Chapter 223 Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing

After getting married, Xu Hongdou's personality changed a little, especially after taking charge of several hotels. She became more and more imposing and more like a wealthy lady than her sister.

Moreover, after a period of conditioning after marriage, Xu Hongdou's physical condition has also improved significantly.

After Lu Cheng made some progress in scientific research, his family members were the first to enjoy the benefits. Chen Nanxing, who had always been with Lu Cheng, also received special treatment from Lu Cheng, and his physical condition also improved significantly.

Even Xu Hongdou's parents have shown great improvement in their health, as if they are ten years younger.

Eldest sister Xu Hongmi and her brother-in-law also eliminated their sub-health conditions. Eldest sister Xu Hongmi even became pregnant again and will give birth to her second child in a few months.

Xu's parents were naturally quite satisfied with Lu Cheng. The only thing they were not satisfied with was that Xu Hongdou had not yet become pregnant.

In fact, it’s not really Xu Hongdou and Lu Cheng’s fault for not working hard. Rather, Lu Cheng was focused on improving Xu Hongdou’s physique and was not in a hurry to have a child.

Once you become pregnant, many Chinese herbal medicines cannot be used casually, and the process of regulating your body will also be interrupted.

However, Xu Hongdou has made considerable progress today compared to half a year ago, with obvious improvements in both physical strength and endurance.

Of course, there are still some shortcomings in some aspects, and I often fail and have to learn new knowledge to make up for my shortcomings.

Xu Hongdou naturally knew how good Lu Cheng was to her, and she wanted to work harder to repay Lu Cheng.

Outside, Xu Hongdou has been able to manage several hotels very well. She gave all the revenue to Lu Cheng for research. She only kept some money for living expenses and some pocket money for herself and did not care much about money.

On the other hand, Chen Nanxing has also grown into a suitable assistant, coordinating Lu Cheng's scientific research and management work quite well. Even the two funds specially established by Lu Cheng are managed by Chen Nanxing.

It can be said that both women have made great progress in their careers and can both be said to be good assistants to Lu Cheng.

In life, Xu Hongdou fully fulfilled her duties as a wife. She was capable of both being a lady in the living room and cooking in the kitchen. She could manage various social engagements and play the role of the hostess of the Lu Group. She could also manage her subordinates and make them sincerely convinced.

Chen Nanxing has been silently supporting Lu Cheng and accompanying Xu Hongdou. Xu Hongdou once invited Chen Nanxing to live in Lu's house, but was rejected by Chen Nanxing. Chen Nanxing did not want to affect the relationship between Xu Hongdou and Lu Cheng, and was afraid that he could not control his feelings.

Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing have been sisters for more than ten years, so she naturally saw that Chen Nanxing still had feelings for Lu Cheng, which is why she did not go looking for her own love.

Xu Hongdou saw this and naturally felt a little distressed.

On this day, while Lu Cheng was busy with scientific research, Xu Hongdou invited Chen Nanxing to live in the courtyard house on Nanchizi Street. The two sisters had not slept in the same bed for a long time and planned to live together for two days.

After all, Xu Hongdou really couldn't stand Lu Cheng's obsession, and she also wanted to hide away for two days.

At night, the two sisters finished washing and lying together. Xu Hongdou looked at Chen Nanxing sideways, and after hesitating for a moment, she said, "Nannan, are you still unable to let go of Lu Cheng?"

"I haven't, it just...it just needs some time."

"Nannan, you can't hide what you're thinking from me. We've known each other since college, and it's been fifteen years now, right? How many fifteen years can a person have in their lifetime? In these fifteen years, we've gone from being best classmates to best friends to the closest sisters, sharing the joys and sorrows of life together. I've already considered you my own sister."

"I know. I am the only one in our family, and I have already regarded you as my own sister."

Indeed, there are very few friends in life who can stay together for more than fifteen years, and both of them cherish this sisterhood very much.

"Nannan, I was able to meet Lu Cheng thanks to you. Without you, perhaps Lu Cheng and I would be like two parallel lines that would never intersect. It would be even more impossible for us to become a couple. Perhaps, without me, you and Lu Cheng would be able to be together,"

"Hongdou, don't think too much. This is not your fault, I can only blame myself. I shouldn't have met such an outstanding person at this age and moved my heart. What's more, even if I wasn't there, you and Lu Cheng would have met sooner or later, fallen in love, and come together."

"That's different..." In fact, at the beginning, Xu Hongdou could also feel that Lu Cheng was not completely unmoved by Chen Nanxing. If it weren't for her, perhaps Lu Cheng would really get together with Chen Nanxing.

Xu Hongdou even put herself in Chen Nanxing's shoes and imagined that if she were in Chen Nanxing's position, watching Lu Cheng walking together with her good sister, and she also fell in love with Lu Cheng, how would she deal with it?

There will never be an answer to this question, and there are not so many ifs in this world.

Lu Cheng's usual kindness to Xu Hongdou made Xu Hongdou feel indebted. In addition, she could not satisfy Lu Cheng in some aspects, and seeing that her good sister still had feelings for Lu Cheng, Xu Hongdou began to have some special thoughts in her heart.

Xu Hongdou has now come into contact with some wealthy wives in the upper class, and knows how much some rich people spend their money. In order to continue to maintain a decent life, those wealthy wives will turn a blind eye. This has also touched Xu Hongdou.

Once some ideas come into being, no matter how outrageous they are, they will always pop up in your mind from time to time.

"Nannan, what are you going to do in the future? You can't stay single forever, right?"

"What's wrong with being single? I'm busy at work now. Being your husband's assistant isn't easy. He's a hands-off boss. I have to worry about a lot of things, and you don't even bother."

"I have no idea how to manage so many businesses at home. I have tried my best to manage those hotels. Nan Nan, don't change the subject. We are talking about your lifelong event."

"I haven't thought too much about my lifelong event. Now I am healthy, I have no illnesses or disasters, I earn more money, and my living conditions are better. I can give my parents some money every month, so they can live without worries. I am very satisfied with this kind of life. As for the future, I haven't thought about it. Maybe I will always be single, or maybe one day I will find a man who is neither good nor bad and spend the rest of my life with him."

After hearing this, Xu Hongdou suddenly felt sad. It was hard to imagine that her good sister would just marry someone casually. That was definitely not the life she wanted. Maybe she would really stay single forever.

If I had never met someone I liked, would I still be unwilling to give in and spend my whole life alone? Would my parents and family be able to accept this?

That night, the two sisters talked a lot and didn't go to bed until very late.

Two days later, Xu Hongdou returned to the courtyard behind the Pudu Temple. At night, she was tormented by Lu Cheng again. She lay in Lu Cheng's arms until she was exhausted and said, "Lu Cheng, what do you think of Nan Nan? If I hadn't been there, would you have been with Nan Nan?"

"Nanxing is also very good. As for whether we will be together, I can't say. There are not so many ifs in life."

"Then what if I say..."
