Chapter 666: A Story in a Story Rainy Day

The tea restaurant was full of people and it was noisy and not suitable for conversation.

Several dishes were served on the table. Lin Yiyi only took two bites with chopsticks to taste them and stopped eating. She had something on her mind and was mainly helping the man opposite her to pick up some dishes.

"How is it? It tastes good."

Zhao Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said nothing. He glanced at her and then buried his head in picking vegetables and eating, wondering in his heart how long she could hold it in.

After finishing the meal, Lin Yiyi asked in a roundabout way, "…Are you still wearing that bracelet?"

Zhao Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Why? You want to go back?"

After being told so bluntly, Lin Yiyi was embarrassed to ask for it, and just smiled at him, "No, I just wanted to tell you to keep it well.

It keeps you safe but it cannot cause bloodshed.”

"Oh? Really?" Zhao Sheng was not superstitious, and he didn't believe this. He looked at her carefully with a cold face, "I killed chickens and fish a lot, nothing happened."

"..." Is he arguing? Who said it was chicken, duck, pig or fish?

Lin Yiyi bit her back teeth secretly, pretending to be gentle on the surface, "It's not like that. You know what I mean. It must not be easy for you to come to Hong Kong City. Now..."

"The bracelet is lost." Zhao Sheng didn't want to beat around the bush with her, so he interrupted her lies directly, "I'm done with dinner, I should go now."

"Lost? Where?"

Lin Yiyi panicked instantly and frowned as she asked, "Did you drop it accidentally?"

"I didn't know where I dropped it. When I found it, it was gone."

What Zhao Sheng said was the truth, but not all. The bracelet fell off and was found by him.

As if to make her give up, he rolled up his sleeves again, revealing his wrists, which were empty, with nothing on them.

Lin Yiyi's heart skipped a beat. She wanted to say something but had nothing to say. She sat back in her chair and muttered, "If it falls off, it falls off..."

The bracelet no longer belongs to her after it is given away, so it shouldn’t matter if it is lost.

She suddenly felt that the zipper of her sportswear was a little tight around her neck, and her breathing was a little difficult. She pulled down the zipper to reveal a well-washed shirt underneath.

Zhao Sheng recognized it at a glance. It was the one he bought for her last year. She was still wearing it. His heart, which had been hard all morning, softened again.

The resentment that had accumulated for many days seemed to dissipate completely in this glance.

It seemed that she was not living as well as he thought.

The young women on the street, whether rich or poor, are not as simple as her. They have bare earlobes, no bright silk scarves or headbands on their heads, and the bags they carry are also hand-sewn cloth bags.

Lin Yiyi sat for a while, finished the lemon tea in her cup, and called the waiter to settle the bill.

The weather was fine just now, but it suddenly changed during a meal, becoming gloomy and looking like it was going to rain.

"I'm leaving now."

Without waiting for the man's answer, she just smiled to herself, jokingly trying to ease the awkwardness.

"It's going to rain, and my shoes will get wet."

After leaving the tea restaurant, the two went in different directions.

One in the north and one in the south, still the same as before, one in the north and one in the south.

Zhao Sheng never bowed his head, so naturally he would not look back, let alone say anything to keep her.

After Lin Yiyi asked what she wanted to know, she had to rush back to finish her afternoon work, so her steps were hurried.

The rain started to fall in drizzles, and then suddenly it started to fall heavily.

From this moment on, the clouds and rain dispersed and gradually moved to both ends.

......

After changing two trains, the rain still continued.

Wet clothes sticking to the body are extremely uncomfortable, and rubber shoes with worn soles will still let water in even after being repaired twice.

Lin Yiyi felt annoyed at the thought of having to walk in the rain for another ten minutes.

After getting off the bus, she didn't run. She was already soaked, so she just walked back in the rain.

But before he had taken a few steps, an umbrella appeared above his head. Lin Yiyi was surprised by his appearance and asked in a very unexpected tone, "Why are you here?"

"I'll pick you up." Ding Li held an umbrella above her head and switched on another umbrella with one hand to help her block the wind.

Lin Yiyi didn't want to get Ding Li's clothes wet, so she tucked her arms in and tried not to get close to him. She looked a little embarrassed but her eyes were full of joy.

"But how did you know it was this time? It's such a coincidence."

Ding Li was actually feeling extremely jealous, thinking that she and the man in the tea restaurant might be relatives from the north.

