Lin Sinian held up the umbrella, afraid that Si Jinyan would get wet, and didn't care whether his own shoulders were covered or not.
He probably can't reach the level of such an outstanding girl.
I'd be content just to quietly share an umbrella with her.
Lin Sinian himself didn't realize that the smile on his face was becoming more and more gentle.
Si Jinyan didn't pay attention to these things; she still needed to go back and call her master to find out about Huijue's situation.
He seemed somewhat absent-minded while walking.
A black Rolls-Royce was parked in the rain outside the detention center, and a man in a black suit was standing next to it.
Tall and slender with striking good looks.
He stood quietly in the rain, holding his black umbrella worth 100,000 yuan.
The pair of narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes under the umbrella suddenly lit up when they saw Si Jinyan.
However, a fleeting look of displeasure crossed his face when he saw her sharing an umbrella with a man.
But he is well-mannered and won't get angry.
He simply took a few long steps forward.
"Thank you for your help, Officer Lin."
They're all from wealthy families; who doesn't know who else?
Only when he heard that deep voice, tinged with displeasure, did Lin Sinian notice the man in front of him.
He suppressed his smile and exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master Xiao?"
"Um!"
Xiao Luoan reached out and pulled Si Jinyan under her umbrella, which was large enough to protect both of them.
Si Jinyan then realized that Xiao Luoan had come to pick her up, and she felt a warm glow in her heart, so she couldn't help but move closer to him.
A blush of joy appeared on her face.
"Capable people don't need to sacrifice themselves; they can achieve both. Only the weak sacrifice themselves!"
Xiao Luoan looked at the water stains on Lin Sinian's shoulder and suddenly said something.
Lin Sinian naturally understood what he was talking about, and his grip on the umbrella handle tightened involuntarily.
"Young Master Xiao is right."
With someone like Xiao Luoan by Si Jinyan's side, he has absolutely no chance.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but smile with relief. Anyway, I didn't plan to reveal my true feelings, so being hit on the head like this was actually quite nice.
It's just a bit too frustrating. To subdue the enemy without fighting, Xiao Luoan is truly admirable.
Goodbye, Officer Lin.
Si Jinyan naturally reached out and took Xiao Luoan's arm, while waving his other hand at Lin Sinian.
Goodbye, Master Si.
Lin Sinian felt a strange sense of loss. When he turned his head away, he kept breathing, as if he wanted to exhale all the disappointment in his heart.
But heartbreak isn't so easy to get over. Before his chances of finding love even blossomed, Xiao Luoan nipped it in the bud.
"You like Si Jinyan?"
Zhou Yichen, who had recovered, got out of bed and was preparing to return to the station.
As soon as I stepped outside, I saw Lin Sinian looking completely lost and dejected.
"Inspector Zhou? No, I don't like him."
Lin Sinian smiled awkwardly and quickly denied it.
Zhou Yichen's captivating eyes merely swept across his face, "It's all written on your face."
A casual remark made Lin Sinian blush instantly.
"Sigh, but Master Si's boyfriend is Young Master Xiao, and I'm just a lowly policeman, so forget it."
Losing to Xiao Luoan wasn't entirely unfair, but it was still painful to think about.
Zhou Yichen seemed to have heard something incredible. Xiao Luoan?
Is he attracted to women?
I'd heard before that he and his special assistant had a nickname: "No woman within three feet of him."
It seems that tomorrow night is the succession banquet for the Xiao family's heir.
As a public official, he is not allowed to have any other source of income.
However, as the eldest son of the Zhou family, he still had to participate.
His good-for-nothing younger brother is still working in the entertainment industry.
As the older brother, he entrusted the important business to his younger brother, so naturally he had to help him out.
"Miss Si is indeed charming. If I were ten years younger, I would also fall for a girl like her."
Zhou Yichen made no attempt to hide his admiration for Si Jinyan, but he was getting on in years.
Although he doesn't have anyone he likes right now, he would never make a move on a girl who is only eighteen or nineteen years old, more than ten years younger than him.
No, no, and Si Jinyan isn't exactly naive.
Zhou Yichen's consistent principle is to find a partner among people of the same age, with a difference of three to five years being acceptable.
It's not suitable for children over ten years old.
"Ah, Inspector?"
Lin Sinian didn't expect Zhou Yichen to be able to express his thoughts so decisively, which made him look like a coward.
"I already said if I were ten years younger."
Zhou Yichen smiled, then left with his umbrella.
Lin Sinian was left disheveled in the rain.
Is tomorrow the succession banquet for the Xiao family's heir?
Can he go too?
Lin Sinian thought about it and called his brother. He had been resting well these past two days and his energy had recovered a lot.
Grandpa might let my brother go, so he can go along under the guise of taking care of my brother.
Why did you decide to come here to find me?
Si Jinyan sat in the passenger seat, smiling as he looked at Xiao Luoan's handsome face.
He's so handsome.
She reaffirmed her good taste in men.
Xiao Luoan fastened the seatbelt for her, not knowing where this habit came from.
As soon as she got into the car, Xiao Luoan couldn't help but tie her belt.
“I know where you went, including when you came to the hotel to see me last night. I’m sorry I found out a little late.”
Xiao Luoan returned to the old house last night because someone didn't want him to take over smoothly.
