Chapter 264
The crowd was shocked. Everyone had changed partners except for Gu Ren and Ye Zhi, and it was Gu Ren who requested it.
Qian Hong was not embarrassed. He stood up smiling, “It’s okay, I will not break you up.”
“…” Why does this comment sound so strange?
Qian Hong went up to the only vacant place and sat next to Yueling. Yueling’s face was ugly. She felt like she was supposed to be one to be paired up with Gu Ren.
But she was the last one left without a partner, and she had no choice at all.
Now that everyone had a partner, Ye Zhi, who was sitting together with Gu Ren in the last row, was unable to suppress the doubt in her heart. She whispered, “Why…”
Ye Zhi asked very softly without turning her head.
Gu Ren too replied without looking at Ye Zhi. He spewed his reply inadvertently, but his voice was very clear, “You felt awkward… So I got you out of it.”
Ye Zhi’s heart jumped, and she subconsciously looked at Gu Ren.
Gu Ren happened to turn his head too. His face was cold, but emotions were hidden deep within his eyes as if the moon had suddenly shone up in a starless night.
They felt cool and tranquil, and you would sink into them at a glance, unable to retrieve oneself.
After the re-selection of partners, the host began to announce the rules of the first game.
“There are two cards here, each with an address. The games in these two places are different, and you are free to choose.”
Each group received two cards, but they could not tell what game was waiting for them just based on the addresses.
But one of the addresses was closer to here, while the other was nearly an extra half of the drive of the first address, meaning the time spent travelling in the car would be longer.
Ye Zhi and Gu Yan looked at each other with mutual understanding and made a decision without discussion.
Ye Zhi gave some thought “We will go to the nearer one first, and only go to the other one if we could not complete it. “
She only suggested it, but she had her heart set to never give up no matter how difficult the challenge was.
Gu Ren seemed to have read Ye Zhi’s mind, however, because they were both in front of the camera, he only replied in a short sentence.
“Don’t pretend to be strong.”
Ye Zhi was frozen for a moment but nodded. She thought of what Gu Ren said again the night before. She felt her face heat up and moved away from her eyes subconsciously, not daring to look at Gu Ren.
The other groups had the same idea, and all of them got into the car and went to the destination where the first game was.
The passenger seat and the back seat of the car were seated by two filmographers, and Ye Zhi and Gu Yan had no choice but to be squeezed together in the back seat.
Ye Zhi sat by the car window while Gu Ren sat in the middle. The two swayed violently with the car as the driver drove fast, wanting to reach the destination as soon as possible.
To be accurate, Gu Ren swayed only slightly, and Ye Zhi on the other hand was almost thrown out by the driver’s drift.
And because of Gu Ren’s confession last night, each and every movement he made affected Ye Zhi, which incited her anxiety.
Ye Zhi could only grasp the door firmly, stabilizing herself.
The comments sections were laughing their butts off.
“It’s tough for Ye Zhi, the car has such little space. I want to tell her that she has no place to retreat.”
“Ye Zhi, you can lean on our idol, we can’t bear to see you like this.”
As Ye Zhi was trying hard to stabilize her body, Gu Ren uttered a short line.
“We’re here.”
