egant and refined. When placed together, they surprisingly harmonized.When Shu Tinglan arrived at the law firm, Lin Zhi's post on social media had received countless likes. They had many mutual friend...Lu Kuo might just be saying it out of habit, he's not really serious about marriage and children. Ultimately, it's up to Ruan Ruan to decide what she wants.
Marriage is a must, but having children isn't something we need to rush. After all, Ruanruan's career has just begun, and we don't want to hold her back. Being together only adds value, not subtracts from either of us.
On the way home from Mori's place, both of them were feeling a bit restless in the car. But after encountering Gu Ruandong and Yao Yao in the elevator, they calmed down instead.
After she got home, Ruan Ruan silently moved her wash bag from the living room bathroom to the master bedroom bathroom. She took out her toiletries and neatly arranged them on the countertop. Then she put her cup next to Lu Kuo's cup. Looking at everything in pairs, she smiled to herself.
When I came out of the master bedroom, I saw Lu Kuo was actually busy in the kitchen.
Failure is the mother of success, Lu Kuo didn't believe he couldn't make a flavor that Ruan Ruan liked, so he stuck with those cured meats, even running to a restaurant a few days ago to learn from the private chef.
Ruannuan just smiled, walked to his side, automatically went to wash and cook the rice, then went to the fridge to get vegetables and eggs, planning to stir-fry some vegetables and make a bowl of egg soup. Although she rarely cooked, she wasn't completely clueless.
Two people worked together, very smoothly. After almost an hour of work, a meat dish, a vegetarian dish, and a soup were served on the table.
Lu Kuo this time didn't let Ruan Ruan taste first, he himself took a bite of the vegetables Ruan Ruan had stir-fried, his expression exaggerated.
Perfect!
Ruan Ruan also took a piece of the cured pork he made, took a bite, the aroma of cured meat was strong, it was soft and tender just right, and it wasn't salty at all. She also gave him a thumbs up, imitating his tone: Perfect!
Lu Kuo burst into laughter: Wait a moment, let's eat later.
I'll take a picture and send it to Zhuo Yunan.
Not only did she post a picture, but she also specifically circled the vegetables Ruanruan had cooked and the egg soup she had made, writing in a particularly eye-catching font: "Made by my teacher Gu".
Strange and boastful arrogance.
Ruan Ruan didn't understand what there was to brag about, only Zhuo Yu An understood. This guy was bragging that Ruan Ruan could cook, while Ting Lan couldn't.
If it were any other time, Zhuo Yu'an would have simply smiled and ignored Lu Kuo's boastfulness. But to dare to criticize Tinglan, he couldn't just let it slide. Coincidentally, he saw Tinglan playing games with two little children in the toy room, so he took a picture of the three of them and sent it to Lu Kuo.
In their circle, Zhuo Yu'an was the first to get married, and his children were also the oldest, twins no less, a true winner in life.
Lu Kuo saw the photo, and with a snap, he flipped his phone over onto the table, out of sight.
Two big men, when talking about their wives, are still childishly naive.
When going to sleep that night, Lu Kuo said very seriously to Ruan Ruan, "Ruan Ruan, in the future, we should actively respond to the national call and contribute more to our motherland."
Ruan Ruan looked utterly confused.
He said, “We must have three children.”
Ruannuan instantly understood and, instead of being angry, just smiled and said, "Honey, I suggest you go with Mr. Zhuo and have a baby with him."
Just moments ago, Lu Kuo, who was still smiling and joking, pulled her into his arms and held her tightly. He said frankly: "It's strange. I used to dislike children very much. Even my fondness for Shu Xiaohua and Shu Xiaonian stemmed more from the fact that they were Zhuo Yu'an and Tinglan's children. I thought being child-free was great, but Ruan Ruan, after being with you, I started looking forward to having children of our own. A boy or a girl..."
Do I look more like you or like me
"Ruannuan, do you think my idea is strange I myself find it unbelievable. It's not because I'm getting older, nor is it because grandpa is urging me, nor is it because of Zhuo Yu'an's influence. It's simply that I want a child with you."
Even a year ago, if you had asked him if he wanted a child of his own, he would have steered clear of the topic.
He was talking to her seriously, but the person in his arms started to tremble with laughter. He lifted her head and saw that she was indeed smiling.
"I'm being serious," Lu Kuo said.
"I know, and I'm thinking about it seriously too. I think what you said is feasible." Ruan Ruan still smiled, her eyes shining brightly at him.
Lu Kuò's heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean"
"Just try making a baby then." Ruanruan was still very proactive. On the surface, their relationship seemed like Lu Kuo was in control, but in reality, an invisible thread always remained in Ruanruan's hand.
She said she wanted to pursue him. She said she didn't want to be in a relationship without clarity, she wanted a clear answer. She said she was willing to have children.
Lu Kuo seemed to be following her rhythm all along, unconsciously falling deeper and deeper into it.
She said she could try to have a baby, but when he was serious, Lu Kuo shook his head again. It wasn't because he was scared or still hesitant, but because he didn't want to hold her back.
"In two years, when your work is on a more stable track, we can consider having a child."
Reproduction doesn't really affect men, especially those from wealthy backgrounds like Lu Kuò. But it has a profound impact on women, so he was genuinely considering things from her perspective.
To be cherished, respected, and put first—Ruann felt touched. She took the initiative to kiss Lu Kuo. Her thoughts and Lu Kuo's...
On the contrary, if something is planned, it's better to do it sooner rather than later.
Her work at school was just starting out, and she decided to take care of her life's major events during this initial phase. The impact on her career from doing so was far less significant than if she had chosen to have children after achieving a certain level of success.
"If I were two years later, then Mr. Zhuo's two kids would be much older by then." Ruan Ruan said.
"Then let those two little imps take care of the kids, and we can continue our world of two." Lu Kuo thought quite beautifully.
The two discussed at length whether or not they should have a child right away, completely forgetting that they were not legally allowed to have one yet.
Gu Ruandong's military film finished shooting last month, and Dongyang Film & Television has been working hard to edit it this month. They have already signed agreements with major cinema chains and decided to release it nationwide next month.
To be honest, Gu Ruandong's primary motivation for making this film at first was to win over his grandfather's favor. However, with each visit to the veterans to learn about their experiences and with each trip between Senzhou and the northwest, retracing his grandfather's arduous past, a feeling gradually emerged that was no longer solely driven by winning over his grandfather. It had become more about admiration and reverence for his grandfather, for that era, and for that land.
The person who was most delighted that the film wrapped successfully was Lu Yaoyao. She went to the screening room to watch the rough cut and was moved to tears, because before this, her grandfather in her heart was just a doting and loving grandfather, an ordinary old man. But now, for the first time, she had such a comprehensive and three-dimensional understanding of her grandfather's past, only then did she realize that he wasn't just her grandfather, but also a hero, very great.
She daily dragged Gu Ruandong and asked.
"When are you going to let grandpa see it"
I can't wait to show Grandpa, and I want everyone to see it. since he last saw her like this, so unguarded around him.So he stayed by her side at that rather messy table, not even letting the waiter come in to clear it away. After a while, she leaned on the ta...
