Chapter 460 I want to inspect it myself
Lu Boxi looked embarrassed and quickly explained, "Mom, Yizhi just arrived and isn't familiar with anything. I'll take her back to her room first, and then I'll come over to hear what you have to say, okay?"
Shen Li remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay."
Lu Boxi immediately accompanied Zhao Yizhi to Lu Zhi's courtyard.
Lu Zhi watched the two figures disappear into the distance and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
With a hint of exasperation in her voice, she said, "Mom, I'm going back to my room too."
Shen Li waved his hand: "Go."
Standing to the side, Lu Boyan looked at his second brother's clueless expression.
He sighed inwardly: He really didn't know how his second brother managed to survive in the entertainment industry. If it weren't for the family's protection...
They've probably been devoured by people in the industry long ago, leaving not even a trace.
His mother's expression was so obvious, how could he not notice at all?
Shen Li didn't say anything more, and waved to the remaining two: "You should both go back and rest."
Lu Boyan nodded quickly: "Okay, Mom, Aunt, we'll head back now."
Lu Boyi nodded slightly: "Yes, Mother."
The two walked side by side towards their small courtyard. They had only taken a few steps when...
Lu Boyan couldn't help but sidle up to Lu Boyi and whisper, "Big brother, I seriously suspect that back in the womb, you absorbed all of Second Brother's nutrients?"
Lu Boyi glanced at him sideways.
His tone carried a hint of teasing: "You're all alone, yet I haven't absorbed much at all?"
Lu Boyan snorted defiantly, "That's still better than Second Brother! At least I could tell Mom's attitude and knew she didn't like Zhao Yizhi. But he was like a heartless person the whole time."
Lu Boyi paused, his expression gradually calming down, and he said nothing more.
Lu Boyan quickly caught up with him, his face full of curiosity as he asked, "Big brother, why does Mom dislike Zhao Yizhi? Is it because of her family background?"
Lu Boyi stopped and looked at him seriously, his tone grave: "Compared to family background, Mother values character more. So when you look for a girlfriend in the future, you must find someone with good character, sound values, who can see things clearly, and who shares your interests."
"Most importantly, I can get along well with my mother and respect each other."
Lu Boyan blinked, somewhat surprised: "That's all the requirements? Don't you care about education or family background?"
Lu Boyi shook his head: "No need. This is what my mother said herself. She doesn't care about those external things. She just hopes that we can find someone who is sincere to us and can live a stable life with us."
Lu Boyan nodded as if he understood, "Okay, I'll remember."
On the other side, Shen Li and Lu Nan were still chatting idly in the courtyard.
Before they knew it, more than half an hour had passed before Lu Boxi slowly walked over.
Shen Li looked up at him, her expression clearly darkening.
She stared at him sharply, her tone stern: "How you two get along outside is your business, I don't care and I can't interfere. But at home, you must know your limits and understand the rules."
"Besides, the two families haven't officially met yet. After all, she's just a guest visiting our home. Do you understand what I mean?"
Lu Boxi looked puzzled, even somewhat resistant: "Mom, why are you so old-fashioned? What era are we living in? It's normal for boyfriends and girlfriends to take care of each other."
Shen Li was too lazy to waste words with him, her tone indifferent yet full of intimidation: "If you continue to be so clueless, you can forget about your newly bought sports car."
Lu Boxi's face immediately fell, looking aggrieved: "Mom, you can't threaten people like that!"
Shen Li raised an eyebrow, her tone still indifferent: "I'll ask you one more time, did she explicitly say she wanted to marry you?"
Lu Boxi paused, scratched his head, and said somewhat vaguely, "We're still young. She said the most important thing right now is to focus on our careers. We can talk about marriage later."
Shen Li nodded: "I agree that you should focus on your careers first."
Good men are rare, so keep them hanging on!
You'll know from now on that if you keep hanging on, it'll eventually disappear.
Instead of hanging on and waiting to find someone better.
Lu Boxi looked surprised, clearly not expecting her to say that: "Mom, you...you're not pressuring us to get married anymore?"
Shen Li smiled faintly, her tone calm: "No rush. Relationships can't be rushed. Take your time, see each other's feelings clearly, and make sure you're the one to spend your life with before talking about marriage."
Lu Boxi breathed a sigh of relief, his face lighting up with joy: "Great, Mom! I'll go back to my room to rest now!"
After saying that, he hurriedly ran away, afraid that Shen Li would change his mind.
Watching his retreating figure,
Lu Nan couldn't help but sigh.
Her tone was full of emotion: "Being a parent is so hard. They're so anxious because their son can't find a wife."
"I found one, but I'm not satisfied with it, and I'm getting anxious and frustrated. It's a dilemma."
Shen Li picked up the teacup on the table, took a small sip,
He joked with a laugh, "What's so difficult about that? If they're really not satisfied, we can just have them move out. Out of sight, out of mind, it'll be much quieter."
Lu Nan's eyes lit up, and she gave Shen Li a thumbs up.
With a look of admiration, she said, "Sister Li, you have such great courage! I couldn't be so decisive."
Just then, Lu Sheng walked over and saw the two chatting enthusiastically.
He smiled and asked, "What are you talking about? You seem so engrossed in your conversation that I could hear you from the doorway."
Lu Nan turned to look at him and immediately teased with a smile, "Oh my, are you jealous, big brother? Do you think I'm hogging your sister-in-law and interfering with your time together?"
Lu Sheng glanced helplessly at his younger sister.
His tone was a mix of indulgent reproach: "Good that you know. It's late, go home and stop being a third wheel. You should go to sleep."
Lu Nan pursed her lips and deliberately dragged out her words: "Forget it, I'd better be sensible and leave quickly, lest you all look down on me."
After saying that, he smiled and turned to leave the courtyard.
After Lu Nan left, Shen Li stood up and naturally took Lu Sheng's arm: "Let's go back to our room too."
The two returned to the room side by side. As soon as they entered, Shen Li saw that Lu Zhou had already finished showering.
He was shirtless, leaning against the headboard, holding a book in his hand, with a lazy and handsome look in his eyes.
Hearing the noise, Lu Zhou looked up at the two of them, a roguish smile playing on his lips.
Her tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction and a touch of coquettishness: "You finally decided to come back? I've been waiting for you guys in bed for ages, I almost fell asleep."
Shen Li smiled and stepped forward, poking his chest with her finger, her tone ambiguous: "What? So eager, are you waiting for me to favor you?"
A burning glint flashed in Lu Zhou's eyes as he extended his tongue and gently licked his back teeth.
His tone was languid and ambiguous: "You guessed right, I was just waiting to be pampered by you."
That mischievous grin was enough to make anyone's heart itch.
A sly glint flashed in Shen Li's eyes. She deliberately sighed, her tone helpless: "What a pity, my period just started, so I can't pamper you."
Lu Zhou immediately sat up, his face full of disbelief, and raised an eyebrow, saying, "I don't believe it. Words are not enough; I want to check it myself."
Before he finished speaking, he threw off the covers, got out of bed, and strode towards Shen Li.
