Su Jin got up, intending to leave and take a shower or something.
Shen Yanxiu's sudden appearance startled her.
"Where did you come from? Why do you look like a male ghost?"
Shen Yanxiu said quietly, "I've always been here."
He just couldn't join their conversation; his presence was so minimal it was almost nonexistent.
He secretly vowed to get up early the next morning to memorize the jokes.
I'm determined to understand what Su Jin is saying!
There was a knock on the front door.
"Is this the production crew? What are you doing so late?"
"I'll go open the door and see."
Su Jin got up and opened the door. "What...?"
The words caught in her throat, because she knew the person standing outside the door all too well.
It was her husband, Gu Xingze, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.
Gu Xingze was still panting heavily, his collar was open, and one would think he had run there; his hair was disheveled. "Old..."
Before he could finish speaking, Su Jin grabbed a piece of clothing from the rack and covered his head with it.
He said to the bewildered crowd, "Haha, he's an acquaintance of mine, everyone please continue, I'll talk to him."
She pulled Gu Xingze towards her room.
She looked left and right to make sure no one was around before she dared to yell at him, "Why did you suddenly come? You scared me to death, you know?"
Gu Xingze's voice was trembling.
"Honey, can I see you? Just for a moment."
Only after receiving permission did he dare to pull off the clothes covering him. His first priority was to check Su Jin for any injuries, turning her over and over in his hands.
Seeing Su Jin's noticeably thinner face, Gu Xingze pouted as if he was about to cry.
"You are not allowed to cry."
He held it back.
His voice choked with emotion, "Wife, I saw them saying that something happened to this show, I was so scared... Thank goodness you're alright."
Su Jin's heart skipped a beat. So he had rushed here overnight?
Seeing that Su Jin's expression had softened, Gu Xingze dared to embrace her.
“You’ve lost weight, Jinjin, let’s go home. You’ve suffered too much. I’ll give you anything you want when we get home.”
"Stop rubbing against me... I haven't even showered yet."
The more she talked, the more excited Gu Xingze became, and he hugged her even tighter.
"Do you know how long it's been since I've seen you? I can only watch your live streams every day to satisfy my cravings."
Thinking of what Su Jin said during the live stream, Gu Xingze's eyes dimmed slightly.
“Jinjin...you can’t, you can’t be so cruel to me.”
Su Jin didn't understand what he was talking about and thought it was just a case of separation making the heart grow fonder.
He patted his back to comfort him, "Alright, you should go back now. I have to record a show tomorrow, there's no point in you staying here."
Gu Xingze suddenly increased the distance between himself and Su Jin.
His eyes were hurt, and his voice unconsciously rose a few decibels, "You're telling me to leave as soon as I arrive? And why did you cover my head just now? Did you not want anyone to see me? Or did you not want anyone to know I'm your husband? Am I your mistress? Are you trying so hard to hide me?"
His chest heaved violently, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"Am I really that...ashamed of you?"
Su Jin stood there with her mouth agape, unsure how to react.
He stammered as he explained, "No, of course you're not my mistress, and you're not shameful at all."
She struggled for a while before coming up with a reason: "I want to protect you. I don't want you to be seen in public, otherwise they'll curse you out in very harsh ways."
Gu Xingze seemed comforted, rubbed his eyes, and hugged her again.
"Honey, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have raised my voice at you like that."
Su Jin breathed a sigh of relief; Gu Xingze was really hard to coax.
However, she is not without reason.
But she breathed a sigh of relief too soon.
Shen Yanxiu's voice came from outside the door, "Ajin, are you alright? Why aren't you coming out?"
Su Jin's heart leaped into her throat.
He has a whole repertoire of ways to comfort others, but he can only offer a rope to comfort himself.
"I'm fine! You should go now, I'll be here for a long time."
Shen Yanxiu seemed to say something again, but Su Jin couldn't care less about him anymore.
Gu Xingze's expression completely changed.
Who is that man?
"You say I'm useless here, but he is useful, right?"
"Are you kicking me out because of him?"
Su Jin was speechless. "No, listen to me, he's just my colleague."
It's just a target for romance.
Gu Xingze's eyes slowly reddened, and large tears fell. He bit his lower lip and nodded, "Okay, I believe you."
Su Jin really wanted to say, "How can you say you believe this?"
But she didn't dare say it, afraid of upsetting him.
"Then let me ask you a question."
"you say."
Gu Xingze seemed to have made up his mind before asking, "If I and that man fell into the water, who would you save?"
......
Silent silence is the most ruthless.
Su Jin was truly speechless. She thought he was going to say something earth-shattering, but it turned out to be the same question again.
Just as Gu Xingze was about to break down, Su Jin spoke up, "Of course I'll save you. You're my legal husband."
Gu Xingze stopped crying and asked again in disbelief, "Really?"
Su Jin nodded, "Really?"
She took out a tissue from the bedside table and wiped away his tears.
"Don't cry. If your subordinates find out, they'll laugh at you."
Gu Xingze bent down slightly so that she could touch him more easily.
His eyes crinkled with laughter, completely captivated by Su Jin's words, "I don't care about them, I just want my wife to be happy and with me."
He pronounced the last four words very softly, but his eyes were unusually simple.
Su Jin awkwardly turned her head away and touched Gu Xingze's handsome face a couple more times.
Gu Xingze obediently pressed his face against her palm, carefully observing Su Jin's expression. Sensing that she wasn't impatient, he wanted to take it a step further.
"Honey, if I and your best friend both fell into the water at the same time, who would you save?"
He wanted to test his place in her heart, to see if he held a slightly higher position than others.
"Of course I'll save you."
Gu Xingze's eyes lit up. "Really!"
Su Jin replied matter-of-factly, "Of course I'll save you. I don't know any of my friends or colleagues."
"......"
Su Jin may have forgotten that there were cameras installed in everyone's room, but they hadn't had time to set them up properly, so Gu Xingze's face wasn't captured.
This scene was captured by viewers off-camera, but because Su Jin didn't have any recording equipment, her words weren't very clear.
Despite it being evening, the number of viewers in the live stream continued to rise sharply.
