Chapter 45: The Nineteenth Day of Their Relationship. Seeing Quan Zhilong go wash up...

After seeing Quan Zhilong wash up, Wu Yunxi sorted out her clothes and went through a small door in the room to the closet, where she began to choose clothes for going out.

She usually dressed very simply at home, not really dressing up, just staying warm. But Wu Yunxi couldn't accept going out in this way. Well, she might as well just assume that because of the paparazzi these days, she was afraid of being photographed in an unflattering way, or of breaking up news.

Wu Yunxi's concerns weren't unfounded, so after Quan Zhilong had finished getting ready, he also went to the closet to pick out clothes.

They both wore bright colors today. Wu Yunxi was a fan of bright colors, or perhaps she was very aware that she didn't look good in dark clothes, so when she bought clothes, she tended to choose bright colors. It's not that she didn't have dark colors, but they were very rare. Even in winter, bright colors and light colors tended to get dirty easily, so she still preferred them.

Kwon Ji-yong's outfit was based on Wu Yunxi's. Of course, after choosing and changing, he also accessorized with a slew of jewelry, creating a distinctly Kwon Ji-yong style.

"It's truly amazing! They're similar clothes, but when Oppa wears them, they look so GD-esque."

This wasn't the first time Wu Yunxi had exclaimed this, and even after seeing it many times, it still felt magical. It was like you could tell who someone was wearing the first time they saw them.

"Fashion perfection really comes down to the face!"

Wu Yunxi had seen people imitating Kwon Ji-yong's style before, but none of them could capture his unique style. This reminded Wu Yunxi of something someone had said.

Bringing it up now made Kwon Ji-yong blush instantly, from his ears to his face. He feigned composure and didn't respond.

Seeing this scene, how could Wu Yunxi not see the weakness behind someone's outward appearance? She simply chose not to expose the truth.

"Oppa, shall we go?"

Afraid that Kwon Ji-yong would stand there feeling awkward, Wu Yunxi skipped the topic and hurried them outside.

The manager was already waiting for Gwon Ji-yong in the car, and wasn't particularly surprised to see the two people get out. It was a completely natural choice for Gwon Ji-yong. Besides, as long as it didn't affect his work, the company wouldn't bother.

"So, shall we go?"

"Let's go,"

the two exchanged a few words, and the car slowly pulled out of the underground garage and headed towards the office.

The journey took only about ten minutes, and the car didn't stop at the entrance, but drove straight inside. Fans familiar with Gwon Ji-yong's manager knew it was Gwon Ji-yong's arrival, and even though they didn't see him, they were still excited.

Sharp-eyed fans also noticed that there wasn't just one person in the back seat, but two. This led to a flurry of speculation, with many speculating that it was Wu Yunxi. Most of these people were fans who had transitioned from being a couple to a couple. What could be more exciting than a real couple?

Such speculation even spread online, but neither Gwon Ji-yong nor Wu Yunxi responded. They let their speculation run wild, but the paparazzi who were able to capture this did not miss this hot spot. Unfortunately, they were discovered by Quan Ji-yong while filming. Although he did not stop anything, all the photos of Wu Yunxi that were too obvious were bought by Quan Ji-yong.

Although the popularity did not catch up, the money was already in hand. The paparazzi still cooperated and gave the photos to Quan Ji-yong and then deleted the negatives.

After all, this kind of income belongs to individuals. Compared with the salary paid by the company, such extra income is of course more attractive.

However, when Wu Yunxi learned about this, she still felt a little sorry when she heard Quan Ji-yong say how much money was spent, but she still liked Quan Ji-yong's thoughtfulness.

The two went to the restaurant hand in hand. It was not a very private restaurant, but because the food was really delicious, there were quite a few people. Fortunately, Quan Ji-yong had made an appointment before coming, otherwise he would not be able to squeeze in for dinner.

Although the paparazzi were gone, passersby still recognized Gwon Ji-yong and took photos. Gwon Ji-yong could only ask them not to upload the photos online until they left. After all, such behavior couldn't be completely stopped. Gwon Ji-yong and Wu Yunxi were both mentally prepared.

Most people cooperated and wouldn't post anything online. Of course, there were also those who wanted to capitalize on the current hype to achieve their own goals. Therefore, this situation was never going to achieve the desired outcome.

Fortunately, the restaurant manager stepped out and put a stop to the behavior, allowing Wu Yunxi and Gwon Ji-yong to a less-visible corner to start eating.