He knew that now was not the time to say those words, so he just pretended to be relaxed and said, "I just know it, it's just such a coincidence, let's go and go home first."

Lin Yiyi smiled and nodded. She had just felt sorry for herself, but now that someone came to pick her up, all her self-pity was nothing.

He held the umbrella for her and half of his shoulder was wet.

And because he walked slowly, he became the same as her.

There is not a dry spot on my body.

The man's slightly curly chestnut hair was wet, looking a little funny, just like instant noodles being shaken out of water, and from time to time one or two raindrops bounced and hit her face.

Lin Yiyi endured it for a long time, and finally when she reached the door, she couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.

"What's wrong?" Ding Li couldn't figure out why she suddenly laughed so happily. He shrugged and looked at her with his lips pursed.

At the gate of Ding’s house, the people holding two crooked umbrellas did not go in, but stood there, looking at each other and smiling.

The gatekeeper looked at the open door, then looked at the young master and the future young mistress, and said only one word: "You are crazy."

I'm not afraid of catching a cold even in such heavy rain.

…

Bedroom on the second floor.

Ding Li came out of the guest room after taking a hot shower. He sat by the bed in a bathrobe and waited for someone in the bathroom.

The words Lin Yiyi said at the gate just now were still echoing in my mind.

"Eli, let's try it."

Happiness came too suddenly. He had been with her for a year before he finally heard these words.

At noon, he didn't have a clear identity, so it was not easy for him to show up and ask about Lin Yiyi's private affairs. Now he is her legitimate fiancé. If he asks her, will she tell him?

Will you be angry that he cares too much?

He had actually seen the black-faced man before. He was new to the branch.

He and Lin Yiyi both came from the north, so it seemed like they knew each other, but what was the relationship that made her so warm to him?

Ding Li tried his best to think of the two as relatives or acquaintances. After all, Lin Yiyi had never picked up food for him.

Lin Yiyi took a comfortable hot shower and couldn't help but sigh that the facilities in the western-style building were good. She was wearing the "children's clothes" prepared by Ding Li, but the size was still a little inappropriate.

Ding Li had been waiting for a long time when she came out of the bathroom.

She had her long, smooth hair loose and was wearing a black pullover and sports shorts that she had worn in middle school. Although they were clearly men's clothes, they looked indescribably beautiful and stunning on Lin Yiyi, making her look even more delicate and vulnerable.

"Did you finish washing?"

"Yeah." Lin Yiyi hummed dryly, but didn't sit next to him. She always felt that the atmosphere of a single man and a single woman sitting on the bed and talking was not right.

"Yiyi, are you serious about what you just said?"

"Why? Do you regret it?"

"No, I'm just afraid that you'll regret it." Ding Li didn't give her a chance to regret it, and made the decision on his own, "Since you agreed in person, I will be your fiancé from now on."

"..." Fiancé? Why does he want to get married so much?

Don’t you know that marriage is the grave of love?

Lin Yiyi wanted to laugh, so she pretended to be serious and said, "We agreed beforehand that we should keep our relationship private and not show it in public."

"We will make long-term arrangements when everything is right for us."

From the moment she said she agreed, Ding Li had already thought about when to get married. Now there are still 10 months to December, so he wants to try to get engaged as soon as possible.

Otherwise, your zodiac year will be delayed for another year.

Lin Yiyi didn't wait for him to speak, but only waited for the man to hold her hand and hug her.

Rough yet gentle, she just happened to be pulled to sit on his lap.

For some reason, she felt something was wrong. How could the polite man suddenly become a different person?

Ding Li was still smiling. It was the second time he hugged her, but it seemed like he had practiced it countless times. Her waist was so thin that it was not even wide enough for his arms to wrap around it.

"Yiyi, didn't you just ask me why it was such a coincidence? Actually, I saw you having dinner with your friends at a tea restaurant."

He privately defined that no matter what kind of relationship they were, they could only be friends. "I was afraid it would be inconvenient for you, so I didn't go over to bother you. When I got home, I found it was about to rain, so I went to the station to wait for you again."

So that's how it is. Why is he always so considerate? Lin Yiyi felt that it must have been her illusion just now.

I didn't want to mention these things to him, but he saw them all, so Lin Yiyi didn't hide anything.

Some parts were slightly modified and edited, and the word "steal" was changed to "borrow".
