Huayu: Traffic is king

Chapter 89 I'm Fishing for You

"Strange, this is the right place, right?"

Liu Haoyue pulled the shared bicycle over to the side of the road, picked up his phone and stared at the screen.

On Xiaohuangyu, her chat history with the single owner stopped 25 minutes ago.

[Boss, I'm here.]
[Boss, where are you?]
The message was sent, but fell on deaf ears.

She lowered her head slightly to read the reply, biting her lower lip. Her fingers were intertwined in front of her as she kept typing.

I delivered an order late at night, but when I arrived I didn't see the owner.

To make matters worse, it was raining at that time.

A light rain continued to fall as she squatted beside the green belt. Her head lowered, her long hair covering her face. In her left hand, she held two Polaroid cameras in protective cases, and in her right, she held a phone, waiting for buyers to come online.

He is 165cm tall, but he looks a little small squatting there. From a distance, he looks a little pitiful.

Especially the sound of dripping rain around her made her feel even more lonely.

When Gu Jingyi went out, he wore a baseball cap and a mask for disguise. Although he didn't bring an umbrella, he did have a hooded sweatshirt. Once he put on the hood of the sweatshirt, he had double protection and didn't care about the drizzle.

He squatted next to the green belt and spotted Liu Haoyue's figure from about ten meters away.

Liu Haoyu was a little anxious, so she clicked on Little Yellow Croaker and a voice message popped up.

"toot toot"

The bell rang instantly, and Gu Jingyi also stood up and walked over.

Liu Haoyu was not immersed in his own world, but would look up from time to time. When the bell rang, he looked up and saw Gu Jingyi coming out of the green belt.

Although Gu Jingyi was heavily disguised, the paparazzi's innate intuition still allowed her to recognize Gu Jingyi.

After recognizing Gu Jingyi, Liu Haoyi's first reaction was to run. However, Gu Jingyi stepped in front of the shared bicycle with his long legs and held the handlebars with one hand, blocking his way.

Gu Jingyi picked up the phone and shook it.

It was her homepage, and on the screen was the transaction record of her Xianyu account: "From the time I signed in person backstage at 'Idol Producer' until tonight, you've sold a total of 43 copies by reselling my Polaroids. You've made 52 yuan. Cuncun, why don't you treasure these precious moments recorded on the Polaroid?"

"Oh, Teacher Gu, look at what you said..."

She took a half step back, a classic fake smile on her face: "I'm helping you expand your popularity. Look at those fans who draw pictures, compose and light and shadow. Who is as professional as me? I carefully edit the pictures before printing them~"

Gu Jingyi sneered when he heard this, and suddenly bent down and moved closer.

The scent of Hermès Terre des Anglais perfume wafted in her face, and Liu Haoyu's back slammed against the bicycle frame. She hissed in pain, and then Gu Jingyi said with interest, "Now that you mention it, I should thank you. Do you need me to help you recall what you said yesterday?"

Liu Haoyu was a little panicked. She looked around and said, "Oh, I don't remember."

"Really? Then let me help you recall. You said before that 'cuncun' is the same as 'cuncun' in memory card, and Polaroid is for storing beautiful moments. So, is that how you save all your memories? Should I call you the Miss Buffett of the proxy photography world?"

Gu Jingyi lowered his eyebrows and looked at Liu Haoyu with burning eyes.

[Run]
The thought quickly crossed her mind, and her body moved before her brain could react. However, Gu Jingyi grabbed her wrist and pinned her down onto the bicycle seat. The canvas bag fell to the ground, and the Polaroid camera she had been holding tightly inside scattered across the floor.

Gu Jingyi pressed her struggling calf with his knee, picked up a Polaroid photo in a protective card, and sneered: "'Memory card storage'? Explain? Why did the To sign I gave you appear on Xianyu?"

"Teacher Gu, listen to my excuses... No, explain!"

Liu Haoyi immediately gave in under the overwhelming pressure. "This is all your fault. The plaid suit you wore on debut night was so handsome. I can't be so selfish. This great face must be admired by the whole world!"

In the face of crisis, she improvised and delivered a loud rainbow fart right to Gu Jingyi's ear.

But unfortunately, Gu Jingyi didn't fall into the trap.

They were so close, damp steam rising between them. Liu Haoyu smelled the cedar scent emanating from his collar, and suddenly remembered the Weibo comment section: "Gu Jingyi's collarbone could hold a moon." As if possessed, she turned her head away, blushing slightly.

"Are you really not afraid of me?" Gu Jingyi suddenly felt helpless when he saw her slightly red cheeks.

