When he left the house, it was already 9 o'clock.
Xie Jingchuan drove her home. His face was gloomy and he did not say a word, his entire body giving off the feeling that no one else was allowed to enter.
Just a moment ago, he had been suppressing his emotions in front of the Xie Clan's parents, but now, it was completely out of his control.
Shi Wei sat in the back of the car and looked at him carefully.
To her, this kind of Xie Jingchuan was terrifyingly unfamiliar.
Shi Wei didn't even dare to sit in the front passenger seat. She was afraid that he would be angered by the sudden sight of Shi Xueman, so she sat in the back seat.
A long time ago.
The young master of the Xie Clan was famous for his gentleness. He smiled at anyone he spoke to, his thin lips curling into a smile that gave him the appearance of a man in the prime of his youth.
Who knew how many peach blossoms he had attracted.
But now.
That man with a good temper had long since disappeared and turned into Mr. Xie that was so cold that no one dared to approach.
"We're here."
Half an hour later, Xie Jiangchuan parked his car downstairs and spoke for the first time since di er.
It was still raining hard.
Almost as soon as he opened the door, rain began to fall.
Shi Wei held onto her umbrella and walked in front of Xie Jingchuan, the heavy rain quickly drenched her clothes, and her entire body shivered as she neared the window, "Jing Chuan."
She pursed her lips, seeming to be at a loss on what to say, "The rain is too heavy, so it's not easy to drive. You should first take a seat at my place. Wait for the rain to be lighter before leaving."
Xie Jingchuan did not speak.
Shi lowered her head slightly and said softly, "I have no other intentions, I just..." I'm afraid the rain is too heavy. If you drive like this, something will happen... I'm worried about you."
An accident.
Xie Jingchuan listened to her.
For some reason, these two words formed in his mind.
Didn't Song Youran like to play tricks?
Xie Jingchuan's eyes darkened.
He was not as good as she wanted him to be.
Rain began to fall.
Shi Wei was holding her umbrella which was almost blown away by the wind. She stood in front of the window with a weak and persistent look on her face.
A moment later.
Xie Jingchuan replied, "Okay."
It was raining heavily, so basically, no one was walking around in the district.
Shi Wei lived on the seventh floor. When she had just come back, Xie Jingchuan got someone to help her arrange the house. The environment was not bad and transportation was also convenient.
Two rooms and one living room.
Shi Wei was living alone and it seemed a bit empty. She didn't have anything to buy, so it was obvious that it had lost some of it's warmth.
Clean is clean.
It looked no different from a hotel where you could live with a bag.
It was unlike Song Youran, who wanted to move things into her house whenever she saw something she liked.
Xie Jingchuan was slightly startled.
Why did he think of Song Youran at this time?
Obviously, he didn't want to see that woman at all.
"Let's wipe off first."
She handed him a dry towel."Take a seat. I'll go change."
She turned on all the lights.
The smell in the room was strong.
Xie Jingchuan replied with a "En" as he dried his hands on the towel.
She carried the clothes into the bathroom.
Not long later.
The lights in the room flickered, and in the blink of an eye, the entire room was engulfed in darkness.
As the rain poured down, Xie Jingchuan stood by the window, watching the whole district become pitch black, and the lamps on the streets all turn black as well.
Ah!
Inside the bathroom, Shi Wei screamed out. After wearing her clothes, she stumbled and ran out, borrowing the brightness from the lightning to run to Xie Jingchuan's side, and hugged him tightly: "Jing Chuan, I'm so scared??"
Xie Jingchuan was slightly stiff.
His voice was calm as he pulled her hand away."It's fine. It's just that the power was cut."
Shi Wei unsteadily sat beside him and said, "Sorry, I didn't do it on purpose??"
"I just??"
Her voice was very gentle under the cover of the rain."I always felt that five years ago, when the power went out, you knew that I was afraid and would hug me."
Xie Jingchuan remained silent.
Shi Xiaoxiao approached him and placed her chin on his shoulder."Do you still remember how blissful we were back then? You said that you would always be with me??"
Her voice dropped, "I thought we would always be so happy. You would come home to accompany me when it rains and thunder, and I would wait for you at home every day. No matter how late it is, I would sleep with you and have a very cute child?? "Jing Chuan."
When Shi Wei came back to find Xie Jingchuan, he thought that everything would be the same as before.
After all, he hated Song Youran that much.
However, the reality was completely different from what she had imagined.
Xie Jingchuan arranged his life and work well, and even promised to do whatever she wanted, but he wouldn't get close to her again.
The change frightened her, and she was eager to repair the missing five years.
Heavy rain, dark night.
A couple who had been forced to separate for many years, plus sweet memories of the past.
Everything seemed like a godsend.
"I have tried to walk far away from you. I don't want to hear your news, and I don't want to think about how happy Song Youran is with you, but I can't do it, I can't leave you????" "Why is the world so unfair??"
She cried and kissed him.
But Xie Jingchuan didn't have any reaction.
To Shi Wei, his failure to reject was already the best reaction he could have.
"Jing Chuan."
Shi Wei threw herself into his arms while crying."I don't want the title of Mrs. Xie. No matter how others look at me, can we get back together?"