"Sorry, I hope I didn't disturb you."

The restaurant manager had known Gwon Ji-yong would be dining, as reservations were visible to customers. However, he hadn't expected him to arrive during peak hours. Furthermore, he had been delayed by some matters and hadn't been able to address the situation quickly enough, fearing that it would upset the customers

.

Quan Ji-yong knew the restaurant couldn't be blamed entirely for this. After all, it was his decision, and he hadn't expected so many people to come. So, he smiled and waved his hand, saying it wasn't a big deal, but he needed a less crowded corner.

The manager led them to a less crowded corner, where he stood by and helped take their orders before leaving.

Wu Yunxi, who had been silent the entire time, relaxed a bit after the manager left.

She didn't really know the manager, and since Quan Ji-yong had already made his presence known, she remained silent.

"I didn't expect so many people. Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Quan Ji-yong was quite used to it. Fewer people were paying attention to him now, and many of his fans had married and had children. But after all, he'd been around back then, so he was used to it. Although his brow furrowed as he spoke about it, he did frown.

"Even though you say you're used to it, you're not happy about it, right?"

Wu Yunxi spoke quietly. They were in a corner, and while people would occasionally glance their way, it was still much better than before.

"It's so obvious, Yunxi, you better not bring it up."

Quan Ji-yong didn't bother trying to hide anything from Wu Yunxi and simply admitted it.

"Oppa, just be yourself. Although I don't particularly like that look, I still hope you enjoy your dinner."

Wu Yunxi couldn't offer any good advice for a situation Quan Ji-yong couldn't solve, let alone offer any good advice. But wanting Quan Ji-yong to be happy was something Wu Yunxi had always wanted.

"Yes, I feel really relaxed and happy around you,"

Quan Ji-yong assured Wu Yunxi, earning a broad smile from his girlfriend.

Although the restaurant was crowded, the food wasn't slow to arrive. After a short chat, the dishes were all served. Quan Ji-yong picked up his chopsticks and helped Wu Yunxi with a piece of pork chop. He then placed a shrimp in his own bowl, peeling it before returning it to Wu Yunxi's bowl.

"Eat it! I thought it was delicious the last time I came here with Joo-hyuk, so I've been wanting to bring you over, but various things kept getting in the way."

Wu Yunxi first shoved some spareribs into her mouth. They were so tender they fell off the bone easily when she ate them. They were truly delicious. She then took a bite of the shrimp that Quan Ji-yong had peeled and nodded quickly.

"Good food is never too late. Oppa, this is really delicious. You should eat quickly too,"

Wu Yunxi said, helping Quan Ji-yong with his favorite dishes before focusing on her own meal.

Wu Yunxi's appearance while she ate truly whetted his appetite, so whenever Quan Ji-yong and Wu Yunxi ate together, he'd always unknowingly eat too much.

At the end of his meal, he rubbed his stomach, a guilty conscience rising.

He had an MV shoot tomorrow, and he'd eaten so much tonight... That's right, an MV shoot tomorrow!

Thinking about tomorrow's work, Quan Ji-yong felt guilty for eating too much tonight. Thinking about work again, he realized he hadn't mentioned this to Wu Yunxi.

However, this wasn't a good time to talk about work, so they held back. After paying, they left the restaurant and headed for the car. Kwon Ji-yong first opened the passenger door for Wu Yunxi before moving to the driver's seat, opening it and getting in.

"Shall we go home?"

It wasn't too late after dinner, but tomorrow's work started early, so now was the perfect time to go home.

"Okay."

The best thing after dinner was to just sit quietly at home and completely unwind.

"By the way, Yunxi, I forgot to tell you. The music video shoot is set for tomorrow."

Kwon Ji-yong looked a little guilty when he talked about it, especially when he thought about the scenes in the music video. It wasn't anything special, but he did feel a little guilty when he was with Wu Yunxi.

"Oppa, you're feeling guilty."

Wu Yunxi could clearly sense what Kwon Ji-yong was feeling. He had already told her about the shoot beforehand, and roughly what it would entail, so she knew the reason. However, Quan Zhilong had asked me before if I wanted to participate in the filming, but I refused. So I won't have any conflicts with Quan Zhilong because of this matter, but I still feel a little jealous.

"It's great that Oppa can film with so many beautiful ladies tomorrow."