At this time, this little girl is still attracted by men. Should I say she is stupid or just insensitive?

"Teacher Gu, you are definitely not here to arrest me."

Liu Haoyu watched for a while, not noticing anyone moving behind Gu Jingyi. Suddenly, she became serious and began to analyze the situation.

"Yeah, not bad, smart."

Gu Jingyi looked at the rain which was getting heavier and heavier, soaking most of Liu Haoyue's shoulders.

He suddenly felt that the outdoors was not a suitable place for conversation, so he simply rode a shared bicycle and took Liu Haoyue to his other residence.

After watching her put the shared bike back in place, he accompanied her in the elevator upstairs.

Gu Jingyi had already received the remuneration for several advertisements, so he bought this river view house.

However, he had never brought a girl in before, but he didn't expect that this "Ms. Buffett" would make him make an exception.

Open the 270-degree panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and you will see the river opposite.

The night was deep, and the cool moonlight was reflected in the river. The river flowed slowly, swallowing the full moon.

Liu Haoyu was so absorbed in watching that he forgot where he was.

She looked at the river view intently, her thoughts entangled.

Gu Jingyi glanced at her and began to tease, "This house isn't expensive, probably only a few hundred. If Miss Buffett wants to buy it, just get a few more people to sign the Polaroid. Come on, I'm rooting for you."

"Ah! What are you talking about?"

Liu Haoyu blushed when Gu Jingyi teased her. She herself had never expected to do long-term business.

This kind of "To Signature" can only earn you short-term income once at most. If you do it again, you will really become an illegitimate child.

Gu Jingyi simply threw a clothes basket over to her and motioned for her to take a shower.

When she came back, the rain was getting heavier. Her clothes were soaked by the rain and stuck to her body, revealing a thin layer of flesh-colored water, showing off her body lines.

Especially when clothes are soaked by rain and stick to the body, the damp feeling is very unbearable.

Gu Jingyi spoke directly, "Go take a shower first, and I'll talk to you about business later. I only asked the aunt to clean here, and I haven't prepared any girls' pajamas. You can make do with this new set for now."

He directly handed over a set of pajamas, which were brand new and had not been unpacked.

The sudden tenderness made Liu Haoyue feel a little at a loss.

She wanted to refuse stubbornly, but the sticky feeling on her body was very uncomfortable.

Gu Jingyi walked away and left the right to choose to her.

[Really? Why are you so gentle?]
Liu Haoyu bit his lip, unable to stop his heart from beating faster.

Even though I know this is just Gu Jingyi's inherent self-restraint, my heart still beats faster because of his gentleness.

Her cheeks felt a little hot, and she went to the bathroom carrying the brand new pajamas that had not been unlabeled.

The door was closed with a click, and soon the sound of a shower was heard.

Gu Jingyi dialed the number and began to urge: "Mr. Cheng, are you almost there?" This was Cheng He, the director of the legal department of Huace. Gu Jingyi told him the general situation as soon as he left the dormitory.

50 Polaroids, calculated at 8000 each. Conservatively estimated, her profit reached more than 40, which is enough to send in.

Of course, Gu Jingyi is not that boring, he just thinks there are no secrets in the fan circle.

Liu Haowei suddenly started selling his Polaroid photos on Xianyu, with evidence to prove their authenticity. He was sure to become famous among the "Jing Fei" group, but some of his "rich woman fans" didn't think it was a big deal. As long as the items were genuine, they considered the small amount of money just "a meal."

However, there are also some "photographers" and even "fangirls" who label Liu Haoyu as a "private child".

His sting operation was intended to persuade people, but the "photographers" and "fangirls" would not be so merciful.

Maybe she just wanted to gain Liu Haoyue's trust, and then she would start to attack her as soon as she received the goods.

They don't necessarily truly dislike Liu Haoyu, like Tara's "troll" incident. It's simply that Liu Haoyu, a newcomer, is too unruly, getting so many "exclusive resources" right out of the gate. He's not a true "fangirl," and for fandoms, where fandom is paramount, being labeled a "stalker" would mean cutting off Liu Haoyu's future financial resources.

The cake is so small, and Liu Haoyu has broken the rules of the industry. Sorry, the "fangirls" have to take action too.

It doesn’t matter that Liu Haoyu is just an amateur. At worst, he will just stop reselling “autographed Polaroids” in the future.

But once she makes her debut, all the traces she left on the Internet will be "excavated" bit by bit by her fans.

Once the label of "private life" is given, the popularity among the public will collapse.

