The cars of Gu Ren and Ye Zhi arrived one after another.
When the show ended, it was already late at night, and the dark sky coupled with countless stars covered the entire sky. At this time, the show crew asked the guests to stay and have dinner together.
Everyone had been participating in the show for quite long so they had gradually become acquainted with each other. They found empty seats and sat down next to the people they were familiar with.
Gu Ren casually chose a position to sit down. After a while, he felt a figure sat down next to him. He glanced and saw who it was, it turned out to be Shan Qian.
Shan Qian was a little excited after winning first place so he wanted to sit next to Gu Ren and chat with him.
After working together with Shan Qian, Gu Ren found that he was a nice person to get along with so whenever Shan Qian asked something, he would respond patiently.
However, Gu Ren’s eyes were glued to the door the whole time, as if he was waiting for someone’s figure to arrive.
Shan Qian was sitting on the left of Gu Ren while the seat on the right was empty. When Yue Ling saw that there was an empty seat next to Gu Ren, she was delighted and she subconsciously lifted her feet to walk towards him.
She pulled the seat and turned her head to greet Gu Ren, when suddenly, she froze.
Although there was no expression on Gu Ren’s face, his gaze was ice cold and they seemed to contain an invisible pressure that was telling her to back off.
Yue Ling’s heart trembled and she didn’t dare to sit next to him anymore. She stiffly took back the hand that had pulled the chair, pushed it back to its place, and silently took a detour. In the end, she sat down beside Liu Cong.
Gu Ren retrieved his cold gaze and turned his head to continue looking at the door. It was obvious that the seat, which he guarded cautiously beside him, was only reserved for Ye Zhi.
At this time, the long awaited figure finally appeared at the door. Gu Ren’s expression, which was initially cold and stoic, suddenly turned warm, his eyes flickered with bright lights.
Ye Zhi’s head was slightly lowered, revealing her snow-white neck. A few strands of hair hung down on the side of her face, evoking a sense of beauty.
When Gu Ren saw Ye Zhi coming, a warm smile subtly spread on his lips.

One seat was available next to Xiong Tian while the other one…
Ye Zhi’s eyes stopped… was available right next to Gu Ren.
Ye Zhi thought for a moment and ultimately chose to sit next to Xiong Tian. Although this dinner was not being broadcasted live and netizens could not see it, all guests were present here. If she sat next to Gu Ren, she was worried that others would notice something.
Moreover, she was very familiar with Xiong Ting so it did not feel awkward sitting next to him.
After Ye Zhi made the decision, she raised her head and met Gu Ren’s gaze. Soon enough, Ye Zhi silently looked away.
Gu Ren understood that Ye Zhi was not going to sit beside him. His eyes immediately showed a slight disappointment and his grip on the water glass tightened slightly.
Ye Zhi didn’t notice Gu Ren’s thoughts and walked to the place where Xiong Ting was sitting.
Xiong Ting was sitting at the other end. If she wanted to go there, she had to go around behind Gu Ren.
