As their eyes met, her words transformed into a stream of air and rushed into his heart, flowing and becoming a part of him. Jiang Yanzhou didn’t react much, his chestnut-colored eyes slightly squinted, and he didn’t say anything for a while. Eventually, a lazy smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, and his deep, hoarse voice broke the silence of the night as he asked her, “What secret?”
At this moment, the night fell upon the city, and dark clouds covered the stars and moon, while towering skyscrapers shone brightly, forming a sharp contrast with the gray sky. On the cold television screen, the second season of “Wilderness Survival” played, showing scenes of the four people: Lu Yang, Lu Mingyu, Jiang Yanzhou, and Pei Yiwu. Occasionally, the camera would show the other four people with numb expressions.
Qin Jue’s gaze fell on Pei Yiwu, who was hugging Lu Yang excitedly. Her expression remained unchanged, but her heart grew heavier. Pei Yiwu had been portrayed as a carefree and heartless person ever since she entered the public eye, and she didn’t care much about negative comments on the internet. She enjoyed extreme sports and had a unique perspective, which made netizens gradually like her.
Pei Yiwu seemed like an easily ignited can of soda, ready to explode at any moment, similar to Lu Mingyu. However, her emotions were usually stable, unless there was something specific. Lu Mingyu’s temper exploded with a loud “bang,” while Pei Yiwu was more likelv to hide her thoughts and hold a grudge.
That’s why Fei Zhen chose Pei Yiwu for the variety show.
In the top-floor office, the bright incandescent lights were blinding, and information about Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu was spread out on the desk in great detail. Qin Jue’s gaze fell upon the man emitting a cold, sharp aura. His gaze followed the man as if he saw a flame, illuminating the entire commercial district, even though they were standing in a densely packed high-rise building.
Qin Jue respectfully said, “We have obtained accurate information. Lu Yang likes a sweet girl like Miss Pei and is likely to develop feelings for her.” Qin
Zhen didn’t say anything, and the cold aura around him only grew stronger.
Qin Jue watched as Fei Zhen’s cigarette slowly burned out between his fingers, while he didn’t take a single drag. After a while, he put out the cigarette and spoke in his usual unemotional tone, “Keep watching.”
Qin Jue responded, “Okay,” and turned to leave, but he heard Fei Zhen say, “Qin Yitan.” Qin Jue was startled and looked down. “He’s my nephew. He wanted to get a mission from me, so he asked someone from the production team and found out in advance that Pei Yiwu would be on the show.” Fei Zhen didn’t reply, and Qin Jue nervously asked, “Should we kick him off the show?” Fei Zhen said, “No need.” Qin Jue breathed a sigh of relief.
After a moment of silence, Fei Zhen spoke again, “Send a gift to Lu Yang.”
Meanwhile, on the other side, Lu Mingyu stood in an open field. The late summer breeze carried a chill that signaled the approach of autumn, and his short hair was tousled by the impending cold air. “Pei Yiwu, we’re a team. Do you remember this?”
“Mm…” Pei Yiwu was very helpless. Wasn’t he the one who forgot they were a team?
Lu Mingyu said, “Let me talk to you about something. Yang Yang also said I should take care of you.” Pei Yiwu’s mind was a jumble, replaying scenes of Lu
Mingyu from online and the real-life Lu Mingyu he had just met, like a movie..
