The first ray of morning sunlight pierced through the thin mist, the horizon showing a touch of white.
When Gu Yuan woke up, Chi Yu was already fully dressed, standing by her bed.
As she looked over, the exquisite and stunning profile of his face made Gu Yuan feel a sense of bewilderment. She slowly raised her hand to cover her eyes, wanting to rest for two more minutes. A warm, soft sensation gradually deepened on her lips...
Gu Yuan murmured, and any other sound was swallowed completely.
When she removed the hand covering her eyes, her lips already had a glowing sheen. Seeing Chi Yu about to get up, she grabbed his hand, her fingertips gently scratching his palm, offering her explanation: "I will be going on a business trip to Haojiang for four days."
After speaking, noticing Chi Yu's face didn't look too pleased, Gu Yuan added, "I'll try my best to rush back on the day of your concert."
That seemed to satisfy him.
Chi Yu leaned down again, propping a hand beside Gu Yuan's pillow, lightly pecking her forehead: "The concert day is very important, you absolutely cannot miss it."
It really is very important.
Gu Yuan responded, "Okay."
Said and done.
Originally, Gu Yuan's business schedule in Haojiang was packed, meeting with prominent figures there. In order to make it back for Chi Yu's second concert since debut, she forcefully cut her schedule down to two and a half days.
Because she had to rush back, she could only leave her secretary, Dao An, in Haojiang to follow up.
Gu Yuan took the opportunity to catch up on sleep during the journey back, as she hardly had any rest during the tight two-and-a-half-day schedule.
...
At dusk, as the city lights came on.
The iconic buildings of Sui City were radiating dazzling and colorful brilliance.
The Olympic Sports Center was already a spectacle, with brilliant fireworks streaking across the night sky, presenting smoke tinted a fiery red. The red was, of course, because this year was Chi Yu's natal year.
Shouts, clamor, rumbles, and unified slogans rose and fell——
"For life and lifetimes!! Chi Chi encounter!!"
"For life and lifetimes!! Chi Chi encounter!!"
"Pure yet alluring!! None but Chi Yu!!"
"Pure yet alluring!! None but Chi Yu!!"
"Chi Yu's mom loves you ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!"
"I'm finished, my knees unknowingly collapse whenever I see Chi Yu."
"Support me, I'm too excited to stand, damn!"
"Chi Yu, my life! Chi Yu, I love you so much!!"
Chi Yu! Chi Yu!
Chi is his surname, red is his destiny.
Debuting at the pinnacle, with unrivaled resources, he conquered the entertainment circle, admired by many, envied by more. In terms of resources, he's the kingpin of the industry. In terms of looks, he's the timeless beauty.
Yet no one outside knows that behind Chi Yu's splendor stands a woman named Gu Yuan.
—At this moment.
On the orange-gold pentagram stage, the accompaniment music set the whole venue ablaze.
Under the spotlight, red smoke billowed, covering the entire Olympic Sports Center with cheers.
Gu Yuan was nearly deafened by those cheers, as it was her first official concert attendance, it was somewhat overwhelming. But upon seeing the silhouette emerging through the dispersing red smoke on stage, she felt it was all worth it.
Hearing the fans' enthusiastic shouts, Sheng Yi, a friend who came with Gu Yuan, playfully conducted an on-the-spot interview with her: "President Gu, how do you feel seeing your man shining on stage?"
Gu Yuan supported her chin with one hand, watching the dazzling man onstage, softly spoke, "A whole city empties to see Chi Yu, my joy you cannot imagine."
Sheng Yi pulled up her mask, crossing her hands: "Refusing to be force-fed this romantic show."
