In the bustling city afternoon, Su Jinyu's traditional Chinese medicine shop is quiet. Sunlight streams through the window onto the old wooden cabinets, which are filled with all kinds of medicinal herbs. Su Jinyu is busy organizing the herbs, humming a tune as she works. 0
 
Suddenly, her phone's ringtone breaks the silence. She looks and sees a message from Gu Chenyu: "Are you free tonight? How about dinner together?" inviting her to dinner tonight. 0
 
 
Su Jinyu felt a little surprised. This was the first time Gu Chenyu had actively invited her to dinner. She lightly bit her lip, the words on the screen flashing with a tempting light. Thinking back to Gu Chenyu's usual calm demeanor, a hint of anticipation rose in her heart. She replied with a smiling emoji: "Sure, any good recommendations?" 0
 
Gu Chenyu quickly responded: "There's a newly opened French restaurant with good reviews." 0
 
 
Su Jinyu's eyebrows raised slightly, a barely noticeable hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. She lightly bit her lip and replied with a smiling emoji, "Sure, the newly opened French restaurant sounds good!" 0
 
Gu Chenyu quickly responded, "Then at 7 o'clock tonight, I'll come pick you up." Short and to the point. 0
 
 
Su Jinyu looked at her phone, her heart beating slightly faster. She didn't expect Gu Chenyu to be so proactive, a mix of excitement and nervousness intertwined in her heart. 0
 
Just as she was immersed in this sudden dinner invitation, the door of the restaurant was gently pushed open. Zhao Xiaotong, her assistant, walked in. She was a young girl, currently studying traditional Chinese medicine, and was curious about everything in the Chinese medicine shop. 0
 
 
Zhao Xiaotong couldn't help but joke when she saw Su Jinyu staring blankly, "Sister Su, are you on a date with some handsome guy? You're smiling so sweetly." 0
 
Su Jinyu was amused and waved her hand, "It's not as exaggerated as you said. By the way, I have something to do tonight, can you help me watch the store?" 0
 
 
Zhao Xiaotong patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, Su Jinyu. I'll take care of this little shop, it's on me!" She said with enthusiasm shining in her eyes. 0
 
Su Jinyu smiled as she watched Zhao Xiaotong's back, feeling a sense of emotion in her heart: everyone is searching for their place in this city, whether it's in love or in their careers. She put away her phone and refocused on her work, her anticipation and excitement lingering in her heart. 0
 
 
In the evening, Gu Chenyu appeared on time in front of Su Jinyu's traditional Chinese medicine shop. His figure appeared particularly tall and slender under the dim streetlights, and his dark suit made him look both formal and elegant, exuding a natural air of coolness. When Su Jinyu stepped out of the shop door, a hint of imperceptible admiration flashed in his eyes. 0
 
Su Jinyu deliberately wore a simple and elegant long skirt tonight, the hem swaying gently in the wind. She walked towards Gu Chenyu with her characteristic lively smile and said, "Gu Chenyu, it's really unexpected that you would invite me to dinner." 0
 
 
Gu Chenyu just responded lightly, "It's nice to change habits occasionally." His tone remained calm, but there was a hint of softness in his eyes. 0
 
The two of them arrived at an elegant French restaurant. The interior of the restaurant was exquisitely decorated, with warm yellow lighting and soft music adding a touch of romance to the dinner. They sat by the window, overlooking the bustling city night view outside. 0
 
 
During the meal, the two of them chatted very happily. Su Jinyu talked about some interesting experiences she had at the traditional Chinese medicine shop, revealing her wit and unique insights in her words. Gu Chenyu shared his experiences in the business world, and every sentence he spoke showed careful consideration. 0
 
"I've always been curious, how did you become so interested in traditional Chinese medicine?" Gu Chenyu asked, his eyes showing a hint of curiosity. 0
 
 
Su Jinyu smiled and replied, "It's probably because of the culture and history behind traditional Chinese medicine. Each medicinal herb carries a story with it." 0
 
After the meal, Gu Chenyu accidentally touched Su Jinyu's hand, which startled her. She looked up and met his gaze. There was a subtle and gentle warmth in Gu Chenyu's eyes, causing her heart to race. 0
 
 
After dinner, they took a stroll together in the night. The interplay of light and shadow from the street lamps added a touch of romance to the atmosphere. A gentle breeze blew, causing Su Jinyu to involuntarily move closer to Gu Chenyu. 0
 
Gu Chenyu looked at her and spoke in his usual indifferent yet sincere tone, "Tonight was very enjoyable." 0
 
 
Su Jinyu chuckled, "It seems like I need to change my impression of you, Gu Chenyu. You are not just a cold-faced CEO." 0
 
Gu Chenyu simply responded, "You always seem to be able to surprise people." His words were straightforward but carried a hint of casual concern. 0
 
 
They strolled together in the moonlight, the street lamps casting their glow upon the two, creating a romantic atmosphere. There was a slight chill in the air, but their hearts felt an unprecedented warmth. 0
 
As they walked to a secluded little park, that night, the moonlight spilled into the quiet park, elongating the figures of Gu Chenyu and Su Jinyu. The leaves rustled gently, making a rustling sound, as if witnessing this important moment. Gu Chenyu suddenly stopped, turned to face Su Jinyu, his gaze deep and serious, showing unusual determination. 0
 
