nHe tensed a little and he cursed in his mind.

nDarn it, how do you look so sexy drenched from the rain, don’t most women just look haggard?

nOriginally he thought that she’d be in his arms by now.

nBut she didn’t like him that way.

nThat was such an infuriating thought, and he had to force himself not to think about it.

nBy the time they reached the school gates, the rain had gotten lighter, but the entrance was still deserted and empty.

nLuosang was going to make a dash for it, but Nian Junting grabbed her by her arm, “Take the umbrella.”

nShe was caught off guard and blushed a little at the physical contact, “I haven’t even gotten the chance to return your umbrella from the previous time, now I’m taking another one…”

nNot to mention, his umbrellas were expensive so she felt particularly bad especially after what happened earlier on.

n“Take it please, it makes me angry just looking at it,” Nian Junting expressionlessly threw it at her.

n“It’s ok, the rain has gotten a lot lighter, I can make it,” Luosang felt uneasy and the atmosphere was awkward. She left the umbrella on the car seat as she quickly sprinted into the mist.

nNian Junting watched her disappear into the night before he slammed down on the steering wheel.

nIf there were any doubts from before, he was now eight percent sure that this woman didn’t like him that way. She didn’t even want to take the umbrella, drawing clear distinctions between them.

nIt was the first time in his life he was stuck in a ditch because of relationship problems.

nThis woman had no taste, no taste at all.

nLuosang ran for five minutes before she finally slowed down, sure that she was a good distance away from the gate.

nBy now, the rain had slowed into a light drizzle. Raindrops were rolling down her face.

nShe recalled how Nian Junting looked before she left him, now that she had the mind space to think, his dark pupils were filled with surprise, fury, and hurt…

nHe was gentlemanly to the end, she had to admit, insisting that she take the umbrella.

n“Ay…” she sighed as she brought her fingers to her lips. He had kissed her too hard, it was still sore and she wondered if he cut her lips.

nAhead, an upright figure stood beneath the street lamp with an umbrella in hand, he looked bright and handsome even under the heavy fog, “It’s so late, where did you go?”

nShe collected herself promptly. There was a time when she was studying in An City where he would also wait out like this for her whenever she got back late from studying at the library.

nThe two of them walked past one light and another, hand in hand, desperate for time to freeze then and there. They didn’t want to leave each other, and they didn’t want to go home.

n“Who were you out with?” Yi Jingxi approached her with the umbrella, his pants were damp from the rain.

nShe wondered how long he had been waiting.

nShe was suddenly jolted awake. This was Xia City. He was no longer her fiancé, he was Zhong Yi’s boyfriend.

nLuosang stepped away from him, not wanting to waste another minute with him, “I don’t think I need to account for who I was with to you.”

n“Stop there,” Yi Jingxi grabbed her wrist firmly. At close proximity, he could tell how red her lips were, they look freshly kissed.

nHe chest felt tight and his stomach knotted as he winced from the thought, “Who kissed you?”

nHis handsome features were clouded with jealousy.
