Like that, happy times is always short.

 

Gu Yixin looked at it and suddenly said, “It would have been great if Jiujin was also here.”

Lu Mingshi was taken aback for a moment and was instantly touched by the sorrow. He nodded.

“Missing the baby.”

“Missing the baby.”

The two people looked at each other, coincidently took out their cell phones in unison, and clicked on the photo album.

Both of them had one dedicated photo album of the baby on their phones. For these two novice silly fathers, every movement of their child Lu Jiujin was filled with the charm of human babies.

Raising a baby is a hard job, and it is inevitable that first-time parents will have the feeling of “I really want to live in a two-person world1world with only two people (usually refers to a romantic couple) / romantic couple’s world”. But when you have a child, you have something to be concerned about. After leaving him for a long time, the two of them began to feel depressed and started missing him incessantly.

Especially Lu Mingshi. It went without saying that the baby was given birth by himself. After he was born, for the majority of these more than two months, he was taken care of and carried by himself [LM]. After carrying him for about eight months and two months, it could be said that his child, Lu Jiujin had been by his side for almost a year.

Once separated, he was really sad.

Lu Mingshi felt a sense of loss and asked, “Why didn’t we bring the baby?”

Gu Yixin also said gloomily, “Because the organizers do not allow minors to board the ship.”

The two people flipped through the photo album, mutually laughing at each other’s photography skills. More than two hours passed without them knowing. The sunshine had gradually inclined toward the west, and finally, the glow of the sunset dyed the sea level red, making the azure sea looked glorious.

The women’s clothing had been rubbed too much that it could not be worn anymore. So Lu Mingshi put on his shirt and tie.

Gu Yixin propped up his chin and admired the president changing clothes.

“There is a ball in the evening.” Lu Mingshi said all of a sudden while arranging his tie in front of the mirror.

Gu Yixin raised his eyebrows, “I can’t dance.”

Lu Mingshi raised his eyebrow in surprise and sized up at Gu Yixin through the mirror, “I don’t believe it. Is there really something in this world that you can’t do?”

 

Gu Yixin embarrassedly said, “You can’t always praise me like this. I will get arrogant.”

“I’m not afraid of you being arrogant.” Lu Mingshi casually said. He pulled the slight folds of the cuffs to make it proper and asked Gu Yixin after turning around, “How do I look?”

Gu Yixin looked down from his broad shoulders, scanning the narrowed waistline and the texture of his trousers with his eyes. Lu Mingshi’s handsome and gentle face took on an enquiring look and he adjusted the position of his tie knot with one while keeping the other in his pocket. Under beautifully boned fingers, the man’s Adam’s apple was sometimes obscured by his movements, and sometimes appeared in front of Gu Yixin’s eyes.

Gu Yixin slowly blinked. His voice contained a bizarre calmness, “I suspect that you are trying to seduce me.”

Lu Mingshi looked at him innocently, loosened the knot of his tie a little, and glanced down as if thinking about something. But he didn’t answer immediately.

It was like trying to defend himself, but it was also like admitting it.

“Then.” Lu Mingshi asked after a long time, “Did I succeed?”

He walked over to Gu Yixin sitting in front of the glass scuttle and Gu Yixin extended his hand toward him.

They stepped into the restaurant an hour late. The two strictly followed the principle of not knowing each other, leaving the door of their room with a time difference of five minutes. So when Gu Yixin just entered the restaurant, Lu Mingshi had already sat down with a menu for a while.

The waiter in the restaurant led Gu Yixin to his seat. With the idea of “letting Lu Mingshi play freely”, Gu Yixin chose a very distant window seat.

The waiter laid down the menu and habitually prepared to leave first to let the guest slowly think over what to order.

But Gu Yixin never looked through the menu when ordering.

The way he ordered was to order the first dish on the menu from top to bottom and from left to right. Because he believed that a majority of restaurants put their signature dishes at the front. Such as the beef ramen in the Lanzhou Ramen, or the yellow braised chicken and rice in yellow braised chicken and rice.

As a result, even though he arrived five minutes late, he decided on dinner earlier than Lu Mingshi.

After the waiter left, Gu Yixin looked around in boredom. And he saw Lu Mingshi being constantly surrounded by people who were coming to strike up a conversation.

Lu Mingshi rejected one boy and one girl after another. On ffeeling quite overwhelmed, he gradually became restless in his seat. He absent-mindedly looked for Gu Yixin in the hall and finally walked over after finding him.

Gu Yixin said in his heart: Don’t. I just wanted to let you enjoy a pleasant journey without any burden or pressure where no one knows you.

 

Lu Mingshi politely asked Gu Yixin if he had any companions and Gu Yixin replied, “My wife is not feeling well. So she is resting in the room.”

Lu Mingshi showed a regretful expression on his face and at the same time wished a speedy recovery to Gu Yixin’s wife. Gu Yixin thanked him.

The two “strangers” who “met for the irst time” at the restaurant quickly became good friends.

The Gambling King had all along been observing them secretly through a camera lens.

Ten minutes later, he immediately sent a signal to his son on seeing the new friend of Mr. Rothschild leaving the table and going to the bathroom.

Gu Yixin was in the middle of eating his seafood platter when he suddenly felt a fragrant breeze brushing lightly over his side. Following this, a young girl wearing a pink princess tutu dress with a deep V neckline2 that revealed her cleavage shyly pulled out another chair and sat next to Lu Mingshi’s seat and diagonally opposite Gu Yixin’s seat.

