,” Gu Xizhou said helplessly.
It was only after he came up that he realized that this shopping mall would only have this kind of thousand per person restaurants.

Xiang Yuan felt bad, and left some of his colleagues behind, but there were still more than a dozen people there, ah!

Then he turned around to see Gu Xizhou ordering food unceremoniously with practiced actions.
He didn’t treat himself as an outsider at all.

After eating, the other team members began to call taxis and depart.
The remaining girls caught a ride from Gu Xizhou and took the elevator down together.
Just as they reached the car, Gu Xizhou heard the screech of tires immediately followed by the sound of a collision. 

Screech—

 

That screech was unpleasant for the ears.
Gu Xizhou watched as a car that had just started to move came to a halt and a man Gu Xizhou recognized as Si Yu’s new chairman Yu Yang got out.

Yu Yang’s face looked distressed as he got out of the car.
He raised his head, catching sight of Si Yu like a mouse seeing a cat. 

Si Yu frowned slightly.
He glanced at Yu Yang and asked, “Why did you get out?”

Yu Yang: “President Si… It’s nothing.
I wasn’t paying attention when I started my car and accidentally smashed the headlights of the Land Rover next to me.”

Hearing this sentence, Gu Xizhou implicitly looked for his car in the parking lot.
His headlights… were broken…

“You can’t leave with a broken headlight.” Evidently, Si Yu also recognized Gu Xizhou’s car.
“I’ll drive you home.” 

In the end, Si Yu drove everyone who was catching a ride with Gu Xizhou and Gu Xizhou got into Si Yu’s car.

Sitting in Si Yu’s car, Gu Xizhou massaged his forehead and said, “Isn’t this the second time someone has hit my car around you? I’ll have to take a taxi to work tomorrow again.”

 

“You blame me?”

“En.” Gu Xizhou was noncommittal. 

Si Yu started the car and asked, “You don’t want to take a taxi?”

Gu Xizhou rolled his eyes, “Duh.”

Si Yu’s gaze deepened as he glanced at him, following Gu Xizhou’s directions to his house without speaking.
When they reached the gate to his community, Gu Xizhou looked at his home and remembered the question he had posed yesterday.
Suddenly, he didn’t want to go home.

“Do you want to go get a drink?” Si Yu suddenly asked as he stopped the car. 

Gu Xizhou was surprised, “En?”

“Your mood isn’t so good.
I can keep you company.”

“You can tell?”

Si Yu’s lips curved up as he looked over at Gu Xizhou and said mildly, “You don’t have to be a criminal police officer to have good observation skills.” 

The two left through the neighborhood gate with Si Yu in the lead.
It was only then that Gu Xizhou realized there was actually a bar not far from his apartment.
Additionally, the lights and the wine here were green, making one feel as if nothing was real.

The bar was very loud, and the people there all wore revealing clothes.
Gu Xizhou didn’t really like these kinds of places, and clearly neither did Si Yu.
He raised his eyebrows and grabbed Gu Xizhou’s hand, walking quickly down the street to a quiet bar ten minutes away.
There was no one inside or outside the bar.

Gu Xizhou went in, and the two ordered wine and found a spot in a corner of the bar.
Si Yu quietly accompanied Gu Xizhou to drink.
Every time he drank he would just sip at it.
More often than not, he would simply watch Gu Xizhou drink.

Gu Xizhou had been worried about how he should answer if Si Yu asked him why he was upset, but he was worried for nothing.
Si Yu accompanied him to drink without asking. 

Gu Xizhou’s gaze only rested on Si Yu for an instant before he noticed another man with a couple of wine glasses coming over.

“Hello, I haven’t seen you before.” The man said politely, setting the two wine glasses in his hands down on the table.
“Please, have some wine.”

Si Yu glanced at him indifferently, pushing away the glass of wine in front of him, “No need.”

The man paid no mind to Si Yu’s rejection.
It was Gu Xizhou he was after.
“You and I live in the same community.
I’ve seen you many times…” 

Gu Xizhou interrupted the man before he could finish.
“I don’t care who you are.”

“Okay, ba.” The man rubbed his nose, embarrassed.
He didn’t care about rejection, he just regretted it.

 

After the man left and went to go sit in a corner, Gu Xizhou stared at the wine glass before suddenly opening his mouth to ask Si Yu: “In the mission world, are there any props that can bring people back to life?”

“No,” Si Yu replied without any hesitation. 

Gu Xizhou heard Si Yu answer so quickly and fell into a daze.
Actually, in his eyes, the mission world was quite magical.
It could replenish the life of the dying, so it could also be possible to resurrect someone.

Then Si Yu glanced at Gu Xizhou and amended, “At least, not that I know of.”

“Oh…”

In the hallway stood two tall silhouettes. 

“En… En?” Gu Xizhou’s footsteps were unsteady.
“This is it… 705… Thanks… for sending me home.”

The man supporting him gave a small laugh.
His voice was bright and clear despite carrying a trace of intoxication.
His eyes curved slightly, watching Gu Xizhou intently.
“You’re welcome.”

After Si Yu found Gu Xizhou’s key, opening the door with a click, he stood outside the door supporting Gu Xizhou.

Inside the apartment, Gu Ji Ji heard the sound and turned his head to see two figures standing outside the door.
His eyes were fathomless, obscuring his emotions in the depths of his eyes.
He sat on the sofa unmoving as he quietly watched the man help Gu Xizhou into the room. 

After a while the man came out of the room and dug out his cellphone.

“En, send someone over to pick me up.
I had a little bit of wine.”

Gu Ji Ji sat on the sofa sizing the man up carefully.
He recognized him at a glance.
This was his comrade from the mission world Si Yaoxing, the man who Gu Xizhou looked for everytime, Si Yu.

Si Yu looked at the things on the coffee table in Gu Xizhou’s living room, noticing that there were a lot of used sticky notes, several pencils, as well as one information booklet. 

Gu Ji Ji watched Si Yu take out a ring of keys and set it on the table before racing out to pick up the things on the table, furrowing his brows subconsciously.
The table was covered in books and notes that all had things written on them, and Si Yaoxing was sure to catch sight of something troublesome… Gu Ji Ji’s outstretched hand hovered in midair.
He was just about to grab the sticky note, but his opponent was quicker.

Si Yu didn’t read the contents of the note, seemingly uninterested in the conversation written on it.
He picked up a pen and wrote a few words on it.

Gu Ji Ji leaned over to look at the note.
Written on the note was: I left my car downstairs.
When your car is repaired, return it to me.

The car broke down? 

The house ghost’s expression changed slightly.

Twenty minutes later, Si Yu’s car had already arrived at the gate of the community and he opened the door to leave.

 

Noticing Si Yu’s actions, Gu Ji Ji got up to go check on the hungover Gu Xizhou.
He was looking at Si Yu standing at the door for a moment when a trace of surprise flashed suddenly in his eyes.

“Peng.” 

The door closed.

Inside the room, Gu Ji Ji furrowed his brows, wondering if he was thinking too much.
Just now, in the instant the door closed, Si Yu seemed to be looking at him…
