Chapter 8



In the early morning, there were only a few cars passing by on the suburban roads.

A female voice singing softly came from the car stereo, adding a bit of romance to the quiet night in late autumn.

"Yanran, please help me with navigation." Gu Siye's voice broke through the silence, "The road ahead is under construction, so we have to take a detour."

There was a faint scent of lemongrass in the low-key luxury car. Lin Yanran, who was listening to a song and looking at the beautiful river view outside the window, turned her head when she heard the sound and her eyes fell on Gu Siye who was driving seriously.

The other party was about to take the mobile phone from his pocket, but Lin Yanran stopped him.

"I'll call you using my phone." Fearing that the other party might misunderstand, Lin Yanran explained, "Your phone needs to be unlocked. It's not convenient to drive."

Gu Siye smiled and said, "Okay."

Lin Yanran quickly turned on her phone and started looking for navigation in the app.

This phone is not his, so he is still a little unfamiliar with using it.

It took Lin Yanran almost ten seconds to find the navigation.

After quickly entering the name of her community into the navigation, Lin Yanran placed her phone in front of Gu Siye's right.

A cheerful female voice sounded from the navigation system, and began to announce the distance to the destination and the time required.

Lin Yanran's eyes fell on the song that was playing, and she finally couldn't help but ask Gu Siye.

"Do you like Huang Huanqian too?"

Gu Siye nodded and said softly, "I like it."

His slender hands manipulated the steering wheel and turned it in a circle. After the black car returned to a new route, he added, "I used to listen to it a lot when I was in high school."

“I also started listening to her songs when I was in high school.”

This coincidence made Lin Yanran feel as if she had found a soulmate, and her tone became cheerful.

Huang Huanqian is a late old singer. When she debuted in the last century, her style was relatively niche. Although she was not obscure, she was not famous either. Therefore, her songs were not as popular as those of the pop kings and queens of the time and her number of fans was much less.

In addition, with the passage of time, there are very few young people who know her now, let alone those who like her songs.

So now it seems that their group of fans is indeed a very small minority.

Among all the people of his age that Lin Yanran knew, he only knew one person who had the same hobbies as him, and that person was his good friend in high school.

In the past, the two of them did everything together, so it was not a big deal since they had similar interests and hobbies.

But he was extremely surprised that Gu Siye, the ceiling of the entertainment industry, also liked such a niche singer just like him.

This feeling is like finding a close friend in a parallel universe.

Especially since Gu Siye’s style of listening to music is almost the same as his own.

From the moment he got in the car until now, every song played in the car is his favorite.

These were all things he had heard countless times before he entered the book.

This discovery tonight allowed Lin Yanran, who had come to this fictional world, to finally find a sense of familiarity in this unreal and unfamiliar environment.

He finally understood why he felt an inexplicable liking for Gu Siye when he first saw him.

So it’s because of the same hobbies?

"The first song I listened to of hers was "The Night Wind Blows Quietly". That night, my friend and I skipped class to go for a walk by the river. The river breeze was blowing, and this song happened to randomly appear on the playlist. Her voice was very gentle, and it matched the night scene very well."

Because the song brought back memories of the past, the expression on Lin Yanran's face became much more vivid.

The whole person is full of energy and there is light in his eyes.

Gu Siye listened quietly, feeling that the scene described by Lin Yanran seemed familiar, but he could not imagine the scene at all.

It was late at night and there were almost no pedestrians on the road.

The night is hazy, and the breeze is blowing gently along the river, creating quite a poetic scene.

Gu Siye turned his head to look at Lin Yanran at this moment. When he was about to tell him that it was also a good time to listen to "The Night Wind Blows Quietly" now, he heard a huge splash of water coming from the river.

A small black car rushed straight into the river.

Lin Yanran, who originally wanted to continue chatting about songs with Gu Siye, happened to see this scene and shouted anxiously: "Gu Siye, stop the car! A car has driven into the water!!"

Gu Siye quickly stepped on the brakes and moved the car inside.

However, before the car came to a complete stop, Lin Yanran, who was sitting in the passenger seat, threw away her cell phone, opened the door and jumped out.

He quickly ran to the river, scanning the surroundings as he ran, and found that apart from the sightseeing trees, there were no other measures that could be used for rescue.

When they were almost at the river, Lin Yanran heard cries for help and the crying of a little girl coming from inside the car.

Upon learning that there were children in the car, Lin Yanran did not hesitate for a moment and jumped into the river and swam towards the car.

He had learned swimming since elementary school and he swam very fast, so he swam to the car in just a few seconds.

When Lin Yanran got closer, she realized that one-third of the front of the car had sunk into the water.

The situation is extremely critical.

If it had been a few minutes longer, the entire car would have sunk.

Lin Yanran hurriedly pulled the door handle of the cab, but it didn't move at all.

The door is locked.

"Help, help! Someone please save us."

The driver, who looked to be in his 50s or 60s, was completely panicked and was holding the little girl in the passenger seat, shouting helplessly toward the sky.

The little girl who was held tightly in his arms had blood all over her face and was crying loudly for her mother.

