Gu Hanyin walked quickly to Cen Yu.
He was already a bit taller than Cen Yu, and when they got closer, Cen Yu could feel the subtle pressure emanating from him, as well as the bitter scent of patchouli.
Cen Yu was surprised that Gu Hanyin would come over. He thought that the two of them would just nod to each other and then leave.
—Is this being too polite?
Cen Yu was a little unsure. He and Gu Hanyin didn't know each other at all; they had only happened to sit together at a charity gala.
After Gu Hanyin came up to him, she nodded and said, "What a coincidence."
He looked down at Cen Yu, who was wearing a hat and a mask, and then glanced at the nearby buildings. He naturally understood that Cen Yu had come to Yunxing.
Perhaps because it's a management company, fans often camp out nearby—but not at the main entrance, probably because they think celebrities should leave through the underground parking garage.
So even if someone saw Cen Yu wearing a mask and hat, they didn't pay much attention.
Seeing that Gu Hanyin showed no sign of leaving, Cen Yu was about to make an excuse to leave and take the subway when she heard Gu Hanyin ask, "How did you get here?"
He seemed to have noticed that Cen Yu hadn't driven, which is why he asked that question.
"I'll take the subway," Cen Yu said frankly. "I was just thinking about whether to walk back."
They lived only about 5 kilometers away from Yunxing, and Cen Yu believed he could walk back.
"If you don't mind," Gu Hanyin said, "I'll give you a ride."
"This is too much trouble for Director Gu."
"It's no trouble at all."
"..." Something's not right.
Cen Yu looked up at Gu Hanyin, whose face was not very expressive, and really didn't understand what Gu Hanyin meant.
Is she trying to find out something from him?
Both men are of good height, and even without dressing up or one of them wearing a mask, they are still handsome and have a great presence.
Not to mention that Gu Hanyin's face had already been revealed.
Although this face isn't as famous as a celebrity, it's still a popular spot around Yunxing, attracting fans and paparazzi even if you're not in the entertainment industry.
Perhaps because the two of them lingered on the street, Cen Yu sensed that people were beginning to look at them, as if trying to identify who they were.
"...Gu Hanyin?"
People were whispering among themselves, and seeing that someone was about to come over to confirm Gu Hanyin's identity, Cen Yu didn't hesitate any longer.
"Walk."
"Get in your car."
He initially wanted to grab Gu Hanyin's sleeve, but then remembered that the other person seemed to be a bit of a germaphobe, so he grabbed one side of the plastic bag, "Otherwise they'll come over."
Gu Hanyin glanced at Cen Yu, who was pulling a plastic bag in a corner, then turned around and led Cen Yu directly into the nearby shopping mall, taking the elevator to the parking lot.
Gu Hanyin is not a celebrity after all.
No one is chasing after him yet.
Upon arriving at the parking lot, Cen Yu released his grip on the plastic bag. "Director Gu, are you shopping?"
He seemed to be making conversation out of nothing.
After all, it's quite awkward to stay silent.
"I've come to buy something."
Are there still things packaged in plastic bags here?
Cen Yu had only one thought in his mind: he thought everything here was packed in bags with gold trim!
Gu Hanyin's car wasn't in a particularly conspicuous location, but its logo was so eye-catching that it was hard not to see it.
Gu Hanyin opened the back door, put the things she had bought on the back seat, and then gestured for Cen Yu to sit in the passenger seat.
After Cen Yu opened the car door and got in, he fastened his seatbelt and took off his mask—it seemed a bit impolite to wear a mask while already in someone else's car.
"Where do you live?" Gu Hanyin asked, seemingly preparing to navigate.
Cen Yu immediately gave the name of the neighborhood.
Upon hearing this, Gu Hanyin stopped navigating. Cen Yu, of course, noticed this detail. "Director Gu knows this place?"
“The actors I know live here.”
"I've been there before."
As Gu Hanyin spoke, he started the car. Seeing this, Cen Yu thanked Gu Hanyin again for his kind act as a citizen.
After the car drove onto the road, Cen Yu looked at the buildings and people on both sides and asked, "Director Gu, what did you want to say to me earlier?"
He's not stupid. A big-name director like Gu Hanyin would actually greet a nobody like him and offer to take him home—
If he were the protagonist who was the bottom, he would have suspected that Gu Hanyin had feelings for him at this point.
Gu Hanyin was just driving, seemingly unaware of Cen Yu's question, and music had already started playing in the car.
Unlike Gu Hanyin's overly calm and restrained demeanor, heavy metal rock music was playing in the car.
Gu Hanyin pressed the pause button.
"I'm sorry," Gu Hanyin said, "I've never given anyone a ride before."
Cen Yu didn't care about that at all; he simply pressed play again, saying, "It's fine."
He looked at Gu Hanyin, "Director Gu..."
Do you know how I feel right now?
"How does it feel?"
"It seems like I was called away by the head of student affairs in high school, but he didn't say what I had done, which made me very uneasy."
Could it be that they came for Xie Jinshen?
Cen Yu recalled the scene where she deliberately let Xie Jinshen go to her seat to get the brooch, which led to her interaction with Gu Hanyin.
But he couldn't ask that directly.
Otherwise it sounds crazy—
Why would a big director like Gu Hanyin hire a lowly personal assistant?
No celebrity would ask that question, not even someone as obscure as him.
Gu Hanyin chuckled. He was still wearing gloves, whether it was simply because he was cold or something else, it was unclear. While waiting for the traffic light to change, he looked at Cen Yu and said, "Don't be too nervous."
