[Suddenly realizing Lin Yu is actually really handsome. Like that classic, proper kind of handsome. Looks like a super dependable guy! And standing next to Si Churao—they actually match really well. My inner shipper is kicking in again!]

When Si Churao left, Ji Hanming quickly ran over. "Sister Yu, let me team up with you? It's always better to have someone to talk things through with than working alone."

Yu Qianxia was about to nod in agreement when Shan Xingyou suddenly walked up and called out, "Ji Hanming..."

Ji Hanming wasn't familiar with him and was a bit confused hearing his name out of nowhere. "Uh? Hi, hello?"

Shan Xingyou gave him a slight nod and said, "Yeah, hey. I think Yu Muqiu wants to team up with you. Why don't you go with him?"

Ji Hanming blinked in confusion. Huh? Yu Muqiu wanted to team up with him? What was going on? Were they even close? Not at all. He couldn't help glancing at Yu Muqiu, who was standing alone not far away.

The young film emperor with striking looks had a faint air of loneliness around him.

Ji Hanming hesitated for a moment.

Just then, the system suddenly popped up:
[Host, this Shan Xingyou is lying. Yu Muqiu never wanted to team up with Ji Hanming!]

[This guy's scheming is about to smack me in the face! What a sneaky move!]

Yu Qianxia frowned slightly. After a moment of thought, she said to Ji Hanming, "You go team up with Yu Muqiu. I'll go find Ye Yanshuang."

"Huh? Xia—" Shan Xingyou immediately panicked, opening his mouth to try and stop the cool, aloof girl.

But Yu Qianxia didn't give him a second glance. She dropped that line and turned to walk toward Ye Yanshuang.

Not even a sliver of attention was spared for him. Shan Xingyou clenched his palm, a wave of frustration hitting him.

System: [Host, why didn't you team up with Shan Xingyou?]

Yu Qianxia: [Didn't want to. I hate people who lie.]

System: [What do you think of Shan Xingyou? You two grew up together, didn't you?]

Yu Qianxia quickly met up with Ye Yanshuang, and when she heard Yu Qianxia had come to team up, Ye Yanshuang was over the moon. She had always wanted to do a task with Yu Qianxia, but never had the chance—now, this tiny wish had unexpectedly come true out of nowhere.

Ye Yanshuang was super excited and happy, looping her arm through Yu Qianxia's, ready to take her shopping at the mall downtown.

Once they were in the car Ye Yanshuang had called, Yu Qianxia said,
[Yeah, we've known each other since we were kids, but we're not close. Because of Assistant Shan, at most, we're just regular friends.]

The system sounded a little surprised:
[Not close? Didn't you play together when you were little?]

Yu Qianxia's expression stayed calm:
[Not really. He... was kind of loud.]

Shan Xingyou was way too hyper. Whenever he was around, he talked non-stop.

She didn't like overly noisy friends, so she rarely hung out with him.

She preferred the kind of friends who could sit quietly beside her and still understand what she wanted without needing a bunch of words.

Her gaze passed through the car window and suddenly landed somewhere outside. A man had his head slightly lowered, his bangs fluttered lightly in the breeze, and his side profile was sharp and defined.

"President Yu, let me join you? Two people wandering around are better than one person running around like a headless chicken, right?" Ji Hanming jogged up to Yu Muqiu and suggested.

Yu Muqiu gave a slight nod. "Sure. Thanks."

Ji Hanming had thought he'd be super cold and distant, but after actually talking to him, he realized Yu Muqiu wasn't as icy as he'd imagined. He had that calm, reserved vibe, but he was actually really polite and well-mannered.

Ji Hanming, who had been worried they wouldn't get along, felt relieved and relaxed. "President Yu, let's hit the city center too? I've got a good eye—I can help you pick clothes, trust me!"

Yu Muqiu responded with a soft "Mm" and said, "Alright."

Then he turned and walked toward the hotel parking lot. "My car's parked over there. Let's drive."

Ji Hanming's eyes lit up. "President Yu, you brought a car?"

"You're not calling me President Yu during this show. Just call me by name," Yu Muqiu said calmly.

Ji Hanming grinned from ear to ear. "Yeah, I think calling you President Yu sounds way too formal. How about I call you Brother Yu instead?"

He felt like this team-up was totally worth it. Everyone else had to call and pay for their own rides, but his ride? Personally chauffeured by Yu Muqiu. This VIP treatment was just too damn cool!

He happily hopped into the car and eagerly pointed the way. "Brother Yu, let's go to Tianhe Plaza downtown. It's super popular, and there are a ton of trendy brand stores. Let's check it out."

Yu Muqiu fastened his seatbelt but didn't type "Tianhe Plaza" into the GPS. He just started the car, and they sped off quickly.

Ji Hanming figured maybe he had another place in mind, so he didn't ask questions and just sat back and relaxed.

But after a while, he started noticing something weird—Yu Muqiu's driving wasn't steady. Sometimes he sped up, sometimes he slowed down. It was like he was intentionally tailing the taxi in front of them.

They kept following it the whole way.

When the taxi finally stopped at its destination, Yu Muqiu also pulled over—not too far, not too close.

Then Ji Hanming saw Yu Qianxia and Ye Yanshuang getting out of that cab.

Ji Hanming gave a knowing little nod. Smart move—no need for GPS when you can just follow Yu Qianxia's ride, right?

The group arrived at Tianhe Plaza. Ji Hanming thought Yu Muqiu would go over and walk with them, but instead, he just kept a steady pace a few steps behind the two girls.

Ji Hanming was about to say something but held back.

Right then, Yu Muqiu suddenly stopped walking, his brows slightly furrowed.

Ji Hanming immediately turned to look.

Shan Xingyou had appeared next to Yu Qianxia, holding a cup of milk tea and trying hard to please her. "Xiaxia, you must be thirsty, right? I bought your favorite taro milk tea."

Ji Hanming looked at Yu Muqiu, then glanced at Shan Xingyou nearby. All at once, something clicked in his brain.

He quickly switched off his earpiece and scooted over to Yu Muqiu. "Brother Yu, do you like Sister Yu?"

Yu Muqiu froze.

Ji Hanming chuckled. "Don't even try to deny it. I totally saw through you!"

Yu Muqiu pressed his lips together and didn't say anything, but he didn't deny it either.
