Chapter 29: Sudden Joy

  The next day, Gu Xixin stayed at home and rested for a day. Apart from sleeping well, she also packed her luggage for Shanghai. Previously, Yin Shu had called her to say that the company would be very busy today, so he wouldn't accompany her for dinner, but he would try to rush to the airport tomorrow morning to see her off.

  Gu Zi Xin is not like ordinary girls, always treating herself as a princess, most of the time she is very reasonable, hearing Yin Shu say this, knowing he is indeed busy with work, and does not blame him.

  The next day, Gu Xixin got up early, packed her bags, had breakfast and took a taxi to the airport.

  At 10:00, with twenty minutes left before boarding, Gu Xixin looked towards the entrance again, but still couldn't see a familiar figure. On her way here, Gu Xixin received a call from Yin Shu, saying that the company was having an emergency meeting and he might not be able to make it to send her off, telling her to be careful on her own.

  Although Gu Xixin is reasonable, she still can't see her boyfriend before boarding the plane, and her mood is not good. Gu Xixin hopes that Yin Shuo wants to give her a surprise, maybe Yin Shuo will suddenly appear in the airport hall, so she always holds on to a glimmer of hope and stares at the exit. But there is no familiar figure among the crowd coming and going.

  The broadcast has already reminded that the registration time is up, Gu Xixin listlessly picked up her luggage and passed the security check, handed over the boarding pass to the flight attendant, and carried her box onto the plane to find a seat.

  Because it was economy class, there were more passengers, and the cabin was bustling with people walking back and forth to find their seats and standing up to stow their luggage, which made Gu Xixin feel a bit annoyed.

  Gu Xixin took a last glance at her phone, then turned it off and tossed it into her bag. She smoothed out her hair, turned around and gazed out the window. Before long, she felt the seat beside her sink down as another passenger sat down.

  There were still many people in the cabin, Gu Xixin kept looking out of the window, suddenly, she felt that the person next to her leaned towards her, Gu Xixin thought it was probably because the aisle was too narrow, so she moved a bit inside, as a result, the person next to her also moved a bit. Gu Xixin moved again, and the person next to her also rubbed against her this way.

  Gu Xixin was a bit angry, even on a plane in broad daylight, you want to eat tofu!

  Just as I turned around and was about to scold him a couple of times, I accidentally bumped into a pair of smiling eyes.

  Yin Shu was dressed in casual attire, looking relaxed and carefree. Gu Xi Xin covered her mouth and let out a sharp cry, rushing over to give Yin Shu a big hug.

  "What are you doing here?"

  "Go with you to Shanghai."

  "Don't you have work?"

  "I rushed out of work overtime yesterday, I'll accompany you for two days, and when your training starts, I'll be back."

  Gu Xixin felt the sudden joy gradually filling her entire chest, and she didn't know what to say. Her throat was blocked with emotion, and her eyes were starting to get hot, Gu Xixin thought that if this continued, she would probably end up crying, so she could only tightly hug Yin Shuo again.

  Gu Xixin has always yearned for Shanghai, and it has been that way for many years. However, in the past, her family was not wealthy, and she didn't have the spare money to travel to Shanghai for fun. Later, due to work being too busy, she couldn't find the time, so her dream trip to Shanghai had yet to come true.

  Gu Xixin was not interested in those big or small, famous or unknown scenic spots, but she had always been thinking about Shanghai's snacks. Moreover, Gu Xixin's training location was at the International Conference Center on Binjiang Avenue, so after getting off the plane, they rushed to a star-rated hotel that had already been booked in Huangpu District.

  In the room, Gu Xixin slightly made up for herself and changed into a slightly more formal outfit before walking out of the room to knock on Yin Shu's door next door.

  Before getting off the plane and arriving at the hotel, Gu Zixin still had some small entanglements. But when the two arrived at the hotel front desk, Yin Shuo reported his name and said he had booked two rooms, Gu Zixin was still a little touched, for Yin Shuo's thoughtfulness, and for the peace of mind he gave her.

  The door opened, and Yin Shu changed into a light gray casual suit, looking less formal than in the company, but with another kind of elegance. Gu Zixin found herself slightly infatuated again.

  Since the Oriental Pearl Tower was nearby, they went straight to the revolving restaurant on the top floor for a buffet. The Oriental Pearl Tower is one of Shanghai's iconic buildings, and its rooftop revolving restaurant is popular among tourists due to its serene environment and expansive views. Dining in the spherical restaurant allows for a 360-degree view of the entire cityscape at night, making for a delightful experience.

  Gu Xixin's mood has always been good, the two of them chatted while eating at the restaurant, Gu Xixin's mouth never stopped talking. Yin Shuo smiled and looked at Gu Xixin who had never been so happy before, his eyes were filled with gentle warmth.

  Gu Zhixin's appetite increased greatly today, walking back and forth along the food counter, wanting to eat everything in sight, drinks, wine, desserts, all kinds of dishes were ordered.

  After sitting down, the two of them chatted while enjoying the night view. As they talked, they had already eaten quite a bit. Yin Shuo looked like he was almost full, but Gu Qixing still seemed unsatisfied, taking dish after dish, until finally even she felt a little embarrassed.

  Just when Yin Shu thought she had finally eaten her fill, Gu Zixin hesitated and said: "I want to eat another piece of cake."

  Yin Shu couldn't help but want to laugh, Gu Zhi Xin looked at Yin Shu who was about to laugh but didn't, and glared at him for a while. Still unable to resist the temptation of good food, she happily got up and went to get cake. Yin Shu watched Gu Zhi Xin's back, his eyes filled with deeper and deeper laughter.

  When Gu Zixin sat down to eat her usual snacks, Yin Shuo stared at her with an expression that was trying not to laugh as she ate quickly. Until Gu Zixin felt like she had to say something.

  "What's wrong with eating a bit more? Why are you laughing like that, are you mocking me?"

  "No, I think you're cute."

  "I don't believe it."

  "Just now when I saw you eating dish by dish, I was thinking that a girl who eats without any manners like this, I must take her home as my wife in this lifetime."

  Gu Xixin had been lowering her head to eat cake, thinking that she wouldn't hear anything good from Yin Shuo's mouth. Unexpectedly, what entered her ears was such a sweet and pleasant phrase.

  During the time Gu Xixin and Yin Shu were together, Yin Shu never said "I love you" to her. Gu Xixin was not a naive young girl who would be satisfied with just words, she knew that actions spoke louder than words. So she didn't expect much. But now, hearing Yin Shu's direct confession, skipping the three words "I love you" that most people yearn for and going straight to the level of marriage, to be honest, this had a great attraction to Gu Xixin, she couldn't help but feel moved.
