Everyone took turns greeting Gu Si Yi, especially Zhuang Yi Yi, who deliberately approached him, subtly showcasing her figure.
In the midst of the greetings, Wu Yunyun discreetly moved away, which only fueled Gu Si Yi's irritation. A Yang announced the mission for the next day and sent everyone back to their dorms.
Once back in the dormitory, Zhuang Yi Yi specifically asked Wu Yunyun about her relationship with Gu Si Yi. Wu Yunyun simply replied that they had known each other in the past but were not close. Zhuang Yi Yi felt a sense of relief; she reassured herself that this time, the dance partner was chosen at random, and she still had a chance.
In fact, before Gu Si Yi arrived, the production team had hinted to her that he would be coming. Zhuang Yi Yi had heard of him in the industry; he was known for his high standards and had never shown interest in any girl. For years, he had remained single.
In this circle, Zhuang Yi Yi had long stopped believing in love. She simply enjoyed the thrill of pursuing others, knowing that once she succeeded, it would become dull. Someone like Gu Si Yi was a worthy challenge for her.
After nearly half an hour of removing her makeup, Wu Yunyun finally finished getting ready and collapsed onto her bed. She opened her phone and found a message from Gu Si Yi asking to meet in the courtyard.
After some thought, she wrapped herself in her blanket and replied: "Young Master, I'm not available. If you don't have anything particularly important to discuss, let's not meet. Also, for the time being, it's best if we pretend we don't know each other."
When Gu Si Yi saw Wu Yunyun's reply while drying his hair, he tossed the towel aside in frustration. Hadn't he made his intentions clear enough? He had come to Lian Zong and even danced with her. Did she truly have no feelings for him, or was it simply that she didn't like him? No matter what he did, it seemed futile.
Feeling defeated, Gu Si Yi lay back on his bed just as Zhou Liaosheng asked him about his progress. Not wanting to respond, he simply turned off his phone.
The next afternoon at two o'clock, everyone gathered together to visit a famous ancient town in Hong City and planned to stay there for the night. The production team wanted all these individuals to come together for a chaotic mix and see how it would turn out. After all, those who arrived later were at a disadvantage; to balance this gap, they devised this plan.
The production team arranged two special cars, and Wu Yunyun was the first to come out. She chose one and immediately sat in the passenger seat.
A Yang said, "You can't interact with the guests like this; come to the back!"
Wu Yunyun reluctantly got out of the car and moved to a corner seat at the back.
Not long after, Gu Si Yi arrived. Upon seeing Wu Yunyun, he sat down next to her without a second thought.
Wu Yunyun lacked experience in outdoor outings; she had only put on light makeup, worn thin clothes, and carried a lightweight backpack before heading out. When she noticed Gu Si Yi sitting down, she instinctively pressed her legs together, regretting not wearing long pants that day.
There was still an empty seat next to Gu Si Yi. When Zhuang Yi Yi came over and saw Wu Yunyun and Gu Si Yi sitting together, she was momentarily surprised but quickly composed herself and took a seat on his other side.
Gu Si Yi frowned slightly, crossing his arms over his chest.
Zhuang Yi Yi excitedly greeted him, "Gu Teacher, good afternoon!"
Gu Si Yi nodded slightly in response.
"I heard the environment in the ancient town is quite nice, and there's a famous boutique there. I plan to buy some accessories to match my outfits later. Gu Teacher, would you like to join me?"
"Sorry, I’m busy."
Zhuang Yi Yi wanted to say more but turned to see Gu Si Yi impatiently closing his eyes.
Meanwhile, Wu Yunyun spent the journey looking at the scenery. Eventually, she couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep in her seat.
When she woke up, there was no one left in the car, and she found herself draped in Gu Si Yi's jacket.
