Chapter 454 A Jealous Old Man!
With the car sorted out, the next issue is accommodation.
Shen Li asked, "What do you think of your cousin's neighborhood?"
Over the years, Licheng Group has developed many properties, and each property has reserved a few high-quality units. For example, the community where Aunt Lanwei used to live is also where my cousin Shen Nuan lives.
Although that community was built ten years ago, its facilities and environment are in no way inferior to those of newer communities today.
Shen Li added, "I have three fully furnished apartments in that complex. You can have your father pick up the keys; they're ready to move in right away."
"If you get married in the future and want to live in a villa in the city, there are four villas reserved in the Imperial Garden area. They are still unfurnished, but if you want to live there, you can find someone to renovate them later. Actually, you can start renovating now, so you can move in directly after the wedding."
Thinking about this, her three sons are all quite old and could be home renovations.
We can move in after we get married.
Otherwise, the renovation will take a lot of time.
She never considered having her three sons live together.
After all, they will all need to settle down and start their own families in the future. Living in the same neighborhood will allow them to look out for each other.
There's no need to live together, to avoid conflicts.
In recent years, Shen Li has taken advantage of the booming real estate market.
They own a considerable amount of real estate and retail space, and are not worried at all about a future financial crisis.
She knew in her heart that even if a financial crisis occurred, the market would rebound in one or two years, or one or three years.
It will reach its peak in 2019. At that time, you can sell the property and exchange it for gold to steadily preserve its value.
Lu Boyi nodded and readily agreed, "Okay, then I'll stay in my older cousin's neighborhood for now. It's a ready-made apartment, so I won't have to worry about decorating it."
At this moment, Lu Cheng was standing on the second-floor balcony, quietly watching Shen Li talking to the children in the pavilion, his eyes full of tenderness.
He slowly walked downstairs and said softly, "Alright, it's getting late and it's getting cold. Go back inside and sleep. Don't catch a cold in the yard."
Lu Boyan looked down at his watch and said incredulously, "Dad, it's only eight o'clock! Isn't that way too early?"
He thought to himself: "Fine, they're all superfluous after all. Dad just doesn't like Mom spending too much time with them. He even 'monopolizes' this little bit of time together. What a jealous old man!"
Now, only Lu Cheng and Ming Xiangyang are at home with Shen Li. The two have always had a tacit understanding.
Normally, Shen Li would stay on one side of the bed for one night, without favoring either side.
Late at night, the bedroom was quiet.
Shen Li lay in Lu Cheng's arms, breathing in his familiar scent, feeling extremely at ease.
Lu Cheng gently stroked her long hair and spoke first, his tone gentle: "Don't worry too much about the second son's affairs. Young people have their own lives to live and should learn to bear the consequences themselves."
Shen Li looked up at him, a hint of worry in her eyes: "I'm just worried that he's too naive and might get fooled by some girl, and then he'll be the one who gets hurt."
Lu Cheng lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.
He said calmly, "It's okay to be cheated. Learn from your mistakes and you won't repeat them."
Shen Li frowned, feigning anger, and said, "You really don't love children at all? Don't you feel sorry for him?"
What if I suffer a big loss once and then stop liking girls?
Lu Cheng tightened his arms, holding her even closer, his tone carrying a hint of possessiveness.
With a hint of doting, she said, "The children come second; you come first. If you utter a single word of disagreement, I'll make sure the second son breaks up with that girl immediately, without hesitation."
Shen Li smiled helplessly and gently patted his chest: "That won't do. Kids this age are going through a rebellious phase. The more you forbid them from being together, the more they'll want to be together, and that will only make things more complicated."
Lu Cheng was amused by his wife's insightful yet helpless expression.
He lowered his head and pinched her cheek, his tone ambiguous: "Alright, let's not talk about them anymore. In my bed, you can't think about other men."
Shen Li: "......"
As he spoke, he lowered his head and gently kissed her lips.
The atmosphere in the bedroom instantly became tender and gentle.
Shen Li sighed helplessly.
Ming Xiangyang always says that moderate sexual activity helps women maintain their youth; I wonder if that's an absurd and ridiculous statement.
But she herself has always been in good spirits, especially her beautiful black hair, which is smooth and shiny, showing no signs of aging.
She gazed at Lu Cheng, who was working exceptionally hard beside her, and her thoughts suddenly drifted away.
For some reason, the term "medicinal guide" came to mind.
As Lu Cheng leaned down, he caught a glimpse of her lost in thought.
A mischievous glint flashed in his eyes, his movements grew increasingly heated, and he asked, slightly breathless, "Who are you thinking about?"
Shen Li looked up, reached out and hooked her arm around his neck, giving him a burning kiss, her voice soft and tender: "I was thinking of you."
Lu Cheng then relaxed his brows and eyes, which were full of doting smiles.
In middle age, people often understand each other's feelings better than when they were younger.
Gone is the youthful naiveté and impetuousness of the past, replaced by a deeper understanding and passion born from experience. This sense of stability is truly wonderful.
She occasionally overheard Yao Fen and others complaining that their men were getting older.
My energy levels are much lower than before; sexual intercourse only lasts about ten minutes.
He only attends social events two or three times a month, and is constantly busy with social engagements, so he's long since lost his former appearance.
Shen Li was never good at responding—she, Lu Cheng, and Ming Xiangyang could only talk for half an hour at most, and they were still full of energy.
She secretly pondered that perhaps it was indeed the medicinal cuisine that Ming Xiangyang had been meticulously preparing for many years that had worked.
What's even more remarkable is that all three of them are extremely well-preserved, showing no signs of losing their looks over time.
In contrast, Zhang Wei and Xia Jiang had long since become overweight and out of shape, with large bellies, sometimes making them almost unbearable to look at.
It looked just like those class reunion videos on TikTok, with a table full of men shirtless and each with a round belly, instantly killing any interest.
But Lu Cheng and his group are different; even now...
She still maintains a regular exercise routine, and her firm abdominal muscles have not diminished, although her skin is slightly looser than when she was younger.
To talk about the best-maintained
The eldest brother, Lu Sheng, is fifty years old.
His skin remained firm and smooth, a healthy tan complementing his muscular physique.
Her charm remains undiminished; she is still the same captivating woman she was back then.
Just as my thoughts were racing, the phone on the bedside table suddenly rang.
Shen Li reached out to answer, and when she saw the caller ID, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She said softly, "It's my older brother."
Just as I was thinking of him, the phone rang.
Lu Cheng didn't stop, his breath hot as he said, "Catch it."
Shen Li felt weak all over from his touch, her voice trembling slightly: "Mmm~~~~Okay~~~~~" She pressed the answer button, but was interrupted by a slight tremor as she began to speak: "Feed...Big...Brother......."
Lu Sheng paused for a moment on the other end of the phone before slowly speaking in a low voice: "Lili, are you with Lu Cheng or Ming Xiangyang?"
Shen Li gave a soft hum, her tone tinged with a hint of coquettishness: "He's...with Second Brother...ah..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Cheng suddenly teased her on purpose, and Shen Li couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, her voice becoming increasingly trembling.
