Jiang Ning covered his head with a quilt to block out all the noise from the outside world.

She was lying in bed, swiping her phone boredly. There were a lot of messages she hadn't replied to, and Jiang Ning didn't want to reply, so she just ignored them.

"Did you have a good lunch?"

Jiang Ning took a look and saw that it was a voice message from Gu Yuan. There was an indescribable doting in his tone, which made people feel the happiness through the words.

Jiang Ning replied politely: "It's good. Have you eaten?"

"I had a meeting with a boss from out of town today. He treated us to some seaside specialties. I thought they tasted pretty good. I'll take you to try them when I have the chance."

Jiang Ning could almost imagine Gu Yuan's expression when he said this. He must have been smiling, and he could hear it between the lines.

"it is good."

After the brief conversation, I felt sleepy and fell into a deep sleep after a while.

In a trance, Jiang Ning seemed to feel someone sitting next to her, and a pleasant and fresh smell enveloped her entire body. This smell was enough to make her feel at ease and fall into a deep sleep.

When Jiang Ning woke up, he realized that those were not dreams but real.

Gu Yuan was sitting next to her. When Jiang Ning saw him, she immediately sat up and hugged him as if she had found a life-saving straw.

"What's going on? We haven't seen each other for just half a day. Are you under too much pressure?"

Jiang Ning buried his head in Gu Yuan's arms and shook his head, signaling him that it was not the case.

"Well, you can lie down as long as you want. I have already finished today's work in advance and came here just to accompany you."

Jiang Ning stopped talking and just leaned in his arms peacefully.

Gu Yuan rushed over after finishing his work for the day. He wanted to see her as soon as possible. He originally wanted to pick up Jiang Ning after get off work, but when he arrived at the crew, he found that almost everyone was staying in the lounge and no one was filming.

After asking others, he found out what was going on. Then he found Jiang Ning and sat down beside her. Looking at Jiang Ning's sleeping profile, Gu Yuan thought it was very beautiful. He did not wake her up, but just stayed with Jiang Ning until she woke up.

As a result, she threw herself into his arms as soon as she woke up. He didn't know why, so Gu Yuan asked tentatively:

"So...are you hungry? How about we go eat?"

Jiang Ning still didn't respond. Gu Yuan was worried. He was afraid that Jiang Ning had something that she didn't dare to tell him.

"Are you feeling unwell? Can I go to the hospital with you?"

Jiang Ning finally spoke and said, "I'm fine."

"I'm glad you're okay. I was worried because you didn't say anything."

Gu Yuan picked up Jiang Ning like a princess, put all of Jiang Ning's things into the bag he carried with him, and carried her into the car.

Other people in the crew also saw it and covered their mouths with their hands to laugh, but most of them were kind. Jiang Ning buried her face in Gu Yuan's arms embarrassedly.

It was not until Gu Yuan put her in the car that Jiang Ning's tense nerves relaxed. She stretched comfortably, as if all her fatigue was swept away.

Gu Yuan put the things in the back seat of the car, then walked to the passenger seat, fastened Jiang Ning's seat belt, fastened his own seat belt, and drove Jiang Ning back to the hotel.

On the way back, to Jiang Ning, even the wind seemed free.

Looking at the night view outside the window, Jiang Ning had a long-lost feeling, as if he hadn't had this kind of pure rest for a long time.

In the past, Jiang Ning was always disturbed by various things and never had time to relax.

Jiang Ning said to Gu Yuan, "Thank you for your hard work. You go to work during the day and come to pick me up after get off work at night."

Gu Yuan smiled calmly, "What's the big deal? Isn't it my duty to pick you up?"

Jiang Ning: "Hey, do you really think so?"

Gu Yuan: "Of course."

"That's good."

Jiang Ning moved the passenger seat back further so that he could lie fully on it.

The summer night breeze was cool yet had a hint of warmth, and there was also a smell unique to summer nights, which fascinated her.

Passing by the night market, Jiang Ning suddenly had the idea of ​​going down to take a look.

Jiang Ning asked Gu Yuan: "Have you ever been to a night market before?"

Gu Yuan was concentrating on driving. When he heard Jiang Ning talking, he glanced at her window and said calmly, "No."

Jiang Ning finally gained the upper hand in some aspects, and her tone was inevitably tainted with a hint of pride.

"Then your visit today is worthwhile. There is a night market over there. How about I go with you to take a look? I remember the last time I went there was when I was in college. It's been a long time since I went there. I still miss it a little bit."

Jiang Ning looked at Gu Yuan with expectation, and Gu Yuan also felt it.

"It's all right. I don't mind."

Although he said this, he parked the car in a parking space very close to the night market, apparently agreeing with Jiang Ning's idea.

"Let's go, it's my turn to take you with me this time."

After Gu Yuan parked the car, Jiang Ning unbuckled his seat belt and jumped out of the car.

Gu Yuan also got out of the car. He was still wearing the suit and shirt he wore to work, without a tie, but he still looked very formal, probably because of his physique.

There were a wide variety of stalls in front of me, selling all kinds of strange and exotic things. There were snack stalls on both sides. The aroma was particularly strong and went straight into people's nostrils, whetting their appetites.

Gu Yuan looked at the scene in front of him and felt a little overwhelmed. He had never been to such a place before. Especially after seeing the leftover garbage on the ground, he didn't know where to start.

Jiang Ning still stubbornly pulled him forward, heading straight for the various fried foods at the Nanmen Night Market.

Gu Yuan let Jiang Ning lead him around, not even thinking about whether he would get sick from eating these foods. Jiang Ning took him to the familiar stall and enthusiastically introduced the deliciousness of each one to him.

"Gu Yuan, do you like sweet or spicy food?"

"I'm fine with it, whatever you want."

Gu Yuan looked at the full jars of seasoning in front of him, feeling a little confused and not knowing what Jiang Ning was asking him.

Jiang Ning started talking to the boss skillfully. It seemed that Jiang Ning was an old customer.

"Then boss, it's still the same, sweet and sour with a hint of spicy, double serving."

"Okay, wait a moment."

The owner of the snack stand picked up the cooking spoon and threw various seasonings into the pot. The flames shot up high, and after stir-frying over high heat, a dish of spicy street food with a thick and red sauce was ready.

The proprietress put the finished food into a bag and inserted two skewers into it, and that was it.

Jiang Ning took it and quickly put a mouthful into his mouth, praising it repeatedly: "It still tastes the same as I remember. Gu Yuan, come and try it. It's really delicious."

Jiang Ning handed the bowl to Gu Yuan's mouth and fed him a big mouthful of food with a skewer.

At first, Gu Yuan refused, but after taking one bite, he couldn't stop. The sweet and sour juice burst in his mouth, mixed with the taste of chili, and paired with the crisp side dishes, it was delicious.

"It's delicious, isn't it? I didn't lie to you."

"Hmm."

Gu Yuan just nodded without saying anything, his mouth full of food. Jiang Ning gave the whole portion to Gu Yuan, and went to find other delicious food.

But she couldn't eat much of anything, and the rest all went into Gu Yuan's mouth. The two of them ate very full before returning to the hotel.