This amount is too large and it is too easy to go bankrupt.

After waiting for a while, the door handle was gently turned.

Liu Haoyue walked out of the bathroom wearing Gu Jingyi's pajamas.

The silk fabric slides across the skin with a soft touch.

The sleeves of her men's pajamas were a bit too long, forcing her to roll them up, revealing her slender wrists and the beautiful, elegant lines of her forearms. The hem of her pajamas fell to mid-thigh, vaguely outlining her long, slender legs as she moved.

At this moment, Liu Haoyu was wiping the water stains on his head with a towel. He had never imagined that wearing this outfit would be such a temptation for men.

Later generations came up with a term called "boyfriend style" to describe Liu Haoyu's outfit. She tilted her head and wiped the moisture from her hair with a bath towel.

He walked out wearing wet slippers.

There were water stains on the mahogany floor, winding along the grain of the floor.

Gu Jingyi's forehead twitched. This was really unbearable for someone with a bit of mysophobia.

"Gu Jingyi, I'm hungry. Do you have anything to eat?"

Liu Haoyu took the initiative and asked.

"There are ingredients in the refrigerator. Auntie cleans it out every week. Just cook whatever you want."

Gu Jingyi felt a little helpless. This girl really treated him as a guest.

"No, do you have instant noodles here?"

Liu Haoyu spoke very frankly, with his eyebrows curved and his eyes smiling like a fool.

"Yes, it's on the coffee table, go make it yourself."

"What? You're eating instant noodles, a national delicacy, by soaking them? That's too disrespectful to instant noodles. Gu Jingyi, did you hear any crying?"

Liu Haoyu suddenly widened his eyes and pointed at Gu Jingyi, as if he had really made some mistake and was not worthy of forgiveness.

"what?"

"The instant noodles are crying. They are all saying that you don't know how to appreciate delicious food. Woo woo woo."

Liu Haoyu imitated it in a very childish way, looking weird and quirky.

Gu Jingyi couldn't help laughing. This was probably one of the reasons why he was unwilling to kill him.

Liu Haoyu is only one year older than his sister, and in his eyes, she is just a little kid.

He didn't need to send her to Orange and ruin her future acting career just for some profit.

Among the future young actresses, only my junior sisters Yu Shuxin and Cun Zi have acting skills.

Among a bunch of "assembly line 95 flowers" with pouting and glaring acting skills, the acting skills of these two sisters are completely ahead of their peers.

Talent should be placed where it should be placed. What does this small amount of money mean compared to the salary you can earn in the entertainment industry after your debut?

Cunzi also entered the kitchen at this time. He deftly placed a small soup pot on the induction cooker. He flipped it on, cut two slices of ham and added two eggs. He then sprinkled them with black sesame seeds, covered the pot, and simmered for five minutes.

Although the taste of instant noodles is just so-so, the aroma is still very overbearing. Gu Jingyi smelled it and suddenly felt a little hungry.

"Grumpy"

He ate very little at the celebration banquet and spent most of his time chatting and laughing with investors and advertisers.

After a celebration banquet, he had many more endorsements, including "Dove", "Beat Headphones China Spokesperson", "Q Music Promoter" and so on.

Most of the time they were holding up their glasses and toasting each other.

He really hadn't eaten much and was starting to feel hungry.

"Gu Jingyi, do you want to eat some too?"

Liu Haoyu, wearing gloves, also brought out the instant noodles.

The moment the lid was opened, two soft-boiled eggs were found next to the instant noodles. A layer of ham was spread over the noodles, and a circle of chopped green onions was added to make them look very appetizing.

Gu Jingyi quickly took back his refusal and started to divide the food with chopsticks.

"How about it?"

Liu Haoyu looked at Gu Jingyi expectantly, as if he wanted to get praise from him.

“Yes, it tastes good.”

Gu Jingyi gave a compliment, and the invisible tail behind Liu Haoyue started wagging.

"Hehe, I knew it~"

"Instant noodles must be cooked for three minutes before being removed from the pot. If they are cooked for more than three minutes, they will become mushy. If they are soaked, they will easily clump due to uneven heating..."

She rambled on and on about her experience, and the small light brown mole on the wing of her nose was like a dancing flame, jumping in front of Gu Jingyi's eyes.

"Alright, eat quickly. If you don't eat it now, the noodles will become mushy. Take your time."

"it is good!"

Not long after we finished eating, the doorbell rang.

"Who is it?" Liu Haoyu muttered, not expecting that the person who would take her away would come.
