Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

The sound of rain was too loud.

Chen Jianji didn't hear clearly.

"What are you muttering about?"

Lin Qingxue buried her face in her hands.

"It's nothing."

Chen Jianji scoffed coldly.

"How did you manage to hold that umbrella? I can't even see the road from this far forward."

Lin Qingxue looked up and glanced at it, then silently moved back a little.

"Is this okay?"

"And then!"

"oh..."

Chen Jianji quickened his pace, but he still couldn't help but curse.

"I really admire you."

"Doesn't the hotel upstairs have a parking lot?"

"Why did you tell someone to stop at the foot of the mountain, and then go through the trouble of running downhill yourself?"

Lin Qingxue's voice was very low, but her lips were very close to Chen Jianji's.

"He can't drive it up there."

"fart!"

Chen Jianji said coldly.

"I overheard Xinyi talking to Liu Yun about how you two were planning to set up a stall selling trinkets, right? The goods you'd use for that stall, at most, would be a beat-up bread cart, right?"

"Don't all the driving schools park their seven-seater cars there too?"

"The rain wasn't heavy last night, but it started pouring this morning."

Lin Qingxue remained silent.

Chen Jianji glanced at her again.

She acquiesced.

They've implicitly admitted they're an idiot!

"I can't have come all this way for nothing; consider this a lesson for you."

Lin Qingxue paused slightly, looking somewhat puzzled.

"So what do you want?"

Chen Jianji's voice was calm, as if he were speaking in a businesslike manner.

"Once this is over, you'll have to pay me for the rescue. It'll be at least ten thousand yuan."

Lin Qingxue's expression froze for a moment.

Her lips twitched slightly.

I am usually calm and composed.

I'm always tormented by this person in front of me, feeling both angry and annoyed, yet helpless.

Lin Qingxue pressed her cheek against his shoulder again and uttered two words softly.

"I have no money."

Chen Jianji chuckled.

"Fifty thousand yuan, and it's only been a short time? Gone just like that?"

Lin Qingxue also seemed to hum in response.

"You seem quite concerned about where I spent my money?"

Chen Jianji paused slightly, but quickly resumed his stride.

"Who cares? It's none of my business."

"Then just leave it alone."

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became somewhat confrontational.

Chen Jianji remained expressionless, and his grip loosened slightly.

Lin Qingxue seemed to have anticipated this, and hugged him even tighter.

He didn't fall.

Chen Jianji was about to speak again.

Can be sudden.

A sudden wet sensation on my shoulders and neck.

Then came a sudden, sharp pain.

"hiss!"

Chen Jianji quickly turned his head to look over.

Lin Qingxue, with her hair half-wet, was seen biting down on the soft flesh of her shoulder as if venting her frustration.

"What the hell are you doing?!"

She didn't bite very hard, but when her lips left, a row of neat teeth marks were left on her shoulder.

"Are you a dog?! You bite when you can't win an argument?"

Chen Jianji was cursing and swearing.

"You get upset whenever your issues are mentioned, don't you?"

"Then you should protect it well. Let's see who comes looking for you next time you're trapped in this downpour!"

He continued talking as he walked forward.

The words Lin Qingxue said on the day I filled out my college application still kept replaying in my mind.

I won't give up everything for him.

This is indeed Lin Qingxue's style.

He wasn't her main focus.

He already knew that.

Thinking about this...

Chen Jianji, on the contrary, calmed down, and the irritation on his face disappeared.

He didn't say another word.

They just kept walking forward silently.

It's like passing by and saving a stranger.

Perhaps they sensed something was off about Chan Kin-kei.

Lin Qingxue looked up at the back of his face.

His expression was calm, showing no particular emotion.

Are you angry?

Lin Qingxue's eyes flickered, as if she knew what he had remembered, but she didn't say anything more.

The two remained silent.

The surrounding rain continued to fall to the ground like arrows.

It splashed up countless water droplets.

at this time.

Chen Jianji had slowly walked to a flat area.

Amidst the thick rain and fog, some vehicles could be vaguely seen parked here.

Not far away is that low-rise building that I remember.

Chen Jianji was about to step forward.

The slender wrist that held the umbrella handle rested against her shoulder.

The other hand, which was wrapped around her neck, was now empty.

Chen Jianji looked at her trembling hand holding the umbrella handle and said in a deep voice.

"Almost there, just hang in there a little longer."

"Wait, don't move."

Lin Qingxue spoke in a low voice.

Chen Jianji stood there with a frown, looking behind him.

And so I watched as Lin Qingxue pulled a crumpled piece of paper out of her pocket.

The outer layer of the paper ball was already soaked by rainwater.

But it didn't turn into a mushy mess; it was clearly wrapped very thickly.

"What is this?"

Lin Qingxue didn't say anything, but simply peeled back the paper layer by layer.

Until the last layer of white tissue paper was torn off.

A black key was revealed.

Chen Jianji's furrowed brows hadn't even had time to change.

His pupils contracted slightly.

He froze on the spot.

Lin Qingxue held the key in her palm, and the crumpled paper fluttered in the wind and water.

She rested her chin on Chen Jianji's shoulder and whispered.

"I spent 10,000 yuan of the 50,000 yuan on driving lessons and buying furniture for my home."

"The car will cost 30,000 yuan after it's fully equipped and filled with gas. There's also 6,000 yuan for the flatbed truck transportation fee. I'll use the rest for my daily expenses."

As Lin Qingxue spoke, her slender fingers pressed the unlock button on the car key.

Click!

A crisp sound rang in Chen Jianji's ears.

He slowly turned to the side.

He saw two car headlights flashing towards him through the layers of continuous rain beside him.

The spray from the torrential rain outlined the indistinct silver-white car body.

A car remained quietly in place.

It's like...

He was waiting for his long-lost master.
