"Wow, you even remember that?!" The team leader slapped his forehead. "No wonder you're a top student, amazing!"
"Huh? That's not right." The leader suddenly frowned. "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before. Wait, where?"
Gong Yao placed his hand on the commander's shoulder and subtly pulled him back.
"That's good enough. Where's the key?"
"You! I haven't even finished talking to the other person yet! Hey, hey, hey, okay, easy, easy, I know, I know."
The regimental commander sighed, reached into his pocket, and solemnly handed the key to Gong Yao.
"I'm entrusting my precious darling to you."
Gong Yao patted him on the back and laughed, "Don't worry, it won't fall."
"You guys have fun, I'm going back to work now."
"Okay, get lost."
Lin Zhenzhen smiled and waved, "Goodbye."
The team leader raised his hand and muttered to himself, "It must be because I've been working too much overtime lately, and my brain is a bit out of sorts. That's it."
Lin Zhenzhen watched him bend down and get into a taxi parked by the roadside, and asked with some curiosity, "What kind of work is the regimental commander doing now?"
"I work for a state-owned enterprise, which is located not far from the university town."
"A state-owned enterprise?" Lin Zhenzhen looked away. "I really can't tell."
"You find this surprising?"
"A bit, it doesn't seem to fit his personality."
Gong Yao smiled knowingly: "Because you're not familiar with him. He may seem unreliable, but he doesn't have any great ambitions. He just wants a peaceful and stable life."
"I got married right after graduating from university. My wife is my first love. Now our son is two years old. The last time we met, she said that we are planning to have a second child."
Gong Yao strode onto the motorcycle and handed the helmet to Lin Zhenzhen from the back.
Where would you like to go for a stroll first?
Lin Zhenzhen put on her helmet and laboriously stepped onto the motorcycle: "Either is fine."
Gong Yao tilted his head, his voice muffled through his helmet as he spoke: "Then shall I take you to the mountain to have a look?"
"good."
Lin Zhenzhen raised her hand and wrapped it around Gong Yao's waist, resting her head on his back.
A slow, strong, steady heartbeat resonated through her chest, carrying a reassuring warmth, each beat striking her eardrums.
The motorcycle was moving slowly on the city's motor vehicle lanes, with a section of the school's internal road in the middle, which was only about 500 meters long.
Lin Zhenzhen got out of the car to buy water, while Gong Yao parked his car on the side of the road to wait for her. Unexpectedly, she ran into an acquaintance again in just a short while.
Lin Zhenzhen was carrying a bottle of mineral water and walking back when she suddenly heard someone call her name from behind.
"Xiao Zhen!"
Lin Zhenzhen turned around in response and saw a pretty girl with a red bow in her hair.
"It really is you! I thought I had mistaken you for someone else when I saw you wearing a helmet."
The girl affectionately took her hand, her eyes glancing at Gong Yao standing by the roadside.
Gong Yao had one leg braced against the edge of the curb, while the other leg was upright.
His physique was so outstanding that no matter what casual pose he struck, it was always pleasing to the eye.
He didn't take off his helmet, but simply pushed up the glass cover in front of him, revealing his deep and bright eyes.
Many passersby were secretly observing him.
The girl tugged at Lin Zhenzhen's sleeve: "Xiao Zhen, is that your boyfriend?"
“He…” Lin Zhenzhen turned her head and saw that Gong Yao was also looking in her direction.
She pursed her lips, about to reply, when the person next to the girl suddenly spoke up: "Don't talk nonsense. How can you be so outspoken? They're just ordinary friends. Hurry up and let's go."
With that, she grabbed the girl and hurriedly left.
Lin Zhenzhen's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
She walked towards Gong Yao and handed him the water.
"A classmate?" The smile on his lips was very faint.
Lin Zhenzhen answered absentmindedly, "Mmm."
"Did they misunderstand something?"
Lin Zhenzhen shook her head: "No."
Gong Yao turned his head, silently started the motorcycle, and after a long while said, "I'm glad I didn't cause you any trouble."
Both of them had something on their minds, and the rest of the journey became unusually silent.
After passing the bustling city center, there was a long suburban road where the wind whistled in our ears, scattering the few birdsongs along the roadside.
Lin Zhenzhen wrapped her arms around his waist, watching the winding mountain road disappear into the rearview mirror section by section.
The phone in her arms suddenly started vibrating wildly.
The phone screen displayed the words "Agent Sister Zhang".
broker?
She's just a sophomore in college, so where did she get an agent from?
In the brief moment of hesitation, Gong Yao had already slowed down and pulled over to the side of the road.
He took off his helmet and looked at Lin Zhenzhen: "Your phone is ringing, aren't you going to answer it?"
"Hmm? It's okay, it's probably just a typo, don't worry about it."
Gong Yao gave her a deep look, then turned off the car and drove away in silence.
Lin Zhenzhen had no choice but to press the answer button.
"Hey, why did it take you so long to answer the phone? And why didn't you reply to my messages?"
Lin Zhenzhen frowned and lowered her eyes: "I was busy just now and didn't check my phone."
"The role for that TV series I told you about before has been finalized. You'll be the third female lead, and you'll start filming next month."
