He sounded casual, like he was telling a joke, but there was some sincerity in his voice.
Qin Zhi’ai wasn’t sure whether he was joking or being serious, so she decided to take it as a joke. Her heart fluttered at his flirtatious words. She joked back with a smile. “Then you’ll be my partner in crime.”
“Partner in crime?” Gu Yusheng didn’t seem happy with that title. He wrinkled his eyebrows and turned the steering wheel with one hand while the other hand was on the window. He stared the road ahead of him and was lost in thought for a while before he turned to look at her. He still sounded casual when he said, “How could I be the partner in crime? It’s obvious that I am only following my partner’s lead.”

Following the partner’s lead—this saying could only be about a couple.
Qin Zhi’ai’s heart raced to the point she couldn’t take it any longer; Gu Yusheng’s flirtatious words were too much.
She thought he had been too flirtatious when he had said he wanted to make little troublemaker laugh. That was why she had changed the subject immediately. She hadn’t expected him to say something even more flirtatious afterwards.
Qin Zhi’ai didn’t know what to say next. She didn’t know if she should say something back to Gu Yusheng or change the subject again.
It was quiet for a while in the car. Gu Yusheng looked like he had remembered something as he was driving. He suddenly turned the steering wheel and parked the car on the street.
Qin Zhi’ai was still thinking about how he had said he would be following his partner’s lead, but she suddenly regained her composure. She looked out of the window first and saw that they weren’t home yet. She turned to Gu Yusheng with a questioning face.
Gu Yusheng turned his head to look at her at the same time.
He looked relaxed and a little naughty. She was familiar with that naughty face.historical
She wasn’t sure if it was because of his flirtatious words from earlier or not, but she could feel his gaze at her becoming flirtatious. She was suddenly nervous.
Without knowing how long he had gazed at her, she felt like she would blush if he continued to look at her. He suddenly said, “I am me. Your agent is your agent.”

Qin Zhi’ai was confused by what he had said. She didn’t realize what he meant after a while. He was responding to when she had said, “In the entertainment industry, I have Zhou Jing to help me. If I have any troubles, she’ll settle them for me. You don’t have to worry about it.”
So did that imply that he would get involved in her career if something like that day happened again?
Was he trying to tell her that no matter what happened to her, he would protect her?
Qin Zhi’ai opened her mouth slightly and looked at Gu Yusheng. The look on her face seemed frozen.
Gu Yusheng could tell she understood what he had implied. He put his hand back on the wheel and merged back onto the road.
On the rest of their trip home, they didn’t talk. It was completely silent in the car. Qin Zhi’ai took a look at Gu Yusheng from time to time as he drove.
She didn’t know how Gu Yusheng saw her. He could have thought of her as a friend, or had a crush on her, maybe even more than a crush.
She knew he had been treating her better and better.
This was the lust that she had never thought he would have for her. Unfortunately, soon, very soon, she would lose all of this.
