NovelEnglishYe Zhi sat up in a daze. Amidst the shadow, she saw Gu Ren’s lips shaping into a smile. In an instant, she too was infected by Gu Ren’s joy.
She was uncertain if it was because she had stayed under the blanket for too long, but Ye Zhi suddenly felt like it was a little difficult to breathe.
Ye Zhi looked away from him in a panic, “I’ll go sit in the front now.”
Ye Zhi immediately opened the backseat car door, hopped out the car, then opened the front passenger door. However, in the next second she realized she had made a mistake. Because the distance between her and Gu Ren was even shorter now.
Ye Zhi felt relieved that Gu Ren had the lights turned off in the car, although she was unsure why she felt that way. On the way home, she looked sideways out of the window and did not initiate any conversations with Gu Ren.

Therefore, they could never be the Perfect Couple.
…
The morning after the announcement.
Gu Ren was lazily leaning against the door of Ye Zhi’s room. He looked down at the ground and paused for a moment.
Gu Ren raised his hand and knocked on Ye Zhi’s door lightly. He asked in a casual voice: “Ye Zhi, are you awake?”
There was no sound of movement inside.
So Gu Ren knocked on the door again and asked, “Ye Zhi, are you awake?”
Ye Zhi was still asleep until she vaguely heard a knock on her door. She opened her eyes and focused on the sound coming from outside her door.
Still in a daze, Ye Zhi asked, “Who is it?”
From outside came a familiar sounding voice, “It’s me.”
When Ye Zhi recognized Gu Ren’s voice, she instantly sobered up and was wide awake. She asked, “What’s the matter?”

Ye Zhi took a glance at herself. She was still in her pajamas and had messy hair. She sat up and exclaimed in a spirited voice, “Wait, I need to tidy up!”
Ye Zhi quickly straightened out her pajamas, her hair and said, “You can come in now.”
The door opened. Gu Ren walked in and looked over to the bed.
Ye Zhi was sitting there with her hair loosely tied up. Her cascading black hair was worn like a mantle that accentuated her fairness.
Gu Ren averted his gaze while retaining a cool expression. He sat down and looked at Ye Zhi, “From today onwards, you need to undergo training in the gym.”
There was already a gym in the house. It was very convenient if anyone wanted to exercise.
Ye Zhi was surprised, “Why do I have to start training?”
Gu Ren: “There are a lot of challenges in the Perfect Couple variety show. Most of them are performed outdoors, which will require a lot of physical endurance.”
Gu Ren looked at Ye Zhi’s thin body, “If your fitness level is lacking, you will suffer a lot in this show.”
Ye Zhi understood what Gu Ren meant. Since she was participating in the show, she wanted to perform well and do her best to reach the finals.
