Chapter 581: Gu Yuan Through the Photographer’s Lens

Chi Yu seems to have forgotten there’s a camera behind him.

The photographer has also become nonchalant, knowing it won’t be broadcast anyway.

Seeing Chi Yu heading towards President Gu, Yi Shu worries about when he might return, so he calls out to him again, stepping forward: "Chi Yu, the director team hopes..."

Afraid that Chi Yu might be impatient, Yi Shu delivers the director’s message as quickly as possible, after revising it a bit.

"In short, the entire program team hopes President Gu can appear on camera with you." Yi Shu glances at Chi Yu’s face while continuing: "Just see how you can persuade President Gu and if there’s any chance."

Do you think there’s any chance?!

To be honest, before broaching this topic, Yi Shu felt the chances were slim.

After all, it’s President Gu’s decision and he doesn’t change easily.

In this matter, the odds rest mostly with Chi Yu. So Yi Shu decided to ask Chi Yu’s opinion, putting aside any matrimonial motives, what would Chi Yu plan to do?

As he pondered, he unexpectedly heard Chi Yu say —

"Seems like you think highly of me."

Think highly?

Yi Shu looked at Chi Yu, not a terribly expressive face: "So... no chance?"

Chi Yu: "If I keep kneeling on durians, keyboards, and washboards, there might be a chance."

Yi Shu: "..."

Better forget about it.

No need for such sacrifice.

Anyway, Yi Shu was indifferent.

If a family of three’s interaction gets broadcast, the impact on Chi Yu is unpredictable. If Chi Yu fades because of such a lifestyle show, he’d have to prepare a plan B for his debut plan.

"Alright, don’t ask around about this. If I have plans, I’ll tell you. Let the director team’s thoughts rest for now." After saying that, Chi Yu turned and walked out.

Yi Shu responded with an ’oh’.

This guy is looking for his wife every day.

...

Chi Yu found Gu Yuan at the edge of the village.

He walked slowly, the sky turning increasingly dark, forcing him to use his phone for light.

Chi Yu, with nothing in his hands, walked steadily.

The photographer behind him wasn’t as steady.

Carrying a heavy camera on his shoulder, despite the phone lighting the path, the narrow field path could easily lead to missteps.

And indeed, he stepped wrong once.

The photographer fell into the field with the camera.

"I’ve been walking very slowly."

Chi Yu placed his hands on his hips, amused and helpless. On this path, it’s just him and the photographer walking at a distance, yet he still tripped.

Fortunately, the field was dry; the fall only dirtied his clothes slightly, unlike earlier where he sank into mud.

Chi Yu went down into the field, helping the photographer up. The photographer didn’t expect to fall while walking a night path as a grown man, blaming the heavy camera on his shoulder.

He smiled helplessly, got up with Chi Yu’s help, then went for the camera.

After checking the expensive camera thoroughly, finding no damage or issues, he continued following Chi Yu.

Just two steps forward, the photographer suddenly said: "Walk slower, I might rush to catch up and misstep again."

Chi Yu turned around, shining phone light on the photographer’s face: "At my speed, should I hold your hand as we walk?"

"..." No need for that.

Alright, Chi Yu was indeed walking slowly.

The two continued walking into the dark, occasionally asking when they saw someone, until they arrived at the village entrance.

There was a hexagonal pavilion lit by a warm, yellow light. Chi Yu immediately spotted Gu Yuan’s silhouette amidst a lively group of villagers.

And through the camera lens —

The focus quickly shifted from Chi Yu to Gu Yuan.

Under the pavilion, in a white buttoned gown, she stood out in the midst of everyday life, her presence eye-catching even from afar.

With gentleness, smiles filled her expressions, making everything seem insignificant in that moment.

No wonder the photographer couldn’t move his lens, fixed on Gu Yuan.

Chi Yu couldn’t take his eyes off her either, entranced from a distance, feeling infatuation beyond words.

A gentle nudge on his back, the photographer reacted first: "Brother Yu, were you entranced by President Gu just now?"