 
"Su Jinyu, during this time, I've realized that my feelings for you have changed," his voice was deep, each word filled with weight. 0
 
Su Jinyu felt the weight of his words, her heart couldn't help but speed up, and her eyes revealed nervousness. She teasingly quipped, "Wow, Gu Chenyu, are you confessing? That's rare!" 0
 
 
Gu Chenyu's mouth slightly lifted, revealing a rare smile: "You are always so straightforward." He took a deep breath, with a hint of emotion in his tone that was not easily detectable: "I don't know how to describe this feeling, but I am sure that I want to take the next step with you. I want to be with you, to explore this emotion, and see where it will lead us." 0
 
Su Jinyu's eyes shimmered with complex emotions, a mix of surprise and deep affection. She gently bit her lip, her eyes filled with determination: "Gu Chenyu, I also want to walk with you and see where this emotion will take us." 0
 
 
In that quiet little park, Gu Chenyu and Su Jinyu stood so close that their breaths seemed to intertwine. Gu Chenyu's eyes were filled with depth and determination, his gaze seemingly searching for some kind of confirmation in Su Jinyu's eyes. His face looked even more handsome in the moonlight, with a faint smile on his lips. 0
 
Su Jinyu lifted her head slightly, her eyes shimmering with complex emotions, a hint of surprise and deep affection. She took a step closer to Gu Chenyu, until she could feel his warmth. Jokingly, she said, " Gu Chenyu, your way of confessing is both straightforward and romantic." 0
 
 
Gu Chenyu smiled gently, his voice low and tender: "In this matter, I just want to express my feelings directly." 0
 
Their faces slowly drew closer, with moonlight gently spilling around them. Gu Chenyu closed his eyes and gently kissed Su Jinyu's lips. The kiss was both gentle and passionate, filled with tenderness. Su Jinyu responded to the kiss, her heart racing, feeling the indescribable warmth and sweetness. 0
 
 
After the kiss, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, with a sparkle of happiness in their eyes. Gu Chenyu had a rare gentleness on his face, while Su Jinyu had a faint blush on her cheeks. 0
 
On that moonlit path, their hearts were tightly connected. The surrounding world seemed to stand still, leaving only their heartbeats, whispering their own story. The night in the city added a touch of romance to them. 0
 
 
After leaving the small park, Gu Chenyu and Su Jinyu continued their walk in the night, and the atmosphere between them became more intimate and natural. Su Jinyu felt much more relaxed, and her laughter became more natural and joyful. 0
 
"Gu Chenyu, you know, I used to think you were like a cold and aloof male god who was out of touch with the world, but tonight completely changed my imagination," Su Jinyu mischievously blinked her eyes. 0
 
 
Gu Chenyu looked at her from the side, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth: "Perhaps I'm just not good at expressing myself. But in front of you, I want to become more real." 0
 
Su Jinyu smiled, her steps becoming brisk: "Then I'll have to get to know the real Gu Chenyu more. But I have to remind you, I'm not the kind of person who is easily satisfied." 0
 
 
Gu Chenyu was slightly stunned, then replied, "I look forward to your challenge." 0
 
Their conversation was filled with ease and jokes, but there was a deeper emotion revealed in their eyes. Walking on the brightly lit streets, the distance between Gu Chenyu and Su Jinyu seemed to have shortened. Amid their laughter, there were occasional exchanges of affectionate glances. 0
 
 
Walking through a bustling night market, Su Jinyu suddenly stopped and excitedly pointed at a food stall, "Gu Chenyu, let's have some grilled skewers! The skewers from this place are super delicious." 0
 
Gu Chenyu hesitated slightly, but under Su Jinyu's excited gaze, he nodded. The two of them arrived at the stall, and Su Jinyu eagerly ordered many of her favorite skewers. Gu Chenyu stood quietly to the side, observing her every move. 0
 
 
When the skewers were brought to them, Su Jinyu immediately picked up a skewer of grilled beef and took a big bite, saying, "Ah, this taste is amazing! Gu Chenyu, you should try it too." 0
 
Gu Chenyu took the skewer, furrowed his brow slightly, but still took a small bite. His expression subtly changed, as if savoring this different flavor from before. 0
 
 
Su Jinyu Looking at his reaction, couldn't help but smile: "How is it? Is it a bit unexpected for you?" 0
 
Gu Chenyu Responded calmly: "Indeed it's somewhat different, but it's not bad." His voice remained calm, but there was a hint of relaxation in his eyes. 0
 
 
Su Jinyu's laughter echoed in the night sky, and she felt particularly happy. She looked at Gu Chenyu and felt an unprecedented sense of closeness and warmth. 0
 
After finishing the grilled skewers, the two continued to stroll on the street. Su Jinyu gently leaned on Gu Chenyu's shoulder, feeling his warmth. Gu Chenyu's body stiffened slightly, but soon relaxed, and his eyes shimmered with a gentle light. 0
 
 
"Gu Chenyu, do you know? I am very happy to have met you and to have walked here with you," Su Jinyu said softly. 0
 
Gu Chenyu looked back at her and said seriously, "I feel the same way, Su Jinyu. I am fortunate to have met you." 0
 
 
Gu Chenyu and Su Jinyu slowly walk under the city lights, their hearts closely connected in this simple and sincere conversation. 0
