Gu Nianzhi’s eyes lit up. She quickly pulled Lu Jin in and said happily, “Dad, Happy New Year! You’re finally back!”

She asked again, “Today is the first day of the New Year. Why didn’t you wait for me to pick you up?”

She was still thinking of asking Lu Jin for help and then contacting he zhichu!

Lu Jin patted his chest and smiled. “I drank too much last night. If I hadn’t come back with you guys, my lady wouldn’t have to worry about me.”

“Dad, What are you talking about? Isn’t it my duty to Worry About You?”Gu Nianzhi hugged Lu Jin’s arm and walked into the house. She smiled. “I’m your lady!”

“That’s right! My Lady is the best!”Lu Jin patted her head, he said ruefully, “Boss Lu is such a miser. I just woke him up a little too loudly in the morning, and he’s already full of anger. He’s trying to get back at me on purpose, and his lunch is terrible!”

Gu Nianzhi:”…”

She had been busy recently, so she hadn’t paid attention to Lu Jin’s recent developments. She hadn’t expected him to be able to speak Manchurian.

Gu nianzhi rubbed her forehead. “It’s the first day of the New Year. How did you wake up President Lu?”

“I’m Hungry!”Lu Jin said matter-of-factly. “I drank too much last night and overslept in the morning. I didn’t have breakfast. How could I Not Be Hungry?”

“And then?”

“And then I went to look for Boss Lu!”! “But I didn’t see him in the kitchen or the dining room. I guessed that he hadn’t gotten out of bed yet. I knocked on his bedroom door for a long time and realized that he and Ms. Song weren’t awake. I was worried that something might have happened to them, so I set off the smoke detector in the room…”

Gu Nianzhi:”! ! !”

When that thing rang, it was so powerful that it could pierce through one’s eardrums.

Gu Nianzhi completely understood, she held back her laughter and said, “Dad, you do care about President Lu, but you might have disturbed him from sleeping in. It’s not easy for president Lu to sleep in once a year, but you woke him up. And it’s the first day of the new year! — I’d be angry too!”

“Can you blame me? There’s only leftovers in the kitchen, and I don’t want to eat them.”Lu Jin sat down with Gu Nianzhi in the dining room and said, “I wasn’t full just now. Do you have anything to eat here?”

Gu Nianzhi remembered the sweet osmanthus rice wine and sesame rice balls that Huo Shaoheng had just cooked. She was about to ask if Huo Shaoheng still had them when she saw him carrying a small bowl of rice balls over, she smiled and said, “This is dessert. Uncle Lu, please put it on first. I’ll go make lunch.”

Lu Jin quickly picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful into his mouth. He hummed in satisfaction and praised, “Shaoheng’s skills are already better than boss Lu’s! Good! He has a future!”

He even gave Gu Nianzhi a thumbs up. “My daughter has a good husband!”

Gu Nianzhi:”…”

She wanted to remain calm, but the corners of her lips curled up.

Huo Shaoheng glanced at her and said, “Nianzhi, do you want another bowl?”

“No, I’m waiting for lunch.”Gu Nianzhi smiled and waved at him. After he turned to go to the kitchen, she turned to Lu Jin. “Dad, hurry up and eat. I have something to tell you.”

Lu Jin nodded and ate the bowl of sweet osmanthus rice wine sesame rice dumpling slowly. He wiped his mouth with a tissue in satisfaction, he said, “It’s fragrant, sweet, and not greasy. We can’t exaggerate. Objectively speaking, Shaoheng’s rice wine glutinous rice dumpling is indeed better than boss Lu’s.”

Gu Nianzhi nodded, she pointed at the bowl and said, “Huo Shao used the sweet osmanthus, and Lu used the dry osmanthus. Dry Osmanthus was lighter and more elegant. Sweet Osmanthus had a rich flavor and was more delicious to eat. I prefer sweet osmanthus-flavored rice wine glutinous rice balls. What About You?”

Lu Jin also said, “I have the same taste as my lady, and I also like the taste of Sweet Osmanthus.”

Both father and daughter were very happy to have reached an agreement.

While Huo Shaoheng was preparing lunch, Gu Nianzhi pushed Lu Jin’s arm and said, “Dad, do you want to go upstairs and wash up? I have something to tell you.”

Lu Jin didn’t want Huo Shaoheng to know about this, so he dragged her to his first-floor suite and asked, “What is it? Are you acting all mysterious? I washed up at Boss Lu’s place. You Don’t have to make excuses.”

Gu Nianzhi closed the door in embarrassment and whispered,”… It’s like this. I asked Ms. Song to help me yesterday and called Young Master He.”

Lu Jin was shocked. “Yesterday? When was that? ! Why didn’t I know? !”

“… After you went to rest.”Gu Nianzhi was embarrassed to say that Lu Jin had been drunk at the time, but Lu Jin understood now that she was being vague.

He rubbed the space between his eyebrows and said, “Didn’t you already call him? What else do you want?”

Gu Nianzhi walked over to Lu Jin and lowered her voice even more, “… I only spoke for less than ten minutes when I realized that something had happened to young master he. I used the last minute to call young master he’s fiancée, Xie qingying. In the end, Xie qingying said that she had broken off her engagement with young master he and had broken up.”

Lu Jin did not care about he zhichu’s love life at all. Of course, he was not aware that Xie qingying was his uncle at all. He said sharply, “So be it. Do I need you to send her a few red packets to celebrate?”

Gu Nianzhi:”…”

She was speechless.

She pursed her lips and continued to beg Lu Jin patiently, “Dad, don’t say that. Young master he is also… his mother’s son. Now that young master he’s father and mother are gone, he only has half a sister. How can I not care about him?”

Seeing that Lu Jin’s expression seemed to have softened, Gu Nianzhi continued to encourage him, she added, “Besides, he’s the only son of Barrister Qin Suwen. Even if it’s for the sake of Barrister Qin Suwen, don’t you want to help take care of her son?”

Gu Nianzhi’s last sentence moved Lu Jin.

However, he still had other things on his mind and nodded thoughtfully. “It’s good to keep in touch with young master he. If young master Huo does something to you, Daddy will take you back…”

He wanted to say “Marry young master he,”but when he saw Gu Nianzhi’s tall and straight eyebrows, he still didn’t say those words out loud.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t expect Lu Jin to have such an idea. She shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “Okay, don’t think too much. I just want to know what’s going on between young master he and Xie Qingying.”

“What’s the use of you figuring it out?”Lu Jin stared at her in confusion. “Are you trying to set them up and force them together?”

Gu Nianzhi shook her head, “Of course I’m not going to interfere with other people’s feelings. I just want to know if there was any conflict in there and if it affected young master he. I also want to comfort him and hope that he won’t be crushed by this.”

Lu Jin scoffed. “He’s a man. How could he be crushed by a breakup? What were you thinking?”

“But I heard that Xie Qingying was the one who broke up with him.”Gu Nianzhi was tough as well. She said angrily, “What’s wrong with my brother? How could she not want him? !”
