Shock! I became the protagonist of a female-oriented novel.

Chapter Ninety-One Tenderness

Gu Qiushui was only a guest on one episode of "Food is Coming".

However, with the end of the year approaching, she had no further work to do, and besides—

She also wanted to spend time with Yu Ci, so she stayed at the filming location to accompany him through the last few days of his work.

Before this, whenever Yu Ci made cakes or something on the show, he would share them with the crew, but now—

The director, seeing Yu Ci about to leave with the beautiful chocolate cake, quickly called out to her, "Hey, Yu Ci, leave the cake behind!"

"Oh dear, this cake is high in calories. If you eat it, you'll gain at least five pounds."

"The camera is really cruel to actors, you know. If you gain five pounds, you'll turn into a ball." He coughed twice. "Why don't you keep it and share it with us!"

Yu Ci, carrying the cake, shook his head, "Director, no, we can't give you this cake today."

"...Wow, Xiaoyu, you've been bringing all the cakes home lately." The director exclaimed, "You don't seem like you're going to eat them all yourself, is something going on?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Ci lowered his eyes, smiled slightly, and then remained silent.

The director clicked his tongue twice in his mind, then waved his hand, "Alright, alright, since it's something for lovers, I won't eat it."

"go Go."

"Thank you, director."

Leaving the recording studio felt like a bird released from its cage; Yu Ci, carrying the cake, practically jumped for joy.

At this moment, she had only one destination in mind: the hotel.

Tsk.

Miss Gu Qiushui, who was guarding the empty room, was waiting for her to return.

However, Yu stopped jumping after only a short time.

Because there was a car following her, she stopped and looked to the side. A low-key gray sedan rolled down its window, and a familiar face came into view. Her eyes lit up.

-

In the car.

Sit in the front passenger seat and fasten your seatbelt.

Gu Qiushui put the square cake down, her voice tinged with a hint of amusement, "What happened? You seem...so happy?"

"nothing."

"Yu Ci, did your teacher ever teach you a single sentence?"

Yu Ci glanced sideways, looking puzzled. "What did you say?"

With her hands on the steering wheel and her foot on the gas, the car sped across the road. Gu Qiushui's voice, carried by the wind, said, "Let me tell you, one must be honest."

"..."

"Why are you happy?"

She pressed on, and Yu Ci slumped in her chair, "Can't I be happy for no reason?" She just didn't want to say those... shameful and hurtful things.

"Yes, that's fine," Gu Qiushui nodded. "Of course, but—"

"I'd be happy to speak the truth."

Yu Ci responded with an "oh".

Where are you driving to?

"You get off work early today. I heard there's a reservoir nearby where you can fish..."

"I don't like fishing."

“I know,” Gu Qiushui said. “You can catch your own fish to eat. I remember you seem to really like eating fish.”

The car kept driving, and after chatting about the reservoir for a while, Yu Ci suddenly said, "Actually, the thought of seeing you when I get home after get off work today makes me... quite happy."

She looked at the wide road ahead, her eyes gradually softening.

"Yeah, I was happy to wait for you at the hotel, so happy that I couldn't wait and drove straight out to find you."

“Oh,” Yu Ci said, “I know.”

I know she likes her.

-

Not many people come here to ice fish in winter. After the two of them got their fishing rods and bait from the reservoir, they sat on a high spot to enjoy the scenery.

The person in charge told the two that the spot they had chosen was not good; fish didn't go there often, so it was difficult to catch any.

But the two of them were very open-minded.

It's okay if you don't catch anything; as long as you can enjoy the scenery of the reservoir, you can just buy food when you want to eat.

Facing the slight cool breeze and looking at the water with a thin layer of ice in front of him, Yu Ci looked at the river hole that the person in charge had smashed out, turned his head and asked Gu Qiushui, "Should we throw this hook in?"

"Hmm." It seems so.

"Then I'll give it a try."

Yuci's first attempt at casting the hook failed.

Wow, she was determined to try again.

Unfortunately, the second attempt to cast the hook also failed.

After baiting the hook for the third time, Yu Ci strutted about proudly and arrogantly—

He handed his fishing rod to Gu Qiushui, who was standing to the side, and said in a deep voice, "This fishing rod is discriminating against me, you take turns casting it."

Gu Qiushui smiled helplessly and said, "Okay."

The long fishing rod jerked in the air, the silver hook with bait gleaming as it flew swiftly away, and then—

It crashed onto the ice.

The atmosphere became slightly awkward. Gu Qiushui paused for a moment, then quickly pulled the fishing rod back and cast it again.

Once, it failed; twice, it failed again.

The fishing process hadn't even begun when it seemed like we'd encountered a major obstacle; we simply couldn't cast the line into the ice hole...

Two elderly reservoir managers watching from the side wanted to help the two people, but they were stopped by a young lifeguard after taking only a few steps.

"What are you doing? Go over there."

"You definitely won't catch any fish this way. Our reservoir can't cheat people!"

"..."

"Alright, alright, Uncle Liu, don't go over there." The young man waved his hand. "Look at the car they drove here. Do they look like people who are short of money for fish? Don't go over there and disturb their mood."

Old administrator: ...

"Alright, let's get away from here, the two of us men."

Ugh, it's so close, the stench is practically wafting over.

-

After struggling for more than half an hour, the fishing hook finally went down.

But the hook went down, and the fish... never came.

At first, the two would quietly wait for the fish to bite, but later, when there were fewer people around, they simply ignored the fishing hook and chatted, took pictures, and talked about the past.

The wind was getting a bit cold. Gu Qiushui looked at the sky and immediately grabbed Yu Ci's hand.

"Alright, it's getting cold, let's go back."

When the topic of going back came up, Yu Ci thought of the water bucket.

"Didn't catch a single fish..."

"It's okay, just buy it."

"Ok."

The disappointment of not catching any fish was quickly dispelled by the all-fish feast that night.

At ten o'clock, after a satisfying meal, just as the two were about to head back, Gu Qiushui posted a message on Weibo.

Gu Qiushui: I've always heard that the whole fish feast here is famous. I used to dislike eating fish because I thought there were too many bones, but now I think... the fish is very good, delicious. #pictures #pictures #pictures

A group of fans quickly searched for the location of the whole fish banquet and then began to praise the fish in various ways. Gu Qiushui only glanced at it before turning off her phone.

Return journey.

After driving for a long time, Yu Ci couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep in the passenger seat.

Having achieved her goal, Gu Qiushui couldn't help but lean down and kiss Yu Ci, who was fast asleep beside her.

The soft, fragrant flavor bursts forth on the lips.

……

The fish was indeed delicious.

Chapter Ninety-Two: I'll Be With You Until the End (39-92 Complete)

With your lover by your side, a week passes quickly.

The first episode of "Food is Coming" has come to an end.

Around New Year's Day...

There are no film crews shooting.

Gu Qiushui's endorsements and music video were also secured. As an actress who specializes in selling her dramas and roles, she rarely participates in various gala performances. As for Yu Ci—

Although they were fairly well-known, they were definitely not at the level to be invited to New Year's Eve galas, so the two of them, who were unemployed, were quite laid-back.

Lying at home, you can do whatever you like, whatever you want.
