Chapter 227

“It’s a shame that we are eating Chinese food, I can’t use the dining etiquette I just learned in the afternoon.” Ye Zhi’s tone was a bit regretful.

Gu Ren responded to her reply with a smile: “Should we go to eat Western food next time?”

“Sure.” Ye Zhi nodded. She picked up her chopsticks and continued to eat.

It gradually got dark outside as Ye Zhi’s eyes were focused on Gu Ren for some time.

Unknown to Ye Zhi, staying with Gu Ren had subconsciously become a habit in her life.

After walking out of the restaurant, she noticed that there were only a few street lights in the narrow alleyway.

The dim yellow light fell on the pavement. Although it felt beautiful, one could only barely see the road. For Gu Ren, it was not a good thing.

Gu Ren paused just after walking out of the restaurant. After hesitating for a moment, Ye Zhi slowly walked out behind him.

As soon as Ye Zhi took the first step, she realized that situation was not right. She looked towards the entrance of the alley.

“It still seems a little dark.”

Ye Zhi looked around strangely: “It’s pretty bright.”

Gu Ren lightly sighed, “Maybe my symptoms have worsened.”

When Ye Zhi heard this, she quickly took a step towards Gu Ren: “Are you okay?”

Gu Ren looked at Ye Zhi, who was only half a meter away from him, and stretched out his hand. His slender and thin fingers grabbed Ye Zhi’s sleeve.

“It will be alright.”

Ye Zhi believed Gu Ren’s words and shone the light of the flashlight on the road in front of him. Gu Ren silently followed Ye Zhi as she led the way.

The car was parked outside the alley. Along the way, Ye Zhi kept reminding Gu Ren incessantly.

“You should be careful when you shoot night scenes especially when I’m not around in the future...”

Before Ye Zhi had finished speaking, Gu Ren suddenly released the corner of Ye Zhi’s sleeve. He took a few steps forward, walking out of the alley. It was quite bright outside the alley as the main road had good streetlights. He couldn’t pretend anymore.

Gu Ren kept silent the whole time. He sat in the driver’s seat, but he did not forget to help open Ye Zhi’s car door.

At that moment, the street light reflected in Gu Ren’s helpless eyes.
