Compared to Lin Jiage, Shi Yao was much shorter. When she was holding the umbrella for him, she instinctively tilted her head upwards. However, before she could see whether the umbrella had been placed on him or not, her gaze first met with his slightly lowered gaze.
Just like that, their gazes met.
In that instant, Shi Yao didn’t know what had happened to her, but her heart suddenly jolted violently twice.
The surroundings were bustling with noise and excitement.
However, it was as if someone had cast a spell on Shi Yao’s ears, and she suddenly fell silent.
Lin Jiage didn’t expect that the person who had come would be her. A hint of surprise flashed across his beautiful eyes, and soon after, a faint smile and warmth surfaced on his face, “Did my sister send you here?”
His voice was as pleasant as ever, pulling the stunned Shi Yao back to her senses.
She nodded furiously and hurriedly replied, “That’s right. Sister Jiayi posted it on her moments page, and I saw it. It was only then that I found out about your situation, so I came over to pick you up…”
Shi Yao hurriedly shut her mouth.
She must have been influenced by sister Jiayi to think of picking Lin jiage up so frequently..
With this thought in mind, Shi Yao hurriedly said,”… I’m here to look for you.”
She wasn’t sure if Lin Jiage had heard the word ‘pick’from her, but from the start to the end, there wasn’t much of a reaction on his face. All he did was maintain the same posture as before, staring intently into her eyes, he replied with a light “OH.”.
Even though it was just a single word, the slightly raised tone of his voice caused Shi Yao’s heart to pound furiously.
This is really strange. Why does my appearance seem even more stunning after meeting with him?
Was it due to the immunity that he had developed after meeting with her frequently in the past, but now that they hadn’t met for two months, his immunity had disappeared?
In order to prevent herself from regaining her composure like when she first met him, Shi Yao tried her best to remain calm as she asked, “That… It’s been raining for so long, why didn’t you find a place to hide?”
“Afraid…”Lin jiage only managed to say one word before he stopped.
Shi Yao replied, “Hm?”.
Only then did Lin Jiage continue moving his lips, “I don’t have any money.”
F * ck… What a powerful reason. The powerful Shi Yao felt that he had a good reason, but she was actually unable to refute it..
Shi Yao was left speechless by Lin Jiage’s words for a few seconds before saying, “Then, let’s go.”
Lin jiage nodded. “Alright.”
Shi Yao turned around and faced the direction of the hotel.
She was short while he was tall, so it was a little difficult for her to hold the umbrella.
Lin jiage took a glance at her arm, which was trying its best to reach up, and a hint of a smile crept into his eyes that even he himself didn’t notice. However, after a brief moment of admiration, he reached his hand toward the handle of the umbrella.
His fingertip touched her hand.
Shi Yao’s entire body trembled slightly as she abruptly raised her head to look at Lin Jiage.
Lin jiage raised his head and glanced at the edge of the umbrella, which was dripping with water droplets, before saying, “Let me do it.”
Even though his words were very simple, Shi Yao knew that he was trying to open the umbrella.
She replied with an “Oh”before hurriedly releasing the handle of the umbrella.
Lin jiage lifted the umbrella and tilted it slightly in Shi Yao’s direction before following her footsteps.
His legs were long, and his steps were large. As such, the way he walked beside her made it seem as if he was taking a stroll.
Along the way, they didn’t talk much.
When he was about to reach the entrance of the hotel, he tilted his head slightly to take a look at the top of her head.
