Chapter 351: Drink until We Drop

The people in the photo were all top students in their class back then. They were all elites in society now. The most dazzling person was still Lu An. He was handsome and high-spirited. He had his arm around Jin Nian’s shoulder. There was a faint smile on his lips.
The group chat instantly exploded with praises for Jin Nian and Lu An.
“Wow! The school hunk Lu is still as handsome as ever!”
“I beg Young Master Lu to help me!”
When Lu An was in school, everyone knew that he was a rich second-generation heir. However, he kept a low profile and never exposed his identity. It was only after graduation that everyone realized that Lu An was not an ordinary rich second-generation heir. He was Lu Zhengze’s son. Moreover, he had established his company after graduation and had even started an investment business in Country M. In short, Lu An was a god in their hearts.
Seeing that everyone was talking about him, Lu An casually sent a red packet to the group. Everyone grabbed for it and sent a bunch of thank you messages.
Jin Nian scrolled through the messages on her phone and sent an emoticon with a smile. Then, she looked at Lu An beside her.
“Honey, aren’t you hungry? Eat more.” Lu An picked up some food for Jin Nian and started peeling prawns for her.
Jin Nian had always liked to eat prawns, but she didn’t like to peel the shells. She felt that it would dirty her fingers. However, Lu An knew what she was thinking. Therefore, Lu An would thoughtfully peel the shells for her every time there were prawns on the table. After so many years, it seemed to have become a habit.
You Ya approached her and said with a smile, “Niannian, you’re so lucky! The school hunk Lu personally peels the prawns for you.”
“Isn’t that normal? I’m his wife. If he doesn’t peel prawns for me, who else will he peel them for?” Jin Nian ate the prawns in her bowl with a matter-of-fact expression.
You Ya said in a low voice, “It’s normal for a Hubby to peel prawns for his wife. But it’s a little strange that Lu An would do this. He’s the young master of a rich family. He doesn’t look like someone who would serve others.”
Jin Nian smiled. “When I was young, he kept peeling prawns for me. After I got pregnant, I didn’t want to eat, so he fed me every day.”
You Ya clicked her tongue. “You two are so sweet! I wonder if my Hubby will take care of me like this when I’m pregnant!”
Jin Nian looked at You Ya. Ten years had passed, but time had not left many marks on her face. She was still tall and slender. One could tell easily that she was a beauty. On the contrary, her husband’s figure was not well managed. He was not a good match for You Ya in terms of appearance. However, he kept smiling and seemed to have a good temper.
You Ya’s husband was chatting with Lu An. “We’ve been in Country M for two years. After this project is over, we still have to return to China.”
Lu An nodded and looked at Li Zhen. He said helplessly, “My career is in M Nation. I can’t go back even if I want to. However, I’ve recently been promoted to a manager. It’s something to be happy about.”
“Congratulations, Manager Li.” Jin Nian laughed.
Wang Yang said, “I’m here on a business trip to M Nation. I heard that they have a monthly gathering, so I rushed over. I didn’t come in vain this time and I happened to meet Lu An. Our company has business dealings with Whale. Please take care of me in the future, CEO Lu.”
“No problem.” Lu An smiled.
Everyone laughed. You Ya then said, “Everyone, raise your glasses. Let’s drink till we drop tonight!”
“Sure!”
Everyone agreed and raised their glasses. Lu An poured a glass of fruit juice for himself and Jin Nian.
“Sorry, I have to drive later, so I won’t drink,” said Lu An frankly.
“It’s okay if you don’t drink it,” said Youya. “Let Jin Nian drink it.”
Lu An shook his head. “No, she’s pregnant.”
You Ya was stunned for a moment. She asked in surprise, “Didn’t Niannian just give birth to a son? Are you pregnant again?”
Jin Nian said shyly, “Yeah! People couldn’t tell since it’s just four weeks.”
“Oh my God! We haven’t even had the chance to have children yet, but the two of you have already given birth to two!” Wang Yang smiled with envy.
Most people started to be busy with their careers after graduation and did not have time to have children. Once they had children, it meant that they had to put in a lot of energy and could not allocate more energy to work.
They did not dare to have children before the age of 30 to catch up with their peers and quickly rise to high positions.
Jin Nian and Lu An didn’t have this kind of pressure. Lu An was already the largest shareholder of Whale at a young age and controlled a lot of resources. Jin Nian had also started a company and became the boss herself.
You Ya had always wanted a child but she didn’t dare to think about it since she hadn’t even finished her studies.
“Niannian, I have a question that I’ve been wanting to ask you.. Were you and CEO Lu dating in high school?”
