Gu Ren picked up a bottle of mineral water that was sitting on a table and unscrewed the cap. He closed his eyes, before pouring water all over his head.

The water was extremely cold having sat out in the open for a long time. It flowed down past his deep stunning eyes, straight bridge of his nose, and across cold shivering lips... causing a chill to pass through his whole body.

When everyone of the crew saw what Gu Ren had done, they looked at him silently in shock. While at the same time, sunlight shone directly on his figure, causing his body to give off an unusual bewitching aura.

Gu Ren’s clothes were completely soaked, as well as his black hair. His complexion had completely become pale and white from the cold, as if he had lost litres of his blood.

However, there was no change of the expression on Gu Ren’s face. He looked at the director and asked calmly, “Can we continue now?”Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com

Ye Zhi looked at the contact details for Gu Ren’s number. It consisted of only two words: “Old friend.”

Ye Zhi stared at these two words for a long time, as her thoughts began to drift away. She wondered how Gu Ren was doing. Was he already sick?

Ye Zhi decided not to call him and wait for his arrival.

Ye Zhi sat on the sofa, unable to focus on the TV, as she constantly looked at the clock on the wall from time to time, feeling as if time had slowed down. It was extremely difficult for her to bear each passing second.

In the evening, Ye Zhi went to the kitchen to cook ginger soup. So the moment that Gu Ren arrived home, he would be able to drink a bowl of ginger soup.

After she finished cooking the ginger soup, she sat back on the sofa again. She surfed the internet on her phone, but her mind was not there at all.

After a while, Ye Zhi looked out of the window. It was already dusk and the sky was gradually getting dark.

Ye Zhi couldn’t sit still. Panicking with thoughts like; what if Gu Ren doesn’t get back soon, how will he deal with his night blindness? So she stood up and prepared to go out. She had just taken a few steps from the sofa, when she heard a sound coming from the front door.
