Chapter 151: Reminder!
Chapter 151: Reminder!
The old man pointed to the two people standing under the tree and said that, in his memory, the two people did not seem to be close enough to chat casually.
"Sigh~, the two of them saw this bunch of piglets and are discussing how to raise them. Lu Jing is raising the pigs with Qin Shuo, and hygiene alone is a big problem. The two of them are discussing how to arrange it."
"How else can we arrange this? I've already hired a professional team to take care of things here. Can they be any better than professionals? I need to go check on them, make sure these two don't sell my pigs!"
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he rushed over to the two of them again. The old man originally wanted to scold him a few more times, but after thinking about Ms. Song Yuan standing next to him, he sighed and said that children and grandchildren have their own destiny, and he should worry less about it!
"Let's go back and prepare properly so we can have a wonderful birthday celebration for you. Your mom left you a beautiful jade bracelet, so you can wear it later!"
"Jingtang heard that you were going to celebrate your birthday, so he bought a camera especially for today, just waiting to take lots of pictures for us later,"
"He also said he learned some atmospheric photography techniques, but I don't understand them. Let's wait and see how good his skills are! If he doesn't take good pictures, I'll tease him a bit!"
Ms. Song knew that the old man had always regretted that no one in the family had joined the army. Now that he had met Zhao Jingtang, who also had a military background, they had a lot to talk about. He was treating Zhao Jingtang as a close friend despite the age difference.
She also often takes care of Zhao Yu'an, treating the uncle and nephew like family. She said in a good mood, "Then I'm really looking forward to his fashion shoot!"
After a lively lunch, everyone went off to drink tea or take a walk, leaving only An'an, carrying her gluttonous cat and dog, curled up in her high chair, guarding the large birthday cake.
Seeing that Ms. Song Yuan had returned from her walk, she asked with bright eyes, "Grandma~, I helped Aunt Liu wipe the table~, can we sing the birthday song now?"
"I'm all ready! I can sing!"
"Our An'an is so great! Grandma wants to thank An'an for watching the cake for me!"
Ms. Song Yuan stepped forward and touched the little girl's tummy, finding it much softer. She then said, "Go upstairs and call your brother and Yu'an down. Let's cut the cake!"
"Yay! You glutton, let's go!"
Lu Junxing came over with a document and found that only a cat was left on the dining table. The troublesome cat that was waiting for cake was nowhere to be seen. Worried that something might have gone wrong, he went up to her and asked, "Mom! Have you seen where An'an went?"
“An’an kept thinking about eating cake, and she even ate less rice for lunch. I saw that she had digested it almost, so I let her go upstairs to call Yanzhou and the others!”
"I wonder what Yanzhou and Yu'an are upstairs doing? They went upstairs after dinner!"
She remembered that Lu Junxing had said he would be going on a business trip today, which was why they had moved the birthday banquet to noon so that the family could have a proper meal together. Now, looking at the documents in his hand, she couldn't help but ask:
Are you leaving soon?
"Yes! It's a bit urgent, I need to go over there! Everything's arranged!"
"An'an is going on a spring outing tomorrow, so I won't be taking her with me on this business trip. I'll explain that to her later, and I'll video call her tonight to put her to sleep."
"Please ask Aunt Liu to look after her more tonight. She doesn't sleep well at night, so don't set the air conditioner too low. She likes to kick off the covers! She's prone to catching colds!"
"Also, don't let her drink too much water before bed. If she wakes up in the middle of the night, read to her; she'll fall back asleep as soon as she hears a book! I found a copy of 'International Economics' in the study and put it on the bedside table! Feel free to call me anytime if you need anything!"
Listening to his concerned words, Ms. Song Yuan sighed with relief, realizing that her child had unknowingly become a good father. She nodded with satisfaction and replied:
"Don't worry, there are so many people in the family. As for you... if things get particularly tricky, remember to tell your family. Your father and I have quite a few connections over the years!"
This was the first time in his life that President Lu had faced such direct concern from Ms. Song Yuan. In the past, when he was a child, the most they would ask on the phone was, "How have you been lately?"
Now that he's grown up, hearing his parents' concern suddenly made him feel a little uncomfortable, so he casually nodded: "Oh, right! Tomorrow morning, just have Uncle Liu take An'an to Pingshan Park. An'an is going on a spring outing there tomorrow."
"It's closer to there from the old house, so I won't have to go all the way to the kindergarten anymore. I've already told the teacher! I also need to bring a water bottle and a lunchbox! I've already told Aunt Liu to help me prepare them, so just don't forget to bring them!"
When Lu Jing arrived, he heard Lu Junxing nagging on and on, which annoyed him to no end: "Alright, alright! Go do your own thing. I've already told you that the 10 billion yuan project is too risky, but you're too arrogant to listen and want to go and die!"
"Now look what happened! The internationally renowned expert we invited from afar was attacked on his way here. If this isn't handled properly, a leading figure in the field could be gone right here with us, and you'll become the culprit for their entire research field!"
"You'd better hurry up and make arrangements for everyone first! If you need any help, have Qin Feng pass on a message!"
"Still, be careful! Remember to have Qin Feng arrange the security!"
Recently busy cleaning up the mess at the Song family's place, Ms. Song Yuan, who hadn't had time to find out the details, was worried about Lu Junxing's safety upon hearing the situation: "Don't worry about An'an, I'm taking care of her! I'll put her to sleep tonight!"
Lu Jing: "Sigh~, then I'll personally take my precious grandson there tomorrow! I'll put the child to sleep tonight! Don't worry about this, go do what you need to do! I'm free tomorrow anyway, I'll just stay at that park and watch over her!"
Lu Junxing felt that Lu Jing still didn't understand his own abilities. This matter was indeed somewhat tricky, but it wasn't unsolvable. Seeing that Lu Jing had rarely offered to help, he didn't say anything more to him.
He simply handed the documents in his hand to Ms. Song Yuan and went upstairs, saying, "I'm going to check on An'an. Why hasn't she come down yet?"
After seeing the person go upstairs, before Ms. Song Yuan could even open the document, Lu Jing strolled over curiously and asked, "What did that kid give you? It was so mysterious!"
"!! It looks like an international shipping route!"
"Why would he give you this out of the blue? Didn't he recently shoot a set of emerald jewelry? I thought he was giving that to you as a birthday gift."
The Song Group was recently taken over by her nephew, and because many things were not handled properly, she has been worried about them. This transportation line just happens to be what she needs!
Ms. Song Yuan knew why, but she couldn't discuss these things with Lu Jing, since they had broken up when they were younger due to work-related conflicts.
In the past, both of them were busy with work and had no interest in matters of the heart, so their marital relationship became quite distant. Now, in recent years, the old man's health has deteriorated, and they often accompany him on his trips to recuperate.
She also accompanied the old man as he saw off several of her close friends. Having experienced the impermanence of life, she realized that they were no longer young, and the arguments of the past seemed meaningless.
