Because of Jiang Yucheng's strong attitude, the police didn't even dare to contact Jiang Xuxu directly without going through Jiang Yucheng. Therefore, Jiang Xuxu didn't know that Lin Xiangdong and Guan Qishen came to the police and insisted on seeing her.
After leaving the accident scene, they dealt with Ling Zhenzhen's matter on the way, and the car soon stopped in front of Jiang's house.
I don't know when it started to drizzle.
Ever since Jiang Xuxu's live broadcast praying for rain accidentally brought about a rainstorm, the weather in Hai City seemed to have returned to normal, and it rained several times since then.
Chu Beihe sat in the back seat of the car without moving.
Generally in this situation, the driver will get out of the car immediately, open the door with an umbrella, and escort the person out of the car safely and securely, ensuring that the people in the back seat will not get wet by a drop of rain.
Not only Chu Beihe thought so, Jiang Xuxu also thought so.
The assistant in the driver's seat got out of the car quickly and took two black umbrellas from the trunk. However, he did not walk to Jiang Xuxu's door immediately. Instead, he walked to Chu Beihe's side and opened the door. The assistant gestured respectfully,
"Mr. Chu."
Chu Beihe felt somewhat puzzled by his assistant's behavior and saw him winking at him. Seeing that he didn't understand, he pointed to the other umbrella in his hand.
Chu Beihe seemed to understand something vaguely, so he got out of the car and took the umbrella from his assistant. Then, under the assistant's earnest gaze, he opened the umbrella, walked to the other door, and personally took Jiang Xuxu out of the car.
It’s really not his fault that he doesn’t have this awareness, mainly because there was no need for him to do such things in the past.
He is usually the one who gets picked up.
Although Jiang Xuxu was a little surprised when Chu Beihe personally picked her up in the car, she didn't say anything. She just felt that Chu Beihe's obsessive-compulsive disorder was really severe, and he took it so seriously even when he was acting.
Many times, Jiang Xuxu had the feeling that the two of them were actually dating.
She carefully pressed down the witch's hat, lifted her skirt and got out of the car, and the two of them stood under an umbrella.
Suddenly, she was reminded of the time when he came to pick her up from the set of Youth in All Its Glory.
The distance was too close, so close that she seemed to be enveloped by his golden light.
Jiang Xuxu wanted to say something, but Chu Beihe suddenly took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the rain mist off the ends of her hair.
"It's wet," he said.
Jiang Xuxu looked down and saw that her wig was too fluffy. Even though the umbrella was big enough, after standing in the rain for a while, her hair was still covered with a layer of mist.
She waved her hands and just said, "It's okay, it's a wig."
Since it's fake, it doesn't matter if it gets wet.
Upon hearing this, Chu Beihe looked at her, his eyes inexplicably appearing even deeper under the reflection of the golden light.
“Even if it’s fake, it should be taken seriously.”
His voice was restrained yet casual. He was clearly talking about wigs, but it seemed like he was talking about something else.
Jiang Xuxu noticed the subtlety in the air and when she met his gaze, she inexplicably felt a little guilty.
“…You are right.”
Chu Beihe seemed satisfied and handed the umbrella to her.
Jiang Xuxu took the umbrella and Chu Beihe got back into the car.
Until the car drove away again, Jiang Xuxu still didn't understand what the subtle feeling just now was.
It was not until she returned to her room, changed out of her witch costume and removed her makeup that she saw a photo in the group chat.
That was the photo Jiang Su had just taken from a distance in the garden.
In the photo, she and Chu Beihe are standing under an umbrella. The dim street lights shine through the rain, illuminating the figures of the two people beautifully and warmly. In the hazy rain and fog, the two figures standing opposite each other under the umbrellas reveal a hint of romance.
Jiang Xuxu looked at the photo, a little stunned.
Although they had been photographed standing under the same umbrella before, she only thought the rumor maker was ridiculous and did not pay much attention to the photo itself.
But it turns out... when she and Chu Beihe stood together, was this how others saw her?
Jiang Su kept bragging in the group because he took a beautiful photo.
Jiang Su: [You just said never?! Is it okay for me to post on Weibo?]
Jiang Su: [Please call me the God of atmosphere! ]
Xue Ningyu: [Forget about posting on Weibo. Xuxu's witch look tonight just became a hot topic. If you post this photo, isn't that an official announcement for her? ]
Jiang Huai: [God, have your end-of-month test results for this month come out? ]
Jiang Yutong: [God, have you finished your homework today? Why are you strolling in the garden when it’s raining?]
Jiang Su: […I’m asleep, don’t cue me.]
After a few more jokes, the atmosphere became unexpectedly harmonious.
Jiang Xuxu hesitated and typed in the group chat box.
[When Chu Beihe and I stand together, do we look like a real couple? 】
After thinking about it, I removed the word "real" from the word "real couple".
After thinking about it again, I deleted the whole sentence.
Forget it, I won’t ask.
…
Here, Jiang Xuxu put down his phone and put all his worries behind him. On the other side, Jiang Cheng, sitting in the back seat of the car, also saw the message in the group.
When I saw the photo posted by Jiang Sufa, I curled my lips.
It’s not that I have any objection to Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe dating.
The whole family, even Old Lady Jiang, may have various opinions about Jiang Xuxu, but they would never have any opinions about her "boyfriend".
The same goes for him.
He is simply allergic to love.
As he was watching, a message alert rang on his phone. It was a message from Zhou Yaya, mainly thanking him for showing her the world tonight.
Zhou Yaya: […I left early tonight, which wasted your kindness, but thank you for taking me out to play.]
Zhou Yaya: [I got the clothes you prepared for me dirty. I will wash them and return them to you later.]
Jiang Cheng was originally a little suspicious of Zhou Yaya because of what happened tonight, but when he saw the message she sent, he couldn't help but subconsciously think more about her.
Did she leave early tonight because her clothes were dirty?
But why did the clothes get dirty for no reason?
Did someone bully her at the party?
It’s no wonder Jiang Cheng thought too much, mainly because that’s how it’s played out in TV dramas.
A commoner girl was taken to a high-class dance by a rich young man. As a result, someone bullied the girl behind the rich young man's back, and the girl had no choice but to swallow her anger.
Although Jiang Cheng did not have any thoughts in that regard about Zhou Yaya, perhaps because the impression he left when they first met was too deep, he always felt that Zhou Yaya was the one being bullied.
All of a sudden, the doubts I had about her disappeared, and I sent a message to comfort her. While I was sending the message, suddenly, the driver braked suddenly.
Jiang Cheng dropped the phone in his hand, and his face suddenly looked unhappy.
"What's going on?"
The driver quickly explained, "Mr. Cheng, it's none of my business. It was a woman who suddenly ran out from the front."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng looked up and saw a woman in a red dress standing in front of the car. She didn't have an umbrella with her, her body was a little wet from the rain, and her long hair hung in wisps in front of her.
She crossed her arms and looked at Jiang Cheng through the windshield pitifully.
…
Rainy night, red dress, woman.
Jiang Cheng's first reaction was——
Shit, he saw a ghost!
