nAt this moment, Gu Ren almost couldn’t help but want to raise his hand and touch Ye Zhi’s face. He wanted to ask her something.

nDid I take too long?

nThe winter wind was a bit chilly. Ye Zhi had been standing there waiting for him. Her hands must have been cold.

nHowever, Gu Ren did not move, let alone stretch out his hand.

nGu Ren stood there in silence. His slender figure resembled a tall tree, strong and reliable.

nHe didn’t follow his heart, not only because many people were watching them now, but also because of his attitude towards Ye Zhi.

nHe cherished her so much, he didn’t want to lose this relationship.

nIn the end, the complicated and disturbing emotions only turned into a sentence with an unknown meaning.

n“I finally found you.”

nGu Ren was suppressing his urge, so his voice was a little hoarse.

nWhen Ye Zhi heard his voice, her heart shook. When they were practising at home, Gu Ren said the same thing.

nThe same sentence in different situations gave it a completely different feeling. In the darkness, emotions seemed to magnify.

nBut Ye Zhi couldn’t tell whether the darkness magnified her emotions, or her heart was yearning for this sentence.

nAt this time, a mechanical voice rang from the top: “Congratulations to Gu Ren and Ye Zhi for completing the task. They found each other blindfolded in the maze…”

nWith their efforts, they conquered the most difficult task thus far.

nBoth Gu Ren and Ye Zhi took off their blindfolds. Just as Ye Zhi opened her eyes, the light poured in. She saw Gu Ren. He was standing right in front of her.

nAt the moment the light poured in, Gu Ren also raised his head and looked at Ye Zhi.

nYe Zhi’s face was hidden in the light and shadow, looking hazy. Her skin seemed to be soaked in moonlight, white and clear.

nGu Ren’s eyes couldn’t separate from Ye Zhi for even a moment.

nGu Ren hadn’t spoken. His gaze painted Ye Zhi’s face bit by bit, slowly and seriously.

nHis gaze seemed to even reach the bottom of Ye Zhi’s heart.

nLooking at Ye Zhi again, Gu Ren once again felt as if he had known her for a very long time. Gu Ren had hidden doubts in his heart for a long time.

nThe perplexity that haunted Gu Ren for a long time finally converged into one sentence.

nWhy do I find Ye Zhi so familiar?

nAs Gu Ren had these thoughts, his eyes inevitably stayed on Ye Zhi’s face for a while.

nYe Zhi noticed Gu Ren’s strangeness. She thought that Gu Ren had forgotten that they were being recorded and would say something that shouldn’t be said, so she immediately motioned to him.

nYe Zhi pretended to cough a few times. It was early winter and the air was slightly cold so her sudden cough would not arouse suspicion.

nAs soon as Gu Ren heard Ye Zhi’s cough, he immediately recovered. He thought that Ye Zhi really had a cold and his brows knitted together.

nThe next second, Gu Ren saw Ye Zhi’s eye turn to the camera and he understood everything.

nGu Ren smiled calmly and pointed to the exit behind Ye Zhi: “Let’s go.”

nThe passage of the maze was quite narrow. It would be very difficult for two people to walk side by side. Ye Zhi took a step back and let Gu Ren go first.

nGu Ren was in front and Ye Zhi was not far behind him.

nBecause Ye Zhi and Gu Ren had drawn most of the maze’s map before and now the missing pieces had also been filled in, it was quite easy for them to get out.