Seeing this, Lin Yanran quickly knocked on the car window, trying to regain the driver's consciousness.

"Master, don't panic! Don't panic! Unlock the car door quickly!!!"

There is still a chance of self-rescue when a vehicle falls into water, but one must stay calm. Lin Yanran tried to calm the driver in the car first.

However, the driver in the car was probably frightened by the situation. He was unable to come to his senses for a long time and kept crying to himself.

"Master!! Master!!!"

Lin Yanran knocked on the car window a few more times, and seeing that the other party still didn't respond, she quickly swam to the passenger side.

"Unlock the car door quickly!!! Unlock!!!"

Human life is at stake and we cannot afford to waste even a second.

Lin Yanran knocked on the window vigorously, using almost the loudest voice she could, trying to convey the most important information at the moment to the people in the car.

This time his shouting finally worked.

The driver was stunned for a second, and finally noticed that someone was rescuing outside the car.

He rushed out in great joy and patted the car window, "Help, help! Please save Lele."

Lin Yanran nodded at him, and then continued to remind him, "Unlock the car first, quickly!"

After Lin Yanran's reminder, the driver seemed to finally remember that he could unlock the door. He turned around in a hurry and started searching inside the car.

But he was in such a panic just now that he didn't know where he threw the car keys.

Time passed by minute by minute. It was only a few seconds, but it seemed like centuries had passed.

At this time, the water in the car had already reached above the knees.

The little girl, her face covered in blood, started crying again out of fear.

There was no way to wait any longer, so Lin Yanran simply smashed the car window glass a few more times with her hands.

But this kind of explosion-proof glass cannot be broken at all.

The car's sealing was not very good, and it wasn't long before the water reached half of it.

The driver finally found the key left on the dashboard and unlocked the car door. However, the pressure inside and outside the car was too great, so even if both of them pushed together, they couldn't open the door.

Seeing that dragging this on was not a solution, Lin Yanran shouted at the other party again, "Look for a safety hammer in the car."

As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered that Gu Siye, who was traveling with him, was driving, so he turned around and asked him to get the safety hammer from his car.

As a result, as he turned around, he saw the other person swimming towards him with a safety hammer in his hand.

It's like knowing what he wants.

Lin Yanran happily reached out and took it directly from the other person.

In such a critical moment, he still thought of taking this life-saving thing with him when rescued. Gu Siye's calmness and meticulousness are really unmatched by ordinary people.

"You are very thoughtful."

Lin Yanran, who had been frowning, finally had a smile in her eyes.

In order to avoid injury to the people inside, he first smashed the glass of the rear window, and then reached out through the rear window and smashed towards the passenger seat.

With a loud crash, the glass was finally broken.

"You save this little girl first, I'll go break the glass over there."

Gu Siye calmly took the safety hammer from Lin Yanran and swam to the driver's side.

The little girl in the car was obviously frightened and kept crying.

Lin Yanran stretched out her hand to him, "Don't cry, little sister. Brother is here."

After saying that, he directed the driver inside to carefully carry the little girl out of the car window little by little.

"Don't cry, it's okay."

Lin Yanran carefully held the little girl and swam towards the river with one hand.

After finally rescuing the little girl to shore, Lin Yanran put her on the lawn.

The wound on the little girl's face was still oozing blood, mixed with tears and covering her face.

She cried and looked at the driver in the river, calling "Grandpa" intermittently.

Lin Yanran quickly used her sleeve to wipe the blood off her face and told her, "Wait here for a moment, I'll go rescue grandpa right away."

The little girl couldn't control her tears, but looked at Lin Yanran with gratitude and nodded sensibly.

After settling the little girl down, Lin Yanran jumped into the water to save her grandfather.

Compared to the little girl's petite body, the driver's fat body weighing more than 200 pounds couldn't get out of the window at all.

After several unsuccessful attempts, the driver slumped down in his seat helplessly.

He couldn't open the car door, nor could he jump out through the window. Looking at the water that was almost up to his chest, he felt a sense of despair.

"I can't get out..."

The strong desire to survive was no longer in his voice.

"Don't worry, you can get out, but you have to wait first."

Lin Yanran quickly spoke up, trying to calm the other person down.

As a result, he accidentally choked on his saliva while speaking and couldn't say the rest of the words.

"wait?"

The driver was a little confused. At this critical moment of life and death, he was nervous, but for some reason he felt that the two young men in front of him would not lie to him.

Gu Siye held Lin Yanran's hand to hold the car door and gently patted him on the back.

"Are you okay?"

Lin Yanran wiped the river water off her face and nodded at the other party, "Not bad."

After seeing Lin Yanran recover, Gu Siye helped Lin Yanran explain to the driver, "Wait until the water inside and outside the car is level. There is no pressure difference at this time."

After hearing Gu Siye's explanation, the driver finally stopped being so panicked.

The car was sinking faster and faster, and there was more and more water inside the car.

Before long, the water inside and outside the car was finally equal.

Lin Yanran and Gu Siye exchanged glances.

