The sky was getting dark, dawn’s twilight.
The navigation system indicated they were about to reach Ancient Water Village.
The photography crew had been eagerly waiting at the village’s bridge for Chi Yu to arrive.
"Finally here. Looking at the equipnt, those people at the bridge must be the photography crew," Yi Shu put away his phone, preparing to get off the car.
Xiong Yao said with relief, "We didn’t estimate correctly before setting off. The remaining fuel can barely cover another kiloter. Thankfully, we made it, otherwise we’d have to wait for them to pick us up, and if it starts raining, it would be even more embarrassing."
At this mont, a car drove up towards them.
Xiong Yao: "Seems like it’s not the program team’s car, but a village car."
Yi Shu glanced over and said in surprise, "There are actually nouveau riche in this village, driving such a luxurious car out here in the countryside."
A voice ca from the backseat, Chi Yu said, "Never mind the car. The road’s really narrow now. Yi Shu, keep an eye on the front wheels for Xiong Yao, make sure we don’t fall off the slope, that’ll be a problem."
"Got it." Yi Shu stuck his head out to guide.
As the car on the opposite side slowly approached, Chi Yu rolled down the window. As the car passed by, due to the one-way glass, they couldn’t see who was inside.
In the external rearview mirror, the license plate of the luxurious car was very clear. Chi Yu glanced at the license plate twice, Yi Shu asked from the front, "Do you know them?"
Chi Yu shook his head and rolled up the window, "No, I don’t."
Indeed, he didn’t know them. The license plate was new and unfamiliar.
...
Gu Yuan saw Chi Yu.
From the mont their cars t, she saw him, but she had raised the divider inside the car.
It wasn’t that the scenery stirred any feelings. In fact, the mont she saw him, she felt nothing. She knew everything had already been smoothed over. She didn’t want to et by chance simply because she was in a hurry; tonight, it’s going to rain heavily in the direction of Ancient Water Village. She wouldn’t trouble herself for unrelated people.
Dao An, who was driving, felt the atmosphere was too heavy, so he broke the silence, "Didn’t expect that the people coming to record the program in Ancient Water Village would be Chi Yu and his team. He actually ca to the countryside; I guess he’s had enough good days and ca to seek sothing simpler."
Dao An was Gu Yuan’s secretary and a capable deputy, having been by her side for several years.
In the past, Dao An wouldn’t dare to joke about Chi Yu in front of Gu Yuan, because President Gu was very protective.
Gu Yuan said, "Focus on driving."
"Yes, President Gu." Dao An sensibly stopped talking about it.
Gu Yuan looked down at her electronic wristwatch and frowned, "Speed up and make sure we leave this mountain bay before the heavy rain hits."
"But President Gu, the road’s surface isn’t very smooth now, speeding up will make the ride bumpier."
Gu Yuan: "If you hope that the heavy rain causes a landslide and buries us, then by all ans, take your ti."
Dao An: "..."
The sky was a dark mass, like a bottomless black hole, or a giant beast about to awaken from slumber. The wind had already started blowing, sending branches swaying and dust on the road swirling like fog. The July weather changed abruptly.
Large raindrops pounded on the car body, making a dull thud, as the rain started pouring.
Farmhouse.
The village chief warmly welcod the program team and arranged for his wife to prepare a sumptuous dinner.
All the vegetables and fish were brought by the program team, everyone was comfortable with the al.
Yu Yang, Lin Xijiang, and other important personnel were discussing the recording plan for tomorrow. Sheng Yi had no appetite and only ate a little before playing on his phone. Liu Ru and Weng Lan, the two managers, were chatting casually, while Li Yan went to look for Chi Yu.
