After dinner, Elder Chief claimed he wanted to watch the evening news and purposely asked Jiang Yi to accompany Gu Xici for a stroll, to get familiar with the area.
Jiang Yi had eaten too much and just happened to want to go out for a walk to aid digestion, so she agreed without hesitation.
Having changed into a coat and washed her face, Jiang Yi found Gu Xici already waiting at the door.
Gu Xici looked very handsome today, with his grey-blue pupils, coupled with gold-rimmed glasses, and a camel-colored, knee-length, light wool coat—simple yet exuding luxury.
The two walked along the banks of the Yan Qing River nearby.
Gu Xici was quite talkative, humorously recounting some of the interesting events that happened while he was studying abroad.
But Jiang Yi said very little. Before leaving, she had sent a message to Wen Suihan, who hadn't replied, probably busy with something.