“3He is talking in a polite tone.Is there no one here?” An Luoyu asked in a low voice, pinching his throat, “I’m sorry. There are too many people in the restaurant. There is no other place and I can only sit next to you. In order to make up for your displeasure, let me buy you a drink.”

Soon after he said that a waiter served a glass of dark purple fruit wine that was still bubbling4I could imagine some kind of a potion while TLing this. and shimmering with gold dust.

The Gambling King sent someone to stall Mr. Rothschild’s new friend. So when Lu Mingshi wandered slowly to the door of the bathroom, there was actually a long line in front of the gent’s toilet that hadn’t been occupied in years.

Gu Yixin almost immediately raised his hand and pinched his nose. He desperately told himself to maintain a gentleman’s demeanor, and politely said while trying his best to hold back the impulse, “But……” There were obviously a lot of empty seats. If you are sitting here, my wife will not be happy when he comes back.

However, he got stuck as soon as he started the sentence.

Gu Yixin stared in horror at the beauty wearing a princess dress who was sitting opposite him with shy and drooping eyes. WTF, isn’t this An Luoyu?

He had obviously appeared in the afternoon. From where did he get the confidence that I wouldn’t recognize him after he change his clothes?

Gu Yixin’s shocked gaze fell on the deep V on An Luoyu’s chest. This was too much dedication. It idn’t look like anything was stuffed in. It should have been forcibly stretched taught with a strong tape……

Great, great work.

An Luoyu waved in front of him anxiously, “Sir, sir?”

Gu Yixin fell into pondering.

 

He had once worked with An Luoyu for a few weeks. But he had never discovered that the protagonist shou had an interest in women’s clothing. Sure enough, everyone had a secret that was buried and concealed at the bottom of their hearts.

Gu Yixin felt that he should respect the likes of others. So he decided not to put it out bluntly.

“Sit down. We’ll finish eating in a while. It won’t get in the way.” Gu Yixin said politely, “But I don’t need this glass of wine……”

An Luoyu was anxious, “Please, you must drink it.”

“I don’t like it……” Gu Yixin blinked and asked, “Why do I have to drink it?”

Because this was a glass of wine that can make you fall in love with the first person you see after you finish it up —

An Luoyu didn’t dare to utter a word.

This was the ultimate task given to him by his father to take care of Mr. Rothschild. Or else he wanted An Luoyu to quit the entertainment industry and come back to inherit the family business.

How could he steel himself to give up when he loved acting so much!

An Luoyu stammered, “This, this wine is not an ordinary wine. It has magical effects and can improve the state of a person. All states. And of course, it will mainly be the aspect that you needed most urgently.”

Of course, what people who got on the gambling boat needed the most was to win money and this was what An Luoyu wanted to mislead Mr. Rothschild with.

But Gu Yixin looked at An Luoyu’s expression and coupled with his sure understanding of the key tone of this book, he almost immediately determined that this glass of wine was bound to be an aphrodisiac, without any doubt!

Gu Yixin calmly pushed away the cup with an index finger, “Thank you. But I am a prohibitionist.”

Lu Mingshi who for some unknown reason, always had trouble with the gent’s toilet after getting on board, looked at his watch impatiently.

Wasn’t it usually the women’s toilet that lines up? Why was there a long line in the gent’s toilet today?

Lu Mingshi grabbed a bald man, “Brother, you have already cut in the line three times while I was not paying attention!”

Lu Mingshi couldn’t wait anymore. So he decided to go out of the restaurant to another toilet that was ten minutes away.

 

When he returned to the restaurant, An Luoyu had already sat next to Gu Yixin and was diligently persuading him while holding up the glass of wine.

“This glass of wine is just called wine by its name.” An Luoyu tried his best to explain, “It doesn’t actually contain any alcohol. So you can consume it with confidence.”

Gu Yixin thought to himself: I am not at all at ease, okay? If it weren’t for not wanting to expose my strength in front of your father in advance, you would have already been beaten to the ground.

There was an explosion in Lu Mingshi’s mind. In his eyes, a strange woman was pressing up against Gu Yixin and her chest almost rubbed against his arm.

He walked forward angrily and shouted, “Stop!”

An Luoyu’s hands shook in fear and the purple sparkling wine in the cup sprayed out.

Gu Yixin deftly dodged the misfortune. But An Luoyu was not so lucky and was spilled on by the wine on his face.

An Luoyu was in a daze and didn’t even dare to open his eyes. He stretched out his hand and fumbled for a napkin on the table to wipe his face as if he was blind.

After groping around and not finding a napkin, he actually heard Lu Mingshi ask bluntly, “What do you want to give Mr. Rothschild to drink? Are you trying to poison him?”

An Luoyu subconsciously opened his mouth to defend himself, “I didn’t……”

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, the tip of his tongue felt a trace of sweetness. An Luoyu’s brain exploded with a bang and the whole person crashed.

An Luoyu was almost about to cry. But he didn’t even dare to cry, for fear that he would accidentally open his eyes when he cried. And then……

Who knows who he will see? Maybe it’s a random person. Maybe it’s a married person Maybe it’s a gangster…… Then wouldn’t the brilliant and wonderful life that he had not even started to enjoy yet will all be ruined?

The more An Luoyu thought about it, the more scared he became. He finally touched the napkin and did not wipe his eyes. He directly put the napkin over his head and ran away in a panic.