"Master, come together."

As soon as Lin Yanran finished speaking, he and Gu Siye reached out and pulled the car door hard.

The driver inside heard this and used his body force to push the door outwards.

With the efforts of three people, the car door was finally opened!

The moment he rushed out of the car, the driver cried with joy.

He knew that he was brought back from the brink of death by the two young men...

The driver, who was pulled ashore by Lin Yanran and Gu Siye, collapsed to the ground and burst into tears while hugging his lovely granddaughter.

"Le Le, it was grandpa who was at fault just now. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

The little girl started crying again, but after seeing her grandfather, she was not as scared as before.

The night wind brought cool breezes.

Seeing that the grandfather and grandson were fine, Lin Yanran felt relieved.

The rescue took several minutes in total.

Such a big commotion happened here that people around had already noticed it and were jogging over.

Seeing that there were quite a few people gathering around, Lin Yanran quickly grabbed Gu Siye's hand and ran towards the car.

"There are more and more people, let's go."

He and Gu Siye were still together late at night. If they were photographed by everyone, wouldn’t it be a hot topic tomorrow?

He had already troubled the other party enough today, and he didn't want to cause more trouble for Gu Siye.

Gu Siye did not shake off Lin Yanran's hand, but ran with her with a smile on his face.

At first, it was Lin Yanran who held his hand, but later he held the other person's hand instead.

The two did not separate their hands until they got in the car.

Lin Yanran, who hadn't noticed anything about the hand holding just now, looked out the window and was relieved when she found that everyone's attention was on the car still soaked in water.

"No one should have photographed us just now."

Gu Siye glanced at the hand that he had just held tightly with Lin Yanran and smiled softly, "Are you so afraid of having a scandal with me?"

Lin Yanran shook her head and then pulled at the collar of her wet shirt.

He didn't want the wet clothes to stick to his skin; the sticky feeling made him uncomfortable.

So Lin Yanran lowered her head and answered while adjusting her clothes, "My popularity and reputation are very bad. You are still with me so late, I am afraid that your fans will see and scold you."

It’s not that I’m afraid of people scolding me for trying to gain popularity, but I’m afraid of others scolding me.

There is only one word difference, but the focus is different.

Gu Siye understood what Lin Yanran meant, but did not respond. His eyes fell on Lin Yanran.

The other person was already pretty, and her hair was wet, with some water droplets on her eyelashes. She lowered her head to adjust her clothes, and her eyes were pitiful, so beautiful that she looked like a fragile yet beautiful porcelain doll.

But after a brief contact, Gu Siye realized that this porcelain doll was beautiful but not fragile, and his heart was firm and strong.

Gu Siye resisted the urge to wipe the water off the other person's eyelashes, gently looked away, and smiled softly, "It's okay, I'm not afraid."

Half an hour later, Gu Siye sent Lin Yanran to the gate of their community.

"Teacher Gu, do you want to go to my house and change your clothes first?"

Lin Yanran looked at Gu Siye, who was as wet as herself, and thought that it was really uncomfortable to wear such an outfit, so she asked him.

Although he knew that it might not be a good idea to invite the other party like this, when he thought about the friendship between the two of them who had saved people together, he felt that it was not a big deal.

Gu Siye smiled at him gentlemanly, "No need, my home is not far away, go back and take a shower first, don't catch a cold."

After the other party said this, Lin Yanran didn't say anything else.

He said goodbye to the other party, opened the door and got out of the car.

Just as the car door was about to close, he heard Gu Siye behind him say to him again: "There is no filming task tomorrow, you should have a good rest."

After watching Lin Yanran's back disappear completely into the night, Gu Siye restarted the car. After a long detour, he finally returned home.

While Gu Siye and Lin Yanran were rescuing people, there was a huge quarrel on the Internet because of the necklace.

After the program was recorded, a staff member went to the forum to expose the matter of Xuan Yihan and Lin Yanran.

But because this fact is so magical, and there is no video or photo evidence, most people don't believe it is true.

Especially Xuan Yihan’s fans, they directly pointed out that this was Yanran’s deliberate hype, making up stories to discredit Hanhan and whitewash herself at the same time.

So those who mocked Xuan Yihan, those who scolded Lin Yanran, those who were fans and those who were haters all held their own opinions and the argument got intense.

After Lin Yanran returned home, he quickly took a hot bath, then washed all his wet clothes and hung them up before going to bed.

The program was recorded until the evening, plus the round trip driving and diving to save people. After finishing all this, Lin Yanran was able to fall asleep at nearly five in the morning.

The result of staying up late is that the biological clock no longer works, and Lin Yanran didn’t wake up until almost twelve o’clock the next day.

He was awake, but he didn't wake up naturally. He was woken up by the phone.

The call was from the "Super Idol" production team. As soon as the call was connected, the other party was obviously a little excited, "Teacher Yanran, please come down quickly. I will take you to the production team! Urgent! Urgent!"

Lin Yanran rubbed her eyes and spoke with a breath, "What's wrong?"

Aren’t we not recording the show today?
