly and peacefully in a corner of the world. Just live a simple life..."
He paused, "At that time, I was young and didn’t understand why the owner would do that. I thought men should have their own businesses and ambitions. I even ridiculed the owner’s absurd decision... But now, with so many years passed and myself being a family man, I suddenly understand everything..."
"There are many people in this world whose businesses are not successful, but at least their families are happy; there are also many people whose businesses are successful, but that does not necessarily mean their families are happy... Business success is fleeting, while a family, is something one needs to cultivate over a lifetime!"
He gently pulled the corners of his mouth into a grin, reaching out his hand to grasp the hand of the woman sitting next to him, his expression relaxed and indifferent.
He said, "Nanxi, if one day you asked me to give up everything and leave with you to live a peaceful life in a corner of the world, I think, I would agree!"
Nanxi pursed her lips, recalling a quote she had once heard: All encounters in this world are a reunion after a long separation!
Among the vast sea of people, in the great world, there are so many people, unknown to each other, even if they pass by each other, it would not cause any ripples!
But it just so happened that they met, they got to know each other, they fell in love, and decided to spend their lives together!
Sharing life and death together; it’s like a beautiful fairy tale, but it carries with it an overwhelmingly heartfelt power!
Nanxi, if one day you asked me to give up everything and leave with you to live a peaceful life in a corner of the world, I think, I would agree!
Actually, even if he didn’t say it, she knew he would agree!
At breakfast the next day, Lu Yinchu has a good appetite, but Nanxi does not.
She is worried about one thing, tomorrow is Lu Yinchu’s birthday, but she doesn’t know how to celebrate it for him!
This is really a big problem!
In the past, when Li Weihuan had his birthday, Bai Yuchuan, Yang Su, and others would celebrate it together, so she didn’t need to put much thought into it!
All she needed to do was prepare a gift, and withstand their boisterousness at Li Weihuan’s birthday party!
Young people have their own ways of having fun, but Lu Yinchu, with his age and experience, probably wouldn’t enjoy those things!
So, what should she do? How should she give Lu Yinchu a memorable birthday?
It’s all a bit of a headache!
Nanxi is still considering this matter as she goes to work in the morning, and she doesn’t have anyone to consult!
