Chen Yuling glanced at Gu Yuheng in a daze, her thoughts drifting back to two years ago.
...
That day, she rushed to her audition.
That role was very important to her at the time, and she absolutely couldn't miss it.
However, her car broke down on the way to the film set. She had a spare tire, but no tools.
Just when she was getting really anxious, a car drove up, and without thinking, she rushed over, hoping they could give her a ride.
She explained her purpose to the driver, and after the window was rolled down, she saw the man sitting in the back seat.
One glance was all it took to make her unable to look away.
The driver turned to the man in the back seat and conveyed her meaning. She knew that everything depended on this man, so she looked at him with hopeful eyes.
He didn't agree to give her a ride, but he did give her the toolbox.
Although she was somewhat disappointed, she still sincerely thanked him.
The man had a very aloof demeanor. She spoke to him at length, but he didn't respond. His gaze remained fixed on the distance ahead, as if he couldn't see her at all.
The driver got out of the car and gave her the toolbox from the trunk. After getting back in the car, she said something to him.
The moment the car door closed, she saw a fleeting tenderness on his face, a moment she caught.
Later, she learned that the person who had helped her was Master Gu, the most famous richest man on the Flower Kingdom's rich list, and the youngest and most promising head of the Gu Group in Jincheng.
Before this, she had actually heard rumors about Master Gu. He hated being associated with female stars and having sex scandals, and no media dared to spread rumors about him casually.
He was virtuous and upright, unlike other wealthy young men who frequented brothels.
He hated women, and wherever he went, the area had to be cleared out.
He was ruthless and decisive, and anyone who offended him met a bad end.
...
But that one startling glance that day made her realize that this man wasn't as heartless as everyone said.
Chen Yuling was somewhat happy. She felt that she had discovered a secret of Master Gu, and that probably not many people knew about it.
Gu Sanye may seem cold on the surface, but beneath his stern exterior lies a gentle heart.
She originally thought that their connection was only limited to that brief encounter that day, after all, it would be too difficult for someone of her status to get close to him.
However, six months later, she saw him again at the airport.
The two elderly people accompanying him appeared to be his parents, Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu.
She saw him considerately carry Mrs. Gu's bag and complete the registration procedures for the two elderly people at the same time.
Seeing that Old Madam Gu kept nagging at him, she was a little far away and couldn't hear what they were saying, but from Old Madam Gu's disgusted expression, it was not hard to guess that Old Madam Gu was saying something to scold him.
However, his face showed no impatience. Instead, he lowered his head and accepted Madam Gu's criticism without uttering a single word of rebuttal.
Therefore, she became even more certain of her guess: Third Master Gu was indeed a very gentle person.
She inquired and found out that there were no women around him.
She thought that if she tried hard, perhaps there would be even the slightest chance between them.
