Chapter 183: The New Year.
The day before New Year’s Day, Shen Zhiyi finished recording the evening show and came out late at night. Although it was snowing and the weather was cold, there were still many people out celebrating New Year’s Eve, waiting for the midnight chimes to ring.
She stood by the roadside waiting for her ride, scarf and hat in place, making her unrecognizable even to fans.
A moment later, a McLaren approached her with Pei Yu sitting in the driver’s seat. Seeing her standing outside in the cold, he frowned.
She opened the door and got in, a bit surprised, "Why are you driving?"
"Secretary Qin has a blind date," Pei Yu casually replied, turning up the temperature in the car and reaching out to touch her face. His hand was warm, and only then did his eyebrows relax, "I gave him the day off."
Shen Zhiyi smiled, "Then he definitely deserves the day off."
Not only Secretary Qin was off, but Xiaodong and the housekeeper had taken a few days off too. As a result, the two of them had to settle their dinner at an outside restaurant.
Since it was New Year’s Eve, restaurant seats were in high demand. Shen Zhiyi noticed that almost every restaurant on the street had a queue and was glad that she had booked a table weeks in advance.
She hadn’t told Pei Yu in advance and when they arrived, he realized she had chosen a hot pot restaurant. He turned to look at her, "Aren’t you afraid of being recognized?"
"I reserved a private room," Shen Zhiyi replied with due diligence, "I’m wearing a scarf and hat. They won’t recognize me unless I take them off."
Pei Yu raised an eyebrow, neither endorsing nor dismissing her words, and followed her into the restaurant.
